From Messianic Jewish Alliance of America General Secretary – Joel Chernoff   June 21, 2024 Meanwhile, the child Samuel kept growing and increasing in favor both with Adonai and also with men. But now declares Adonai (the Lord), far be it from Me! For I will honor those who honor Me, but those who despise Me will be disdained. (TLV) I Samuel 2:26, 30b   Nosh: Obedience to God produces a chain reaction of blessing. First, favor and honor from God, then God promotes favor and honor in our interactions with those around us. We lift him up and honor Him, and He does the same for us. www.mjaa.org
