A Storm Called Pride

As I said in the previous chapter, winds come, having many different characteristics. The nature of the wind determines whether the wind is a force to be used beneficially, or a tool of destruction. The Ruach HaKadesh was referred to as a wind by our master Yahshua Ha Mesheiach in the gospel of John 3:8 (KJV) “The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.” We know the wind Yahshua was talking about was, and is today, the invaluable wind (the Ruach HaKadesh). This wind brings life and freedom to all those that will let Him lead them. So we see that this wind is one of constructive force. The Ruach HaKadesh wind blows in many benefits, just as the fall wind blows away the leaves. Nobody knows where the fall wind originates or where it terminates; but we can see the effects of the wind. Just as surely as the wind moves the leaves, the Ruach HaKadesh moves the spiritual man. The Ruach HaKadesh brings healing in on it’s wings; also it brings first discipline, then prosperity, peace, joy and a sound mind. Acts 2:2 (KJV) obviously refers to the Ruach HaKadesh as a wind, “And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.” All through the Bible there is undeniable evidence that the lives of the people who came in contact with this wind were forever changed. The reconstructive, empowering force of this wind was, and is today, world changing. In John 20:22 (KJV) Yahshua gave us instruction to receive the Ruach HaKadesh, and demonstrated that it was the wind (Ruach HaKadesh – the kadosh breath of Yahveh), the life giving force.” And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Ruach Ha Kadesh.” Continue reading →

Strong Winds Blowing

Many years ago when I was studying to get my pilot’s license, there was many things I had to learn about the nature of flying an airplane. The first thing I had to understand was how to get it off the ground. The next thing was to be able to control the plane speed and level flight + or – fifty feet while in the air. This was not as easy a chore as you would imagine; I had to learn about such things as yaw and pitch. Pitch is the up and down position of the nose of the plane to a straight and level imaginary line. The position of the noise left or right of an imaginary straight line is yaw. There are three factors that you must to be aware of at all times, yaw, pitch and speed. Once you leave the ground in an airplane you become a part of the elements and unless corrected for the plane moves left or right depending on the direction of the wind. If you don’t make corrections for the wind you could be miles off course and not even be able to see your destination. You could fly right by it and not know that you missed it. Another factor in keeping the plane on the proper heading is magnetic north and true north. Each longitude has a correction for the magnetic north you read on the compass and that has to be figured correctly to be able to stay on course You might say why are you talking about flying a plane I have no interest in flying an airplane. Well, the truth is our spiritual life is much like the airplane there are many outside forces that are trying to move you off the course you desire to follow. And in this book I have treated each one of these forces as a wind trying to blow your airplane off course. Of course, your airplane is your life and the direction you want it to go. There are many forces out there trying to blow your aircraft off course and you don’t stand a chance of reaching the desired goal without making allowances and corrections for each one of these forces.

The Rapture

It is so good to hear from you. Yes we do believe in the catching up or gathering together, what the church calls the “rapture”.

However I do not believe the same way the traditional church believes. The traditional doctrine is only 200 years old and originated with a woman named Margaret McDonald from Glasgow, Scotland. There are many Scriptures in the Bible that speak of this event but none put the time frame on it that the traditional church does. Matt 24:29-31 NKJV sets the sequence of the catching up or gathering together to Him for us.

We are told in “Matt 24:29 NKJV “Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.” The further ref in the Gospels are (Mark 13:24-27; Luke 21:25-28) as follows.

A Storm Is Coming

There is a storm coming and no one wants to talk about it; especially those who are in charge of making you feel good each 1st day (Sunday). The traditional Pastors of the traditional Church have been trained in their method of delivery and the subjects that are acceptable. They are trained to stay away from controversial subject matters and words that may be a little to abrupt.

Lets say you are in the middle of a hard battle. You ask the battalion leader “how’s the battle going“, the leader may tell you the battle is won even though the enemy out numbers you, has just received reinforcements and received a new supply of ammunition. Your leader has deceived you because you’re told the “enemy is ready to give up don’t worry“. After hearing this you relax somewhat and therefore you don’t prepare for the next onslaught of the enemy to try to overrun your position.

The perversion of the truth was comforting and reassuring at the time, but left you unprepared for the coming battle. Now if there is a place that is not good to be it is at a gun fight with only a pocket knife in your possession. If you have the wrong weapon for the time you are facing then you are unprepared for the battle you are about to experience and probably will not survive. Continue reading →

The Passover & First Fruits

Wow was it a wonderful Passover Seder. The Ruach HaKadesh was precious. We could feel the anointing at the outset of the Seder. The Father was in complete control of the Passover and the time spent before Him was inspiring. He also used so many people during that time. It was so awesome I believe the Father reminded each one of us in a special way what is the meaning of Passover. Passover is about remembering the compassion, the mercy and the great measure of grace the Father has shown to humanity by delivering them from their destructions.

First there was the deliverance of Israel from the hard hand of Pharaoh and the hard life of forced labor and serving a tyrant. You say how does that effect me? I was never a slave in Egypt, I never had to do forced labor in my life. Why should I celebrate the Passover? I am not Jewish and don’t want to practice Jewish rituals. Never mind the fact that I have been adopted into the Jewish family thru the blood of Yahshua, by Father Yahveh. We can ignore the fact that I was delivered from the slavery of sin, the most cruel of taskmasters and set free to serve Yahveh.
