Building Choices

Doing work with a renovation company I have watched as they made decisions about projects. These decisions bring about results that impact the overall final product. This is also true with us as believer builders. We are meant to build up ourselves and each other.

Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

The choices we make in that regard impact the temple that is built here in this earth.

1 Corinthians 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

Choose wisely.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are King! Praise the name YAHUAH! Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here, on earth ass it is in heaven. Send me now Your provision. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, and help me to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I forgive them YAH, in the name of YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. I forgive them. Keep me from temptations YAH. Deliver me from the evil here and the evil plans men have for me. Destroy and confound their plans YAH. I love You. I love You. I love You. Send in the overwhelming prosperity YAH. Let it flow today. I love You. I love You. I love You. I ask all these things of You, Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Help Yourself

This can sound like a bad piece of advice. It may even sound like encouragement to be selfish and self centered. Obviously both of those would not be a good idea as believers. Let’s set those extremes aside. What is meant is that we have the ability to help ourselves or hurt ourselves. If we can take just a moment before our thoughts, words, and/or actions carry us away, we can choose the best option. We can choose to help ourselves, which is a good thing. Because we are human, there will likely be times when we make the wrong choice, and we choose things that harm us. To escape the damage and heal, which may take somme time, we need to turn to our King, YAHUAH. He is always loving toward His people. He alone is King. We need only love Him for He is our King.

2 Chronicles 7:13 If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;
14 if my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Father, help us. We need You.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here, on earth as it is in heaven. Send me now Your provision. Let it overflow. Let it overflow. I forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. Please forgive me for my trespasses and transgressions, YAH. Keep me from temptations YAH. Deliver me from the evil here and the evil plans men have for me. I love You. I love You, YAH. Confound their plans my King. I love You. I love You. I love You. Keep me in Your ways my King. I love You. I love You. I love You. Show me a sign for good that all men might know that You alone have done this my King. I love You. Show me Your visions YAH. I love You. I ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Longings Of The Heart

Humans are created to love and seek their Father, YAHUAH. Many, including me in the past, have eluded to an “empty space” inside us as humans that can only be filled by YAH. This can be an interesting comparison. For many years, it was the explanation I would come to when I had to try to explain the “feeling” of how YAH fulfills my need for Him in my life. It was a convenient way to explain comfort. Today, I would explain it differently. Today I would say that I think of it more like on very large and one very small tuning fork. The small fork “comes alive” with resonant vibrations when the large tuning fork vibrates. It is as if the small tuning fork is conscious, but unaware until it experiences a vibration, that it was meant to vibrate. Once it vibrates, because it is conscious, it longs to vibrate with the Master again. Somehow this seems more accurate to me. In scripture we find comparisons like this to animals and their longings.

Psalm 42:1 As the hart panteth after the water brooks,
So panteth my soul after thee, O God.

It is unclear to me if there is in fact a way to express the desire to be with YAH. It is a good desire, but an unclear one. I can feel the drive to do it. And I am very happy that I actually have that drive.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH. Praise the name YAHUAH! Let Your kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here, on earth as it is in heaven. Send me now Your provision. I love You. I love You. I forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I love You. I love You. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, YAH. I love You. I love You. I love You. Keep me from temptations YAH. Deliver me from the evil here and the evil plans men have for me. I love You. I love You. Help me to restore all those that have relied on me YAH. Restore unto me all that has been taken or held back in any way that I might restore others. Send in quickly the many coins YAH. Multitude upon multitude upon multitude of coins YAH, let them flow to me. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Freedom To Worship

Sometimes we are on a road that takes us to places we had never thought we would visit. As we look back there are many questions about the journey and the road. This is how my life has been, and from my conversations with others, many lives have been this way. What I am learning to do is shut off the noise. The noise is predominantly from the past. Smaller amounts of noise come from the future. But the present is where any of us exist and have impact. When we focus on YAH in the present, we plug in to have impact.

Matthew 6:34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

We are meant to rule the present, I believe. Each person must decide for themself what exactly they will do, or not do. For me, I am trying to stay connected to YAH, and to make a way for Him to work through me. This is all I know to do today.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are King. You alone are my King YAH. I love You. I love You. I love You. Let Your will be done here and Your kingdom come here on earth as it is in heaven. Send me now Your provision. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, and help me to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I forgive all those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I love You. Keep me from temptations YAH. Deliver me from the evil here and the evil plans men have for me. I love You. I love You. I love You. Let the whirlwinds blow and clear the path before me YAH. I love You. I love You. I love You. You are King, YAH. You are King. Thank You for sending the shalom, prosperity and healing that I might impact many YAH. I love You. I love You. I love You. Make it so today, my King. I love You. I love You. Let the restoration flow YAH. Let the restoration flow. I love You. You are my King. Make it so today YAH. I love You. I ask all these things of You Father, my King, O YAHUAH, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMasahiach. Amen.

Changing Perspective

What you see depends on where you stand. This is a concept I regularly taught as a trainer to industry for many many years. We make decisions based on what we “see” to be the facts at hand. This of course seems reasonable. We would not want to make our decisions in a vacuum. But what do we do on this occasions when the circumstances seem foreign to our expectations?

My initial reactions years ago was really assumption built upon assumption. And each of those decisions crafted yet another fact that I placed into the pattern that I was building in my mind. And all of that created a functional world in which I lived. And that is where I was standing. But if we take a moment and look at what I just wrote, we will see that that world was one of my own creation. And many layers were built from and upon assumption, and I lived inside the end result for most of my life. Even now, as I unpack this past, I am realizing more and more that I create the world in which I live. And as I realize this, I realize that knowing that fact should alter my reasoning position for taking in and interpreting data. We are creators of this world.

Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

My point is this. If you or I find ourselves in a scenario that we believe needs to be different, we need only submit to YAH for His will and guidance, and then in our minds change our perspectives and create a different view. Then we can live into that view.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Praise the name YAHUAH! Let Your kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here, on earth as it is in heaven. Send me now Your provision. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions YAH, and I forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I forgive them. And I love You. I love You YAH. Keep me in Your ways, YAH. Keep me in Your ways. I love You. I love You. I love You. Send to me the power to heal and the power to proclaim and the power to create prosperity my King. I command the whirlwinds blow today and create great wealth and healing all around me and for me. Let it be so today YAH. I love You. I love You. I love You. Thank You King. Help me too provide for those around me. Let it begin with 1.1 million. I love You. I love You. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

A Thank You Day

Today in the United States we honor those that have been in the military services. We honor them because they chose to give a portion of their lives to protect us all. This is valuable. Their lives and their service is valuable. Yes, it is true that it is YAH that ultimately protects us. But time and again in scriptures, YAH used the military to protect His land and His people.

Deuteronomy 20:1 When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and seest horses, and chariots, and a people more than thou, be not afraid of them: for the LORD thy God is with thee, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
2 And it shall be, when ye are come nigh unto the battle, that the priest shall approach and speak unto the people,
3 and shall say unto them, Hear, O Israel, ye approach this day unto battle against your enemies: let not your hearts faint, fear not, and do not tremble, neither be ye terrified because of them;
4 for the LORD your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.

We see here and many places in scripture where YAH is tied together with the military to defend His people. Today, I am thankful that YAH is with us.

That You my King.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are King. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Praise the name YAHUAH! Let Your kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here, on earth as it is in heaven. Send me now Your provision. YAH, I love You. I forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, and help me to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I love You. Keep me from temptations YAH. Deliver me from the evil here. I declare the evil plans that mankind has for me dissolved and destroyed and gone forever. Forgive them YAH, they don’t know. They don’t know. I love You. Bless the many warriors that went to defend us YAH. Heal and be with them. I love You. I love You. I love You. You are King. Thank you for the whirlwinds You have sent for me to defend me YAH. I love You. Let the shalom flow. Let Your peace be where I go. I ask these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Don’t Add Fear To The Battle

It is most likely true for many if not all believers that we find ourselves facing fear as a part of our spiritual warfare. And equally likely others have had the experience I am about to share. For the last few years there has been a looming event coming in my life. In the last few days it has reared its ugly head. And of course with it came a certain dread, a certain fear.

Last night there was a shift where I was able to set that fear aside it seemed. I understood it for what it was, something outside of me, a belief, and subject to the King’s authority. I was in a situation where I literally had to choose to set it aside because I had to concentrate on the present moment. And when that all happened, I realized that it is separate from me, it is not something real but imagined, and only. becomes real when I allow myself to dwell on it.

This morning when I awoke, I still had that same perspective. What is interesting about this point is that often when I awake I am attacked with a myriad of thoughts, and fear has been in that montage. This morning I have seen it still as separate from me. As I am writing about it, it tries to return. I just sang about victory out loud and it helped. This is real time reporting. It seems that WE are the ones that ADD fear to our battle. We do not have to add fear.

We can separate fear from the elements of the battle and reject the fear!

This is a part of the message from YAH when He has said so often to so many, “Fear not!”

Deuteronomy 20:1 When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and seest horses, and chariots, and a people more than thou, be not afraid of them: for the LORD thy God is with thee, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
2 And it shall be, when ye are come nigh unto the battle, that the priest shall approach and speak unto the people,
3 and shall say unto them, Hear, O Israel, ye approach this day unto battle against your enemies: let not your hearts faint, fear not, and do not tremble, neither be ye terrified because of them;
4 for the LORD your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Praise the name YAHUAH! Let Your kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here, on earth as it is in heaven. Send me now Your overwhelming provision. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, and help me to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I love You. I love You. I love You. Father, I choose to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I choose to be more like You everyday YAH. Keep me from temptations YAH. Deliver me from the evil here and the evil in the plans mankind has for me. I confound those plans YAH. Let the thunders roar against the plans such that they are dissolved YAH. I love You. Let the coins flow. Let the coins flow YAH. I speak health and prosperity YAH to all that I touch and to me in the name of Yeshuah HaMashiach. Restore now my King. I praise the name YAH for the restoration dedicated and proclaimed in the heavens unto me YAH. I love You. I know You hear me now. I know You hear Your people YAH. Rise up my King. I love You. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Brother Builder

We are sometimes reminded that we are meant to build up our brothers and sisters. We are reminded by the daily routines and activities in our lives. For example, I find myself heading off to do some work in construction, which is a form of building. As I build, or in this case remodel, I can be reminded how important it is to consider others in it all. As I spend my day, various people come to mind. When they come to mind, I pray for them and bless them in the name of YAH. And I do my best to sing to YAH everyday. Because of these things I do, these people are built up in Messiah.

Colossians 3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
13 forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Praise the name YAHUAH! Let Your kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here, on earth as it is in heaven. Send me now Your provision. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, and I forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I love You. I love You. Keep me from temptations YAH. Deliver me from the evil here. I declare the plans for evil destroyed YAH. I declare YAHUAH is King. He is my King. I love You. Send in the overflowing blessing YAH. I release the whirlwinds to deliver to me today the coins and the prosperity overflowing. I love You YAH. I love You YAHUAH. I love You Yeshuah. My King. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Getting Back Up

Solomon prayed an interesting prayer to YAHUAH about the nation of Israel, which I believe applies to all people.

2 Chronicles 6:12 And he stood before the altar of the LORD in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands:
13 for Solomon had made a brasen scaffold, of five cubits long, and five cubits broad, and three cubits high, and had set it in the midst of the court: and upon it he stood, and kneeled down upon his knees before all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven,
14 and said, O LORD God of Israel, there is no God like thee in the heaven, nor in the earth; which keepest covenant, and shewest mercy unto thy servants, that walk before thee with all their hearts:

21 Hearken therefore unto the supplications of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, which they shall make toward this place: hear thou from thy dwelling place, even from heaven; and when thou hearest, forgive.

36 If they sin against thee, (for there is no man which sinneth not,) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them over before their enemies, and they carry them away captives unto a land far off or near;
37 yet if they bethink themselves in the land whither they are carried captive, and turn and pray unto thee in the land of their captivity, saying, We have sinned, we have done amiss, and have dealt wickedly;
38 if they return to thee with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity, whither they have carried them captives, and pray toward their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, and toward the city which thou hast chosen, and toward the house which I have built for thy name:
39 then hear thou from the heavens, even from thy dwelling place, their prayer and their supplications, and maintain their cause, and forgive thy people which have sinned against thee.

And YAH responded with mercy as He always does. What YAHUAH said to Solomon applies today to us also, I believe.

2 Chronicles 7:12 And the LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice.
13 If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;
14 if my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

This is encouraging to me, because I, too, am human and fail YAH at times. But I know that I have a path back to Him and to learning to do even better.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Praise the name YAHUAH! Let Your kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here on earth as it is in heaven. Send me now Your provision. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, and help me to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I forgive them Father. I forgive them now. Let the coins and paper flow YAH. Let that be today. Release the funds. I call to the whirlwind spirits that You alone have shown me. Deliver to me today what YAH has set apart for me. YAH is King. YAHUAH alone is King. Keep me from temptations YAH. And when I stumble and call to You, forgive me YAH. Deliver me from the evil plans that men have for me. Turn the hearts of rulers YAH that I might have You and Your deliverance in a mighty way. Let them say from their own mouths one day that they changed their mind. You alone are King. Give me favor, O my King, with all mankind. Deliver me. Favor me, O King. Reign, O my King, reign. I love You. I love You. I love You. I call to blessing and say, “Wealth and prosperity, you are here with me now!” I call to blessing and say, “Healing and miracles, you are with me now!” I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMasshiach. Amen.

The Coming Need

There is a time coming to this earth that will cause the hearts of men to turn to You, O King. To those who read this today, prepare yourselves by softening your hearts and spending time with our King, YAHUAH. He alone can deliver in the dark days ahead. The days are only dark if we do not let in His light, for He alone is our King and worthy to be praised. Do not be afraid, for YAHUAH has a plan.

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
12 Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.
13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

Remember, and becomforted in this, that our Father is in complete control and will always respond to the call of His children.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here, on earth as it is in heaven. Send me now Your overwhelming provision YAH. Let it be so. Let it be so. I love You. I love You. I forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions YAH. Keep me from temptations YAH. Deliver me from the evil here and the evil plans men have for me. Give me favor and dissolve those plans my King. I love You. I love You. O my King, raise up the funding and the blessing and the prosperity that You alone have proclaimed YAH. I love You. I love You. I love You. Deliver me. Show me a sign for good O King, that all men might know that You alone have done this. Be remarkable my King. Be remarkable. I love You. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.
