Your Deliverance Has a New Look

The Way is Hard Pressed [leading to life], and, not many there are that find it (Matthew 7:14).

Deliverance has a new look.

Let’s talk today about how difficult it might be for us to keep our bearing. Scripture speaks of the Way in terms of struggle and pain during the walk. Hence, there is misconception brought about by those who deliver these messages of prosperities which has deceived us to the point that we do not look any place to find Yah, except in our wallets.

Then we should ask then what if our wallets are empty? Or what if our houses are substandard? What if we don’t own a car, or the car is in disrepair? What then are we to do with ourselves if the Way is prosperity which everyone seeks, then, where does that leave many of us who love the Most High?

Think again and consider what that means.

If people continue to take in the lie, then we begin to see this is the very reason why trust has been lost. Many people have lost trust in the Most High,  because no matter how they try there is still trouble, hopelessness, and struggle. Hence, what we need to do is look elsewhere, because the Way is hard pressed and not easy as in prosperity teaches.

See:

“Enter in through the narrow gate! Because the gate is wide – and the way is broad – that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter in through it. “Because the gate is narrow and the way is hard pressed [or the way is afflicted] which leads to life, and there are few who find it” (Matthew 7:13-14).

Today: Press through the lies and hypocrisy of erroneous teaching and know that your answer is in the search of Truth in the Most High who says He will be found when we search with our whole [entire] heart. What that means is that He is not in our wallets as is the thing in the broad road to destruction.

For your hearing:

Matthew 7

Did the Most High Create Evil?

Here are some terms which without doubt are causing confusion concerning Isaiah 45:7 which reads, “Forming light and creating darkness, making peace and creating evil. I, יהוה, do all these.’ [Read the entire text to understand better].

For this analysis we are concentrating on Yah saying through the prophet Isaiah that he creates evil, because it is here that people are being confused and yelling that Yahuah doesn’t create evil the devil does. Well, true, the devil does create evil situations through people, but in and of himself cannot create evil. Hence, if Yahuah created Satan and Satan is evil then Yahuah created evil. Does that make sense?

See then, that Yahuah created man in his image, right? However, because of sin man is made evil then if Yahuah created man, and sin is evil, then, Yahuah created evil also, because if that were not the case then there would be no evil. Then we see [too] the fact that evil and good is in the plan of free will. Hence, without evil to choose as an alternative then there is not a thought process, because people tend to choose from the choices available to them. Hence, the scripture “Choose life, choose this day who you will serve”.

Here are a choice of words that may deflect truth.

calamity —an event causing great and often sudden damage or distress; a disaster.

A disaster can be a natural event, or even a trial for some people, however, one cannot say that the disaster is evil though people might be killed, injured or displaced. What a calamity does is create a situation allowed by the Most High to get our attention so that we can call him. In essence, calamities happen but are not necessarily evil.

In fact, scripture tells us do not fear, ” Do not be afraid of sudden dread, Nor of the ruin of the wrong when it comes; For יהוה is at your side, And He shall guard your foot from being caught.” (Proverbs 3:25-26).

The same thing here:

disaster
a sudden event, such as an accident or a natural catastrophe, that causes great damage or loss of life.

Hence, the use of terminology is misleading the flock. For example, there was a calamity created during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina when people resorted to looting in their time of distress. These then, are conditions of immoral character which is evil brought on my a natural disaster, that is killing, stealing, and even rape occurring, however, the event [the natural disaster] itself was not evil.

What is evil? To be evil says that people are profoundly immoral and malevolent.

 

The term malevolent here is important. Malevolent means that a person(s) is intentionally bring harm to people which was the case when after the flood in Louisiana, there was no immediate help though officials were promising that help would arrive, people had no humane facilities, no food, no water and no rescue for days. Hence, evil in the face of a disaster.

The problem here then is knowing which is which.

Ahh–There it is! Are You Sleeping?

“And have no fellowship with the fruitless works of darkness, but rather convict them. For it is a shame even to speak of what is done by them in secret. But all matters being convicted, are manifested [made known] by the light, That He says, ‘Wake up, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Messiah shall shine on you.’ See then that you walk exactly, not as unwise, but wise, redeeming the time, because the days are wicked. So then do not be foolish, but understand what the desire of Yahuah is. [Eph’siyim (Ephesians) 5:11-17].

 

 

In a court of law is where people are tried for their crimes, supposedly, by a jury of their peers. However, witnesses are put on the stand in offense, defense, and character. In this thing we find that some people bear false witness swearing that it is truth. More specifically, even witness testimony has been found to be perjurious in some instance–unreliable. Consequently, these are they who sway a jury to make render a verdict, that is guilty or not guilty. It is by the testimony and the evidence thereof.

 

It is also the case, that evidence can cause a conviction, that is are your finger prints all over the place, are you caught on tape, or did they see your face? Today know that the Most High sees and does not slumber. For this lesson, we will see that the word convicts and we must change whatever that means for us,  or be sentenced to death. For it is by grace [unto repentance] that we are saved.

 

Someone accused me of being critical and I say today that it is not critical if proof of the wrong is made known, that is, factual evidence that supports the word of the Book. Then who can argue that wrong is shown up. For example, if someone posts a picture of idols. It is the case that because I bring truth of what an idol is, such as crosses, and other trinkets we hold dear. It is the case, that then the word have convicted [through me] because Yahuah will not come to earth and whip us into correction himself he does that through the book. I am the one who brought that to your attention perhaps, but the truth is truth no matter who believes it Yah is calling us to repent.

 

 

My sister and I were sharing the other week and speaking of idols and she told me that she found out that these also include anything that Yahuah created, that is birds of the air, fish in the sea to animals such as bears. I love bears and have a few of those, ceramic and she says anything that resembles a created thing. Thanks sis Audrey Graham. So am I offended and believe her to be critical? No, I find that she is correct and with that it is up to me whether or not if I get rid myself of the bears.

That brings to mind this verse:

 “You do not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of that which is in the heavens above, or which is in the earth beneath, or which is in the waters under the earth, you do not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, יהוה your Elohim am a jealous Ěl, visiting the crookedness of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing kindness to thousands, to those who love Me and guard My commands.” (Exodus 20:4-6).

 

Hence, people are without excuse. In other words. who can argue, or rather, who finds it critical? Then, I suggest that we read the Book. There is a word of everything if we care to know it. It’s in the Book.

 

 

 

So then we have been misled about this. Is it worth it, then, to keep on with it when Yah says not to?

For your hearing:

Exodus 20

Ephesians 5

Romans 1

 

We Were Once Trees, but Now We are Stumps

We are reading in Isaiah.

We were once trees, but now we are stumps.

From Chapter 11 it reads, “Isa 11:1 And a Rod shall come forth from the stump of Yishai, and a Sprout from his roots shall bear fruit. The Spirit of יהוה shall rest upon Him – the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of יהוה, ”

I don’tknow why we believe that the Messiah came for people looking good and smelling pretty. From the looks and sound of this verse there is indication there that Yahushua was born into a wretched and messy family. Sounds exactly like black folk.

The minute we stop overeating, lose a little weight, or come off the cocaine, or stop whoring around, or get a little degree or make a dollar past two we become puffed, proud and arrogant. Don’t let us know a scripture, because then we go about acting holier than thou. And I asked what happened to the person underneath all the make up and hair whatever became of his or her heart?

Being that we are so caught up in new design, who did this and that we never really start to seek an answer for our problems which brought us to the point of overeating, smoking crack, whoring. Hence, the only thing we did was seek stuff to make us be whole, but are we really, whole?

We were once trees, but now we are stumps. Kinda like we don’t realize we have been cut down, but for that reason since we’ve been cut down Yahuah come to save us. If we have not that connection then we die, but because Yah has a hand on us and allows us to ask forgiveness we can become one with him—again.

My neighbor’s tree will be an illustration of this message. That tree has been torn and falls apart with every wind and rain, however, because of the root that tree stands strong even though there are parts rotted and there are parts cut off…new life forms because they are connected to the source .

Do Not Worry and Do Not Fret!

The Most High has prepared for our mindset of being accepted and of our tendency to worry about having what we need, or to worry about what another person has. Seems like many of us worry to much about what we will wear and how we will look, where we will live or even how we will do these things, but He says do not worry. That is a great thing to have a word to turn to, however, we have to be in a mind still to accept that word of encouragement “Do not”, and most importantly “Do not fret” because we see evil doers prospering.

I don’t chase down money. I need it, even may need a job, but I don’t beg for or covet people’s stuff. People might believe that everyone has that spirit of wanting their stuff, being envious and jealous but I am not that way. If you have whatever you have that is good for you. However, some of you I see that you are probably tired and worn out because of trying to keep up. I don’t have a competitive spirit. Hence, if I write, work or play I do it unto Yah, because he is bigger than you and me and he owns it, that is, everything. Therefore, I am not without anything and if I lose anything it is because the time has been spent with that.

He says, “You cannot be a slave of two masters; you will hate one and love the other; you will be loyal to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money. “This is why I tell you: do not be worried about the food and drink you need in order to stay alive, or about clothes for your body. After all, isn’t life worth more than food? And isn’t the body worth more than clothes?” (Matthew 6:24-25).

Particularly note, the use of the term slave. Here we see that black people cringe at this term. However, it is used quite often in text to denote bondage to something, enslaved to a system. Hence, people can become slaves to anything without even knowing, that is to money, sex, dependency on other people, as in human trafficking, food, clothes, lustful passions such as being angry. Yes, we can become addicted to being angry to the point of killing another for what they have. Does that make sense? Then start today to change that thinking.

Today: Say I will not worry about what I do not have, for Yahuah has created a place for me. I will not fret about tomorrow and concentrate on what is before me today to get done. Today I have victory, because it is Yah’s plan and its a good one.

Matthew 6

The Reign of Heaven on Earth

The reign of heaven is not what we think.

We should look deeply at this this term reign because Yahshua says he is giving us the reign of heaven and we shouldn’t be so quick to think money and wealth so quickly. If Yah says, “Do not worry,” and “I will supply your needs” this brings to light that someone is not living a glam filled life.

So listen, to have the reign of heaven on earth is what this means {Matthew 7].

To reign on earth one has to have thinking of predominance, or rather to hold the position and name of sovereign with out exercising the ruling power. In other words, to reign on earth we enjoy the privileges of a heavenly lifestyle until its time to take our place again as royal priests. That means, control over our thoughts, our lifestyles as chosen, beloved and graced of Yah. Does that make sense?

Look at this:

Mat 13:44 “Again, the reign of the heavens is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man having found it, hid, and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
Mat 13:45 “Again, the reign of the heavens is like a man, a merchant, seeking fine pearls,
Mat 13:46 who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it.

So then we are finding truth of identity and giving up ungodliness for righteousness or right thinking to live set apart.

You have heard sold out, or you have heard do not cast your pearls to the swine, then this is it? The reign of heaven on earth.

Few there are who find it. The narrow gate.

Your Sunday Bread: Upon this Rock?

Today I wanted to share an enlightening piece of information for many church goers who believe that the building they frequent on Sunday morning is the place to be. In actuality, that place is not even scriptural.

Let me begin by reminding or acquainting with the scripture speaking about Yahushua chasing those people out of Yah’s temple because they were doing everything but what was supposed to be done there, that is, teaching and worship. Moreover, we see that Yahushua told them that his Father’s House was not a den for thieves, and secondly, let us remember that the temple spoken of was the temple of Jerusalem which is mentioned in Ezra 3 where the Hebrews came from all around and gave willingly for the building of that place that Yah had designated.Let us also note, that this temple is the one mention and the one which had been taken over with idolatrous activity and the tradition of men (Mark 7) (See: Destruction of the temple).The premise here is that there were not so called churches being built here, there and everywhere, but one temple,the rebuilding of the temple and the destruction of the temple.

The New Temple (Assembly).

Later we see after the resurrection Yahushua calling the 11 taught ones together and Peter (Kepha) as the Messenger instructed, Mary (Mariam) and the other ladies (Mark 16).”And he said to them, “Do not be much astonished. You seek יהושע of Natsareth, who was impaled. He was raised – He is not here! See the place where they laid Him. “And go, say to His taught ones, and Kĕpha, that He is going before you into Galil. You shall see Him there as He said to you.” (Mar 16:6 ,7).

Here is the Conversation between Yahushua, the taught ones and Peter:

Yahushua: “Who do men say the Son of Aḏam is?”

Taught ones: “Some say Yoḥanan the Immerser, and others Ěliyahu, and others Yirmeyahu or one of the prophets.”

Yahushua: ““And you, who do you say I am?”

Shi’mon Kepha (Simon Peter): “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living Elohim.”

Yahushua: Blessed are you, Shimʽon Bar-Yonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father in the heavens. “And I also say to you that you are Kĕpha, and on this rock I shall build My assembly, and the gates of the grave shall not overcome it.” “And I shall give you the keys of the reign of the heavens, and whatever you bind on earth shall be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever you loosen on earth shall be having been loosened in the heavens.”

***Binding and loosing denotes the ability to exercise authority. Hence, the right to allow permission of a thing, or to prohibit a thing. Therefore I give permission for the enemy to feed me lies or I prohibit the lie by casting out every evil imagination which rises itself up against the Mighty One of Yisra’el.

***The rock mention here is  the argument gives  Christianity to build churches is not what we believe considering the text. It is the case that the “Rock” means literally a foundation. Hence, Peter reveal the identity of Yahushua as the Son of the Living Elohim, then this is the foundation which Peter acknowledged. In essence, Yahushua says that Peter would gain recognition for his insight to truth and upon that truth is the foundation to which the assembly is wrought.

Doesn’t look like we have this foundation made plain to build on does it? This indicates too, that Yah is not speaking to everyone saying they are called as His representative.

There is no other name.

He who has an ear let him hear.

Fallen Sheep

This is good word to start the day. 

Many of us have received truth, especially receiving truth about Yah/Yahshuah’s name. There is not a secret….many of us are really concerning ourselves with what others are going to think about them should they make it known that they no longer believe; or rather, no longer see that Jesus is the way. Moreover, some are beginning to be challenged in their belief that Jesus is the name above all names by which one can be saved. Why? It is because Yah is revealing truth that truth has been taken away and other meanings added to, which he adamantly (in text) warns against. 

Now then if the word says, “If you deny me before men,” does that mean Jesus, because a multitude/mass of people claim Jesus, Lord, God everywhere. All over the nation and abroad, Christianity being the largest religion in the world, and Catholicism being 2nd. There is not a instance of denial there. 

This denial then has come after one has learned truth. “If you deny me before men, I will deny you before my Father in heaven.” Right!

Therefore, it must be that this is not the name…Because, again, no one denies the name of Jesus besides a few awaken.

Today: Rethink that thing, challenge this doctrine of Satanic thinking and say…reality checks game. Yahshuah is the only way. It cannot be denied. The narrow gate is not the way of Christian thinking.

Something else that is not new

As I was reading the letter from the white guy who said, in other words, blacks are still slaves. I was really hurt, but never did get angry though because of the way it was written. It is the case that tone played a huge part in that; or, it could be growth in the area of accepting truth. Whatever, the case, I got it; that is, black people look down on each other because of stuff we acquire, and it’s nothing new. 

In James 1, there is much time spent speaking of asking for wisdom, because without it we can find ourselves in some rough places. He writes, “If any of you lack wisdom let as of Elohim…” doesn’t say run and ask bff and the boys, but to ask the right Source for it. Conversely, we seek out advice from the wrong people, because we are hung up on looks. Hence, she is a Psychiatrist, He’s a Pastor, they have a Doctorate, or a Master of Divinity and so on.

Let it be known today that outward looks kill spirits. Therefore, all the aforementioned titles look good on one’s resume’, however, what about wisdom? We must know there is no way to fight without it.

About wisdom he says, “Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation, but the rich in his humiliation, because as the flower of the field he shall pass away. For the sun rose with burning heat, and withered the grass, and its flower fell, and its pretty appearance perished. So shall the rich man shall fade away in his ways. (v.9-11).

You know what, with all happening I am happy to walk where I walk now. Let me tell you, someone keeps reminding me that if it had not been for a certain someone I dealt with early on; I could have been finished with school and so on…but I tell you what, I would not know what I know now, see what I see, and have the wisdom I have; nor would I have been called out from the madness of thinking I need more money, to get rich to be righteous. I boast then in my exaltation because I can make it through….and stand the test.

What about it? The testing. James continues and says, “Blessed is the man who does endure trial, for when he has been proved he shall receive the crown of life which the Master has promised to those who love Him.”

People out there chasing money are missing out on true relationship with Yahwah. Oh, we believe that petty giving in offering, dressing up our sin is making up for it…and that it is Yah who blesses with stuff.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Satan blesses with toys, Yah blesses with wisdom. Get that way down in your spirit. We can remember Kanye Wests’ statement about selling his soul for a “few toys and a happy meal.”

The Scriptures are clear, we cannot serve two Masters…

Who do you serve?

For your hearing:

” Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine, and does them, shall be like a wise man who built his house on the rock, and the rain came down, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. “And everyone who hears these words of Mine, and does not do them, shall be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand, and the rain came down, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and they beat on that house, and it fell, and great was its fall.” And it came to be, when יהושע had ended these words, that the people were astonished at His teaching,
for He was teaching them as one possessing authority, and not as the scribes.” (Matthew 7: 24-29)

Dancing to the music, or facing it…will you bow?

“Then an herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages, [That] at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up: And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.” (Daniel 3:4-6).

We already know what time it is and it is time out for these excuses to continue on in idol worship. Let’s face the music shall we. America is full of idols, everywhere we look is a statue of some sort going up in memorial of something or someone. Here in Texas, the famous State Fair idol ‘Big Tex’ burned to the ground because of some electrical short. However, instead of allowing by-gones to stay gone…they built another one; a new and improved one. In downtown Fort Worth, a larger than life statue is placed in memorial of John F. Kennedy for no other reason than ‘he stopped by’ on the way to Dallas to be killed. These are just a few examples of an idolized city; so, let us imagine the nation as a whole in this.

But what does the word say…” Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.” (Exodus 20:3-4).

Now one could argue that the images mentioned are not worship; however, the word says “make anything” hence we have erred in this and most probably because the commandments have been tossed out.

See this clearly:

1) Graven image
2) Or any likeness
3) In heaven above
4) Or in the earth beneath
5) Or in the water under the earth
So I ask, what in the world are have we done? Do we know? Someone is just doing their own thing at the expense of everyone else.

Look at this:
“Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height [was] threescore cubits, [and] the breadth thereof six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon. Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.” (Daniel 3:1-2).
Everyone who is anyone was invited to the unveiling of the golden image, much like, the unveiling of the images aforementioned. Also, we see the unveiling and ribbon cuttings for other entities; like, our new mercantile, our new church which seats almost the entire city, our new homes. Is anyone getting this vision.

Is there one to say enough is enough?

For more on the saga of idol worship in your town see, Daniel 3 .

There is nothing new under the sun…unless you change it.
