Created with a Purpose

Image
“You guided my conception and formed me in the womb. You clothed me with skin and flesh, and you knit my bones and sinews together. You gave me life and showed me your unfailing love. My life was preserved by your care.” — Job 10:10-12 (NLT) You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. (Psalms 139:15-16 NLT) Yahweh intentionally created you with a purpose and plan for your life.  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) Don’t fall for the distractions the devil brings your way in his attempt to steal, kill and destroy all that God has for yo...

Continually with You

Image
“Nevertheless I am continually with You; You hold me by my right hand. You will guide me with Your counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. Whom have I in heaven but You? And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You. My flesh and my heart fail; But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.” — Psalms 73:23-26 (NKJV) I can never escape from your Spirit! I can never get away from your presence! If I go up to heaven, you are there; if I go down to the grave, you are there. If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the farthest oceans, even there your hand will guide me, and your strength will support me. (Psalms 139:7-10 NLT) Yahweh is our hiding place; He will protect you from trouble. He will surround you with songs of victory. Interlude The LORD says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you. (See Psalms 32:7-8) May our greatest desire be for the Presence of our Heavenly Father.  But it is good f...

The God Who Sees Me

Image
Thereafter, Hagar used another name to refer to the LORD, who had spoken to her. She said, “You are the God who sees me.” She also said, “Have I truly seen the One who sees me?” — Genesis 16:13 (NLT) Sarai treated Hagar so harshly that she finally ran away. However, the angel of the LORD found Hagar beside a spring of water in the wilderness... (See Genesis 16:6-7 NLT) Wherever we go, we can never escape from the Spirit of Yahweh. We can never get away from His Presence. (See Psalms 139:7) Psalms 139:9-10 says: “If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the farthest oceans, even there your hand will guide me, and your strength will support me.” When it seems as though you are wandering in the wilderness, remember that He is “the God Who Sees me.” (El Roi) He is with you and is aware of your circumstances. Yahweh will instruct you and guide you along the right path. Psalms 16:11 says, He will show you the way of life, granting you the joy of His presence and the pleasures of li...

Cry Out

Image
Then they cry out to the LORD in their trouble, and He brings them out of their distresses. He calms the storm, so that its waves are still. Then they are glad because they are quiet; So He guides them to their desired haven. Oh, that men would give thanks to the LORD for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men! — Psalms 107:28-31 (NKJV) Even though the Israelites rebelled against the words of God, and despised the counsel of the Most High (See Psalms 107:11), His ear was open to hear their cries. When they turned to the Yahweh for help, He always had compassion and came to their rescue. He delivered them from all their troubles. (See Psalms 107:6, 13 & 19) When you are faced with troubles of any kind, cry out to Yahweh. He will hear your voice and He is faithful to deliver His people. Whoever is wise will observe these things, and they will understand the lovingkindness of the LORD. (Psalms 107:43 NASB1995) Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For...

The Strength of My Heart

Image
Nevertheless I am continually with You; You have taken hold of my right hand. With Your counsel You will guide me, and afterward receive me to glory. Whom have I in heaven but You? And besides You, I desire nothing on earth. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. — Psalm 73:23-26 (NASB1995) Blessed is the man whose strength is in You. It is good for me to draw near to God. For You are only my hope, O Lord GOD; You are my trust from my youth. By You I have been upheld from birth; You are He who took me out of my mother’s womb. My praise shall be continually of You. I have become as a wonder to many, but You are my strong refuge. Let my mouth be filled with Your praise and with Your glory all the day. (See Psalms 84:5, 71:5-8, 73:28) “…I’ll keep coming closer and closer to you, Lord YAHWEH, for your name is good to me. I’ll keep telling the world of your awesome works, my faithful and glorious God!” — Psalms 73:28 (TPT)

Trust in the Lord

Image
“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) It is prideful to think we can run our lives without Yahweh. And we know that pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. (See Proverbs 16:18) Do not rely on your own ideas and opinions, nor follow the ways of this world. Trying to figure things out on your own can lead to frustration, confusion, and exhaustion. Instead, listen for the voice of Almighty God. 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 3:6 AMP) For the LORD God is a sun and shield; The LORD gives grace and glory; No good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly. (Psalms 84:11 NASB1995)

He's in This Place

Image
Then Jacob departed from Beersheba and went toward Haran. And he reached a certain place and spent the night there because the sun had set; and he took one of the stones of the place and put it under his head and lay down in that place. Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely Yahweh is in this place, and I did not know it.” — Genesis 28:10-11, 16 (LSB) In Jacob's dream, God said, “I am Yahweh, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac… Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go. And I will bring you back to this land; for I will not forsake you until I have done what I have promised you.” (See Genesis 28:13, 15) Today, He is with us. Whatever place you are in, remember Yahweh is in that place with you. You are never alone. No matter what situation or circumstance you are facing, you too can declare: “Surely Yahweh is in this place!” Wherever you go, His hand will guide you and His strength will empower you. (See Psalms 139:10 TPT) Always be aware o...

Our Shepherd

Image
The LORD is my Shepherd [to feed, to guide and to shield me], I shall not want. He lets me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still and quiet waters. He refreshes and restores my soul (life); He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. — Psalms 23:1-3 (AMP) Learn to rest in the Presence of the LORD. He will refresh and restore your soul. He will make known to you the path of life; In His presence is fullness of joy; In His right hand there are pleasures forever. (See Psalms 16:11) In John 10:11,14, Yeshua says: “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own.” He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. And when he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. (See John 10:3-4) Today, He is calling your name. Do you hear His voice? Follow Him.

Continual Guidance

Image
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, difficult place. He will continually restore strength to you, so you will flourish like a well-watered garden and like an ever-flowing, trustworthy spring of blessing. — Isaiah 58:11 (TPT) When you don’t know what to do, always seek guidance from Yahweh. Seek His will through the Holy Scriptures. Be still, tune your ears to hear His still small voice and follow the leading of His Holy Spirit within you. He will show you the best pathway for your life. Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. But they delight in the law of the LORD, meditating on it day and night. They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do. (Psalms 1:1-3 NLT)

He Leads & Guides

Image
  For You are my rock and my fortress; For Your name’s sake You will lead me and guide me. You will pull me out of the net which they have secretly laid for me, for You are my strength. — Psalm 31:3-4 (NASB1995) May we follow Yahweh, all the days of our lives. He knows the plans He has for you. They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. (See Jeremiah 29:11 NLT) He will show you the path of life; (See Psalm 16:11 AMP) He will renew your strength and guide you along right paths, bringing honor to his name. (See Psalm 23:3 NLT) Second Corinthians 2:14 (NASB1995), says: But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ... Whatever you are going through, put a big "BUT" after it. But GOD! We have victory in Christ, and our heavenly Father is faithful. He will show you the way through, over, under or around it. The path of life leads upward for the wise; they leave the grave behind. (Proverbs 15:24 NLT) Amen!

He will Show You the Way

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) YAHWEH is faithful to instruct us and show us the way to go. Let us be willing to learn. For this is God, our God forever and ever; He will be our guide even until death. (Psalm 48:14 AMP) This is what the LORD says— your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the LORD your God, who teaches you what is good for you and leads you along the paths you should follow. (Isaiah 48:17 NLT) The LORD makes a way through the sea and a path through the mighty waters. He will even make a roadway in the wilderness. He will create rivers in the dry wasteland. (See Isaiah 43:16,19 NASB1995 & NLT) Instead of trying to figure things out on your own, trust YAHWEH to lead you and guide you through each and every situation. Keep your ears tuned in to His voice and listen to what He speaks to your heart.   I hear the Lord saying, “I will stay close ...

Don't Wander

Image
For you were continually wandering like [so many] sheep, but now you have come back to the Shepherd and Guardian of your souls. — 1 Peter 2:25 (AMP)  All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own.
 Yet the LORD laid on him the sins of us all. Jesus bore the sin of many, and interceded for the transgressors. (See Isaiah 53:6, 53:12) Hebrews 3:10 (NASB1995) says, this generation always go astray in their heart, and they did not know the ways of the LORD. I was so foolish and ignorant— I must have seemed like a senseless animal to you. Yet I still belong to you; you hold my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, leading me to a glorious destiny. (Psalm 73:22-24 NLT) Make a dedicated decision to abide in YAHWEH, in your heart and follow His ways.  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 spring.  — Isaiah 58:11 (N...

Lead Me

Image
Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything in me that offends  you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life. — Psalm 139:23-24 (NLT) The LORD will make known to us the path of life. (See Psalm 16:11) When we let the distractions of the enemy draw our attention away from God, we lose our sense of direction, and end up on some desolate dead end road. But our heavenly Father is faithful to guide us back to Him. May we give attention to the Word of God and keep our eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith. (See Hebrews 12:2) The LORD says, “ I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you .” (Psalm 32:8 NLT) Follow His lead. If I take the wings of the dawn, If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea, even there Your hand will lead me, and Your right hand will lay hold of me . — Psalm 139:9-10 (NASB)

New Life

Image
The season has changed, the bondage of your barren winter has ended, and the season of hiding is over and gone. The rains have soaked the earth and left it bright with blossoming flowers. The season for singing and pruning the vines has arrived. I hear the cooing of doves in our land, filling the air with songs to awaken you and guide you forth. Can you not discern this new day of destiny breaking forth around you? The early signs of my purposes and plans are bursting forth. The budding vines of new life are now blooming everywhere. The fragrance of their flowers whispers, “There is change in the air.” — Song of Songs 2:11-13a (TPT) “Arise [from spiritual depression to a new life], shine [be radiant with the glory and brilliance of the LORD]; for your light has come, and the glory and brilliance of the LORD has risen upon you.” (Isaiah 60:1 AMP)

Trust in the Lord

Image
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. Become intimate with him in whatever you do, and he will lead you wherever you go. — Proverbs 3:5-6 (TPT)  Never depend on your own ideas or human opinions. Totally rely on the Lord, El Elyon, the God Most High. He knows all and sees all. He is the Sovereign God in whom we can put our trust. Commit everything you do to the LORD. Trust him, and he will help you. (Psalm 37:5 NLT)

The Only Way

Image
Jesus said to him, “I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.”  — John 14:6 (AMP) Jesus is the only way.  He is the living truth and the only life worth living. Stay in step with Him. The LORD says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you.” (Psalm 32:8 NLT) Be led by the Holy Spirit. For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God. (Romans 8:14 NLT) “ I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows]. ” — John 10:10b (AMP) 

Just Come!

Image
I hear the Lord saying, “I will stay close to you, instructing and guiding you along the pathway for your life. I will advise you along the way and lead you forth with my eyes as your guide. So don’t make it difficult; don’t be stubborn when I take you where you’ve not been before. Don’t make me tug you and pull you along. Just come with me!” — Psalm 32:8-9 (TPT) Don’t fall prey to the schemes and deceit of the enemy. Before every person lies a road that seems to be right, but the end of that road is death and destruction. (Proverbs 14:12 VOICE) Now set your heart and your soul to seek the LORD your God; (1 Chronicles 22:19a NASB) Now prepare yourself mentally and emotionally to follow the Eternal One your God. (1 Chronicles 22:19a VOICE) The path God lays before us, leads to eternal life and a more abundant life.

Come & Worship

Image
Come, let us worship and bow down. Let us kneel before the LORD our maker, for he is our God. We are the people he watches over, the flock under his care. If only you would listen to his voice today!  — Psalm 95:6-7 (NLT) Know and fully recognize with gratitude that the LORD Himself is God; It is He who has made us, not we ourselves [and we are His]. We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. (Psalm 100:3 AMP) The LORD is my Shepherd [to feed, to guide and to shield me], I shall not want. He lets me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still and quiet waters. He refreshes and restores my soul (life); He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. (Psalm 23:1-3 AMP) Surely goodness and mercy and unfailing love shall follow me all the days of my life, a nd I shall dwell forever [throughout all my days] in the house and in the presence of the LORD. — Psalm 23:6 (AMP)

Trust Completely

Image
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) The Word of the LORD stands forever. Trust God completely. He is faithful to fulfill every word He has spoken. The word which goes out of His mouth will not return to Him void, without accomplishing what He desires, and without succeeding in the matter for which He sent it. (See Isaiah 55:11). For thus the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, has said, “In repentance and rest you will be saved, in quietness and trust is your strength.” (Isaiah 30:15a NASB) 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].  — Psalm 84:12 (AMP)
