Thought for Today: Thursday September 15:

May YHVH revive your heart for earnest, consistent prayer. May you remember once again that YHVH moves on every act prompted by your faith. May you rejoice in the fact that YHVH keeps His Promises and answers prayers. Even though you cannot see it yet, Yeshua has Created a stream in the desert for you. He has made a way where there has been no way. And soon you will see the breakthrough. So, rejoice, pray, believe; have faith, and be blessed today!

"You are unable to serve YHVH...he will not forgive..." in Joshua 24:19 was probably meant as a warning that God would not spare the nation the consequences of forsaking him. History proved him right. However God promises forgiveness *WHEN* (not if) they repent.

If you make a vow or oath to God, he will hold you accountable for keeping or violating it. Your words will be a witness against you.

Q57: Who destroyed all the worshippers of Baal by proclaiming "a great sacrifice" unto Baal?

MAKING PEACE – PART 2

2. How To Share YHVH’s Peace With Others:

A – Pray For Them:
Make a list of people that you know, who do not know the Peace of YHVH in their lives [might be friends, relatives, acquaintances, etc]. Let this list be your main prayer list that you go over every single day. Our prayer is that YHVH would move in their hearts so that they would be receptive to His message of Peace. When the Apostle Paul appeared before King Agrippa, he attempted to lead Agrippa to Moshiach. Paul testified in -- Acts 26:29: And Paul said, I would to YHVH, that not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds. Paul’s prayer was that King Agrippa, as well as the crowd that day, might know the peace that comes from a relationship with Yeshua Moshiach. Never underestimate the power of prayer, it works!

B – Empathize With Their Situation:
There are not many examples of peace in this world. This is especially true when it comes to people’s emotional and spiritual state. If most people we met would be honest with us, they would have to admit that their inner life is in turmoil. Rather than rebuking them for not having it all together, Yeshua calls us to empathize with them, to understand them, to show them love. Remember, dear brothers and sisters, that few of you were wise in the world’s eyes or powerful or wealthy when YHVH called you. -- 1 Corinthians 1:26. When I was called to YHVH’s Peace in 1981, I was a person that many in the church would not have given the time of day to. Thank YHVH, some wonderful believers understood the inner turmoil they had experienced themselves and were willing to open up their hearts.

C – Accept Them as They Are:
A number of years ago I saw a man I attended high school with. He had long hair, smoked pot and was a genuinely nice guy. I tried to build up a relationship with him and we used to eat lunch together. One day I invited him to come to a special service at the church. That is when he told me about some of the colleagues, he worked with who attended another church in town. He said that on a daily basis these guys would make fun of his hair and inform him he was going to burn in hell; he said they even seemed to enjoy that fact. I will tell you the same thing I told him; the issue is not your hair, your bad habits or what you have pierced or tattooed. The issue is, are you willing to accept the peace that comes from a relationship with Yeshua Moshiach? But YHVH Commendeth His Love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Moshiach died for us. -- Romans 5:8. Sometimes we get so tied down in wanting everybody to look like us, talk like us and be like us in every way, that we forget that YHVH Loves them just like they are.

D —Communicate Clearly:
…withal praying also for us, that YHVH would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Moshiach, for which I am also in bonds: that I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak. -- Colossians 4:3-4. To communicate clearly means this; we are not communicating our denomination or non-denomination, we are not communicating our suburban culture, we are not communicating our particular style of worship. What we want to communicate is Yeshua Moshiach and Yeshua Moshiach alone. I am not trying to win anybody over to the way I dress, comb my hair, the kind of car I drive or the type of music I listen to. So many times, we let side issues that have nothing to do with our faith, get in the way of communicating the mystery of Moshiach. I want to communicate the simple message that through Yeshua Moshiach you can have the peace you have been looking for.

E – Expect Results:
For the Word of YHVH is quick and Powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit and of the joints and marrow and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart – Hebrews 4:12. When sharing the Good News of Moshiach in the way described above, we allow the Word of YHVH to do its work. Even if a person, or friend never comes to know the Peace of Moshiach. We can rest assure that we have done what YHVH asked us to do. All of these elements will help us to become peacemakers. Perhaps you have seen the bumper sticker: No Moshiach – No peace! Know Moshiach – Know Peace! That bumper sticker sums it all up. When we truly know Moshiach in personal relationship we know what it means to live lives of peace. And once we have come into that relationship, the thing that is foremost in our minds is being able to share that peace with others.
