Yom Shishi, Elul 5, 6003 – August 17, 2018

Just Keep Trying

There are moments in life when we make choices that matter. Actually, that may be almost continuous. It seems to me that a big part of the trick is to not fight the future battles. Don’t even fight tomorrow’s battles. Focus on the moment.

Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

If we will stay “in the moment”, the battles get much easier. It is never about what is way down the road. It is always about what is right here, right now. What is immediately in front of you, trying to sway you to do something off God’s path, resist that moment. Get up and move if you have to and talk to yourself saying the right thing. You may still make mistakes, but you will make fewer. And you will get better and better at making the right choices. Focus on that moment. Resistance in that moment will work!

James 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

We can make it! Just keep trying!

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here in the hearts and minds of mankind. Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven, perfectly. Send us now Your provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed against us. Forgive us. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore Your people. Restore unto Your people one thousandfold all that has been taken or held back of that which is good, and the more besides. Deliver us from the evil here, please Father, we pray. Send in quickly the $423,923,962.53 that we might use it to promote the kingdom of God in the hearts, minds, and bodies of the people here. We ask all these things of You, Father, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiak. Amen.
