Even youths will become weak and tired, and young men will fall in exhaustion. But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint. — Isaiah 40:30-31 (NLT) The Eternal is the source of my strength and the shield that guards me. When I learn to rest and truly trust Him, He sends His help. This is why my heart is singing! I open my mouth to praise Him, and thankfulness rises as song. (Psalms 28:7 VOICE) Oh, the joys of those who trust the LORD, who have no confidence in the proud or in those who worship idols. (Psalms 40:4 NLT) You who [reverently] fear the LORD, trust in the LORD; He is our help and our shield. (See Psalms 115:11 AMP) As we rest in His Presence and trust Yahweh, He will lead us and give us the strength to go and accomplish what He has called us to. I can do all things [which He has called me to do] through Him who strengthens and empowers me [to fulfill His purpo...

“O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly; My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, in a dry and weary land where there is no water. Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, my lips will praise You.”  — Psalms 63:1, 3 (NASB1995)  “I will praise you as long as I live, lifting up my hands to you in prayer. You satisfy me more than the richest feast. I will praise you with songs of joy.”  — Psalms 63:4-5 (NLT) The lovingkindnesses of Yahweh indeed never cease, for His compassions never fail. (Lamentations 3:22 LSB) They are certainly better than life itself. “…With my whole being, body and soul, I will shout joyfully to the living God.” (See Psalms 84:2 NLT) For He is a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness. He loves us with an everlasting love, and He draws us to Himself with lovingkindness. Even Yahweh, the God of hosts, Yahweh is His name of remembrance. Therefore, return to your God, keep lovingkindness an...

He Reigns!

“Yet Yahweh is never shaken — he is still found in his temple of holiness, reigning as King Yahweh over all. He closely watches and examines everything man does. With a glance, his eyes examine every heart, for his heavenly rule will prevail over all.” — Psalms 11:4 (TPT)  It's His will that shall be done, not ours. So set your heart and your soul to seek the LORD your God. Second Chronicles 12:14 (NKJV) says King Rehoboam did evil, because he did not prepare his heart to seek the LORD. Let us follow King David’s advice to Solomon in 1 Chronicles 28:9 (NKJV), to know God and to serve Him with a loyal heart and with a willing mind. For the LORD searches all hearts and understands all the intent of the thoughts. If you seek Him, He will be found by you. The LORD shall preserve you from all evil; He shall preserve your soul. The LORD shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth, and even forevermore. (Psalms 121:7-8 NKJV) “. ..remember this: Yahweh is the Rig...

He has brought down princes from their thrones and exalted the humble.” (Luke 1:49-52 NLT) The LORD is my strength and my shield; My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped;
 Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, and with my song I will praise Him. (Psalms 28:7 NKJV) Be glad in Yahweh and rejoice, you righteous ones; And shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart.

Never Fail

“For the word of God will never fail.” — Luke 1:37 (NLT) When the angel gave Mary the word of the LORD, she replied, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; may it be done to me according to your word.” (See Luke 1:38 AMP) Mary displayed a trust in God and a willingness to yield to His will. As followers of Christ, may we trust God and yield to His will, His Word and His ways. When we stand on the Word of God, we are standing on solid ground. Forever, O LORD, Your word is settled in heaven. (Psalms 119:89 NKJV) In Isaiah 55:10-11 (NKJV), Yahweh says: “For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and do not return there, but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.”

For the LORD God is a sun and shield; The LORD bestows grace and favor and honor;
 No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly. O LORD of hosts,
 how blessed and greatly favored is the man who trusts in You [believing in You, relying on You, and committing himself to You with confident hope and expectation]. — Psalms 84:11-12 (AMP) Oh, fear the LORD, you His saints! There is no want to those who fear Him. The young lions lack and suffer hunger; But those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing. (Psalms 34:9-10 NKJV) How blessed is the man who has made Yahweh his trust, and has not turned to the proud, nor to those who stray into falsehood. (Psalms 40:4 LSB)  And those who know Your name will put their trust in You, for You, O Yahweh, have not forsaken those who seek You. (Psalms 9:10 LSB) For it is You who blesses the righteous man, O LORD, You surround him with favor as with a shield. (Psalms 5:12 NASB1995) And Your favor lasts a lifetime! (See Psalms 30:...

More Worship & Less Worry

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. — Philippians 4:6-7 (NLT) Cast your burden upon Yahweh and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken. (Psalms 55:22 LSB) What we give our attention to magnifies. Let us spend more time praising our great GOD than we do talking about what the enemy is doing. Proverbs 19:21 (NLT) says: You can make many plans, but the LORD’s purpose will prevail. No matter what the enemy is planning the battle still belongs to Yahweh and Yeshua has already won the victory. O magnify Yahweh with me, and let us exalt His name together. (Psalms 34:3 LSB) He will keep in perfect peace all who trust in Him, all whose thoughts are fixed on Him! (See Isaiah 26:3 NLT)
