Empty-handed.
Our Heavenly Father says “go”. Go where He says, follow His instructions. He’ll take care of the details.

(H7387 - רֵיקָם) - reyqam
The Hebrew word given in Scripture is translated: Without effect or cause, Vain or void, Empty or Empty-handed.

Jacob spoke of our Heavenly Father not letting him be empty-handed as he left Laban in Haran. Our Heavenly Father instructs us to not send a bondservant away empty-handed when released. The resources to live, continue in obedience, or start life new are promised to those who have faith to walk in obedience to our Father’s Way. He also promises in Isaiah that when it goes forth, His word will not return void (empty-handed).

A dear friend of ours was telling us about how they were reading the story about Ruth and their son loved the term empty-handed, which sparked a great conversation. Ruth is one of the best examples of love, mercy, obedience, redemption, and grafting-in recorded in Scripture. It is a great example that ties all of us in to the promises given the Bible.

Our Heavenly Father has given us perfect instructions with which to follow. He has promised to take care of our journey so we know what will happen when we faithfully obey. His Way alone is Truth. His away alone brings Life.

Your Life Matters!
Choose Truth. Choose Life.
Enjoy our God-given day of rest!
Shabbat Shalom (Sabbath Peace)!
