Rejoice in Being Purified
That the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
1 Peter 1:7
Scripture reading:
2 Corinthians 4:7–5:9
What does God mean to you in trials and temptations,it is purification of the Spirit.
Gold perishes, but faith never perishes; it is more precious than gold, though it may be tried with fire. the trial of your faith is much more precious than gold that perishes.

Elected by God
To the pilgrims of the Dispersion…elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit.
1 Peter 1:1–2
Scripture reading:
1 Thessalonians 1:2–7; 4:3–12
Humanity, flesh, and natural things are all against divine things. Evil powers work upon this position of the human life, especially when the will is unyielded to God. Then, the powers of darkness rise up against the powers of divine order, but they never defeat them. Divine order is very often in the minority, but always in the majority.
Shabbat Shalom u’Mevorach-שבת

A Spirit of Hunger and Thirst
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled. Matthew 5:6 Scripture reading: Hebrews 1:8–9; 2:1–18
We must emphasize that God will not fail to fill us. No man can “hunger and thirst after righteousness” unless God has put the desire in him. This righteousness is the righteousness of Jesus.
I must see that Jesus is my perfect righteousness. He came by the power of God.
the divine touches of heaven never leave you stationary but rather increase your thirst and appetite for greater things. Something within makes you press on until you are empty of everything else so that you may be filled with what God is pressing in. Amen

A Spirit of Meekness
Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. —lMatthew 5:5
Scripture reading: Isaiah 11:1–9
God wants us to rejoice today. He has brought us into this blessed place so that we may mourn and then rejoice.
Only God can make people right. Only melted gold is minted. Only moistened clay accepts the mold. Only softened wax receives the seal. Only broken, contrite hearts receive the mark as the Potter turns us on His wheel. Oh, Lord, give us that blessed state where we are perfectly and wholly made meek. Amen
