Day 46 Omer Count– Sivan 3 - May 23

Tuesday 5-23-23 3rd. Day Of The Weekly Cycle, Sivan 3 5783, 65th. Spring Day

Netzach of Malchut: Endurance in Nobility

Psalm 118:10-16; Psalm 146:10


Psalm 118:10-16, Psalm 146:10 - King James Version

All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them. They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.

They compassed me about like bees: they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me. The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.

A person's dignity and a leader's success are tested by his endurance level.

Will and determination reflect the power and majesty of the human spirit. How determined am I in reaching my goals?

How strong is my conviction to fight for a dignified cause? How confident am I in myself?

Is my lack of endurance a result of my low self-esteem?

Do I mask my insecurities by finding other excuses for my low endurance level?

Exercise for the day: Act on something that you believe in but have until now been tentative about. Take the leap and just do it!

Love, Walter and Debbie

Those verses are clear that the king, probably David, is called to fight against the Canaanites whom Israel left in the land of promise against God's will. According to the New Testament (for example, Ephesians 6:10-20), our enemies are the devil and the demons. Therefore, we need to seek God's "armor" to fight that larger battle against those evil forces who want us to fail in advancing God's church and kingdom on the earth. Believers seek God's kingdom and his righteousness, not their own goals.
