DAILY GUIDANCE FROM ELOHIM DEVOTIONAL - Thursday, July 3rd, 2025
Yom Chamishi (יוֹם חֲמִישִׁי), 7th of Tammuz, 5785 (Hebrew Calendar)
But as we have been approved by Elohim to be entrusted with the Good News, so we speak, not as pleasing men, but Elohim who proves our hearts. 1 Thessalonians 2:4 TS2009
There will always be people who don’t approve of you. They don’t approve of the way you look, the way you talk, the things you care about, the styles you like, or the music you listen to. But that’s okay, because the only approval you need is Elohim’s approval. The truth is, these people’s opinions don’t matter one bit. There is only one opinion that truly matters—Elohim’s. It is entirely up to you whether you let them ruin your day or if you decide to take the high road and accept yourself just the way Elohim made you. Always be kind, honest, sincere, and do your best, because that is what Elohim expects. It may not be good enough for some people, but it will surely be good enough for the right people. Elohim did not place you on this earth to please everyone. He placed you here to please Him—by serving Him, fulfilling His purpose for you, and building His Reign. That is what life is really all about.
LET'S PRAY: Elohim, our Sovereign Creator, You are my Good Shepherd. This means that I am well taken care of, and as long as I believe in You and do Your good works, I shall not lack anything good. Yahweh, I offer You my thanksgiving for all You have done for me. I come before You with songs of praise, for this is Your will. I am in awe of Your greatness. I am blessed to be one of Your creations, and I believe I am a masterpiece. Thank You, Father, for including me in Your master plan and allowing me to participate in Your glorious works on earth. In the Set-Apart Name of Yeshua (יהושע) we pray, Amen.
