Thought for Today: Thursday July 24
If I must compare, I would say that the people of this world today, has become like the people in Jeremiah’s day. Jeremiah 8:12: “they have no shame at all, they do not even know how to blush!” If people, and some believers, wants to be pure and holy, they must commit themselves --- mind, body and spirit --- completely to the Moshiach. You cannot hold back any area of your life from Him. Secondly, you have to avoid situations that may encourage impure thoughts or actions. And lastly, you must fill your heart and mind with the Moshiach by feeding your soul on a daily diet of prayer and YHVH’s Word. Faith in YHVH, and to follow the Moshiach is free.
What does it mean to produce fruits worthy of repentance? What happens if we don't produce fruit like that? Do we stay on God's angry list until we do? These are questions David Jones and Barry Phillips investigate in this conversation.

And they said, “If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants for a possession. Do not take us across the Jordan.”
Numbers 32:5
Reuben and Gad said that they wanted land east of the Jordan for purely economic reasons, but that's rarely a good reason to separate from the rest of God's people. The Jordan between them and the rest of the Kingdom is much like the barriers we inadvertently erect between us and God by an inappropriate focus on temporary gain.
What barriers do you tend to put up between yourself and the rest of the Kingdom? Between yourself and God?
The land that YHWH struck down before the congregation of Israel is a land for livestock, and your servants have livestock.
Numbers 32:4
This says that God struck the land of the Canaanites, but the land remained pleasant and fertile. He struck it so that it turned against its occupants. He owns the cattle and the hills beneath them. Use his resources wisely, because he can turn even your wealth against you.
The destiny of a people is tied to their land. God struck the land of the Canaanites because of their sin and they died. He blessed the land of Israel (the same land!) and the Israelites prospered.
