Arise!

Image
…“Arise, bless the LORD your God forever and ever! O may Your glorious name be blessed and exalted above all blessing and praise! You alone are the LORD. You have made the heavens, the heaven of heavens with all their host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them. You give life to all of them and the heavenly host bows down before You. — Nehemiah 9:5-6 (NASB1995) “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of Yahweh has risen upon you. (Isaiah 60:1) Yahweh does justice for the oppressed; He gives food to the hungry. Yahweh sets the prisoners free. Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind; Yahweh raises up those who are bowed down; Yahweh loves the righteous; (See Psalms 146:7-8 LSB) Because His lovingkindness is better than life, may our lips praise Him. (See Psalm 63:3) Come, let us worship and bow down, let us kneel before Yahweh our Maker. — Psalms 95:6 (LSB)

Believe & Agree

Image
And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and give birth to a son, and you shall name Him Jesus . — Luke 1:30-31 (NASB) And Mary said, “Behold, the Lord’s bond-servant; may it be done to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her. (Luke 1:38) “And blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what had been spoken to her by the Lord.” (Luke 1:45) May we humbly come into agreement with God's will for our lives and daily follow the lead of His Holy Spirit. His plans for us are good. Let us believe and confidently trust in the Word of the LORD. May we give birth to those things God has conceived in our hearts. “For nothing will be impossible with God.” (Luke 1:37) He watches over His word to perform it. (See Jeremiah 1:12) In Isaiah 55:11 (NASB), He says: “So will My word be which goes out of My mouth; It will not return to Me empty, without accomplishing what I

The Work of His Hand

Image
But now, O Yahweh, You are our Father; We are the clay, and You our potter; And all of us are the work of Your hand. — Isaiah 64:8 (LSB) Knowing that our heavenly Father loves us and the plans He has for us are good, let us be soft and pliable in His hand. Yield to His will and respond to His touch with a willing heart. …humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, (1 Peter 5:6 NASB1995). Just as making a beautiful creation out of a lump of clay is a process, so is the work Yahweh is doing in each one of us. Even in difficult times we are being shaped and molded to fulfill the plans and purposes He has for us. It may not always look pretty, but He has made everything beautiful in its time. (See Ecclesiastes 3:11 NKJV). On the contrary, who are you, O man, who answers [arrogantly] back to God and dares to defy Him? Will the thing which is formed say to him who formed it, “Why have you made me like this?” Does the potter not have the right ove

Choose Peace

Image
Peace I leave with you; My [perfect] peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid. [Let My perfect peace calm you in every circumstance and give you courage and strength for every challenge.] — John 14:27 (AMP) The peace that Yeshua gives us is a gift. We can choose to receive it or we can allow the enemy to steal it away by getting caught up in fear and anxiety. The peace we have in Yeshua is an abiding peace. It will outlast any storm. Instead of letting your heart be troubled, trust God. Nothing is too difficult for Him. (See Jeremiah 32:17 NASB1995) Be courageous and stay calm, no matter how chaotic the situation. “For the mountains may be removed and the hills may shake, but My lovingkindness will not be removed from you, and My covenant of peace will not be shaken,” says the LORD who has compassion on you. — Isaiah 54:10 (NASB1995)

Rejoice!

Image
Rejoice in the Lord always [delight, take pleasure in Him]; again I will say, rejoice! — Philippians 4:4 (AMP) James 1:2-4 (NLT) says: “Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.” Our joy is not to be based on the fluctuating circumstances of our lives. We experience fullness of joy in the Presence of Yahweh and He is always with us. No matter what season of life you are going through, have continual and contagious joy. Let your joy overflow and spill out onto those around you. Don’t be dejected and sad, for the joy of the LORD is your strength!” (See Nehemiah 8:10 NLT) We also pray that you will be strengthened with all his glorious power so you will have all the endurance and patience you need. May you be filled with joy, always

Don't be Surprised

Image
Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal which is taking place to test you [that is, to test the quality of your faith], as though something strange or unusual were happening to you.  — 1 Peter 4:12 (AMP) Romans 8:37 (NKJV) says: Yet in all these things we are  more than conquerors  through Him who loved us. Since we are conquerors, we have to go through some things in order to overcome them. Though we experience every kind of pressure, we’re not crushed. At times we don’t know what to do, but quitting is not an option. (2 Corinthians 4:8 TPT) So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, (2 Corinthians 4:16-17 ESV) After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace [who imparts His blessing and favor], who called you to His own eternal glory in Christ, will Himself complete, confirm, strengthen, an

Arise & Build

Image
Then I said to them, “You see the bad situation we are in, that Jerusalem is desolate and its gates burned by fire. Come, let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem so that we will no longer be a reproach.” I told them how the hand of my God had been favorable to me and also about the king’s words which he had spoken to me. Then they said, “Let us arise and build.” So they put their hands to the good work. — Nehemiah 2:17-18 (NASB1995) When Nehemiah heard about the broken down condition of Jerusalem and the survivors being in great distress, he wept and mourned, but he also fasted and prayed before the God of heaven. (See Nehemiah 1:3-4) In Nehemiah 2:4, when the king asked Nehemiah what was his request, Nehemiah prayed before he responded. (See Nehemiah 2:4) And the king granted him all that he requested because the good hand of his God was on him (See Nehemiah 2:8) Throughout the rebuilding of the wall, Nehemiah continually prayed to God when dealing with their enemies. In Nehemiah 4:20,

Prepare Your Heart

Image
For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the Law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach statutes and ordinances in Israel. — Ezra 7:10 (NKJV) May we prepare our hearts and set our minds to diligently read and study the Word of God. Then, apply it to our daily lives by actually doing what it says. Great peace have those who love the law of the LORD, and nothing causes them to stumble. (See Psalms 119:165 NKJV) As pressure and stress bear down on you, find joy in His commands. (See Psalms 119:143 NLT) Psalms 78:8 (NKJV) says, its a stubborn and rebellious generation, that did not set its heart aright, and whose spirit was not faithful to God. Blessed and favored by God are those who keep His testimonies, and who [consistently] seek Him and long for Him with all their heart. (Psalms 119:2 AMP) Deal bountifully with Your servant, that I may live and keep Your word. With my whole heart I have sought You; Oh, let me not wander from Your commandments! This is my comfort in my affliction, for

He Delivers

Image
“ Now in the twelfth month, that is, the month of Adar, on the thirteenth day, the time came for the king’s command and his decree to be executed. On the day that the enemies of the Jews had hoped to overpower them, the opposite occurred, in that the Jews themselves overpowered those who hated them. ” — Esther 9:1 (NKJV) Haman sought to destroy Mordecai and all the Jews. (See Esther 3:6) In the end, they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai, and later they also hanged Haman’s ten sons. (See Esther 7:10 & 9:14) While the first decree called to destroy, to kill and to annihilate all the Jews, the king’s following decree gave the Jews in every city authority to unite to defend their lives. (See Esther 3:13 & 8:11) And in every province and city, wherever the king’s command and decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a holiday. Then many of the people of the land became Jews, because fear of the Jews fell upon them. (Esther 8:17) No matter h

Be Empowered

Image
In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [draw your strength from Him and be empowered through your union with Him] and in the power of His [boundless] might. — Ephesians 6:10 (AMP) Our strength comes from our union with Yeshua. Apart from Him we can do nothing. (See John 15:5) Christ lives in us. Let us abide in Him. He empowers us to be all that our heavenly Father created us to be. Galatians 2:20 (NKJV) says: I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. Yeshua brings healing and wholeness into our lives. Psalms 107:19-20 (NKJV) says: Then  they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He saved them out of their distresses. He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.

Be Rooted

Image
“ I am sent to announce a new season of Yahweh’s grace and a time of God’s recompense on his enemies, to comfort all who are in sorrow, to strengthen those crushed by despair who mourn in Zion— to give them a beautiful bouquet in the place of ashes, the oil of bliss instead of tears, and the mantle of joyous praise instead of the spirit of heaviness. Because of this, they will be known as Mighty Oaks of Righteousness, planted by Yahweh as a living display of his glory. ” — Isaiah 61:2-3 (TPT) Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. (Ephesians 1:4 NLT) Therefore as you received Messiah Yeshua as Lord, so continue to walk in Him— rooted and built up in Him and established in your faith just as you were taught, overflowing with thankfulness. (Colossians 2:6-7 TLV) Those who are planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God. — Psalm 92:13 (NKJV)

Our Hiding Place

Image
Therefore, let everyone who is godly pray to You in a time when You may be found;
 Surely in a flood of great waters they will not reach him. You are my hiding place; You preserve me from trouble; You surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah. — Psalms 32:6-7 (NASB1995) Rejoice in hope, persevere in tribulation, and be devoted to prayer (continual communication with our heavenly Father) (See Romans 12:12)  He is our hiding place and our shield; wait for His word. (See Psalms 119:114) …the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen and protect you from the evil one. (2 Thessalonians 3:3 NASB1995)  It is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper and from the deadly pestilence. (See Psalms 91:3) Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but he who trusts in Yahweh, lovingkindness shall surround him. Be glad in Yahweh and rejoice, you righteous ones; And shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart. (Psalms 32:10-11 LSB)

Seat Yourself

Image
She had a sister named Mary, who seated herself at the Lord’s feet and was continually listening to His teaching. — Luke 10:39 (AMP) The Passion Translation says, Mary sat down attentively before the Master, absorbing every revelation he shared. May we consistently seat ourselves at the Lord’s feet (a posture of humility) and listen attentively to His teaching, absorbing His Words into our hearts. In John 16:33 (TPT) Jesus said: “And everything I’ve taught you is so that the peace which is in me will be in you and will give you great confidence as you rest in me. For in this unbelieving world you will experience trouble and sorrows, but you must be courageous, for I have conquered the world!” Instead of being worried and bothered and anxious about so many things, frantically running around trying to accomplish things in your own strength, be still and know that He is God. Cast all your cares and concerns upon Him for He cares for you. Our mighty God is over all things. He will lead yo

Examine Yourself

Image
Thus says the LORD of hosts, “Consider your ways and thoughtfully reflect on your conduct! — Haggai 1:7 (AMP) The Word of God instructs us to examine ourselves. In Matthew 7:5 (NASB1995), Jesus says: “…first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.” Galatians 6:4 (NASB1995) says, each one must examine his own work… First Corinthians 11:28 says: a man must examine himself before partaking of communion. Don’t let the world woo you into following their wicked ways. Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! (Isaiah 5:20 NASB1995) Let us ensure that our words and actions are in alignment with the Holy Scriptures. We are to reflect the loving, and compassionate nature of our heavenly Father, at all times. Test and evaluate yourselves to see whether you are in the faith and living your lives as [committed] be

Seek the LORD

Image
“But from there you will seek the LORD your God, and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul.” — Deuteronomy 4:29 (NASB1995) From wherever you are today, seek Yahweh. The LORD is good to all, and His mercies are over all His works. (Psalms 145:9 NASB1995) The LORD sustains all who fall and raises up all who are bowed down. (Psalms 145:14 NASB1995) The LORD is righteous in all His ways and kind in all His deeds. The LORD is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth.” (Psalms 145:17-18 NASB1995)

Be Determined

Image
But Daniel was determined not to defile himself by eating the food and wine given to them by the king. He asked the chief of staff for permission not to eat these unacceptable foods.  — Daniel 1:8 (NLT) May we be determined not to defile ourselves, but to be holy (set apart) and dedicated to God. Know for certain that no immoral, indecent, or greedy person—who is really an idol worshipper at heart—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Messiah and God. (Ephesians 5:5 TLV) You shall be holy, for the LORD our God is holy. …you were washed [by the atoning sacrifice of Christ], you were sanctified [set apart for God, and made holy], you were justified [declared free of guilt] in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the [Holy] Spirit of our God [the source of the believer’s new life and changed behavior]. (See 1 Corinthians 6:11 AMP)

Don't Worry

Image
Jesus taught his disciples, saying, “Listen to me. Never let anxiety enter your hearts. Never worry about any of your needs, such as food or clothing. For your life is infinitely more than just the food you eat or the clothing you wear.” — Luke 12:22-23 (TPT) “Does worry add anything to your life? Can it add one more year, or even one day? So if worrying adds nothing, but actually subtracts from your life, why would you worry about God’s care of you?” (Luke 12:25-26 TPT) “I repeat: Don’t let worry enter your life. Live above the anxious cares about your personal needs. People everywhere seem to worry about making a living, but your heavenly Father knows your every need and will take care of you.” (Luke 12:29-30 TPT) Trust in, and rely on our great and mighty God, Who cares for you. Let us strive for and actively seek His kingdom, and He will supply our needs. (Luke 12:31 AMP/TPT) for the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking [what one likes], but of righteousness and P

He Reigns

Image
“ I kept looking in the night visions, and behold, with the clouds of heaven One like a Son of Man was coming, and He came up to the Ancient of Days and was presented before Him. And to Him was given dominion, glory and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations and men of every language might serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion which will not pass away; And His kingdom is one which will not be destroyed .” — Daniel 7:13-14 (NASB1995) Many are saying, “Who will show us any good?” Lift up the light of Your countenance upon us, O LORD! You have put gladness in my heart, more than when their grain and new wine abound. In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for You alone, O LORD, make me to dwell in safety. (Psalm 4:6-8) The LORD reigns, let the earth rejoice; Let the many islands be glad. (Psalms 97:1) Now to the One who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to present you blameless before the presence of His glory with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Yeshu

Trust God

Image
Then the king gave orders, and Daniel was brought in and cast into the lions’ den. The king spoke and said to Daniel, “Your God whom you constantly serve will Himself deliver you.” — Daniel 6:21-23 (NASB1995) It was evident even to a pagan king that Daniel constantly served God. What a great witness and testimony! Nonetheless, Daniel was cast into the lions’ den for a night because he continued to kneel and pray and give thanks to his God, three times a day, after it had been forbidden by the king’s injunction. (See Daniel 6:10-12) At the break of day, the king went in haste to the lions’ den and found Daniel still among the living. Then Daniel spoke to the king, “O king, live forever! My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths and they have not harmed me, inasmuch as I was found innocent before Him; and also toward you, O king, I have committed no crime.” Then the king was very pleased and gave orders for Daniel to be taken up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the d

He Is Able

Image
“If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the furnace of blazing fire; and He will deliver us out of your hand, O king. But even if He does not, let it be known to you, O king, that we are not going to serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up.” — Daniel 3:17-18 (NASB1995) Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego chose to be cast into the midst of a furnace of blazing fire rather than to bow down and worship the golden image that king Nebuchadnezzar had set up. They were absolutely confident that Yahweh was able to rescue them. No matter how hot the fiery trial becomes or how high the floodwaters rise, let us be fully persuaded that our awesome and mighty God is able to deliver us. Many hardships and perplexing circumstances confront the righteous, but the LORD rescues him from them all. (Psalms 34:19 AMP) Refuse to serve any other false god or idol. Yahweh is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King. At His wrath the earth quakes,

Call on The Name

Image
And it will be that everyone who calls on the name of Yahweh will be delivered; For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be those who escape, as Yahweh has said, even among the survivors whom Yahweh calls. — Joel 2:32 (LSB) Call on the name of the LORD, with a sincere heart. He is faithful to answer. In Jeremiah 29:12 (NASB1995) the LORD says: “Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.” God shows no favoritism. (See Acts 10:34 NLT) For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him; for “Whoever will call on the name of the LORD will be saved.” (Romans 10:12-13 NASB1995) Amen. To You I shall offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving, and call upon the name of Yahweh. — Psalms 116:17 (LSB)

He Leads

Image
Good and upright is the LORD; Therefore He instructs sinners in the way. He leads the humble in justice, and He teaches the humble His way. All the paths of the LORD are lovingkindness and truth to those who keep His covenant and His testimonies. — Psalms 25:8-10 (NASB1995) God will lead us, but we must choose to follow Him. The LORD will instruct us. Let our hearts be humble and our minds be open to receive. Inquire of Yahweh and His strength; Seek His face continually. (Psalms 105:4 LSB) Make me know Your ways, O Yahweh; Teach me Your paths. Lead me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; In You I hope all the day. Indeed, none of those who wait for You will be ashamed;  (Psalms 25:5,3a LSB)

Focus Your Eyes

Image
Therefore, since we have such a great cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also get rid of every weight and entangling sin. Let us run with endurance the race set before us, focusing on Yeshua, the initiator and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before Him, He endured the cross, disregarding its shame; and He has taken His seat at the right hand of the throne of God. — Hebrews 12:1-2 (TLV) Too often we get focused on the problem, instead of the answer to all of our problems, our Savior. Hebrews 12:2 (AMP) tells us to look away from all that will distract us and focus our eyes on Jesus. With the myriad of distractions around us, we have to be intentional about keeping our eyes on Yeshua, the author and finisher of our faith. Instead of focusing on social media or what others say about you, focus on what God, your Creator, says about you. He knows you better than anyone. Fix your eyes on Yeshua, and run the race set before you with passion and persistence. The Lord will empower yo

Draw Near

Image
But now in Messiah Yeshua, you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of the Messiah. — Ephesians 2:13 (TLV) The call of God is always for us to come closer to Him. The nearness of God is for our good. When we wander away from Yahweh we make ourselves vulnerable to the attacks of the enemy. Draw near and abide in Him. Make the Lord GOD your refuge, and tell of all His wonderful works. (See Psalms 73:28) Dwell in the shelter of the Most High and abide in the shadow of the Almighty. For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper and from the deadly pestilence. (See Psalms 91:1, 3 NASB1995) “ Move your heart closer and closer to God, and he will come even closer to you. But make sure you cleanse your life, you sinners, and keep your heart pure and stop doubting. ” — James (Jacob) 4:8 (TPT)

Life & Freedom

Image
 “ I am the Gateway. To enter through me is to experience life, freedom, and satisfaction. ” — John 10:9 (TPT) True life, freedom and satisfaction are found as we abide in Yeshua. In Him was life [and the power to bestow life], and the life was the Light of men. (John 1:4 AMP) Yeshua is the way, the truth, and the life! No one comes to the Father except through Him. (See John 14:6 TLV) He came that we may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows]. (See John 10:10 AMP) Yahweh anointed Him to bring good news to the afflicted; He was sent to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim release to captives and freedom to prisoners. (See Isaiah 61:1) Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. (Galatians 5:1 NKJV) Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover or pretext for evil, but [use it and live] as bond-servants of God. (1 Peter 2:15 AMP) Amen.

Goat vs. Sheep

Image
“ And as for you, my flock, this is what the Sovereign LORD says to his people: I will judge between one animal of the flock and another, separating the sheep from the goats. ” — Ezekiel 34:17 (NLT) The first thing to notice about this Scripture is that Yahweh is talking to His people, not the world, but those He calls His own. Judgment will begin at the house of God; (See 1 Peter 4:17). Then it says, He will separate the sheep from the goats. Goats are stubborn and butt things (make excuses). Sheep follow the Good Shepherd with humble hearts and are willing to obey. Are you a goat or a sheep? Matthew 25:32-34 (NASB) says: And all the nations will be gathered before Him; and He will separate them from one another, just as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats; and He will put the sheep on His right, but the goats on the left. “Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the

Hear & Heed

Image
“They come to you as people come and sit before you as My people and hear your words, but they do not do them, for they do the lustful desires expressed by their mouth, and their heart goes after their greedy gain.” — Ezekiel 33:31 (LSB) The scattered remnants of Israel living among the ruined cities went to hear the word of the LORD from the prophet Ezekiel for entertainment. They heard the word but they had no intention of doing as the LORD instructed. (See Ezekiel 33:24,32 NLT) In Matthew 7:26-27 (NASB1995) Yeshua says: “Everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and it fell—and great was its fall.” However He says: “…everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against tha

Commit & Trust

Image
Trust [confidently] in Him at all times, O people; Pour out your heart before Him. God is a refuge for us. Selah. — Psalms 62:8 (AMP) Let everyone who is godly pray to Yahweh at a time when He may be found. (See Psalms 32:6) He pardons all our iniquities. He heals all our diseases. He redeems our lives from the pit, and crowns us with lovingkindness and compassion. (See Psalm 103:3-4) Our everlasting God is good and faithful. Regardless of your current circumstances, keep pressing on with Him. Commit your way to Yahweh, trust in Him, and He will do it. (Psalm 37:5 LSB) As for me, I shall call upon God, and Yahweh will save me. Evening and morning and at noon, I will bring my complaint and moan, and He will hear my voice. — Psalms 55:16-17 (LSB)

Gain New Strength

Image
But those who wait for the LORD [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] will gain new strength and renew their power; They will lift up their wings [and rise up close to God] like eagles [rising toward the sun]; They will run and not become weary, they will walk and not grow tired. — Isaiah 40:31 (AMP) Gain new strength as you draw near to Yahweh and be still in His Presence. Pour out your petitions to Him and wait expectantly for His answer. Our mighty God is able. He will establish and strengthen you. In Isaiah 41:10 (AMP), the LORD says: ’Do not fear [anything], for I am with you; Do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, be assured I will help you; I will certainly take hold of you with My righteous right hand [a hand of justice, of power, of victory, of salvation].’  May He grant you out of the riches of His glory, to be strengthened and spiritually energized with power through His Spirit in your inner self, [indwelling your innermost being and personality] (Eph

He Will Come Again

Image
Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen. “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” — Revelation 1:7-8 (NKJV) In John 14:3 Yeshua said: “…if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.” Our King and Savior will come again. Do not be among those who have no hope. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words. (1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 NKJV) “Behold, I am coming soon, and My reward is with Me, to

Our Stustainer

Image
Every single moment you are thinking of me! How precious and wonderful to consider that you cherish me constantly in your every thought! O God, your desires toward me are more than the grains of sand on every shore! When I awake each morning, you’re still with me. — Psalms 139:17-18 (TPT) When you woke up today, Yahweh was still with you. He is a very present help in trouble. (See Psalms 46:1) He is the initiator and sustainer of our lives. Our heavenly Father has not forgotten about you for one second. He formed your innermost being, shaping your delicate inside and your intricate outside, and wove them all together in your mother’s womb. (See Psalms 139:13 TPT) Psalms 71:6 (NASB1995) says: By You I have been sustained from my birth; You are He who took me from my mother’s womb; My praise is continually of You. Psalms 54:4 (NASB1995) says: Behold, God is my helper; The Lord is the sustainer of my soul. Before you were born, the number of days He planned for you were already recorded
