Rom 8:35-39 tells 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.

2 Cor 4 :7-11 tells us - But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.( He lives inside of us )
8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; 10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

When you are down or afraid GO to the WORD the only real TRUTH!!! He is worthy to be praised !!

Shalom Shalom family ?

Hebrews 4:12
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.

While this verse might have been read so many times before, how many took intensely notice of it?

YHVH wants us to truly listen and seek understanding to His word. People read the truth, but hardly lives by it. His Word being like a two-edged sword, Spiritually doing a restoration operation to our bodies. Every nights rest restore us ready for the new day.

It becomes easy to reject the Word heard, if you don’t allow it to take root in our heart and mind. There is a difference in just being able to hear, and purposely listening with and expectation to learn from it.

When the word of YHVH are unable to penetrate in us, we awake in the morning with tiredness and feeling negative impact on our life.

YHVH, Our Heavenly Father. Thank You for the Spiritual awakening this morning. Reviving and refreshing our day every morning with a newness. Thank You for a good night rest knowing that all things are in Your loving and caring hands. Thank You for giving us abilities. Thank You for our sight, our ears and a body that operates by Your power invested in us. Please, help us reflect more on what we need to change. Guide us in our hearing and let us not walk by sight but by Your truth in Your word. Turn everyone to a yearning for Your Word to change them. Let Your truth manifest in every living soul and do Your will in all. Help us not to judge, but diligently seek our hearts and remove all that is not from You. Help us to see others through Your eyes and pray for them to receive Your word, and let us be reminded that we should be a living example of Your grace and mercy. Forgive us for all sins and trespasses against Thee and others. Let Your truth lead us to Your Glory and Holy Throne. Make our walk in the light of Your lamp and the darkness to flee from it. We Glorify You and Praise Your Holy Name. We give Thanks to You our Saviour and Redeemer forever and ever. Let Thy Kingdom come and will be done. Amein

Be blessed and stay blessed ?

Minor pet peeve of mine, calling men who lived hundreds of years after #Yeshua "Church Fathers". By this standard Joe Biden is a founding father of #America. (insert involuntary gag here)

Not that I think there wasn't good people then, but I do think we should be more concerned with what Yeshua and the original disciples taught than folks who lived way afterward when things started going south in #Church leadership.

Thought for Today: Friday December 17:

As you get out of bed in the morning, be aware of YHVH’s Presence with you. You may not be thinking clearly yet, but He is. Your early morning thoughts tend to be anxious ones until you get connected with Him. Invite Elohim into your thoughts by whispering His Name. Your day will brighten up and feels more user-friendly. You cannot dread a day that is vibrant with His Presence. You will gain confidence through knowing that He is with you – that you face nothing alone. Anxiety stems from asking the wrong question: -- If such and such happens, can I handle it? – The true question is not whether you can cope with whatever happens, but whether you and YHVH together can handle anything that occurs. It is this you—and—Elohim factor that gives you confidence to face the day cheerfully
