Let Be

Image
Let be and be still, and know (recognize and understand) that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth! — Psalms 46:10 (AMPC) There are some situations in our lives that we have to let be. The more we try to force our will, the worse things sometimes get, and we end up stressing ourselves out. Instead, let us be still and understand that God will work things out at the right time and in His way. Cease striving and acknowledge El Elyon, the God Most High. He is exalted above the heavens and the earth. He is above every mountain and valley, and every storm we go through. He is Elohim, the all-powerful One, Creator of the universe and all it contains. Nothing is too difficult for Him. He is El Shaddai, the all sufficient One, the source of all our blessings. He is El Olam, the everlasting God, the beginning and the end. Know that He is Adonai, our Master and majestic Lord. And understand that He is El Roi, the God Who Sees you. He knows all that you g

He Came to Save

God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through Him. — John 3:17 (TLV) The Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost. (See Luke 19:10) Yeshua did not come to call the [self-proclaimed] righteous [who see no need to repent], but sinners to repentance [to change their old way of thinking, to turn from sin and to seek God and His righteousness].” (See Luke 5:32 AMP) “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16 TLV) He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (John 3:18 NASB1995) Believe in the Lord Yeshua as your personal Savior and entrust yourself to Him and you will be saved. “Now is the fullness of time,” He said, “and the kingdom of God is near! Turn away from your sins, and believe in the Good News!” —

Do As He Says

Simon answered and said, “Master, we worked hard all night and caught nothing, but I will do as You say and let down the nets.” — Luke 5:5 (NASB1995) Even though Peter and the other fishermen had worked hard all night and caught nothing, he obeyed the words of Yeshua and lowered the nets again. As a result, they caught such a great number of fish, they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they filled both of the boats, so that they began to sink. (See Luke 5:6-7) Oh, the blessings that follow our obedience! May we always do as our Lord and Savior says. When He says: “Follow Me,” let us follow Him each and every moment of the day. It’s only when we abide in Him that we can bear much fruit. (See John 15:4-5)  Yeshua says: “Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone…” And the blessing we receive is that our Father who is in heaven will also forgive us our transgressions. (See Mark 11:25) In Matthew 6:31-32, Yeshua instructs

Life & Peace

So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace. — Romans 8:6 (NLT) What is controlling your mind? The world, your flesh, or the Spirit of God? Those who are motivated by the flesh only pursue what benefits themselves. (See Romans 8:6 TPT) The Amplified Bible says the mind of the flesh pursues sin. And that leads to death. Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever. (1 John 2:15-17 NLT) For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God. (Romans 8:14 NLT) Set your mind on the things of the Spiri

He Directs

A man’s mind plans his way [as he journeys through life], but the LORD directs his steps and establishes them. — Proverbs 16:9 (AMP) Prayerfully make your plans. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. (Proverbs 3:6 NLT) Value the plan of God for your life more than you desire anything this world has to offer. May we continually follow the lead of His Holy Spirit each day, as He directs and guides us along the right path. Commit your way to Yahweh, trust in Him, and He will do it. (Psalm 37:5 LSB)  Whatever you do [whatever your task may be], work from the soul [that is, put in your very best effort], as [something done] for the Lord and not for men, knowing [with all certainty] that it is from the Lord [not from men] that you will receive the inheritance which is your [greatest] reward. It is the Lord Christ whom you [actually] serve. (Colossians 3:23-24 AMP)
