“How happy your people must be, how happy these servants of yours who are always here attending you and get to hear your wisdom!”

When we serve Adonai, people will notice and see the good He is doing through you and want to be part of it!

“This has come from Adonai, and in our eyes it is amazing.”
Psalm 118:23 CJB

Are we looking to see the amazing things that Adonai is doing or are we looking to the disasters of the world?

“Stop dwelling on past events and brooding over times gone by; I am doing something new; it’s springing up-can’t you see it? I am making a road in the desert, rivers in the wasteland, for My chosen people to drink, the people I formed for myself, so that they would proclaim My praise.”

Have a blessed day glorifying Adonai!

“All the work of Shlomo was organized in this way from the day ground was broken for the house of Adonai until everything has been accomplished, and the house of Adonai has been completed.”

“For God is not a God of unruliness but of shalom. As in all the congregations of God’s people.”

Do we look to see how good Adonai is and the great things He is doing? Or do we look at all the negative and rotten things the world is doing?

“Give thanks to Adonai; for He is good, for His grace continues forever.”
1 Chronicles 16:34 CJB

Things are always going to be better when we are seeking God’s glory!

“My mouth is full of praise for You, filled with Your glory all day long.”

What is your mouth full of, God’s glory and praise, or the complaints and vileness of the World?
Let our mouths be full of His praises!

“But now I have chosen Yerushalayim, so that My name can be there; and I have chosen David to be over My people Israel.”
2 Chronicles 6:6 CJB

I love the fact that God shows us throughout scripture that Jerusalem and Israel are His, it is a people (Jewish people) and a geographic location (Israel)! The good news is we are “Grafted In” because of the grace of God!

“Great is Adonai and greatly to be praised, in the city of our God, His holy mountain, beautiful in its elevation, the joy of all the earth, Mount Tziyon, in the far north, the city of the great king.”

What a great reminder for us, we are chosen by God to be part of His chosen people and nation, by His amazing grace!
Have a blessed day knowing you are part of God’s Kingdom!

“There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets Moshe put there at Horev, when Adonai made the covenant with the people of Israel at the time of their leaving Egypt.”
2 Chronicles 5:10 CJB

Interesting. God saves Israel from Egypt(the world), then gives them His perfect commands on how to live! Same for us. He saves us from the world and gives us His perfect instructions on how to live! How?

“I treasure Your word in my heart, so that I won’t sin against You.”

Have a blessed day following Him!
