Walk in His ways

“Such is the law for all kinds of tzaraat(leprous) sores, for a crusted area, for tzaraat in garment, for a house, for a swelling, for a scab and for a bright spot, to determine when it is clean and when it is unclean. this is the law concerning tzara`at.”
Leviticus 14:54-57 CJB

Understand that this isn’t just about keeping the law, it’s more to teach us to understand what is clean and unclean, what is right and what is wrong!

“If you love me, you will keep My commands.”
John 14:15 CJB

Andonai really wants and desires us to walk in His ways, knowing what and what not to do! When we live Gods way life is always going to be better!

“If you keep My commands, you will stay in My love-just as I have kept My Father’s commands and stay in His love.”
John 15:10 CJB

Today, don’t look at the Old Testament scriptures as burdensome, but instead as a way to see right and wrong and to walk in Gods ways!
Have a blessed day!

Elevate God

“Then the fire of Adonai fell. It consumed the burnt offering, the wood, the stones and the dust; and licked up the water in the trench.”
1 Kings 18:38 CJB

Adonai will always remove the obstacles that are in the way of Him doing His plans! We need to also, so we can elevate Adonia!

“When the people saw it, they fell on their faces and said, Adonai is God! Adonai is God!”
1 Kings 18:39 CJB

It’s always intresting when God removes obstacles and a miracle happens, people suddenly worship God! Sadly most go back to their old sinful ways.

“Eliyahu said to them, Seize the prophets of Ba’al! Don’t let one of them escape! They seized them; and Eliyahu brought them down to Vadi Kishon and killed them there.”
1 Kings 18:40 CJB

Today, as Adonai removes the obstacles that are in the way, we should do the same and remove the obstacles that get in the way of serving Him!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!

Rest

“On the seventh day the Cohen is to examine him again, and if the sore has faded and hasn’t spread on the skin, then the Cohen is to declare him clean-it is only a scab, so he is to wash his clothes and be clean.”
Leviticus 13:6 CJB

There are a few things we can see here! First: on the seventh day, seven is the number of completion. On the seventh day we rest!

“Remember the day, Shabbat (seventh), to set it apart for God.”
Exodus 20:8 CJB

God created the world in six days and rested on the seventh and so should we! When we are forgiven, we should rest in His salvation! The second things we can be reminded of is that we all have scars from the sins we’ve committed, not to dwell upon, but instead to remind us of how great Adonai is, and that He forgives!

“He has removed our sins from us as far as the east is from the west.”
Psalm 103:12 CJB

Today, let’s rejoice in the fact that we are made clean by the blood of Yeshua! So don’t dwell on the scars of our past! Instead let them remind us of how great our God is!
Have a blessed day resting in Adonai!
Shabbat Shalom!

Set apart

“For I am Adonai, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt to be your God. Therefore you are to be holy, because I am holy.”
Leviticus 11:45 CJB

Adonai really desires us to be holy and set apart from the world! We need to realize the world around is ordinary and worldly, we are a special generation that needs to be set apart for God!

“Understand that Adonai sets apart the godly person for Himself; Adonai will hear when I call to Him.”
Psalm 4:3 CJB

Adonai calls us His special and anointed people!

“They will be Mine, says Adonia-Tzva’ot, on the day when I compose my own special treasure. I will spare them as a man spares His own son who serves Him.”
Malachi 3:17 CJB

Today, what a good reminder that we are God’s special people set apart for Him! So let’s try to stay set apart for Adonai as we serve Him!
Have a blessed day!

Ambassadors for God

“Moshe said to Aharon, This is what Adonai said: Through those who are near Me I will be consecrated, and before all the people I will be glorified. Aharon kept silent.”
Leviticus 10:3 CJB

This was probably hard for Aharon to hear as his two sons were just burnt up by God. We all have to realize that we are all called by God so we can’t misrepresent Him, we need to do what He says!

“Even the cohanim, who are allowed to approach Adonai, must keep themselves holy; otherwise, Adonai may break out against them.”
Exodus 19:22 CJB

As we go out into our day, we need to remember we represent God to the unbelieving world. We are His ambassadors!

“But you are a chosen people, the King’s cohanim, a holy nation, a people for God to possess! Why? In order for you to declare the praises of the One who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light.”
1 Peter2:9 CJB

Today, remember we are God’s holy special people, so let’s be careful how we act and what we do!
Have a blessed day in Him!
