Casting Your Pearls Before Swine…

7 Jan

Matthew 7:6, “Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces.”

Matthew 7 verse 6, speaks to believers not spending exhausting time sharing the Gospel with those who have hardened their hearts. At times, we try to persuade close friends or influential people to accept Christ when in their hearts they have already chosen not to. While we hope that everyone will come into the belief in our Lord Jesus Christ they never will due to their fortified unbelief.

We are only to try to share, but if met with opposing criticism to move on. Imagine spending an entire day trying to complete a single task when many more still remain. The same goes for the Gospel message. Matthew 9 verse 37 states, “ Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few.” What one person discards another will cherish. 

The Gospel message is for everyone, but we must be wise to whom we spend our time sharing it. We are only to share, and the Holy Spirit will draw them unto the cross of Jesus Christ, shalom

No Fear For The New Year…

29 Dec

Isaiah 41 verse 10, “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

As we move closer to the new year, I will like to encourage every believer to be steadfast in the Faith. Even with the outlook of wars, economic failure and new world leadership, YAH is sovereign overall. The Lord has been with us in 2024 and will see us into 2025. We know that trying times are ahead of us as the scripture has told us.

2 Tim 3:1-5,”This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.”

Luke 21:28, comforts us to know that during troubling times to look up because our salvation draws near! This is only made by the grace of YAH given through Jesus Christ sacrifice. Paying the penalty for death us and allowing those who believe to escape death and sin. As the final days of 2024 wind down, know that the Lord has you! He’s already there interceding on our behalf, Shalom…

Michael, YAH’s Warrior Angel…

10 Dec

Revelation 12:7, “And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought.”

Michael the archangel is the Most High’s warrior angel, contending for the Lord on mankind’s behalf in the spiritual realm. Mentioned in the scriptures as doing battle with Satan and his fallen angels namely in Daniel 10 verse 13 and 21, Jude chapter 1 verse 9 and Revelation 12 verse 7.

In the book of Daniel, Michael fought for the prophet, “ But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia.” 

Jude 1 verse 9, “ Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, “The Lord rebuke you!”

As well as in being a pivotal individual in the end time events, Revelation 12 verse 7-8, “And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer.”

While a soldier now, Michael was made a warrior having to take up arms against Satan and his rebellious angels. While the angelic hosts are described as praise and worshippers, in the distant past Michael had to lay this aside in order to fight for the Lord.

In the same way we need to set aside the sin nature in order to fight for our redemption and that of our loved ones. Looking to Christ for strength, by way of the Cross. While we are not archangels, we are in total servitude to the source of their power in YAH. As we prepare for spiritual warfare let us contend for the faith like Michael the archangel, laying aside who we use to be in order to be who He wants us to be, Shalom…

We Are Fighters Of The Faith…

25 Nov

1 Timothy 6:12,”Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.”

The Christian faith draws many similarities to the sport of boxing. Such as when first starting we are amateurs, not knowing all there is to know but striving to strengthen our faith to contend with the enemy. Much like each boxers training session in the gym perfecting their punches or for us in Church, learning more of Jesus Christ and perfecting our faith.

The day will also come when we will be required to utilize our faith or trainning in earthly trials. Please know that no matter the hardship, the Holy Spirit of YAH is in our corner guiding us through every round and ultimately to victory. Psalm 144:1 states, “Blessed be the Lord my strength which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight.”

While fighting is a direct result of this fallin world, the Lord has equipped us for battle.Though having to contend for the faith here on Earth, YAH promises a day when we can take our gloves off and only praise him. 2 Tim 4:7-8, “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: henceforththere is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing,” Shalom…

Curators Of His Word…

4 Nov

LUKE 11:28, “ But He said, “More than that, blessed are thosewho hear the word of God and keep it!”

A curator is defined as a keeper or custodian of a museum or other collection. Since the Lord Jesus left to go and prepare a place for us (John 14:2), we are left with the task of sharing the Gospel message with the world. Speaking in Mark 16:15, Jesus stated “to go into the world and proclaim the Gospel to all creation.” This is in hopes that all creation will come to accept and be redeemed by the precious blood of Jesus Christ and be ready for His second coming. As a curator of the Gospel message we must remain true to the original doctrine handed down from Christ and throughout the generations.

The Gospel message is as read in John 3:16, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” Placing your faith in the Cross of Christ for redemption and leading a life led by the Holy Spirit in submission to YAH the Father. This message is not to be tainted by new age beliefs or watered down to persuade the world to receive, but preached unapologetically to the masses for repentance.

As we are led to spread the Gospel message, pray first that the message being shared is pure first as if being spoken from the mouth of Jesus and true to the Holy Bible. Being kept in its purest form like the items curated in the holiest museum, Shalom.

Scripture Study- Ephesians 5:27, “that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.”

24 Oct

Ephesians 5:27 speaks of the Church which represents us as followers of Jesus . Upon the Lord’s return He is looking for those without spot or blemish. You may ask yourself how can we presented unto Jesus while still in sinful flesh and still having the desire to sin? This made possible only by one placing their faith in Him for salvation.

While we are in no way holy, Jesus is! Having lived a just and sinless life (Hebrews 4:15). Without spot nor blemish does not speak of us, but of Him. Christ is returning for those who clings to the Cross and Him for their salvation. Have you been made clean by accepting the Lord and Saving Jesus Christ?

I pray that everyone that has ears to hear will so at the end of this age we can be presented unto Him in Jesus perfect nature, Shalom…

Scripture Study- 1 Corinthians 15:55-57

8 Oct


1 Corinthians 15:55-57, “O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

1 Corinthians 15:55-57, has the Apostle Paul looking forward to the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ. “O death, where is thy sting,” is Paul proclaiming his and every Christian victory over death, through Jesus’ sacrifice. The Lord Jesus Christ is important to our victory over death because He has defeated it. John 11:25 states, “Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live,” meaning an earthly death is not final.

Jesus Christ the son of The Most High, lived a sinless life (1 Peter 2:22) and presented the only suitable sacrifice for the sin of mankind (Romans 6:23) which the law could not. After His death, burial and resurrection 2 Timothy 1:10 reads, “but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who has abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.”

1 Corinthians 15:55-57 is a proclamation to live boldly for Him. Even if we do die a natural death before His second coming, we still live with Him. John 14:19, “A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also,” Shalom…

Escape The World Now…

29 Sep

Luke 21:36, “Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”

Are you discerning the times? This is a constant need for all believers in Jesus Christ. While we are in the daily grind of working to provide a living for our families, be watchful. This world is on a steady economic, moral and spiritual decline. Each day more and more news of wars, civil unrest and crime is being reported with the worst still yet to come. Christ asks all of His followers to be mindful of the times and coming tribulations and find refuge at the cross.

No political official will bring peace but only one who is peace in our Lord Jesus Christ! Isaiah 9:6, “For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” Only through our faith in Him and sacrifice as the Son of YAH (John 3:16) can we escape this world and the clutches of sin and death.

Are you ready to escape this world? Then pray this out loud,”Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior. In Your Name, Amen Shalom…

Satan’s Economy

19 Sep

Revelations 13:16-17, “And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.”

The waning world economy, food shortages and under paying jobs can be seen as a sign of the end times. This world’s economic system is run and maintained by the world’s elite driven by profit and greed. Manipulating or giving the perception of troublesome times. This is the same deception the Antichrist will do in order for millions of people to receive his mark in order to live (See “The Mysterious Mark of The Beast Revealed, under the “End Times Prophecy tab).

A bad economic system is not from YAH. Giving us everything that we need in Him, 2 Corinthians 9 verse 8 reads, “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things,may have an abundance for every good work.” These hectic fluctuations in economic prosperity are a direct sign as to how Satan can control the population into receiving His false Christ.

I pray the Holy Spirit will guide us into prosperity so that we have the means to resist. Investing in inflation hedges (items that maintain value in hard economic times). Remember no matter the World’s system, Yah will always supply our needs (Philippians 4:19) Shalom

Why The World Needs Jesus…

16 Sep

John 3:17, “For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”

While Christian believers know why they are in need of a savior for the remission of sin (Acts 2:38) and to escape death (Psalms 68 verse 20). The natural world we live in still thrives in a fallen state. A state of war, corruption, murder and crime. Jesus Christ is the cure for all its ailments. Even when there is peace in our lives somewhere, sin is operating in abundance. The current world system still operates under satanic persuasion bringing about sin and death.

While we cannot change the world overnight. Whenever and wherever we must be ready to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the unsaved, letting the Holy Spirit work to change everyone from the perishable to the to the imperishable. 1 Corinthians 9:25, “And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.”

Saving nonbelievers from the corruption of the world, is a daunting task. However, we are backed by love and the precious blood of Jesus to do exactly just that, Shalom.
