Gifts

Let’s talk about gifts. Yahweh has given each one of us unique skills, abilities, talents, spiritual gifts, opportunities, etc.  What does Yahweh want us to do with the things He’s given to us?  In this post, I’d like to examine a few scriptures on this subject.  Note that I will simply use “gift” to refer … More Gifts

The Example

The other day I read a passage in 2 Samuel that was encouraging to me.  This is the passage where David wanted to build a house for Yahweh.  Yahweh told him through the prophet Nathan that it would not be David, but one of David’s sons (Solomon) who would build a temple for Yahweh.  Why … More The Example

The Second Arrow

My mom and I have often talked about what we call the “second arrow,” and I thought I’d share some thoughts on it.  Let’s begin in Ephesians 6… Ephesians 6:10-18 — “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. 11 Put on the full armor of Elohim, so that you will … More The Second Arrow

The first story is about Balaam.  I’ll start by giving a brief re-cap of the Balaam story, most of which is … More The Real Battle

Colossians Admonition

Not of Ourselves

I recently read a passage in Judges that sparked a few thoughts.  The passage is about when Gideon was preparing to fight against Midian.  Judges 7:1-7 — “Then Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the people who were with him, rose early and camped beside ]the spring of Harod; and the camp of Midian was … More Not of Ourselves

High Priest

Just a couple encouragements relating to Yahshua our High Priest: Hebrews 4:14-16 — “Since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Yahshua the Son of Elohim, let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has … More High Priest
