Step out

“Then Kefa called Him, LORD, if it is really You, tell me to come on the water.”
Matthew 14:28 CJB

We see here Peter stepping out in faith, trusting Adonai! Notice Peter, calls and asks before he steps out, not step then ask!

“Expect great things from God and attempt great things for God.”
William Carey

When God calls us out we need to step out!

“Come! He said. So Kefa got out of the boat and walked on the water toward Yeshua.”
Matthew 14:29 CJB

Understand, Peter, didn’t fail in walking on water! He only failed when he took his eyes off Yeshua! Walking on water is normal to God, walking in the ways of Adonai is abnormal for the world! Why? Because it takes faith and trust in Adonai to walk on water!

“For we live by trust, not by what we see.”
2 Corinthians 5:7 CJB

Like Peter, we are called out by Adonai to walk in places that may seem impossible for us to walk in! We just need to trust and believe God has a perfect amazing plan for us!
Have a blessed day trusting in Adonai!

Don’t fear rejection

“And they took offense at Him. But Yeshua said to them, The only place people don’t respect a prophet is in his home and in his own house.”
Matthew 13:57 CJB

One of the most discouraging things is when the people who know you or are part of our life, don’t receive Yeshua because they know your past or just reject God! Because God isn’t visible they instead take their anger out on you!

“He sounds a warning in their ears and orders them to repent of their evil.”
Job 36:10 CJB

There will always be people who are offended with Yeshua! What we need to do his stand with Adonai! Sharing the key to salvation is repenting!

He forgives all your offenses, He heals all your disease.”
Psalm 103:3 CJB

Understand people will reject God, we need to remember, just simply keep sharing!
Have a blessed day!

Rest

“For the Son of Man is LORD of Shabbat!”
Matthew 12:8 CJB

God has designed one day a week to be special, set apart from the rest! Why? So we can have a day without distractions to worship Him and Him alone! God doesn’t need a Shabbat, we do!

“Then He said to them, Shabbat was made for mankind, not mankind for Shabbat; So the Son of Man is LORD even of Shabbat.”
Mark 2:27 CJB

Adonai wants us to have a Sabbath day not to burden us, but instead to free us from our normal activities and to have a special day of rest in Him.

“My soul, return to Your rest! For Adonai has been generous toward you.”
Psalm 116:7 CJB

With all the crazy stuff going on in the world, we all can use some rest in Adonai and to reset ourselves from the crazy world around us! So rest in Adonai!
May your day be richly blessed in Adonai!
Shabbat Shalom!

Repent

“If you have ears, then hear!”
Matthew 11:15 CJB

In other words, God is saying I gave you two ears so you can hear! Hear what? REPENT, the Kingdom is near!

“Therefore, repent and turn to God, so that your sins may be erased.”
Acts 3:19 CJB

God, is willing to forgive if we will simply just repent! The problem is people are too busy talking and not listening!

“Now I call on you, God, for you will answer me. Turn your ear to me, hear my words.”
Psalm 17:6 CJB

Today, hear what God says and then respond to what God says!
Have a blessed day hearing from Adonai!
Shabbat Shalom!
