Choose Life

Image
“ See, I have set before you today life and prosperity, and death and calamity; in that I am commanding you today to love Yahweh your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His judgments, that you may live and multiply, and that Yahweh your God may bless you in the land where you are entering to possess it. ” — Deuteronomy 30:15-16 (LSB) Yeshua is God with us. (See Matthew 1:21, 23 TLV) He came that we may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows]. (See John 10:10b AMP) The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. (See John 10:10a AMP) Satan is our enemy, not our friend. He is against us and our awesome God is for us. Yet, there are multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of Yahweh is near in the valley of decision. (See Joel 3:14 LSB). Just as the Israelites in the Old Testament were given a choice, we too must make a decision. Choose for yourselves today whom you will serve...

Release Forgiveness

Image
“Forgive us the wrongs we have done as we ourselves release forgiveness to those who have wronged us.” — Matthew 6:12 (TPT) May we not harbor any unforgiveness or bitterness in our hearts toward those who have hurt us. Psalms 86:5 (NKJV) says the Lord is good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those who call upon Him. However, Matthew 6:15 (NASB1995) says, if you do not forgive others, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions. So let us continually release forgiveness and the sweet fragrance of love. First Corinthians 13:5 says, love keeps no record of being wronged, and the second greatest commandment in Mark 12:31 says: ’You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ We may not be able to forget the wrongs we have suffered, but we can stop intentionally recalling them and rehearsing them over and over again in our minds, or repeatedly reminding the person who did the wrong. And forgiving someone does not mean we are to remain in abusive and unhealthy relatio...

Be Renewed

Image
Since you have heard about Jesus and have learned the truth that comes from him, throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God—truly righteous and holy. — Ephesians 4:22-24 (NLT) So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days. (Ephesians 5:15-16 NLT) And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. (Romans 12:2 NASB195) Hold on to loyal love and don’t let go, and be faithful to all that you’ve been taught. Let your life be shaped by integrity, with truth written upon your heart. (Proverbs 3:3 TPT)

In All Your Ways

Image
Trust in and rely confidently on the LORD with all your heart and do not rely on your own insight or understanding. In all your ways know and acknowledge and recognize Him, and He will make your paths straight and smooth [removing obstacles that block your way]. — Proverbs 3:5-6 (AMP) In all your ways, acknowledge and honor Yahweh as the One true and living God. He is the God Most High. Live submitted to His will and His ways. Don’t think for a moment that you know it all, for wisdom comes when you adore him with undivided devotion and avoid everything that’s wrong. (Proverbs 3:7 TPT) If any of you lacks wisdom [to guide him through a decision or circumstance], he is to ask of [our benevolent] God, who gives to everyone generously and without rebuke or blame, and it will be given to him.  (James 1:5 AMP)

He Stands With You

Image
The first time I was brought before the judge, no one came with me. Everyone abandoned me. May it not be counted against them. But the Lord stood with me and gave me strength so that I might preach the Good News in its entirety for all the Gentiles to hear. And he rescued me from certain death. — 2 Timothy 4:16-17 (NLT) Everyone may desert you, but always remember, the Lord stands with you. He will strengthen and empower you to do all that He has called you to do. Yeshua, the righteous Messiah is our Advocate and support. And if God is for us, who can be successful against us? (See Romans 8:31 AMP) “All things are possible for the one who believes and trusts in Yeshua!” (Mark 9:23 AMP) You can do all things [which He has called you to do] through Him who strengthens and empowers you [to fulfill His purpose... (See Philippians 4:13 AMP)

Return to Yahweh

Image
Let us test and examine our ways, and let us return to the LORD. Let us lift up our hearts and our hands [in prayer] toward God in heaven; — Lamentations 3:40-41 (AMP) We tend to examine the lives of others and give unsolicited commentary. However, the Word of God tells us to examine ourselves. Second Corinthians 13:5 (AMP) says: Test and evaluate yourselves to see whether you are in the faith and living your lives as [committed] believers. Examine yourselves [not me]! “Now your souls will be strengthened and healed if you hold steadfast to your faith…” (See 2 Corinthians 13:5 TPT) For the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel has said this, “In returning [to Me] and rest you shall be saved, in quietness and confident trust is your strength.” But you were not willing, (Isaiah 30:15 AMP). 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 55:7 LSB)  ...

Perfect Peace

Image
“You will keep in perfect and constant peace the one whose mind is steadfast [that is, committed and focused on You—in both inclination and character], because he trusts and takes refuge in You [with hope and confident expectation]. — Isaiah 26:3 (AMP) Perfect peace is an abiding peace. It does not fluctuate up and down as external circumstances change. Perfect peace remains constant in the midst challenging situations. Trust in Yahweh forever, for in Yah—Yahweh Himself—we have an everlasting Rock. (Isaiah 26:4 LSB) Take refuge in Him at all times. Let me hear what the God, Yahweh, will speak; For He will speak peace to His people, to His holy ones; But let them not turn back to folly. (Psalms 85:8 LSB) The LORD will give strength to His people; The LORD will bless His people with peace. (Psalms 29:11 NKJV) Amen.

Be Still

Image
Be still before the LORD; wait patiently for Him and entrust yourself to Him; Do not fret (whine, agonize) because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who carries out wicked schemes. — Psalms 37:7 (AMP) Instead of continually striving in sheer human strength after your own program and agenda, let your heart and mind be still in the presence of our Heavenly Father. Commit your way to Yahweh, trust in Him, and He will do it. He will bring forth your righteousness as the light and your judgment as the noonday. (Psalms 37:5-6 LSB) Keep trusting in the Lord and do what is right in his eyes. Fix your heart on the promises of God, and you will dwell in the land, feasting on his faithfulness. (Psalms 37:3 TPT) For one day the wicked will be destroyed, but those who trust in the Lord will inherit the land. (Psalms 37:9 TPT) When Yahweh delights in how you live your life, he establishes your every step. (Psalms 37:23 TPT) The faithful lovers of God will inherit the earth and enjoy...

Be Slow to Speak

Image
Understand this, my beloved brothers and sisters. Let everyone be quick to hear [be a careful, thoughtful listener], slow to speak [a speaker of carefully chosen words and], slow to anger [patient, reflective, forgiving]; — James 1:19 (AMP) We need to be slow to speak so we can choose our words carefully. How good and delightful is a word spoken at the right moment—how good it is! (See Proverbs 15:23 AMP) A gentle answer deflects anger, but harsh words make tempers flare. (Proverbs 15:1 NLT) Let us speak encouraging, positive words of life. Proverbs 12:18 says, the tongue of the wise brings healing. Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear. (Ephesians 4:29 NASB1995) Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person.  — Colossians 4:6 (NASB1995)

Great is His Lovingkindness

Image
For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His lovingkindness toward those who fear and worship Him [with awe-filled respect and deepest reverence]. As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.  — Psalms 103:11-12 (AMP) Yahweh is gracious and compassionate; Slow to anger and great in lovingkindness. Yahweh is good to all, and His compassions are over all His works. (Psalms 145:8-9 LSB) The LORD upholds all those [of His own] who fall and raises up all those who are bowed down. (Psalms 145:14 AMP) Yahweh is righteous in all His ways and holy in all His works. Yahweh is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth. (Psalms 145:17-18 LSB) All Your works, O Yahweh, shall give thanks to You, and Your holy ones shall bless You. (Psalms 145:10 LSB) For Your lovingkindness toward me is great, and You have delivered my soul from Sheol below. (Psalms 86:13 LSB) I will exalt You, my God, O King, and I will bless Your ...

Christ Lives In You

Image
This message was kept secret for centuries and generations past, but now it has been revealed to God’s people. For God wanted them to know that the riches and glory of Christ are for you Gentiles, too. And this is the secret: Christ lives in you. This gives you assurance of sharing his glory. — Colossians 1:26-27 (NLT) Colossians 1:27 (TPT) says: This mystery of Christ, embedded within us, becomes a heavenly treasure chest of hope filled with the riches of glory for his people, and God wants everyone to know it!  “Now wherever you go, make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. And teach them to faithfully follow all that I have commanded you. And never forget that I am with you every day, even to the completion of this age.” (Matthew 28:19-20 TPT) Amen.

Don't Drift

Image
So by two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to take hold of the hope set before us. — Hebrews 6:18 (TLV) We have this hope as an anchor of the soul, both firm and steady—a hope that enters the inner place behind the curtain. Yeshua has entered there as a forerunner on our behalf… (See Hebrews 19-20 TLV). When we take hold of the hope we have in Yeshua, it serves as an anchor, to keep us from drifting away from Yahweh. In stormy times, our hope is an anchor of the soul that will keep us closely connected to Him. It cannot slip and it cannot break down under whatever pressure bears upon it. (See Hebrews 6:19 AMP) So, fix your [confident] hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe [in Him, recognize Him as the Son of God, and accept Him as Savior and Lord]. (See 1 Timothy 4:10 AMP) He is our ONLY hope. Now, little children (believers, dear ones), remain i...

Live by Faith

Image
“Look at the proud! They trust in themselves, and their lives are crooked. But the righteous will live by their faithfulness to God.” — Habakkuk 2:4 (NLT) Instead of being puffed up with pride, let us humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God and put our confidence in Him. ...as for me, I trust in You, O Yahweh, I say, “You are my God.” (Psalms 31:14 LSB)“Though the fig tree should not blossom and  there be no produce on the vines, though the yield of the olive should fail and the fields yield no food, though the flock should be cut off from the fold and there be no cattle in the stalls, yet I will exult in Yahweh; I will rejoice in the God of my salvation.” (Habakkuk 3:17-18 LSB) No matter how dismal circumstances may appear, always live by faith in the One true and living God. He is our Provider and He is good and generous. He fulfills every word He has spoken.  Now faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed), and the evid...

His Marvelous Mercies

Image
Through the LORD’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. — Lamentations 3:22 (NKJV) The LORD is good to all, and His tender mercies are over all His works. (Psalms 145:9 NKJV) He redeems your life from destruction, and crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies. (See Psalms 103:4) Though He causes grief, yet He will show compassion according to the multitude of His mercies. (Lamentations 3:32 NKJV) Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, the Father of compassion and God of all encouragement. (2 Corinthians 1:3 TLV) “Beloved friends, what should be our proper response to God’s marvelous mercies? To surrender yourselves to God to be his sacred, living sacrifices. And live in holiness, experiencing all that delights his heart. For this becomes your genuine expression of worship.” (Romans 12:1 TPT)

He Delivers

Image
Then they took Jeremiah and cast him into the cistern of Malchijah the king’s son, which was in the court of the guardhouse; and they let Jeremiah down with ropes. Now in the cistern there was no water but only mud, and Jeremiah sank into the mud. — Jeremiah 38:6 (NASB1995) Jeremiah was thrown into a dungeon for obeying God and speaking His word of warning to the people. Even when we are doing as Yahweh has instructed us, things may not go as we think they should. When you are mistreated for speaking the Word of God, remember that Yahweh is always with you. You are never alone. And they will fight against you, but they will not overcome you, for I am with you to deliver you,” declares Yahweh. (See Jeremiah 1:19 LSB) Just as Jeremiah was lifted out of the dungeon (See Jeremiah 38:13), Yahweh will rescue you from the hands of the enemy.  Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; ‘For YAH, the LORD, is my strength and song; He also has become my salvation.’ ” There...

Receive His Instruction

Image
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you [who are willing to learn] with My eye upon you. — Psalms 32:8 (AMP) Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD [with reverent awe and obedience] and turn [entirely] away from evil. (Proverbs 3:7 AMP) Give attention to the Word of God, and listen for His still small voice. Follow the lead of His Holy Spirit, knowing that Yahweh is faithful to show you the way you should go. Prayer : Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning; For I trust in You; Cause me to know the way in which I should walk; For to You I lift up my soul. Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God; Let Your good Spirit lead me on level ground. (Psalms 143:8, 10 LSB) Amen.

Nothing Too Difficult

Image
“‘Ah Lord Yahweh! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and by Your outstretched arm! Nothing is too difficult for You,” — Jeremiah 32:17 LSB) Nothing is too difficult for the Creator of heaven and earth. Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego were thrown in the fiery furnace, which was heated seven times more than it was usually heated. However, when they came out  the fire had effect on the bodies of these men nor was the hair of their head singed, nor were their trousers damaged, nor had the smell of fire even come upon them. (See Daniel 3:19-27) After Yeshua told him to “come forth,” Lazarus walked out of his grave, after being dead 4 days. (See John 11:39-44) And more importantly, after Yeshua was beaten, and hung on a cross, God raised Him up on the third day. (See Acts 10:40) Now He is at the right hand of God, and also intercedes for us. (See Romans 8:34)  With God all things are possible. (See Matthew 19:26) In the midst of challenging circumst...

Be Thankful

Image
Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him, bless His name. For Yahweh is good; His lovingkindness endures forever and His faithfulness, generation unto generation. — Psalms 100:4-5 (LSB) Oh, that men would give thanks to the LORD for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men! (Psalms 107:8 NKJV) When we have an attitude of gratitude for all that our heavenly Father has provided, we can't help but give thanks and sing His praises. Instead of looking for what is lacking, count your blessings and be grateful for all that our heavenly Father has so generously provided. Like the Apostle Paul, learn to be content in whatever circumstances you have. (See Philippians 4:11) … in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Messiah Yeshua.. (1 Thessalonians 5:18 TLV) In Jeremiah 31:14 (LSB), Yahweh declares “…My people will be satisfied with My goodness.” It is good to give thanks to Yahweh and to sing praises to Yo...

Magnify Yahweh

Image
I will bless Yahweh at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul will make its boast in Yahweh; The humble will hear it and rejoice. O magnify Yahweh with me, and let us exalt His name together. — Psalms 34:1-3 (LSB) The more we discuss the deeds of darkness, the more attention the enemy gets. As followers of Yeshua, we have the light of life in us. (See John 8:12 TLV) We have the light of hope for those who walk in gloom and doom. Let us be beacons of light, reflecting the light of the Lord. Magnify our great and awesome God. Share the good things He has done. Let others know what a loving and gracious God He is. The earth is full of the goodness of the LORD. (See Psalms 33:5 NKJV) But as for me, it is good for me to draw near to God; I have made the Lord GOD my refuge and placed my trust in Him, that I may tell of all Your works. — Psalms 73:28 (AMP)

Be All In

Image
I will give them a heart to know Me, [understanding fully] that I am the LORD; and they will be My people, and I will be their God, for they will return to Me with their whole heart. — Jeremiah 24:7 (AMP) Don't be a half-hearted follower of Yahweh, wavering between the world and the Word of God. A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways. (See James 1:8) Be totally devoted to Yahweh. “Trust in the Lord completely, and do not rely on your own opinions. With all your heart rely on him to guide you, and he will lead you in every decision you make.” (Proverbs 3:5 TPT) “For the eyes of the LORD move to and fro throughout the earth so that He may support those whose heart is completely His…” (See 2 Chronicles 16:9 AMP)  “You’re only truly happy when you walk in total integrity, walking in the light of God’s Word.” (Psalms‬ ‭119‬:‭1‬ ‭TPT)‬‬ 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 1...

Know & Believe

Image
We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. — 1 John 4:16 (NASB1995) May we know and believe in the unfailing love Yahweh continually lavishes upon us. First Corinthians 8:3 (AMP) says: …if anyone loves God [with awe-filled reverence, obedience and gratitude], he is known by Him [as His very own and is greatly loved]. Let His love seep into every pore and fiber of your being. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Messiah Yeshua our Lord. (Romans 8:38-39 TLV) This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins. (1 John 4:10 NLT) As Yahweh pours His love into us, may we share it with everyone He brings our way. Dear frie...

Be Blessed!

Image
Thus says Yahweh, “Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind and makes flesh his strength, and whose heart turns away from Yahweh. Blessed is the man who trusts in Yahweh and whose trust is Yahweh. — Jeremiah 7:5, 7 (LSB) 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) Let us put no confidence in the flesh. Believe in and trust in Yahweh, the only true and living God. Rely on Him in all situations and circumstances. For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” (Romans 10:11 NKJV) Lovingkindness shall surround those who trust in Yahweh. (See Psalms 32:10 LSB) He pardons all your iniquities, heals all your diseases, redeems your life from the pit, and crowns you with lovingkindness and compassion. Yahweh satisfies your years with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle. (See Psalms 103:3-5 LSB) Commit your way to Yahweh, trust in Him, and He will...

Live in the Light

Image
Now this is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you—that God is light and in Him there is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with Him and keep walking in the darkness, we are lying and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another and the blood of His Son Yeshua purifies us from all sin. — 1 John 1:5-7 (TLV) “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they put it on a lampstand so it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men so they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:14-16 TLV) Let us live in the light of the Lord and bring glory to the Kingdom of God. In Him, we have the light of life, the light of love, and the light of hope.

Listen & Obey

Image
But this thing I did command them: ‘Listen to and obey My voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be My people; and you will walk in all the way which I command you, so that it may be well with you.’ — Jeremiah 7:23 (AMP) The plans and thoughts God has toward us are good. He wants us to prosper in every area of our lives, to be healed, whole, growing and fruitful. First Timothy 6:17 (NKJV) tells us not to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy. For Yahweh God is a sun and shield; Yahweh gives grace and glory; No good thing does He withhold from those who walk blamelessly. (Psalms 84:11 LSB) However, Jeremiah 5:28 says, our sins have withheld good from us. “Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.” (...

Choose Life

Image
“ Your own wickedness punishes you. Your own unfaithfulness rebukes you. Look deep into your heart and you will learn how evil and bitter it is to forsake me, YAHWEH your God, and have no awe of me. I, YAHWEH, Commander of Angel Armies, have spoken. ” — Jeremiah 2:19 (TPT) May we learn from our wrong choices and bad decisions. Hold onto the faith, and never reject YAHWEH. To be indifferent to Him is like being lukewarm. In Revelation 3:16 Yeshua says: “…because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.”  Life and death are set before us, the blessing and the curse. So choose life in order that you may live, you and your descendants… (See Deuteronomy 30:19). To choose YAHWEH is to choose life. All who desire real life, choose YAHWEH, and His Son. No one comes to the Father except through Yeshua. (See John 14:16 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)

Satisfied?

Image
“Has a nation [ever] changed gods even though they were not gods [but merely man-made objects]? But My people have exchanged their Glory (the true God) for that [man-made idol] which does not benefit [them]. — Jeremiah 2:11 (AMP) “Why do you spend money for what is not bread, and your wages for what does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good, and delight yourself in abundance. (Isaiah 55:2 NASB1995) O taste and see that Yahweh is good; How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him! (Psalms 34:8 LSB) The things of this world can never bring lasting satisfaction, only temporary thrills, then you are left empty and aching. For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul? (Mark 8:36 LSB) When Yahweh opens His generous hand, it’s full of blessings, satisfying the longings of every living thing. (See Psalms 145:16 TPT) “Yahweh will always guide you where to go and what to do. He will fill you with refreshment even when you are in a dry, diffi...

Seek After God

Image
Seek the LORD, all who are humble, and follow his commands. Seek to do what is right and to live humbly. Perhaps even yet the LORD will protect you— protect you from his anger on that day of destruction. — Zephaniah 2:3 (NLT) May we purposefully and passionately pursue to know the LORD and be known by Him. “His purpose was for the nations to seek after God and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him—though he is not far from any one of us. For in him we live and move and exist. As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’” (Acts 17:27-28 NLT) To know Him is to love Him and trust Him. And as we get to know Him we are to become more like Him: loving, kind, generous and gracious. Second Corinthians 3:18 (AMP) says: we all, with unveiled face, continually seeing as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are progressively being transformed into His image from [one degree of] glory to [even more] glory, which comes from the Lord, [who is] the Spirit. “I will leave in your...

Choose the Good Part

Image
But the Lord answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things; but only one thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.” — Luke 10:41-42 (NASB1995) Mary sat at the Lord’s feet, listening to His word. But her sister, Martha was distracted with all her preparations. (See Luke 10:39-40) Are you worried and bothered about so many things? Don't let endless preparations and demands keep you away from Him. Make spending time, being still in the presence of Yeshua and listening to His Word a priority. It's in His Presence that we can experience fullness of joy, deep peace and pleasures forevermore.

God is Good

Image
The LORD is good, a strength and stronghold in the day of trouble; He knows [He recognizes, cares for, and understands fully] those who take refuge and trust in Him. — Nahum 1:7 (AMP) Yahweh is a strong defense in the day of distress, and He knows those who take refuge in Him. (See Nahum 1:7-8 LSB). Make a decision to continually trust in Yahweh, regardless of how circumstances may appear, and you will not be disappointed. God is good. Anything He instructs us to do or not to do, is for our benefit. Like any loving parent, He wants the best for His children. The LORD is our light. (See Psalms 27:1) He is love and He is life. Any other way we choose to go takes us toward darkness, destruction and death.  The LORD is slow to anger and great in power and He will by no means leave the guilty unpunished. The LORD has His way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust beneath His feet. — Nahum 1:3 (AMP)

Be Strong & Courageous

Image
And when he was in distress, he entreated Yahweh his God and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers. Then he prayed to Him, and He was moved by his entreaty and heard his supplication, and returned him back to Jerusalem to his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that Yahweh was God. — 2 Chronicles 33:12-13 (LSB) Who do you turn to when in distress? May we first implore Yahweh in any and all situations, and know that He is our great God, the God Most High. And His ear is open to hear the petitions of His people. Be strengthened by the words of Hezekiah, king of Judah to God’s people: “Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be dismayed because of the king of Assyria nor because of all the multitude that is with him; for the one with us is greater than the one with him. With him is only an arm of flesh, but with us is Yahweh our God to help us and to fight our battles.” (See 2 Chronicles 32:7-8) Yahweh is still with His people to help us and to fight our battles.  Little chil...

Our Heritage

Image
“ 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) Revelation 12:17 (TLV) says: …the dragon became enraged at the woman and went off to make war with the rest of her offspring—those who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Yeshua. Satan declared war on the children of God. But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen you [setting you on a firm foundation] and will protect and guard you from the evil one. (2 Thessalonians 3:3 AMP) In 2 Chronicles 20:15, the LORD told His people: “Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God’s.” ...thanks be to God, who keeps giving us the victory through our Lord Yeshua the Messiah! (1 Corinthians 15:57 TLV) Amen ...
