Hebraic Musing – Who Should I Be Like According to
Scripture?
Today, I will be...
Like Paul, I will forget the past
and press forward. Phil. 3:13
Like David, I will lift my eyes
unto the hills, from where my help comes.
Ps. 121:1
Like Abraham, I will trust in
YHVH. Romans 4:20-21
Like Enoch, I will walk in daily
fellowship with Abba. Gen. 5:23
Like Jehoshaphat, I will seek
YHVH. 2 Chron. 20:3
Like Moses, I choose to suffer
with the persecuted, than have an easy life of sinners. Heb. 11:25
Like Daniel, I will commune with
YHVH. Daniel 6:10
Like Job, I will be patient. Job 6:11
Like Caleb and Joshua, I will
refuse to be discouraged. Num. 14:8-9
Like Gideon, I will advance,
trusting YHVH to defeat my enemies.
Judges 6:15-16
Like Aaron and Hur, uphold
others, in prayer. Exod. 17:12
Like Andrew, strive to bring
others to Messiah. John 1:41
Like Stephen, I will forgive
those who hurt me. Acts 7:60
Like Paul, I will press on toward
the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Phil.3:13
No wonder Almighty God’s Holy Scriptures required so many biblical
characters just to convey His love and plan for our lives!
Points
to ponder
Are these worthwhile
reflections for first thing in the morning?
As Paul said, “Be
imitators of me, as I am of Christ”. 1 Corinth. 11:1 RSV
