Thank You Father

Sitting here just contemplating all that our Father has done recently. Truly amazing! This is just a shout out to Dad.

Yo, Dad! We love You!

Luke 4:8And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

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 s ouur trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Deliver us from the evil here. Yours is the kingdom and power forever. 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 Your Father, in the name YAH Yeshah HaMashiach. Amen.

Standing

What do we do when there seems to be nothing left that we can do?

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.
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.

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 heave. 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 now 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, the more besides. We ask all these things in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach, asking them of You Father, our King. Amen and Amen. Amen.

Work Together

This seems to be the directive we have been given by God. We are to be a part of each other’s lives. We are to work to assist each other in a way that is honoring to God and to each other.

Ecclesiastes 4:12 And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

Let’s build each other up that we all might serve the living God.

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.

Questions And Answers

This weekend I had the honor of working on a documentary. The subject matter was the 2/7, also commonly known as “The Forgotten Battalion” by many. They were deployed in 2008 to Afghanistan and experienced some pretty extreme conditions. The following is a poem I wrote in their honor.

2/7: The Roar

Why must we kill each other
Just to survive?
Why does one man starve
While other men thrive?
If the questions are killing us,
What answer keeps us alive?

The heroes came to the ocean
In hopes of something more.
Early morning pounding waves
But from whence comes the roar?
It comes not from the water
Though there it may start
After a time these is one source
In time, the roar comes from the heart.

Call to arms! Call to arms!
Before another is fallen.
Reject the voice of the Reaper
When he comes a callin’.
If we want to save ourselves
Perhaps the answer, true
Is not for me to save myself
But for me to help you save you.

How do we heal each other
That we may survive?
How do we feed each other
That all of us may thrive?
There may never be one answer,
But through community, we revive…

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, and the more besides. We ask all these things in the name of YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach, asking them of You, Father King. Amen.

Rest And Peace

Today I had the honor of meeting some real American heroes. Men of the Forgotten Battalion. They gave me much more than I could ever give to them. I pray that we all receive rest and peace.

Deuteronomy 30:15 See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;
16 In that I command thee this day to love the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the Lord thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.

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 heave. 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 now from the evil here.

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

Walking On Through

It can be very challenging to be a human in pursuit of God. We are both filled with the longing to hear from Him, to do as He wants us to do, and at the same time we have a corrupt condition of our flesh to wrestle. Perhaps the best news is God knows and understands. He came to earth as the Son, Yeshuah, and actually did it for us to observe. An amazing fact indeed that our Father loves us so much.

John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

Something hung on a tree is worthy of death. That’s what happened with the serpent in the wilderness. That is why when Yeshuah was hung on the cross wrongly, the devil was judged and is now curesed forever.

Deuteronomy 21:22 And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree:
23 His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day; (for he that is hanged is accursed of God;) that thy land be not defiled, which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.

In the end, we just need to press on toward God. We need to move forward trying to be all we need to be. God will help us reach that better place. We cannot do it on our own.

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. We declare You are King! We declare You are King! We call upon You, King, to send forth Your deliverance from the lack. Send us now Your prosperity. Deliver us from the wicked one that holds back Your blessings. 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. Let people see, that You are King, and that You alone will deliver. We ask all these things of You, Father, our King, and we ask them in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Thankful For Today

This morning while writing this I thought of how we are so blessed to have a Father that gives us the morning. Each one is unique. Really, our day begins with the evening where we rest. Then we awaken to begin a new day. This is a good thing for us. We have the opportunity to spend time with YAH and to make our way to making a difference in His kingdom one more day.

Psalms 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.

Sometimes I forget that I am here to make a joyful noise. Today, let’s sing praises to our Father!

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. We need You, Father, to help us change our hearts and minds and bodies. We need You. We need You. Restore Your people Father. 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, the more besides. Let Your kingdom come in the hearts of man. We love You. Thank You for this day. Amen and Amen.

Truth And Freedom

Scriptures present us with an interesting idea to address. Freedom is obtained only through an intimate relationship with truth. We are asked to believe and to know the truth.

John 8:28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

The first requirement is believing on Him (Yeshuah) as the One sent from the Father. Then we must believe He only did and said what He saw the Father do or heard Him say. Once we accept these things, we can know the truth. This word for know is one of intimate knowledge. With the intimate knowledge of the truth, we can be free.

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 – lands, gold, silver, precious jewels, families, and friends – and the more besides. We ask all these things of You Father King, and we ask them in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiach. Amen.

Everyone Needs Everyone

From a scientific point of view, we are all intertwined. Each of us impacts the other. Therefore if you encourage someone else, you encourage yourself. If you encourage yourself, you encourage others. We need to be the people that are helping because we know what our Father is about – transforming the world back to what it once was.

Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:
21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.

Ultimately it is a big goal. But we can be a part of it by building up those around us.

Prayer

We ask all these things in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMaShiach, asking them of You, Father our King. Amen.
