“No, you are not to defile the land in which you live and in which I live; for I, Adonai, live among the people of Israel.”

Numbers 35:34 CJB

Realize no matter where we are the LORD dwells with us and among us, so we need to be very careful and mindful of what we do!

“I will put my Spirit inside you and cause you to live by My laws, respect My rulings and obey them.”

The LORD has put His Spirit in us which means He is with us at every moment, that should be a little sobering!

“Don’t you know that you people are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you?”

“Drive out the inhabitants of the land, and live in it, for I have given the land to you to possess.”

Numbers 33:53 CJB

What a cool thought all the obstacles, problems and situations in front of us are nothing for the LORD. The LORD has given us life and all we have to do is step forward and walk in it!

“I have said these things to you so that, united with Me, you may have shalom(Peace). In the world, you have tsuris(tribulation). But be brave! I have conquered the world!”

John 16:33 CJB

If we let the situations around us consume us, we will always have a lack of peace. But, instead let us look to the LORD, knowing He has already made the way for us all we have to do is step out!

“Desist, and learn that I am God, supreme over the nations, supreme over the earth.”

Psalm 46:10 CJB

In other words just drop whatever is consuming you, just let it go and move forward with the LORD! Cling to the LORD and simply just follow after Him, remember, He has got a firm hold of you so just step out and take possession of the land in front of you!

Have a blessed day!

“The next day, having decided to leave the Galil, Yeshua found Philip and said, Follow Me!”

John 1:43 CJB

Yeshua (Jesus) found Philip and invited Philip to follow Him and he did! Are we? Or are we hiding from Jesus?

“Adonai, God, called to the man, Where are you? He answered, I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked, so I hid myself.”

Genesis 3:9-10 CJB

Do we hide from the LORD because we feel like we’ve blown it or we believe we are failures? Don’t fall into that trap, answer His call and follow hard after Him!

“You are to follow Adonai your God, fear Him, obey His mitzvot (commands), listen to what He says, serve Him and cling to Him.”

No matter what you think you’ve done, seek the LORD, follow Him and don’t let Him go! Have a blessed day and following hard after the LORD!

“In Him was life, and the life was the light of mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not suppressed it.”

John 1:4-5 CJB

“In the same way, let your light shine before people, so that they may see the good things you do and praise your Father in heaven.”

Matthew 5:16 CJB

There are enough dark and negative things going on in the world around us. The only light people might see is us reflecting the light of the LORD! So let’s be reflectors of His glory today!

“Arise, shine [Yerushalayim], for your light has come, the glory of Adonai has risen over you.”

Isaiah 60:1 CJB

Today, let’s arise and shine for the LORD, knowing His glory is upon us!

Have a amazingly blessed day!

Shabbat Shalom!

“Israel is set aside for Adonai, the first fruits of His harvest; all who devour Him will incur guilt; evil will befall them, says Adonai.”

Jeremiah 2:3 CJB

Just like Israel is set aside for the LORD, so are we because we are Grafted In and have accepted Jesus for who He is: LORD!

“But if some of the branches were broken off, and you-a wild olive-were grafted in among them and have become equal sharers in the rich root of the olive tree.”

Romans 11:17 CJB

Remember we are Grafted In to the rich God-anointed root Israel, we are not a replacement! As believers in Jesus we get to partake and share of the rich root of the olive tree (Israel) which God Himself has anointed!

“For you are a people set apart as holy for Adonai your God. Adonai your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be His own unique treasure.”

Today, know that you are chosen by the LORD as His special people. So let’s get out and share His love and how great He is!

Have a blessed day!
