Careful of what you hear

“But you, what you do is whitewash with lies; you are all witch doctors!”
Job 13:4 CJB

Love what Job is saying here to his friends. What do you know? Then he calls them a bunch of witch doctors, basically snake oil salesmen! We see the same today from politicians, scientists and unfortunately some ministry leaders, filling our heads with a bunch of useless information!

“”I wish you would just stay silent; for you, that would be wisdom!”
Job 13:5 CJB

What Job is saying here is if you want to look wise, just shut up! That is some good advice for all of us, it would be better to just be quiet!

“If He examines you, will it go well? Can you deceive Him, as one man deceives another?”
Job 13:9 CJB

Understand, we can’t get away with anything with God, so why try? Today, let’s all be careful of what we say and do, knowing the LORD knows and sees all! Let’s also be careful of what we listen to.
Have a blessed day in Him!

Stand with the LORD

“The purpose is that you should enter into the covenant of Adonai your God and into His oath which Adonai your God is making with you today, so that He can establish you today for Himself as a people, and so that for you He will be God-as He said to you and as He swore to your ancestors, to Avraham, Yitzchak and Yakov.”
Deuteronomy 29:11-12 CJB

Our purpose in life is to stand with God no matter where we go! We all need to be careful of compromising our walks with the LORD by justifying things of the world!

“But I am making this covenant and this oath only with you. Rather, I am making it both with Him who is standing here with us today before Adonai our God and also with him who is not here with us today.”
Deuteronomy 29:13-14 CJB

These words aren’t only for the people of old, but they are for us today also! Realize, there is so much misinformation and misleading out there, that everything we say and do needs to go through the filter of the LORD’S word!

“Make me hear of Your love in the morning, because I rely on You. Make me know the way I should walk because I entrust myself to You.”
Psalm 143:8 CJB

Today, it’s so important for us to walk in the ways of the LORD, doing life His way!
Have a blessed day standing in the LORD.
Shabbat Shalom.

Call on the LORD

“Anyone who calls on God, and He answers him, becomes a laughingstock to his friends-they make fun of an innocent, blameless man.”
Job 12:4 CJB

Many of us deal with this all the time, it’s nothing new. Because we believe in God, we call on the LORD and He answers us through His word and people ridicule us!

“Even if I pass through death-dark ravines, I will fear no disaster; for you are with me; Your rod and staff reassure me.”
Psalm 23:4 CJB

When we hold dear to the LORD, He will always lead us and have His hand upon us!

“With God are wisdom and power; He has [good] counsel and understanding.”
Job 12:13 CJB

Today, don’t worry about the world and its attacks against us! Remember, the LORD is always with us and has us covered! Everything is gonna work out according to His plans.
May your day be blessed!
Shabbat Shalom!

Stick to the facts

“Can you penetrate God’s depths? Can you find out Shaddai’s (Almighty’s) limits?”
Job 11:7 CJB

The answer to both is no! But God can reveal to us what He desires us to see and know, when we simply just seek Him!

“They’re as high as heaven; what can you do? They’re deeper than Sh’ol; what can you know?”
Job 11:8 CJB

What we can know for sure is that the LORD loves us and desires us to be protected and covered under His wings! Often times we want to know every detail, but we need to understand God will reveal things in His timing, not ours.

“How precious, God, is Your grace! People take refuge in the shadow of Your wings.”
Psalm 36:7 CJB

Today, with all the craziness going on in the world around us. The smartest and wisest thing we can do is seek the LORD, be under His wings and let Him penetrate our hearts! Be careful of blurting out opinions, just wait for facts that God reveals!
Have a blessed day in Him.
