David said, No one but the L’vi’im(Levites) should carry the ark of God, because Adonai chose them to carry the ark of Adonai and serve Him forever.”
1 Chronicles 15:2 CJB

This time David moved the ark God’s way and not his own! Things always go better when we follow the directives of God!

“How happy is everyone who fears Adonai, who lives by His ways.”
Psalm 128:1 CJB

What we should fear is doing life our own way, which leads to big messes! We need to do life God’s way, which is always filled with joy and blessings!

“Blessed is the man who trusts in Adonai; Adonai will be his security.”
Jeremiah 17:7 CJB

We really need to simply just listen and trust Adonai in everything!
Have a blessed day trusting Adonai!

“David consulted God again, but God told him, Don’t attack them! Turn away from them, and engaged them opposite the balsam trees.”
1 Chronicles 14:14 CJB

David could have said, here are the Philistines again and God said, previously go get them you’ll have victory! But David chooses wisely to consult God instead! God gave different instructions, which David followed!

“Commit your way to Adonai; trust in Him, and He will act.”
Psalm 37:5 CJB

Do we commit all our ways to Adonai? Or do we try to do things on our own? Often times the way God instructs us to do things is very different than our way of thinking, but His way will always be better!

“As high as the sky is above the earth are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.”
Isaiah 55:9 CJB

Our ways are always going to be filled with disasters and troubles, but doing things God’s way is always going to be the best!
Have a blessedly consulting God!

“That day, God frightened David; he asked, How can I bring the ark of God to me?”
1 Chronicles 13:12 CJB

The answer to this question is: we must ask God for His guidance before we make any kind of move! The problem is we try to do things our own way and when it fails we get upset or frightened!

“With my voice I call out to Adonai, and He answers me from His holy hill.”
Psalm 3:4 CJB

The good news is when we call on Adonai, He always answers. We just need to wait and listen of His answer! Don’t get impatient when He doesn’t answer in our time line!

“Adonai is alive! Blessed is my Rock! Exalted be the God of my salvation.”
Psalm 18:47 CJB verse 46 in other translations.

We need to remember we serve a living God who hears us and answers us. We just need to be patient, waiting to hear His voice!
Have an amazing day serving our living God!

“Indeed, reinforcements to assist David reached him daily, until there was a great army, like the army of God.”
1 Chronicles 12:23 CJB

Like David, we all need help. We all need assistance! Our best assistance is always going to be Adonai and those who love Him!

“My help comes from Adonai, the maker of Heaven and Earth.”
Psalm 121:2 CJB

Yes, all our help comes from Adonai, but He also puts people into our lives to assist us also! So don’t reject help, it may be from Adonai!

“They will fight against you, but they will not overcome you, for I am with you, says Adonai, to rescue you.”
Jeremiah 1:19 CJB

So no matter how bad things may look, remember God is with us and He always sends help to assist us! So be patient!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!
