Life with Yahweh is truth.
He promises blessings, yet we receive persecution from many sides. Even THAT can be seen as blessing.
Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven. For that is how they persecuted the prophets who were before you. - Matt. 5:12
Today, I have a downloadable/shareable/post-it-on-your-refrigerator-able group of scriptures. Lately, I have been underlining all the encouraging words in Proverbs, the ones that are contrasted with the warnings.
It goes like this:
Sin has consequences | Obedience has blessings.
So, when I read through, I see both the negative side of walking one’s own path and the positive side of walking the path (The Way) of Yahweh and His Salvation. It, of course, is more than what happens at the end. It’s more than, “Give me my life everlasting,” and “peace out.” It’s an abundance of life that can be felt inwardly and seen outwardly. In other words. It’s real.
I picked seven (a good number) for you from Proverbs 12. I hope they bless you.
Many blessings as you walk the “Way of Righteousness.” To Yah be the glory. Amen.
