The Widow and the Judge

 Jesus is found over twenty times in the Gospels praying or teaching about prayer. This one from Luke 18: 1-5...We all know this story of the widow and the judge. It begins 'that men always ought to pray and not lose heart' ... The lessons to learn from this scripture... Number 1: JUST DO IT ...We "ought to pray" We have to just do it. Put it into practice. We learn by doing! Number 2: PRAY ALWAYS... It's correct to pray "always"- at all times; for all things; and in any situation. Prayer opens the door for positive spiritual influence and results! Number 3: LEGAL DEMANDS... Praying is like a lawyer making legal demands before a judge. God is a good judge. The picture of a judge who "doesn't care" is to encourage us to make strong demands, NOT that God is uncaring! Number 4: OVERCOME EVIL... There is conscious evil in the world. We have to overcome our "adversary" during prayer. There is demonic resistance to our prayers. We pray

NOW FAITH

 Hebrews 11:1 states this "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Everything in the spirit world is spiritual substance. It is real! Believing is not faith, faith is not believing. They work together...Believing writes the check, faith cashes it! Believing is a noun. Faith is a verb and a verb is an act! Romans 10:9-10 refers to believing in your heart and confessing with your mouth. With the heart a man believes. When you believe in your heart you must act upon it for it to become faith. Believing is a silent force, but faith is a vocal expression of what you believe! The Faith Dimension is the language of the spirit! Faith is what sets all other spiritual laws in motion! Faith gives hope substance! Faith calls it done...NOW!          

TIMELY WORD

 We are NOT in a season to hide, to be silent, to run away or to put off what you are supposed to be doing! This IS a season to step up and into ALL Yehweh has called you to be and ALL He has called you do! We cannot have a plan "B" or a back up plan. We need to be "ALL IN". As we move forward we can't focus on what other people are saying and doing or we will miss what Yehweh is saying and doing! I feel a profound release of Spirit of the Fear of the Lord in this season. I sense the angel Winds of Change is blowing change into our atmospheres. I feel what worked before won't work now... we want to jump into the change, NOW. Don't remain silent, release and declare the Word of the Lord that is in you! Breakthrough and restoration awaits the bold and courageous! ......Read Isaiah 54:11-17.... It is time!

THE KING OF KINGS

 The King of the Kingdom of Heaven dwells in each follower of Yeshua. May His Kingdom come and His will be done on earth as it is in heaven. We pray that Yeshua, the King of Kings, son of the most high God, come and bring His Kingdom so that peace and justice will reign. "For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of rightousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit." (Romans 14:17) That is what is missing from the hearts of man throughout the earth. That's what mankind really yearns for earthly kingdoms to provide. We need to come together in agreement as we pray for our government to come in accordance with Paul's instructions in 1 Timothy 2:1-2, "...I'm writing to encourage you pray with gratitude to God. Pray for all men with all forms of prayers and requests as you intercede with intense passion. And pray for every political leader and representative, so we would be able to live tranquil, undisturbed lives, as we worship the awe-insp

PRAYER BRINGS US BACK HOME

 "PRAYER"                                                                                                                                                        "So Jesus taught them this prayer; Our heavenly Father, may the glory of your name be the center on which our life turns. May your Holy Spirit come upon us and cleanse us. Manifest your kingdom on earth. And give us our needed bread for the coming day." Luke 11:2-3. TPT. When we focus on ourselves, our needs, our rights,our desires and plans, life becomes a prison of loneliness, sadness and emptiness. Prayer removes us from this prison and reminds us of God's healing, liberating and saving action in our lives. It reminds us of what He did for us to pave our way to life and freedom. PRAYER BRINGS US BACK HOME. Let's all be people of prayer, prayer warriors, close to God and living out His kingdom! Amen.                                

DEATH IN THE GARDEN

 SCRIPTURE REFERENCE: Luke 22: 39-46 and Matthew 26: 36-43....While reading these scripture passages, my thoughts turned to what I was taught in Sunday School when I was a child. My understanding about what happened with Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane when He asked the Father to take the "cup of suffering" from Him, I believed Jesus was asking for the cross sacrifice to be taken away. But on closer examination Jesus was actually asking not to die in the garden so that He could fulfill His destiny on the cross! Jesus realized that the blood that dripped in the garden would not redeem. The answered prayer in the garden fulfilled ALL that was written of Him. This made Jesus the perfect redemption! He filled the letter of the law and the prophetic of Him carrying the cross to His physical death. God answered Jesus' prayer in the garden so He could be our sacrifice for sin on the cross! It truly is a perfect redemption! 

HANUKKAH --RENEWAL and REDEDICATION

 One reason, we as believers, need to celebrate Hanukkah is that Yeshuah celebrated it. The word Hanukkah means dedication and its observance is in December. John 10:22-23 KJV "And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter. And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch." Hanukkah celebrates the miracle of the oil lasting eight days while new oil was being prepared during the rededication the Maccabees secured. Christians can light the Hanukkah menora to celebrate the miracle of new birth displaying the light for all to see. Just like Jesus told the pharisees to examine the works He does and see if they are from the Father, we too need to do the good works the Father gives us to do. Matthew 5:16 says "Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in Heaven." As we honor Hanukkah we are saying Jesus IS the Light of the World!!!
