You bet I did!  I did it! I find it hard to believe, 40 days of peanuts and wonderful nuggets to last a lifetime!  It was questionable at times, especially when the smell of food surrounded me, but the urgency of the delicate situation that surrounds our nation and the world nations always stood in front of me.  I chose to keep fighting for the unborn; the trafficked; the children in demonically oppressed education systems; my brothers and sisters in the Faith, all over the world, who are being oppressed and tortured for acknowledging and worshipping YHWH; the weak; the demoralized; the victims of an unjust department of justice; Israel's protection, etc.  Right-ruling is better than food and life. 

Let  me say this, however.  The book of Isaiah in the Bible makes it very clear what YHWH says concerning fasting. 

These are His words:

Is not this the fast that I choose:
to loose the bonds of wickedness,
to undo the straps of the yoke,
to let the oppressed go free,
and to break every yoke?
Is it not to share your bread with the hungry
and bring the homeless poor into your house;
when you see the naked, to cover him,
and not to hide yourself from your own flesh?
Then shall your light break forth like the dawn,
and your healing shall spring up speedily;
your righteousness shall go before you;
the glory of the LORD shall be your rear guard.
Then you shall call, and the LORD will answer;
you shall cry, and he will say, ‘Here I am.’
If you take away the yoke from your midst,
the pointing of the finger, and speaking wickedness,
if you pour yourself out for the hungry
and satisfy the desire of the afflicted,
then shall your light rise in the darkness
and your gloom be as the noonday.
And the LORD will guide you continually
and satisfy your desire in scorched places
and make your bones strong;
and you shall be like a watered garden,
like a spring of water,
whose waters do not fail.

♡

Oh, may His justice reign down like a flood from heaven, and cleanse this earth in His Truth, His Glory, His magnificent presence as King of all kings and LORD of all lords.  Let the call of our hearts be:

Even so, Lord Jesus/Yeshua, come!!

Maranatha!

... To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood  and made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. Even so. Amen.

The End

Oh NO!

THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING!

This is Your Savior! 

 Do we really know who our Savior is?

  He is NOT a children's storybook tale.

  He is the bruised and scorned, the pierced and scourged. 

He is the Light of the world!

  He is the one forsaken and mocked by men, and yet He raised no fist to His Father.

  He is the One and Only Truth.

  He is the lifeblood flowing throughout the veins and arteries of the world.

  He is the slaughtered Lamb, slain from before the foundation of the world!  Ruminate on THAT concept.

Yeshua or the Law? 

 https://www.biblestudytools.com/esv/galatians/3.html

♡

Galatians 3:24-29

So then, the law was our guardian until Christ came, in order that we might be justified by faith.  But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian,  for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith.  For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.  There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.  And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise.

 ♡

Our Father in heaven, I ask for Your wisdom to discern Truth concerning the Law (Torah) and how that first covenant applies to Gentile followers of Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in the renewed covenant, cut through the cutting down of Your beloved Son.  Impart to us Your wisdom in Galatians 3, that we can fully understand what it is we must be certain of and place our hope in.  You hold all Truth within Your almighty right to do so.  You are the author of the Torah, and the completeness of the Lamb.  Untangle this often entangled snare of mind that both the Jews and the Gentiles alike find ourselves struggling in.  Free us to walk, not as slaves, but as redeemed through the purchase by blood.  What a beautiful mystery You are, my King.  My mind cannot hold the thoughts of You.  They are too many. 

Thank you,

Kinsman Redeemer.  

♡ 

 Thank You, Father in heaven. 

Heaven .. just to whisper the word brings hope and comfort. 

Thank You.

Thank You for providing those of us who have been enslaved to this world (which is all of us)  the key to eternal freedom. 

Thank you for Yeshua,

Your only beloved Son.

Through His great sacrifice, laying His own sacred life down for each one of us,  we have been set free from the bondage of sin, which leads to eternal separation from You.  

Be glorified forever, oh LORD!

Because of YOU, and ONLY You,

WE LIVE!!!

The Wonderful Implications of God Being Our “Abba Father”

 https://www.biblestudytools.com/bible-study/topical-studies/the-wonderful-implications-of-god-being-our-abba-father.html

♡

 “Can a woman forget her nursing child,
    that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb?
Even these may forget,
    yet I will not forget you.
Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands;
    your walls are continually before me.

  Isaiah 49:15-16

 “For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, ‘Abba, Father.’” 

Romans 8:15

There is no greater love than our Abba Jehovah.  We can search the eyes of those we encounter, watching and perhaps waiting for a flutter or spark or word that might appear to be what we have conjured up in our minds to be love. We might even find some wonderful attributes hiding behind some of those eyes, but what we find will be merely veneer. The scripture tells us that God is love.  Most of us (if not all) will experience  some type of insecurity in the love of a parent, sibling, child, spouse, friend etc.  Every one of these will fail us, because they have not been perfected in love. We must abide in Him and Him in us in order for His love to be perfected in us. This is an ongoing process.  In all of our uncertainties, we can be absolutely certain about this One truth; God's love for us is unfailing.  He cannot be anything else than perfect love.  It is impossible for Him to dwell in or with darkness.  He dwells in unapproachable light! 

He is LOVE!

Spirit of Truth, hasten this petition to the throne of Almighty YHWH - YHWH, my Elohim.

"YHWH, my breath, my life:  my soul has come to a place of near paralysis of thought before you. Day and night I have sought you. You know that, my King. I have cowered before you in shame, and stood boldly before you in petition. Where are you? Why do you hold back your mighty arm of rescue that you promise over and over to extend?

 The children, YHWH, you know the tender place in my heart that they occupy,  precious, precious innocence. They don't have time to wait. Every second is a literal life-changing monument in their lives. From the wee ones in the womb, to the children in schools under the administration of demons embodied in flesh, evil prevails against them.

Willing participants  have turned themselves over to  nefarious evil, accelerating its devious goals, numbing their soul while yet there is light within them. Evil has increased with such fortitude that it is now out of the control of those of us who have sat back and done absolutely nothing but complain and grumble and dialogue about it on our phones and computers, in our social networks and small groups. We have allowed progressive thought to morph into flesh, and now we (especially the children) are suffering the consequences.

Those of us who call ourselves Christians, or the body of your Son (along with conservative leaders in our local municipalities, states, governments and nations)  sit on our hands in our mandated corners, dunce caps rising up from our little masked bobble-headed faces. Snotty noses pressed against a chalk circle on a blank wall - we sit, while just beyond the white-board dictates, a small army of fearless voices can be heard. Having stampeded the graveyards of lies and death, they fiercely battle a wicked agenda baptized in a culture of death.  I would have never imagined seeing this atrocity in my lifetime. Unbelievable!!

Is it too late, my Sovereign? Has the screen door slammed behind us?

The many of us who have gathered here before you, during these 40 days of prayer with fasting, are in reality a minute few. But we have gathered because we can 'finally' see that the day is late; the hour of total dismantling of holy structure has fallen upon us. The angel of death is passing over us, even now, while we hastily gather what is left of our life-sustaining "stuff",  marking our door posts in the blood of Truth while He still remains amongst us.

Have we waited too late?

While we nit-pick details of which political 'human' can save our nations and world, we are waxing and buffing our idols of man until we are blinding our eyes from the Truth!

 No human can save us. We are fighting demons of darkness. One man cannot save us from this demonic swarm.

You alone can save us, oh Jehovah Tsaba'oth-our commander of Hosts! 

Jehovah Makeh-One who smites!

Jehovah Chereb-the glorious sword!

Jehovah Adon Kol Ha'arets-over all the earth!

We know the end of the story, and we know that when the story described in the book of  Revelations of the Bible ends, this is just the beginning.  You will close one book and open up another. Where we stand presently, in your story, we just cannot help how we feel right now. We must raise our petitions before you on behalf of the innocent, crying out to you in repentance and grieving for what we have and have not done to provoke this maddening chill that has fallen upon our nation's defenseless, weak and voiceless.

We purpose in our hearts to bare witness that You are a God of Justice, and You WILL strike the sword of the enemy with the Word of Your mouth. You do this because you know that:

Justice is turned back, and righteousness stands far away; for truth has stumbled in the public squares, and uprightness cannot enter.  Isaiah 59:14

Show mercy with compassion on us, oh Lord. Remember that we are but dust.

In the name, the powerful name of Truth, Yeshua Ha' Mashiach, Your beloved Son, I seal this petition. Amen."

 Jeremiah 23:5-6

“The days are coming,” declares the Lord,
    “when I will raise up for David a righteous Branch,
a King who will reign wisely
    and do what is just and right in the land.
 In his days Judah will be saved
    and Israel will live in safety.
This is the name by which he will be called:
    The Lord Our Righteous Savior.

 Our Righteousness, Jesus Christ/Yeshua Ha'Mashiach has already won the war raging against all believers and the world.  He has conquered the enemy with the Blood of the Lamb and the power of the WORD, which is Truth.

He is the Lamb!

He is the WORD!

Ephesians 6:13

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Psalm 91:2

I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress,
My God, in whom I trust!”

Three Kings in One

 Spirit of Truth

Jesus/Yeshua

He walked through walls, appeared and disappeared, raised His kingly self from the grave, healed the sick, turned water into wine, spoke to the winds and waves and they obeyed, cast out demons, created renewed limbs on a physical body, and raided the tomb of Lazarus by calling him out of his sleep.  These were just a few of the amazing wonders Yeshua performed.  More than all of these, He said that everything He did, we too could do.  In case you just missed that, I will repeat it.  EVERYTHING Yeshua did, we can do "if" (that "if" factor again) we have the faith.  

YHWH created EVERYTHING visible and invisible through His only beloved Son, Yeshua. 

What about quantum mechanics?

Yep, Yeshua created everything visible and invisible.

I will cut to the chase.  He created the most complex of human theories (hypothesis) in the universe.  The laws of physics? Yep.  String theory? Yep. Quantum tunneling? Yep.  Atoms, particles, molecules are His creation.  How do we think He walked through walls?  He was in every form, man.  Could it be that He used these complexities of understanding to finish what He came to earth to do?  And He said that we can do that too.  Oh, for the faith of a grain of mustard seed.

Rapture?  Well, perhaps His power over electromagnetic energy and  atom splitting etc. will be our means of transformation and transportation in the (what I like to call) "great twinkling".

Yeshua created everything from the tiniest of particles, to the greatest of the balls of fire suspended in the heavens above and below us.  Whether we are suspended in the universe on a giant molecular net, or free-floating in spinning motion connected to an invisible tether of musical molecular strings, we exist, because He Is! 

He is the Great

I AM THAT I AM

How great, how great, how great is our God!

Can you tell I just love this stuff! 

(maybe it's the peanuts) 

One more, from a secular scientific physics  perspective, (but we know who created all of this) with pics/vids from the newest telescope, the James Webb Space Telescope 

Spectacular!  Seriously, why do we worry about anything, after being given a glimpse into the chambers of the heavens.

Praise to our Jehovah Ha'Melek!

Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war.  His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are many diadems, and he has a name written that no one knows but himself.  He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is The Word of God.  And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses.  From his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty.  On his robe and on his thigh he has a name written,

 King of kings and Lord of lords.

Revelations 19:11-16

Who is this King?

How Old Is The Earth? 

 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.

Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.

There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.

Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun.

Psalm 19:1-4

"Mighty in battle, strong to save."

God is Fighting For You in Battles You Don't Even Know About

The United States Army Field Band sings The Battle Hymn of the Republic

In honor of my father and brother

and the men and women who have served and continue to serve the United States of America and her citizens, in times of peace and in times of war.

Thank you

Jehovah Gibbor, The Strong and Mighty One.

 Just how does this One use His might and great power?

Is it to slay dragons and fight giants?

Is it to rescue maidens and triumph over the riches of kings?

No

This One patiently waits and watches for His children to return to Him.

He runs to the defeated wayward son and daughter, embracing them with a lovingkindness that He alone is capable of giving.

This Strong and Mighty One washes the feet of the broken, weary, love starved and battle scarred.

His might and power turn the hearts of the children back to their Father.

His compassion is matchless.

His mercy knows no end.

And then, when He is ready, His Sovereign and triumphant voice shatters the silence of the heavens ..

and He rides.

He rides for the forgotten, the hopeful, the faithful, the slain.

He rides for the hopeless, the orphaned, the widowed, the poor.

He rides for the innocent, the prudent, the pure.

He rides for bruised knees,  pierced hearts, and tear stained faces.

With fiery passion burning in His Holy eyes, He rides into battle to lay claim to His beloved bride.

This is Jehovah Gibbor!

This is the Strong and Mighty One!

This says it all.

Matthew 18:12-14

  “If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them wanders away, what will he do? Won’t he leave the ninety-nine others on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost? And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he will rejoice over it more than over the ninety-nine that didn’t wander away! In the same way, it is not my heavenly Father’s will that even one of these little ones should perish."

Mark 5:1-20

The LORD is my Light and my Salvation 

 How does the Bride of Christ prepare to meet her Groom?

Watch, pray, listen, meditate on Scripture and keep your wedding gown spotless from the world's stains.

Repent and turn away from the lusts of the flesh. Cast all idols away, forever, and serve the One True God, YHWH Elohim, until your last breath.

Walk in the Spirit of Truth. 

When the door shuts, those who were not truly His Bride suddenly become unknown.

  "Behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work."

Revelation 22:12

He has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of His servant David. Luke 1:69

♡

We have been given a miraculous gift that I feel quite certain most of us take for granted.  We have been given an historical account of the beginning of all of creation, and our creator's interactions with our ancestors, all the way back to the first Adam.  We find this and more in the first five books of the Torah, or First Covenant (Old Testament) of the Bible. 

There is nothing "old" about this gift.  It is new every morning!

Seriously, this is quite impressive and exciting, and Yeshua (Jesus) is in every chapter.  As long as we have breath, we will bless Him at all times.  In every situation, His praise will continually be in our mouth.

Our living Torah

Yeshua Ha'Mashiach

 ♡

The Bible Project team have done a great job outlining the Torah for us.  I can hardly imagine the hours and hours they pour into this project.  Check out more of their work!  Amazing!

 And in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written, “The Deliverer will come from Zion, he will banish ungodliness from Jacob” 

Romans 11: 26

 In order to understand the jewish role within christianity today, we must discern christianity's role in anti-semitism.  Recognizing this, the church must take full responsibility and unite in a true and sincere act of repentance for its actions that have resulted in the enduring hatred the world has shown for Israel and the Jewish people.  

We cannot heal the past horrors of anti-semitism,  but we can preserve its ugly history for the generations to come, in hopes that we never repeat these atrocious acts again.

Never again.

Forgive us, Father YHWH.  Heal the wounds of Your chosen people scattered all over the world.  Heal them of the atrocities committed against them by those calling themselves the "church" of Jesus Christ, both past and present; preserve their inheritance forever.

The Jewish nation does not see it right now, but their Deliverer is soon on the way.  They will look on His scars, and FINALLY,  with unveiled eyes the children of our ancient ones will behold their Mashiach.

MARANATHA!
