“Hear a just cause, Adonai, heed my cry; listen to my prayer from honest lips.”
Psalm 17:1 CJB

This Psalm was written by David, probably when Saul was out to get him! So we see when we are backed up against the wall, like David was, we find our prayers are honest and sincere! We pray honest, direct prayers when the trials are real!

“Adonai is close to all who call on Him, to all who sincerely call on Him.”
Psalm 145:18 CJB

I believe God allows trials to happen to us, not to punish us, but to put us in a place to draw closer unto Him!

“Come close to God, and He will come close to you. Clean your hands, sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded people!”
James 4:8 CJB

Today, no matter how tough things may be, we will always be better off drawing closer to God!
Have a blessed day!

“Protect me, God, for you are my refuge.”
Psalm 16:1 CJB

God is and should be our everything! He protects us and He is our refuge!

“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.”
Psalm 46:1 CJB

The world around us is rapidly getting out of control! We now, more than ever, need God! The world desperately needs God!

“Don’t be afraid, for I am with you; don’t be distressed, for I am your God. I give you strength, I give you help, I support you with My victorious right hand.”
Isaiah 41:10 CJB

Today, know that God is our refuge, shield and our strength, not our genie in a bottle, but He is everything we really need! It is all God and God alone!
Have a blessed day in Him!

“Adonai, who can rest in Your tent? Who can live on Your holy mountain?”
Psalm 15:1 CJB

The answer is really no one can! But as we read on we’ll see how God plans it!

“Those who live a blameless life, who behave uprightly, who speak truth from their hearts and keep their tongue from slander; who never do harm to others or seek to discredit neighbors; who look with scorn on the vile, but honor those who fear Adonai; who hold to an oath, no matter the cost; who refuse usury when they lend money and refuse a bribe to damage the innocent. Those who do these things never will be moved.”
Psalm 15:2-5 CJB

This is near impossible to do on our own, but when we are united with Yeshua then it is possible! When we are walking and talking with Adonai then His hearts desires become ours!

“Also we have come to know and trust the love that God has for us. God is love; and those who remain in this love remain united with God, and God remains united with them.”
1 John 4:16 CJB

Today, the best way to live is to emerge ourselves in Adonai and wash ourselves daily in His word, not just hearing it but doing it also!
Have a blessed day in Adonai!

“Adonai spoke to Moshe on Mount Sinai; He said.”
Leviticus 25:1 CJB

God is always speaking to us from His Holy Mountain in heaven and He is always telling us to observe and keep His statutes!

“Exalt Adonai our God, bow down toward His holy mountain, for Adonai our God is holy!”
Psalm 99:9 CJB

We need to bow down and listen to what God is saying and realize He isn’t saying get rich, be a political activist or judge others! What He is saying is listen to His statutes and do them!

“Don’t deceive yourselves by only hearing what the Word says, but do it!”
James 1:22 CJB

Today, let us look to God, hear what He says and then do it!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!

“Fools say in their hearts, There is no God. They deal corruptly, their deeds are vile, not one does what is right.”
Psalm 14:1 CJB

This is the world we live in now! Corrupt, vile and wicked denying God at every chance! What do we do? We shine for Adonai!

“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

We need to be people who are tasty and shiny for Adonai! Don’t blend in but stand out for Yeshua!

“Proclaim with me the greatness of Adonai; let us exalt His name together.”
Psalm 34:3 CJB

Today, things may look gloomy, but we have the Light of the world in our hearts! So let’s shine!
Have a blessed day shining!
Shabbat Shalom!
