Focus on godly things

“Then you will succeed, if you take care to obey the laws and rulings that Adonai ordered Moshe concerning Israel. Be strong, be bold; don’t be afraid or become discouraged!”
1 Chronicles 22:13 CJB

We will always do well when we do things the LORD’S way!

“As high as the sky is above the earth are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
Isaiah 55:9 CJB

Be careful when you’re afraid or discouraged, that’s when we start looking to foolish things or worldly things for quick fixes or answers! Our first “go to” should always be the LORD!

“Seek Adonai and His strength; always seek His presence.”
Psalm 105:4 CJB

Today, don’t focus on fearful things and discouraging things, but, instead focus on the LORD!
Have a blessed day!

His mercy

“David said to Gad, This is very hard for me. Let me fall into the hand of Adonai, because his mercies are very great, rather than have me fall into the hand of man.”
1 Chronicles 21:13 CJB

We should always desire to fall into the hands of the LORD, not the hands of men! Because in the hands of the LORD we will always be better off!

“He has not treated us as our sins deserve or paid us back for our offenses, because His mercy toward those who fear Him is as far above earth as heaven.”
Psalm 103:10-11 CJB

Even when we blow it, we can always count on the fact when we confess, His mercies will always come through!

“Give thanks to Adonai, for He is good, for His grace continues forever.”
Psalm 136:1 CJB

Today, no matter what is happening, know that we are always gonna be better off falling into the mercies of the LORD!
Have a blessed day!

“But may those who delight in my righteousness shout for joy and be glad! Let them say always, How great is Adonai, who delights in the peace of His servant.”

Psalm 35:27 CJB

Walk away from conflict

“When he mocked Israel, Y’honatan (Jonathan) the son of Shima David’s brother killed him.”
1 Chronicles 20:7 CJB

As believers we will always have those who mock us and ridicule us. The best way to stop them(kill their speech) is to ignore them and move on!

“But You, Adonai, laugh at them, You mock all nations.”
Psalm 59:8 CJB

We don’t need to confront people, realize, the LORD has it all covered!

“But if the people of a house or town will not welcome you or listen to you, leave it and shake its dust from your feet!”
Matthew 10:14 CJB

Today, with all the things going on around us what we need to do is stand firm, but also know when to walk away!
Have a blessed day standing in the LORD!

Take courage

“Take courage, and let’s be strong for the sake of our people and the cities of our God. May Adonai do what seems good to him.”
1 Chronicles 19:13 CJB

What a good word for us today, take courage and be strong! We may feel like we have our backs up against the wall with no where to turn, but remember we have the LORD!

“Haven’t I ordered you, Be strong, be bold? So don’t be afraid or downhearted, because Adonai your God is with you wherever you go.”
Joshua 1:9 CJB

Today, with all the craziness going on in the world around us, remember, we have the LORD and He really is in control! We always have to keep in mind we have an enemy trying to conquer and divide. So stay strong in the LORD and know that He is with you!

“Give thanks to Adonai; for He is good, for His grace continues forever.”
Psalm 107:9 CJB

Let’s not look at the issues of the world, but instead let’s look to the beauty of the LORD!
Have a blessed day.
