“In the past, God overlooked such ignorance; but now He is commanding all people everywhere to turn to Him from their sins.”
Acts 17:30 CJB

God at one time overlooked ignorance, but now that we have His Word that is full of His instructions we have no excuse to be blind or ignorant about his will!

“I treasure Your Word in my heart, so that I won’t sin against You.”
Psalm 119:11 CJB

The more we pour scripture into our lives the more we won’t be ignorant of His commands and directions!

“Guide my footsteps by Your word; don’t let any kind of sin rule me.”
Psalm 119:130 CJB

God is light and He will always illuminate our path, as we walk closer towards Him!

“When they came to the frontier of Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia; but the Spirit of Yeshua would not let them.”
Acts 16:7 CJB

We need to be led by the Spirit on when to go, where to go and what to do! When we do our own thing we end up with disasters! We end up with Ismael’s!

“Fools suppose their way is straight, but the wise pay attention to advice.”
Proverbs 12:15 CJB

As believers we need to be logical! What is logical? Doing life the way God desires us to do it, following His Word and walking in His ways!

“In turn Adonai is agreeing today that you are His own unique treasure, as He promised you; that you are to observe all His mitzvot (commands).”
Deuteronomy 26:18 CJB

How amazing that God has called us His own special people! He saved us from total destruction! So with that let’s look to Him for direction, protection and yes even correction, by following His Words and Commands!
Have a blessed day walking with Him!

“After this, I will return; and I will rebuild the fallen tent of David. I will rebuild its ruins, I will restore it, so that the rest of mankind may seek the lord, that is, all the Goyim (Gentiles) who have been called by My name, says Adonai, who is doing these things. All this has been known for ages.”
Acts 15:16-18 CJB originally Amos 9:11-12

God always intended for all people to come to Him and be saved! He chose the Jewish people to be the light and lead the way! We can say they blew it, but that is a foolish way of thinking! Why? Yeshua came through the Jewish people, the Apostles were Jewish and the scriptures we read are yes, Jewish! We just need to do our part!

“I, Adonai, called you righteously, I took hold of you by the hand, I shaped you and made you a covenant for the people, to be a light for the Goyim, so that you can open blind eyes, free the prisoners from confinement, those living in darkness from the dungeon.”
Isaiah 42:6-7 CJB

What we see happening here is that the Apostles are acknowledging what they need to do, share the Good News of Salvation! See people get saved and then invite them to study the Word of God and eventually His word will sink in to their hearts, so they can walk in His ways!

“For from the earliest times, Moshe has had in every city those who proclaim Him, with His Words being read in the Synagogues every Shabbat.”
Acts 15:21 CJB

Understand, what we need to do is lead people to Salvation through Yeshua and allow His Word to direct and correct their lives!
Have a blessed day in Yeshua

“But as the Talmidim gathered around him, he got up and went back into the town. the next day, he left with Bar-Abba (Barnabas) for Derbe.”
Acts 14:20 CJB

Whether Paul was stoned to death and came back to life or the ones who stoned just assumed he was dead isn’t the real point here! The real point is he came back to finish the work God had started through him! So often we start something for Adonai and give up when se get stoned by something or someone (we hit a road block)!

“And I am sure of this: that the One who began a good work among you will keep it growing until it is completed on the Day of the Messiah Yeshua.”
Philippians 1:6 CJB

Just like Yeshua who is going to finish the great work He started in us, we also need to finish the great work He is doing through us!

“I thank You because I am awesomely made, wonderfully; your works are wonders-I know this very well.”
Psalm 139:14 CJB

How amazing is this, we are perfectly and wonderfully made! Designed by God Himself to do His mighty works, so even if we hit a wall (life’s roadblocks) don’t give up until all things are completed!
Have a blessed day completing the works of God!
