Live for the LORD

“This is what the people of Israel did-they did everything that Adonai had ordered Moshe.”
Numbers 1:54 CJB

How amazing this would be if all God’s people did what the LORD says, we’d all be better off! The problem we all have is we get way too distracted!

“Sh’ma, Yisra’el! Adonai Eloheinu, Adonai echad [ Hear, Isarael! Adonai our God, Adonai is one]; and you are to love Adonai your God with all your heart, all your being and all your resources.”
Deuteronomy 6:4-5 CJB

Just like the world around Moses lived in, it was filled with a multiple of false gods, and so is the world around us today! We have celebrities, politicians, athletes and the screens hanging in our living rooms, to name a few things!

“If you love Me, you will keep My commands and I will ask the Father, and He will give you another comforting Counselor like Me, the Spirit of Truth, to be with you forever.”
John 14:15-16 CJB

Today, we may be living in the wilderness of the world, but we don’t need to partake of it!
Have a blessed day loving the LORD!
Shabbat Shalom!

Things will work out!

“We know that until now, the whole creation has been groaning as with the pains of childbirth; and not only it, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we continue waiting eagerly to be made sons-that is, to have our whole bodies redeemed and set free.”
Romans 8:22-23 CJB

We are groaning, creation is groaning as we see how messed up things are around us! We have financial problems, health problems and civil problems, to name a few things.

“My soul, why are you downcast? Why are you groaning inside me? Hope in God, since I will praise Him again for being my Savior and God.”
Psalm 43:5 CJB

When we see the things that are happening around us, we can get depressed, distressed and fall into despair. That’s when we really need to look to the LORD, putting all our hope in Him!

“Furthermore, we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called in accordance with His purpose.”
Romans 8:28 CJB

Today, no matter how bad things look, realize God knows what’s going on and it will all work out perfectly according to His plans!
Have a blessed day!
Shabbat Shalom!

Do you know you’re saved

“What a miserable creature I am! Who will rescue me from this body for death?”
Romans 7:24 CJB

In all reality we are miserable with out Yeshua and He is the only one who can rescue us and give us peace!

“Rise up, Adonai! Save me, my God! For you slap all my enemies in the face, you smash the teeth of the wicked.”
Psalm 3:7 CJB

What an amazing thing the LORD did. He rose up and saved us! All we have to do is call upon Him!

“But I will call on God, and Adonai will save me.”
Psalm 55:16 CJB

Today, we may be in sin, in distress or just miserable! Remember, all we have to do is call upon the LORD!
Have a blessed day knowing we are saved!

Are you saved

“For what one earns from sin is death; but eternal life is what one receives as a free gift from God, in union with Messiah Yeshua, our LORD.”
Romans 6:23 CJB

If we continue in sin we will be doomed! But when we are living for Yeshua we will live in peace! Sin might be fun for a season, but it always turns into a disaster!

“My eyes are always directed toward Adonai, for He will free my feet from the net.”
Psalm 25:15 CJB

The LORD has freed us from death and destruction when we did the simple thing of repenting and He does the rest!

“I will rejoice and be glad in Your grace, for You see my affliction, You know how distressed I am.”
Psalm 31:7 CJB

Today, let’s know we are saved and rejoice in that and don’t be distressed by the world around us!
Have a blessed day in the LORD!

Our hope is in the LORD

“But not only that, let us also boast in our troubles; because we know that trouble produces endurance, endurance produces character, and character produces hope; and this hope does not let us down, because God’s love for us has already been poured out in our hearts through the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) who has been given to us.”
Romans 5:3-5 CJB

This can be a hard thing to hear that we should boast in tribulation! But, with that said, troubles always makes us stronger and builds our faith in the LORD giving us hope!

“Be strong, and fill your hearts with courage, all of you who hope in Adonai.”
Psalm 31:24 CJB

When we lose hope we can fall into despair! So what we need to understand, trials and tribulations should help us to focus and look to the LORD for all our help!

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

Today, realize, the LORD allows tribulation to happen to strengthen us in Him!
Have a blessed day placing our hope in the LORD!
