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,

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

Comforting Word

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

Psalm 23 is where we find today’s Scripture that is so comforting! As busy as our schedules are in this hectic world we live in, let’s take time out to reflect on GOD’S comforting word! GOD causes us to lay down and rest, He refreshes and restores our mind, will, and emotions (which make up our soul)! 

What a wonderful promise. The word “restore “ means to bring back into existence and use or to bring back to an original state; to cause to return or to refresh! 

If you have been hurt and your soul has been wounded, you can claim the promise of restoration. 

Psalm 23:3
He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name sake.

ABBA FATHER has a plan for our restoration. If we will allow Him to do so, He will guide us by His Holy Spirit along the unique way that leads to healing and wholeness and the ability to fulfill the great purposes He has for our lives! 

Abba, we thank you today for the restoration of our soul and life and for leading us in the way that is right for us, in YESHUA’S Name we pray, Amen!

Blessings,

Pastor Bruce & Suzi Elman

Misplaced Priorities

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

There is always a penalty for misplaced priorities (Luke12:6-21)! That Scripture reference is about a foolish man who passed away with no opportunity to enjoy his goods, and even worse, he died with a bankrupt soul (missed out on Heaven)!

We as believers must make service for GOD our main concern. Serving the LORD and His Kingdom is the key to setting correct goals. Life is not something that simply happens to people. Where you are today is largely determined by the way you prioritized your concerns in previous months and years.

This means we can positively impact our future by organizing our priorities according to biblical guidelines!

Matt. 6:20
But lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.

Let’s not be like the rich, foolish man in YESHUA’S parable in Luke 12, who only provided for himself and not for others. He also provided for his body (flesh) and not for his spirit! While making provision for his present life here on earth, he gave no thought to his life to come (eternity).
