Psalms 22


2. My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? [You are] far from my salvation [and] from the words of my moaning. ב. אֵלִי אֵלִי לָמָה עֲזַבְתָּנִי רָחוֹק מִישׁוּעָתִי דִּבְרֵי שַׁאֲגָתִי:
3. My God, I call out by day and You do not reply, and at night I do not keep silent. ג. אֱלֹהַי אֶקְרָא יוֹמָם וְלֹא תַעֲנֶה וְלַיְלָה וְלֹא דוּמִיָּה לִי:

7. But I am a worm and not a man; a reproach of man, despised by peoples. ז. וְאָנֹכִי תוֹלַעַת וְלֹא אִישׁ חֶרְפַּת אָדָם וּבְזוּי עָם:
8. All who see me will mock me; they will open their lips, they will shake their head. ח. כָּל רֹאַי יַלְעִגוּ לִי יַפְטִירוּ בְשָׂפָה יָנִיעוּ רֹאשׁ:
9. One should cast his trust upon the Lord, and He will rescue him; He will save him because He delights in him. ט. גֹּל אֶל יְהֹוָה יְפַלְּטֵהוּ יַצִּילֵהוּ כִּי חָפֵץ בּוֹ:
10. For You drew me from the womb; You made me secure on my mother's breasts. י. כִּי אַתָּה גֹחִי מִבָּטֶן מַבְטִיחִי עַל שְׁדֵי אִמִּי:
11. Upon You, I was cast from birth; from my mother's womb You are my God. יא. עָלֶיךָ הָשְׁלַכְתִּי מֵרָחֶם מִבֶּטֶן אִמִּי אֵלִי אָתָּה:
12. Do not distance Yourself from me, for distress is near; for there is none to help. יב. אַל תִּרְחַק מִמֶּנִּי כִּי צָרָה קְרוֹבָה כִּי אֵין עוֹזֵר:
13. Great bulls have surrounded me; the mighty ones of Bashan encompassed me. יג. סְבָבוּנִי פָּרִים רַבִּים אַבִּירֵי בָשָׁן כִּתְּרוּנִי:
14. They opened their mouth against me [like] a tearing, roaring lion. יד. פָּצוּ עָלַי פִּיהֶם אַרְיֵה טֹרֵף וְשֹׁאֵג:
15. I was spilled like water, and all my bones were separated; my heart was like wax, melting within my innards. טו. כַּמַּיִם נִשְׁפַּכְתִּי וְהִתְפָּרְדוּ כָּל עַצְמוֹתָי הָיָה לִבִּי כַּדּוֹנָג נָמֵס בְּתוֹךְ מֵעָי:
16. My strength became dried out like a potsherd, and my tongue cleaves to my palate; and You set me down in the dust of death. טז. יָבֵשׁ כַּחֶרֶשׂ | כֹּחִי וּלְשׁוֹנִי מֻדְבָּק מַלְקוֹחָי וְלַעֲפַר מָוֶת תִּשְׁפְּתֵנִי:
17. For dogs have surrounded me; a band of evildoers has encompassed me, like a lion, my hands and feet. יז. כִּי סְבָבוּנִי כְּלָבִים עֲדַת מְרֵעִים הִקִּיפוּנִי כָּאֲרִי יָדַי וְרַגְלָי:
18. I tell about all my bones. They look and gloat over me. יח. אֲסַפֵּר כָּל עַצְמוֹתָי הֵמָּה יַבִּיטוּ יִרְאוּ בִי:
19. They share my garments among themselves and cast lots for my raiment. יט. יְחַלְּקוּ בְגָדַי לָהֶם וְעַל לְבוּשִׁי יַפִּילוּ גוֹרָל:
20. But You, O Lord, do not distance Yourself; my strength, hasten to my assistance. כ. וְאַתָּה יְהֹוָה אַל תִּרְחָק אֱיָלוּתִי לְעֶזְרָתִי חוּשָׁה:
23. I will tell Your name to my brothers; in the midst of the congregation I will praise You. כג. אֲסַפְּרָה שִׁמְךָ לְאֶחָי בְּתוֹךְ קָהָל אֲהַלְלֶךָּ:
24. You who fear the Lord, praise Him; all the seed of Jacob, honor Him, and fear Him, all the seed of Israel. כד. יִרְאֵי יְהֹוָה | הַלְלוּהוּ כָּל זֶרַע יַעֲקֹב כַּבְּדוּהוּ וְגוּרוּ מִמֶּנוּ כָּל זֶרַע יִשְׂרָאֵל:

THE LOVELY PLACE

 *Translate into your own language by clicking the icon to the right of the screen.* 

Psalms 84
How lovely is your dwelling place,
    Lord Almighty!
My soul yearns, even faints,
    for the courts of the Lord;
my heart and my flesh cry out
    for the living God.
3 Even the sparrow has found a home,
    and the swallow a nest for herself,
    where she may have her young—
a place near your altar,

    Lord Almighty, my King and my God.
Blessed are those who dwell in your house;
    they are ever praising you.


Today the Lord says your heart is the lovely dwelling place of the Lord.  This lovely place is not a place in heaven somewhere.  It is the place in your heart that you give to His Presence.
Your heart is the place where Yeshua longs to dwell if you have not invited Him inside.
The Presence of the Lord is where the little birds are fed and where they are born.  In the Presence of the Lord is where Provision is and where people are birthed into the Kingdom.
Let the Glory of the Lord fill your heart today.  Let the Train of His Glory(kavod) fill your temple and be satisfied in His Presence this day.  You ARE the lovely place that He longs to fill.  Invite His Presence today.  He loves you and He loves your invitation.

DECISION MAKING

Are you having problems making decisions today?
Do you believe that God will make up your mind?  
No, God will NOT make up your mind.  God has given you the tools, the Word and the Spirit to guide you daily.  You are the one who makes the decisions for your life every day Even our attitudes are chosen on a daily basis.  We are to think about things that are lovely, good report, pure, virtuous and praise-worthy.  Also, living with a heart of thankfulness changes the way we think.  Again, these are choices.
You are a FREE-MORAL-AGENT and God`s will for your life is already written in the Word.   You are the one who chooses the path for your life.  You are the one who is responsible for your choices.  You are also responsible to know and learn the Word of God and learn to listen to Holy Spirit.  This is not your pastors job for you.   Also, the devil is not responsible if you choose the wrong path.  You are!  It is very important that you choose the path according to the Word of God.  To choose right, you must know the Word of God.  We are either walking toward/with God or walking according to our own way/away. 
Here is a word from job about this subject;   
Job 22
 and let Shaddai be your treasure
and your sparkling silver;
26 then Shaddai will be your delight,
you will lift up your face to God;
27 you will entreat him, and he will hear you,
and you will pay what you vowed;
28 what you decide to do will succeed,
and light will shine on your path;

29 when someone is brought down, you will say, ‘It was pride,
because [God] saves the humble.’

A FAITHLESS OR FAITHFUL GENERATION?

 *Do you want to read this blog in your own language?  Click the TRANSLATE icon on the right of the screen.*
 It is not enough to know something, it has to be BELIEVED.
First, you do need the knowledge but secondly you need to put the knowledge to practice.  When we act upon something, we believe it.  This is why everyone who came to Yeshua were healed.  They came to Yeshua TO be healed.  In Yeshua`s home town he could do no great miracles because the people did not believe in Him.  Why would you ever go to a Doctor if you did not believe he could help you.  The people in Yeshua`s hometown did not come to Him to be healed therefore He could do nothing great there.  Unbelief is one of those things in the end that will cause people to miss out on Salvation.  It is also something(a Spirit) that will be thrown into the pit  when Yeshua comes to make ALL things new. 

Look at the story from Mark 9.
 Yeshua  Heals a Boy with an Unclean Spirit
14 And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them. 15 And immediately all the crowd, when they saw him, were greatly amazed and ran up to him and greeted him. 16 And he asked them, “What are you arguing about with them?” 17 And someone from the crowd answered him, “Teacher, I brought my son to you, for he has a spirit that makes him mute. 18 And whenever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams and grinds his teeth and becomes rigid. So I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they were not able.” 19 And he answered them, “O faithless generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him to me.” 20 And they brought the boy to him. And when the spirit saw him, immediately it convulsed the boy, and he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth. 21 And Jesus asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood. 22 And it has often cast him into fire and into water, to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.” 23 And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.” 24 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, “I believe; help my unbelief!” 25 And when Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.” 26 And after crying out and convulsing him terribly, it came out, and the boy was like a corpse, so that most of them said, “He is dead.” 27 But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose. 28 And when he had entered the house, his disciples asked him privately, “Why could we not cast it out?” 29 And he said to them, “This kind cannot be driven out by anything but prayer.”
Yeshua is calling the disciples a faithless generation because they were unable to get rid of this demon.  Now remember, this was before Yeshua died, so they were not regenerated yet.   The reason to bring this up is-today we are regenerated-if Yeshua is calling them a faithless generation-what would Yeshua be calling us today?  Do we even care as believers?  Are we faithful or faithless?  Yeshua said these signs shall follow those who believe.....And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues;  they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well."Mark 16:17-18

GLORY

*Do you want to read this blog in your own language?  Click the TRANSLATE icon on the right of the screen.*

May the Glory of God fill your Temple today.  Yes, you are His temple, the place where He dwells is inside our hearts.  
Hab. 2;14 says For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.  God wants His glory to BE known and to fill you and your life.  
Turn your attention to the Lord, STOP a moment and tune in, call heaven.  You will be heard and you will hear things you never knew were possible.  You will be surprised at how refreshed you feel physically when you tune in to Holy Spirit.  Turn towards Him today and let His Light shine upon you, illuminate your life, and change the attitudes of your heart.  You will be amazed at the freedom you will feel when you let GO of your control and let God drive your car.
Do not forget to call upon heaven today.
Jeremiah 33...


“Thus says Adonai the maker,
Adonai who formed [the universe]
so as to keep directing it —
Adonai is his name:
‘Call out to me,
and I will answer you —
I will tell you great things,
hidden things of which you are unaware.’”

WHAT IS COMMUNION?

 *Do you want to read this blog in your own language?  Click the TRANSLATE icon on the right of the screen.*
When you eat or speak with someone, we say,  you are COMMUNING with the person, right?
It is interesting that sin coming into the world involved food!  Interesting.  When Yeshua was tempted in the wilderness, it also involved food.  Yeshua took back the authority and conquered, where the first man failed.  Yeshua symbolically IS the second Adam.

 The first Adam ate of the tree of knowledge good and evil, which brought death.  Do not speak to the enemy as Adam and Eve did.  One could say they communed with Satan and were deceived.  People argue, "their eyes were opened."  Yes, but they would not have tasted of physical death or been separated from communion with God, if they had not been deceived by the Serpent.  Do you have any dead areas in your own life because of deception?  Remember only Holy Spirit can show you and you must ask-because-when we are deceived we do NOT realize it.

The second Adam  was Yeshua.  During the Passover meal, before Yeshua died, He told them to regularly partake of the Bread and Cup, remembering His death.  This sinless death of Yeshua brought us LIFE.  Today this is what we call communion or partaking of the Lord`s Supper.  This is Passover; death passes without effecting you and you have LIFE.

So today when you partake of the Lord`s Supper, you are spiritually clothing yourself with the Messiah.  
When you eat and drink physical bread and water it sustains your physical body.  When you eat spiritual bread and water(water of the Spirit is Holy Spirit), it sustains your spiritual body.  Now since we are body, soul and spirit; what we do spiritually will effect our physical body.  

When you partake of the Lord`s Supper you are DISCERNING His body, not your body.
This means you examine what happened to His body that you might have LIFE.
You have been made clean because of Yeshua`s body and blood.  He is the Bread and Water of LIFE.

Have you ever thought of doing this daily in the privacy of your our home?
I urge you to partake of Him symbolically and see what Holy Spirit will show you.
He Heals ALL our diseases and Forgives ALL our sins.
We do not have a problem with this concept when it pertains to sin, or do we?
Do not base your belief on your experience or a feeling.  Base your belief on what Yeshua said.  
He heals ALL, and forgives ALL.
May you Commune with Him today and may his Blessings Rest upon you.
