WORSHIP WITH POWER

In Ephesians 5:19-20 (Mirror Bible) Paul is teaching us, especially when we aren't overflowing with blessing and abundance, to get our praise on and worship with power! Verse 19 says to "Speak psalms to one another; burst out in spontaneous celebration songs and spirit inspired resonance. In your heart do not let the music stop; continue to touch the Lord with whispers of worship." verse 20 goes on with this theme, saying "Because you are identified in the name of Jesus Christ, you can afford to always overflow in gratitude to the Father, in spite of everything that happens to you. You are not under circumstances but above circumstances because you are in Him!" We are not grateful FOR everything, but in spite of everything! Even in darkest of times, we must understand this huge power of worship to give our lives meaning and purpose. Worshipping Yehweh even while in despair is a way to defy the adversary and to shout our declaration of value of the good-the best-in life: the LORD! There is no more worthy purpose to praise: no more worthy time for it than NOW!

PATHS LESS TRAVELED

The Lord says, "I will instruct you. I will teach you the way that you should go. I will advise you as My eyes watch over you." (GOD'S WORD translation). This verse promises that whenever we are willing to listen and obey Yehweh and to follow the path He chooses, we will always be able to hear and recognize His voice! It also reminds us that it's always safe to obey His voice, even when the path seems impossible and unattainable. Paths that are less traveled will take us where our destinies come forth, where the supernatural becomes natural!!!

KNOW WHO YOU ARE

In the gospel of John 3:28-30 it says "You yourselves bear me witness, that I said I am not the Christ, but have been sent before Him. He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is fulfilled. He must increase, but I must decrease..." John the Baptist was saying to his disciples that he knew who he was, and he knew his scroll, his destiny. When you know who you are in Yehweh, you never need to fear anyone overthrowing your kingdom destiny, or your ministry! He was identifying himself, not as the bride, but as the best man at the wedding, who stands beside the bridegroom and introduces him to the bride! And he rejoices because all rejoice for a wedding arranged by Pappa! Then as Yeshua increased and he decreased, he knew that his mission was accomplished...He had introduced the Bridegroom from Heaven to the Bride on earth. When you know who you are, what is on your scroll, where you come from and where you are going, you are a true son of God. All creation is waiting for these mature sons of God to come forth...TODAY.HERE..NOW...!

SUMMER TIME

In Matthew 24:32 Jesus said "when the fig tree and all the trees, shoot forth, you know summer is near." I believe Israel is that "fig tree." It shot forth(became a nation)in our own generation! The nation of Israel IS Yehweh's time clock! Watch & pray for Israel! Watch what the nations do and what how the leaders treat Israel. Watch how they turn against her... and then know Yeshua is soon to appear! He will bring in our "summer time!"

MY PRECIOUS JEWEL IS YOU

You are My precious gemstone, cut, shaped, polished, and made perfect, to be a crown of glory in My hand. A royal diadem that will bring honor and glory to Me all through eternity. (paraphrased from Isiah 62:3) You are in a safe place with Me! There is none who can steal you from My safety! I will keep My eyes on you at all times and in all times! I will give you the seven spirits that burn brightly before me to govern and instruct you. So you can mature as a Son and be presented before me in the right time! Why? you ask, It's because I love you with ALL MY HEART! "And they shall be Mine, says the Lord of hosts, in that day when I take up My jewels and I will spare them, as a man spares his own son that serves him". (Malachi 3:17) We are His GEMSTONES, no wonder there is such speculation about the gems from heaven. Satan hates that we are the gemstones from heaven.

LOOKING INTO "THE MIRROR"

"The days of window-shopping is over!In Him every face is unveiled. In gazing with wonder at the blueprint likeness of God displayed in human form, we suddenly realize that we are looking at ourselves! Every feature of His image is mirrored in us! This is the most radical transformation engineered by the Spirit of the Lord; we are led from an inferior mind-set to the revealed endorsement of our authentic identity. Mankind is His glory! 2 Corinthians 3:18 Whatever you worship you become, whatever you focus on you become!If you keep your eyes on Yeshua and follow relentlessly after Him, you begin to look like Him. He takes us from the glory of our flesh to the glory of the manifestation of His life! The expression of His life lived through our life in fullness on earth! As we look into the mirror our image begins to fade as His image comes into focus! From glory to glory!!!

OVERCOMERS ...SEVEN PROMISES

While I believe Yehweh is already judging the nations and those who have fallen away from the faith...His promises are STILL "Yes and Amen" to those who overcome! Now is NOT the time to compromise, not the time for convenience & comfort and a false sense of security and materialism. It is the right time now to overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony! These seven promises are filled with the fullness of GOD! 1. Rev.2:7 "Eat of the tree of life" Paradise and communion are part of this promise! 2. Rev.2:17 "Eat of the hidden manna of the life of God" and receive white stone of acceptance with a new name" also speaks of communion and fellowship! 3.Rev. 2:26 "power over the nations and rule with Yeshua" speaks of rod of iron, authority with consequence! 4.Rev. 3:4 "be clothed in white garments" speaks of purity and unity...we get new clothes! 5. Rev.3:5 "hear the Lord confess their names as His own before Pappa and the angelic realm" speaks of His love and affection for His bride! 6. Rev. 3:21 "sit with Messiah in His throne and manifest the glory forever" again this speaks of fellowship and communion! 7. Rev. 4:1 "I looked, and there was a door open in heaven, And first heard a voice and then saw One sitting on a throne"... If you can hear His voice, you can see His face!!! He wants intimacy and fellowship with us even more than we want intimacy & fellowship with Him! Communion is His idea!!! MUST BE IMPORTANT...Just a thought.
