(See John 18:37) The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is upon Him, for the LORD has anointed Him to bring good news to the poor. He was sent to comfort the brokenhearted and to proclaim that captives will be released and prisoners will be freed.

Instead, you live under the freedom of God’s grace. (Romans 6:14 NLT) Be a true disciple of Christ and remain faithful to His teachings. May we press on to know the truth and be set free from anything or anyone that attempts to hold us captiv...

“So we must listen very carefully to the truth we have heard, or we may drift away from it.” — Hebrews 2:1 (NLT) Don’t drift away from the truth, God’s Word. For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. (Hebrews 4:12 NKJV) And never doubt, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. (See James 1:6) Be faithful to our heavenly Father, and His Son, Yeshua the Christ to the end. For if we are faithful to the end, trusting God just as firmly as when we first believed, we will share in all that belongs to Christ. (Hebrews 3:14 NLT) “ Take care, brethren, that there not be in any one of you an evil, unbelieving heart that falls away from the living God.

“God is spirit [the Source of life, yet invisible to mankind], and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” — John 4:24 (AMP) “Opposition to truth cannot be excused on the basis of ignorance, because from the creation of the world, the invisible qualities of God’s nature have been made visible, such as his eternal power and transcendence. He has made his wonderful attributes easily perceived, for seeing the visible makes us understand the invisible. So then, this leaves everyone without excuse.” (Romans 1:20 TPT) “From now on, worshiping the Father will not be a matter of the right place but with a right heart. For God is a Spirit, and he longs to have sincere worshipers who adore him in the realm of the Spirit and in truth.” (John 4:23-24 TPT) All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to Yahweh, and all the families of the nations will worship before You.

  “Jeremiah, say to the people, ‘This is what the LORD says: “‘When people fall down, don’t they get up again? When they discover they’re on the wrong road, don’t they turn back? Then why do these people stay on their self-destructive path? Why do the people of Jerusalem refuse to turn back? They cling tightly to their lies and will not turn around. I listen to their conversations and don’t hear a word of truth. Is anyone sorry for doing wrong? Does anyone say, “What a terrible thing I have done”? No! All are running down the path of sin as swiftly as a horse galloping into battle!” — Jeremiah 8:4-6 (NLT) This is what the LORD says: “Stop at the crossroads and look around. Ask for the old, godly way, and walk in it. Travel its path, and you will find rest for your souls.

(See Psalms 16:11a) May we have the wisdom to walk on it.  The path of life leads up...

Don’t let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor him in your youth before you grow old and say, “Life is not pleasant anymore.” Yes, remember your Creator now while you are young, before the silver cord of life snaps and the golden bowl is broken. Don’t wait until the water jar is smashed at the spring and the pulley is broken at the well. — Ecclesiastes 12:1, 12:6 (NLT) Whatever your current age, it’s never too late to earnestly remember your Creator. Second Corinthians 6:2 (NKJV) says: Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

They traded the truth about God for a lie. So they worshiped and served the things God created instead of the Creator himself, who is worthy of eternal praise! Amen. (See Romans 1:23, 25 NLT) Always remember God. He is our rock, the God Most High...

Riches and honor are with me, enduring wealth and righteousness (right standing with God). (Proverbs 8:17-18 AMP) Listen to my instruction and be wise. Don’t ignore it.

(Proverbs 8:33-35 NLT) Leave your simple ways behind, and begin to live; learn to use good judgment.” (Proverbs 9:6 NLT)  Wisdom w...

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.

Selah.” — Psalms 32:5 (NASB1995) David says when he kept silent about his sin, his body wasted away… (See Psalms 32:3) Let us repent and confess our sins to Yahweh. He desires truth in the innermost being (See Psalms 51:6) Expose the deeds of the darkness to the light of His love, grace and mercy. Therefore having overlooked the times of ignorance, God is now declaring to men that all people everywhere should repent, (Acts 17:30).  If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:8-9 NASB1995) How blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered! How blessed is the man to whom the LORD does not impute iniquity, and in whose spirit there is...

(See John 14:16-17) In John 16:13 (NKJV), Yeshua said: “the Spirit of truth will guide you into all truth…” Let us eagerly seek to know the truth (the Word of God) and stand on it. When we know the truth, we will not fall for the lies of the enemy. Nor will we conform or compromise with the ways of this world. Let us habitually walk with, and be led by the Holy Spirit. Seek Him and be responsive to His guidance, and then we will certainly not carry out the desire of the sinful nature (See Galatians 5:16 AMP/NASB) Let us continually bear the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. (See Galatians 5:22-23) If we [claim to] ...

(Hebrews 10:22 VOICE) May we continually draw closer to our heavenly Father with all of our hearts and minds, but also in our actions. Come close to the one true God, and He will draw close to you.

(Isaiah 55:6-7 NLT)  ...they who seek the LORD will not lack any good thing. — Psalm 34:10b (AMP)

Be prepared. You’re up against far more than you can handle on your own. Take all the help you can get, every weapon God has issued, so that when it’s all over but the shouting you’ll still be on your feet. Truth, righteousness, peace, faith, and salvation are more than words. Learn how to apply them. You’ll need them throughout your life. God’s Word is an indispensable weapon. In the same way, prayer is essential in this ongoing warfare. Pray hard and long. Pray for your brothers and sisters. Keep your eyes open. Keep each other’s spirits up so that no one falls behind or drops out. — Ephesians 6:13-18 (MSG) When we clothe ourselves with the full armor of God, we are prepared and protected. Amen!
