Never Alone

Some time ago YAH showed me this amazing vision. I was hovering in the air over a vibrant light aqua blue mass that seemed gelatinous in nature, but almost glowing. As I looked about 200 yards ahead I saw that it was split apart a certain distance and still splitting. I moved forward in my hover and came to the edge of the split. About 75-100 feet below was dry ground and a man in a robe walking into the splitting area. It was splitting in front of him. The man was me, and YAH was parting this great overflowing body of water in front of me as I walked forward. I was by myself, except I know YAH was with me. And YAH was assuring me I would be okay.

Isaiah 43:2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

These are the things that YAH does do and will do for each of us. We are never alone. He is always with us.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. I exalt You, for You alone are my King. I praise Your name YAH! I 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 that it might overflow, that it might overflow to those in need. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, and help me to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me. Deliver me from the evil here, and the evil men have planned for me. Keep me from temptations YAH. Keep me on Your path. Thank You for the rain. Thank You for this property. Raise me up, and let me teach Your ways, O King. I love You. I ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Just So Glad

That is how I feel this morning for sure. I am just so glad that YAH never gives up on me. I struggle so often and am learning to press through more than I have maybe ever. Yesterday, or perhaps it is better said, last night, I had a significant struggle for me. And I made my way through it. This morning, although I still have concerns about those issues, I find that I can be thankful that YAH is still King and on my side.I can still press on to the end.

Isaiah 40:3 The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
4 Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain:
5 and the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
6 The voice said, Cry. And he said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field:
7 the grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass.
8 The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. I cry to You O King that the earth may be full of Your love and compassion and shalom. 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. Deliver me from the evil the enemy has planned for me, and from the evil that men have planned for me. You alone are my King. You alone are my King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here, on earth as it is in heaven. Let Your glory show forth and Your power show forth that this is Your place. I need You and I love You. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Speaking Is Fighting

Today as I was doing my morning walk with YAH, I found myself talking out loud the positive things I need for my mind to be thinking about. It was very good for me. It made me think about Him and His ways. It helped me to consider better choices than I have made at various times in the past. It helped me to build up my belief that I can make a difference in my life and in the lives of others by reaching out to people, and importantly, by speaking out loud. I have known for many years about the importance of the words I speak. And yet I am still someone that needs to remember to speak. We have so many examples in the scriptures about this very thing, especially from our Messiah.

Mark 11:20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. 21And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are my King. Praise Your name YAHUAH! 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 that it might overflow to those in need. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, and help me to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed agaisnst me. Deliver me from the evil here. Deliver me from the evil plans that men have for me. I need You. I need, and I love You. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Hook A Brother Up

This is a phrase used today to ask a friend to help in some way. Personally, I like how it sounds. Mostly I think I like the use of the term brother. It makes me think of the way. that I would like to feel about the fellowship of the believers. I am just not certain that I do in fact feel that way. Mostly I feel as though we are on our guard around pretty much everyone. Should it be that way? I do not know the answer to that either. I do know the picture that some scriptures provide, and it sounds very good to me.

Psalms 133:1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is
For brethren to dwell together in unity!
2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard,
Even Aaron’s beard: That went down to the skirts of his garments;
3 As the dew of Hermon,
And as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion:
For there the LORD commanded the blessing,
Even life for evermore.

Perhaps one day we shall see it…

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are my 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. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, and help me to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me. Deliver me from the evil plans that men have for me. Keep me in Your ways, my King. Keep me in Your ways. This is Your place and power and glory. I ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yesuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Flurry And Blurry

If you get yourself into a place where it seems as if life is going by so fast, everything is blurry, maybe take a deep breath. I do not say that in such a situation it is important to stop altogether, or that you are too busy, or any other judgement. There are times where life gets very busy, and that is okay. It is okay because we need to have a time in our lives when God does what seems like a lot. There will also be times when it seems like not so much is happening. In all these the most important thing is, you and YAH. If we keep our relationship with YAH in a good place, we have a much better chance of surviving it all, right? We must just do as Joshua did.

Joshua 1:7 Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.
8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are my King. Praise the name YAHUAH! 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, and let it be I pray sufficient to overflow to those around me. I need You now, O King. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, and help me to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me. Deliver me from the evil here, and the evil plans men have for me. Keep me from temptations, YAH, for I want to follow You. You are my. King. This is Your place, Your power, and Your glory forever. I ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Peace Can Be Yours

When I think of comfort this morning, I guess the first thought is of shalom. There is a certain peace that YAH has intended for His people, and we can have that peace. If we will be present in the life we lead to the idea that YAH is ever present with us, then that shalom is much more readily attainable. That almost sounds incorrect. When I say attainable I am referring to the idea that it is always there for us. We have access to it. It is on each of us to grab hold of that comfort that is present. YAH is good.

Psalms 21:1 The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD;
And in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
2 Thou hast given him his heart’s desire,
And hast not withholden the request of his lips.
Selah.
3 For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness:
Thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.
4 He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him,
Even length of days for ever and ever.
5 His glory is great in thy salvation:
Honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.
6 For thou hast made him most blessed for ever:
Thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.
7 For the king trusteth in the LORD,
And through the mercy of the Most High he shall not be moved.
8 Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies:
Thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.
9 Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger:
The LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth,
And their seed from among the children of men.
11 For they intended evil against thee:
They imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.
12 Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back,
When thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them.
13 Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength:
So will we sing and praise thy power.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. Yes, my King, I exalt You and Your power. You made this place, now let You 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. I need You. I need You. I need You, Daddy. Deliver me from the evil here. Keep me from temptations. It is Your place, power, and glory, forever. I ask all these things of You Father, King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Resting And Thinking

Some days on the Sabbath I do well with resting. Other times I can find myself thinking too much about what it is I intend to be doing with my life, with this or with that – and I just lose my sense of rest. It is in these times that I find myself too absorbed in “the realities” of the life around me. I need to find other ways to escape those thoughts. I need to take control to be at rest. And this is my point. Rest does not, in my view, mean no effort. Rest in fact means a decided effort to wrestle to the ground the part of me that is distracted. This can be easy or it can seem difficult. In either case, it is important for me to do it, to just take hold and surrender to YAH.

Psalms 24:1 The earth is the LORD’s, and the fulness thereof;
The world, and they that dwell therein.
2 For he hath founded it upon the seas,
And established it upon the floods.
3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD?
Or who shall stand in his holy place?
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart;
Who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receive the blessing from the LORD,
And righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 This is the generation of them that seek him,
That seek thy face, O Jacob.
Selah.
7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates;
And be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; And the King of glory shall come in.
8 Who is this King of glory?
The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.
9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors;
And the King of glory shall come in.
10 Who is this King of glory?
The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory.
Selah.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are may 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. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, and help me to forgive those that have trespassed or trans dressed against me. I need You now. Deliver me from the evil here ands from the evil plans that men have for me. Keep me in Your ways O King. I love You. Keep me from temptations. I love You. I love You. I ask all these things of You Father King sin the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Alive and Kicking!

It is imperative for me to always move forward in a definite way – YAH’s way. It seems that no matter how concerned I am for the busy-ness of life, the challenges, etc., I have a path to peace in front of me. It is YAH’s path, and it always has, is now, and will in the future, lead me to shalom. Shalom is that place of peace from wholeness. We can enjoy that peace if we will take the time to seek YAH early in the day. It makes it very possible for us to make our way His way. Even now I can feel the release – me releasing thoughts that are not part of this path. I can see my future with Him, proclaiming His truth and changing lives. What are we willing to do in this regard? We are the agents of change here in this earth. It is what we are meant to be. Praise YAH!

Psalms 29:1 Give unto the LORD, O ye mighty, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
2 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name;
Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
3 The voice of the LORD is upon the waters:
The God of glory thundereth:
The LORD is upon many waters.
4 The voice of the LORD is powerful;
The voice of the LORD is full of majesty.
5 The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars;
Yea, the LORD breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.
6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf;
Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.
7 The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire.
8 The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.
9 The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests:
And in his temple doth every one speak of his glory.
10 The LORD sitteth upon the flood;
Yea, the LORD sitteth King for ever.
11 The LORD will give strength unto his people;
The LORD will bless his people with peace.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. I love You, my King! 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. Deliver me O King, from the evil plans men have for me. Show me the path to walk to walk away from all these things. Lead me away from the temptations here. Lad me away from doubts my king. I praise Your name. I Praise Your name. I praise the name YAHUAH, O King. Thank You for being my King. I ask that You would reign over me, and rain down shalom and prosperity. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Still Crankin’, Still Thankful

These days as there is so much to address in life, it becomes very helpful for me to just appreciate the moment. This moment. An this moment. And so on. I have come to realize that while I am to do my work, take care of my family, and be a good person to the community, above all I am meant to spend moments with YAH. I am to enjoy those moments. And for me, the funny thing is, when I go through this slow down and come to the present moment, talk with YAH, sing to YAH, etc., life just is better. It makes more sense. It seems more real.

Psalms 84:9 Behold, O God our shield,
And look upon the face of thine anointed.
10 For a day in thy courts
Is better than a thousand.
I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God,
Than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield:
The LORD will give grace and glory: No good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
12 O LORD of hosts,
Blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.

Thank You, YAH. You are King!

Prayer
Father, I exalt, I exalt You. O YAH, You are King, my King. 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 us. Deliver me from the evil here. I need You now to help me through. Show me Your ways. Keep me from temptations, O King. I love You. This is Your place and power and glory YAH. Let the people know that You alone are King. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Mind Battle

Every day we are at war. Some days it may not seem like we are, but those are just the days when we are not necessarily on the front lines of the revealed warfare. That is the nature of spiritual warfare. It is very present, but sometimes just hidden. This is nowhere more true than in the battle for the mind. YAH gives us the opportunity to win and overcome those that are against us. We may think it is people. Sometimes it is. Overwhelmingly it is the dark forces of the insignificant one that are against us. Even when it is people, most often they are driven or at least enabled by the work of the spiritual darkness of which they are likely unaware.

2 Corinthians 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
4 (for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
5 casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
6 and having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

As Paul suggests here, it often begins with us in our minds. For me, it has been a challenge to clear my mind at times. One of the reasons I have struggled is that I accept what the world arounds me calls reality, and that I have to be in reaction to it. But the scriptures paint a very different picture. We are creating the world by our thoughts, words, and beliefs tied to actions. My current efforts surround trying to remember to address these points in my life from YAH’s perspective, and therefore create His world.

The best way to win a spiritual battle is to make it impossible for the enemy to exist. That is the world I strive to create.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. I exalt You. You alone are my King. You alone are my everything. You mean everything to me. Let Your kingdom come here, and 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. Deliver me from the evil here, and the evil plans mankind has for me, O YAH. Thank You for showing me a path to clarity, to Your path. Help me be victorious in thinking only of You. Keep me from the temptations YAH. Yours is this kingdom and power and all the glory. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.
