Intercessors united

To all the faithful intercessors called to pray for our One Nation Under God (Yahweh):

Sharing intercessory downloads we get from Yahweh is an important part of networking to see and facilitate the fulfillment of Yeshua's prayer:  Thy Kingdom Come Thy Will be done.  None of us have the complete picture but we all have a piece and a part to play in the bigger storyline of Yahweh's will for His creation.  

For those who are new to intercession, we wanted to share a commission found and born out of Ezekiel 22:30 hearing the grieving heart of Yahweh for His land and His people. 

Today as I am reading the book of Ezekiel, the Lord has taken me to a very powerful verse and conviction I want to share with my fellow intercessors.  

The Book of Ezekiel deals with the conditions in Israel's religious life, and the idolatry they were practicing even while knowing they were a chosen nation with the command by Yahweh that they "shall have NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME".

I see America as One Nation Under God (Yahweh Elohim) according to the founding principles of our Constitution, yet as a nation based upon Biblical freedoms and rights with responsibilities, we have drifted away from our guiding principle of good godly government of, by and for the people. 

That said, with all the chaos and ungodly rulings and orders eminating out from this administration (and other previous ones), I find symbollic similarities in our nation's behavior toward the One True God of our Divinely inspired origins.

Whether through appeasement or capitulation, to ungodly authorities, the little "g" god of government finds Yahweh's people bowing at that altar and refusing to recognize it as the idolatry that it is.  I even heard a previous first Lady say, "Government takes care of us"!  WHAT?  and further that a certain political candidate for the Presidency will destroy the "government" that takes good care of us".  Lies, all in an attempt to lead us astray from the One from whom all blessings for life and liberty flow.  Yahweh, God over our One Nation under Him. To believe otherwise is "idolatry".   

For those who see America as One Nation Under THE ONE TRUE God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, we have much work to do as intercessors for the land and the people who call our nation home.  

I read the indictment against Israel in Ezekiel's Book of Prophecy.  I hear the grief to Yahweh's heart in Ezekiel 6, and the fact that He left a "remnant" to escape the judgement about to fall on a rebellious nation.

We learn through the study of the OT that Yahweh Elohim is a precedent setting Sovereign.  What He has done or allowed in the past serves as a model for what He can do or what will be repeated in any and all generations.

I pay attention to how Yahweh interacted with Israel through history and find guidance for offering up Divinely enforceable prayers for our nation today.  

In Ezekiel 6:9 we read of Adonai's heartbreak.  For all the many sins of our nation deserving severe penalty, the mercy of Yahweh is always available, for those who like Moses have the ear of our gracious Sovereign Creator God.

We, even more so, have His ear because the Holy Spirit of Yeshua now dwells within us.  He came, gave His life for our rescue, then resurrected to affirm His power over death and captivity by the enemy of our human souls.

We now have the privilege (and responsibility) to fight the battle with Him for our own kind (humanity) against the power of the demonic (supernatural) beings and their evil agenda to destroy those whom our Creator loves. 

Reading the Book of Ezekiel, I find an interesting revelation Yahweh spoke through His Prophet to the people.  After the word of indictment was handed down and reasons for what was about to become the penalty for Israel's violation and betrayal of Yahweh in Ezekiel 22:23-29 comes this "word" in Ezekiel 22:30:

"I sought for a man (woman) among them who could stand in the gap on behalf of the land (and people)" This passage reminds me that in the merciful gracious character of our God, He seeks for those who will stand in the gap for a nation called by His name, yet one that betrays His commands.  Sadly, in the days of Ezekiel we read that "He found none". Let not that happen in America!

His love looks for intercessors to plead for what His heart desires to give us:  MERCY

His ways are mysterious and although He remains as The Judge of all nations and peoples, with every right to execute penalty with or without intercessors, He desires and requires our participation in the execution of His will or the staying of His hand against a people or nation that has betrayed Him.

How about we who understand His love for humanity stand together in the gap for our nation, it's land and it's people.

How about we come to confess all that we see and know grieves His heart and plead for His return to all the places in our culture and society that we (or others) have evicted Him from with depraved agendas? 

How about we encourage each other to turn from any wicked ways where we have acted in appeasement or capitulation to ungodly participation with the worship of foreign gods as we Stand in the Gap for America?  For truly His mercies ARE new every morning, for those who ask.

The Holy Spirit is calling.  Can you hear Him

Spiritual Warfare: The Battle Rages


This morning I dreamed about an Israeli woman being, not just murdered by terrorists, but having her body mutilated.  I am compelled to inquire of the Holy Spirit of Adonai the big "why" question?  Why the mutilation to the dead bodies? 
He spoke to me how the terrorists are actually "demoniacs".  The rage we are dealing with is the hatred of humanity by fallen "angels" and for them, murder of our kind (Yahweh's imagers) is not enough.  They must desecrate our image.  From murder they go to dismemberment and treating human bodies like an animal butchered for meat. I hear Him say, that those who do such things are under the powerful influence of demons and must be taken out to preserve humanity.Then He speaks to how these demoniacs are behind abortion and all that it involves.  They are the same demons who mutilated Yeshua's human body beyond "human" recognition at the cross of Calvary. Point being, the virile hatred of Yahweh's  imagers is manifesting out of possessed “people”.  The devil and his hordes are making this last stand for ultimate power. I’m convinced that Satan doesn’t care many Christians die saved or how many non believers die lost, his goal is to obliterate or neutralize those who might enter the kingdom battle and exercise our Divinely delegated dominion over him.  Since Yeshua (Jesus) came and defeated Satan’s power on the cross, reclaiming for humanity what was surrendered in the garden of our origins, the battle has been to keep us deceived and ignorant of our Divine authority to destroy the devil’s works. This goes beyond having a different world view from someone else.  This goes to the heart of utter evil.  This is a kingdom battle and we cannot minimize or excuse the opposition as just a territorial dispute of a land mass. Dropping bombs from the air in nations at war, is different than mutilating the bodies of your enemy after torturing them through humiliating inhumane acts. We need to get it straight: these demonic forces come not but to rob, kill and destroy US.  Evil hates humanity; those who serve his purposes as much as those who oppose him.Time for a check on who/what is being served by our mindset, perspective and stand on the situations we are called to judge. Good or evil is the choice and always remember the fence belongs to Satan. Regardless of what political side of the aisle you sit, as humans we must stand together against the demons who make war on our own kind.  Pick your battles and fight.  Whether human trafficking, abortion, satanic child sacrifice, with all that goes with it, sexual abuse of the innocent, organ harvesting, transgendering of our birth identity and destruction of our true identity, (God’s immortal image bearers) take your stand and don’t back down.  Appeasement equals defeat!   Evil can and must be defeated, so my beloved friends: “burn the ships” there’s just no turning back in this battle. Now we know and I hope to see you on the battlefield. ☝️✝️⚔️🛡️🔥❤️‍🔥

Asbury Revival

The Holy One calls to me this morning.  So much is happening in the world, it seems like the end is near.  Ancient prophecy is unfolding before our very eyes in real time on the 6:00 news.

The times can be very dark and scary.....or.....the times can be very exciting.  I have heard it said that the same wave that would drown a swimmer, provides a surfer with the ride of his life.

The Holy One presses in on my perspective and takes me to His Word in Acts 2.  By this time the historic record was set, Jesus had come, died, resurrected and ascended.  His visible Presence was no longer with the Disciples.  Gone was His voice, His laughter, His touch, even His stern rebuke which set boundaries to their over zealous flesh and calmed a raging storm.

They had a life experience to draw from, having watched God interact with His creation.  But now they were just ordinary men with an awesome memory and a story to tell.

Jesus lived His earthly life as a man; flesh, blood, emotions and He knew the weaknesses within.  He knew that, in their flesh, not one of them could complete the eternal life or death assignment He had left them with.  All that He came to accomplish associated with the message of our salvation, His sacrifice and the restored relationship between the Creator and the created, would require a strength and power beyond their humanity to convey.

The Holy One whispers to my heart, "Those days for the Disciples are not unlike your days today.  Apart from Me you can do nothing."

The Spirit takes me back to read one of the last commands from Jesus before He ascended into Heaven.  Acts 1:4, "On one occasion while He was eating with them He gave this command, "Do not leave Jerusalem but wait for the gift My Father promised, which you have heard Me speak about.  For John baptized with water but in a few days, you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit".

And in Acts 1:8, when discussing the restoration of Israel, Jesus said, "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by His own authority.  But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria and to the ends of the earth".  Those were His parting words to them and then He was taken up and a cloud hid Him from their sight.

With that very limited description of what was to come, the Disciples went to Jerusalem and waited.  I wonder if some might have been tempted to rush out and share the super-natural event they had just witnessed, by-pass Jerusalem, and go in their own powerful self-sufficiency?

Thankfully they did not.  Thankfully they obeyed the Lord and left us with a completed story of the indwelling Presence of Holiness and passed on a legacy of the power and authority available to all of us who call Jesus our Lord.

I cannot begin to imagine the anticipation of that event we now know as Pentecost.  But I know that I need to experience my own "Pentecost" today.

"The fields are white unto harvest and the laborers are few."  And again, "How can they call on the one they have not believed in?  And how can they believe in the one whom they have not heard?  And how can they hear without someone preaching to them and how can they preach unless they are sent?

Jesus is the One sending.  But.........the task for any believer who calls Him Lord is too much to take on unless Jesus provides us with His authority to operate and His love to share.

We are fortunate to have the written record of the life and times of the Disciples at our fingertips.  We can go to the Bible and read the historical account of what happened on the day of Pentecost but the Disciples had not yet experienced the great event when Jesus told them to go to Jerusalem and wait.

I can't begin to imagine the anticipation over what was about to happen.  What they had already seen was so off-the-chart supernatural and miraculous.  The deaf hear, the blind see, the dead are raised.  They had been able to see, feel, and touch the Savior who was crucified then resurrected.  They ate, drank and shared more of life with the One who died and then came back to them.

And then, wonder of wonders, they watched Him ascend up, off planet earth and into the Heavens. Pentecost came just like the Lord told them.  A day when they received the special "Baptism" different than the water baptism that identified them with Jesus' death, burial and resurrection.  The baptism with the Holy Spirit was the necessary component and power to LIVE the resurrected life and enable them to be His witnesses to the ends of the earth.

The Holy One speaks, "and it's no different today".

I am thankful to know that I need more in order to answer the call of the Lord on my life.  The much more that I need is the very thing Jesus promised to provide more of:  His Holy Spirit.  Odd as it sounds to me, there is great relief in realizing that in and of myself, I can do nothing. 

The power and Presence of the Holy Spirit has been given to every Believer who calls Jesus their Savior.  Yet it is up to each one of us to yield to His Presence and operate in His power. 

The day of Pentecost is a symbol of the Divine Habitation of Holiness in humanity and our intense anticipation  should be in the awe and wonder of what He's going to do next.

Acts 2:17 and Joel 2:

"In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people.  Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions and your old men will dream dreams.  Even on my servants, both men and women I will pour out My Spirit in those days and they will prophesy.  I will show wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke.  The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the great and glorious day of the Lord and everyone who calls on the Name of the Lord will 
be saved."

Every once in a while in our history comes a time of revival where we can see and feel the powerful move of the Holy Spirit that captures the attention of the world.  Most of us believers live and operate in a deeply personal pentecost experience if one at all since, sadly,  few churches teach and operate on and in the power of the Holy Spirit.

What happened in Asbury and other places recently should be the life of the Ekklesia of Yehshua since He told us before He left planet earth, "Even if you do not believe My words, at least believe on the "evidence" of the miracles, signs and wonders" He performed.  But then He said, "Greater things will you do because I am going to My Father in Heaven" and that He would send another comforter Who would enable us to do all that He did. 

We can and should continue to cry out for the Holy Spirit of Christ to be poured out on us who believe so that those who don't can come to the saving knowledge of God's Only Son Who came to save humanity from the dominion of darkness that permiates this earth.         

I don't know about you, but the excitement and anticipation of that is almost killing me.  Come, Holy Spirit and fall afresh on me.  Abba Father, Please bring us the understanding of a modern Pentecost that the revival in Asbury has revealed, and the ongoing role the Holy Spirit plays in our world today!

Weapons Of Our Warfare

 The Holy One calls to me this morning at a time and within the world that seems to be spiralling out of control.  The understanding that we are in a white knuckle battle with dark evil forces comes at first light.

The Holy One takes me to His Word in 2 Corinthians 10:3 as a reminder about the "weapons" of our warfare. I feel His Presence and listen close for His voice:

"Your mind is the battlefield.  The real enemies you face are not flesh and blood but dark spirits who inhabit the unseen realm. Train your mind, control your thoughts and guard you heart and you will defeat the enemy".

As I ponder His exortation to discipline my thoughts, I wonder about the "weapons" He speaks about in His Word?

When I think about Divine weapons we have to go against an unseen enemy, on a mental battlefield, the challenge is obvious. In the midst of the process, the Holy One calls to my mind I Samuel 17:45-47. 

David was facing his Goliath, a physical giant with physical weapons, but when I break down the real enemy he was dealing with, I see that the forces against him were targeting his confidence in his God.  Hurling insults and issuing threats of harm, captivity, and death, evil tried to mentally defeat him before any physical engagement took place. The carnal weapons of the enemy were designed to emphasize his power but fear was the real threat to David's victory. 

As with us, the real battle he was experiencing, past the giant before him, was his understanding of Yahweh, God of Israel and Lord of his heart. 

David was able to see that Goliath's taunts were an assault on the knowledge of Yahweh, and the denial of truth about His power over all foreign gods of the enemy; a real spiritual battle on earth's turf.

David answered the taunts of Goliath,

"You're coming at me with a sword, and a spear, and a javeline, but I am coming at you in the name of Yahweh the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have challenged.  Today Adonai will hand you over to me.  I will attack you and lop your head off and give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the animals in the land.  THEN all the land will know there is a God in Israel and everyone assembled here will know that God does not save by sword or spear for this is Adonai's battle and He will hand you over to us." 

Today we face similar battles and the taunts of impending defeat by an arrogant giant.  Satan is the one hurling his lies and threats of his pseudo power over us against the knowledge of our God, but our weapons are Divine and designed to defeat those of the enemy.

The Divine weapons we fight with are:

Truth, Righteousness, The  Good News of God's love, Trust (Faith) in His plan of victory for us, His Word, as the sword of the spirit and The undefeatable power and presence of the Holy Spirit within (Who keeps us from falling victim to evil's lies). 

The battle looms large as humanity struggles against the lies of evil about things most of us have always taken for granted like gender identity, traditional marriage between a man and a woman, life in the womb. 

Truth has been so distorted by opinions that people can no longer even look at their physical bodies as true eidence that they are either male or female. 

How much longer Yahweh will put up with such conflict in His created world is unknown, but until He moves us out, it's up to us who know Him, to go with Him into battle for the souls of men not yet given over to such depravity of defiance and use the divine wapons He has provided us for our victory in Him.

Enter the Secret Place

 The Holy Spirit calls to me this morning.  Headline news is all abut the advance of evil and the subtle deceitful messaging says there is nothing we, as believers can do about it.

I understand the "spoken" words don't actually say, "Hey, Believer, you can't do anything about it", but the enemy called "the Prince of the power of the air", plants seeds of discouragement and whispers into our ear that we and our Lord are no match for the wicked actors running things in this realm.

Yeshua told us, "Apart from Me, you can do nothing" (John 15:5), yet He also reminds us "With Yahweh nothing will be impossble". (Luke 1:37)

As I follow the lead of the Holy Spirit and ponder the call to prayer, I wonder "how can I know what to ask?  I am reminded of the "model prayer" Yeshua gave His disciples and left the same for us that includes:

They Kingdom come, 

Thy will be done. 

In earth as it is (being done) in Heaven.

I have discovered in all my early morning thoughts and conversations with The Holy One that He is calling me to intimacy and communications that flow with His wisdom, knowledge, understanding, wise counsel, courage, love for Yahweh, and strength to battle with Him against Heaven's antagonists.

As I ponder the Lord's model prayer that He set before His Disciples then, and for us today, I realize in order for me to know His will, I must enter what I have come to know as "the secret place".  Here is where I leave the generic description of prayer, placing what in my human mind I think is a viable resolution to life's challenges and draw close to my Sovereign Creator God in the Person of the Holy Spirit, to see from His perspective the best resolution and His way of bringing it to bear. 

So much of the time, I find I am to quick to give my Heavenly Counselor, a fast-fix blueprint of how I think He should answer rather than seek His wisdom, His way in the process where we both agree that the goal is to bring resolution to the threat, confusion, harm or pain we, or others we know are suffering in the world we have been commissioned to subdue.  

Heaven's best (Thy Kingdom come), and Yahweh's good will (Thy will be done) is the end game, but in truth we do not know what Yahweh knows, so the need for His perspective outweighs any and all of my human opinions of what's best.  Yielding to that requires trust in Yeshua that is primarily found in the secret place especially if His way is delay. 

Being with our Heavenly Father via the Holy Spirit in the secret place is where, I believe, Yeshua our Messiah, got His marching orders and directives that resulted in the supernatural interventions in what we see and identify as miracles; Yahweh doing what only Yahweh can, by overruling the natural limitations we, as humans, have to change what is. 

Going into "the secret place" enables us to see past the object of our prayer assignments and align with the One who knows all things about that person, or situation, even chaotic world events, from beginning to end, and addressing the most pressing needs our petitions should represent for powerful effective answers. 

Your Will, Your way, has become my personal heartfelt prayer in "the secret place" and in the end,  I realize answers to prayer always come when I know what to ask. 

The Holy Spirit is calling.  Can you hear Him?

Importance of Inquiry

It had been said and it’s true, when the Holy scriptures say, King David thought to himself and acted accordingly it was a disaster in his life. HOWEVER, it says when King David “inquired” of Adonai he found victory and success.

Lesson gleaned: if we want answers that represent victory in prayer, we would be well advised to “inquire” of Adonai as to what we need to learn (know) in a given trial and what He wants us to do (how to act) about it.
If we try to sort through the myriad of “principles” to Yahweh’s will, all of which are important and could be our directive, but may not be, then frustration and hopelessness can attack.
If (and when) we inquire of our Sovereign Yahweh who knows the end of everything from the beginning of anything, He is faithful to show us His way for us among all the principles of Holiness. He will convey to us the exact principle that brings victory to our circumstances. It’s a learning curve we are on to understand His ways as we read His word to understand His Will.
This is why I look for “precedents “ in His word that reveal His past acts of intervention in situations similar to the ones I am facing today. Whatever precedent established in human history is a clue to how we need to pray in our day.
It is in prayers of inquiry that the Holy Spirit can lead us to the appropriate “God-principle” and precedents already established to deal with our challenges and through obedience then lead us on the victory.
All of Yeshua’s miracles we can read about were precedents Yahweh established in the Tanak (Old Testament).
Adonai, we pray you draw us into your Heavenly Council where we can inquire to know your ways and then go forth to execute Your Will as your ordained Ekklesia in Yeshua’s Name.

Why the Torah

 Why the Torah?

Yahweh (God's personal Name not just His title) is perfect in His love for His created world and Humanity is His crowning achievement. We are created in His magnificent image. Genesis 1:26-27. We are in every way His immortal image bearers by design.

The revelation of Adonai Elohim, Yahweh, God of all Creation has been progressive over the course of mankind's time on earth. Torah was given to the Chidren of Israel, whom Yahweh defines as His "own" after 400 years of slavery in Egypt where they were influenced and indoctrinated by the belief system of that pagan nation and their gods.
In the Torah (1st 5 books of the Bible), we learn about Yahweh: His character, and what he requires of His people to be in a right relationship with Him. Contrary to their life in bondage and under threats of harm, Israel had to learn how to live like free people with boundaries and reponsibilities that go with freedom. A social structure of order with freedom needed to be established, thus the culture was formed round the One True God: Yahweh.

We learn that sin (rebellion of His Sovereignty) is so grievous to our Creator that the penalty is the ultimate and final death of the individual who violates Holiness. Death can be defined as the relational separation from life and all that life represents as good. Darkness, or absence of light. Death for an immortal soul would be endless darkness in separation from the Creator of life, not just cessation of the physical body as some might assume. Yahweh is perfect love and also perfect in His justice over His created world and, as our free will design allows for and requires the good or evil inclinations of our heart to be chosen and enacted, a penalty/blessing/consequence follows our free will choices.
Genesis 3, Deuteronomy 6,7, & 8.
We learn that humanity follows the evil inclinations of the heart more often than not. We also learn that Yahweh, in the past established a way through which atonement (satisfaction, reparation for an offense or injury) can be achieved or paid back in order for the God-human relationship to be restored in these days upon the earth and thankfully beyond temporal death unto eternity.

I will say it again: Torah, sometmes called the book of the law, actually means "instruction", and it instructs and enables the reader to grasp the dire consequences that sin (violation of Holiness) brings to the life of everyone ever born. But it also enables the reader to grasp the unconditional love that Yahweh has for people who acknowledge Him; people who seek to be restored in relationship with Him, His way.

Thousands of years of animal sacrifice convey the understanding of mercy and grace applied to human failure to meet the conditions of Holiness for the continuation of life. The life is in the blood of Yahweh's physical creatures and the penaly for sin is the shedding of the blood of the offender. Animal sacrifice brought the understanding of a "substitute" sacrifice to atone (pay the price) for our sin.

The flood of Noah stands as a judgement by Yahweh over the fallen earth and humanity, yet the ark speaks mercy. While the flood brought death to all air breathing creatures, Noah found safety in the ark he was told to build before a drop of the rain fell upon the earth.
The culmination of Yahweh's revelation of Himself was made complete when Yeshua entered the earth realm, lived by the Torah, then offered Himself up as the ultimate atonement (sacrificial substitute) for humanity's sin. His Blood shed on the Cross, fulfilled all the Holy requirements for Yahweh to forgive us. Perfect justice was executed on the cross for the sin of all human flesh.

As we accept the atonement offered by the One we have offended, in and by our free will decision, we are restored in righteousness (Christ's not our own) and reconciled back into perfect union with our Creator, Savior, Father, God and the Torah says it all. Yeshua came not to abolish the law but to fulfill it by paying the ultimate penalty Holy Justice demands for all who violate it.

But there is more to the story. The next and last phase of Yahweh's ultimate eternal plan enacted here on earth, was brought to us on the day in the history of man's days we call Pentecost. Pentecost was not a "new" celebration but the anniversary of the event of 1500 years earlier when Torah was given to the Children of Israel at the foot of Mt Sinai and recorded in Acts 2.

The Holy Spirit of Yeshua was sent to "indwell" Yahweh's imagers and the evidence was the tongues of fire visible to those who participated in that great day. The arrival of and indwelling Presence of the Holy Spirit since then, enables humanity to live a Holy acceptable life with Yahweh. Free will is still in operation but the power to live a holy life is now possible like never before. When (not if) we fail, repentance restores us to unity with the Holy One to whom we belong. This is the great mystery of Christ in us, the hope of glory.

Now, as spirit-filled humans, Christians (Yeshua/Jesus followers) live in that covenant relationship like unto an earthly marriage: Two unique individuals in a one flesh relationship. We can have the indwelling Holy God within our individual being. This is His plan since the very beginning but required a long history to unfold and allow for humanity to willingly seek and desire relationship with Him.

So what's next? Our flesh bodies are corrupt and designed to decay and return to the dust of the earth from which it was formed. But what's promised is that our immortal Spirit and soul will gain a glorified body like the resurrected one that Jesus modelled after His death and resurrection. A "glorified" body is quite different, beyond the flesh we now have and that qualifies it as a "different life form", supernatural to our current one.

Following the written descriptions of Yeshua, He was flesh and bone not ghostly.
He stood, walked, ate, was subject to gravity but not constrained by it (His ascension). See Matthew 28, Mark 16, Luke 24, and John 20-21. He appeared and disappeared at will and was or was not recognized by disciples who knew Him before His resurrection.

The next chapter in our never-ending-story is yet to be revealed and experienced. The Bible gives a few clues like the Millenial (1000 year) reign of Yeshua and our role to rule and reign with Him, but how that will look has not been made clear. We can only imagine, but know it will be beyond anythng we can wrap our human minds around.

Yahweh chose a people group known as Israel, to first reveal Himself to and with the Divine directives He provided in the Torah, to influence the rest of humanity toward faith in His existence, His love and His Sovereignty.

The Torah is the ancient revelation of the One True God and the Divine preparation for His eternal plan that includes all who come to trust in Him. Yeshua/Jesus is the human fulfillment of all the Torah revealed as His was the Walking Word of Yahweh dwelling with His Created when He appeared on earth over 2000 years ago. This same Jesus will one day return to the exact place He left this planet and make His dwelling among His Beloveds a permanent reality.

The Holy Spirit is calling. Can you hear Him?




     

Humanity's Dominion

Lately intercession has called me to remember our role as the immortal image bearers of our Majestic Creator God.  The Holy One calls me to ...
