24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.


Psalm 22

King James Version (KJV)
22 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?
O my God, I cry in the day time, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.
But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
He trusted on the Lord that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts.
10 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly.
11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.
12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.
14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.
17 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.
18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
19 But be not thou far from me, O Lord: O my strength, haste thee to help me.
20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.
21 Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.
22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.
23 Ye that fear the Lord, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.
24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.
25 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the Lord that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.
27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the Lord: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.
28 For the kingdom is the Lord's: and he is the governor among the nations.
29 All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.
30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.
31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.

5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.

Peace,


I would like to share with you a verse in Psalm 22:5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.


Did you ever feel Yahuah had forsaken you? Yahshua did. We must never forget the promise Yahuah gave to us. HE told us HE will never leave us nor forsake us.


 The enemy tries to come to us and whisper in our ear that Yahuah has left us and we are on our own. That our fight is our own. This is a LIE. Our flesh will try so hard to break us down to leave us feeling lost and empty. 


Yahushua is our living saviour. Do you believe this? Do you believe that while you and I were still sinners and doing our own thing our own way that Yahushua saved us before we even knew HIM from the pit of hell? 


While I was still living my life excluding Yah and not knowing the true Yahushua I had many experiences and later said I should have died. Had I died at that time I would have suffered all eternity in hell. Why? Because I did not KNOW Yahushua and I did not believe in the power of HIS blood shed for me. 


It was not until seven years ago that I picked up my cross and followed my Saviour. I do it to the best of my ability. I have a changed mind and heart. I wait upon Yahuah. I die daily to my flesh. Is this something I could do on my own? No. I need all the help I can. I pray for Yahuah's grace and mercy daily. I ask that my feet be directed where our heavenly Father wants them. I repent and follow HIS commands. 


Father hears us my friends. HE knows our needs before we ask. Our reward it not here on earth. Yahushua said, “19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” (Matthew 6:19-21)


Is Yahushua speaking of just money in the above verses? No. HE is speaking to us about all our possessions.  HE is speaking of your homes, cars, boats, pensions,  money saved in the bank and so on. If we are looking for our reward here on earth and not in heaven then that's where we shall receive it. Where ever/ whatever  you consider your "treasure"  to be than that is where your heart will be. 

About five years ago Father spoke these words to me, "SELL YOUR HOUSE"  my husband and I did. Then I heard,"SELL YOUR POSSESSIONS" we did.  We obeyed the Father because that is where our heart is. Is your heart with HIM? It was not hard giving up our home and possessions. Actually it gave us great peace. Amen. We trusted in our Father and HE provided. We cried unto HIM and HE answered.

I would like to share with you a situation that came before me about five years ago. I learned of a large sum of money that would be awarded to victims of a terrorist attack in 1983. I being associated with one of those victims was declared by a judge to be compensated for emotional damages. There is much to this story but I will keep it brief. I declined to receive any amount of the money. There were personal reasons but MOST importantly I received in my Spirit not to participate as this compensation was not of our Father. I trusted in HIM and the words spoken forth. I prayed and HE answered my prayers. I am already seeing negative effects of this money which has not even been awarded yet. I now know my prayers were answered. 

I cried unto HIM and He heard my prayers and answered them. I trusted in our Father and HE delivered me. 
In Yahushua with love,
Cassie

That Great Gettin Up Mornin Fare Thee Well

52 Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. 2 Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion. 3 For thus saith the Lord, Ye have sold yourselves for nought; and ye shall be redeemed without money. 4 For thus saith the Lord God, My people went down aforetime into Egypt to sojourn there; and the Assyrian oppressed them without cause. 5 Now therefore, what have I here, saith the Lord, that my people is taken away for nought? they that rule over them make them to howl, saith the Lord; and my name continually every day is blasphemed. 6 Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I. 7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! 8 Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord shall bring again Zion. 9 Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem: for the Lord hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem. 10 The Lord hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. 11 Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the Lord. 12 For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight: for the Lord will go before you; and the God of Israel will be your reward. 13 Behold, my servant shall deal prudently, he shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high. 14 As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men: 15 So shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not been told them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they consider.


52 Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.
Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.
For thus saith the Lord, Ye have sold yourselves for nought; and ye shall be redeemed without money.
For thus saith the Lord God, My people went down aforetime into Egypt to sojourn there; and the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.
Now therefore, what have I here, saith the Lord, that my people is taken away for nought? they that rule over them make them to howl, saith the Lord; and my name continually every day is blasphemed.
Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I.
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!
Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when theLord shall bring again Zion.
Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem: for the Lord hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem.
10 The Lord hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.
11 Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the Lord.
12 For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight: for the Lord will go before you; and the God of Israel will be your reward.
13 Behold, my servant shall deal prudently, he shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high.
14 As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men:
15 So shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not been told them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they consider.

Ecclesiastes 6 King James Version (KJV) 6 There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men: 2 A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honour, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger eateth it: this is vanity, and it is an evil disease.

Peace,


Folks, I am not one to get involved with the affairs of this evil world. However, I am bringing this to YOUR attention and ask that you bring it to our heavenly Father. This should be an eye opener for those who still slumber. Please watch.

4 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with his staff in his hand for very age. 5 And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.

Zechariah 8

King James Version (KJV)
Again the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying,
Thus saith the Lord of hosts; I was jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I was jealous for her with great fury.
Thus saith the Lord; I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and the mountain of the Lord of hosts the holy mountain.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts; There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with his staff in his hand for very age.
And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts; If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days, should it also be marvellous in mine eyes? saith the Lord of hosts.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Behold, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country;
And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words by the mouth of the prophets, which were in the day that the foundation of the house of the Lord of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built.
10 For before these days there was no hire for man, nor any hire for beast; neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the affliction: for I set all men every one against his neighbour.
11 But now I will not be unto the residue of this people as in the former days, saith the Lord of hosts.
12 For the seed shall be prosperous; the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things.
13 And it shall come to pass, that as ye were a curse among the heathen, O house of Judah, and house of Israel; so will I save you, and ye shall be a blessing: fear not, but let your hands be strong.
14 For thus saith the Lord of hosts; As I thought to punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, saith the Lordof hosts, and I repented not:
15 So again have I thought in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: fear ye not.
16 These are the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates:
17 And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith the Lord.
18 And the word of the Lord of hosts came unto me, saying,
19 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts; therefore love the truth and peace.
20 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities:
21 And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the Lord, and to seek the Lord of hosts: I will go also.
22 Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord.
23 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.

(4) Blessed are those who mourn, For they shall be comforted.


 Matthew 5:4

(4) Blessed are those who mourn, For they shall be comforted.

New King James Version   Change Bible versions
When Jesus gives this beatitude, He does not say, "Blessed are those that have mourned" but "Blessed are those who mourn." He states it as a present and continuous experience. Repentance is not a one-time experience, nor does human nature, "the old man," simply disappear after we receive the new nature. Christianity involves a continuous learning and growing process. We are not instantly created in the image of God by fiat. God has decreed that we must live by faith, and that requires time and experience. We are created in the image of God through the fires of life's sorrows and adversities, as well as its joys. Even of our Savior, Isaiah writes, "He is despised and rejected by men, a Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief" (Isaiah 53:3). Paul adds,
Who, in the days of His flesh, when He had offered up prayers and supplications, with vehement cries and tears to Him who was able to save Him from death, and was heard because of His godly fear, though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered. (Hebrews 5:7-8)
The Christian is one whose mind is attuned to God's through an ever-deepening relationship. He has much to mourn over because the sins he commits—both of omission and commission—are a daily sense of grief and will remain so as long as his conscience stays tender. A tender conscience becomes hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. An active and growing relationship with God will lead to an enhanced discovery of human nature's depravity because God will faithfully reveal the massive gulf between Hisholiness and our corrupt and ever-polluting heart. He will make us conscious of the distance and coldness of our love, the surges of pride and doubt, and the lack of fruit we produce.

29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.


Romans 8

King James Version (KJV)
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
24 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?
25 But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.
26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
32 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?
33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.
34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

18 Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O Lord, and that the foolish people have blasphemed thy name.


Psalm 74

King James Version (KJV)
74 O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?
Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old; the rod of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed; this mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt.
Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations; even all that the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.
Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their ensigns for signs.
A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees.
But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and hammers.
They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled by casting down the dwelling place of thy name to the ground.
They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.
We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.
10 O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever?
11 Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck it out of thy bosom.
12 For God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the earth.
13 Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of the dragons in the waters.
14 Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, and gavest him to be meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness.
15 Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou driedst up mighty rivers.
16 The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.
17 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter.
18 Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O Lord, and that the foolish people have blasphemed thy name.
19 O deliver not the soul of thy turtledove unto the multitude of the wicked: forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever.
20 Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty.
21 O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise thy name.
22 Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee daily.
23 Forget not the voice of thine enemies: the tumult of those that rise up against thee increaseth continually.

The Daily Sacrifice

Peace,


    The study below moved my Spirit greatly. The below is only the beginning please read the rest if led to by Abba Father. Amen.





What exactly is this daily sacrifice spoken of
in Daniel 12? 
What does scripture mean when it says that
‘the daily sacrifice shall be taken away’?
Daniel 12:9 tells us that these words in the
book of Daniel “are closed up and sealed till
the time of the end”. 
It is now time to understand!
4Chapter 1
Daily Sacrifices
The Old Testament discusses two daily sacrifices which
were required offerings as part of the correct worship of
God: one in the morning and one in the evening. There
are a number of scriptures which talk about these sacrifices, but
for the purposes of this example it would be sufficient to refer
to only a few of them. Notice what is stated in 2 Kings 16:


“And king Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest,
saying, Upon the great altar burn the  morning
burnt offering, and the  evening meat offering,
and  the  king's  burnt  sacrifice,  and  his  meat
offering,  with  the  burnt  offering  of  all  the
people of the land, and their meat offering, and
their drink offerings; and sprinkle upon it all the
blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of
the sacrifice: and the brasen altar shall be for me
to  enquire  by. Thus  did  Urijah  the  priest,
according to all that king Ahaz commanded” (2
Kings 16:15-16). 
The  book  of  1  Chronicles  also  discusses  two  daily
sacrifices:
“And  Zadok  the  priest,  and  his  brethren  the
priests, before the tabernacle of the LORD in
the high place that was at Gibeon, To offer burnt
offerings unto the LORD upon the altar of the
burnt  offering continually morning  and
evening,  and  to  do according  to  all  that  is
written  in  the  law  of  the  LORD,  which  he
commanded Israel” (1 Chron. 16:39-40).
   5The word “continual” in verse 40 comes from the Hebrew
word  “tamiyd”  and  could  be translated  as:  “continuance…
constant (or  adverbially  constantly);  elipitically  the  regular
daily  sacrifice:  always,  continual,  daily,  perpetual”.  The
continual  morning and evening sacrifices are to be  constant,
regular  daily sacrifices which must be performed  perpetually,
or throughout our generations; forever. This is what scripture
clearly  indicates!  To  fulfill  the  obligation  of  morning  and
evening daily sacrifices throughout  our generations, morning
and evening sacrifices must be offered to God – even today!
Notice the permanency of this obligation in 2 Chronicles: 
“Behold, I build an house to the name of the
Lord  my  God, to  dedicate  it to  him…  sweet
incense …morning and evening...  This  is an
ordinance for ever to Israel” (2 Chron. 2:4). 
Evidently, two sacrifices are to be offered to God daily -
even today: one in the morning and another in the evening.
Again:
“And they burn unto the LORD every morning
and every evening burnt sacrifices and  sweet
incense” (2 Chron. 13:11). 
Daily sacrifices?
An  obvious  and  important  question  should  immediately
jump to mind: What kind of daily sacrifices do we need to
offer, morning and evening, to fulfill our obligation towards
God of sacrifices and sweet incense? Let us allow scriptures in
the New Testament to answer this question:
“Ye  also,  as  lively  stones,  are  built  up  a
spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up
spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus
Christ” (1 Pet. 2:5). 
6Scripture tells us that God’s Church is a  spiritual house
which is made up of lively stones. As lively stones forming
God’s Church, we are to offer up spiritual sacrifices! God’s
people are no longer required to offer physical burnt sacrifices,
but  spiritual sacrifices. [More on this later]. Scripture clearly
states that these sacrifices must be acceptable to God if they are
to correctly fulfill our spiritual obligation.
“By him therefore let us offer  the sacrifice of
praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of
our  lips  giving  thanks  to  his  name”  (Heb.
13:15). 
Hebrews 13:5 gets more specific as to the spiritual daily
sacrifices required of God’s people. However, there are more
scriptures that clarify this further:
“And  when  he  had  taken  the  book,  the  four
beasts  and  four  and twenty  elders  fell  down
before  the  Lamb,  having  every  one  of  them
harps, and golden vials full of odours
G2368
 [2368
= incense],  which are the prayers of saints”
(Rev. 5:8)
“And another angel came and stood at the altar,
having  a  golden  censer;  and  there  was  given
unto  him  much  incense
G2368
,  that  he  should
offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the
golden altar which was before the throne. And
the smoke of the incense
G2368
, which came with
the  prayers of the saints, ascended up before
God out of the angel's hand” (Rev. 8:3-4). 
Evidently,  the  spiritual  sacrifices  God’s  people  must
offer twice a day are prayers to God, our Heavenly Father.
When scripture discusses God’s people offering the continual,
or daily sacrifices, it is referring to spiritual prayers offered to
God by His people. These are the daily sacrifices we must be
   7offering as a tool which accompanies the work done in getting
ourselves ready as the bride of Christ and to deliver God’s
message.  Old  Testament  scriptures  demonstrate  that  only
God’s priests were to perform the daily sacrifices, twice a day,
morning and evening. This places an important emphasis and
responsibility on God’s priests today, but certainly includes all
of God’s people in the New Testament Church (Eph. 2:18;
Rom.  5:1-2).  AS  GOD’S  PEOPLE  WE  MUST  TODAY
PERFORM  SACRIFICES,  twice  a day,  which  in  this  New
Testament era consists of offering acceptable prayers to God:
“But I have all, and abound: I am full, having
received of Epaphroditus the things which were
sent from you,  an odour of a  sweet smell,  a
sacrifice  acceptable,  wellpleasing  to  God”
(Phil. 4:18). 
Notice the following New Testament example:
“I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers
with  pure  conscience,  that  without  ceasing  I
have remembrance of thee in my prayers night
and day” (2 Tim. 1:3). 
(Please also see Lk. 2:37 and 1 Tim. 5:5).

Mary cannot save you, saints cannot save you, statues cannot save you, priests cannot save you, pastors cannot save you, your brothers and sisters in Yahshua cannot save you. There is only ONE who can save you. That is Yahshua alone.

Peace,


     I would like to revisit something that is very heavy on my heart and needs to be seen again and heard. 


My dear friends, we must have a true relationship with our Father. Yah should be first on our minds in the morning and last at night. We must commune with HIM throughout the day. We can do this through prayer and fellowship and of course the living word. 


When you meet someone for the first time you listen to them speak you ask them questions and you begin slowly to get to know them. As time goes on you notice that you are learning more and more about this person. Why? Because you are spending time with them. You are asking more questions and they are sharing more of themselves with you. 


My friends, we experience a deep understanding and relationship while trying to get to KNOW Yah and HIS Son Yahshua. We must take the time to ask, seek and knock. There are many that don't read the living word and they go to church buildings to get to know Yahshua. Well, I have been there done that and the only thing I learned was lies. Yah literally called me out. HE said, "COME OUT OF HER" I left the religious system that day.


Friends, Mary cannot save you, saints cannot save you, statues cannot save you, priests cannot save you, pastors cannot save you, your brothers and sisters in Yahshua cannot save you. There is only ONE who can save you. That is Yahshua alone. HE is the truth, the way and the life. There is no other. 


My friends many people attend church services weekly thinking they are growing closer and closer to Yah yet they are still taking notes and feel no closer to Yahshua today then the day they stepped into the building. Yahshua is NOT in any building folks. No, He does not dwell amongst the dead but the living. 


While in the church I was never taught about the true Messiah. I was never taught to read the living word. I was never taught true repentance or true forgiveness. No, I was taught every week the same thing. It was the same script with a different cast every week.


I heard the same thing over and over and waited patiently to learn something yet nothing ever came UNTIL the day Yah called me out. HalleluYAH!!


I ask that you please pray on this. Bring it to our Father. Ask HIM to show you truth HE will. I saw the dead sitting all around me in the church. I once was like them and it pains me to see so many still being lied to. 


Please come to KNOW Yahshua and all that HE has done for you and me. HE loves you with such a deep love. HE wants to see no one perish but to have eternal life. We are all sinners and we all needed  Yahshua to die for us. Will you please ask HIM into your life. Will you seek HIM with your whole heart. HE is waiting for you to come to HIM. Please don't wait any longer. Call on HIM right now, HE will answer you.


In Yahshua's name with love,
Cassie

17 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off.


Isaiah 33

King James Version (KJV)
33 Woe to thee that spoilest, and thou wast not spoiled; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! when thou shalt cease to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; and when thou shalt make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.
Lord, be gracious unto us; we have waited for thee: be thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.
At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered.
And your spoil shall be gathered like the gathering of the caterpiller: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them.
The Lord is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.
And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the Lord is his treasure.
Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without: the ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.
The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.
The earth mourneth and languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed and hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.
10 Now will I rise, saith the Lord; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.
11 Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, as fire, shall devour you.
12 And the people shall be as the burnings of lime: as thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.
13 Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge my might.
14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?
15 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil;
16 He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure.
17 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off.
18 Thine heart shall meditate terror. Where is the scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted the towers?
19 Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, that thou canst not understand.
20 Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.
21 But there the glorious Lord will be unto us a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.
22 For the Lord is our judge, the Lord is our lawgiver, the Lord is our king; he will save us.
23 Thy tacklings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey.
24 And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.

The tongue weighs practically nothing But so few people can hold it







Peace,


Please pray for those in prisons who don't know Yahshua. For those who need protection from the enemy. For those who need faith. For those to forgive and for those to be forgiven. For those on death row. For those who will be released. Prayer is a powerful tool. Amen.


Prison Wisdom
Message to the world you know what I'm saying 
Just cause you locked up doesn't mean you invisible 
you still exist and your words is felt 
so peep and take heat to these thought to a comrade 
You know what I'm saying-put it like this: 
Yo, many people will walk in and out of your life 
but only true friends will leave imprints in your heart 
in our short experience that we shared 
imprints was left behind 
To handle yourself is to use your head 
To handle others is to use your heart 
Anger is only one letter short of danger 
If somebody betrays you once, it's his fault 
If he or she betrays you twice, it's your fault 
Great Minds discuss ideas 
Average minds discuss events 
Small minds discuss people 
God gives every bird it's food 
But he who's not thrown into his nest 
He or she loses money loses much 
He or she who loses a friend loses more 
He or she who loses faith loses it all 
Learn form the mistakes of other 
you can't live long enough to make them all yourself 
The tongue weighs practically nothing 
But so few people can hold it 
FRIENDS- you and me we started a bond, a circle, a friendship 
and like that circle there is no beginning and there is no end 
Only if it is between two true friends

Our job is to point people to the Saviour and His Law and invite them to receive, of their own free will and desire, the Gospel of Salvation themselves.

Peace,


   While in prayer this afternoon I was thinking about the gift of grace given to ALL who want it. We cannot force one into accepting this grace simply by what we say or do. This is an individual decision.


 I found this article that I will place below. It sums up all that I was led to pray about. Teaching the lost about the gift of grace is teaching them about Yahshua. To preach to them about hell is to turn them away in fear. Please read below.



Aren't those who do not hear or accept the Gospel doomed by God?
In the parable of the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-32), when the younger son demanded his inheritance and left home to indulge in riotous living, he was not stopped by his father. His father did not chase him away yelling, "You good-for-nothing impudent, rebellious ass of a boy! You'll burn in hell!" Not at all. Not even remotely. The father did not threaten the boy with hell-fire and damnation -- why should he? He knew that the boy was going to create this for himself all on his own. Instead, he let the boy go in peace with the freedom to think, feel, and act as he pleased, without recrimination.
What do you imagine the boy would have thought some time later, when he had lost everything -- money, friends, and self-respect -- if, when in the depths of desperation, he called to mind his father, and heard echoing through his head, "You no-good-for-nothing impudent, rebellious ass of a boy! You'll burn in hell!" Think about it for a moment. And then ask yourself the question: What was it that made the boy want to return home in the story that Jesus told? Was it the picture of a father breathing hell and damnation or of a sorrowful man who loved him enough to give him his freedom to do as he pleased?
We are not in the position of passing ultimate judgment on any man. We do not know how God will judge a man or woman in the eternities because we lack those omniscient, omnipotent, all-loving keys of love. To be sure we are called to make some local judgments of individuals that affect the welfare of the Body (Church), our families, and our countries, but we have never been given the mandate to pass judgment on any individual in his relationship to eternity. Never! And I challenge anyone to show me in the scripture where we have been given that mandate.
That Prodigal Son would never have come home had the last picture of his father been of a vengeful, condemning ogre. Once he had realized his stupidity, his egotism, his selfishness, his rudeness -- yes, his rebelliousness and his being an "ass-head" for himself -- he had only one picture to fall on that would entice him home into loving care -- the picture of a sorrowful but loving father.
It is a serious mistake to conclude that a man is lost just because he rejects our preaching. Have we suddenly become gods whose message cannot be refused on pain of everlasting destruction? We do not know the background of anyone fully. We do not, in truth, know the path any single soul has walked within himself. Only God knows that. There are times and seasons when a soul is receptive to the Word, times and seasons which God alone knows. Anyone who calls him- or herself a Christian must be sensitive to these things to be any use to either man or God.
There are ways to warn people of the consequences of sin that will endear them to God and cause them to repent, and there are ways that will turn them off Him altogether and encourage them to rebel all the more -- because they simply can't see the love in the inadequate human visions of eternity. God's chief purpose is to reveal His love to us -- to "draw" us to Him, not to "compel" us to Him. The god of the whip has another name.
It is not for us to judge men whether they are fit for heaven or hell. That is none of our business, and I would even venture to suggest that those who act as God in this way run the risk of finding themselves in that place they are so busily condemning others to. It is our duty to warn them not to do it and to protect innocent people from them. God will convict people of sin in His own way that will lead to genuine and not plastic repentance. Our job is to point people to the Saviour and His Law and invite them to receive, of their own free will and desire, the Gospel of Salvation themselves.
It should be comforting to us, knowing that nobody will have a consciousness after death. The thought of my loved ones looking down on me, and seeing the things I do wrong while they are totally helpless to do anything or even give advice, is comforting. To have a loving mother be conscious of her loving son, while her son she loved so much is burning in hell forever, is not a comforting thought. To me, that would be a living hell for her.
In conclusion, there is no conclusive or explicit proof in scripture that says people will have a consciousness after death. In addition, Only God Himself will determine what happens to us after we die. Opinions about what may or may not happen to us, or to others, after death, is just that...opinions. For nobody really knows what will happen except God Himself.

Gifts of the Spirit 1 Corinthians 12 Fruits of the Spirit Galatians 5:22-23

Peace,


     Let's look at the fruits and the gifts of the Spirit. I myself can work on the fruits of the Spirit. I look at the list and find myself weak in self control. I pray to Our Father to help me with this weakness. There are times also when I allow the world to take HIS peace and joy from my life. Now looking at the gifts of the Spirit. I pray for a stronger faith, discerning of Spirits and word of wisdom. I pray to our Father to receive these gifts. However, the fruits are something I must be obedient to. I wanted to share this with you as it was placed on my heart. Please look the list's over and pray on them. Amen.
