Psalm 142

Philippians 1:19 "For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,"

"Paul speaks of the supply of the Spirit. All the promises of God are made possible by the Holy Spirit. All our wants are met in It's supply. The Holy Spirit is the all-inclusive gift. In The Holy Spirit and by The Holy Spirit, and through The Holy Spirit is the supply of all our needs. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of truth and life, of wisdom and might, of grace and love. The Holy Spirit knows the deep things of God, and teaches the heart the secrets of prayer. The Holy Spirit takes of the things of Christ and makes them known to both mind and heart. It is the source of Divine energy and power, and through it the inner man recieves strength."

"The measure of our usefulness is the measure of the supply of the Spirit which we bring. The work of God is not by might nor by power but by the Spirit of the Living God. It is useless to attempt in the energy of the flesh what can be accomplished only in the power of the Holy Spirit. The promise of the Spirit covers every present need, and guarentees the consummation of redeeming grace. It is both seal and earnest. It secures us to God for an inheritance for His own possession; and it secures to us a glorious, complete, and eternal inheritance in God. That is why the gift of the Spirit always sets the heart singing. It's confidence is unwavering, It's power invincible, It's joy unspeakable".

"Have you recieved the Holy Ghost? there are many who have believed of whom the words of John are still true: It is not given, and the reason is the same, for the Coronation gift always comes when the King is crowned. (" The way to Pentecost" by Samuel Chadwick, p. 24)

Heavenly Father Yahweh, You know what is in the heart of Your people. Thank You for Your mercy and forgiveness, for it is only through these things that we are able to get through each day. Your gift of the Spirit is what keeps us going. Please continue to guide our steps, Yahweh/Yahoshua and help us to live and be led by Your Holy Spirit of Truth.

HalleluYah!

Proverbs 7

Genesis 1:2 "... and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the water".

From the beginning, we find the testimony and the witness that Yahweh's Holy Spirit has been active in our world and in our lives. Many act as if the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at that now famous feast of Pentecost in the second chapture of Acts was the first movement of the Holy Spirit in History. Perhaps this comes from only studying the New Testament and ignoring the Old. What ever the case, throughout all of scripture we find Yahweh's Holy Spirit hard at work, and not just in the New Testament.

"and the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a "living soul". "Breath" is the word for Spirit. It is a picture word. God does not "breath". The Spirit is not wind. It is a figure of speech to illustrate the fact that Yahweh imparted to Adam the life which was within HImself. Yahweh breathed into man. His Spirit and man became a living soul.

"Recieve ye the Hoy Ghost". Yahweh/Yahshua breathed upon His disciples, He imparted unto them the life which He had in Himself. "There is a spirit in a man, and the breath of the Almighty giveth understanding". "The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty giveth me life".

We see throughout the Old Testament the Holy Spirit coming upon Moses, Bezaleel, the 70 elders of Israel, Samson, Gideon. Samuel, Elijah and Elisha; schools of prophets and all the prophets spake by the Holy Spirit. The Kingdom of Yahweh is utterly inseperable from the Holy Spirit of Yahweh and to experience the fullness of the Kingdom, we must experience the fullness of the Spirit.

Holy Father Yahweh, hollowed be Thy Name.

Father Yahweh we give you praise and glory for the blessings you have bestowed upon us. Father we ask for your Holy Spirit to come upon us everyday of our lives and bestowe upon our hearts and minds that which you wrote on the hearts of all your prophets.

HallelluYah!

Psalm 12

Acts 19:2 "He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost."

Man's inability to read scripture and accept it has led to much error. In our age, the scriptural is frowned upon and disregarded as myth and relics. Meanwhile, many unscriptural teachings such as "higher criticism" and" dispensationalism" have corrupted the truth of the Word of Yahweh. Yahoshua plainly told His disciples to "tarry in Jerusalem until they were endued with power from on high." Some say that the disciples were not properly "saved" yet, but that is not true. In His prayer for them the night of Passover, He stated plainly that they were His. He had kept them by His power, they were not of the world, even as He was not of this world. After His reserrection He breathed upon them and said "recieve the Holy Spirit". They were saved, but they had not been baptized (submerged, saturated) in the Holy Spirit.

Acts 8:14 "Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John: Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) Then laid they [their] hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost."

These Samaritan believers had repented, believed, called on the glorious Name of Yahoshua and been baptized in water, but the Holy Spirit had not yet fallen on any of them. Acts 19:2 "He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost." All of these believers new that they were converted, but they also knew just as definitely that they had not been Baptized in the Holy Spirit. This was, and is, a totally separate, distinct and unique experience,

There is the gift of Life by the Spirit of Yahweh, and whosoever recieves it is saved, but in the Baptism of the Spirit there is a gift of power, power to live the New Life to it's fullest in the Holiness of Yahweh and power to witness unto Yahweh. It is our inheritance as Israelite believers to be filled with the Spirit, Baptized in the Spirit and led by the Spirit. These believers, and many many more, were born of the spirit of Yahweh, but afterwords, whether a long time or shortly thereafter, there came a conviction of need, and led by the Spirit of Yahweh and the word of Yahweh, they entered into an experience of sanctifying fullness in and of the Holy Spirit.

There are many christians whose christianity can not be doubted, but they have never had a Pentecost. In light of this, one can only ask, "Have you recieved the Holy Ghost since you believed?"

Glory be to Yahweh, the Most High.

We humbly pray for Your guidance and discernment to know Your will Yahweh/Yahoshua. Grant us understanding of your word and lead us in everything we say and do. Praise your Holy Name.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 63

�@

Acts 1:8 " But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."

The source of all christian power is The Presence of Yahweh through His Holy Spirit which dwells in us, saturates us, baptizes us. The Holy Spirit sanctifies, energizes and empowers. Through the Holy Spirit we have power to break away from all sin, to walk in holiness and obedience to the commandments of our God. See the beauty of Yaweh's love. He calls us to be holy, even as He is Holy, yet knowing how unholy we truly are He goes one step further, and offers us His Power to be holy.

The Holy Spirit of Yahweh looks at our ignorance and leads us into all truth. Through Yahweh's Spirit we have all the wisdom and knowledge we will ever need at our disposal. We are given the power to seperate from this wicked world and all it's distractions and to cling to the one True God.

Through the Holy Spirit common men are empowered to do more, to accompish more than they had ever dreamed. Samson by the Holy Spirit was invincible, Shamgar with an ox goad was an army unto himself, Peter made a prophet, the enemy of Messiah, Saul transformed into Paul, David made a warrior/poet/King.

Yahweh does not look for supermen, He looks for common men who will humbly obey, and then fashion them in His Own Holy Presence until they are changed.

Heavenly Father Yahweh

We greet Thee with open hearts and praise Your most Holy Name. Father we ask for your Holy Presence to change us into what Your desire for us is and thank you with every breath for the mercy you show us. Lead us O Father by Your Holy Spirit into your Holy Kingdom.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 87

Act 10:38 "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him."

Power has it's conditions. Behold how small a thing can derail a train, bring airplanes crashing down, silence a factory or plunge a city into darkness.

So often we get in the way of Yahweh's Holy Spirit, because we have not learned to wait upon Him and upon His Timing. Perhaps He does not move in the way we think best. Stand down christian. The same Holy Spirit of Yahweh gives power to speech and to silence, to battle and to peace, to work and to rest.

"The work of The Holy Spirit of Yahweh depends upon the power of the Holy Spirit of Yahweh. No other power will do. The energy of the flesh cannot do the work of the Spirit. For His power there is no substitute. When Zion covets Babylonish gold, envies Babylonish garments, copies Babyonish wages, adapts Babylonish altars, and fights with Babylonish weapons, her strength fails because the Spirit of Power is lost. Carnal resources are no asset in spiritual enterprise. The weapons of this warfare are not carnal. Prayer brings power, for the Spirit of Power is given to them that pray."

"Without His (Yahweh's) guidance wisdom gropes in darkness, and without His (Yahweh's) strength there is no might. Light becomes darkness and strength weakness apart from Him. There are many who would save the church (and Yahweh's Israel people) by linking it up with the power of the world..." "Way to Pentecost" by Samuel Chadwich p. 64, 69.

Do not be content with anything that does not bear the signature of Yahweh's Holy Spirit. Worldly ministers leading worldly ministries only begets more worldliness. But Anointing of The Holy Spirit of Yahweh separates light from darkness and holy from profane, and if we yearn for the Anointing of Yahweh's Holy Spirit, we must not hesitate to cast aside every obstacle to The Holy Spirit's flow in our lives.

Worldliness is a hinderance and an obstacle to the flow of Yahweh's Holy Spirit.

Heavenly Father Yahweh

I humbly come before you on bended knee to glorify your Holy Name Yahweh. For you are the Most High, Creator of Heaven and earth. It is by Your sacrifice , Yahoshua and the gift of Your Holy Spirit that I live. Help me to get out of the way and let Your Spirit of Truth guide me. In the precious name of Yahoshua the Messiah... Glory be to the Highest...

HalleluYah!

Psalm 137

Leviticus 20:7 "Be ye holy, for I am holy"

There is so much confusion, ignorance and outright falsehoods concerning holiness in our time. Some have imagined holiness as being a particular dress code, a hair style or type of religious activity. A certain style of dress or hairstyle will not make you holy, but being holy will very well indeed cause one to dress and present themselves in a way that is markedly different than the "norms" of society.

The word holy at it's root means separate, set apart. The Holy Spirit is often refered to as the "set apart Spirit". The Holy Spirit of Yahweh is above all things, holy, and cannot bless, condone or compromise with unholiness. Yahweh's law is given unto us as a standard for holiness, but we must have help to achieve the standard. That is why we have the Spirit of Holiness.

Yahweh did not tell us "be ye holy", and then leave us without a standard of holiness: He gave us His Law. Our Father did not tell us, "be ye holy, for I am holy", and leave us without hope: He gave us His Spirit. By the Holy Spirit we are led to true holiness, writing Yahweh's law upon our hearts and our minds, that we might be cleansed both inside and out. Here the Spirit of Yahweh brings forth the fruits of the Spirit - love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness and temperance. The fruits of the Spirit are the fullfilling of the law, and are true holiness unto Yahweh.

Yahweh's Holy Spirit goes to work inside of us, changing us, making us into new creations; and this change works it's way outward and we become seperate, set apart from this wicked world and all of it's ways, and truly we become holy, by the Power of Yahweh's Spirit.

Praise Yahweh, King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

Heavenly Father Yahweh, we ask for Your Spirit to rain down on us, change us and make us in Your Holy and gracious image, that we will not be a reproach on to You but that You may shine through us.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 145

1 Corinthians 2:9 "But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love Him"

Think for a moment of all the songs, hymns and psalms that have been written since Adam's time, lifting up the love of Yahweh and the glories of the Heavenly Kingdom. All of them together are nothing. They only scratch the surface. Think of all the scriptures, paintings and works of art men have endeavored upon in their own attempt to capture for the imagination a glimpse of the Majesty of Yahweh/Yahoshua and His Kingdom which awaits. They fail, all of them.

There awaits each of us who have surrendered our lives unto The Messiah, a Kingdom of light and Power and Glory and Majesty beyond our very ability to comprehend. All the admonitions of the prophets and apostles, offer us only fleeting glimpses, which give us only the vision which is all that we in our frail tabernacle of flesh could withstand.

Think of it, fellow pilgrim. As we make our way through this pitiful world of woe and suffering, there is an awesome end to our brief pilgrimage. What ever beauty you have seen here in this world, mighty mountains reaching to the sky, oceans filling the horizon, they are all tainted and corrupted. Even the most beautiful sights imaginable are dimmed by sin.

But there is coming very soon, sooner than most would think, a purifying fire, a Kingdom of pure light, ruled by a King who Himself is the light. Then there will be no corruption, no imperfection, no taint nor pollutant. It is coming, and it is ours. So powerful is it that we must put on new bodies even to behold it.

Just a little longer, and all that we can't even imagine, will be our daily reality.

Heavenly Father Yahweh

We surrender our lives unto you. Holy be Thy Name, forgive our iniquities and have mercy on Your children. Help us to keep on the path of righteousness because we can not do it on our own. We need you Yahweh/Yahoshua and with bowed head and on bended knee we are asking... Don't turn Your face away from us, come into our hearts Yahweh/Yahoshua, and fill our lives with Your Presence.

HalleluYah!

1 Corinthians 2:4-5 "And my speech and my preaching [was] not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God."

Yahweh's will is that we should have faith in Him and Him alone. Everywhere we look in these modern times men of great learning abound, men with degrees and doctorates in every aspect of historical study and "christian" counseling. But look at how saturated the church is with atheists, modernists, pluralists. Every abomination imaginable has infiltrated churchianity and yes even the ranks of christian Israel. Men have departed from the wisdom of Yahweh God to take hold of worldly wisdom.

1 Corinthians 1:25-31 "Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, [are called]: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, [yea], and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence. But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord."

The wisdom of our Father in Heaven just doesn't make good sense to men, but that is because men seek their own glory. Yaweh however, shares glory with no man, and to be mighty in the eyes of The Everlasting God, means to become humble, and a servant to all.

1 Corinthians 2:9-14 "But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.But God hath revealed [them] unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned. "

To walk in power and might with Yahweh means we must cling to Yahweh. We cannot find this power through historical research, but only through communion, fellowship with the Father. The more we are locked away with Him in our prayer closet, the more of Him we bring out into the everyday world with us. Moses came down from the mountain after having spent weeks alone in the Presence of Yahweh, and the shekinah glory of Yahweh was still so powerful upon Moses he had to be veiled so that the people could even look upon him.

In the same way, the more we tarry in the Presence of our Father, the more of His Glory we have to share with others, and this is what the children of Israel are in direst need of now, and it is only through the Holy Spirit of Yahweh that we can do anything of real value for Him and His Kingdom.

Holy Father Yahweh

Father we come before You to ask You to open our eyes and ears that we may see You and hear Your Voice. So that we may spend more time with You and honor You. Help us to become less of this world and more of You.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 120

2 Corinthians 11:3 " But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted form the simplicity that is in christ:."

We must be constantly on guard as we make our earthly pilgramage, for there are many things which may seem alluring to our emotions and/or our intellect, but they are not of the Father. There are many out there who have become seduced with the most ridiculous of things, things that they would have us believe are of the utmost importance. To not partake of the fruit of the forbidden tree was not a hard task. There was more than enough without it to keep Adam and Eve satisfied. And as long as they kept their distance, Satan had no opportunity,. It wasn't until Eve stopped and began to examine the possibilities that satan found his opportunity.

"Hath God said". Satan didn't come outright with obvious blasphemy, he put a question in her mind, which caused her to question her own understanding. Once done, Satan simply had to question Yahweh's motives, and soon Eve was stretching out a longing hand.

Subtlety is the device. It may come desquised in a host of twisted scriptures and reinterpretations. What is the simplicity that is in Christ?

That Yahweh came in the flesh as Messiah to redeem His chosen, through sacrifice, and in the process purchase all the world unto HImself; that He calls us to be holy, even as He is holy, and He has given us commandments, statutes and judgements as His Standard of Holiness, and His commandments are not grievious but rather teach us mercy and love; that He is returning very soon, to bring an end to the chaos and suffering that Satan's original subtlety ushered in.

Always cling to the simplicities, and you will not have to fear the subtlety.

Praise Your Holy Name, Yahweh.

We are but children in Your sight, and we, too easily stumble and fall from the stumbling blocks Satan sets before us. Grant us the strength to resist the temptations of today. It would be such a simple thing to just obey Your laws and statutes but we make it difficult, because we so often choose the easy road and get caught up in the trappings of this world, our selfishness and pride, all for our lack of faith in You. We humbly come to you now to ask forgivness and to restore in us a clean heart and a right spirit.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 131

2 Corinthians 11:13-15" For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel: for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness: whose end shall be according to their works."

One of the greatest achievments of our chief adversary has been to get us to overlook him in all our conflicts. In so doing he can more easily manuever and manipulate. Paul tells us here that there is a great deal of "transforming" that goes on in Satan's realm as well. Demon's transform themselves into angels of light, to lead astray and decieve all who would not put them to the test.

But notice the phrase "his ministers...". Is it a shock to you that satan has his own ministers of righteousness? Throughtout churchianity as well as the ranks of Christian Israel, men and women arise, filled with half truth revelations, their subtlety hidden by the veil of "Christian phrases" and so called scholarly research. But their fruits are of a different spirit. They may use the Name of Yahweh/Yahoshua, even speak on the law, but there is a subtlety there which takes a twist and begins to lead astray, away from the Mighty Presence of the Creator and back towards ourselves.

Remember, that satan's closing argument "Ye shall be like God... ", was the bait that led astray the whole of Adam's race ever after. There is only one path to Yahweh, and it consists of less of ourselves and more of Him. Be not decieved.

Yahweh, our Great and Wonderful God

Guide our footsteps, Father, that we may not fall into Satans traps and snares. Protect us Father, we pray. Show us your truth and let not our enemy take it from us.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 13

1John 4:1 "beloved, believe not evey spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God:..."

Some may become confused here, for most of our false prophets these days do come in the Name of Jesus Christ (Yahoshua the Messiah), but there is more here than meets the eye.

First, John tells us here that lying spirits will not confess that Yahoshua the Messiah has come in the flesh. What does this mean? Notice that throughout the gospel, many demons addressed the Messiah as "Son of God", but none ever called Him "Son of man". Yet, this was Yahoshua's favorite way of referring to Himself. The advent of Yahweh to this earth in the form of Yahoshua is a truth no demon can stomach. The divinity of Messiah is the undoing of all the oppression and bondage of the evil one. That Yahweh Himself, would robe a part of Himself in mortal flesh that He might suffer, bleed and die, is too much for the demonic spirits that seek our destruction.

The Divinity of Yahoshua the Messiah is essential and those who cannot confess this simple truth must either be taught, delivered or abandoned.

We give you thanks and praise Yahweh, for you are the One True Living God.

Please grant us the discernment to know the truth when we hear or see it. Enter into our hearts Yahoshua to dispell the darkness and shine Your light on us this day. Through Your glory, the teaching of the false prophets and Satan's messangers wither and dry up. They are blown away as chaff from the wheat and what reamains is the grain of Truth. Hear our prayers and wrap us in your light of truth. Thank you Yahweh/Yahoshua for loving us.

HalleluYah!

Proverbs 11

�@

Matthew 4:1-11 "Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in [their] hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone."

See how Satan came to the Messiah. He does not attack outright, but rather, he questions.

"If thou be the Son of God... " This was not satan's curiosity, but his attempt to provoke Yahoshua, and provoke he did. But there was no selfish pride there that could be provoked, only the Word of Yahweh. " It is written..." With each attack, He which could have commanded legions of angels into combat, responded, "It is written... " The only sword drawn was the word of the Spirit, the word of Yahweh, the law and the prophets. This was enough to vanquish the tempter.

Isaiah 8:20 "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, [it is] because [there is] no light in them."

False prophets abounded in the day of Isaiah, preaching unity, lawlessness, false doctrines and wicked imaginations; leading Israel away from the beauty of Yahweh's Holiness and into every imaginable error and sin. What was Isaiah's method for exposing the false teacher's? "To the law and to the testimony... " So it is in our day. Just as they did then, the false teachers talked much of a loving God, but little of duty, sin or judgement. Casting aside the commandments of Yahweh, they led the chosen people of Yahweh into lawlessness until in the temple itself the worship of Baal and Ashtoreth coexisted alongside that of Yahweh.

"Not everyone that saith unto me Lord, Lord shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven: but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in Heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? and then will I profess unto them, I never knew you : depart from me, ye that work iniquity." Matthew 7:21-23.

Iniquity means lawlessness, without law. Always remember, that the Spirit of Yahweh will not, cannot contradict or do away with the Word of Yahweh. If ever there seems confusion, step away and pray, and The Father will show you the cause. If the cause is our own lack of understanding, Yahweh will give us understanding, but if there is a demonic "something else" The father will reveal that too.

When in doubt, lean not to your own understanding, but cast your cares upon the Father, and stand upon His word.

Heavenly Father, who is true and righteous

Plant a hedge of your angels about us O' Father, that we may not fall into temptation and grant us discernment that we may be able to tell knew when Satan is tempting us and we can us the word to vanquish him and proclaim Your glory.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 146

Matthew 7:1, " Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for it is the law and the prophets.:"

The hirelings of churchianity love to quote the "golden rule", but in the same breath proclaim that we are no longer under the law. Does "the golden rule" actually sound as if the commandments of Yahweh were done away with? Of course not. Yahoshua the Messiah sums up all the essence of the law and the prophets into one phrase: treat others exactly the way you want to be treated.

David saw this in the law, and that is how he could be merciful and loving to Saul. Why do the "ministers" of churchianity not see this also? Most because they have loved their seminaries and commentaries more than they have loved Yahweh's word. They have loved their denominations, their traditions more than they have loved Yawheh. They yearn more for the fellowship of "fellow hirelings" than they yearn for the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.

Others despise the responsibility, the duty of Yahweh's law, and burn to be free of restraint that they may indulge themselves in whatever wickedness presents itself. Then if there is a problem, they can simply ask for forgiveness. The old saying, "it's easier to get forgiveness than permission" sums up their doctrines in a nutshell.

But are they recieving forgiveness? While it is not our place to deny men access to the precious mercy of our Redeemer, the words "I never knew you, depart from me, ye that work iniquity" should strike the fear of Yahweh into our hearts.

If we will fear Yahweh now, we need not be afraid at His coming.

Father Yahweh, Glory be Thy Name

Heal my own heart Yahweh. If there be any grudge or anger toward a brother or sister, be it in my own heart or in the heart of another towards me... reveal it to me now. Grant me the wisdom, strength and courage to face them. Help each of us to repent of our own sins and/or forgive those who wronged us. I come to you now with a repentent heart and ask your forgiveness. Open my eyes to see the truth in all things. Grant me the discernment to know the truth when I see or hear it and live my life according to Your word. Thank you Father Yahweh.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 129

Acts 19:13-16 "then certain of the vagabond jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying we adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a jew, and chief of the priests, which did so. And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped in them and overcame them, so that they fled out of that house naked or wounded."

There is much that could be mined from this passage, but for now let us consider the demon's answer, " Yahoshua I know,..." Yes, for there was a time when this was no demon, but an angel standing in the Presence of the One True God, Yahweh/Yahoshua.The victory of the Messiah was a tragedy for those rebellious demons of hell. Yahoshua sent fear and trembling throughout the regions of the damned.

"... and Paul I know..." What a testimony. To walk in the anointing of the Holy Spirit so powerfully, that you have gained a reputation even in the ranks of the unholy outlaws is a glorious achievement. Most men want fame in the halls of men, to be seen in the presence of the rich, famous, and powerful; to have people know them where ever they go. But to be known by the enemies of Yahweh God themselves, to have reputation in the halls of hell is what truly separates a man of Yahweh from a hireling. Many a saint has lived in absolute obscurity, known only within their own communities, but they had names and reputations beyond this realm, for they walked not in the presence of exalted men, but in the Presence of the Creator of Heaven and Earth.

May we be so well known.

Praise Yahweh in the Highest, great is Your Holy Name

Father grant us the strength that we may be known to your enemies like Paul.

HalleluYah!

Demons knew Yahoshua because He is Yahweh, and at one time they had stood in His Presence. Demons knew of Paul because he now walked in the Presence, the Power, and the Anointing of Yahaweh/Yahoshua. Paul was no mere lecturer, no mere historian nor counselor. Paul was a consecrated vessel, his entire being consumed with the blinding Glory of The One True God, Yahweh.

Just as the children of Israel could not look upon Moses because of the shekinah glory of Yahweh that still adhered to him after coming down from the mountain of divine fellowship, Paul had became a blinding arrow to the slaves of satan. If Paul could be accused of being a ringleader of a sect which had "turned the whole world upside down", it was only because he had turned the demonic realm upside down first.

But these "vagabond jews" had no such reputatuoin. They were exorcists by trade, applying rituals and ceremonies, mostly of pagan Babylonian roots to those tormented by demonic spirits until either they gave up, or the demons pretended defeat only to reappear a little later or in different torments. They had no power, no anointing; for they walked in no Divine Presence.

"... by Jesus whom Paul preacheth..." They did not personally know the Messiah, Paul did.

Is it any wonder we see so much demonic activity and so little deliverance in our modern times. In order to have power against the devil we must walk in the Presence of Yahweh/Yahoshua, for that Presence is our power. But to try and proclaim a Messiah that we have not personally met makes us no better than certain "vagabond jews'.

Heavenly Father Yahweh,

I come before you in humility, a sinner in need of healing. I prostrate myself before you, submitting unto your will and ask for your blessing of the Holy Spirit to enter into my soul; to guide my every step, to rule my tongue so every word that I utter will glorify Your Holy Name. Dispell the fears and doubts from about my heart and let Your light of Truth shine through as it shone within Paul and Your prophets throughout the ages. Help me now Yahweh to walk in Your path.

HalleluYah!

Proverbs 8

James 3:2 "For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect mam, and able also to bridle the whole body."

Isn't it amazing what James does not say here? He does not say "If any man offend not in adultery, or murder or theft. No, he says, "If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man." It is by the courtroom of our words that we often stand judged. But why is this? Of course the law tells us that we are not to be a talebearer or a false witness. But how can a man be perfect by what he says (or doesn't say)?

Matthew 15:18 "But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies. These are the things which defile a man!..."

None of us have perfect hearts, this is obvious. But by controlling our tongues, we control the power of sin in our lives. By directly restraining the words which try to spill out of our mouth, we indirectly hack at the sinful attitudes, thoughts and desires that spawn our words. By making a conscious effort to not speak sin and wickedness, we have made a concious effort to inspect our words before we speak them; and in so doing, we analyze our very reasons behind our words.

If we can begin dedicating our words, our mouths and our tongues to glorify our Father in Heaven, to edify our brothers and sisters, then we must guard our hearts, for it is the heart that we give voice to when we open our lips.

Merciful Father Yahweh

Create a clean heart in me, O Father, and renew a right spirit that my lips speak only Your words. May I not bring a reproach upon Your my Lord and Master.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 65

Proverbs 18:21 "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit there of."

Oh that we would guard the words which spill from our lips! We live in a day when sarcasm is a virtue and profanity considered noble. How many terrible habits have we accumulated in our lives from the sin filled society in which we live. How many curses have we pronounced upon ourselves and others without realizing that we ourselves are the root and cause.

We have spoken poverty, sickness and suffering. We have pronounced rebelliousness upon our children, all the while thinking that we were only being funny and witty or in anger and wrath. But it is not too late. If we will but repent, confess our sin unto our Father, ask for His life changing power through the Blood of the Messiah, Yahoshua, and by the Power of His Holy Spirit, we can begin to speak words of healing rather than wounding, blessings rather than curses.

Isaiah 5:5 "Woe is me! for I am undone: because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips"... then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand... and he laid it upon my mouth and said, lo, this hath touched thy lips: and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sins purged."

There is power to change, and if we will seperate the darkness from the light in our lives and our homes we can be more than conquerors through Yahoshua our Messiah. Pay heed to the words which spill from your mouth for they are formed within your own heart and they betray what things you are truly focused upon.

Glory be to Yahweh, our Heavenly Father

Cleanse our hearts Oh Yahweh/Yahoshua, our hearts, our mouths are open for Thine hot coal to be placed upon our tongues. We beseech Thee to send Your Holy Spirit to set our tongues and lips on fire with Your Holy Word, to proclaim Your glory and Your return... We plead the blood of Yahoshua on ourselves and our families, protect us from the evils of this world. Praise your Holy Name.

HalleluYah.

Psalm 121

Isaiah 8:11 "For the Lord spake thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying, Say ye not a confederacy, to all them to whom this people shall say a confederacy: neither fear ye their fear,nor be afraid. Sanctify the Lord of Hosts himself; and let Him be your fear, and let Him be your dread."

:14 "And He shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offense to both the Houses Israel."

In all that dreadful noise and confusion which calls itself christianity in our day, the idea of "seperating" keeps getting lost. Remember that Yahweh's first act in the "creation week" was to seperate the light from the darkness. We, as children of The Most High, are called to separate ourselves from darkness to come out from among them, to touch not the unclean thing.

2 Corinthians 6:17 " Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye seperate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing. and I will recieve you. And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters saith the Lord Almighty."

Yet there are still so many who call themselves christians, who have neither obeyed the commands of Yahweh nor shown any desire to. Yet claiming Him as their Father, they align themselves with every abomination and unclean thing imaginable. Scripture is unyielding in this. So you wonder why there seems to be no greater Holy Ghost communion or power in your life? Look to the fellowships you keep. Do you claim the name of christian and yet still fellowship with darkness? Cast it off. Repent and come out from among them and the Father will be at your side, upholding you, strengthening you, sharing Himself with you; and His fellowship is worth more than all the friendships and alliances of this world.

Praise the Maker of all things, Heavenly Father Yahweh

Grant us the discernment to know the difference between Your Words and the vain things of our hearts, that we may be recieved unto You.

HalleluYah!

Proverbs 5

Isaiah 8:11-13 :12 "For the Lord spake thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying, Say ye not a confederacy, to all them to whom this people shall say a confederacy: neither fear ye their fear,nor be afraid. Sanctify the Lord of Hosts himself; and let Him be your fear, and let Him be your dread."

There is a great movement throughout christianity to form alliances with other religions which recieve not our Messiah, Yahoshua. But to put aside our "differences" and work together toward common goals. They point to world hunger, the plague of aids, social needs and justice. But these bring "another Yahoshua, another gospel." Their's is a marxist messiah, making all men equal, when all men are not equal. They mix and mingle with pagan worshipers of idols, Messiah haters, atheists and out right abomonations to bring about a man made "kingdom of God". But what king sits upon this throne?

We are told to have no fellowship with them, not even to eat with them, nor bid them good luck. We are called to seperate, but how can we be a "peculiar " treasure unto Yahweh, if we are wallowing in the muck with everyone else? The children of this world fear many things, but we are told not to fear what they fear. Even death holds no terror for those who believe (truly believe) in the Resurrection of the Messiah. Paul was hungry, beaten and falsly imprisoned. He suffered social injustice one on top of another. Yet he gloried in his afflictions and saw them as a sweet fellowship of affliction that was to be shared with his Messiah, who suffered more than all of us.

:13 "Sanctify the Lord of Hosts himself; and let Him be your fear, and let Him be your dread." The plain, simple truth is that there is no fear of Yahweh in our times, not even in those who claim to be His. Today people fear death more than Yahweh, they fear hunger more than they fear Yahweh. They fear the rejection of family and friends more than they fear Yahweh. They fear oppression more than they fear Yahweh. Throughout Churchianity and even within Christian Israel the call is going forth to ally ourselves with whomever and whatever might supposedly bring about our will on earth, thinly disguised by a thin veneer of "christian-speak."

The fear of Yahweh will keep us close to His side, and it is there that we experience the joy of Yahweh.

Praise your Holy Name Yahweh/Yahohshua, King of Kings.

We come to you Heavenly Father Yahweh to ask your forgiveness for our iniquities and strengthen us. Lead us in Your path of righteousness. Shine your light upon our hearts and let Your wisdom dominate our lives. Hear our prayers Yahweh, grant us discernment to know Your will... May Your will be done in all things .

HalleluYah.

Psalm 67

Isaiah 8:11-14 ""For the Lord spake thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying, Say ye not a confederacy, to all them to whom this people shall say a confederacy: neither fear ye their fear,nor be afraid. Sanctify the Lord of Hosts himself; and let Him be your fear, and let Him be your dread.And He shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offense to both the Houses Israel."

Do you seek a safe place in which to hide from the gathering storm? Do you seek a refuge in which to take shelter from the brutal trials of this world? All you will ever need lies in our Heavenly Father. He that created heaven and earth has made us a promise. If we will fear Him more than anything this life can do to us, and obey Him over all others, He will be our sanctuary, our refuge. He who sheltered Noah from the flood, protected the three Hebrew children in the fiery furnace, and stood with Daniel in the den of lions, shall be no less a God unto you. He is there, waiting for someone to dare to believe and obey, and upon such a one, He will pour out His Presence without measure.

See the undeserved love that He has poured out upon HIs Israel people. To wrap Himself in the frailty of human flesh, that He might suffer and die for such undeserving sinners. This is our God. He yearns to reveal Himself unto us in greater measure, if only we would obey. How He longs to be a Father unto us, but still we rebel, still we give Him lip service then go our own ways.

:14 "And He shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offense to both the Houses Israel."

How amazing it is, that Yahweh Himself becomes the problem for so many which claim to be His children. When we love this world and the things of this world more than that which is to come, we stumble and fall. When we love this present life and all that pertains to it more than our eternal life, we stumble and fall. Nothing shall upset the ideas about the Kingdom of Yahweh that many people cherish more, than the actual Kingdom of Yahweh at the Coming of Yahoshua the King.

Guard your heart, christian. Cast yourself upon the Stone and be broken, lest one day unexpectedly, it fall upon you and grind you to powder.

Glorious and Gracious Father, Praise your Holy name.

Open my eyes and my ears, I pray Thee, that I may see and hear your words. Cleanse me Father and set me right.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 149

Isaiah 8:16 "Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my diciples. And I will wait upon the Lord, that hideth His face from the House of Jacob, and I will look for Him."

The disiples of Yahoshua the Messuah were told in no uncertain terms that he that would break the least of Yahweh's commandments and teach other's to do so, would be called least in the Kingdom of Yahweh, but he that would keep and teach them, would be called the greatest. How shall this not apply to every disciple (student/follower) that has been for these past two thousand years?

Here we find Isaiah, obeying and waiting . Thus is the great bulk of our christian pilgrimage. Yahweh reveals Himself unto us in some way, and opens our eyes to some truth. We begin to walk in obedience to the revelation and we wait. The obediance is in the mundane, day to day living out of His law and commands. The children of Israel were quick to pledge themselves unto Yahweh as the holy mountain thundered and burned, but it was in the waiting that they fell in to sin and idolatry.

Obediance is learned in the waiting, for it requires faith to continue on day by day, in the absence of earth moving revelations, and the just shall live by faith.

Heavenly Father Yahweh,

Write your laws upon our hearts Father Yahweh. Hide not Your Face from your servant. Let us walk this pilgramage in the Presence of your Holy Spirit. Lead us down the path of righteousness and guide our every step.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 15

Isaiah 8:17 " And I will wait upon the Lord, that hideth His face from the House of Jacob, and I will look for Him."

Yahweh, our heavenly Father, has been forced to "hide His face" from the house of Jacob many times over our history. When we cease to follow after His Righteousness, when we begin to disobey, when we seek to be like "other nations". Remember, Yahoshua the Messiah said that it was our Father's good pleasure to give us the Kingdom. To turn His Face away from His chosen must be a greivous thing unto our Father, but He cannot and will not abide sin. When we as a people, cease to seperate the darkness from the light, we do seperate ourselves from our Father in Heaven.

:19 "And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: " When a people have cut off the Presence of the One True God from their lives both nationally and individually, our enemy, satan, is only too eager to "fill the void" with a host of clever counterfeits. Spiritism, pagan and heathen religions, the occult; often even wearing the mask of christianity, will sweep in and seduce the hearts of the chosen of Yahweh into a host of demonic influences which only lead deeper into darkness and curse entire generations and bloodlines.

"... should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?" The first King of Israel, Saul, began in the Presence of Yahweh; but through pride, arrogance, then rebellion the Holy Spirit departed from Saul, leaving him empty and tormented by evil spirits, until finally he sought after a witch or medium for instruction. The children of Yahweh, His peculiar people should never be taken into the deception's of the ungodly. There are many deceptions around us in these modern times: The queen of heaven of catholicism, the chanting buddhists and hindus, the abomination's of the native americans, the talmudism of the jews. None of these things are compatible with the true worship of Yahweh according to His Word, and we must flee the very appearance of these things, no matter how "Christianized" they have been made.

The best way to sneek poison into a victim is to hide it within nourishing food.

Yahweh, the One and Only True God

Remember us in Your wrath that we may not be destroyed but made into Your Image and be returned to your Holy and Blessed Hand.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 122

Isaiah 8:19 "And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead? To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, [it is] because [there is] no light in them. "

How do we descern between that which simply calls itself "christian" and that which is truly of Yahweh, our heavenly Father? There are so many lies, deceptions and half truths which saturate our land in these days, how do we flee one and not become entangled with another?

1 John 4:1 "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try [test] the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Here by ye know the Spirit of God : Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God..." The Holy Spirit reveals that Yahoshua the Messiah is come in the flesh. This means that Messiah existed before donning the tabernacle of mortal flesh. He is the Word of Yahweh, He created all things, He is Yahweh in the flesh. He was there inspiring Moses, Samuel, Isaiah, Jeremiah and all the Holy Prophets.

"To the law and the testimony... " Yahoshua the Messiah is the Word, the law and the prophets, and He is made flesh. To deny any aspect of the law, is to deny Yahoshua. :3 "And evey spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ (the word, the law, the prophets, the testimony) is come in the flesh is not of God." We have a divine standard, praise Yahweh, it begins with "In the beginning..." and ends with "even so, come Yahweh/Yahoshua...".

Beware of sentimentality and emotional responses. To the Word, to the law and the prophets. To the Standard, To Yahweh.

Glory be to Yahweh, our Heavenly Father.

There is so much deception and evil in the world today. We need You Yahweh/Yahoshua, more than ever. We are a stiffnecked people undeserving of Your love, but You still give Your love freely. All we need do is trust in You and obey your laws and statutes. We open ourselves to recieve Your laws to be written on our hearts and grant us the discernment to choose wisely in our daily walk with You.

HalleluYah.

Psalm 135

Revelation 2:10 "Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer..."

Yahweh/Yahoshua does not promise us clear skies and smooth roads. He promises exactly the opposite. He promises us that we will be rejected, we will be hated. Why? Because He was rejected, He was hated. If we were to cast aside our convictions and our confessions, we would be welcomed into all manner of places with open arms. But cling tight to the Messiah and His words of Holiness, and even the homes in which we grew up will become alien and inhospitable to us.

It was once written, "Why is it then, that the church has conformed to the world's standard and therefore awakens no opposition... It is only because of compromise with sin, because the great truths of the word of God are so indifferently regarded, because there is so little vital godliness in the church, that christianity is apparently so popular with the world. Let there be a revival of the faith and power of the early church and the spirit of persecution will be revived, and the fires of persecution will be rekindled."

If you appear to have no enemies, perhaps you should wonder why you have so many friends.

Father Yahweh, Blessed are you who is Holy and Mighty above all.

Blessed Father, pour out Your Holy Spirit on us, We pray, and give us the strength to endure the trials ahead. Be with us in this time of hardships. HalleluYah!

Psalm 128

John 15:18 "If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love it's own: but ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you."

There is a principle at work seen throuoghout all creation, that light and darkness may not mix. If the light is lessened and the darkness increased, you create a dismal gloom. A creature of the night may not come out in the fully revealing light of day, but if clouds cover the sun, or dusk begins, then they may be seen coming forth from their dens. Likewise, when the children of Israel put away all sin and rebellion and walk in the full, glorious light of our Father Yahweh and of our Messiah Yahoshua, our enemies may clamor against our borders, but they cannot tolerate to be in our midst. If, however, we dim that great light, by compromising with sin and with the world, then our enemies can be seen walking arrogantly among us.

And what of us individually? If we shine the light without restraint, we may draw the lost lamb, but we will not be loved by the rest. Only those who hear the Voice of the True Shepherd rejoice to see the light. Those who love the darkness, or perhaps even the gloom of churchianity, will not only reject us (and our accompanying light) but will become our greatest foes.

But Yahweh has not called us to "win friends and influence people.:" He has called us to shine, to blaze in every fiber of our being His consuming flame. To some, we are a beacon of light, to most however, we are a witness that shall be against them on the day of judgment.

Shine, O follower of the Blessed Messiah! Though the world turn to seek your very life, be not afraid. but shine, and the glory of the coming Kingdom will add your lignt to it's own.

We give you thanks and praise Yahweh/Yahoshua for Your unrelenting love and tender mercies.

Facing the choices we do each day, between the ways of the world and Your word... separating the light from the darkness is not an easy thing for us to do. Temptations increase and are greater each day because Satan is getting desparate in these last days. We can not do it without you Yahweh/Yahoshua. Come into our hearts, grant us the discernment to recognize and be able to separate the light from the darkness. Shine Your light of truth upon us and dispell the darkness from our lives.

HalleluYah.

Proverbs 18

1 Peter 4:12 "Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you."

It is not in human nature to be glad when we are rejected, hated and persecuted. Our flesh cringes, our emotions are thrown into upheavel, our ego's scream for vindication. We want to be left alone, allowed to serve Yahweh in peace and quiet. But enemies abound. Governments loom over us, seeking opportunity against us. The ungodly seek to make sport of us and to ridicule us. Even among those confessing to be children of Yahweh and of Israel, there are wolves in wooly coats, waiting to pounce like the ravenous beasts they actuallly are.

And over all of them is an evil so determined that his name was changed from "son of the morning" to "adversary". He hates and despises the true worship of Yahweh/Yahoshua and has engineered an entire world system to hound those who would worship the creator in spirit and truth, hound them to the very end of days.

We live in a fallen world, completely under the dominion of an evil rebel, who mocks Yahweh's simple law with ten thousand times ten thousand laws, rules and ordinances of men, designed not to bring order, but rather chaos. He mocks the worship of Yahweh with a seemingly endless line of pagan, heathen religions, cults and philosophies. He mocks Yahweh's holiness with all manner of disgraceful and wretched lifestyles. He mocks Yahweh's chosen people with a false lineage of usurpers and blasphemers. His influence has reached into every nook, every cranny; mocking and dispising the Most High with governments, systems, churches, nations, music, culture and religion, until all the earth is saturated with his malice.

Are you really surprised that you are hated?

Most High Father Yahweh

Praise Him who is Greatest among all things. Father Yahweh Thank you for your protection and for those who hate us. For this is sign that we are truly Yours and we ask for You to always look upon us and try us.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 148

1 Peter 4:13 " But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that when His glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part He is evil spoken of, but on your part He is glorified."

Christians, so-called, in our present day find themselves encumbered by a great many things. They concern themselves over "social issues" rather than holiness, ecology and "earth awareness" instead of the soon coming of the King of Kings. The church has become altogether worldly and as such suffers no real persecution, How unlike the saints of the past.

Few are aware now, of the Waldenses. These early christians, adhering to the law of Yahweh in absolute obediance, resisted the rise of the Roman Beast, and for a thousand years, were hidden in the Alps. Here they upheld the true faith, once delivered unto the saints, living lives of simple faith in the harshest of enviroments. They sent out their undercover missionaries and raised up future generations to protect the truth of Yahweh's Holy word.

Unlike today's children, the children of the Waldenses grew up learning of toil and labor, but also understanding the love and mercy of the Messiah. These children were trained from the earliest age to expect trial and persecution, and to endure all things, even a martyr's death. The result was a people forged into iron steadfastness for Yahoshua the Messiah. Their lives were lived in love and obedieance, and in their deaths, they sang praises unto their God to the bitter end.

How different this current generation. No wonder Yahoshua asked the question, "When the son of man comes, will He find faith in the earth?"

Let us throw out our entertainments and idols, that we might begin to cultivate endurance of spirit, and teach our children a better inheritance and a living legacy.

I bow my head to give thanks and praise to You, Yahweh, the One True Living God.

Cleanse my heart of the temptations of this world. Fill my life with Your Presence and your Holy word. Keep the devil at bay and don't let me fall into reproach. I need Your Presence in my life Yahweh, for You are my rock and my refuge, above You there is no other.

HalleluYah.

Psalm 123

1 Peter 4:15 "But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's affairs."

There are many that would claim to be suffering for Yahoshua's sake, but in reality they are only reaping what they have sown. There is a vast difference, and he that would admit to the truth would be a better man and wiser, than those who refuse to face their own sinful natures. Only then can true repentance and forgiveness begin.

And think not that this refers to slander. Righteous Joseph was not cast into Pharoah's prison for being dutiful and honorable. While he had done no wrong and had even fled from temptation, he was cast into the prison labeled as an attempted rapist. Many an innocent man or woman has been persecuted slanderously, because no fault could be found otherwise. Even Messiah, who never sinned, was charged with treason against the Roman empire.

:16 "Yet if any man suffer as a christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God in his behalf." Think of Joseph, guilty of no wrong, yet betrayed and sold into slavery. But he chose to glorify the God of Jacob Israel as he was, a slave. But his righteousness brought more suffering and he was branded as an attempted rapist, and cast into the prison, but even here, Joseph served Yahweh and walked still uprightly. In the end, he ruled all of Egypt, second only to Pharoah.

In this life, if we will walk in the beauty of holiness and worship Yahweh/Yahoshua in spirit and in truth, we will suffer at some point. But if we can still worship and glorify the One True Living God, even in the midst of suffering Yahweh will meet us there and comfort us and bring us peace in ways that we may never have dreamed.

And in the end we too will rule and reign, in a Kingdom that has no end.

Praise Yahweh, Lord and Master of the Universe.

Heavenly Father strengthen us to walk upright in your sight and bring Your Kingdom soon.

HalleluYah!

Psalm 117

1 Peter 4:17 " for the time is come for the judgement to begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?"

Where does suffering figure into the judgement of Yahweh God? Simple, remember Joseph in Egypt, Moses in Midian, David in exile. Each of these men were called of Yahweh for specific purposes, grand purposes. But before they could be entrusted with their callings, they first had to go through Yahweh's school of suffering, the furnace by which they would be refined as silver. Here in the fiery trials that assaulted them, they were forged into men of righteousness. All that was not of The Father was burned up, and these men became great heroes of the faith.

Our Heavenly Father has a grand design for His Israel people, but before we can embrace our destiny, we must endure the fires of affliction, to be made more and more into our Father's likeness. We simply do not learn in any other way . And remember, that Yahweh pours out His glory and His wrath side by side.

"... and if the righteous scarcely be saved... " Do we dare to rebel against the hand of The Father? Yahweh is trying to get us to look beyond this pitiful life and reachout for that life immortal. But it is only as we let go of this world, that we can get a better grip on the world to come.

:18 "Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to HIm in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator."

Let go of this world, fellow pilgrim. Embrace your suffering and find more of The Father than you ever believed possible. Our time here is brief, but in our Father's Kingdom we will enjoy an eternity.

Heavenly Father Yanweh/Yahoshua, You are my rock and salvation, Glory be thy Name.

Let me be a light onto Your people. Use me as an instrument of salvation. I freely dedicate my life to Your glory Yahweh/Yahoshua, place the hot coal upon my tongue and the spirit of truth in my heart. Grant me the endurance of Joseph, Moses,and David your servents, to continually walk in Your truth through the fiery furnace of adversity. I give You thanks and praise Yahweh.

HalleluYah.

Psalm 14

Matthew 5:11 " Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in Heaven, for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you,"

How shall we ever be able to rejoice and be glad at persecution, at suffering, at being slandered and hated? Human nature desires comfort, acceptance and fellowship. Suffering, rejection, and solitude do not appeal to most people.

It is only in the letting go of this world and this life that we are able. John the Baptist had a thriving ministry. All of Judea went out to him. He was hailed as a prophet, a great prophet, some even wondered if he might not be Messiah. But when Yahoshua stepped onto the scene, John did not hesitate , but began to point to the true Messiah. When told that Yahoshua's diciples baptized more than he, he never suffered an instant of remorse, but declared " He must increase, but I must decrease."

The only way to grab hold of more of Yahweh and His Kingdom is to let go of this world, the things of this life, all the amusements, the treasures, the fleeting glories. Let them go. Eternity stands before us. The Creator, the One True God, Yahweh beckons us. Let it all go and you will find comfort, acceptance and fellowship. As you suffer you will discover the comfort of the Holy Spirit of Yahweh in measure beyond understanding. As you are rejected, you will be accepted into a company of prophets and saints, of whom the world was not worthy. In your solitude, you will discover fellowship and communion with Yahweh/Yahoshua as you have never imagined. It is all there, waiting to be grasped, and all we have to do is let go.

Heavenly Father Yahweh

Help us to let go of this world. That we may come to you rejoicing and praising Your Name. Show us how to be more like you and show us patience as we learn. Praise Yahweh Most High.

HalleluYah!
