CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (11): BELIEVES ALL THINGS

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (11): BELIEVES ALL THINGS
… is ever ready to believe the best of every person, …
1 Corinthians 13:7 (AMPC)
The word translated as “believes” in the second phrase is “pisteu.” The New Testament Greek Lexicon meaning for the word includes: to think to be true, to be persuaded of, to credit, place confidence in, to trust, etc. Once again, Apostle Paul is speaking about our relationships within the body of HaMashiach. Apostle Paul is not calling for a foolish gullibility. However, being guarded against the possibility of being taken advantage of is not correct either. Obviously, this does not mean that we are to lose all discernment when we love someone. In fact, Apostle Paul prays for the Philippians to have a love characterized by discernment. In Philippians 1:9-10 (NKJV), we read, ‘And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment, 10 that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ,’

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (9): DOES NOT REJOICE AT INJUSTICE OR UNRIGHTEOUSNESS

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (9): DOES NOT REJOICE AT INJUSTICE OR UNRIGHTEOUSNESS

It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail.
I Corinthians 13:6 (AMP)

How our lives and relationships will be transformed if we can just start manifesting the Yahweh-kind of love. This love does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness. What does it mean to not rejoice in iniquity? The word “rejoiceth” in the phrase “rejoiceth not in iniquity” according to KJV is translated from the Greek word chairō, which means to rejoice, to be glad, to be delighted or pleased. Think about when you are delighted in something. You may dwell on it or talk about it—maybe you even make a big deal about it or magnify it. You rejoice in it, and it makes you glad. When we manifest the love of Yahweh, we absolutely don’t rejoice in unrighteousness. We assuredly don’t take pleasure in wrongdoing. And we most certainly don’t gloat over other men’s sins nor show gladness when others do wrong or fail.

WHAT IS THE LORD SAYING FOR FEBRUARY 2023?

Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
I John 2:15 [KJV]

Welcome to the month of February in our year of the #DependableYahweh. We are already set this year for outstanding success having stayed almost all through January on the fasting and prayer mountain. It was such an intense month of prayer and fasting with the theme “I am empowered on the altar of fasting and prayer to serve the Dependable Yahweh.” We explored the fact that you are here to serve the interest of the Kingdom of Yahweh, otherwise, you would have been physically translated the very day that you got saved. He left you here so that you can be an instrument to bringing others out of the bondage of sin and Satan. We saw what fasting is and scriptural examples of fasting. We examined in depth what fasting offers and how to fast acceptably. There is acceptable fast and also unacceptable fast. We believe in all that you were transfigured as you prayed and more importantly empowered to serve Yahweh this year. We prayed intensely to receive the grace to serve Him as a lifestyle with proofs and we believe that the rest months of this year is already a walkover. Having been empowered, it is now time to prove our love for the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach by deploying ourselves full-time for the interest, increase and expansion of His kingdom.

SERVING THE INTEREST OF YAHWEH’S KINGDOM IS THE REASON YOU ARE HERE

SERVING THE INTEREST OF YAHWEH’S KINGDOM IS THE REASON YOU ARE HERE

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness? and all these things shall be added unto you.
Matthew 6:33 [KJV]

You saved to serve. The reason Yahushua did not call you home to be with Him at your salvation is because, He needs you here to serve the interest of His Kingdom. The Kingdom of Yahushua on earth now is the souls that have subscribed to the Lordship of Yahushua in their lives. The interest of Yahweh’s kingdom on earth is all about the salvation and establishment of souls. This is your sole responsibility as a believer now. This is the very reason why you are alive today. So many people think that they are alive to worship and praise Yahweh. That is true but you don’t need to be alive to worship and praise Yahweh. When you go to be with the Lord Yahushua, all you do 24/7 is worshipping the beauty of Holiness. If worship and praise is the reason you are alive now, then you don’t need to be on earth to truly praise the Lord. The very reason you are alive now is to be an instrument to bring someone to salvation. Remember, the only reason the Lord Yahushua came to earth is the salvation of the soul of man. There is no other reason. Humanity was lost in sin and needed a saviour; one who can satisfy the demand of Yahweh’s justice. When He was born, the angel announced His purpose. In Matthew 1:18 the Word says, “And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.” He came to save souls.

QUALIFICATION TO BE LED (5): BE QUIET

QUALIFICATION TO BE LED (5): BE QUIET

And after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
I Kings 19:12 (KJV)

In our quest to access divine direction, we must maintain quietness in our spirit and in our environment. This is the reason Yahweh calls people up a physical mountain to meet them. It is to come out of the distractions of their environment and family. It takes a great level of quietness and serenity to hear Yahweh’s voice of direction. Yahweh’s voice of direction is often a still small voice that sounds in your spirit and you are likely to miss it if you are rowdy in your spirit and if your environment is not serene. If divine direction is your quest, then you must seek to maintain a quiet spirit and environment. You can engage in activities that can quiet your spirit and bring it to the state of tranquillity. In Isaiah 14:7, the Word says, ‘The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing.’ Singing spiritual songs quiets your spirit. If you are agitated, then separate yourself and begin to sing to the Lord. Spiritual songs relaxes your spirit and even your soul and body, bringing you to a complete state of quietness.

KNOW YAHWEH’S LEADING (5): BY VISIONS

KNOW YAHWEH’S LEADING (5): BY VISIONS

And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.
Acts 16:9 (KJV)

Vision in this context is the experience where Yahweh opens your eyes to see something while your eyes maybe open or closed. Open vision is where your physical eyes are not closed but you see into the spiritual realm. Visions can come while you are sleeping or while you are awake. Yahweh does not lead us through vision primarily. Visions come as confirmation of what Yahweh is telling us on our inside. Visions are never to lead the church. Visions are judged by the Word of Yahweh just like prophecy. The coming of the Holy Spirit sparked off an era of visionary encounters. Acts 2:17 says, ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:’

BE INSTRUCTION MINDED

BE INSTRUCTION MINDED

Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life.
Proverbs 4:13 [KJV]

There are a lot of believers in HaMashiach that are only blessing minded. They are the Amen crew of believers; receiving blessings and echoing Amen and that ends it for them. But Yahweh has designed life to function on principles. There is a principle Yahweh established in Genesis 8:22: While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. It is the principle of Seedtime and harvest. Science decoded it and calls it the principle of cause and effect. This means that if harvest is your objective, then you must not ignore seedtime. This means that no matter how you shout Amen to a prophetic declaration, if that your Amen was the only action you took, you maybe heading to frustration if the outcome requires other input. For instance, until you give, you cannot receive. Giving is the seed that is required to be planted for the harvest of blessings to result. Luke 6:38 says, ‘Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.’ It is what you gave that a good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over is returned into your bosom. This is a principle of seedtime and harvest and it has no respect to whether you are born again or not. If you take this principle no matter who you are and diligently apply it, you will without fail, end at the supposed outcome.

THANKFUL FOR OCTOBER 2022

THANKFUL FOR OCTOBER 2022

In God will I praise his word: in the Lord will I praise his word.
Psalms 56:10 [KJV]

The Lord and His Word are the same. For us to come into His presence, the divine protocol is to enter with thanksgiving (see Psalms 100:4). You cannot enjoy the Word from the outer court. It is the Spirit that teaches us the Word. You must come into His presence first and that entails having a thankful/grateful heart. Maybe this is the link that is missing in the lives of so many students of the Word. Thanksgiving and praise is the way to enter into the presence of the Lord. Also it takes thanksgiving and praise to access revelation from the Word because you are only inside the court by thanksgiving and praise. Mark 4:11 says, ‘And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:’ You are within the court by thanksgiving and praise. No matter how in a hurry you are to read or study, close your eyes and thank the Lord for the privilege to have His Word and to read it.

ARE THERE DANGERS OF NOT BEING BUILT UP BY THE WORD?

ARE THERE DANGERS OF NOT BEING BUILT UP BY THE WORD?

And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
Acts 20:32 (KJV)

In this kingdom, it takes maturing into sonship to enter into your inheritance. Isaiah 9:6 says, ‘For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.’ You are born a child when you are born again. But it takes the training of the Word to come into sonship and until you come to sonship, you don’t enter into rulership. Romans 8:19 says, ‘For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.’ The creation is not waiting for the children of Yahweh but for the sons. These are ones that have been trained by the Word and are able to receive the government upon their shoulder. They are people who are fully developed in the Word to understand the will of the Father and how to respond in obedience to Him. All these development is only possible by the Word. It is only the agency of the Word that see the development of the child of Yahweh into sonship. Sonship is about coming to the stage of knowing the will of the Father and that comes by much training in the Word.
