Be On the Alert

Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. — 1 Peter 5:8 (NASB1995) Our enemy the devil is always seeking an opportune time to steal, to kill, and to destroy. (See John 10:10) So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clearheaded. (1 Thessalonians 5:6 NLT) Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. (Ephesians 6:11-12 NASB1995) Whatever your struggle, know that the battle belongs to Yahweh and He has given us the victory through our Lord, King Yeshua the Christ. (See 1 Corinthians 15:57) For everyone born of God is victorious and overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has conquered and overcome the world—our [c...

Dwell in the High & Holy Place

The high and lofty one who lives in eternity, the Holy One, says this:
“I live in the high and holy place with those whose spirits are contrite and humble. I restore the crushed spirit of the humble and revive the courage of those with repentant hearts. — Isaiah 57:15 (NLT) God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble. (See James 4:6) Let us humble ourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt us, in due time. (See James 4:10 & 1 Peter 5:6) May we dwell in the high and holy place, in the Presence of Yahweh. For His thoughts are not our thoughts, nor are our ways His ways, for as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are His ways higher than our ways, and His thoughts higher than our thoughts. (See Isaiah 55:8-9) We shall be holy, for the LORD our God is holy. Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord. (Hebrews 12:14 NKJV)

Seek Yahweh

Seek Yahweh while He may be found; Call upon Him while He is near. Let the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts; And let him return to Yahweh, and He will have compassion on him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. — Isaiah 55:6-7 (LSB) “In a burst of anger I turned my face away for a little while. But with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,” says the LORD, your Redeemer. (Isaiah 54:8 NLT) “Come to me with your ears wide open. Listen, and you will find life. I will make an everlasting covenant with you. I will give you all the unfailing love I promised to David.” (Isaiah 55:3) “For the mountains may move and the hills disappear, but even then my faithful love for you will remain. My covenant of blessing will never be broken,” says the LORD, who has mercy on you. (Isaiah 54:10 NLT) The LORD will guide you continually, giving you water when you are dry and restoring your strength. You will be like a well-watered garden, like an ever-flowing ...

“I am the LORD, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King.” Thus says the LORD, Who makes a way through the sea and a path through the mighty waters, — Isaiah 43:15-16 (NASB1995) Just as He made a way for the Israelites through the wilderness and through the waters, Yahweh still makes a way for His people today. Whatever you are going through today, know that He will show you the way to go. “Because the Sovereign LORD helps me, I will not be disgraced. Therefore, I have set my face like a stone, determined to do his will. And I know that I will not be put to shame.” (Isaiah 50:7 NLT)

“I have swept away your sins like a cloud. I have scattered your offenses like the morning mist. Oh, return to me, for I have paid the price to set you free.” — Isaiah 44:22 (NLT) This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says: “Only in returning to me and resting in me will you be saved. In quietness and confidence is your strength. But you would have none of it. (Isaiah 30:15 NLT) Let the wicked change their ways and banish the very thought of doing wrong. Let them turn to the LORD that he may have mercy on them. Yes, turn to our God, for he will forgive generously. (Isaiah 55:7 NLT) “What sorrow awaits those who argue with their Creator. Does a clay pot argue with its maker? (See Isaiah 45:9) Now repent of your sins and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped away. Then times of refreshment will come from the presence of the Lord, and he will again send you Jesus, your appointed Messiah. (Acts 3:19-20 NLT)

Never Forgotten

This is what the LORD says— the Holy One of Israel and your Creator: “Do you question what I do for my children? Do you give me orders about the work of my hands? I am the one who made the earth and created people to live on it. With my hands I stretched out the heavens. All the stars are at my command. — Isaiah 45:11-12 (NLT) We belong to Yahweh, our Maker and Redeemer. Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure. (Ephesians 1:4-5 NLT) He chose us and He also helps us. We are never forgotten. For God has said, “I will never fail you. I will never abandon you.” (See Hebrews 13:5) No matter what you are going through today, know that He is with you and He will deliver you.  This is what the LORD says— your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the LORD you...

No Weapon

“No weapon that is formed against you will succeed; And every tongue that rises against you in judgment you will condemn. This [peace, righteousness, security, and triumph over opposition] is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and this is their vindication from Me,” says the LORD. — Isaiah 54:17 (AMP) ‘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].’ (Isaiah 41:10 AMP) “When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you.” (Isaiah 43:2 NLT) When opposition, challenges and difficulties come, do not fear because the LORD our God, the Holy One of Israel is with us. He is mighty to save.
