Focus on the LORD

“Then David went in, sat before Adonai and said, Who am I, Adonai, God, and what is my family, that has caused you to bring me this far?”
1 Chronicles 17:16 CJB

We, too, can ask this question to the LORD, who am I and how did we make it this far in life? Realize, the LORD has us and has a plan for us!

“He holds the depths of the earth in His hands; the mountain peaks, too, belong to Him.”
Psalm 95:4 CJB

As we ask the LORD questions about our families, destination and plans for us, know this: He has us and we are gonna be OK! So don’t focus on pandemics, civil unrest and finacial disaster, but focus on the LORD!

“For I know what plans I have in mind for you, says Adonai, plans for well-being, not for bad things; so that you can have hope and a future.”
Jeremiah 29:11 CJB

Today, as we wonder about a great many things, remember the LORD has us!
Have a blessed day in Him knowing He has you!

He does good deeds

“Give thanks to Adonai! Call on His name! Make His deeds known among the peoples.”
1 Chronicles 16:8 CJB

God has been moving and doing deeds in our past, in our present and in our future. He is always doing great deeds no matter how things may look!

“Sing to Adonai, all the earth! Proclaim His victory day after day!”
1 Chronicles 16:23 CJB

Know that the LORD has been doing great things and know He never stops! So let’s sing His praises and bless His name!

“I will sing to Adonai, because He gives me even more than I need.”
Psalm 13:6 CJB

The LORD is good even when we don’t see it, realize, He is doing great things! So let’s praise Him today!
Have a blessed day praising Him!

Seek Him day by day

“It’s because you weren’t there the first time that Adonai our God broke out against us. We didn’t seek Him according to the rule.”
1 Chronicles 15:13 CJB

Again we are continuing on with the fact that when we seek the LORD and listen life is always going to go better! Problems start to occur when we start seeking other peoples opinions first!

“Human being, you have already been told what is good, what Adonai demands of you-no more than to act justly, love grace and walk in purity with your God.”
Micah 6:8 CJB

When we don’t know what to do the best thing we can do is just keep going through the word of God! Don’t skip around the word looking for something that fits what you want, but instead just keep reading His word book by book, chapter by chapter and verse by verse!

“Many peoples will go and say, Come, let’s go up to the mountain of Adonai, to the house of the God of Ya’akov (Jacob)! He will teach us about His ways, and we will walk in His paths. For out of Zion will go forth Torah (instruction), the word of Adonai from Yerushalayim.”
Isaiah 2:3 CJB

Today, let’s do things the LORDS way the first time, be in His word, doing things in His order!
Have a blessed day!

Pray before you _____!

“David consulted God, asking, Should I attack the Philistines? Will you hand them over to me? Adonai; answered David, Attack; I will hand them over to you.”
1 Chronicles 14:10 CJB

Like David here we need to consult the LORD, before we do anything and then wait for His answer!

“Put your hope in Adonai, be strong, and let your heart take courage! Yes, put your hope in Adonai!”
1 Chronicles 27:14 CJB

Life is full of choices left or right, up or down, stay or go? What we need to do is be in God’s word, praying about everything and then waiting for the LORD to answer! We all need to be careful of doing things without the LORD, even commenting on social media!

“Your word is a lamp for my foot and light on my path.”
Psalm 119:105 CJB

Today, let’s be careful on what we say and how we act, but be prayerful before we do anything!
Have a blessed day in Him!

Seek the LORD

“David consulted with the commanders of thousands and of hundreds-with every leader.”
1 Chronicles 13:1 CJB

Here we see David consult with everyone but the LORD, and we know how the rest of this story works out! Uzza reaches out his hand to steady the ark and the LORD kills him!

“Seek Adonai while He is available, call on Him while He is still nearby.”
Isaiah 55:6 CJB

When we look to man, often times we get the wrong answer, misleading directions, leading us to foolish decisions! When we seek the LORD, we will never be let down!

“For here is what Adonai says to the house of Israel: If you seek me, you will survive.”
Amaos 5:4 CJB

Today, let’s seek the LORD and His word for everything, because He will never let us down!
Have a blessed day in Him!
