Taking The Challenge

Life has a way of offering us challenges. We can accept those and do something about them, or not. Our challenge is to do something that gets us further along in life. And we need to do those things when times are the toughest. Today is one of those days. We must find a way to move forward.

Philippians 3:13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Let’s press on.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here, an earth as it is in heaven. Send us now Your provision that we might overflow to those around us. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore unto Your people one thousandfold all the prosperity that has been taken or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. We ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen and Amen.

Catching Up?

Sometimes I get behind in my writings here. Then I get back on track. But when we go through this kind of a work, do we really catch up? YAH is always on the move, making things happen towards the end of Him restoring His people and His planet. Yes, we get the work complete, but what do we miss? This is not said to condemn. It is said to try to understand time better, and to make sure we use it well.

Ephesians 5:15 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

Today, let’s use our time wisely.

Prayer
Father, we 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 us now Your provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Deliver us from the evil here. Send us now the treasures of heaven. Send us now the treasures of earth. Send us the prosperity that we might deliver Your kingdom to many. We ask all these things in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Sun And Moon

Sometimes when I need some encouragement, I just think of the sun and the moon. Every day, they rise and fall. Out there, in the universe, they just keep doing what they were created to do. And they never stop.

Jeremiah 33:19 And the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah, saying,
20 Thus saith the Lord; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season;
21 Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.
22 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me.

Some things are just established. Our place with God is just like that.

Prayer
Father, we 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 us Your provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore unto Your people one thousandfold all the good that has been taken or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. We ask all these things in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

If We Keep Trying

Clearly we have a ways to go. It is the rest of our life. But we have a promise that we will make it.

Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

So what we can do, is just keep trying. Scriptures encourage us here as well.

Philippians 3:13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
15 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.
16 Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.

Today, as we think about our walk, let us be quick to do the right thing, and to turn to YAH for the way back if we stray. We can do this, with His help.

Prayer
Father, we 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 us now Your provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore unto Your people all the good that has been taken or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. We ask all these things of You Father, in the name YAH Yeshuah Hamashiach. We need You. We need You. We need You. Amen.

Traveling On

It is always interesting for me when I travel far enough that the time zone changes. There is something about it that seems to affect my body in odd ways. Like my biological clock needs for me to physically “see” the time on a clock to be reset. And my metabolism gets a little strange. I think when we look at our spiritual lives, we have some similar tendencies. When we are on a spiritual trek, we need to remember to “stretch our legs” and practice what we know. If we do this, it helps us to stay on track. If we do not do this, then we risk becoming lost, and waking p one day far from our objective.

1 Samuel 12:20 And Samuel said unto the people, Fear not: ye have done all this wickedness: yet turn not aside from following the Lord, but serve the Lord with all your heart;
21 And turn ye not aside: for then should ye go after vain things, which cannot profit nor deliver; for they are vain.
22 For the Lord will not forsake his people for his great name’s sake: because it hath pleased the Lord to make you his people.
23 Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the Lord in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way:
24 Only fear the Lord, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you.

Our Father is always there for us. If we stray, we need only return, and He will comfort us.

Prayer
Father, we 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 us now Your provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have transgressed or trespassed against us. Thank you for all Your provision. Restore unto Your people one thousandfold all the good that has been taken or held back in any way, and the more besides. We ask all these things of You Father, our King, and we ask them in the name YAH Yeshah HaMashiach. Amen and Amen.

Memorial Day

In the U.S., today is a National holiday in which we remember and honor all those that have served in the military. For many it is a day off from work. For others it is more of a challenge to get through because they lost a loved one in battle. And for others it can be an even bigger struggle because they lost a fellow soldier in the battle they were in at the time. It is unfortunate that we find our selves with these various challenges. But we can make it through them with YAH on our side.

Matthew 5:4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

Prayer
Father, we 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 us now Your provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore unto Your people all that has been taken or held back in any way of that which is good, and the more besides. We ask all these things of You Father, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Have Courage

Courage comes sometimes by acting courageous in the midst of tough times because we trust God. The psalmist makes this plain.

Psalms 27:14 Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.

Another way to translate this is to say eagerly look for Yahuah, and act (look) like a person of strength, and then Yahuah will put strength in your heart. Therefore eagerly anticipate Yahuah.

This is really great to understand. God has always looked for those willing to stand for Him. He does the rest.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your will be done here and let Your kingdom come here on earth as it is in heaven. Send us now Your provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore unto Your people all the blessings and prosperity that has been promised and has been taken or held back in any way, and that one thousandfold. We ask all these things of You Father, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Just Enough, And Then Some

We can know that there will always be enough for us. We will always receive what we need. And likely, there will be some leftover. This happened in miracles in scripture from the time of Abraham to the time of Yeshuah. Yahuah yireh.

John 6:2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.
3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, saith unto him,
9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.

If we seek the Father, He will reveal the Messiah and the plan for us to have what we need, plus what those around us need, plus some left over.

Be not afraid, for our Messiah, Yeshuah HaMashiach, has come into this world to save us.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH. Let Your kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Send us Your provision, that it might overflow, and that there be more left over. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore unto Your people one thousandfold all the good that has been taken of held back in any way, and the more besides. We ask all these things of You Father, in the name YAH Yeshuah Hamashiach. Amen.

Catching Up

We may not always keep up, but we can always “catch up” with God. It is simple, really, we just turn to Him, and He turns to us.

Zechariah 1:3 Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith the Lord of hosts, and I will turn unto you, saith the Lord of hosts.

No matter where we are, let’s turn to YAH!

Prayer
Father, we 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 us Your provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore unto Your people one thousandfold all the good that has been taken or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. We ask all these things of You Father in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Encouragement

Watching so many different people talk about their fears, it is interesting to see how important others can be in our lives. We need encouragement. The question becomes where do we look for it to get it. Scriptures are a great source. We are all a great source of encouragement to each other. But a very powerful source for us, maybe the most important, is ourselves. Paul quoted Moses in this regard.

Romans 10:6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)
7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Moses was not describing a process solely for keeping the Law, as Paul proves with His statement. Both were describing the method by which we accomplish life, make changes, and have the power to bring about those things for which we search. Encouragement is no different.

Today, and hopefully everyday, let’s use this to encourage ourselves and others.

Prayer
Father, we 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 us now Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Restore unto Your people all the goods and goodness that has been taken or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. Send in quickly the $423,483,962.53 that we might use it to promote the kingdom of YAH here in this earth. We ask all these things of You Father, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.
