Preparing For War

We often in the “church” community speak about spiritual battles. This is good, but what does it mean to prepare for war? What should I be doing as a faithful follower of YAH to be prepared for what comes my way? One thing that seems reasonable is to be prepared by reading scripture. Praying to YAH and listening to Him for His direction as well.

Proverbs 4:1 Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father,
And attend to know understanding.
2 For I give you good doctrine,
Forsake ye not my law.
3 For I was my father’s son,
Tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother.
4 He taught me also, and said unto me,
Let thine heart retain my words:
Keep my commandments, and live.
5 Get wisdom, get understanding:
Forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.
6 Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee:
Love her, and she shall keep thee.
7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom:
And with all thy getting get understanding.
8 Exalt her, and she shall promote thee:
She shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.
9 She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace:
A crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH. Praise the name YAHUAH! Let Your kingdom come here and Your will be done here, on earth as it is in heaven. Send me now Your provision. I forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions, as I have forgiven those that have trespassed or transgressed against me. 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. I seek favor with You Father. I seek favor with the ALJ. Give me great favor YAH. I love You. Let the coins flow to me YAH. I love You. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Singing To Win

From the title one might think I was referring to some sort of singing contest like American Idol. LOL. I am not. I am referring to the power in singing for YAH. I am still trying to wrap my head around the idea completely but I know that it is true. YAH does something for us that we cannot do for ourselves. He fights for us. And He sings over us.

Zephaniah 3:14 Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.
15 The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the LORD, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more.
16 In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not: and to Zion, Let not thine hands be slack.
17 The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.

And we are told to build ourselves up with spiritual songs.

Ephesians 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;
19 speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
20 giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Sing!

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are King. You are my King YAH, and I love You! Praise the name YAHUAH! 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 I forgive 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. Give me strength my King. Help me sing. Help me sing. I love You. Overwhelm me with coins YAH. Overwhelm me with fulfillment that I might overflow to those around me. I love You. I love You. You are my King. I ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Facing Physical Challenges

When we are facing what seems like challenges in the physical world. If we are willing to trust YAH, we can overcome these challenges. We need to only believe. That is not trite talk. That is down to your last breath sincere. When we have challenges we learn who we really are. Then we can believe… or not.

Mark 11:20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
21 And 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.

Talking and singing to our bodies is one of the ways that we win.

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. I forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me now. I love You. Forgive me my trespassed and transgressions as I have forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I love You. Keep me from temptation 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 coins overflow toward me now Father. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Taking Steps

It is important for me to move forward as someone that is trying to improve. I don’t mean improve for the sake of improving. YAH has a plan for this place. By improving I mean moving ever closer to the plan that leads to the condition that I am meant to be in here in this life and prepared for the next. My goal is to get to the place where I am aware of YAH at all times and am serving YAH at all times. As much as I want to be doing that now, I am human and get caught up in human life. It is troubling for me to think that I still struggle, but maybe there is a message in that still struggling.

Philippians 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

There is something important about “now” that I am still learning. It is my “now” that I continue to try to find. I feel confident that it can be found. That is the journey I am on currently.

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. Let it overflow. Let it overflow YAH. I forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I love You. I love You.Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions as I have forgiven those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. I love You. Lead me away from temptations YAH. Deliver me from the evil here. I speak destruction, confusion and disarray to the plans of and with evil that mankind has made for me. They are dissolving like sand through their fingers, and water that dries up. I love You YAH. I love You YAH. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Metered Out, Believing

When a person gets to the end, or perhaps closer to the end, it is good. It gives the person a chance to reflect. And as I have been reflecting, I see a path of metered out attempts at making a difference with my life. I have the choice and chance – the opportunity – to press on and press in everyday. We have that chance here as we approach the insanity of whatever this is around us. The work is set on edge and so many follow blindly the inputs they see and hear. To those uf us that are older, it seems quite odd indeed. But here we are, trying to make a go of it.

Joshua 1:5 There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
6 Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.
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.

Always.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are my 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. In the name of Yeshuah HaMashiach I forgive them. I love You 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. I love You.

Let the prosperity flow like the vision of the broken bag of coins. I ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Simple Rules

Trying to stay simple, again a scrip[ture.

Ephesians 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Thanksgiving Days

Today in the US is a holiday called Thanksgiving Day. For those who have spent much time at all on this blog, you will know that I do theme topics by day. Thursdays are for Thankfulness. As I thought about our holiday here, I realized that they are all reasons to be thankful to me. Every day is a day to give thanks, hence “Days” in the title here. Take time to be with YAH and those you love today.

Psalm 100 A Psalm of praise.
1 Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.
2 Serve the LORD with gladness: Come before his presence with singing.
3 Know ye that the LORD he is God:
It is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, And into his courts with praise:
Be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
5 For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting;
And his truth endureth to all generations.

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, and send to those in need. I forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. Forgive me my trespasses ant transgressions YAH.

I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Warrior Grade

Throughout the year I hear various commercials referring to the product they are selling at the time as having something to do with the military. I also here in faith based circles the term “warrior” bantered around a bit. In the past, I have looked at troublesome times as a negative thing. And yet, if they are truly the battle, then my faith should be found in my rejoicing over the victory to come and the understanding that the battle is necessary for there to be a victory. I am pleased to know that YAH is my Dad, my Deliverer, and my King. Sometimes trying to find the words to describe my feelings can be difficult. But I keep working on getting these ideas into my heart, head, and hands so that my faith and my life is warrior grade.

Dueteronomy 3:21 And I commanded Joshua at that time, saying, Thine eyes have seen all that the LORD your God hath done unto these two kings: so shall the LORD do unto all the kingdoms whither thou passest.
22 Ye shall not fear them: for the LORD your God he shall fight for you.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You alone are my King. Praise the name YAH! {raise the name YAHUAH! Praise the name YESHUAH! 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 agains me YAH. O my King, I forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH, and I ask that You forgive them. Keep me from temptations YAH. Deliver me from the evil here, and the evil plans men have for me. Let the whirlwinds blow upon their plans and wash them away from under their feet like the waves upon the sand, O my King. Send in the prosperity and the shalom and the healing power, O my King. I love You. I love You. I love You. Let me be more like You YAH. Let me help the many, O my King. I love You. I love You. I love You. Help me lead the way. I ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

God Is Working

Our Father is always looking out for us. He is there in every battle we face. Let me make this personal. Perhaps that will help you as well. I need to wait on Him and His deliverance. He always delivers His people. That is just the very nature of who He is. And he never lets go.

Psalm 121 A Song of degrees.
1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills,
From whence cometh my help.
2 My help cometh from the LORD,
Which made heaven and earth.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved:
He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5T he LORD is thy keeper:
The LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6 The sun shall not smite thee by day,
Nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil:
He shall preserve thy soul.
8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in
From this time forth, and even for evermore.

If I can just get myself to stay engaged in the battle, I will prevail because YAH prevails for me.

Prayer
Father, I exalt You. You and 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. I forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against me YAH. Forgive me my trespasses and transgressions. I love You. Keep me from temptations YAH. Deliver me from the evil here and the evil plans men have for me. Confound their plans YAH. I speak destruction to their plans YAH. Let it be so, O my King. I love You. I love You. Send in the overwhelming prosperity YAH. I love You. I love You. Let it be today, O my King. I love You. I ask all 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.
