Scripture Study- Isaiah 41:13, “For I, the Lord your God, will hold your right hand,

28 Apr

Isaiah 41:13, speaks to the enduring protection given by YAH for those washed by the blood of Jesus Christ. The right hand signifies a place of honor in the Bible, signifying that the Most High protects and cares for each and everyone of His children. This is very encouraging as we will go through hard times on Earth, knowing that He is always watching over you providing guidance

In Christ we are given access to the Father, the ability to ask boldly for guidance and His protection. This protection covers grief, mental illness, health concerns and a plethora of other concerns while we are here in the flesh. The spiritual presence of YAH is here, and will always be here for those that reflect the image of Jesus Christ.

2 Thessalonians 3:3, “But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.” In times of hardship take solace in the right hand of YAH, for protection and strength in order to endure, Shalom.

Trust In YAH’s Process During Trials…

18 Apr

Mark 14:36, “And He said, “Abba, Father, all things are possible for You. Take this cup away from Me; nevertheless, not what I will, but what You will.”

During times of uncertainty it is imperative to keep our Faith in the Most High, trusting Him in all matters. This is especially the case during trials and tribulations, that we pray for His glory to be shown. Jesus Christ in Mark 14:36 prayed to the Father that if by any means for the sins of the world to be taken away other than by death let it be, but in the end let YAH’s will be done. We too need to give our entire situation over to Him despite the outcome we may see happen. 

This process is always for the edification of not only ourselves but for the Church. Ephesians 4:12, “for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.” This edification provides encouragement to all, so when our faith is tested we can endure unto the end. Great examples of trusting in YAH are found in the Gospel’s, the book of Job, Acts and the Apostle Paul’s work (2 Corinthians 11:16-33).

Encouragement can always be found in the scriptures, knowing  that glory is always the end result for our Faith. Trust in YAH, masking His will your own. Enduring the process of trials and tribulations for the glory of all, Shalom…

Scripture Study- 1 Sam 15:22, “Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, As in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, And to heed than the fat of rams.

11 Apr

To obey is better than sacrifice is the statement made here by YAH. In short, being obedient is always better than to sin and repent later. Saul in chapter 15 of 1 Samuel was given direct orders from the Most High to destroy not only King Agag but the entirety of the Amalek’s, instead choosing to spare the King and the best of the livestock for their own use (1 Sam 15:7-9). 

This teaching moment is important for us today as well. For when the Lord gives us direct instructions, which can be to distance ourselves from a job, friends, or loved ones at times due to them hindering our spiritual growth. Not to leave the door cracked but to close it completely. We never want to only partly obey YAH as it is His will we are bringing to this world and not our own (Matthew 6:9).

Why is obedience such a big deal in the eyes of the Lord? This is due to Him wanting us to honor His authority, trusting Him with our lives and living totally by Faith in Jesus Christ. I pray we fully trust him today and not have to repent for disobedience tomorrow, Shalom…
