TO GET THE YAHWEH-KIND OF FAITH (7): KNOW THE AUTHORITY IN THE NAME OF YAHUSHUA

17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Mark 16:17-18 (KJV)

We should know that authority as a reality in our own lives. The authority you have in the Name of Yahushua is just as though some wealthy man gave you the power to use his name in an unlimited capacity. What effect would it have if he gave you a legal document? What if he said to use this legal document in order to supply every one of your needs? What if you could do anything you wanted to do in that man’s name! Well, Yahweh has given us the power of attorney to use the Name of Yahushua. This means we have power in that Name over Satan and all the gates of hell. Yahushua said, “. . . In my name … they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover” (see Mark 16:17,18). Yahushua said, “… whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you” (John 15:16). We have authority to use that Name. The Name of Yahushua carries authority on this earth. It is not a matter of faith, but it is a matter of knowing your legal rights in HaMashiach and taking your rightful place as a son or daughter. It is a matter of taking your place in carrying out Yahushua’s will in the earth. Getting us to cooperate with Yahweh is the biggest problem!

TO GET THE YAHWEH-KIND OF FAITH (5): KNOW THE REALITY OF THE INDWELLING PRESENCE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

TO GET THE YAHWEH-KIND OF FAITH (5): KNOW THE REALITY OF THE INDWELLING PRESENCE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
I John 4:4 (KJV)

Of all the mighty truths connected with redemption, this is the apex: Yahweh Himself, after He recreated us and made us new creatures and made us His own, is actually making our bodies His home! When you are born again, it is more than an experience. The Holy Ghost, the Third Person of the Godhead, a divine Personality, comes to live in you. In fact, the Bible even goes so far as to say that Yahweh Himself is living in you. 2 CORINTHIANS 6:16 says, ‘16 … for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell IN them, and walk IN them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.’ Yahweh no longer dwells in the man-made Holy of Holies. Through the new birth, our bodies have become His temple.

1 CORINTHIANS 6:19, 20 says, ‘19 What? know ye not that YOUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE of the Holy Ghost which is IN you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.’ We need to become “God-inside minded.” In other words, we need to just simply take Yahweh at His Word. We need to believe and act like the Bible is true when it says, “. . . greater is he that is IN you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4)! “He that is in the world” is the god of this world, Satan (2 Corinthians 4:4). But, thank Elohim, He who is in us, the Holy Spirit, the third Person of the Godhead, is greater than he who is in the world! Thank Elohim, Yahweh indwells us as believers, through the Person of the Holy Spirit, today too. Because of the indwelling Presence of the Holy Spirit, it should be a common practice in the Church today for believers to say in every crisis of life, “I am more than a conqueror.” However, the truth is, making positive confessions based on our rights and privileges in HaMashiach is almost an unknown practice in the church world today.

TO GET THE YAHWEH-KIND OF FAITH (4): KNOW THE REALITY OF OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS IN HAMASHIACH

For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
II Corinthians 5:21 (KJV)

This area of righteousness is one of the major arsenals of the devil against the faith of most believer in HaMashiach because they lack the understanding of our righteousness in HaMashiach. Firstly, at new born, you were born righteous because you took after your father. It is same DNA in your father Yahweh that runs in you. Yahweh is righteous and that nature of righteousness is what you were born with (see 1 Peter 1:23; John 1:13). At new born, you are not trying to be righteous, you are born that way. The challenge for most people is that this nature of righteousness is only in your spirit because man is a spirit which has a soul and lives in a body. Your soul/mind was not born again. Your body was not born again. So without educating your mind with the word of Yahweh and disciplining your body, you can never manifest this righteousness practically (see Romans 12:1-2; I Corinthians 9:27). In Yahushua HaMashiach you are perfect, righteous and holy. You are complete in Him (see Colossians 2:10). You must educate your mind and discipline your body to conform to this new nature in your spirit. Sometimes, you may fall short but as soon as that happens, confess your sin and fall back in line with that your nature of righteousness.

HOW DOES FAITH COME?

#WordForTodayDevotional

Thursday July 7, 2022

HOW DOES FAITH COME?

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Romans 10:17 (KJV)

Faith is the gift that the Holy Spirit imparts to your spirit upon hearing the gospel of Yahushua HaMashiach. So faith comes primarily by hearing the Word of HaMashiach. Someone had said that the second hearing in our text is understanding; so that the text could read faith comes by hearing and understanding the word of HaMashiach without doing the text any injustice. It is not anything that you hear that gives you faith; it is hearing the word of HaMashiach. So, you must be careful of what you hear. You are absolutely responsible for what enters your ears or what you see. Some hearing imparts fear. Just as faith comes by hearing the Word of HaMashiach, fear comes by hearing the word of Satan and evil people. So guarding what you hear becomes very paramount.

The hearing that brings faith comes in these ways:
1. Reading the Bible by the help of the Holy Spirit imparts faith. It is understanding that brings faith and it is the Holy Spirit that brings illumination to our spirits. Light from the Bible is what imparts faith in the heart of people. That was the case of Daniel in 9:2, “In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.”
2. Studying the Bible by the help of the Holy Spirit imparts faith. In studying the scripture, you pick a particular topic or character and seek to know as much as the Word says about it. When you are through with a study, your faith is boosted in that area of the knowledge of Yahweh. (see II Timothy 2:15)
3. Meditating on the Word of Yahweh by the help of the Holy Spirit imparts faith. To meditate is to mutter, to speak to yourself the word of Yahweh. Meditation is confessing the word to yourself loudly or silently. (see Joshua 1:8)
4. Hearing the testimonies of the acts of Yahweh imparts faith. Testimonies bring faith in Yahweh into your spirit and emboldens you to trust Him for replication of that act. (see Revelation 12:11)
5. Speaking in the tongues of the Spirit imparts faith. Jude 1:20 (NET) says, ‘But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith, by praying in the Holy Spirit,’. As you speak in tongues, the word settles in your spirit-man with powerful conviction that kill every form of doubt.

FAITH IN WHAT (2)

FAITH IN WHAT (2)

And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
Mark 11:22 (KJV)

Why should we have faith in Yahweh? It is important we get acquainted with a few here. We should have faith in Yahweh because:
1. Yahweh is love and love cannot fail or disappoint. 1 John 4:8 says, “He that loveth not knoweth not God? for God is love.” 1 Corinthians 13:8). Yahweh loves you and whatever demand he makes on you by His Word is absolutely for your benefit. Romans 8:32 (KJV) says, ‘He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?’ If Yahweh has already given you His best which is Yahushua in His love for you, then you can trust Him because there is nothing better than Yahushua.
2. Yahweh’s Word has been tried and tested seven times without fail. Psalms 12:6 (KJV) says, ‘The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.’ You can close your eyes and fall back in total reliance on the Word and be sure that you will never fall. The Word is more sure that your physical body – what you can see, feel and touch. That is why your faith must be in Yahweh.
3. Not one jot of what Yahweh has spoken before has failed. Joshua 21:45 (KJV) says, ‘There failed not ought of any good thing which the Lord had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.’ Evidence they say is the end of all argument. I Kings 8:15 (KJV) says, ‘And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, which spake with his mouth unto David my father, and hath with his hand fulfilled it, saying,’ Yahweh has not failed anyone that believed Him in the past, so you can trust Him today.
4. You can only see the manifestation of Yahweh upon faith in Him. In John 11:40 (KJV), ‘Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?’ When her faith was confirmed, her brother was raised back from the dead (John 11:44). There is what we call the law of faith. Stay tuned on this devotional, we shall be discussing it in the course of the month.
5. Yahweh is not a man to lie. Numbers 23:19 (KJV) says, ‘God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?’ I know you are used to the disappointments of people but understand that Yahweh is not a man.

FAITH DEFINED (1)

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
HEBREWS 11:1 [KJV]

There is a world where all things are possible. There is a place where you can have all your needs met according to His riches in glory. Faith is that spiritual force which opens humanity to a world of unlimited possibilities. Faith is a world of no limits; if you can believe, all things are possible. Faith is living in a spiritual world of no limits. Faith is the most potent force in the whole universe; it’s the key to everything in the kingdom. Faith is the connection to the power source of Yahweh. We all agree that with Yahweh all things are possible (see Matthew 19:16; Mark 10:27). If there is any impossibility, it is only in the human realm because with Yahweh all things are possible. So that power that makes all things possible is connectable only with faith. With faith, you stand in the realm of all possibilities. If faith is this powerful, what exactly is faith. If we can define it, we can find it and take delivery of it.

WHAT IS YAHWEH’S REST?

WHAT IS YAHWEH’S REST?

“Therefore I swore in My anger, Truly they shall not enter into My rest.”
Psalms 95:11 [NASB]

Yahweh promised Canaan to Abraham as an inheritance for him and his descendents forever. Genesis 15:18-21 explained this covenant “18 In the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates: 19 The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites, 20 And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims, 21 And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.” At the fullness of time, He raised Moses to take Israel to Canaan from Egypt. In that journey, some people were sent to spy out the land and they brought an evil report to the camp. In Numbers 13:28-33 we read about the report they brought back. Numbers 14:1-4 explained the response of the camp to the report. The camp of Israel in the wilderness believed the report of the ten spies which declared that they be not able to take the land because the inhabitance of the land are stronger than they. This was they saying in essence that the Yahweh that brought them out of Egypt with such display of power is not able to take them into the land He promised to them. This disbelief in Yahweh and His power angered Him so much that He vowed on them, “22 Because all those men which have seen my glory, and my miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not hearkened to my voice; 23 Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see it:” (Numbers 14:22-23).

Now, this case of Israel may be applied to those of their posterity that lived in David’s time, when this psalm was penned; let them hear Yahweh’s voice, and not harden their hearts as their fathers did, lest, if they were stiffnecked like them, Yahweh should be provoked to forbid them the privileges of his temple at Jerusalem, of which he had said, “This is my rest.“ The rest of Yahweh is the place of His presence. It is the place He had put His name forever. The rest of Yahweh is the promised land.

Yahushua HaMashiach is the place which we have come. The Ruach HaKadosh brings us the presence of the Father in Yahushua.

JULY 2022 PROPHETIC FOCUS

JULY 2022 PROPHETIC FOCUS

For we who have believed enter that rest, …
Hebrews 4:3 [NET]

Happy New Month Beloved! Welcome to the month of July of our year of STILL WATERS, GREEN PASTURES 2022. The Still Waters is a place of rest and refreshing. Since the year started, we have been exploring different factors that engender existence in the Still Waters and Green Pastures. We just finished a thorough exposition on the Yahweh-kind of love which settled any issue that might be confronting me now causing me to function in the Still Waters and Green Pastures. We believe that you have been completely immersed in that Word on Love. No matter your level of spirituality, the character of the Yahweh-kind of love will humble you. It is no doubt you are doing well but understanding the character of the Yahweh-kind of love opens you up to a whole new horizon that you see yourself as lacking. I don’t know about anyone else, but sometimes, it looks like to me as if I have not yet started because I see myself so far away from some of the characteristics of the Yahweh’s love. I must say of a truth, there is a new spiritual awakening for me from the Word of June 2022 on the Yahweh-kind of love and I believe that it is same for anyone that followed the devotional and the Word shared in Church all of which are online on our website and accessible for free. May that awakening stay with each one of us forever and increasing in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

The Still Waters is a place of rest and rest is a function of faith. This is the disconnect in the lives of so many believers today. Hearing the Word is not enough. Hebrews 4:2 told us of people that heard the Word but it never profited them “For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.” The instrument that brings us to rest is called faith. Without faith, you can sing rest forever and never experience it. Hebrews 4:3 says, “For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.” Faith is the launcher into the rest of Yahweh. No matter what your matter is today, there remains a rest for you in that matter. But that rest is a function of faith. If rest is your desire in any sphere of life, faith is a must for you. The need for rest in life and destiny cannot be overestimated. Without rest, you would develop all manner of health issues. Without rest, you cannot function in the best of your mental capacity and capability. Without rest, life is utterly meaningless. Rest in time and ultimately in eternity is a function of faith in the Word of Yahweh.

Our prophetic focus for the Month of July 2022 therefore, is “I FUNCTION IN REST BY FAITH IN THIS STILL WATERS, GREEN PASTURES EXPERIENCE” (HEBREWS 4:3).
