THE LAODICEANS

I have visited one assembly (church) lately and was praying intensely for that ministry. Then suddenly I sensed that I needed to stop going there. I knew something about that assembly, but I did not know the depth of the issues. Then today I heard in my spirit the word: Laodiceans.

The apostle Yochanan/John had been in the Island of Patmos for the Word of Elohim and for the testimony of Yehoshua on Yehovah’s Day, and something happened.

“I Yochanan, both your brother and companion in the tribulation and kingdom and patience of Yehoshua HaMashiach, was on the island that is called Patmos for the word of Elohim and for the testimony of Yehoshua. I was in the Spirit on Yehovah’s Day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet, saying, I am the Aleph and the Tav, the First and the Last,” and, “What you see, writ e in book and send it to the seven churches which are I Asia. To Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.”

Yochanan was most likely praying in tongues, when Yehoshua Himself invited his beloved apostle to write this book of Revelation. He had given Yochanan revelation of things to come. Today we will speak of the Laodicean church.

During my prayer time I was perplexed and asked the reason why I was not supposed to go back to that place to pray for revival. And I got the answer. Let us read what this church is all about it.

“And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write,

“These things say the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of Elohim: “I know your works , that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’- and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked, I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him. And he with Me. To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne as I also overcame and sat down with my Father on His throne. He who has an ear, let Him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”’”

Chazon/Revelation 3:14-22

Yehoshua, who is the First and the Last, the Amen, the Beginning of Creation, knowing all things, is speaking without any reservation to this famous church.

This particular church must have been known for her many works. I probably was given a soft diet, and did not emphasize repentance from sin. She must have been a large church. However, the presence of the Spirit of Yehovah was no longer there as it was in the beginning. Many she began to change according to the culture of the area. We must remember that the worship of false gods permeated the globe, just as it is now. In order to grow she most likely water down the gospel, and stopped having altar calls. She had contemporary music most of the time to accommodate and to attract the young people. The pastor most likely no longer gave the altar call inviting the seeking Yehovah to repent. He was streaming and needed to be loved by the masses, the heathen.

The love for Yehovah had been replaced with television and money came in via text messaging. Why bother, they felt rich. They did not have to pray hours for revival any more. They had it made!

Wrong! The all seen Elohim read their mail, or I should say, their heart. Yehoshua found this ministry To be wretched, miserable, poor, and naked! He told them to wash their eyes with salve, in other words they needed to be healed from their wretchedness! They were blind to their situation. They had gone far away from Him. He sent people to help them, in other words, He knocked on the door, but they did not respond. They were too full of self, to bother with anyone who came to pray for them. They had all they needed, they thought. But they were wrong.

Yehoshua said that He would vomit this ministry out of His mouth!

If you dear pastor, fall into this category, I urge you to wake up and repent. For nothing good is ahead of you if you do not repent. You are misleading your congregation giving then a sick and incomplete diet. Will you water down the Word of Yehovah in order for you to have a lot of money and travel around the world? Will you do it in order to have a big church? Please examine yourself, and change. Repent now, before Yehoshua vomits you out of His Mouth!

Today this is all I am going to say. Repent, whoever you are. Humble yourself before Yehovah now, and receive the correction before it will be too late for you.

Call upon Him, the Creator who has blessed you, but you have forgotten Him. He is no longer number one in your life. Money, pride and glory, has replaced your love for Him, your Savior.

Please note.

Remember that Yehovah is translated in English as The LORD. But His name is Yehovah.

Yehoshua is His only Son. Our Sacrifice who died for our sins.

Repent today and be healed from your blindness.

REPENT OR BURN

We are living in the “Last Days” and many people think this world is going on forever. But one day this planet is going to burn with fire. Yehovah will actually renew the Heavens and the earth.

Yehovah is going to reveal that He is in control. Now is the time for each us to think on eternity. Will you consider examine yourself today, and see if there is any wicked thing in you?

If you repent, O Yisra’el,” declares Yehovah, “return to Me. And if your remove your abominations from My presence, and cease straying, and shall swear, ‘As Yehovah lives, ‘in truth, in right-ruling, and in righteousness – then nations will barakh (bless) themselves in Him, and they shall boast in Him!’”

Yirmeyahu/Jeremiah 4:1-2

Literally these words were given to Israel who was worshiping other gods. But they applies, sadly, to America today. America is backslidden now, and many ignorant souls worship devils.

Satan is a common name now among young people, and also old people. Many have literally consecrated themselves to him. He instructs them to sin, to watch pornography; to be sexually immoral; same sex-marriages; man with man and women with women; adultery; fornication; stealing; drugs; and all immorality. He promises glorious things, especially money and sex if they do those things he wants them to do, and eventually also curse God! Those souls have fallen into his trap. One day he will take them into his home of torment and fire. At that time it will be too late to repent to Yehovah. If you are involved in any of those sins or any other habitual sin, such as alcohol, drugs, or gossip, or anything else that Yehovah would not do, you will be ending in torment for all eternity.

Now is the time to repent.

For this says Yehovah to the men of Yahudah and Yerushalayim.

“Break up your tillable ground, and do not sow among thorns. Circumcise yourselves unto Yehovah, and take away the foreskin of your hearts, you men of Yahudah and inhabitants of Yerushalayim., lest My wrath come forth like fire and burn, with none to quench it, because of the evil of your deeds.”

Yirmeyahu/Jeremiah 4:3-4

Our hearts need to be circumcised. We need to feel the pain of repentance. You must be willing to let go of sin, and of friends who are leading you to hell, and obey Him. Church, repent now.

Yehovah sends us warnings to help up to wake up from our slumber. Earthquakes and floods are many times allowed by Him in order for us to repent and seek His Face. Today America is in a deep stressful situation with the rain and soon snow. I ask those of you going through the flooding to repent of your sin, and make things right with Yehovah, for your life is in danger to be snuffed away. And if you die without having believed in His only Son, Yehoshua, you will be lost for eternity. Today is indeed your day of salvation. Cry out to Yehovah and repent of your sins. Do not wait, eternity is knocking at your door. Do not wait! Please call upon His name, to help you, save your soul and protect you from death today.

I speak specifically to the assemblies (churches) in America. We are in this land and we are experiencing Covid 19, earthquakes, floods, and a government who is not helping us. We as the called out ones are responsible to do something about it. Such catastrophe are allowed by Yehovah to help us. If we listen to His voice and repent, He will stop sending these signals. The Word calls those things Harbingers. You may have read the books of Rabbi Jonathan Cahn. If you have not, your should do so.

What is happening, I believe, is a warning from Yehovah unto us to change and recognize Him as our Creator, and recognize His only Ben, His only Son, Yehoshua HaMashiach, our Messiah.

Today is the day to repent. Listen to what the prophet Yirmeyahu has said, for it applies to all of us.

Yehoshua was answering the man who came to Him with questions.

“Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born from above, he is unable to see the reign of Elohim.” Yochanan/John 3:3

He kept telling him,

“Truly, truly I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Ruach, He is unable to enter into the reign of Elohim. That which has been born of the flesh is flesh, and that which has been born of the Ruach is spirit.”

Yochanan/John 3:5-6

Remember, Yehoshua died on the cross and also rose again. His resurrection confirmed His Deity. He was Elohim (God) in the Flesh. He died for you to inherit eternal life. For we cannot go to Heaven with our sins. But we could not pay for it with good works. The penalty for sin is death.

(See Romans 3:23)

Read some of my other messages too, and know that unless you are not born again by the Spirit of Yehoshua you cannot be saved.

We must repent of our sin first, and then his Ruach, (Spirit), will come into our life, and we are born again. You will become new, your sins will be canceled as though you never sinned. Yehoshua shed His blood for you, and when you repent, His blood will cleanse you. At that point the past will be gone forever, and now you have the ability to live for Him. Forsaking all other gods.

Now, in this very moment, you can be born again!

To repent means to turn away from sin, and begin to serve Yehovah. You must be very sorry of your sin, and ask Yehovah to forgive you for offending Him, and others.

The Holy Spirit will help you to repent now. Do not wait. Seek him now, for He is very near you.

I have spoken about being born again, because although you may go to church, no one told you that you need to be born again. Only after you are born again, you get baptized, and not before or at birth.

And after this experience you can receive the Power of the Ruach haQodesh and receive the Prayer language (See Ma’aseh/Acts 1:8; 2:1-4

You can write to me for more information, at shomerhatorah@gmail.com

Will you please visit Amazon and down load my books. I have my autobiography, “NEW LIFE AND GLORY; THE LOST SHEEP; AND STRINGS OF PEARLS available now for you

Thank you.

Thank you for seeking Yehovah today.

Please remember that Yehovah is the correct Hebrew name of our Creator, whom the translators wrongly give Him the title of the LORD, but He has a name. I honor Him by calling Him by His Name that He graciously has given us in His Word over 6800 times!

I speak about this fact in other messages, and you many want to read about it. But you can also find a few books who teach about His Name.

Yehoshua is the correct name of His only Ben/Son. We know Yehovah as a Son, read the Psalms and find out. But you can also read the so called New Testament and find Him there. He is the Lamb of Elohim who came down from Heaven and became man, in order to save us from our sins.

The Ruach haQodesh is called Holy Spirit in English. I also use the names of the books in the Bible in Hebrew and in English.

Yahudah is Judah

Yehrushalayim is Jerusalem.

 

BLINDED!

Dear Minerva, Yehovah is using me to help you do good, by stopping your habitual sin.

If you do not listen you will be judged by Him, not by me.

My dear friend, please listen to the Word of Yehovah today, it will save your life.

My son, keep you father's command, and do not forsake the law of your mother. bind them continually upon your heart; tie them around your neck. When you roam, they will lead you; when you sleep,they will keep you. and when you awake they will speak with you.

For the Commandment is a lamp (light), and the law a light; reproof of instruction are the way of life, to keep you from the evil woman (man) from the flattering tongue of a seductress. 

Mishley/Proverbs 6:20 -24

 I am praying for you to stop sinning, by understanding the FEAR OF THE LORD that will help you not to sin against Him. Listen to His Word and be saved.

THE FEAR OF THE LORD IS TO HATE EVIL; PRIDE AND ARROGANCE AND THE EVIL WAY. AND THE PERVERSE MOUTH I HATE. PR. 8:13

WHEN YOU WORSHIP PUBLICLY, BUT YOU ARE LIVING IN SIN, AS YOU ARE, YOU ARE DECEIVING PEOPLE, AND IT IS PERVERSION, AND GOD HATES IT.

God judges the fruit. are you living holy? He has said, Be holy for I am holy!

For I am Yehovah who brings out of the land of Egypt, to be your Elohim (God), You shall therefore be holy, for I am holy!

Wayyiqra/Leviticus 11:45

He told Israel, and now to every born again believer to be consecrated. It means He has to have you. You cannot serve the devil and serve Him at the same time!

Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord", will enter the kingdom of heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, "Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders i Your name? And then I will declare to them. "I never knew you,; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!

Mattithyahu/Matthew 7:21-23

Lawlessness means that you are living without  His  law, it   means you choose to not obey His Word. You are rebelling against our Holy Elohim.

You are living in sin. Adultery and fornication is sex outside of marriage.

The gov is not born again and give you the ability to sin, but God has not changed His Word.

I am warning you (whoever you are) you are living in sin, how dare you think you can serve in ministry? You are hiding your sin.

You need to repent quickly once and for all. You did not have the example of a good mother, but you have people that God has put into your life to help you. However, if you resist the HOLY Spirit. You are grieving Him, and eventually He will leave you.

I want to help you to remove the blindness from your eyes.

Do you not know that the unrighteous will inherit the kingdom of Elohim? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators (you), nor idolaters, will in inherit the kingdom of Elohim.

Qorin’tiyim1/ 1 Cor. 6: 9-12

(you, whoever you are), because you put sex above holiness, God,will not inherit the kingdom of God unless you repent.

For we all must appear before the judgment of Christ.…

However, this is the Bema seat of judgment, for the believers, but you are not saved now, you are in sin, and if you die and will not repent, you go to the other judgment, which is to send to hell. I am trying to make you see you cannot play with God. You can do what you heart is saying, for the heart is wicked above things.

(Qorin’tiyim 2/2 Corinthians 5:10)

You say you follow your heart, listen to Yehovah what He thinks about this.

the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it?

Yirmeyahu/Jeremiah 17:9

Will you listen and be a good example to your children? Revival is coming and all hidden sin will be exposed.

But I have the responsibility to tell the leadership. and they will decide if you can sin and be in ministry. Then my responsibility is ended. It is best you tell them, than me.

I want you saved, and go to heaven, for hell is very hot, and neither God or I want you and Mark, or Christopher, to go there. You think you repent, and then go to bed and have sex again, and you think you are forgiven? You can fool God. You must let go of your sin once and for all.

You are mocking the Holy Spirit.

You repent and go right back to the same sin, and worse. Soon you will be doing drugs with bill if you do not stop your doings.

If you do not listen to the word,

"But even if our gospel is veiled it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the sight of the gospel of the glory of Mashiach/Messiah  who is the image of Elohim, should shine on them. 2 Cor. 4:4

Now you have been blinded and cannot see. The Word is light, and you mus see your condition which has been sabotaged by Satan. Wake up and repent now, whoever you are, Listen to the Word of God, for it is His Word that will judge you.

When you are born again, are new creature, old things are gone away. In the baptism you leave the past behind and begin again. How long will you take to open your eyes and stop sinning? Stop refusing the Word of Yehovah, and repent once and for all. Your life is in His hands, He can snuff your breath any minute. Live in light of eternity, not fulfilling the lust of the flesh.

I suggest that you will go to www.amazon.com and download my autobiography,

NEW LIFE AND GLORY, and THE LOST SHEEP

these books will help you to live according to the will of your Creator.

 

THE RICH YOUNG RULER

 

Today I must address the issue of riches. It is not a sin to be rich. We know many important persons in the Scriptures were very rich. But at times riches owes the person, and that is sin, as this rich young ruler who came to Yehoshua.

Let us listen to the Scriptures now.

Now behold, one came and said to Him, “Good Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?” So He said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, That is, Elohim. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.” He said to Him, “Which ones?” Yehoshua said, “You shall not murder, ‘ ‘You shall not commit adultery,’ ‘You shall not steal,’ ‘You shall not bear false witness,’ Honor your father and your mother,’ and ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’” The young man said to Him, “All these things I have kept from my youth. What do I still lack?” Yehoshua said to him, If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”- Mattithyahu/Matthew 19:16-21

But when the young ruler heard these saying, he went, away sorrowful, for he had great possessions. (v.22)

I notice first of all that Yehovah did not mentioned greed or fear of lack, or any other sin.

But what this rich ruler lacked was trust in Yehovah to provide for his needs. He relied on his riches to keep him, but lost on the great privilege of following Yehoshua in ministry and become a great evangelist, or pastor. He chose the riches above the Kingdom of Yehovah.

After this man left Yehoshua turned to his disciples to give them a spiritual lesson.

Then Yehoshua said to His disciples, “Assuredly, I say to you that it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of Elohim.” -Mattithyahu/Matthew 19:23

Of course the apostles wondered who would be able to go to Heaven. I believe most of them as fisherman and a tax-collector, had a lot of wealth. They chose to follow Him and Yehoshua would greatly reward them.

So Yehoshua said to them, “Assuredly I say to you, that in the regeneration, when the Son of Man sits on the throne of His glory, you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My name’s sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and inherit eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last will be first. - Mattithyahu/Matthew 19:28-30

Riches can be a blessing or a curse, depending on who has them. You can be rich and miserable, if this is all you have. And you can be the poorest person on this planet and be rich spiritually.

Yehovah has given a choice either to receive and be born again, and receive eternal life, or reject His offer and follow after the worldly attractions and be poor spiritually, and when you die, you will not enter the place He would have prepared for you.

I suggest that you do not act as the rich man in this message. But that you seek the kingdom of Heaven first, and all the rest will also be given you.

Choose to day whom you will serve.

Choose life.

Yehovah left the luxury of Heaven to become man, as one of us. And He did this to take the punishment that belong to us. Our sin earned death and complete separation from our Creator. He has given His word to follow. He wants to be known by us. His love is forever and He wants all of us to come into His kingdom.

But He has given a free will. Therefore He will not make us obey Him. But because He is holy, he also expects us to freely choose to be holy.

But our sin has to be removed from us, or we cannot be holy. Yehoshua has done this for us. He died and rose again, to purchase our salvation. Will you today accept His offer of salvation and repent of your sin, and ask the Father to forgive you?

Do it now, and you will enter in to Eternal life. Your life will be saved from the enemy of your soul. You will experience His peace, love and joy. And when trials come, you know where to go for help. Yehovah and Yehoshua will be there for you. He will never leave nor forsake you. Remember that Yehovah is One Being, but in three persons. The Father Yehovah, the Son Yehoshua, and the Ruach haQodesh/Holy Spirit who comes in you when you repent of your sin, and believe in Yehoshua.

Do it now, do not delay for your life is in His hands. You have no knowledge how long you will be here on this planet. He could call you in the next moment. Call on Him now and be saved. He is waiting on you.

Shalom

TIMES IS RUNNING OUT

As I was sitting in my chair about one hour ago, I felt may the earth under my chair move several times. An earthquake must have happened! I went to the search engine and sure enough there was written that an earthquake has taken place today in the ocean? This happened while I was thinking on doing this message “TIMES IS RUNNING OUT.” The Scriptures declares:

“Take heed that no one deceive you. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the en is not yet. For nations will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.”- Mattithyahu/Matthew 24:4-8

These words were spoken by our Redeemer, Yehoshua HaMashiach!

He knows the past, present and future. You can be sure that what He says will come to pass. After His resurrection and ascension to Heaven He called up the apostle Yochanan/John to Heaven and introduced Himself as:

“I am the Aleph and the Tav, the First and the Last. The Beginning and the End, says Yehovah, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty. Chazon/Revelation 1:8

He knows all about our past, present, and future. He holds time in His hands. Have we been already experiencing some of these signs that I mentioned above? Earthquakes are happening with more frequency than ever. We are living at the time that precedes the end of this era.

Out lives could be taken away in a moment through an earthquake, or flood, an accident, or simply by Yehovah taking back the life He has graciously given us.

Do you know, beloved reader, that you have no ability to lengthen your days, or to stop time. When Yehovah, your Creator chooses to take back the life He has given you, He does not have to ask you permission.

Some faith teachers are convinced that you, as a human being, can decide to live and not die when Yehovah calls you out. I want to let you know, that that is not possible. When He say to go up, or down, depends how you have lived your life, you will have nothing to say on the subject. It will be too late.

If you would go to the obituary and find out the age of the deaths of those persons listed, you will be shocked! There may be little children, of any age. There may be those who have lived one hundred or more years, and some only 15 years old, or 5 days old. There may be those who lived 50, 55, even 70, 80, 90 years old. My son was only 5 years and nine month old when he went to Heaven, and Yehovah is the one who chose to take Him. Some family member came to me asking the dumb question, “Why has God taken him?” I had no answer, except that Yehovah chose to take Him, and He wanted to go to Heaven because already had seen heaven and Yehovah’s home. He was ready to go. Obviously Heaven is the place we want to be when we die.

However there are some exceptions.

“There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day. But there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, full of sores, who was laid at his gate, desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table. Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s bosom. The rich man also died and was buried. And being in torments I Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. Then he cried and said , ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.’” - Luqas/Luke 16:19-24

First I want to show you that the situation in this man’s life was reversed. The rich man became the beggar, and the beggar became the rich wealthy man. Now this worldly rich man needed the man that he had despised all his life. He had no pity. He did not realize that all the wealth he possessed was a gift from his Creator. He thought there was no life after death, and refused to obey the commandments of Yehovah. He was his own god, but after he died, he ended up in the company of the those who had deceived him; Satan and his demons. They made sure he now understood that he had no power over his own life. He was now in captivity for all eternity and in torment. The fire was very hot, even a drop of water would have alleviated his suffering, however it was not possible. Lazarus could not pass over to him. There was a gulf fixed so that no one could pass that way.

Now Lazarus was suddenly important, but in life he had disdained him.

I need to ask you one question, what are you doing with your life? I am writing, together many other writers, who are also writing about the shortness of our earthly life compared to eternity.

What are you doing with your life? Are you also as this one rich man who thinks he can control life itself, and cares nothing at all for Yehovah and the poor. You may be very rich today. But you have very little concern about the suffering that is going on all around you. Maybe right at your neighborhood there are poor family who need help. Have you consider to share some of your riches with them? I implore you, wake up today and yield your life to Him who created you and hold your life in His hands.

If you continue to read this story about the rich man and Lazarus, you will find that this rich man is trying to control Lazarus by asking Abraham to send him to his brothers to warn his family about hell. He still has no regard for Lazarus except to use him as a slave. But Abraham told him that Lazarus could not do that for they had the Torah to read, and they should know right from wrong. Between the bosom of Abraham and hell is a gulf fixed, and cannot be crossed. Hell is separated for ever and no one can go there to help them, and also no one can come out.

Hell is forever, and Heaven if forever. The two are separated. Once the breath of life is taken, the destiny is sealed forever.

We have time now to change our wicked ways. We have all the opportunity to seek Yehovah and choose to serve Him. Chose today to love Him with all our hearts, and choose to hate evil. We must have a healthy fear of Yehovah in our hearts, for if we do we will not sin against our Creator. We will have the wisdom to obey him.

He has shown His mercy when He sent His only Son to die on the cross for our iniquities. All our sins, no matter how many sins we have committed in this life time can be forgiven, if we repent from our heart. To simply to be sorry of our sins is not enough, we must repent and confess our sins to Him. He is faithful and just to forgive us if we confess our sins, and believe that Yehoshua, his only Son died for us to save us from all unrighteousness.

Do you consider yourself to be righteous? Maybe the rich man in Hell also thought he was righteous while alive. If you believe that you are righteous and have no need of Elohim, you are deceived and you must repent or you too will end up the same place the rich man ended up.

Receive Yehovah’s mercy to day. Do not reject the gift of Yehovah. He loves you. Imagine the suffering Yehoshua endured in order to save your life. Listen to the Word of our Elohim, Yehoshua is the only way of salvation.

Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.- Ma’aseh/Acts 4:12

You cannot save yourself, and you cannot be saved by any other god, for there is only one Elohim/God.

Once you choose to talk to Yehovah, and you repent because you believe in Yehoshua, you must read the Scriptures and do what they say. I have spoken in many other messages about the salvation message. I suggest you read my past messages today and believe the Word of Yehovah. Be born again today by the Spirit of Yehovah. Trust Him to save you and to keep you. Yehovah loves us, but He cannot save us unless we repent and receive His offer of salvation; Yehoshua.

Shalom.

I called our Creator Yehovah, this is because He has a name, the Name is Yehovah, not the LORD, which is a title. Yehoshua means Yehovah saves. I no longer called Him Jesus, for that is not His name. I have also spoken at length about this subject in other messages. I honor the Person of my Creator and choose to make His name known. I hope you will get a Hebrew Tanakh and find His name there.

Please go to Amazon and download my autobiography “New Life And Glory,” “The Lost Sheep,” and or Strings Of Pearls.” You will be blessed if you do.

 

ARE YOU USING HIS GIFTS?

 Yesterday during my devotional Yehoshua spoke and told me to speak more on Eternity.

Why is this necessary? Well, as believers we should know that this life we have is not forever. We live here one moment at the time. At any given moment our life can be taken away from the very One who has given it to us.

Eternity is our goal. The dilemma for many is that they fear Eternity. Yes, this is a fact. They fear to die. How can this be? When we go to Heaven we have our own house or mansion that will fulfill all our desires. We will be with our Creator, our Father Yehovah, and Yehoshua. We will be with our family who served Yehovah while in this planed, and some of our friends. Why not wanting to go there? I presume, they love this world more than Yehoshua. They are not ready to let go for they do not know about the blessing awaiting us the true believers in our Creator and Savior.

I capitalize Eternity for a special reason. I want the attention of the reader.

What does Eternity mean to you? Have you ever considered the fact that there are two ways you can go when the Creator calls you out of the body. One is to go back to Him, to His Home in Heaven, the other one is where no one desires to go, but is going because has chosen to disobey his Heavenly Father in Heaven. That person chose to do what pleased him most down here on earth, but it was not pleasing to Yehovah. Yehovah will not allow him in His Kingdom.

My question is: “Where do you suppose you are going?” You can decide where you want to spend Eternity now while you live on this planet.

OK, now let us think about rewards. You may know that Yehoshua came in to this world to buy us back from the power of the enemy, or Satan, the rebellious angel who caused one third of the angels to fall with him. Satan has the place already prepared for him with those angels. Their place is the Lake of Fire.

The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.- Chazon/Revelation 20:10

Today we will not talk about this, but about the gifts. Yes, the gifts. Do you know that Yehoshua gave gifts to us after His death and resurrection, and before He returned to His Home in Heaven?

But to to each of us grace was given according to the measure of Mashiach’s gift. Therefore He says:

“When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, and gave gifts to men.” (Now this “He ascended” -what does it mean but that He also first descended into the lower parts of the earth? He who descended is also the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.) -Eph’siyim/Ephesians 4:7-9

I want to briefly mention that yes, He has bought us back to the Father with a not easy death. He was despised, He was oppressed, He suffered 39 lashes that ripped his body open, He was crucified between two thieves. He did all this to pay the price necessary, which was death, in order that we can receive eternal life in Heaven in His abode: Heaven.

For your were bought with a price; therefore glorify Elohim in your body and in your spirit, which are Elohim’s. - Qorin’tiyim 1/1Corinthians 6:20

Yehoshua owns us. And because of this He has given us gifts to use to enlarge His kingdom on the earth. The gifts are not all of the same value, but according to our abilities. For instance, I do not have to gift of be a quarter back, for I am a woman and small. I would be destroyed if I tried. I am not a great swimmer, although I can swim. But I could not compete in a tournament. You will not receive more rewards if you preach the gospel, unless you have been obedient. If you have sin in your life, and still preach the gospel, you will not preach about hell because you may be going there, if you do not repent.

You may be a house wife and you have been given much compassion, and you are a blessing to all that you come into contact with; you will be receiving great rewards.

I hope you got the idea. He gave us gifts according to our abilities, but He expects us to use them. He is our Boss, so to speak. He paid a hard price to rescue us from the hand of Satan, now we need to be busy in what is His kingdom business. Listen to the following few verses.

As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of Elohim. If anyone speak, let him speak as the oracles of Elohim. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which Elohim supplies, that in all things Elohim may be glorified through Yehoshua HaMashiach, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.- Kepha 1/Peter 4:10-11

Let us remember that we will face Him, who gave us the gifts one day when we will need to give Him an account on how we used the gifts He has given us.

By why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall stand before the judgment seat of Mashiach. For it is written: “As I live, says Yehovah, every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to Elohim.” So then each of us shall give account of himself to Elohim.”

-Romiyim/Romans 14:10-12

We will give an account of what He has invested in our lives. Laziness will not be rewarded. In fact we read in the Gospel the following words of Yehoshua to the servant who hid the gift, instead of using it for the glory of Yehovah.

“You ought to have deposited the money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest. So that the talent from him, and give it him who has ten talents. Fro to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away. And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”- Mattithyahu/Matthew chapter 25:26-30

It does not mean a person will loose their salvation. They make it to heaven, but they will not have the same degree of glory. In fact such person will not have rewards at all. He will not be too happy for a while there.

He may have given you something little to do to test you. Your assignments may be small but as you use the gifts, He will increase.

I have experienced this phenomena. I began my ministry with prayer, then bus ministry. Then preaching and on and on. And I am thankful. I would have never thought in my heart in the beginning of my walk with Him, that I would be writing books, or this message today. But He has given me more, and continues to teach me. As long as I try to do it, He is pleased and gives me more.

I do not want to appear at His judgment Seat in Heaven empty handed, after He has given me certain abilities to bless His Kingdom and myself.

It is up to us how much rewards we will receive. If you, beloved reader, are born again, you will go to Heaven as long as you continue in the walk of faith, but if you refuse to use the gift He has given you you will be very much disappointed. Chose today what you will do.

I was inspired to do this message after I heard a preacher speaking on the gifts. He compared Yehoshua to a business man. You may want to read the whole chapter in Mattithyahu/Matthew 25: 14-30
