THE TRUMPET by BILL BURNS
You must believe My love for you. Learn to live in and be empowered by My love. My love will sustain you in troubled times. My love will strengthen you when Satan comes against you. Learn to live in the power of My love! My love will provide a covering of protection for you. Wear My love and be victorious, says the Lord.
SMALL STRAWS by MARSHA BURNS
In a vision I saw what looked like a horizontal rainbow with layers of transparent color. And the Lord said that these colors represent different levels or expressions of glory. He also indicated that He would expand our understanding of His glory.
“I have not stopped giving thanks for you. In my prayers I keep asking the God of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, the glorious Father, to give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you will have full knowledge of him. I pray that he will give light to the eyes of your hearts, so that you will understand the hope to which he has called you, what rich glories there are in the inheritance he has promised his people, and how surpassingly great is his power working in us who trust him. It works with the same mighty strength he used”
Ephesians (Eph) 1:16-19 CJB
I'm not a teacher, I'm not a pastor, I'm not a prophet. Whatever Father tells me to say, I have to be obedient. I can be riding and messages just start hitting me, there's been times I've had to pull over to record.

Thought for Today: Sunday January 22:
Too often, many people and even believers, are filled with regret and guilt because they have failed to reach out to someone with whom they had a problem – and then when death comes, it is too late to do something about it. Do not let this happen to you. If a broken relationship, argument or ill feeling comes to mind, know that the place to begin is within yourself. Make peace and let that person know that you care and that you love him/her in Yeshua Moshiach. Also never use words alone – back it up with action.

MOSES DISOBEYS
THE DEATH OF MIRIAM AND AARON
From Numbers 20
After many years of wandering in the wilderness, the people of Israel assembled again at Kadesh, passing first through the Wilderness of Zin. It was the first month, probably about April, when they arrived at Kadesh. While they were there, Moses’ sister Miriam died and was buried. After a while the water supply at Kadesh ran out and the people gathered together to complain against Moses and Aaron. If only we had died with our relatives who died before Adonai! They said: why have you brought all Adonai’s people; and our animals too; to die in this wilderness? Why have you brought us from Egypt to this evil place? There is no place to plant seeds or raise fig trees, vines or pomegranates. There is not even any drinking water! Moses and Aaron went to the tabernacle and fell with their faces to the ground at the doorway. The glory of Adonai appeared to them, and Adonai spoke to Moses. Take Aaron’s rod to that rock over there, He said. Summon the people and while they are with you, speak to the rock and tell it to give forth water. Then out of the rock will pour enough water for all of the people and their cattle. Moses took Aaron’s rod and went with Aaron to the rock. They summoned the people to the rock and spoke to them. Listen to me, you rebels; Moses said. Must we bring water from this rock for you? Moses lifted Aaron’s rod in his hand and struck the rock twice. Water poured from the rock, enough for all the people and the cattle to drink. But Adonai scolded Moses and Aaron for the way they had done this. You did not honour Me before the people of Israel, Adonai said. Therefore, you shall not enter the Promised Land with your people. The place where the rock was struck was named Meribah, which meant {Rebel Waters,} for this was the place where Israel rebelled against Adonai. But Adonai showed them His Holiness there. While the people camped at Kadesh, Moses sent messengers to the king of Edom. Greetings from the descendants of your brother Israel, the message said. You are aware of all of the problems we have had how our ancestors went to Egypt and stayed for a long time and how the Egyptians made slaves of our people. But when we pleaded with Adonai, He sent His Angel to lead us from Egypt. Now we are camped here at Kadesh, not far from the border of your land. Let us pass through your land. We will not go across a field or vineyard, nor will we drink water from any of your wells. We will stay on the king’s highway until we have passed through your land. No, you may not pass through our land, the king replied. If you do, we will come out and fight you. But we will stay on the king’s highway, Israel insisted. If we drink any of your water, we will pay for it. We only want to pass through your land. The king of Edom answered by sending an army to the border. When Israel saw that the king would not let them pass through Edom, they turned away from Kadesh and went to Mount Hor, which was near the border of Edom. While they camped near Mount Hor, Adonai spoke to Moses and Aaron. Aaron will soon die, for he will not enter the Promised Land with his people since the two of you rebelled against Me at the waters of Meribah, Adonai said. Take Aaron with his son Eleazar into Mount Hor. Take Aaron’s garments from him and put them on Eleazar. Then Aaron will die in the mountain. Moses did as Adonai Commanded and the three of them went up into Mount Hor, while all the people of Israel watched them. Moses took Aaron’s garments from him and put them on his son Eleazar. There, in the top of Mount Hor, Aaron died. Then Moses and Eleazar came down. When the people learned that Aaron was dead, they mourned for him for thirty days.
COMMENTS
{GATHERED TO ONE’S FATHERS}: BURIAL CUSTOMS
Israelites that died in the desert were simply buried in the sand, with the hope that the hole was deep enough not to attract hungry wild animals. Even important people like Miriam and Aaron were buried in this way. Even after the Hebrews settled in Canaan, their burial customs remained fairly simple. Because bodies were not embalmed and the climate was very hot, bodies were buried within twenty-four hours of death. Usually, the family and friends of the dead prepared the body by washing and anointing it. The body was then wrapped in a cloth for burial. Professional mourners and flute players joined the family in the required seven days of mourning. During the earliest years in Canaan, people buried loved ones beneath the house so the spirits would remain with the family. Samuel was buried in this way. Very poor people were simply put into the ground or their bodies covered with rocks in an unused cistern or shallow pit. The body might be wrapped in its cloak or an animal skin. Later on in Canaan, families who could afford it buried their members in caves. That is how Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Rebekah, Jacob and Leah were buried. Others carved tombs in limestone hillsides or beneath hills. As time went on, rooms ringed with burial slots were added, leading in a semicircle back to the first room. As new bodies were buried in the tombs, the bones of the old skeletons were gathered and stored in special stone or pottery jars or boxes called {ossuaries.} These were shaped like chests or houses and were engraved with inscriptions. Sometimes however, the old bones were simply shoved aside to make room for the new body. After several burials, someone entered the tomb to gather each person’s bones for the ossuaries. But sometimes one person’s bones would be mistakenly gathered up and put in an ossuary with another’s, perhaps those of a parent or grandparent. Being {gathered to one’s fathers} in this way was considered an honour, because it symbolized the gathering with one’s ancestors beyond the grave.
2 Peter 3:14 Therefore beloved, as you expect these things, take pains that you shall be found without spot and without defect before him in peace. 15 And you shall consider that the patience of yahuah is salvation, just as our beloved brother paul wrote to you, according to the wisdom that was given to him, 16 Just as in all of his letters he spoke about these things, in which are things difficult for the intellect, which those who are without teaching and unstable, pervert, as also the other Scriptures, to their own destruction. 17 You therefore, beloved, as you have known beforehand, guard your souls, lest you go after the deception of those who are without The Law and you fall from your own stability. 18 But grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Our Savior, Yeshua The Messiah, and of God The Father, to whom the glory is now and always, even to the days of eternity. Amen. Aramaic Plain English
Had an old friend tell me I was too legalistic. She believes that if she dropped dead while clubbing, she knows she'd make heaven her home because of grace... Many people are going to perish for lack of knowledge. Unfortunately, we can't do whatever we want and still think we're going to make the kingdom.
Our Creator has been delegating His authority from the beginning. He's got some very important reasons for doing that. We're miss those reasons, however, if all we want to do is maintain the status quo until He fixes the universe.
