  • Repentance

    A gift. Jesus bids us repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand, He also bids us repent, for otherwise we shall perish. [Matthew 4:17 KJV] From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. [Luke 13:1 KJV] There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. [Luke 13:2 KJV] And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things? [Luke 13:3 KJV] I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. [Luke 13:4 KJV] Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem? [Luke 13:5 KJV] I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Repent = acknowledge you have sinned & done wrong before our Creator Adonai/YWH/God. Turn away from that sin, for the Lord knows a contrite heart.❤️ [Luke 15:7 KJV] I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. [Luke 15:10 KJV] Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. For out of repentance comes a gift 🙏♥️🌈🐏🔥🎶✝️ [Acts 2:38 KJV] Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

  • Conviction

    [John 3:20 KJV] For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. The Comforter, The Holy Spirit, The Spirit of Truth, The Ruach Ha-Kodesh reproves....... [John 16:8 KJV] And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: [John 16:9 KJV] Of sin, because they believe not on me; [John 16:10 KJV] Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; [John 16:11 KJV] Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

  • Which is Worse?

    Rejection or Deception of Christ? To reject, then repent & acknowledge Jesus Christ, we have all done. To falsely agree & never come to repentance & acknowledgement is an eternal death sentence. [Matthew 21:28 KJV] But what think ye? A [certain] man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard. [Matthew 21:29 KJV] He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went. [Matthew 21:30 KJV] And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I [go], sir: and went not. [Matthew 21:31 KJV] Whether of them twain did the will of [his] father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you. [Matthew 21:32 KJV] For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen [it], repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.

  • My Temple

    Jesus Christ brought about the Temple with his Death, Burial & Resurrection to enable believers in him to House the Holy Spirit in their bodies. What was important in the Old Testament is that Jesus Christ fulfilled the writings of King David & King Solomon in the New Testament. The Lord speaks to King David about his legacy. [1Ki 8:18 KJV] 18 And the LORD said unto David my father, Whereas it was in thine heart to build an house unto my name, thou didst well that it was in thine heart. [1Ki 8:19 KJV] 19 Nevertheless thou shalt not build the house; but thy son that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house unto my name. Likewise , that Solomon being from his Father David ,built the temple for the Lord. [2Ch 6:8 KJV] 8 But the LORD said to David my father, Forasmuch as it was in thine heart to build an house for my name, thou didst well in that it was in thine heart: [2Ch 6:9 KJV] 9 Notwithstanding thou shalt not build the house; but thy son which shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house for my name. Jesus explains the Temple. [John 2:19 NKJV] Jesus answered and said to them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” [John 2:20 NKJV] Then the Jews said, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?” [John 2:21 NKJV] But He was speaking of the temple of His body. [John 10:23 NKJV] And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon’s porch. [1 Corinthians 3:16 NKJV] Do you not know that you are the temple of God and [that] the Spirit of God dwells in you? [1 Corinthians 3:17 NKJV] If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which [temple] you are. [1 Corinthians 6:19 NKJV] Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit [who is] in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?

  • Rosh Hashana

    God's Jewish New Year This is a celebration of: The Feast of Trumpets The Day of Atonement The Feast of Tabernacles This is an opportunity to give & be blessed according to the Word of the Lord. It starts on the 1st day of the Seventh Month = Tishri in the Hebrew calendar. It leads us into 10 days of ave.(10 days of repentance that leads us up to the day of Atonement) This year 2022 , it starts on 25th September. The day of Atonement on October 5th.After the day of Atonement starts 7 days of the feast of Tabernacles. It is a time of Victory for believers.🙏❤️ During the Feast of Trumpets , Atonement & Tabernacles God wants you to be ready to repent. Repentance is what the Lord is calling for , from John the Baptist , Jeremiah, Isaiah, Joel - every prophet calls for the admission of sin from your soul & turning away from it. Jesus preached repentance. God calls for repentance in "all" the Old Testament (Tanakh) The Torah - the 1st five books of the OT is the law. This reflects the Word given to Moses. Two silver trumpets are blown on the feast of Trumpets. Inscribed on one is: "Peace of God in the camp of the Holy One" Inscribed on the other is: "God's battle formation against the sons of darkness" These inscriptions were confirmed in the dead sea scrolls. Although you are Born again & you love the Lord , there are still obstacles in your way you can't seem to overcome.... An offering unto the Lord with passion (fire 🔥🔥) is what is right & just. Much like the fire you felt for Jesus when you were Born again. This feels right as a Jew of the heart. Honour our Lord & Saviour Jesus Christ in this time. For he is in the Father & the Father is in him. 🙏❤️🔥✝️🎶🌈🐏 [Romans 2:29 KJV] But he [is] a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision [is that] of the heart, in the spirit, [and] not in the letter; whose praise [is] not of men, but of God. OT Scripture referencing Rosh Hashana The Feast of Trumpets [Leviticus 23:23 KJV] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, [Leviticus 23:24 KJV] Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first [day] of the month, shall ye have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation. [Leviticus 23:25 KJV] Ye shall do no servile work [therein]: but ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD. The Day of Atonement [Leviticus 23:26 KJV] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, [Leviticus 23:27 KJV] Also on the tenth [day] of this seventh month [there shall be] a day of atonement: it shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD. [Leviticus 23:28 KJV] And ye shall do no work in that same day: for it [is] a day of atonement, to make an atonement for you before the LORD your God. [Leviticus 23:29 KJV] For whatsoever soul [it be] that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut off from among his people. The Feast of Tabernacles [Leviticus 23:33 KJV] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, [Leviticus 23:34 KJV] Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month [shall be] the feast of tabernacles [for] seven days unto the LORD. [Leviticus 23:35 KJV] On the first day [shall be] an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work [therein]. [Leviticus 23:36 KJV] Seven days ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: it [is] a solemn assembly; [and] ye shall do no servile work [therein]. https://youtu.be/qOo5szU2nFU

  • Christianity a smooth flight?

    Many are told by Preachers that if you come to Christ, everything will be "rosy" Christianity does not offer a smooth flight, but a safe landing. Coming to Christ is the 1st step , then comes the shedding of the World's ways. You "will" have a target on your back for darkness. But fear not the Lord is with you 🙏♥️ [John 15:18 KJV] If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before [it hated] you. [John 15:19 KJV] If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. [1 John 2:15 NKJV] Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. [1 John 2:16 NKJV] For all that [is] in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. [1 John 3:13 NKJV] Do not marvel, my brethren, if the world hates you. [Hebrews 13:5 NKJV] [Let your] conduct [be] without covetousness; [be] content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” [Hebrews 9:28 NKJV] so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.

  • Fasting & Prayer for protection

    The hand of the Lord was on King Artaxerxes. He allowed Ezra to journey from Babylon to Jerusalem with his blessings & wealth to offer to the Lord God of Jerusalem. [Ezra 7:13 NKJV] I issue a decree that all those of the people of Israel and the priests and Levites in my realm, who volunteer to go up to Jerusalem, may go with you. Ezra gathered together Heads of the Families, Servants for the Temple, what a great responsibility was laid upon him. But he still humbled himself....... [Ezra 8:21 NKJV] Then I proclaimed a fast there at the river of Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek from Him the right way for us and our little ones and all our possessions. Ezra spoke the statement below to King Artaxerxes, so he couldn't therefore ask for the King's protection as they traversed through hostile lands to Jerusalem. What a proclamation of faith by Ezra. [Ezra 8:22 NKJV] “The hand of our God is upon all those for good who seek Him, but His power and His wrath are against all those who forsake Him.” His answer for protection? [Ezra 8:23 NKJV] So we fasted and entreated our God for this, and He answered our prayer.

  • Society & Depression

    Why is depression such a pervasive force in contemporary society? Why do so many who seem to have all they could want choose to end their own lives? Why is it that with all the technological advances of the past generation, depression and dissatisfaction continue to rule the hearts and minds of the vast majority? The answer is clear-the source of real satisfaction and overcoming depression is a strong, abiding, personal relationship with a loving and merciful heavenly Father. No technology ever developed, no amount of money, no amount of recognition or prestige, no device or drug designed by man can ever take the place of knowing God. I am convinced that much of the depression among people in our society is directly traceable to a deep spiritual void in their lives-a void that only the Lord himself can fill. The philosopher Pascal called it "a God-shaped vacuum in every man." How to receive your heart’s desires Psalm 37 is a rich passage of Scripture, written by David during a time when he was struggling with depression. He wrote: [Psalm 37:4 NKJV] Delight yourself also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. [Psalm 37:5 NKJV] Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring [it] to pass. Contained in those short phrases is the answer to depression: Delight thyself...in the Lord. They also reveal a wonderful promise that deals with the challenge of dissatisfaction: He shall give thee the desires of thine heart.❤️❤️

  • Are you Captive ?

    I were faced with a question. Why does God never help amputees? What came to mind was the journey of Job. Job faced much loss of family & wealth as a devout follower of the Lord. Job was in much physical & emotional pain by what had happened to him. Job questioned God. [Job 31:4 KJV] Doth not he see my ways, and count all my steps? After Jobs friends were counseling him on why he had suffered (saying he had done much wrong in the eyes of the Lord) The Lord spoke up about all of them. [Job 38:1 KJV] Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said, [Job 38:2 KJV] Who [is] this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? The Lord declared that which was spoken by Eliphaz, Bildad & Zophar was folly. The Lord then declares his Creation before Job & asks him to respond. ( Job 38-41) [Job 38:3 KJV] Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me. [Job 38:4 KJV] Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding. [Job 38:5 KJV] Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it? [Job 38:18 KJV] Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all. [Job 38:25 KJV] Who hath divided a watercourse for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder; [Job 38:31 KJV] Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion? The Lord , spoke to Job & counseled him , "Did you create all Heaven & Earth?" (paraphrasing) (Job 38-41) Job was still righteous in the Lord's eyes, he had suffered much loss , & pain but never once did he lose his faith in God. He pleaded , he spoke , he implored , he submitted, he worshiped the Lord but never gave in to the captivity of Satan. Even Jobs friends who rebuked him for doing wrong in the eyes of the Lord, were abased. The Lord told them to repent, for their folly. [Job 42:7 KJV] And it was [so], that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me [the thing that is] right, as my servant Job [hath]. The Lord removed Job's captivity when he prayed for his friends, even though he was in a terrible state himself. [Job 42:10 KJV] And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before. [Job 42:11 KJV] Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold. [Job 42:12 KJV] So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses. As the Lord spoke to Isaiah the prophet also....... [Isaiah 55:8 KJV] For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the LORD. [Isaiah 55:9 KJV] For [as] the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. Jesus Christ of Nazareth the only begotten Son of God said: [Matthew 5:45 KJV] That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. May we all cleave to Jesus Christ during our times of Good & Bad 🙏❤️

  • Salvation

    Salvation in Christ Jesus of Nazareth is not complicated. Its easy as ABC. (the Lord knows a contrite heart) Admit: Admit you can't do it on your own , as much as the World teaches us to be prideful & find a way. You cannot get to heaven on your own. Believe: Believe that Jesus Christ died on the Cross for your sins , a painful & horrible death , for you , he was a spotless unblemished Lamb who knew no wrong. Confess: That Jesus Christ is your Lord & Saviour of your life. The Lord knows the comings & goings of the heart , also he knows who his children are from the beginning of time. [John 10:27 NKJV] “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. https://youtu.be/lcj5G_4dwrI
