NO TIME FOR GOD!

2/15/2021

“As God’s fellow-workers we also urge you not to receive his grace and then do nothing with it. For he says, “At the acceptable time I heard you; in the day of salvation, I helped you.” -  2 Corinthians 6:1-2, CJB
 
I’ve noticed for a while now how Covid-19 has changed how we as believers view being in community.  Many congregations would have fellowship after services.  People would get together and talk about the (drash) sermon or talk about their week and Yeshua in it.  It’s even been reported that when congregations closed down due to COVID-19, many of them went to online services.  Some would watch live, some would wait until later, because they saw the opportunity to spend the day elsewhere.  I have even heard from several leaders that when congregations reopened, some came back, but some stayed with their new routines.  Some of the ones that have come back, can’t seem to get out quick enough, so they can get on with their day, as if being there is an imposition; “I can’t give you all my time, I need to go have fun.”  
 
Adonai gives us all the time we need.  He loves us unconditionally.  He gave us his Son that we may have everlasting life.  He’s given us grace and we’ve laid it by the wayside.  Shabbat is a day of resting in him; it’s a day devoted to him.  

​Let’s go back to making Shabbat about him and not about us.  
 
Be a Blessing and Be Blessed!

HONORING PARENTS

2/8/2021

​“Children, what you should do in union with the Lord is obey your parents, for this is right. “Honor your father and mother” — this is the first commandment that embodies a promise — “so that it may go well with you, and you may live long in the Land.”- Ephesians 6:1-3, Complete Jewish Bible
 
We are living in a time where the rights of the parents raising their children is being taken away.  So much so, that we are no longer allowed to know what they are being taught in school.  Our children are being told that they don’t need to listen to their parents.  Unfortunately, many parents don’t see it happening.  Children start to be disrespectful and parents don’t understand why.  I believe it’s because they are not being taught what it really means to have a relationship with God.  They may learn about him in their congregation, but not have any follow up at home.  The Bible isn’t a book of stories to read during Saturday or Sunday service, it’s instruction on how to conduct ourselves on a daily basis.  It teaches us accountably and also consequences when we sin.  In a time when parents have more time at home with their children, take the opportunity to spend more time in the word with them.  Help them to build a relationship with God and to understand what that means.  Teach them about Yeshua, who he is and what he did for them.  Show them how to respect and love one another.  If we obey the lord in raising our children in the way they should go, then our children can obey the Lord in honoring us.  
 
Be a Blessing and Be Blessed!

UNDER THE INFLUENCE!

“When you violate the covenant of Adonai your God, which he ordered you to obey, and go and serve other gods and worship them, then the anger of Adonai will blaze up against you; and you will perish quickly from the good land which he has given you!”- Joshua 23:16, CJB
 
Many people ask why God isn’t there for them in certain times.  They go through turmoil and ask, “God, where are you?”  I have to ask, where is your heart with God?  There are a lot of things going on in the world today that the body of Messiah gets caught up in.  There are many that are pro ..., and there are many that are anti ... Where are you in the midst in relationship to God and his Word.  Yeshua died for our sins.  If we fall short in some areas in our lives, we know we’re covered.  But to have a belief in something that is against God is quite another story.  He’s very clear on how we are to live our lives.  Our hearts can hurt for others in their sin, but we shouldn’t condone them in their sin. When we do that, we turn our backs on God.  If we continue to turn our backs on God, it’s only a matter of time before he turns us over to our sins.  He cannot be manipulated into our way of thinking.  His word is true.  Things around us may change, but he does not.  The road of righteousness leads to him.  With him is where we should always want to be.  Do not follow the crowd into oblivion, lead the crowd to him.  
 
Be a Blessing and Be Blessed!
