Final Victory

L'Chaim Messianic Congregation, Lake Worth Florida, Palm Beaches

Today’s Scripture is from Paul’s letter to Timothy. Paul is encouraging Timothy to face difficulty as a good soldier. Telling him that implies that he is in a battle! This battle started a long time ago, even before Adam and Eve’s fall in the Garden of Eden. 

It started when Satan and the other angels (now known as demons) rebelled against almighty GOD. They established their own kingdom and waged war with GOD! And ever since Adam and Eve’s disobedience of eating the forbidden fruit (which corrupted all mankind), every human being ever born has a nature bent away from the LORD and is in great need of a Savior (our YESHUA)! 

Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against rulers of the darkness of this age (Ephesians 6:12), check it out! 

2 Tim. 2:3
You therefore must endure hardships as a good soldier of  MESSIAH YESHUA.

Ungodliness fills our society. Even though it seems at times Satan is winning, we who are saved have the assurance we belong to GOD, who is greater! Read the end of the book (Book of Revelation)! We have the final victory through MESSIAH YESHUA! Praise our soon coming KING OF KINGS!

Rewards of Waiting

L'Chaim Messianic Congregation, Lake Worth Florida, Palm Beaches

In GOD’S Kingdom, waiting on the LORD is always rewarding. We will receive supernatural energy and strength we need for godly living if we wait on GOD’S timetable with our issues.

When we are overburdened with our responsibilities, we could be tempted to get out of step with GOD. He may be telling us to keep a steady pace, but we may start lagging behind. And sometimes our schedules leave us little time to think, so we make quick decisions, pushing ahead of what GOD may want for us. 

In either case, we risk becoming weary, operating in our own strength. But patiently waiting on GOD will bring us the physical and emotional energy we need to keep going.

Psalm 33:20
Our soul waits on the LORD. He is our help and our shield.

Our omniscient and omnipotent GOD is always right on time! His delays are never His denials. Won’t you put your trust in His perfect timing today?

Youthful Attitude

L'Chaim Messianic Congregation, Lake Worth Florida, Palm Beaches

As believers in MESSIAH YESHUA, we need to always maintain a youthful attitude, no matter how old we may be! Our usefulness to the Kingdom of GOD never ends, no matter our age. 

Laughter is always a good thing in life. Some of us have been hurt deeply and have emotional baggage that we are carrying with us. Don’t let laughter be buried under all that. Clinging to past bitterness and feelings of rejection can age us quickly. We need to lay all that down at the cross of YESHUA, by forgiving others and ourselves. 

And always remember that with each new sunrise, every morning is a new beginning; with each new day, we have another opportunity for our ABBA FATHER to help us smile and laugh! 

Psalm 103:5

He fills my life with good things. My youth is renewed like the eagles.

As believers, we have the opportunity to take part in GOD’S work each and everyday, being a blessing to those around us. Never give up on your dreams and moving toward your goals. Remember, as soon as we settle for watching the world go by, we start to age!

Blessings,

Borrowing Trouble

L'Chaim Messianic Congregation, Lake Worth Florida, Palm Beaches

GOD gives us just enough grace for one day at a time! To avoid fatigue, weariness, and burnout in our minds, we must learn to live one day at a time! YESHUA teaches us in today’s Scripture to meet each day’s challenges as they come and that we are not to be borrowing today our troubles that can be coming our way tomorrow! 

GOD has promised us His amazing grace to help us face our troubles and be overcomers when they come our way each and everyday! But that grace comes one day at a time.

Matthew 6:34
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will worry about its own things, sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

All of you who know me, know that’s a very special Scripture to me. We may not know what tomorrow will hold, but we know WHO holds tomorrow! So let’s begin today to live one day at a time, knowing that our ABBA FATHER will supply an abundant amount of His amazing grace to see us through each and every morning, and that is a promise that we can count on from our Creator!

Blessings,

Pastor Bruce & Suzi Elman

Sweet Praise

L'Chaim Messianic Congregation, Lake Worth Florida, Palm Beaches

GOD inhabits the praises of His people! That means He is comfortable in the midst of our sweet praises, but He is not comfortable in the midst of a sour attitude! 

Today, let’s take a moment to take inventory of our inner life because it is the dwelling place of GOD (when we ask YESHUA Into our hearts, GOD’S Spirit is dwelling there)!

See, ABBA FATHER is much more interested in our inner lives (our heart) than our outer lives (appearance). So we need to be more concerned about what goes on inside than our external matters. 

Psalm 147:1
Praise the Lord! How good to sing praises to our God! How delightful and how fitting.

When we are praising, worshipping. and honoring GOD in our inner life, it makes our life right in GOD’S eyes. And when that happens, your outside will follow.

Blessings,

Pastor Bruce & Suzi Elman
