B.E.S.T. Shabbat

““Hear, Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD is one!” (Deuteronomy 6:4) To listen to the audio-only version click below  Giving Opportunity Message   Deliverance requires a deliverer. Our deliverer is Yeshua and He is known as the Word of God. In Hebrew, He is the Davar-Elohim. For a Word to be able to act as our deliverance, it must be heard. This is the beginning of faith or trust in the Word. “So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.” (Romans 10:17) In order to have a deliverance, we must have faith. In order to have faith, we must have “hearing”. Hearing is the Hebrew word sh’ma. The first use of sh’ma in the Bible occurs right in the beginning after Adam and Eve have disobeyed God by eating the forbidden fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. “Now they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of t...

““Let’s rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him, because the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His bride has prepared herself.”” (Revelation 19:7, NASB) To listen to the audio-only version click below  As we prepare our hearts and minds for the prophetic hour that we are living in, there is a deliberate attack on marriage, what it is and who it is for. Gender confusion is the doctrine of the world in this hour whose aim it is, is the undermine the true importance of the bride preparing herself for the consummation of the marriage to the Lamb. Over the next series of gatherings, we will be examining what exactly is the purpose of covenant marriage and how we can prepare ourselves and live true to the victory which is our faith, or trust in action. “For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.” (1 John 5:4) Faith or trust, in Hebrew “Emunah” is a different word picture than the one often understood in...

"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;" Eph 6:10-17 (NKJV) As we have been working on aligning our inner life with God’s word through the spiritual power t...

""But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come."   Joh 16:13 (NASB) Click here to listen to  " Holiness and Faith " In the times that we live in, it is becoming increasingly difficult to discern what is true  and what is not true.  The voices of fear, doubt, and confusion scream loudly across the airwaves, and  people rush about in a panic trying to control what  the y  feel as a result. Yeshua prophesied that this time would come.  Let’s look at Matthew  24, beginning at verse 4  through 14. "And Jesus answered and said to them, "See to it that no one misleads you.  "For many will come in My name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will mislead many . "You will be hearing of  wars and rumors of war s. See that you are not frightened, for those things must...

The LORD confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them. (Psa 25:14) Click here to listen to " Faith and Fear " Last week we looked at the essential nature of the goodness of God and how an encounter with His goodness transforms us from glory to glory. His goodness is His Glory and any encounter with Him will be transformational in nature.   Transformation is a state of being change.   We are no longer the same person when we are transformed. Transformation is fundamentally different than self-improvement.   While self-improvement is certainly a worthwhile process, it is fundamentally different from what is available to us when we have a God-encounter.   A God-encounter both kills and brings about new life.   This process is called being crucified with Christ. "I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the ...
