Release Your Heart

Thinking about so many scriptures that speak to the idea of the heart, the “center” of the human. We are meant to cleanse our hearts and let them be in tune to YAH. This was prophesied in the past, that we would do this with the help of our Father.

Ezekiel 36:25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.

And this very prophecy was connect to the prophecy of Jeremiah in the letter to the Hebrews.

Hebrews 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
21 And having an high priest over the house of God;
22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.

So we see, it is important for us to regularly seek our Father and His wisdom and ways, that we might be more like Him on our insides, that it shines to the outside.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. Yes, Father, we exalt You. You alone are King! You alone are King! Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here in us, and let Your will be done here perfectly in and through us, just as it is done in heaven. Send us now Your provision. Let it overflow to those in need Father. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. We want to be more like You, Father, more like You. You are the King, our only King. We love You. Deliver us from the evil here. We thank You that You deliver us from the evil that men plot to do. We thank You that You alone are King. We love You. We love You. We love You. Help us to walk in Your light and Your ways, Father. Send in quickly the financial blessing that we might help those in need to help others. We need to come together, Father, as You have foretold. Restore unto Your people one thousandfold that which has been taken or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. Yes the more besides. We ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen and Amen and Amen.

Sow To Yourself

One of my favorite scriptures is also a song.

Hosea 10:12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.

We believers hear much about sowing and reaping. But we can see from this verse, we are the first soil to be planted. If we will break up the soil of our heart and turn it toward YAH, then plant it with our words and resources according to the new covenant (the Law in our hearts), we will reap the mercy of YAH.

Today, let’s all say to ourselves, “I am good soil.”

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! 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. Let us overflow to the poor, needy, widow and fatherless. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Thank you Father that You have separated our transgressions from us. Deliver us from the hands of evil men, and from the evil that men do. Keep us from temptation. This is Your place. Let Your glory shine though us, Father. Send in the $423,000,000 quickly, YAH, that we might use it to promote Your kingdom. We love You. Use us to help the poor and needy, the widow and the orphan, Father. We ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen and Amen and Amen.

Actions From The Heart

For the most part we act on what we believe. People say and do what is in their heart.

Luke 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

Essentially we can use our speaking to both make what is in our heart come to pass, as well as change what is in our heart. The heart is the creative energy well.

Proverbs 10:11 The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

It is therefore important to watch over what we have in it.

Proverbs 4:23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

The good news is it was always in God’s plan to make sure we had a good heart.

Ezekiel 11:19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:
20 That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.

This is the new covenant.

Hebrews 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.

We have a path, a way to follow, to creation of good in the earth.

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 and in us as it is in heaven. Send us now Your provision that it might overflow. 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. Keep us from temptations. This is Your place, this is Your place. We seek Your kingdom within us, YAH. Yes, we seek Your face. Rise up now, my King. Deliver us from the evil here. Rise up now my King. Send Your hosts of heaven, and bring to pass the blessings of substance, healing, deliverance and financial prosperity that You have provided at our request. Smite the enemies that would reject Your way and power, and try to hold back or steal that which You have sent and provided. Let it be so, even today, Father. We ask all these things of You Father King Yahuah, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen and Amen and Amen.

My People Perish

There is a case to be made for the need for something when we read scriptures about how God’s people perish, or are destroyed.

Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

It is interesting that the explanation of “lack of knowledge” is “forgotten the Law”, and seems to say that this moving away from the Law will cause destruction. Hosea is in agreement with another scripture in this regard, also often quoted.

Proverbs 29:18 Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

Here we see that lack of prophetic vision results in people being exposed in a way that results in them perishing, but the one that guards the Law by observing it and doing it is happy. Interestingly, the descriptive definition of chazown, or prophetic “vision” here, means to mentally “see” with pleasure. This is what happened to Abraham when He followed after God. We can also see that the Law plays a key role in the ability to follow YAH. This makes sense when we understand what the new covenant is, as defined in scripture.

Hebrews 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

It’s all about the heart. We a re encouraged to have our heart transformed by the Law being written on it. This happens when we accept the sacrifice of the body of Yeshuah (Jesus) once for all transgression of the Law (sin) and surrender to Him as our Savior and Yahuah (Lord).

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. We praise Your Holy Name, Yahuah. You are our King. Let Your kingdom come here in the hearts and minds and bodies of Your people. Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven, so perfectly. Send us now Your provision, and let it overflow to those around us. You alone are worthy to be praised. 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, and the plans of evil men. Keep us from temptation, O YAH. This is Your creation. This is Your world. We ask that You would save this place, and restore the promise of substance and prosperity. Restore the good what has been eaten or taken or held back, in any way, and the more besides. Yes YAH, the much more besides. We ask all these things of You Yahuah, our King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Soldier Up

Often I have heard it said that people are in need of being tougher. It usually happens when someone is facing a challenging situation that seems to be overwhelming them at that moment. And it is often said by someone with no skin in the game, nothing at risk from the outcome. However, there can be validity to the comment. It can also be a statement made by a coach. Our Father has said it in the past to various people specifically and to us generally as believers.

Isaiah 41:10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
11 Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish.
12 Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought.
13 For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.

There is a song that refers to believers as soldiers. It is a comforting old hymn to many. It is something that those that want to believe in spiritual warfare often enjoy. Whether one agrees with that philosophy or not, there is one thing that we can do. We can use that idea to realize that our Father has already declared our position as a winner. We can and we will be victorious. We only need follow the words of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus).

Mark 5:36 As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King. You are my King. Praise the name YAHUAH! Let Your kingdom come here in the hearts and minds and bodies of the people, Father, Your people. Let Your will be done here on earth as it is in heaven. Send us now Your provision. Let it flow and then overflow. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have transgressed or trespassed against us. Deliver us from the evil here. Keep us from temptation. Let Your power flow. Let Your healing flow. We love You. We love You, O YAH. You are our Father. You are King. Restore unto Your people all substance and healing and prosperity that has been taken or held back in any way, and the more besides. We ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen and Amen and Amen. Amen.

In Order

The title for this writing today was a bit on the challenging side. I wanted to address the idea that we have to do first things first, second things second, and so on. It is easy for me, and I suspect most believers, to rush off into the day and do what seems critical at that moment. Most things are not. The most important thing always is to be with our Father and be will to always trust Him. He makes us to be winners of the day. He is with us, always.

Psalms 55:16 As for me, I will call upon God; and the Lord shall save me.
17 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.
18 He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me: for there were many with me.

Today, I just want to recognize Him for who He is and all He has done. Wow! It is truly amazing for sure.

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. Keep us from temptations. It’s Your kingdom and power we need here. Deliver to us the promised wealth and abundance that we might promote Your kingdom. We ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Hanging On, Hanging In

We get the opportunity to experience scriptures. By that I mean our lives our a part of history, just as the record of what happened in the past is recorded in scripture. Those same principles are at work in us that were at work in the days of old in the lives of those people are at work in our lives as well. What worked for them, works for us. One record shows that there was a time when it worked very well for the people.

Matthew 4:23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.

We can see that the people were hanging on, hanging in to see the One promised. As a result, they did.

Perhaps that is the best message for today. We need to hang on, staying on track till the manifestation of the power of God appears. It worked for them and can work for 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. We need You, Father. We need You. Restore unto Your people all the good and all that has benn 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 and Amen.

Praise YAH!

Today I greatly enjoyed listening to YAH tell me what to do each moment. He had me read several scriptures. I enjoy those times very much as I feel that He is teaching me. If we believe that YAH created everything, that He is a Father to us, and King of the universe, then thinking of Him taking time with us, especially to reveal things, is truly amazing! Here is one of the great scriptures I read:

Psalms 105:1 O give thanks unto the Lord; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.
2 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works.
3 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.
4 Seek the Lord, and his strength: seek his face evermore.
5 Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;
6 O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen.
7 He is the Lord our God: his judgments are in all the earth.
8 He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.
9 Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;
10 And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:
11 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:

This is meant as a blessing to all, and it is. However, there is a great hidden blessing here for me as well. Our Father is so in love with us, He has already established what He will do for us.

Praise YAH!

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King! Praise the name YAH! Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom reign in us as was always meant to be. From that let Your will be done here on earth as it is in heaven, where the sun, moon and stars deliver Your message that You love us. Send us now Your provision. Deliver us from the evil here. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us, for we are all but men, with weaknesses not a few. Yea, deliver us from the great evil here that would turn us and tempt us to go not Your way. We need You, we need You, we need You now. And we love You. For You alone are King, It is Your kingdom and power and glory that we long for among us. Restore Your people. Restore Your people. Restore Your people, O King! Restore unto Your people all the good and the goods that have 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 and Amen.

Wisdom Is The Thing

Wisdom is important to us as believers.

Proverbs 4:5 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.

It gives access to many of the blessings of YAH.

Proverbs 8:5 O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.
6 Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things.
7 For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
8 All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.
9 They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.
10 Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.
11 For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
12 I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.
13 The fear of the Lord is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
14 Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.
15 By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
16 By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.
17 I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
18 Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness.
19 My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.
20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:
21 That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.

Wisdom is a gift from our Father, and knowledge and understanding come from the mouth of YAH.

Proverbs 2:1 My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee;
2 So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;
3 Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;
4 If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;
5 Then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God.
6 For the Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.
7 He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.
8 He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.
9 Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path.

And to get wisdom, all we need do is ask.

James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

Today, may we all seek wisdom diligently.

Prayer (to be sung or chanted)
Father, we exalt You. We long to honor You with uplifted voices. We long to praise You. We long for understanding. Yes, we seek wisdom. Let Your kingdom come here in the hearts and minds and bodies of Your people. Let Your will be done here on 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, of the words and deeds of those that lead us away from Your path. For You alone are King and Your wisdom and understanding of knowledge are more to be desired that gold or silver or precious stones. You give us abundant blessings. Show us now a sign for good that all men might know that You alone are King. You alone can change the mountains, the oceans, and the seas. You give us clear paths, and we praise You for Your love and works toward us. Restore unto Your people all that has been taken or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. You alone can do these things. We as all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen and Amen. Amen and Amen. Amen.

Stay Tuned

It is a challenge to move forward in life, just because it is. Life is about living for God, or at least in part it is. As such, this is a proving ground for becoming the person He means for us to become. We need to follow Him and His leading to make our way. This following is not always on even, smooth ground. There can rough patches, hills, mountains, floods, and oceans to cross. And yet, we are called to press on. We must become whom we are meant to become.

Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Live for today, my brothers and sisters. But above all, live for God.

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. Help us to flee temptations. This is Yours. I am Yours. Restore all that has been taken or held back from Your people, Father. We ask all these things of You Father King, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen and Amen.
