Don’t Give Up The Ground

Here we are at the precipice of the future, straining to see the way. We don’t have to try to figure out the future – we can create it. In fact, one person can create it for the entire nation.

James 5:17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.
18 And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.

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. Thank You Father, for Your mighty provision. We love You. Overwhelm us with Your bountiful provision. We ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Tilting At Windmills

Looking at all that has taken place, I am reminded of Don Quixote. He was trying to fight windmills thinking they were giants. Because that is what He wanted them to be. We spend time chasing after things that come to mind so that we can feel good about the chase. In the end, we need to pray more than anything else. Only prayer can change things.

James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

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. Materialize the financial blessing to overflow to those around us. We ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

It Starts With Me

When I hear folks speaking about spiritual warfare, I try to listen to their perspective. I try to make certain that I am listening to hear what they are saying. Most recently I have been hearing many people discuss what is going on in the U.S. and the world. Frankly, it is a bit on the odd side to me. But I am fine with that as each person has their own responsibility to God. And that is really the point I am trying to make here. Real spiritual warfare begins inside of each of us where we wrestle to become the very best person we can become. This we are each called to do. It is an important part of our lives.

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.

We see here that Paul encourages us to work on ourselves. This is an important point. If we fail to keep working on ourselves, how will we be able to best overcome the darkness external to us? It would be like fighting ourselves. We will always need to be vigilant to strive towards perfection. We will arrive one day, when the Messiah returns.

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 in quickly the overwhelming financial blessings that we might overflow to those around us. We ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

The Fight For The World

As believers we believe we are engaged in spiritual warfare. We predominately get that opinion from scriptures that indicate this is so. Many of us have also had personal experiences with the meta-physical that would lead us to conclude that there is opposition to truth and justice. These instances show up in many ways, and may even not be easily seen. So then we must choose our individual paths. What will we do? Better yet, each person asks, what will I do? I suggest we follow the example of Daniel.

Daniel 9:3 And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes:
4 And I prayed unto the Lord my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;
5 We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and from thy judgments:
6 Neither have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, which spake in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
7 O Lord, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee.
8 O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.
9 To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him;
10 Neither have we obeyed the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.
11 Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him.
12 And he hath confirmed his words, which he spake against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon Jerusalem.
13 As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the Lord our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.
14 Therefore hath the Lord watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the Lord our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.
15 And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten thee renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
16 O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain: because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all that are about us.
17 Now therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servant, and his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord’s sake.
18 O my God, incline thine ear, and hear; open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses, but for thy great mercies.
19 O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken and do; defer not, for thine own sake, O my God: for thy city and thy people are called by thy name.
20 And whiles I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the Lord my God for the holy mountain of my God;
21 Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.

Time to pray with everything within 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 trespassed or transgressed against us. Deliver us from the evil here. O YAH, hear our cries. We need You to stand, O King, and bring righteousness to the land. We need You. Send in quickly Your angels to dispatch the evil. Set us free to follow You. Send in quickly the financial prosperity. Send in quickly the power to heal. We ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMasiach. Amen.

Present To Pain

Lately I have been contemplating the most important part of getting something to move from the metaphysical to the physical world. One of those thoughts includes the importance of being in the “now”. As I write this, I am experiencing a pain in my foot similar to those that I experienced as “growth pains” when I was younger. Even as I write this, however, I can sense the pain “leaving” my foot. The point I wanted to make is that pain is one of those things that brings us to the present, like, immediately! What a great thing to know that when we are struggling, that struggle brings us to the moment where change can occur! Praise 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 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 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 King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Within And Without

Where is the battle? Well, there you have it – within and without. There is a struggle that is outside of us and a struggle that is within us. Our primary job, in my opinion, is to work on what is on the inside of us. When we do that we can change the way the world works around us. This is a basic lesson that is repeated again and again in scriptures. Yeshuah taught it to His disciples.

Mark 11:21 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.

Inside, then outside – that is the battle plan.

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 in quickly the financial surplus for the needs for Your people. Hear my cry. Hear my cry. O Father, hear me. Restore one thousandfold all the good that has been take or held back in any way from Your people of that which is good, and the more besides. We ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Not Quitting Is Winning

There are sayings out there that are worth considering. The winner is the last one to get up off the mat. It implies that all get knocked down. Winners get back up. If we can just refuse to quit, we win. And we are destined to win.

Ephesians 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

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

Battle On

We must continue to wage the battle against the darkness. It is our best and only hope. There is nothing behind worth going to for us. We are meant to travel the desert of life to the promised land. This is our battle, to fight on. And the battle is YAH’s.

Exodus 14:13 And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.
14 The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.

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

Day Four

This is getting good. Ruling over the Day and the Night implies a structure and a need for order. Interesting.

Genesis 1:14And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
15And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
16And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
17And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
18And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
19And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Let the kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here, on earth as it is in heaven. Send us now Your provision.

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

Dream To Win

When I wrote the title, I had something specific in mind. It was not dreaming a bout winning. It was that in order to win, we must dream.

When we dream we visualize something. When we dream about our victory, we create the possibility for it to occur. We can dream our way to victory, with faith.

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Dream!

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Let the kingdom come here, and let Your will be done here, on earth as it is in heaven. Send us now Your provision.
