A Dream I would like to share

English

I would like to share a dream I had many years ago

I dreamt that I was involved with a house on a hill which was known as a Sanctuary - it is like a halfway house where people can come and share their troubles and ask for help and bed for the night or while they were in recovery.  It was a place filled with people with all sorts of addictions and troubles, looking for a way out - it was a place of prayer and grace, where when people came in they were not judged for where they were but welcomed and treated with respect and kindness and were offered the help they were seeking, but not only that they were also being given the opportunity to learn new skills to enable them to move on in their lives.  I am sensing that now is the time for this to be prayed for into fruition.  It is my hearts desire to really make a difference in peoples lives.  Not just with the simple things but also with reaching the very heart of their pain and bringing them to the Father for their complete restoration.  Please pray for me to be able to accomplish this for His Glory

Eu gostaria de compartilhar um sonho que tive há muitos anos atrás
Sonhei que eu estava envolvido com uma casa em uma colina que era conhecido como um santuário - é como uma casa de passagem, onde as pessoas podem vir e compartilhar seus problemas e pedir ajuda e uma cama para a noite ou enquanto eles estavam em recuperação. Era um lugar cheio de pessoas com todos os tipos de vícios e problemas, procurando um caminho para fora - era um lugar de oração e de graça, em que, quando as pessoas vieram em que não foram julgados para onde eles foram, mas recebidos e tratados com respeito e bondade e foram oferecidas a ajuda que eles estavam procurando, mas não só isso, eles também estavam sendo dada a oportunidade de aprender novas habilidades para que possam seguir em frente em suas vidas. Estou sentindo que agora é o momento para que isso seja orou em fruição. É o meu coração o desejo de realmente fazer a diferença na vida das pessoas. Não apenas com as coisas simples, mas também com alcançar o coração de sua dor e levá-los ao Pai para a sua restauração completa. Por favor, orem para que eu seja capaz de fazer isso para a Sua Glória

 Ich möchte einen Traum zu teilen hatte ich vor vielen Jahren
Ich träumte, dass ich mit einem Haus auf einem Hügel, der als bekannt wurde Sanctuary beteiligt war - es ist wie ein halbes Haus, wo Leute kommen und teilen ihre Sorgen und um Hilfe bitten und Bett für die Nacht oder während sie in der Genesung waren. Es war ein Ort mit Menschen mit allen Arten von Süchten und Probleme, auf der Suche nach einem Ausweg - es war ein Ort des Gebets und der Gnade, wo, wenn die Leute in sie kam nicht, wo sie waren, sondern beurteilt wurden begrüßt und mit Respekt behandelt und Freundlichkeit und wurden die Hilfe, die sie suchten angeboten, aber nicht nur, dass sie ebenfalls die Möglichkeit, neue Fähigkeiten zu erlernen, damit sie sich bewegen in ihrem Leben gegeben. Ich spürte, dass jetzt die Zeit für diese, für in Erfüllung gebetet werden soll. Es ist mein Herz begehrt, um wirklich einen Unterschied im Leben der Menschen. Nicht nur mit den einfachen Dingen, sondern auch mit dem Erreichen der Herzen ihrer Schmerzen und bringen sie an den Vater für ihre komplette Restaurierung. Bitte betet für mich in der Lage sein, dies zu erreichen, zu Seiner Ehre

Je voudrais partager un rêve que j'ai fait il ya plusieurs années
J'ai rêvé que j'étais impliqué avec une maison sur une colline qui était connu comme un sanctuaire - c'est comme une maison de transition où les gens peuvent venir partager leurs problèmes et demander de l'aide et un lit pour la nuit ou pendant qu'ils étaient dans la récupération. C'était un endroit rempli de gens avec toutes sortes d'addictions et les troubles, à la recherche d'un moyen de sortir - il a été un lieu de prière et de grâce, où quand les gens venaient en elles n'ont pas été jugés pour savoir où ils étaient, mais accueillis et traités avec respect et gentillesse et se sont vu offrir l'aide dont ils cherchaient, mais pas seulement qu'ils ont également eu la possibilité d'acquérir de nouvelles compétences pour leur permettre d'avancer dans leur vie. Je sens que le moment est venu pour que cela soit prié pour en concrétiser. Ce sont mes cœurs désirent vraiment faire une différence dans la vie des gens. Pas seulement avec les choses simples, mais aussi avec d'atteindre le cœur même de leur douleur et de leur apporter le Père pour leur restauration complète. S'il vous plaît priez pour moi d'être en mesure d'accomplir ce pour Sa Gloire

Learning to Overcome

An article which really is a blessing to read.  I found it inightful and really a great way to promote the blessings of understanding Gods word in every day life.

I use their booklets and their magazines and their Bible Study course - which has been a really valuable tool for my walk with the Messiah.  I would definitely recommend the Bible Study.

Their booklets are free and whatever you need you can ask for help from their editors and I am sure like me you will find their tools a boon to your walking with the Lord and discovering the research and Spiritual guidance a blessing to you life.

Here is the article I have been reading to day. Mental Health 

Love One Another As I have Loved You

Greater love has no man than that which Christ did for us.  Giving His life for us to be saved and reconciled back to the Father.

Sharing one another's burdens, and really learning to live in harmony and peace that is the Message that Christ bought to us from His heavenly father.

When you consider all the teaching and guidelines that God gave to Moses and the Prophets and all the teachings of Yeshua/Jesus you can see very clearly that we are called to live in peace with our neighbour's.

Why is it then that there is so much back biting and spiteful gossip and malice scandal that goes on in the so called Body of Christ, what kind of impression do we give with all this going on.

Recently I have been going to lovely Friday evening Praise and Worship in Marbella and the people I have been meeting there are all looking for the same answers, where and when will people really start to behave like the early disciples and really love their brother and sisters without constant backstabbing and denouncing of each other.

When will people realise that when the Holy Spirit moves in a persons life it does really transform them from within, their old lives are washed away by the Blood of the Lamb and they are then able to live again as a New Creation in Christ the Redeemer. 

Do people think that the Word of God is Soft - Do they consider Gods Word as to no effect - look at what happened in the Scriptures to people when they came up against God in the Past.

Why is it today we see so much criticism in the groups that meet to fellowship - when we look at what the Scripture says about immoral and disharmonious behaviour the people where cast out in order for them to learn what it takes to really be part of the Body of Christ.

Today in the so called social gospel in the churches it practically allows anything in - yet when we read the letters of Paul and Peter and the other disciples we see a completely different picture.

Perhaps, we need to revisit the scriptures for ourselves and really consider what it means when Jesus/Yeshua said that we should love our brother and sisters ad He Has and Is loving us.  Why do we constantly grieve the Holy Spirit by not obeying what Yeshua/Jesus teaches us through the pages of the Word.

Looking at the Fruits of the Spirit - Love, Joy, Peace, Self Control.  Where is that seen in reality.  More often than not there is some backroom bickering going on about this or that.  About who is in charge of this or that, whether this or that can be shown and learned.

Surely, we who come together for the Praise and Worship and fellowship with fellow believers we should be living according to what the Scriptures says.

They had all things in common, they lifted each other up, they shared each others burdens, they prayed for the sick, they rose the dead in His Name - Whose Name are we behaving like when we bitch and argue, and back stab.

Is it not time we should consider how we really treat our fellows.  How do you think it looks when people walk in looking for solace only to walk in on an atmosphere that could be cut through with a knife of bad feelings, jealousy and anger, bitterness and resentment.

Come on fellow heirs to the Kingdom it is time to really show the TRUE FACE OF THE MESSIAH. WE who are called to serve the King in His way have a duty to instruct and admonish those who are not living to the Standards of God - yet we too must also be living the life that God has placed before us.

When we meet a man in the street and we do not listen to his voice - how can you call yourself a follower of the King - He had time for every one, he showed compassion to every one, He cared for every one.  Why dont we.

Are you afraid that someone is going to attack you - you might be attacked but rather than live in Fear why no live in the presence of the Almighty and TRUST God to show you how to speak to that person who has asked you for a moment of your time. Jesus would stop for you - yet you will not stop for him.

Cleansing the Bottle - Your Inner Man/Woman

When we come to the Lord and call upon His name to be saved and surrender our lives to Him – Then the process of cleansing begins.

Opening our hearts and minds, reading the Word of God and discovering what it means to follow Yeshua/Jesus, the Messiah, the Son of the Living God.

As we progress in learning about the Kingdom of God and learning Gods teaching, Torah we always find that in contrast with the Commandments and Gods Statutes and decrees we are a long way from them.

Yeshua/Jesus calls us to become purified and sanctified, spotless from the things of this world. It is not always easy to let go of the way of life we have lived, or even have our minds seared by the Word of God.

Learning the complete and open meaning of the Commandments and His statutes, decrees then starts the process of deep cleansing – asking God to search out our darkest secrets – which he knows are in our hearts and minds.

Old wine skins cannot hold new wine. Therefore the Old must be made new.

The teachings we have received regarding replacement theology and the doing away with the Laws of God – you will find if you are truly touched by the Holy Spirit it will lead you back to them, because we see that Yeshua/Jesus and the disciples all lived according to them, including all the Holy Shabbats, Feast days, Harvesting celebrations, the Passover, Feast of Weeks, Feast of Tabernacles, Day of Atonement. When you really start to study the scriptures you will indeed discover a way of life planned out by God for all mankind.

Looking at the scriptures and seeing that we are called to put away malice, lying, cheating, adultery, fornication, sorcery, witchcraft, rebellion, abusive language and behaviour, back stabbing, gossiping, false witness, oppressive behaviour, pride. We see all these pointers are throughout the Word of God – we need to check that these sins are all handed over to the Father so that we may be made whole and cleansed – for we have all sinned – whether to lesser or greater degree. The only way to be sure is to confess, repent and be thoroughly aware of these sins in your own mind and heart being honest before God – for we were unable to be anything else before we came to the Lord.

The Spirit of Discipline, the teacher and revealer of all truths starts opening you up and giving you the opportunity to be born again – and entering into a new life. A lifestyle under God – entering into Gods Kingdom with His Rules and Regulations. The problem is that we have been so used to doing "our own thing" living just how we want, eating just whatever we want – totally living in ignorance that God’s lifestyle offers us a life of Peace, Hope and health. Wisdom comes from the fear of the God and His ways.

Being in a place of awe and wonderment at how much God loves us and wants us to be made perfect and whole and transformed into His likeness. This starts to happen when we take seriously the need to be transformed in our lifestyles, it is not a religious experience it is a life changing adventure to come back to the Father to realise that God has so much to give to us and bless us if we
are prepared to be demolished and rebuilt, emptying out the old in order to receive the new wine every morning.

Trusting God to delivery you from your past lives, demons and addictions – to be cleansed of immoral and abusive behaviour – it is a way of life – changing from within to be seen to be changed on the outside – Only God can really make the changes – He wants us to acknowledge and really turn to him. This is not "churchianity or any religion" but a way of life.

To live Gods life as ordained it for all mankind. Recognizing the difference is vital if you want to progress and aim for the Goal that God has set before us – TO BE TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING OF THE MIND.

Having our Hearts of stone replaced with a heart of Flesh – filled with compassion and love, joy and gratefulness and above all obedient to God’s Word – For His word never changes nor does it fade away.

Surely, that is what all men are seeking – peace to live with one another in Peace and Harmony.

It does not matter where you have come from, what you have been taught – because to become a new creation under God – it is in forgetting all former ways – you cannot bring anything of your old teachings into the Kingdom because they do not fit in – Only Gods Torah, Teachings, Rules and Regulations are going to be the acceptable way to live God’s Lifestyle.

Immoral and Perverse Generation

We do not consider it to be a "SIN" to live with someone as husband and wife – without entering into a marriage contract – yet God calls this immoral behaviour – because when he created man and woman – they were to become one flesh – united together – never to be separated.

By living together , exchanging partners – wife swapping as they did and probably still do today since the late 60’s, and "free love" as with the hippy movement and flower power movement – of the 70’s exchanging one partner after another without considering the consequences. We who are alive today are products of such a time as this. Promiscuity, abortions, unwanted children, single parenthood – diverse sexually transmitted diseases – these have all been brought about by the attitude and morals of the "baby Boomer generation" creating a playground of hell for the next generation. The drug abusive behaviour of today – the lack of morals and ineptitude of people who are unable to maintain relationships, marriages, even jobs – people today do not have the moral fibre necessary to offer good cohesive moral standards of education – because when we look at our own behaviour over the years since we were teenagers we have had lax morals – you copy your adults around you.

I saw much of this when I was growing up in the Sixties and Seventies. I even went onto become a statistic myself as a single mum. How can people learn to get values if their so called models are not giving the right education.

Today in schools – sex education is taught – yet morals set by God are ignored and even jeered at, mockers and scoffers who do little to help young people prepare for life ahead in a really mixed up and perverse world.

The people have forgotten the rules of respect and decency, it is ok for someone to sleep around – yet when there is a disease that is being transmitted due to such activity it is suddenly seen as something horrible and needs to be eradicated – you cannot change people’s behaviour by locking doors. You need to educate people at the core of their being.

People need to learn again the Sanctity of their bodies, their worth to themselves. Learn to respect themselves, and then they will respect others. When we respect God and His teachings and learn to follow His example we can see that by our own behaviour we have a long way to go.

We need to confess our faults as teachers of the young – we need to bring about a new understanding about what is right and wrong – the way of the World is destruction – Yet God has a way of life that is both fulfilling and rewarding.

When we look at what God says it is not how God intended us to behave – He calls us to be sanctified and Holy. Making our commitments to one another to last our lifetimes. Yet – we have bed-hopped, pill popped, smoked our way through life without ever giving a second thought to the consequence of our lives. We have been brought up in a time where it has deemed acceptable behaviour to go live with boyfriends/girlfriends, to be involved in perverse behaviour – homosexual acts, even exchanging with animals. (we can see that this is totally forbidden in the scriptures) It separates us from God – with behaviour like this we will not get into the Kingdom of God for such behaviour is not tolerated in the Kingdom of God – you only have to look at what the Bible says on such matters.

When we look at God’s way of life in His Commandments and Teachings we can see we have much to learn. We see that by coveting/lusting after our neighbours husbands/wives/girlfriends/boyfriends we are actually causing harm and pain to others.

Breaking up marriages with adulterous behaviour – that is what it is when we go to seek another partner outside our marriages – yet today’s society does not consider it to be a "Sin" – however there are more breakdowns in marriage from "non-reconcilable attitudes" within a marriage. It makes me think that before we embark on this amazing journey with someone else we should ask ourselves if we are really ready for such a commitment – if we are not compatible – that is we do not have anything truly in common even though we may consider that it is not going to be a stumbling block at first – we do in time find that there are issues we first considered but dismissed because we were so keen and infatuated with the idea of getting married to the person that we would take the risk – only to discover later that it was not really what we wanted – perhaps we try to change the person to fit into our own idea and conceptions – in which case it is not equal nor is it a oneness that you are looking for. For my own experience it has happened in such a way – believing that the differences would not matter – only to find that they really do matter for both sides and even on the eve of my first marriage my then husband did not want to go through with it, although we were persuaded that it was what we should do – relationships built on unsure ground can only end up in disaster.

Sadly, this is happening to a great deal to people. Better to step back and really consider the consequences of what would happen if the marriage was not a joining together made by God. We cannot and should not marry outside God as the marriages are not going to hold together well – some people are successful – sometimes because they become resigned to the situation – others stay together for the sake of the children – yet are really unhappy in their lives.

My experience has taught me that from now on IF AND WHEN GOD SHOULD CHOOSE A PARTNER FOR ME AND WHEN AND IF THAT TIME COMES THEN IT WILL BE CLEAR TO BOTH PARTIES. God does know exactly what He wants from a relationship between two people – bringing them together into one being (unit) for the benefit of all around not just for the two in question. His aim is to increase the understanding of being at one with each other and with God. For when we are being led by God to do something then God has the last word. I remember well before I got married the first time that I was being warned off clearly by the Word of God not to be unevenly yoked with an unbeliever – there is always trouble. There was. So when you consider getting married please be sure that your are absolutely convinced that this person is whom you are going to fit jointly together and have a feeling of oneness together – for without that then there is going to be a disaster waiting round the corner. Being unevenly yoked happens a lot and no wonder the divorce courts are flowing with divorces. Better to be sure and obedient to God and secure in the knowledge that When God does the Joining together then there is a complete assurance that no matter what you go through with God’s help and guidance you will come through the storms of life.

Knowing that God hates divorce – even though it was given as a "get" by Moses – God makes it very clear that it is the hardness of our hearts and our unwillingness to embrace the truth of how we treat each other – each believing that they are misunderstood, unloved, unfulfilled – yet instead of running out the door perhaps people should really take a good look at themselves and see what they are doing to each other – listen to how you speak to one another, think about one another, how your attitude is towards your overall marriage and most of all consider the consequences for your children’s sake.

Very often people just want to escape a boring lifestyle which they themselves have created – yet with patience and love and kindness and prayfulness bringing the issues before the Lord could in fact make their relationship blossom and grow. Hard times are for polishing us to helps us to grow strong and learn to share our burdens with each other and pray together and really bring our worries to God our burdens to His table and ask for forgiveness and help from the source of all life, love and light.

Learning to forgive is really not easy sometimes, but we are called to forgive and pray for our enemies – for if we are at enmity with our partners how can we say we love others.

Firstly we must look to ourselves and see what we can do – if we are sincere in our hearts we need to remember that we are two made one, learning to live together in love and harmony – bringing everything to God in prayer is the only true way of a successful marriage. Yes, there are times when things can be difficult but when you face them together then the house will not fall. A house divided will always fall. So before you make the step towards marrying anyone have a good look at what you are both coming into. Marriage under God is Sanctified and Holy and not to be entered into lightly. To defile our marriages is a sin against each other and God. The only people who are truly going to get hurt is ourselves. When we consider that no matter how many times we seek to find the "perfect partner" we are to look at ourselves and ask ourselves are we "perfect". There must be a oneness in mind, and understanding that the path ahead is a path to walked by one unit joined together under God. A relationship built on Trust, Hope and Love, and Obedience to God first.

To value our relationships with God and each other is paramount. Learning to live together in Harmony of the Spirit to follow Gods teaching on how to live the life more abundantly is our goal. To receive blessings from God is to Walk in His statutes and His decrees for we can see in Deuteronomy that there is much to be gained by Obeying Gods voice and Hearing His teachings and His way of doing things.

We have tried it our own way and failed dismally – we can see that clearly in society today.

We have been given a wonderful gift with the Messiah to lead us to redemption and reconciliation and Life more abundantly in Him. So why not have a good look at the lives you are living and match it up with the Way of Life that God is offering and really consider your own faults and bring them before the King of Kings and really ask for forgiveness for your own mistakes in your life. We are all striving for the same thing to be transformed into his likeness and to live and love the Way the Yeshua lives and loves. His sacrifice is not in vain, His resurrection brings us hope and joy and great harmony with the Creator God.

Take a good look at the commandments and see if you too can discover a way to live a more harmonious lifestyle for you and your family. I have studied and discovered that by following God’s teaching it does indeed bring its own rewards.

The word Judges us – we do not judge each other but when you read the scripture and learn to follow you see for yourself the Word is there clearly to show you a new light on your own behaviour.

We see from socieites history especially from the 60's where there is open rebellion to moral standards - rebellion is as witchcraft and is an abomination to God.
Hence the Call to Repentence - having our hearts and mind seared by the Word of the Lord.  Gods Word is powerful and does change peoples lives.

Leviticus - Gods priniciples for living

Restoration: Returning the Torah of God to the Disciples of Jesus

Running Against the Wind

Complete Jewish Bible-OE

Have you ever wondered where we get our basic moral thinking from.  Today I have been reading Leviticus and have been amazed at the way God was and is involved in our lives.  Without a lot of Gods prinicples medicine would not be where it is today, nor would there be a basic moral compass.

We have a lot to thank our believing forefathers who choose to live according to His word and build our nations laws with the basics from the Commandments of God.

I have today been reading how the priests in the tent of meeting under Moses direction were given instructions on how to discern when a disease of the body was in fact infectious or not, whether there was any real danger to the whole community, the way that it was dealt with was very simple and yet very effective.

When someone discovered they had a rash or blister or sore on their body they were to present themselves to the priests who after examination could determine the right course of action - after giving the person quarantine for several days they could reexamine the infected area it it spread that person was maintained in quarantine and it was very effective, if a house was contaminated they also took action regarding the contaminated area of the property and dealt with it swiftly again after much scruitny. Today - you can present yourself to the Dr yet he may or maynot recognise what is wrong - and as for putting people in quarantine when they not sure - they put them in to hospital beds usually amongst other patients until they can determine if it is contagious or not - this happened to my husband when he was in hospital - the person in the next bed came in with an unknown and then when it was discovered he had something that potentially could be contagious they removed him from the ward - yet while he had been on the ward he could have infected more people including the staff - so not much common sense is going on in the hospitals then, you can see this by the spread of various diseases that frequently shut hospitals to outsiders during an outbreak of one kind or another - I used to work at Walsgrave hospital and was increasingly alarmed at the rise of Cdif and Novovirus which spread like wildfire - so I stopped working at the hospital - as at the time my husband was working at the university of Coventry and therefore if I picked up something and brought it home it would then have easy access to much more people through my husband. 

People today do not seem to be aware of the need to be clean before entering into a hosptial - I have seen some sights in my time. No wonder the problems persist.  It is not only the out patients nor the visitors that put others at risk it is  the medical staff themselves with their lack of care and attention to their uniforms - espcially the nursing staff - who frequently wear their uniforms on buses and in public places which are putting themselves and others at risk.  Long gone have the matrons of the wards who would be watching for any discrepencies in their nurses behaviour.  Now it does not seem to matter what people wear when they are coming into hospital.  There is not the same due diligence about the uniforms at all - in the past it would not be considered proper for a nurse to be seen out on the streets in their uniforms unless they were district nurses - in which case there was a different criteria of dress code. 

Today, even if you go to work with a cold or flu - people do not seem to consider it worth their while staying off because of the risk of losing their jobs, yet are quite unaware of the dangers of spreading potentially dangerous viruses within the communities at large.  You can see the devestating effects of the Spanish Flu epidemic and also the bird flu not long ago - because people are not willing to stay away from their precious jobs - yet if people start dying then there is suddenly an uproar on how do we contain the epidemic - you can see what happened during the recent years of bird flu - cross country contamination is widespread a disease can spread from one side of the world to the next with in hours - so do not think we live in such enlightened times.  People do not care about whether the illness they have could cause others to get sick.  They sometimes do not present themselves to anyone until it is almost too late, then there is the panic to control diseases, look at legionnaires disease airbourne - brought in by others from overseas taken into buildings spreads like wild fire - again shutting down business and hospitals.  There must come a point in each persons life to recognise that we are all responsible to each other - we need to take care if we are not feeling well to seek advice from whomever they would seek advice from. 

For me I would go to God and ask Him to show me why I am feeling bad - if it is something that can be dealt with quickly. For me I have suffered in my body from diverse difficulties, I had in the early 90's picked up Hepititus A which is not a killer - but it does not have any true medical antidotes - your body has to get rid of it by itself - over time, but during the worse of it I went jaundiced and could have died - yet did not - during the time I had seen the Drs yet they could give me nothing to ease the situation  So I spent a lot of my time in prayer and seeking God for help as I was unable to eat anything for months I lived on water - I was so ill my daughter thought she was going to loose me.  Only God could pull me through.  I was in agony with the pain and the sweats and freezing cold that you get with this dreadful disease (it is when your liver becomes infected), I was even concerned that I would die, but I also knew that God would not take me if it was not my time.  Hence I am still here.

My husband at the time was a junkie - he used the needle for doing his habit  - his reaction was to stick another needle into his body - and get relief from watching me suffer - yet even he could not believe that it was me who was suffering so much when it was he who was being so deliberately selfish with his actions.  He did not get sick - yet here I was lying in my bed with something that stopped me functioning as a person for months - it was about 6 months that I suffered with this disease - not able to eat - yet somehow was coming thruogh with prayer and somehow I know that God was pulling me through - I knew that I was suffering because I had chosen a path of life that was not right for me, I had deliberately married a man I should not have married - God does make it abundatly clear that if you choose a path that is against Gods design for your life you will pay the price - even with your own life - for me that was a stark warning - and I had to suffer the consequences of my deliberate disobedience for a few more years until I fully understood what was wrong with my way of life.  My husband never did change his lifestyle and is still in the same lifestyle - still alive in his misery and that is his choice.

For me, I had to leave and get my life sorted out with God and back into the path of His choosing.  For me that meant rediscovering my walk with God and returning to His Word to discover what I was doing wrong.  I learned alot about Trusting God to pull me through many a dark moment - yet all the time He has been leading me on to this moment where I really do start to take seriously what He has called me to do, that is to bring comfort to others.

In my journey as a believer in Yeshua/Jesus Christ - I have learned many things,  The most important to me is that when reading the scriptures of what Yeshua taught - he was teaching people from the Scriptures which were to a lot of people they understand it as the Old Testament - yet when you read the "old testament" you can see that you can find God there and how He and His power turned the lives of Israel around - He showed His love and mercy and also His strength that when people would do things that were contrary to what He had said they invariable paid with their lives.

He gave a warning to the people of Israel - this is the group of people whom He choose to be lighthouses in the world - these are the people He uses to teach other nations what it is to be faithful and what happens when a nation refuses to be faithful and obey His ruling and teaching.  The Israelites thoughout all of history have been a lighthouse - a barometer if you like for how God will and does treat nations.

Israel was given the command not to go seeking how other nations lived, and practice their religion - yet Israel on several occasions did just that and when they did they were sent into exile - yet each time there would be someone who would be looking for God and His ways and bring the people back to God again - and then Israel would enter a time of blessing - Israel was told not to seek after the ways of other nations - not to defile their lives living promisciously with fornication, debauchry nor lusting after other gods.  Yet they did and as God had showed them that the nations that they had been sent into - God was clearing them out of the way because of their behaviour - look at Sodom and Gomorrah for one example.  He said the the land would spew the people out - in fact it says the land will vomit the people out of the land - because of the defiling behaviour.

In todays society I look around and see that the very things that God had said in Leviticus regarding relationships with men and women, man and man, man with animals, women with animals, even their depraved sexual appetites - men sleeping with their nearest relatives - their daughters, nieces, nephews, women sleeping with their sons, cousins, nephews, brothers.  Throughout history this has gone on - you can look at the time of the Cesars - you can see insatiable appetite to seek sexual pleasures in diverse ways.  The Greeks and Romans with their homosexuallity - seen at that time as normal - yet in God sight is not normal.  In fact God says it is an abomination - when nations choose to incorporate laws to suggest that it is right for homosexuals to marry - then you can see from the recent events in history - from the very time when governments agreed to this propostious decison it is when the governments of the world started to suffer with the financial breakdown, and the storms and volcanic erruptions and earthquakes have increased.

Yet mankind chooses to ignore these signs and perversely continues on the path of mass destruction - when are people going to wake up and see that while we insist on behaving worse than animals to each other and behave as if nothing really matters because who cares who gets hurt.

When people treat each other with disdain and disregard life and treat it as cheap - that humanbeings are expendible, does it not show just how far away we have become from being civilised.

Civilisations in the past have risen and fallen at Gods Command - you can see that in the dream of Nebecanezzer - with the statue which was made up of many civilisation - his being the head of gold - Bablyon and all the others were lesser and lesser right up to day - were we could be at the toes of the civilisation - a mixture of clay and iron - yet even so the Stone that mankind has choosen to throw out is the very Stone that will bring this so called civilised world to its knees.  (book of Daniel)

God made it very clear in Deuteronomy that if people will refuse to believe in Him and refuse to live the Lifestyle that God has laid out before mankind then they would be led into believing a dreadful fatal lie - which is what has happened.  Disregarding God, dismissing God out of our thoughts and ways we have actually written our own death warrant. 

God does not mess about, His word never changes - even Yeshua/Jesus Chrsit makes that very clear - that not one jot nor title will pass away - that nothing of Gods Commands are thrown away or changed in fact when the Messiah returns we shall all be called to live by Gods Commands and His teaching and His feast days.  Not like today where it is perfectly ok to celebrate halloween and christmas - which are both pagan festivals.  Nothing to do with God at all.  We bring our children up to believe in half truths and wonder why they are in such a mess.

As a child I can remember going to Sunday school and celebrating halloween - that is because that was considered to be ok, it was the way it was - as the teaching were not checked.

For me, the more I look at Gods Word and His feast days and recognise the Power in His word and recognise the folly of following anything other than God to me there is only one direction that these sad teaching of the world will lead the people - as Yeshua/Jesus Christ said the blind leading the blind and both will fall into the ditch - is it not time for you to open your Bibles and seek out HOW TO REALLY SERVE THE LIVING GOD OF ISRAEL for we all who claim to be believers in His precious Son really do need to learn from God himself.

On learning about incestuous behaviour being marked out very clearly in the Bible and seeking to understand how Gods word applies today I can see that God said that the consequences of such activity could result in many things coming to pass not least death.  You can see from history in local small farm communities where there has been such activities, the deformaties, death toll and mental deficiency that occurs.  Look at the horrendous act that was perpetrated by that father that kept his daughter locked up and having children by her - and on discovery the shame and horror of it came out. 

For us as a society in order for us to move forward to have any semblence of possible prosperity it is time to recognise that God is in Heaven and His is most definitely in charge of events.  Even the disaters that are befallen on the earth - after all He said it would happen and the reason for it was because man has turned their back on God. 

Time is running out - you can see for yourself as you look in the news papers, news programmes and events that are happening on the earth - there is a definite move happening. 

It is time to wake up - stop burying your head in the sand and hoping it will all go away, the only way it will go away is when people start to REPENT AND TURN BACK TO THE FATHER.

By living God's way, keeping His Commandments, His teachings - the morale compass of the world would be a much different place.  We would be living in peace with one another, we would be having no sickness and disease - that is Gods promise that we would be living in a time of peace and He would be governing our planet.  That is an amazing thought and hope. 

For me, it is not a fairytale because I have experienced Gods powerful hand in my life.  Now I choose to live according to His teachings, seeking out how to live the life.  Not just by reading the scriptures but by applying them into my own way of thinking.

No wonder God says seek you first the Kingdom of heaven, well in seeking the Kingdom of heaven you learn about His laws and His teachings.  You come back to the beginning and start to ask God questions about where it is all going and what is it all about.  For me it has been amazing discovery. 

Even in one person who reads this agrees and chooses to read the scriptures to check out what I have been saying is right then that is one more than yesterday.

I do not give you quotation - I give you whole books such as Leviticus and all its chapters - in the Word of God there is a the answers for life itself.

The Word of God shows that there is right way to life and a way to death.  God give mankind a choice.  He gave us freewill to choose the path we want to take.  However He also has a plan for your life - which hopefully you will choose to follow Him.  God is the one that opens the eyes of the blind - not just physically but spiritually too.  Yeshua/Jesus Christ himself said - no man can come to the father unless he come through Him - Yeshua/Jesus Chrsit - yet no man can come to Yeshua/Jesus Christ unless God is drawing him/her.  So you see - there does come a time in your life where you will be given an opportunity to seek how to live, calling on Yeshua/Jesus Christ is just the first step, as the gift of the Holy Spirit who is a revealler of all truths and teacher will start to give you and urge and desire to discover more. 

You can look at Gods laws as boundaries God has set before us as objectives to achieve.  I am at the moment teaching my dog boundaries as what she can and cannot do for her own benefit, God has given us the Laws and Teachings for our benefit to help mankind live in a better way with each other afterall we all come from the same source.  Whether you believe in Adam and Eve or whether you believe we come from green algae - we have all come from the same souce initially God Himself - for without His Word none of this would be in existence anyway.

Man V God

 

When I look at the political arena today, it makes me shudder to consider there is very few people in power that really understand the meaning of "working for the people" they all appear to me to be very selfishly minded - what can I get out of it.  I can remember when Tony Blair came to power in the UK we all considered him to a potentially a great ally to the people - or so we thought - when he left office he was richer than he started.

When we look at the heads of State world wide we can see the same pattern happening time and time again.

God warned Israel through Samuel when they demanded to have a King like all the other nations that the "king" would be demanding taxes, payments for this and that, taking the land off the people, making people slaves to their industrial way of doing things all the way through history you can see the same story, nation after nation whether it be republican, democratic, dictatorship, communist, socialist they all have the same thing happening at the top - "What can we get out here before we are removed" one way and another you only have to look at the newspapers to see the same o same o.  With dictators demanding their country men obey their rules or else.  You democratic leaders who also behave like dictators only with a much better smile (ha ha). 

We can see that the pattern of each Government is the same. It does not matter what the  leader stands for - which type of government it is all the same - man believing he can make decisions to change the course of history on his own sweet self.

I have got news for you - YOU - MAN cant make anything happen without God's intervention.  Whether it be wars - this is all laid out very plainly in the Bible just how much influence God has on Mankind - however mankind is so blinded by Self - Awareness - and believing that they are gods. 

Whenever I look into the Word of God and see just how much in every generation God had his hand on everything that happened.  You can look at the story of Moses how when God sent Moses back to Egypt to call His people out - Israel and those that stood with Israel and wanted to be a part of what God had to offer - they could see the best side to be on especially after the plagues hit Eqypt - the frogs, the blood in the water, the diseases, the hail and lightening, locust, the famines.

Today, worldwide we can see the same things happening, the famines, the floods, the diseases, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes - do you not think that someone is trying to wake mankind up to show them that there is much more involved on this planet that just "little of man" and his ideals.

Mankind has been given the great gift of all the gift of LIFE itself - Yeshua said that there is only one way back to the Father and that is through Him Yeshua (Jesus Christ) the son of the Living God - this is not some diety which someone has dreamed up this is God - the Almighty Creator of the Universe I am talking about.  I do not go to church because I do not find the Almighty Creator there, I do not belong to any group I am walking with Yeshua with the Word of God, learning from Him and from History - His Story - the Story of Mankind which is clearly depicted in the Word of God (the Bible).

Politicians of old all though the Word of God challenged God and tried to rule over their people with their own ideals but it came to nothing - in fact you can look back in history yourself and see what happens to nations that came up against God and lost - they are lost to history for eternity.  There is but a few nations that have been chosen by God to last the course of History - Israel, Egypt these are but two that have the longest history in all mankind.  God has always played a big role in world events - both in the past and now and also in the future.  For God specifically says that if the people of Egypt do not come up to Israel when God is sitting on the Throne in Israel then they will suffer draughts in their land and their annual flooding will cease and all nations that refuse or challenge God in any way will have the rain stopped over their lands.  This my friends is in Revelations and in the book of Zechariah so I can be assured that God does know his business.

Look what he did in History with Sodom and Gomorrah when they challenged God - they were completely decimated - nothing grows where they were - just as God had said.

We can look at the archaeology and geology of the world and we can just how many civilisations have already been lost to time.  God is the creator of Time and He knows just how long each so called "civilisation" will last - who will be in power for how long.

You can look at the Roman and Greek Empires and even in our own time the United Kingdom's Empire which had been great has slowly but surely been diminishing over the past 100 years, when Queen Victoria was in power it was a mighty nation - now is it a lot less than former times, USA thinking itself a Superpower of the years has also diminished in stature. 

We must ask ourselves these questions - WHO ACTUALLY IS IN POWER - God has allowed Satan dominion over mankind because mankind choose to disregard God and His powers.

God of the Universe who created us out of the dust of this planet is well able to turn us all back to dust just like when the comet hit the earth and wiped out the dinosaurs - we cannot argue with that because there is scientific fossilised evidence this occurred.  When we look at the planets history of its birth and growing pains until we mankind were given the right to live on it and were given the commission to take care of it - DO WE -Oh man how small we are in comparison to what God can do.

Yes we have managed to conquer the skies - but look at how many people die in the process of these discoveries - the birds do not have such a death toll - perhaps we should look again at how well they do. 

Look at the way fish swim in the sea they do not have the disasters we do with our submarines - the loss of life in the pursuit of some goal or other - whether it be looking for the enemy - who is the enemy - yourself man. 

Because we do not see ourselves as God sees us - we are created in his own image - and therefore if each one of us world wide has been created in the same image whether we are black, white, Chinese, Japanese or Brazilian or whatever nationality you may be we are all from the same Father - the Creator of the Universe.  Surely just by knowing this and understanding that we are all brothers and sisters - it is such a shame that we treat each other as enemies - Yeshua (Jesus) said we are to pray for our enemies - and love them - that way we can be sure that they will have deal with their own conscience as to whether we should kill or be killed.  God gave one of His Commandments - You shall not commit murder - is not killing your enemy a form of murder - When we send our men in to battle are we not also sending them to commit murder in the name of the nations that they are from -

For me - it is utter foolishness that man should go about killing himself - there is only but one destination for such actions - DEATH AND DESTRUCTION and the ETERNAL HELL for those that perpetrate this action - it is not the men on the ground that are the ones ot blame it is the ones in their offices planning and conniving and scheming how to betray a fellow human being out of its resources - whether there is any worth in the land that they are sending the men to - on the pretext of some war or disagreement - the disagreement start in the offices of politicians not with the ordinary people living in the places about to be blown up or being blown up in the name of "peace" whose "peace" are they speaking about.  Gods peace comes from obeying his commandments and following his teachings and learning to live in peace with your neighbour as you would want them to live in peace with yourself.

It is such a shame that man has allowed himself to be blinded by "religion" going to war in the name of "their god"

The God of the Bible when He calls for people to go into battle he gives them clear instructions - when David was to go to battle he was told by God to choose those men that God had selected to to go with him   History shows that David won his battle with his neighbour king with only 300 men.  This was after God had cut David's army of 900 men which had volunteered to go with him.  It makes you wonder just who is in control in power in the nations today.  We are a foolish species, we are the only ones that will go and kill another group of men in battle over a piece of land with weapons that can either blind, maim, disembowel, even blow parts of the body off, we can kill to order and we do not think anything wrong with it.  Yes in the animal kingdom they kill to eat and to protect their territory - but they only use the weapons they were given by God in the first place.  We being man believe that we can use whatever weapon we can against ourselves - and it to ourselves we can only look to blame for the way the planet has gone. 

We destroy everything we touch, with our machines, our chemicals, even the food is becoming contaminated with our so called modern approach to animal husbandry - we are a sorry lot indeed, no wonder God decided when in the days of Noah he chose to wipe out all living things except those few that God had selected to start the human race again - it is incredible that we do not seem to learn from History at all.

No wonder Yeshua ( Jesus) said that as the days of Noah so shall my coming be - watch out that you are not caught sleeping because Yeshua is coming for certainty whether in my lifetime or yours - He is coming and He will rule this earth as He said he would with his commandments, teachings and anyone failing to obey will be punished - they will also be given the chance to repent and return to Gods ways of living and learning to live in peace with one another - for me that cannot come soon enough.

Learning to live Gods ways has been a real challenge over the years discovering just how much God has done for us as human-beings - breathing life into us, bringing us through to this stage in His Story - watching in anticipation of the next Big Move of God is what I am doing.  Reading His Word asking for Him to direct my feet and fingers to help those to understand just how powerful God is.

Who is man the God is mindful of him?
That is question that was posed by a fellow human being who suffered just in the same way we do today, with doubts, fears.  Yet David understood that God loved him and would take care of him, even though

When Yeshua was on the cross and looked over the people and felt deep sorrow at his creation standing before him yet not realising who he really is.  When we look in the Word we can see clearly that He is the Word made Flesh and he was dwelling amongst us - breathing the same air and living in the same way as his fellow human-beings yet he was more than that.  This great God of the Universe choose to send His beloved Son into our presence knowing full well before hand what was to become of him because of our misconduct and disobedience, God gave us a chance to repent and return to Him to see in Yeshua (Jesus) the true Salvation of the universe - for without Him there is no way to salvation - no other way will do except through Yeshua (Jesus)  God made that abundantly clear - for without the precious blood of Yeshua (Jesus) the Lamb of God who was slain for us would we even have an opportunity to be saved from OURSELVES -

We are on the bring of self annihilation and we blindly lead each other to the precipice in our ignorance and pride - we who are a little lower than the angels that are in the Court of God looking down on us watching our every movement even they know that the time is coming when the Trumpet will be sounded - make yourself ready - watch and pray - learn from God that His handiwork is being shown in all the universe - no man can do anything without God first allows it even Herod could not have Yeshua put to death with out it being in the plans of God.

So when you read this and wonder why I am saying this, I am certain of one thing hopefully it will inspire you to seek Gods face for his teaching and His love to surround you and save you from what is going to be coming on the earth. 

WE are slowly yet surely moving to the end of times when all things are going to be revealed - all truths of the planet and history will slowly be unfurled before your very eyes.

When I look in the history and do my research into the historical facts of the Bible I am amazed just how ungrateful mankind is and so blind to his ways and teachings - in just a few centuries after the first Disciple who walked with Yeshua and were taught the same as Yeshua the commandments and teachings in the scriptures - the books of the prophets - it amazes me that people still want to continue in the path of "religion" and not to seek the Face of the Creator of the Universe.  Ecclesiastes made it very clear at the end of his teaching and his learning that the best thing man could do in his life is to Seek the God of the Universe and obey His commandments - in this way it is the way to Peace on this earth - and the restoration of all things - this is Gods promise to Mankind. 

Which way do you want to go?

Seek God and His teachings - Follow the Word of God and What he says !
Or do you want to continue in the path of self destruction - with a heavy heart, depressed, filled with fear and stressing about your next meal, next job, whether you will have the money in the morning for your bus ride to your job - whether you will be able find the time to walk with your family, talk with your family. 

It does not matter what you beliefs are just think about what I have said.  I am not trying to convert you or anything, just wanting to challenge you to recognise who you are in the scheme of life.  You are important to God - he has a plan for your life - or do you just think that it is all a waste of time.

For me even to sit here writing this for you to read - you could consider it to be a waste of time, for me it is a way to reach out and say to people wake up and start to set your self in order before it is too late.  God will have his way on this earth - God of Israel will prevail over all - no matter whether you are Greek, Muslim or whatever God is in Control - And He designated each time for each era of this planet - but ultimately God will reign in Jerusalem as His special bride and his place he has chosen to live - hence all humanity will be very aware that God is on the Throne in Jerusalem when all the dust has settled and all that has to be has come to pass - God will be in Israel ruling with His Commandments and His Teachings and His holy days and His harvests. 

Who are we to argue with the God of Creation - who is able to wipe us out with out even thinking about it, think of Noah, think of the dinosaurs, think we are no different to them.  We are not bigger than God - God is bigger than us.

He is the Supreme Being of the Universe, He is the Beginning and End of all things.  He knows how long the sun with shine in the universe, he knows how old each planet, star is that he has created.

When he called Abraham out of Ur and told him that all nations would be blessed because of Him - for out of Abraham all nations are blessed because of his faithfulness to God for his Story is the beginning of man walking and talking with God of the Universe.

Looking back in Genesis is an amazing place because here we see that man once man and God walked together in the Garden - with a close relationship of this nature it is such a shame that they choose to disobey God - so he had to turn them out of the garden where he no longer walked with them and He allowed mankind to each find his own way - it is only when Eve gave birth to Seth and he in turn gave birth to Enoch do we see that Man turns back to God and calls on His name Adonai and really when man starts to walk with God he is able to supply all our needs - he is able keep us fit and healthy, free from sickness and disease, - you can see evidence of this when you look at the journey of Moses through the desert before they came into the promised land - they were cared for by God by his provision of food and water - for those that are faithful God will provide all their needs.  I have experienced this in my own life and know it to be true.  He protected them from their enemies when those around them were jealous of what they had, the nations around about them were frightened because they knew that God was walking with Israel while she obeyed God.  They were frightened because God would make it clear that when Israel obeyed He would give them the victory - when Israel became like other nations following after their own paths they were then separated from the God of Israel and were led in to slavery and captivity - this is very clear to me that when we come to God with a repentant heart and acknowledge our unbelief and turn to him for help in our darkest hours He is there for us and he will turn our captivity into freedom and peace - is that not what all men want.
