Reading the title of this article may invoke visions of lush grape fields in the wine country of Sonoma, or the beautiful surroundings of the Tuscan or Bordeaux countryside. But in relation to the nourishment that I feel inspired to bring you today, we are speaking of Michael The Word Christ Jesus, Creation and Father Yahweh.

Before we can begin to understand creation, we must first understand how it was created. In past nourishment I have shared who our Savior was before he came to earth and was known by the name of Jesus. In the beginning, he was The Word, who is also Michael the Archangel. The "Word" was and is Michael the Anointed Christ Jesus. He was Father Yahweh’s first and ONLY direct creation and through whom all things were created. What this means is that while Father is the energy source of all creation, the world was bi-created all things under the direction and guidance of Yahweh and using Her energy as the source of all things.

John 1
Prologue
1 In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
2 He was with God in the beginning.
3 All things were created through Him,
and apart from Him not one thing was created
that has been created.

Colossians 1:16 "because by Him everything was created, in heaven and on earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities— all things have been created through Him and for Him."

Now, moving on to the meaning of the vine. Michael/Christ is the true vine because he was Father's chosen first born. Yahweh in turn, is the vineyard keeper because it is She that keeps the vineyard in working order and because all life stems from the Her as our Creator. Without Father there would have been no vine to grow creation into the reality we all live within.

The use of the word “stems” in regards to life and Father being the tree of life is very appropriate considering a few of its definitions:
- the stalk that supports a leaf, flower, or fruit.
- the stock or line of descent of a family; ancestry or pedigree.
- the main body of that portion of a tree, shrub, or other plant which is above ground; trunk; stalk.
- to arise or originate

All life in creation, the vineyard, stems (originates) from Father Yahweh, who is the energy source that gives all things life.

John 15
The Vine and the Branches
1 "I am the true vine, and My Father is the vineyard keeper. 2 Every branch in Me that does not produce fruit He removes, and He prunes every branch that produces fruit so that it will produce more fruit. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4 Remain in Me, and I in you. Just as a branch is unable to produce fruit by itself unless it remains on the vine, so neither can you unless you remain in Me."

Christ made the point of saying that he is the TRUE vine in the above scripture, because there is yet another vine that exists, which is Satan’s FALSE vine.

There are many who fail to understand why Father permits evil to flourish in Her creation and allow bad things to happen to the children that She loves. The reason is that as the vineyard keeper, Father has permitted Satan's false vine to grow and flourish so that She may prove that sin will not work in Her reality for the benefit of all concerned. The benefit for all of creation is in seeing first hand and learning that Her Way is righteous and that any detour from it does not and will not work.

This is just part of the reasoning in Father’s plans for the upcoming Rapture, and after that, Armageddon. The goal at this point in time, is to do all that we can each day to remain on the vine of truth, so that when the pruning takes place, we will remain in Christ Jesus our Savior and obtain admission into his Kingdom.

“I wanted to comment to you that it would be well if you were more careful not to make your message a message of fear. There is no need to mention the sufferings of the path of the one you call Lucifer, because there is plenty to say instead about the joys of the path of the one you call Christ. Let the message be a message of hope and not of fear.”
– Anonymous

Over the years I’ve received many comments from readers that are similar to this one, who believe that God’s message should be one of hope and not fear. I felt encouraged from within to attempt to impart some knowledge and understanding as to exactly why the messages we deliver in these End Times and during this Tribulation period contain both hope and a warning. It is an example of how the truth can also be a double-edged sword.

Imagine: You’re standing on the side of a busy street, and a friend of yours, someone you care for and love, steps out in front of an oncoming bus. Would you simply call out to the person “I hope you make it across safely!” or, would you call out a warning “Watch out! There’s a car coming!”

More than likely, the majority would do the latter and it is the same in regards to this ministry’s service to Father and Christ Jesus. We are to spread the light of truth, and at times, the truth can be a double-edged sword.

There are many people today who have been taught and also believe that Yahweh is a God of Love. And this is the truth, but not the whole truth. We know via the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments that Yahweh is most certainly a God of incredible love, who is also capable of wrath. It is this wrath that will be poured out upon this world and all of mankind that has not been Raptured to safety at Armageddon. It is like the speeding car coming down the street and many, many people are standing in front of that car and are in danger of being run over. And yet...for so many it's not that they don't see, it's that they refuse to see.

Isaiah 30:10 They say to the seers, "Do not see," and to the prophets, "Do not prophesy the truth to us. Tell us flattering things. Prophesy illusions.

Yes, there is much hope in Christ’s return. However… as one of Christ’s Ministers, I am also obligated in my service to him and Yahweh both, to deliver their message truth. Not just part of the truth, as so many shepherds of the day do, but the whole truth – because I have received the truth, and I am under obligation by the Creator.

Proverbs 4:7 “Wisdom is supreme—so get wisdom. And whatever else you get, get understanding.”

And as a minister, having acquired Wisdom about the Truth, it is not only our duty to spread the message as far as we can to creation, but if we fail to warn others, the Creator holds us accountable. Ezekiel 3:17-18 gives insight on this. "Son of man, I have made you a watchman over the house of Israel. When you hear a word from My mouth, give them a warning from Me. If I say to the wicked person: You will surely die, but you do not warn him—you don't speak out to warn him about his wicked way in order to save his life—that wicked person will die for his iniquity. Yet I will hold you responsible for his blood.”

It is for these reasons, and more, that I will not follow the advice given me that I shared with you at the start of this article. My heart simply won’t allow it. I am not here to please or placate mankind who choose not to believe that Father is capable of such wrath because it is Father and Christ that I serve first and foremost. I am not concerned with who I might please or if they might agree with me or like me more if I tell only partial truths because I serve them out of love; regardless of what they might think of the messages I deliver, or of me.

Proverbs 8:7 -- For my mouth tells the truth, and wickedness is detestable to my lips.

I am a human, who, though sinful just like everyone else, chooses to accept and believe the truth of Father’s love and wrath that has been shared with me. And I am also a servant of Yahweh and Christ Jesus who does her very best to be obedient and follow Yahweh’s commands. If I were to not adhere to the command of sharing Yahweh’s truth, it would be a disservice to Father and Christ. And if I were not to sound the warning of the coming wrath which is sounded out of Love for Her creation it would also be a disservice to mankind, as it is truth that will set you free.

John 8:32 You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

One cannot exchange the truth of God for a lie. Nor can you coat the truth with lies.

Romans 1:25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served something created instead of the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

Job 13:4 But you coat [the truth] with lies; you are all worthless doctors.

It is the light of this double-edged sword of truth that shines brightly and that encourages those who look upon it to also look inwardly at themselves and perhaps come to terms with their wicked practices. And it might cause fear, because seeing and acknowledging the truth would mean changing and repenting – and of perhaps losing one's pride and humbling oneself and admitting Yahweh’s true power. But it’s a humble heart in addition to a belief in Christ as Lord and Savior that will actually save.

Psalm 15:2 The one who lives honestly, practices righteousness, and acknowledges the truth in his heart —

The truth is a double-edged sword because it reveals things for what they really are. It is a balanced view and message that is one of hope, and a warning that might cause fear because for each of us, the reality might either be salvation, or, eternal death.

2 Corinthians 2:14-17. "death leading to death...life leading to life".
 
Loyalty 10/29/2009
 
Picture
Proverbs: 20-6 Many a man proclaims his own loyalty, but who can find a trustworthy man?

As a society, we place a lot of importance on loyalty; our workplaces wish for their employees to be loyal to them, as well as many businesses such as restaurants, credit card companies, car companies that ask for our loyalty to their service or brand. And of course it is also seen in families, friendships, and marriages as well as in government, in that we as citizens are expected to be loyal to our nation.

“In law, treason is the crime that covers some of the more serious acts of disloyalty to one's sovereign or nation. Historically, treason also covered the murder of specific social superiors, such as the murder of a husband by his wife (treason against the king was known as high treason and treason against a lesser superior was petit treason). A person who commits treason is known in law as a traitor.” (Wikipedia)

loy⋅al⋅ty –noun, plural -ties.
1. the state or quality of being loyal; faithfulness to commitments or obligations.
2. faithful adherence to a sovereign, government, leader, cause, etc.
3. an example or instance of faithfulness, adherence, or the like: a man with fierce loyalties.

Synonyms:
2. fealty, devotion, constancy. Loyalty, allegiance, fidelity all imply a sense of duty or of devoted attachment to something or someone. Loyalty connotes sentiment and the feeling of devotion that one holds for one's country, creed, family, friends, etc. Allegiance applies particularly to a citizen's duty to his or her country, or, by extension, one's obligation to support a party, cause, leader, etc. Fidelity implies unwavering devotion and allegiance to a person, principle, etc.

Antonyms:
1, 2. faithlessness.

I am loyal to my employer, my friends, my family, but I am not loyal to the nation of my birth and while I am a law abiding citizen, the allegiance of my heart belongs to my God and heavenly Father and Mother, Yahweh and Her son Christ Jesus our Savior. This nation is dead to me for many reasons, but mainly because I know that it, along with many other nations, are traitors to Yahweh whom I serve. And in this aspect, I am a lot like Ruth, who after the death of her husband, committed herself in faithfulness and loyalty to her mother-in-law Naomi.

Ruth 1:16
16 But Ruth replied:
Do not persuade me to leave you
or go back and not follow you.
For wherever you go, I will go,
and wherever you live, I will live;
your people will be my people,
and your God will be my God.
17 Where you die, I will die,
and there I will be buried.
May the LORD do this to me,
and even more,
if anything but death separates you and me.

Right now in this country, the leader proclaims that he will bring hope and change to what is considered by many to be a great nation that has come into some very hard times. But can he really be trusted? To answer this question you need only to look at the history of this nation and many others.

I ask you, would you rather place your faith and loyalty in leaders who continually disappoint those they are meant to serve, or in Yahweh, who has consistently made good on every promise made to Her creation? Consider the motives of man versus the motives of the One who created us. We know that Yahweh is loyal to Her children, but to whom or what are those in power loyal to?

Matthew 6:24 24 "No one can be a slave of two masters, since either he will hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot be slaves of God and of money.

The choice is yours and mine to have via the gift of free will but you must make your decision now, because as Christ stated above, no one can be a slave of two masters.

I pray that this article along with its accompanying scriptures give you cause to think, ponder and search your heart. Because at this current time, there is no promise of hope or change that can be made, and no action that can be taken that will result in stopping Father’s wrath from being poured out upon this world. So choose wisely…

James 4:8 8 Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, sinners, and purify your hearts, double-minded people!

Proverbs 3:3 Never let loyalty and faithfulness leave you. Tie them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart.

Deuteronomy 7:9 Know that Yahweh your God is God, the faithful God who keeps His gracious covenant loyalty for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commands.

Every story has a beginning, middle and an end. My story began not 39 years ago, but more aptly it truly began nearly 5 years ago when Father called me into Her and Christ’s service. Was I expecting it? I can’t say that I was. Sure, I’d always felt deep down inside that something important was coming my way but I’m sure a lot of people feel that. The dreamers of the world dream of worldly things…but this was to come from beyond this world.

I’ve spent the last couple of days digesting a recent update of information on the Spiritual War that was given to the ministers of the Light of Life Ministry by the Cherubic Order of Holy Angels. They were words that we’ve waited to hear for what feels like a long time and at the same time seems to have passed in the blink of an eye. As I write this I pray to Father Yahweh to guide thoughts in choosing the right words because it feels as if this might be the most important article I’ve written and will write from this side of Armageddon.

I’ve lived an ordinary life, but a blessed one. Sure, I’ve had my share of ups and downs, mistakes and disgraces, challenges and disappointments. I came into this world as an unwanted child and Father willing, will leave this world as a much wanted and loved Child of God. I began this journey thinking myself a good person as most of us do, and near the end of this journey realizing how faulty I truly am and how undeserving I am of the grace I am under and the salvation that has been offered me to take hold of.

To this day I do not know why Father chose me to serve Her and Christ Jesus in these End Times. None of us ministers do. But as for myself, Regina Adonna-Aaron, and Deborah-Moses, JohannaMoria-Angelinayaona, Jeshaiah, and Elisha Amana Yovanna, the joy of receiving the call that spoke so strongly and distinctly to our hearts has never ended and we’ve striven to do our best in sharing the good news, the warnings, and the truth. Father has guided our hearts throughout the months, the days, the hours and even the minutes during times of difficulties.

In this my journey of service to Father and Christ Jesus our Savior, I vowed to do my very best and to do all that I am humanly capable of in shedding the light of truth to the masses.

The truth as it stands right now, in this 10th month of the year 2009 is that time is very, very short. I want to assure you that when I tell you this, it’s not to frighten you because beyond Armageddon, in Christ’s Kingdom and even beyond that time into Eternity, there is so very much to look forward to. People hope and pray for peace on earth every day, but what they don’t realize is that it won’t come until Father’s plan for creation and expulsion of all evil from creation is completed. These things must happen, so that our prayers can be answered – it’s just that it has to happen in Father’s own timing and according to Her will.

The news we were given is this: Last week, the Lions of Zion offensive had begun in establishing a corridor that would act as the escape route from earth at the Rapture – in the same way that the dry sea bed of the Red Sea was the Israelite’s escape route from the Egyptians. Satan’s side was given a fair chance at halting the establishment of the corridor and ultimately avert the rapture but they failed. The corridor was secured and continues to be held by Father’s faithful Holy Angels that are assigned to this task.

The important thing to understand is that this is the prelude to the gathering of Father's flock to safe haven through the corridor to the waiting Rapture vessel. And for those Raptured, it will mean the death of their fleshly vessels to the rebirth in spirit vessels that will be almost instantaneous.

Isaiah 43:5-6
5 Do not fear, for I am with you;
I will bring your descendants from the east,
and gather you from the west.

6 I will say to the north: Give [them] up!
and to the south:
Do not hold [them] back!
Bring My sons from far away,
and My daughters from the ends of the earth —

1 Corinthians 15:52 "in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed."

We do not know when this will occur; only that it will be soon. The time table is in Father's mind and has not yet been made known as to when the gathering will begin. It could be at any moment, or it could be longer than anticipated.

Mark 13:33 Watch! Be alert! For you don't know when the time is [coming].

Matthew 24:36 [ No One Knows the Day or Hour ] "Now concerning that day and hour no one knows—neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son —except the Father only.

I’m sharing this with you, dear readers and extended flock, so that you will be warned but also so that if you haven’t already, you might make preparations within your own self and in your heart and mind. I encourage you to share this truth with others if you should feel moved to, so that they might be informed and prepare as well.

Father is ready to take Her children home and remove Satan’s imprint from creation. Humans will come to realize they have never done anything in private, and that all has been watched and recorded. Each human must stand upon their own merit if they do not come under the Ransom Sacrifice. That Sacrifice is the only thing provided in creation that can blot out past sins.

For those that scoff, or who refuse to accept and believe, they will weep when they see the full truth staring themselves in their hearts. But for them, it will be too late, and that is where they gnash their teeth at knowing what is to befall them.

Psalm 112:10 "The wicked shall see it and be grieved, he shall gnash with his teeth and melt away; the desire of the wicked shall perish."

In a world where the truth may seem for so many, so hard to find, I do not ask you to take my word for it but instead turn to Yahweh, who’s Holy Spirit reveals all things. Do not ask me to provide proof, because the proof is all around you and if your heart is open to receiving truth, then you will see and understand just as I have. Do not place your faith or your trust in me, but in our Heavenly Father, Yahweh, who saves. And lastly, no matter what happens, do not give up hope and do not abandon Father. Hang on and trust in Yahweh’s promise.

Psalm 119:32 I pursue the way of Your commands, for You broaden my understanding.

Obtaining understanding is a slow and steady progression. I can sometimes feel in my heart the times in which I try to gain understanding of things that perhaps it’s simply not the time to understand. While Yahweh says that we must dig deeply, it’s truly more of an excavation rather than just jumping in and digging a ditch.

It must be done slowly and carefully, like at an archeological site, each layer must be removed carefully so that you might fully understand before going on to the next layer. At the same time, you cannot build a wall by placing bricks up high before first building its foundation. This all takes time.

Father’s purpose and plan is so great and so beyond our human scope of understanding that at times we must wait, and remain ignorant to some things whilst others are taught first. It’s like learning how to read. One doesn’t simply jump into reading, before they’ve learned the alphabet.

Slowly over time, Father’s plan is revealed to us and along the way we receive droplets of understanding and Her plan begins to make more sense. And at the same time, the parts we do not yet know, or do not yet understand, are taken on faith. This is probably partially due to the following:

Revelation 17:17 “For God has put it into our hearts to carry out His plan by having one purpose, and to give their kingdom to the beast until God’s words are accomplished.”

It is true. I feel within my heart a want to carry out Yahweh’s plan. Whatever it might be, wherever it might lead, however it might be revealed. My part is small, but in union with the Holy Family and serving one purpose – the vindication and sanctification of Yahweh’s Holy Name. The understanding of how and why this is done has been revealed over time.

As followers of Christ, each day we walk by faith – because the deeper understanding of this interest we all share and feeling in our hearts is yet to be revealed. Our individual realities is all we know, but there are others, including Father’s own reality that She allows us to share in even though we might at this time not fully comprehend.

Job 12:13 Wisdom and strength belong to God; counsel and understanding are His.

Job 32:8 But it is a spirit in man and the breath of the Almighty that give him understanding.

Particularly now in these End Times, we must move forward always and often on faith alone because so much is happening that we do not understand. But at the same time, we must pray diligently for understanding and that we might be found worthy of receiving it.

We must also pray that the understanding we do have that is in the truth, we hold onto and that all else be dismissed; so that it might be fortified with further understanding and flourish. Pray that we might succeed in fighting off this gene of evilness that we’ve inherited, so that one day we might be whole and healthy; perfect in Father’s sight.

I also pray that this ministry of Father and Christ’s, has brought and continues to bring understanding to the extended flock so that when the time comes we might all be counted as salvageable in their eyes.

Proverbs 4:7 Wisdom is supreme—so get wisdom. And whatever else you get, get understanding.
 
Trust in Yahweh 10/11/2009
 
Picture
The Definition of the Word Trust:
1. Reliance on the integrity, strength, ability, surety etc. of a person or thing; confidence
2. Confident expectation of something; hope.
3. A person on whom or thing in which one relies: God is my trust.

Job 15:31 Let him not put trust in worthless things, being led astray, for what he gets in exchange will prove worthless.
Psalm 31:14 But I trust in You, LORD; I say, "You are my God".

Psalm 37:5 Commit your way to the LORD: trust in Him, and He will act.

Psalm 40:4 How happy is the man who has put his trust in the LORD and has not turned to the proud or to those who run after lies!

Psalm 62:1 [Trust in God alone] I am at rest in God alone; my salvation comes from Him.

Psalm 146:3 Do not trust in nobles, in man, who cannot save.

Proverbs 20:6 Many a man proclaims his own loyalty, but who can find a trustworthy man?

Proverbs 28:26 The one who trusts in himself is a fool, but one who walks in wisdom will be safe.

Would you rather.... Trust Everyone....or Trust No one?

This question came up recently while playing a game with a group of friends and the answer was interesting. Half the group answered Trust in Everyone, while the other half answered Trust No one.

Now obviously, neither of the two options is necessarily healthy...or even realistic in this day and age of our world, but it did cause me to ponder the question quite a bit and I turned to The Word for increased understanding.

Over time, because I've learned the importance of guarding one's heart and trusting first and foremost in Yahweh, my answer to the question was Trust No one...and this is why:

In the same way that you shouldn't put your physical life at risk by trusting any stranger on the street, neither should you put your spiritual life at risk either. I think that Psalm 40:4 resonates strongly here because it speaks of those who turn to the proud and chase after lies. To help put this into perspective in regards to today's day and age - look at the millions who have placed their trust and hopes in our president and in preachers on TV, even talk show hosts who claim to have all the answers to today's problems and frustrations.

Trusting in Yahweh, our Creator, is not trusting in a person per se because Yahweh is our God. Yahweh is spirit. Yahweh is perfect...while mankind is so very far from both god and perfection.

To place all your trust in Yahweh is to have hope. It is to have confidence in Her integrity. You simply cannot have this in mankind, because of the gene of sin we all carry.

Even when I minister, I encourage those who question me not to take my word on it - but instead to pray, ponder, even do research on the things that I've shared. This is because while I am Yahweh and Christ's minister and the things I share are truth, it is our Creator who speaks to the heart and reveals all knowledge and understanding. It is by the power of the Holy Spirit that all things are revealed - not by man or woman.

1 Thessalonians 1:5 For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power, in the Holy Spirit, and with much assurance.

Romans 15:13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

When I speak...when I write... I share with our extended flock that which Father Yahweh has shared with me. But, I do not ask that anyone place their trust in me because I am not worthy of their trust. Instead, I encourage all to place their trust in Yahweh whom I serve and where it rightly belongs. I have no power, no control. I cannot save. I am only a tool. A cog in the wheel of Father's family and a vessel that shares the outpouring of knowledge that has been shared with me both freely and with all who will listen. Place your trust not in me, or in any man or woman, but in Yahweh who saves.
 
Flash Forward 09/30/2009
 
Picture
A couple of nights ago I watched the season opener of a Television series called FlashForward and it introduced an interesting topic that I’ve decided to use as inspiration for this week’s article.

In case you haven’t had the opportunity to see the show, everyone in the world blacks out for exactly 2 minutes and 17 seconds and everyone receives a glimpse of their future. And one of the observations that arose is that after seeing a piece of their future, everyone began to make choices not on what “Could” happen, but on what “Will” happen and it profoundly affected the way that everyone in the world lived their lives.

Now keeping this in mind, try to imagine the following moment that I’m about to describe:

It’s an average day. You’ve just returned home from work or school. You open the front door to your house to find that your husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, brother, sister, child, or whoever is closest to you and that you love the most – gone.

Soon after you discover that the Rapture has occurred and all children are removed from the world. And all adults found to be faithful are also removed but the numbers are far less than expected. They do not just “disappear” as has been depicted in many popular Rapture theories...instead, their bodies are left behind but their souls have left their bodies.

You go outside. There is chaos in the streets. Your own neighbors are now raping, pillaging and killing one another for food and water. You rush inside your home and close the doors and shut the blinds, your heart pounding within your chest. Armageddon has begun and you’re one of the one’s left behind.

So the question posed to you at this point dear reader, is that if you saw a glimpse of your future and this was the outcome? What would you do? What choices would you begin to make? How would you move forward in living your life? What would you do to change your future?

Romans 13:12 The night is nearly over, and the daylight is near, so let us discard the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.

We should always live each day as if this scenario or one like it could happen at any moment, and not so that we can go out and party and do all the things we never got to, but so that we might be counted among the faithful and righteous who will be rescued from this dying earth by the Rapture and before Armageddon begins. As it says at Romans 13:12, we must discard the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.

We must begin to consider the future in a spiritual way rather than worldly one. Christ’s disciples served as an example of this mindset. They knew it would happen and they strove to live their lives each day as footstep followers of Christ. Somewhere between then and now this mindset has been lost – and it’s time to regain it. Knowing what WILL happen; we must change our behaviors and make different choices based on what we know will happen, not on what might happen. Because I assure you, it will happen.

If you know in your heart and your mind that it is and it will, your perspective on how you live your life changes and you begin making choices, like in the Television show, based on what will happen rather than on what could happen. Your perspective on life changes incredibly and suddenly the things of this world are unimportant and it’s the spiritual that becomes important. Knowing that the end of all things is near changes your priorities in a good way because you begin focusing on God rather than all the things of this world designed to distract you. You begin to prepare – your heart, your mind, your spirit.

1 Peter 4:7-8 End-Time Ethics Now the end of all things is near; therefore, be clear-headed and disciplined for prayer. Above all, keep your love for one another at full strength, since love covers a multitude of sins.

James 5:8 You also must be patient. Strengthen your hearts, because the Lord's coming is near.

Remain clear-headed and disciplined. Make time for prayer if it hasn’t been a part of your daily life until now. In every situation consider first before acting what our Savior would do and look to Father and The Word for every answer to every question in your mind. Strengthen and guard your hearts, be patient, and most importantly, continue to love one another.

Genesis 49:18 I wait for Your salvation, LORD.

3. to have confidence in the assertions of (a person).

Yesterday, I was watching “The Mirror Has Two Faces”, a movie starring Barbara Streisand, when I was struck with some inspirational insight from Father Yahweh that I thought appropriate to share in this week’s article.

The discussion in the movie centered on love, and mankind’s pursuit of love, but what struck me was how Love and Belief are actually bound to one another. So in pondering this concept, I began to think about our Creator, Yahweh, who is Love. And also the Love that The Word / Michael the Archangel had for both Yahweh and Mankind that led him to pursue the mission of becoming Christ Jesus our Savior.

And it struck me that not only was there this immense Love, but also Belief because The Word had to not only love Yahweh, but also believe in Her as well as mankind in order to do what he accomplished for mankind. And, Yahweh had this same Love and Belief in The Word as well as Mankind to even consider allowing Her beloved son to take on this mission that would make him our Savior. So the conclusion that I came to with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, was that where there is Love there is also Belief.

One can say that they believe in Christ Jesus and in our Heavenly Father, but this belief I’ve found, is twofold. Not only is it a belief in the actual existence of, but also in their abilities and integrity. To believe in them is also to have faith and trust and loyalty to them and to fully support them in their decisions and ability to do what is righteous for all creation.

It goes much deeper than what is merely on the surface as simply an agreement made that yes, they do exist. It’s a belief that comes from a deeper part of oneself. Deeper than the mind all the way down into the heart that truly loves and believes in our Creator and loving Savior. To say, “I believe in you” and to mean, “I trust you, love you, have faith in you and am loyal and obedient to you and I’m behind you 100%.” To believe in your mind, but also in your heart lays the connection that makes your belief whole and complete.

Exodus 14:31 When Israel saw the great power that the LORD used against the Egyptians, the people feared the LORD and believed in Him and His servant Moses.

2 Chronicles 20:20 “Hear me, Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem. Believe in the LORD your God, and you will be established, believe in His prophets and you will succeed.”

Matthew 18:6 “But whoever causes the downfall of one of these little ones who believe in me – it would be better for him if a heavy millstone were hung around his neck and he were drowned in the depths of the sea!”

Matthew 21:22 And if you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.

Mark 5:36 But when Jesus overheard what was said, He told the synagogue leader, "Don't be afraid. Only believe."

World Health Organization numbers show that 450 million people suffer from mental disorders and disabilities, most in developing nations. An estimated 800,000 people commit suicide every year, 86% of them in low- and middle-income countries. Around 20% of the world’s children and adolescents are estimated to have mental disorders or problems. They predict in 20 years more people will suffer from depression than any other. And, in the U.S. as the financial crisis beings us ever closer to the same numbers that occurred during the Great Depression, it brings new meaning to the word as the numbers of depressed persons also continues to rise.

It’s really no great surprise to me to read statistics such as these – but perhaps it’s because whereas once I was a “live and let live” type of person, not seeing beyond my own front door and the realities of the deceptive world we live in. In part, I think it’s that with age comes wisdom but in my case it’s really more to do with Yahweh’s wisdom and guidance that my eyes have been opened to truth and reality, that I see a much different world we currently live in. I see a world that reflects the instabilities and unbalanced natures of those living in it. I see a world that does not work, because it is so far from Yahweh’s original plan. I see a world in which most everything in it and about it is futile. And yes, this world can be depressing – especially for those who do not have the hope of salvation or a full understanding of Yahweh’s purpose and plan for Her creation.

Last week sometime, I was given the opportunity to minister to a neighbor about End Times and the Tribulation we are all currently experiencing. She had been going through some rough times in regards to her employment, income and managing to keep a roof over her head and I realized that as I spoke with conviction and excitement about the things that are and will soon occur, the expression on her face changed and seemed to reflect a certain amount of distress.

As we continued to talk, she said two things that struck me as being most common amongst those who do not have a complete understanding of Father’s plan to restore creation. One was that she feared she hadn’t been the Christian she should be and might be left behind and two, was that she regretted that there were so many things she hadn’t yet been able to do, like marry and have children. I realized that as I spoke she was seeing her future dissolve before her very eyes and I knew that I had to explain further that it wasn’t something to be sad or anxious about, but hopeful, optimistic and joyful.

As for the first concern, I could only say that if she was feeling this way, now was the time to do something about it because it applies to the second of two conditions required to obtain salvation, one being a belief and acceptance of Christ as our Lord and Savior and the other, the second, being a good heart condition.

But as for her seeing the end as a horrible thing and a loss of hopes and dreams and opportunities lost, I had to take a little more time in helping her to understand that there is reason to be optimistic and hopeful when it comes to what is in store. That yes, it’s the end but not the end of creation, the end of an evil, self-destructive and depressing world and that it is all part of Father’s plan to restore creation to Her original design out from under the oppressiveness of Dawn Lucifer the Devil’s tin god rule.

It’s this loss of hope that affects the people of the world today in the way that it does; driving up the numbers in cases of depression and suicides. Hope is the flame that burns brightly when Yahweh is your focus and the center of your life and Dawn has done all that he can to extinguish that flame. While it may be harder for some to find in a world that has been darkened by his influence, it still burns brightly. When we believe, this flame of hope tells us that while the world we live in has it’s many problems, there is a better world in store for us. And it’s faith that tells us that our Creator will bring it into fruition. That while this world and everything in it will pass away, a new world is being prepared for us where we will all live in harmony, peace and happiness. And, it’s the Word that shows us that as it happened in the past, it will happen again.

Yahweh knew that the Israelites were not happy living under the oppressive rule as slaves to the Egyptian Empire, and She had a plan in place for their escape.

Exodus 23:20 [ Promises and Warnings ] "I am going to send an Angel before you to protect you on the way and bring you to the place I have prepared.

Matthew 25:34 Then the King will say to those on His right, 'Come, you who are blessed by My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.

John 14:2 In My Father's house are many dwelling places; if not, I would have told you. I am going away to prepare a place for you.

The above scriptures also tell us that while the world that we know will go away along with the evil that dwells within it, a place is being prepared for us – so there is much reason for HOPE. It was the same hope that the Israelites felt upon leaving Egypt and the same hope for the people of today, who exist in these End Times. We must not look at End Times and Armageddon as being the end of our hopes and dreams, but the beginning. The promise is alive and Yahweh will destroy death forever, and wipe away the tears from every face.

Isaiah 25:8 He will destroy death forever. The Lord GOD will wipe away the tears from every face and remove His people's disgrace from the whole earth, for the LORD has spoken.

So, do not be sad or depressed! Do not mourn for what might have been in a world in which true happiness does not even exist. Have hope and faith and be joyful in looking forward to the coming of our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus, for the End is near; the End of Evil and the Beginning of Life.

On the outside looking in
wondering what it might have been
if Adam and Eve had chosen love for You
rather than what set creation askew

I can count on one hand those who’d know
what the following words might mean
“one foot here and one foot there
existing somewhere in between”

Not of this world
not yet of the next
can leave a person
quite perplexed

On the outside looking in
Your truth has opened my eyes
this jewel has lost its luster
I watch its own demise

One foot here and one foot there
and a passage that I’ve yet to earn
not of this world, not of the next
for my sake You help me not to yearn

Your work is not yet completed
and it’s Your timing not mine
I am Your humble servant
who's faith says it will all be fine

Inside and outside
around and about
above and beyond
there’s no single doubt

a plan is in place to restore this fine gem
and whether I’m here or there
or existing somewhere in between
there will be a day when we convene

I await Your son, my dear Father
And the day all evil will be destroyed
for those who sow in tears
will reap with shouts of joy
