“All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats.”

Matthew 25:32

No matter who you are, one day we will all come before the LORD!

“For it is written: AS I LIVE, SAYS THE LORD, EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW TO ME, AND EVERY TONGUE SHALL CONFESS TO GOD.”

Romans 14:11 also found in Isaiah 45:22-23

The LORD knows everything, He is aware of all situations, good or bad. What we need to do is look to Him, not the situation! And realize, we will all be gathered to Him, so we need to choose!

“No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.”

Matthew 6:24

Understand, if we serve the world and its systems, it will let us down, but when we serve the LORD and listen to His wisdom, He will separate us for Himself! Let’s choose the LORD today, and may your day be blessed as you do it!

“But his lord answered and said to him, You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed.”

Matthew 25:26

A couple of things to think about here. When we read about the ten virgins in first thirteen verses, five were ready and five were not. Then, in the next seventeen verses, we read of three servants who were given talents, two used and did good, but one took and hid! Realize, we all have been given the gift of salvation. Do we prepare for His return like the five virgins or do we put things off like the other five? Also, do we share (invest) about His good news of salvation like the two good servants?

“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.”

Matthew 15:16

We really need to be shining for the LORD, especially in this day and age! The age of shutdowns, walls and safe spaces! The only shut down we should be concerned with is when we take our last breathe here and have to give account to the LORD! It’s either going to be well done good and faithful servant or depart from me!

“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.”

1 Peter 2:9

Today, let’s all spend more time sharing about Jesus, and less time being busy trying to make kingdom now! Your wealth and health you can’t take with you, realize ten out of ten are going to die! Let’s talk about the LORD and share about His salvation!

Have a blessed day.

Shabbat Shalom!

“Why are your valiant men swept away? They did not stand Because the LORD drove them away.”

Jeremiah 46:15

We all have a number of different things that can come against us on any given day. Realize, they only stand or fall as the LORD allows them, and it’s always for our own good!

“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.”

Romans 8:28

The situation you’re in today is exactly where the LORD wants you! Whether it’s a person, place or thing that’s driving you mad. Remember, it only stands or falls if the LORD allows it to!

“Therefore I will look to the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation; My God will hear me.”

Micah 7:7

Today, look to the LORD, call upon Him and talk to Him about your situation. Don’t get caught up in the situation, but instead get caught up in the LORD, knowing it only stands or falls as He allows! Have a blessed day just keeping your eyes on the LORD!

“And Moses said to the people: Remember this day in which you went out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out of this place. No leavened bread shall be eaten.”

Exodus 13:3

Moses is telling the people to remember the victory the LORD has given them. He rescued them from the tight grips of bondage! The same goes for us, the LORD rescued us from the tight grips of bondage also! Even if you’re going through some difficulties now, remember the LORD saved you in the past, so just call out to Him and know He’ll do it again.

“But You have saved us from our enemies, And have put to shame those who hated us.”

Psalm 44:7

You may ask why does the LORD save us from one situation then allow another? I believe so we can see how dependent upon Him we are and to be a witness to the lost and encouragement to other believers!

“And you shall tell your son in that day, saying, This is done because of what the LORD did for me when I came up from Egypt.”

Exodus 13:8

What was done for Moses? God provided the Passover Lamb for the children of Israel, who applied the blood! The same goes for us we need to remind our children about Jesus our Passover Lamb. No matter how your day is going, good or bad, remember, Jesus got you out of bondage, and He’ll do it again, so let us all go out today sharing the fact that Jesus saves! Have a blessed day!

“So Pharaoh rose in the night, he, all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where there was not one dead.”

Exodus 12:30 NKJB

This is so true. Most everyone acknowledges God when tragedy hits! Unfortunately, it takes death to get arrogant, prideful and hardhearted people to at least acknowledge God! Not always in a good way though! What we need to do is look for the LORD in every situation.

“The LORD is good to all, And His tender mercies are over all His works.”

Psalm 145:9 NKJB

The LORD is aware of every situation, He see’s all and knows all! Even if things aren’t going right for you at the moment, understand the LORD is working it all out!

“But I tell you, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you! Then you will become children of your Father in heaven. For He makes His sun shine on good and bad people alike, and He sends rain to the righteous and the unrighteous alike.”

Matthew 5:44-45 CJB

Today, no matter what situation you are in good or bad, God sees all and knows all! Don’t wait for the tragic situation to happen (like godless people do) to acknowledge Him! Instead, look for Him in, every situation, good or bad, because He is there working out His perfect will for us! Have a blessed day knowing all things are going to work out, so just love the LORD!
