Psalm 107

Read this psalm and really hear what it is saying: Psalm 107. I have been reading this over the last few days and it is amazing God's love for us.

America and Israel

So how close is the relationship with Israel and the US today? I believe we are seeing the beginning stages of a weaker relationship with Israel. Ps 122:6 is still ringing loudly from the scriptures yet deception is driving more and more people against Israel. Last night at study we were looking at Romans 4 and who is Abraham? What is his significance? Why was he righteous? So we looked at Genesis 11 - 21 and answered a lot of those questions. Seeing that Abraham believed God and God credited it to him as righteousness. There were no works that made him righteous it was God alone through faith. Take a look at theses scriptures and ask the Lord what is the importance.. one hint (We are of the seed of Abraham through faith). I think it is becoming very evident how the US/Israel relationship is going. Be praying for the peace in Jerusalem/Israel, and God's mercy on our country and people. 1 Thess 5:18 - In everything give thanks....... read this verse its amazing!

FREEDOM TO ASSEMBLE?

In the time that we live people are becoming more and more skeptical and afraid. Some of the articles that you will see today show just how frustrated and callous people have become to people simply knocking on their door. In the past it was exciting to welcome guests into your home and talk with someone coming to your door. Today is a much different story. Fear of Jehovah's witnesses or burglars have people all but ignoring the door and if they answer it is usually with a half cracked doorway so they can muscle out an intruder. I would urge all disciples of Yeshua (Jesus) to keep an eye on these current American rights. Pray for lost souls and don't stop street witnessing or door knocking if the Holy Spirit is leading you to do that.

Memorial Day

Thank you Lord for those who have stood and given their lives to protect this country and fight for freedom. I took a look at the news this morning and I have to say things are heating up in the Middle East. It would not surprise me to see a war between Israel and Iran this year at all. Please be praying for peace in that area and for discernment for the leadership in Israel. Pray also for the innocent people in Iran who are not involved in politics and don't make the decisions over there. On a good note we had an amazing study last night and William and myself were asked to teach for a few minutes. I struggled with it for a good bit of the day and then prayed about it and gave it to the Lord. He calmed my fears and let me rest in studying out the word belief. I looked at several scriptures where this word is used throughout all the scriptures. It is amazing that belief is tied to faith and action and not confession. It is a two part deal. William was also asked to share/teach and he looked at some of the same scripture that Pastor Weintraub started in that morning at study John 8:31. He branched off and asked some great questions like in verse 33, in bondage to what? He went to John 15 and talked about abiding in the Lord, What does that mean? Also Galatians 5:16, and other places adding on to walking in the Spirit. Take a look at these scriptures and feel free to ask the Lord for others and examine what is believing? (Genesis 15:6; Exodus 4:5; Daniel 6:23; 2 Chronicles 20:20; Psalm 119:66 with Psalm 119:166; James 2:19; John 11:25-26; John 14:10-17; John 20:24-31; Hebrews 11:6; Philippians 1:29) Again don't limit your search to just these scriptures but really ask yourself what is it to believe?

Big Government - Big Problems

I am noticing that the U.S. Government is getting very very large. Not that it is a surprise or that most people don't already know this. There are a few headlines today that you might want to be aware of because I believe they infringe on your rights as a citizen. The rest of the Headlines will be as normal relating to what is going on in the times we are living. Remember it is the small changes that a government makes that sneak up on you in the long run. Very good Bible study last night studying what we believe and looking at the scriptures and doctrines that are taught by many different denominations. We have been looking at the word election and I would encourage you to look up that word and see when it is mentioned and what it has to do with. We are addressing three different belief systems right now, Catholicism, Armenianism and Reformed theology. So do your homework and study to show yourself approved. (2 Timothy 2:15)

Free from Oppression

Wow its been 11 days since the last post, O how time flys. To walk free from oppression is what the Lord has begun teaching over the last few messages. In my last post I mentioned the coming deception because that is a topic that Pastor Weintraub has begun teaching on and I beleive that is what the Lord is trying to prepare us for. Interesting enough because he has been teaching about blessing and how the Lord is El Shaddai (Provider and so much more). That is what the Lord does he prepares his people before something is going to happen and equips them with what they need to hold on in tough times. Yeshua (Jesus) desires to provide for us, deliver and keep us just as Jesus said in Isaiah 61:1. This last month has been amazing and I have had several opportunities to share the gospel with people. Please pay attention to what the Spirit of the Lord is saying because I keep getting urged by Him to tell people that He comes quickly. (Psalm 56, Psalm 120-124 right now are amazing)
