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…

Never Perfect, Always Progressing…

26 Sep

Philippians 3:13-14, “Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”

One goal that I sometimes lose sight of is my daily progression in the spirit. Asking myself, “How can I be better for the Lord today than what I was yesterday,” and not remain stagnant as I know YAH has something new for me today. Whether this progression comes from daily reading, prayer or meditation on the Most High, the Lord has a new prize for us today.

While we are made whole the day we accept Jesus (Colossians 2:10), we need to align our flesh to His will and present our physical bodies to Him in this natural world. The Apostle Paul alludes to the old Him as the main protagonist in His spiritual battle. As the need to put away our old ways of thinking and acting in order to reflect the totality of Jesus Christ.

Never perfect but always progressing towards the high calling of YAH, is a dire need for all Disciples of Christ. Striving each day to reach the perfection that is only in Christ, 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

Scripture Study- Romans 5:8-9

11 Sep

Scripture Study- Romans 5:8-9, “ But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.”

Romans 5:8-9 is a proclamation of the enduring love YAH has for His children. While we were dead in our sin, He sent Jesus to die for us. In essence, the Most High loved us even when we did’nt love ourselves. YAH looked past our sinful acts and saw the goodness in everyone, granting us grace and mercy.

In verse 9, the scripture tell us that even more love and blessings will come forth once we are redeemed by Jesus Christ. It’s a testimony to never give up on anyone, and trust that the blood of Christ can justify everyone, Shalom.

The Rebellious Spirit…

5 Sep

Isaiah 30:1, “Woe to the rebellious children,” says the Lord, “Who take counsel, but not of Me,And who devise plans, but not of My Spirit, That they may add sin to sin.”

The current assessment of today’s society, is that everyone is seeking a form of godliness without Jesus Christ. While the Gospel message has been heard, many still look for a alternative salvation. This is due to the Gospel message not linning up with their current lifestyle or the current social climate. This turning away, leads to them rebelling away from YAH’s son Jesus Christ.

These alternate methods for salvation can be new world religions, spirituality or secular morality. While these alternatives can satisfy for the moment they ultimately will fail in the end. John 14:6 states, “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” This is due to His bloodshed and perfect sacrifice for our sins. 

No other religion, new world belief can make this claim other than Christianity! While the scriptures do not align with the worlds system, the Cross is the only way to overcome its hardships. John 16:33, These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

Though the Gospel message wars against our flesh. Trust the Holy Spirit to guide us into understanding for the salvation of our souls, and do not rebel against the love of Christ, Shalom…

We Never Would Have Made It Without Him…

3 Sep

Psalm 94:17, “Unless the Lord had been my help, My soul would soon have settled in silence.”

I am forever grateful for the Lord Jesus Christ, who sustains me in all my troubles. It’s truly comforting knowing that He will never leave or forsake me (Hebrews 13:5) seeing me through this life and on unto YAH’s glory! While trials will always effect believers know that His blood sustains us.

John 16:33 reads, “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” This means that every storm only has so much rain, the darkness of night will eventually flee in the light.

This natural world has been overcome by the bloodshed of Christ, and eternity belongs to His glory! Will you endure, yes! Because Jesus made the way (John 3:16) Shalom…

When YAH Removes Friendships….

29 Aug

Genesis 13:8, So Abram said to Lot, “Please let there be no strife between you and me, and between my herdsmen and your herdsmen; for we are brethren. Is not the whole land before you? Please separate from me. If you takethe left, then I will go to the right; or, if you go to the right, then I will go to the left.”

Their will come times, when we will need to be removed from loved ones in order to spiritually grow. While we  all have the same goal of spending eternity with Jesus Christ, every man and woman will have their own separate journey. At times YAH will remove those not based on anything corrupting our spirit but more for our physical prosperity.

Abraham and Lot started their journey together but separated, having to do what was best for their flocks and herds. While this parting of ways was cordial many times YAH will divide us from others for our own spiritual growth.  Moreso the majority of time will be for our spiritual edification. 

2 Corinthians 6:17, states “Therefore go out from their midst, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch no unclean thing; then I will welcome you.” Romans 16:17 also reads, “I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them.”I know that losing contact with close friends can be painful.

We must always trust the Holy Spirit, and look for the reasoning behind their absence. Were they hindering you? Or did they receive a deeper relationship with Jesus in their absence? Know that ultimately all things in this world will pass away (1 John 2:17) us included but Jesus Christ is forever, Shalom…

Christ Will Never Leave You!

23 Aug

John 6:37, “All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away.“

No one is a child of God by their own means, they are called by YAH himself. This calling may come through suddenly becoming spiritually awaken, hearing the word from a friend or through hardships. The realization of the need of YAH in your life shows that He cares, and has a bigger plan for your life.

Importantly, the bridge to the Most High is through his son, The Lord Jesus Christ. Who through His bloodshed made it possible for the world to know YAH. Hebrews 4:16, reads “Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”

Lastly, John 6:37 proclaims that whomever knows Jesus Christ, that He will never drive them away. Even when we feel that YAH has forgotten us, the Most High is still their based on our acceptance of Christ sacrifice. YAH calls us unto His Son and Christ never lets us go, Shalom…

Praying By The Blood of Jesus…

8 Aug

Revelation 12:11, “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.”

All things were made possible by the Blood of Jesus Christ. While the Holy Bible is a wealth of knowledge on a host of topics and issues, the sacrifice of Christ is the most significant! The blood is the price paid for the wages of sin that no man or woman could ever pay.

We today as believers operate under this protection, from the trials and tribulations of this world. The Lord Jesus has died and paid the price for us to overcome this sinful world. I plead the blood of Jesus for protection over my finances, health, family, and job. In the the end the Blood of Jesus will even erase the touch of death. 

1 Corinthians 15:54, “So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory,” Shalom…

We All Come Back from Trials and Tribulations.

13 Jun

1 Peter 5:10, “But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.”

One thing for certain the Bible tells us is that after every trial, we will make it back unto YAH’s glory. For every time we fall short the scripture says we will get back up, even better than before. This is the awesomeness of the Cross of Jesus Christ. The Lord died so grace and the power of the Holy Spirit can abound. 

No one will ever fall so far away from His presence, to where as if we repent He will not forgive us. Jeremiah 29 13-14 reads, “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.And I will be found of you, saith the Lord: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith the Lord; and I will bring you again into the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive.

We all comeback from the trials of this world and even death, John 11:25 states “Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.” No matter how low we may during our time here on Earth know that we have a Heavenly Father cheering for us to make it through. Giving us all the tools we need in the finished work of His son Jesus Christ, Shalom…
