Have You Read His Word Today?

18 May

James 4:8, “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.”

Daily Bible reading is a necessity for all Believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. Reading the Word of YAH recharges our Spirit and strengthens the relationship we have with the Most High. In a sinful world He wishes us to stay close so that we are not lured away into sin so readily available in this world. Studying scripture gives us the opportunity to learn His divine will, understand what the Cross means to humanity and prepare for the end times. Becoming born again is only the first step in the salvation process, studying and showing ourselves (2 Timothy 2:15) approved is a continuing process until our Lord’s return.

Have you read your Bible today? Did we hear the Word of YAH today? We need to ask ourselves this question each day  for strength, edification and guidance from the Most High, Shalom…

Scripture Study- Matthew 6:22-24, “The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

4 May

The words body and eye spoken of in Matthew 6:22-24, are figuratively used to represent your soul (body) and spirit (eye). Thus saying if your Spirit is good then so is your soul. Jesus here is speaking to the sin nature of man and our dire need to know Jesus Christ as our Savior 

Outside of YAH’s will, there is a corrupt spirit and damned soul, that can be so easily controlled by Satan. It is pertinent that every man and woman receive Jesus Christ, and escape the corruption in us and the world.

John 15:7 states, “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you,” Shalom…

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…

Scripture Study- Galatians 13:20, “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.“

28 Mar

The Apostle Paul is addressing in this passage,  his new life in Jesus Christ. A totally redeemed version of himself fully submitted to the will of YAH. The same refers to us, when we repent and accept Jesus into our lives, the death of Jesus is symbolic of our old life and being born again as a new person spiritually with His resurrection. We live now to function as YAH’s conduit here in the Earth, spreading love, truth and the Gospel of Christ.

The new life that we live now was bought with a price (1 Corinthians 6:20), and the high wage could and only can be paid by the finish work of the Cross. We now cling to the Cross in Faith, knowing that Jesus Christ is our Lord and redeemer, Shalom…

Living For Yah In Today’s World…

24 Mar

Romans 12:1-2, I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

How do we stand for Christ today? This question is asked so often in the Christian community with the answer always being the same, to stand on sound Bible doctrine. Though it many seem more anti-Christ agendas are popping up more and more, this is due to the increase in how information can travel today. 

Noah dealt with this same environment in Genesis 6:5, “The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time.” Our Lord  said these days would return in Matthew 24:27, “But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.“

Living for YAH today means to proclaim the truth in the face of lies an adversity. In 2 Timothy 4:2 Apostle Paul wrote, “Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.” In Mark 16:15 we are charged to proclaim the Gospel to the world regardless.

Though persecution will come at times, know that the Lord will provide a way for us. Hebrews 13:5-6, “Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me,” Shalom…

The Heretic Christian…

17 Mar

Galatians 1:8-9, “But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed.”

The Heretic Christian is one of the single most destructive forces in the Church today. Heresy is defined as, “any belief or theory that is strongly at variance with established beliefs or customs, in particular the accepted beliefs of a church or religious organization.” Heretics pick and choose which parts of the Gospel they preach in order to cover their sins or the sins of others to win them to Christ but instead leads them to their destruction.

For example, the once saved, always saved doctrine is heretical as it conflicts with 2 Peter :20-22, “For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.”

Only those who repent are truly saved by the grace of YAH (Ephesians 2:8-9) for when we do sin we can be given mercy (Acts 3:19). The same can be said for homosexuality which is condemned in the Old (Lev 18:22) and New Testaments (Romans 1:27) some condone the sin, in order to save those entrapped by it. 

Whereas heretics turn from the truth we as Disciples of Jesus Christ need to embrace it! John 8:32 reads,“And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” That truth is standing on sound Biblical doctrine as the only way to be saved. 

There is an abundance of false teachings that dilutes the scriptures found in the Holy Bible. We need to be aware of these lies and if needed correct in love and allow the truth to set us free from sin, Shalom…

Serve YAH, Not Man…

8 Mar

Matthew 6:24, “No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other.You cannot serve God and mammon.”

The dire need and eagerness to teach all the Gospel of Jesus Christ, can conflict with our Faith. While we are called to profess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior (Matthew 28:18-20) we can never hold back the full truth when needed in fear of offending some.

I’ve seen many Christian men and women in secular settings tip toe around subjects that the Bible clearly condemns, in order to meet the needs of the unsaved. They present a watered down Gospel that can never truly change an individual in order to be Christlike. They meet the need of man instead that of YAH.
The Gospel is supposed to stir those who hear it  into repentance (Matthew 4:17) to be more like Jesus and not nurture a worldly lifestyle. When asked by whomever, What does the Bible say about fornication, homosexuality, and any other topic we must hold firm to what the Bible has recorded and not say what people want to hear.


We must always choose YAH’s word and not our own to reach the world. Speak firmly but in love of what YAH has ordained and what Jesus affirmed at the Cross. Though we may not win everyone at that moment, seeds can be planted so that one day the revelation of Jesus Christ may manifest within them, Shalom.

Scripture Study- Ezekiel 37:1-6, Valley Of Dry Bones…

2 Feb

Ezekiel 37: 1-6, “The hand of the Lord was on me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” I said, “Sovereign Lord, you alone know.” Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life. I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.”

The valley of dry bones represents the lost Hebrew Israelites who were scattered throughout the world for their non-belief in YAH (Deuteronomy  28:64). The life breathed back into this lost nation represents the Holy Spirit, that in the end times will enter into the Hebrew Israelites upon their acceptance of Jesus Christ. Though punished for their disbelief, YAH will return them along with the Gentiles back into the promised land as we too are now heirs to throne by way of Jesus Christ. Ephesians 3:6, “that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs, of the same body, and partakers of His promise in Christ through the gospel.” No matter the circumstances of our bad decisions, YAH will always look for us to reconcile and return back unto Him. A lost people returning back unto the true and living God, Shalom.
