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…

Precept Upon Precept of His Word…

11 Jun

Isaiah 28:9-11, “Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little: For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.”

To learn from the Most High means to be a scholar of His word. The Holy Bible is more than just stories and scriptures to be read but moreso studied for in depth meaning. Hebrews 4:12 defines the Lord’s word as living, as in sentient. Able to perceive your desires and meet your needs. In every sentence is a ministering spirit that will speak to you providing revelation, precept upon precept.


Healing scriptures (Isaiah 53:5) minister to you, once meditated on. Scriptures on anxiety (Proverbs 12:25) minister once read and meditated on. I pray that the sentient life of the holy scriptures impact your life and that we study line upon line and allow His will to be revealed to us, Shalom…

Jesus Wept…

28 May

John 11:35, “Jesus wept.”

Jesus weeping for the recently deceased Lazarus is a testimony to His humanity.  Not only sympathizing with his loved ones, but for the destruction sin has brought into this world. Death was never apart of YAH’s plan for this world and mankind. From the very beginning the Most High was a creator and life bringer. It wasn’t until sin entered in through original sin did this world and us begin to decay spiritually and physically.

Through Jesus sin has been done away with. While we still will age, become sick and pass away we have eternal life spiritually with Him. John 11:25, “Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.” Jesus revealed that our death is like Lazarus mentioned in John 11:4, “When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.“

If we or our loved ones should pass away before the second coming it is not unto eternal death, as we will be with Him. Jesus empathizes with for us in our fallen state, giving us the grace to endure until the end when death is no more. 1 Corinthians 15:26-27, “The last enemy to be destroyed is death. For he “has put everything under his feet.” Now when it says that “everything” has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ.” Shalom.

Jesus Christ, The Glory of YAH Revealed…

24 May

Colossians 2:9-10, “ For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power.”

In Jesus Christ the fullness of the Most High has been fully revealed. In Christ the personification of YAH is revealed to be love. 1 John 4:7 reads, “

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.” That love is then described in John 3:16 , “

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.“ Love is the driving force behind the Most High.

Out of love, Jesus was sent forth to reconcile a lost creation back unto its creator. Once we place our faith in the finished work of the cross, we receive forgiveness for our sins along with grace and mercy. That love gives us the authority to overcome the obstacles of this natural world. 1 Corinthians 13:7, Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.” Shalom..

Beware The Leaven…

16 May

Matthew 16:6, “Then Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.”

The leaven Jesus spoke of is of false teachers, who add to the Gospel message. While the finished  work at the cross is enough to be justified in the eyes of YAH, many still try to add tithing, praying to saints or the old law as well. Romans 10:9 clearly states,”If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”

While this scripture pertains to the Gospel message, it can also be applied to our daily lives in those try to hault our spiritual growth through lies and deceit. Who wish to lead us down the road to self destruction.Stay in the Word of YAH and ask the Holy Spirit to guide you into spiritual and earthly truth. Remember John 10:10, “

The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly,” Shalom…

The Need For Spiritual Water…

18 Apr

John 7:37-38, “On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.”

The human body can function no more than only 3 days without water. It is not a coincidence that Jesus compared the need for water to the need for the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the helper, who will teach us all things pertaining to Jesus Christ (John 14:26). 

The need to study and be around other believers especially in these trying times will strengthen our faith, improving our spiritual endurance. Drinking of the living water of Christ will ensure we are operating in the spirit 2 Peter1:5-8, 

But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.“

In order for fruit to grow, plants require water and that water provides the necessary energy for it to grow. Is your spirit thirsting for water? We all need to stay in His word so that we do not become barren, Shalom.

Casting Your Worries Onto Him…

29 Mar

Philippians 4:6-7, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”


With so much going on in the world today, always trust the Most High with all your cares. While many struggle with raising families, mortgages and health concerns it’s natural to worry. Though it is common to worry about the unknown, it’s important to counter it with the Word of God.
The Holy Bible answers the concern of worrying with prayer. By letting our troubles be known to YAH, who sent His son Jesus to pay the price for our sins. YAH did not save us only to let us lead a life of worry about the things of tomorrow. 

1 Peter 5:7 states, “casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.“Jesus is the answer! Coming to YAH in prayer and with strong faith, will strengthen your spirit and endurance to win the race of every obstacle in your life. Why? It is one of the sole purposes He came into this world! Matthew 11:28-30, 

Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light,” Shalom…

Death Through Adam, Alive In Christ…

26 Mar

1 Corinthians 15:21-22 , “For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.”

One absolute fact is that even though having extraordinary faith in Jesus, we all must die someday. This is due to death being the last thing to be defeated by Jesus at His second coming (1 Corinthians 15:26). 

Our earthly death unfortunately may come at any moment, while we are young or old. This is why the holy scriptures says to be ready to meet the Lord (Matt 24:44). Placing our faith in Jesus saves our soul and spirit but the corruptible body will perish.

Jesus Christ has saved us from a spiritual death, on His second coming those still leaving and dead will be raised incorruptible from death’s touch, Shalom…

The Big Bang and The Resurrection, The Bible’s Two Great Miracles…

3 Mar

Genesis 1:3, “Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.“

Outside of the resurrection of Jesus Christ the Big Bang is one of YAH’s most impressive miracles! The calling of the physical universe into existence from nothing. The Big Bang is astronomers way of explaining how this universe began from a single point and expanded out.

When you think of the idea, nothing can manifest into a physical form from nothing. Space, time, planets and gravity came into existence from nowhere to form perfect harmony for sustaining life. The individual creating the universe also must exist outside of it, as nothing is created from within if nothing existed first.

Once the world fell into sin from the fall, YAH once again said “Let their be light,” and sent Jesus into the world to save us all. John 8:12, “Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” Born of a virgin, perfect in nature and without sin. 

Two miracles, one proven through the scriptures and recorded eyewitness accounts, the other through science and theory. Both pointing to a omnipotent divine creator, willing to invade time and space to create and save His creation, Shalom…

The Great Requirement…

15 Feb

I often wonder how well I am stewarding the gifts of the Holy Spirit. As outlined in 1 Corinthians 12:4-10 they include wisdom, knowledge, faith, healings,miracles, prophecy, discerning of spirits, speaking in tongues and interpretating tongues, as well as being commissioned to spread the Gospel (Matthew 28:19-20.)

All of these gifts carry a heavy responsibility, in sharing with the unsaved world in hopes of winning more to Jesus Christ. Imagine being a paramedic or police officer and refusing to offer assistance to those in need. Spreading the Gospel needs to be looked at in the same way. As the world becomes more and more sinful and blasphemous we need to provide a alternative to worldliness. 

The Gospel of Jesus Christ shouldn’t be withheld from the world once we have received it. First in spreading the message of the cross, then sharing our gifts with the Church. The great requirement much like a first responder is to provide assistance to save lives, but even more so with the Gospel to save them spiritually, Shalom.
