Devotions

“But the land could not support their living together, because their possessions were too great for them to remain together.”
Genesis 13:6 CJB

What did Lot and Avram get from Egypt (the World) possessions (stuff) that was consuming them! The focus was now becoming stuff not Adonai, so they quarreled, that’s what the world does!
This is what can and does happen to us also! What’s the solution? Adonai!

“Therefore Adonai says, ‘Go out from their midst; separate yourselves; don’t even touch what is unclean. Then I myself will receive you.”
2 Corinthians 6:17 CJB

We need to keep ourselves separate from the world as much as we possibly can! We need to be holy as Adonai has called us to be!

“Because you are a people set apart as holy for Adonai your God. Adonai your God has chosen you to be His own unique treasure out of all peoples on the face of the earth.”
Deuteronomy 14:2 CJB

Adonai, has called us to not be entangled in the world and all its foolishness, but instead be caught up in His holiness!
Have a blessed day being holy (separate from the world)!

“But Adonai inflicted great plagues on Pharaoh and his household because of Sarai Avram’s wife.”
Genesis 12:17 CJB

Even when we do make bad decisions and do stupid things, God still protects us!

“Rescue me, Adonai, from evil people, protect me from violent people.”
Psalm 140:1 CJB

So glad that Adonai does rescue us from evil, knowing that we are surrounded by evil! Being surrounded by evil often leads us to making dumb decisions!

“Hallelujah! Give thanks to Adonai, for He is good, for His grace continues forever.”
Psalm 106:1 CJB

What a blessing knowing God protects us from evil and our bad decisions!
May your day be richly blessed!

“The whole earth used the same language, the same words.”
Genesis 11:1 CJB

Just because we see agreement and unity, doesn’t always mean we are doing what is right! There was unity in Nazi Germany and the result was six million Jews dying, to name one example! We see it in our news media today with sayings like due process and constitutional crisis! What we need to be united in is Yeshua and His Salvation!

“I have said these things to you that, united with Me, you may have Shalom. In the world, you have tsuris (tribulation). But be brave! I have conquered the world!”
John 16:33 CJB

When we are united with Yeshua, we will always have Shalom, when we are united in the world we will have tribulation and conflict! The best thing we can do is drop all the worldly stuff and be united with Yeshua!

“Desist, and learn that I am God, supreme over the nations, supreme over the Earth.”
Psalm 46:10 CJB

Don’t fall into the trap of uniting yourself with political parties, social movements or environmental crisis! But, instead be united with Adonai and His movement!
May your day be richly blessed in union with Yeshua!

“These were the families of the sons of Noach, according to their generations, in their nations. From these the nations of the earth were divided up after the flood.”
Genesis 10:32 CJB

This speaks of the foundations of the World even today! Understand we all come from Adam who was created by God! Why is this important? Because we need to understand we are created by God for His good purposes!

“Furthermore, we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called in accordance with His purpose.”
Romans 8:28 CJB

Understand it’s not just His purpose, it’s His plan for our lives!

“For I know what plans I have in mind for you,’says Adonai,’plans for well-being, not for bad things; so that you can have hope and a future.”
Jeremiah 29:11 CJB

God has created us for His purpose and pleasure, He has a plan for us that was ordained from the beginning of time, He knows everything that will happen and we can take hope in that everything He does is for our well being!
Have a blessed day knowing He has a plan!
