Pray
“…Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder”…Matthew 26:36
Ladies, there are times when you need to be able to pray, on your own. You may not always be able to get someone on the phone to pray with you or for you. In these times you need to go to the Father yourself. It could be that He is calling you to pray. Not for you to call on someone else but for you to come to Him. He wants to hear from you.
Just like Yahusha went to the Father to pray, you must be willing to go. You must be willing to set aside time alone with Him. Just like you set aside time to do everything else, you must be willing to set aside time to pray.
You may say, “But I don’t know how to pray. I don’t know how to begin. I don’t know what to pray.” Below is an acrostic, A.C.T.S., that will help you during your prayer time. It is an easy way to remember key elements of prayer. It’s simply prayer in four parts:
Adoration – “…Blessed be Elohiym” - Psalms 68:35. Tell Elohiym how much you appreciate Him. Express your love for Him. Praise His power and majesty. This is a great way to begin your prayer time. Praise Elohiym for the beauty of His creation. You should never run out of praise. “…How terrible art thou in thy works!...” - Psalms 66:3
Confession – “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” - 1 John 1:9. Tell Elohiym where you have fallen short. Be specific. Thank Him for the forgiveness you have in Mashiach and ask for help and strength to turn away from future temptations.
Thanksgiving – Always “…magnify Him with thanksgiving” - Psalms 69:30. You have plenty of reasons to be thankful. Thank Elohiym for His love, His faithfulness, His patience and a million other things. Express gratitude for what He’s doing in your life. Thank Yahusha for dying on the cross for you. Thank the Ruach Hakodesh for indwelling you, and never leaving. Thank Him for being your conscience, your counselor and that “still small voice.” If you can’t think of anything to say, just say, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. Continue until the Ruach Hakodesh lets you know to stop.
Supplication – “…Let your requests be made known unto Elohiym.” - Philippians 4:6. Let your requests be made known to Elohiym, no matter how small or petty it seems to you. Do you really think any of your requests are big to Elohiym the Creator of all? You should also have lots of intercessory prayer requests during this time. You may even find yourself praying for others more than you are praying for yourself.
When you pray, pray the scriptures. Pray Elohiym’s word back to Him. Remind Him of his promises. Remind Him of what He says. Open your Bible and pray the scriptures. Before you know it, you won’t need to open the Bible to read the scriptures. They will be imprinted on your mind and in your heart and flow out of you.
Luke 18:1 says, “…Men ought always to pray and not to faint”. Pray! Pray! Pray!
Read: James 5:16, 1 Thessalonians 5:17, Psalms – there are many prayers in this book.

Sabbath Observance
Below are a few things I believe we should and should not do on the Sabbath. Seek Yahuah (the Lord). He will give you clear guidance and understanding of the scriptures on what you should and should not do. Whatever He says, that is what you do.
What we should and should not do on the Sabbath.
1. Remember – Exodus 20:8-11, “Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy”. Holy means to be set apart. Yahuah has only asked for one day out of seven days. Keep the focus on Him and set this one day apart for Him. Rest, read scriptures, pray, study. The point is to keep your focus on Yahuah. As you meditate on Him, He will refresh your soul (mind, emotions and your will).
2. Rest, don’t work, Exodus 35:2. Do not do any work that will cause you to receive income/earn money. No cleaning. No household chores. Keep your focus on Yahuah.
3. No Cooking, Exodus 35:2-3. Do not kindle any fire (stove, oven). Prepare meals you will eat on Saturday (breakfast and lunch) on Friday, the preparation day. Do not order food that will cause someone else to work (i.e., restaurants, preparers of food, drivers to bring the food to you, etc.). At sundown on the Sabbath you can cook, order food, or go out to eat.
4. Don’t buy or sell. Keep this day set apart for Yahuah. Nehemiah 10:31, Nehemiah 13:15-21. In addition to buying food.
5. No pleasures of your own, Isaiah 58:13-14. Do not do what you want to do. Do what ministers to Yahuah. You can do what it says in Matthew 25:34-36, feed the hungry, give drink to the thirsty, take in the stranger (very hard to do now a days. You must be led by Yahuah for yours and your families safety), clothe the naked, visit the sick, visit those in prison. As Yahuah said in Matthew 25:39, “…Inasmuch as ye have don’t it unto one of the least of these you have done it unto Me”.
NOTE: I do not believe you must do all that is listed in Matthew 25:34-36 at the same time. Whatever Yah is leading you to do, that is what you do. Seek Him and do what He says for you to do.
6. Fellowship with other believers, Luke 4:16-21. Make every effort to fellowship with other believers. Seek Yah, He will let you know what to do and how to do it. Acts 13:14, 42, 44, Acts 16:13, Acts 17:1-2, Acts 18:4, Hebrews 10:24-25
7. Reflect on the Gospel. Read/Meditate/Study the Word. 2 Timothy 2:15. If you are unclear about something, ask Yahuah to reveal it to you. He will.
Read: Ezekiel 37, the valley of the dry bones.
We are the dry bones.

Remember the Sabbath Day
“Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.”…Exodus 20:8
Yahusha (Jesus) said in John 14:15, “If you love me, keep my commandments”. One of the commandments He was referring to is Exodus 20:8, “Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy”.
Merriam-Webster’s definition of Sabbath: the seventh day of the week observed from Friday evening to Saturday evening as a day of rest and worship; a time of rest.
The Sabbath Day is a day of rest. To rest from the work you have done all week. A time for renewal, a refreshing. A time to thank Yah (the Lord) for all He has done during the week. To thank Him for all He is getting ready to do in the coming week. A time just to focus on Elohiym (God). Give Him all the praise, all the glory, all the honor. He deserves it all.
Why? Because He commanded you to do so in Exodus 20:8. Elohiym is a jealous Elohiym (Exodus 34:14, Deuteronomy 6:15). He wants you to take time to spend with him. Not cleaning. Not cooking. Not shopping. But with Him. After all, he has given you six other days of the week to do all those things. Take one day out of your week, the seventh day and spend with Him. You will be so glad you did.
I ask you to search the scriptures and see what Yahuah (the Lord) says to you about the Sabbath. He will minister to you through the scriptures. Listen to Him and do what He says. Because of how and what we have been taught, it may be difficult to get started. As you endeavor to follow Yah and His commandments, He will lead and guide you.
Once we keep Yahuah’s commandments and do what He says in 2 Chronicles 7:14 then He will keep His word and do what He says in 2 Chronicles 7:15.
If you love Yah, keep His commandments (John 14:15).

Trust in Yahuah
“Trust in YAHUAH with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.”…Proverbs 3:5-6
Yah is saying at this very moment to trust in Him. I know things might not look good. They might not feel good. They might not even be good. But it is not about how things look. It is not about how you feel. It is not even about how things actually are. It is about what His Word says. He is saying emphatically at this moment to trust Him. Trust Him. Trust Him. Trust Him. Do not lean on what you understand. Acknowledge Him and He will direct your path. You may be in a seemingly impossible situation, but Elohiym has the final say. He specializes in the impossible. What is impossible with man is possible with Elohiym (Matthew 19:26, Luke 1:37).
Read the encounters in the Bible of the burning bush, where Elohiym parted the Red Sea. When the priests stepped in the water, it parted, and they stepped in on dry ground. Where He healed the woman with the issue of blood, raised Lazarus from the dead, healed Bartimaeus of blindness and countless other impossibles.
YES, HE IS IN CONTROL. TRUST HIM!
I know I uploaded an encouragement on June 19, 2024, with this same scripture but it is pressing in my spirit to send this scripture NOW.
Love you all

Possible with Elohiym
“…The things which are impossible with men are possible with Elohiym.”…Luke 18:27
Elohiym (God) is staying on the topic of things that are impossible with men are possible with Him. He wants you to know that He is the Elohiym of the impossible. There is nothing He cannot do. Nothing too hard for Him (Jeremiah 32:17, 27). Last week we learned Merriam-Webster’s definition of impossible.
I don’t know what you are believing Him for or what you are going through. It seems like there is no way out. It seems like there is no possible way you will be able to make it through. No matter how you look at it. No matter how you try to make sense of it, there is just no way. He knows what the doctors are saying. He knows what your bank account says. He wants you to know that He is IT. All things are possible in Him.
He wants you to know that He is the way. He wants you to know that He is ABLE. Surrender all to Him. It doesn’t matter what man says, it only matters what Elohiym says. I encourage you to take whatever it is to Elohiym in prayer. Get away and spend time with Him. Reading the Word. Meditating on the word. Building your faith and trust in Him. Pay attention when the scripture is speaking to you and your situation. Listen for the still small voice of Elohiym speaking to you. If He gives you instructions, follow them. If He says something to you, you can stand on it. Whatever He says, will come to pass. Hold on to His word. Put Him in remembrance of His word (Isaiah 43:26). Repeat it to Him often. Remind Him of what He said to you. Say something like this, “YAHUAH (LORD) this is what You said, (repeat what He said to you). I believe You and I stand on Your Word. There is no other. If You don’t do it, it won’t get done.”
Read passages in the Bible that tells of the miracles Elohiym performed. It is the same Elohiym. The Elohiym back then, is the Elohiym of today. Believe Elohiym. He is not a man that He should lie, neither the son of man that He should repent. Has He said and shall He not do it? Or has He spoken and shall He not make it good?...Numbers 23:19.
All things are possible to him that believe. Hold on to what Elohiym says, He is ABLE.

Nothing is Impossible for Elohiym
“For with Elohoym nothing shall be impossible.”…Luke 1:37
I want to encourage you today that NOTHING is IMPOSSIBLE for Elohiym (God). He can do ANYTHING. I want that to sink in for a minute. Take some time to meditate on those words. Let them get deep down in your ruach (spirit). Then start praising Yahuah (the Lord) for being such a great and powerful Elohiym. For letting us know that nothing is impossible for Him.
A few Merriam-Webster definitions of nothing are: not any thing, no thing, no part. Merriam-Webster defines impossible as felt to be incapable of being done, attained, or fulfilled; insuperably difficult. Anything is defined as any thing whatever, any such thing.
So, if we take those definitions and apply them to Luke 1:37 we will see that there is not any thing, no thing, no part that is insuperably difficult or incapable of being done, attained, or fulfilled by Elohiym. He can do it all.
That wayward child that you have been praying for for years. They seem to keep getting worse and nothing better. I encourage you to keep praying. Keep seeking Elohiym on their behalf. He hears you and will answer your prayer. The effectual fervent prayers of a righteous man avails much (James 5:16).
Those finances that you just can’t seem to get together. You seem to have more month than money. I encourage you to submit your finances to Yah. Thank him for every penny He gives you. It is He who gives you power to get wealth (Deuteronomy 8:18). Ask Him to show you how to spend your money and what to spend it on. When you go shopping and you don’t spend as much as you thought you would, thank Yah. After all it was Him working in the midst.
Your marriage seems to be falling apart and you don’t know what to do. Submit your marriage to Elohiym and watch him work things out with you and your husband. A threefold cord is not quickly broken (Ecclesiastes 4:12). Committ your marriage to Elohiym. Don’t do what your flesh wants to do. Don’t do what the world says to do. Don’t do what your girlfriends are saying to do. Do what Elohiym says to do. It doesn’t matter if your husband has already filed the divorce papers and both of you have signed them. Yah can still restore your marriage.
You may have sickness in your body, or you are waiting on a report from the doctors. I encourage you to submit it all to Elohiym. He knows exactly what to do. He said in the last sentence of Exodus 15:26 that He is YAHUAH who heals thee. I want to also encourage you to read the first part of Exodus 15:26 to ensure you are abiding by His Word. It is His Word that He will keep. Psalm 138:2 says that He has magnified His word above His name.
Your job, your coworkers, your family members, anything. Submit them ALL to Yah. Everything that concerns you, concerns Him. Nothing is impossible for Him.

Draw Close to Elohiym
“Draw nigh to Elohiym, and he will draw nigh to you…”…James 4:8
Merrian-Webster defines nigh as close, near. If you draw close to Elohiym (God), He will draw close to you. In drawing close to Elohiym, you must remember that everything cannot go with you. The luggage and baggage you have picked up from the world over the years cannot go. You must be willing to let go of some things. You must be willing to let go of hate, dislike, unforgiveness, deceitfulness, past hurts, foul language, worldly habits. All the things that keep you separated from Elohiym. He is holy and anything unholy cannot enter into his presence.
As you draw close to Elohiym and He draws close to you, you will actually want to let go of things. You will want to turn your life around and live a life dedicated to Him. As you sit in His presence, praying, worshipping, singing psalms and hymns, making melody in your heart to Him (Ephesians 5:19) and being filled with the Ruach Hakodesh (Holy Spirit), Yahuah (the Lord) will put in your ruach (spirit) things you need to let go.
He is such a kind and gentle Father. As you release things to Him and let Him know you want them removed, He will just take them away. One day you will notice the foul language is gone. The dislike you had for your enemy is gone. You don’t think about the past hurts anymore, they are a thing of the past. You only think about the goodness of Yahuah and all He has done for you. Repentance and forgiveness will be in your ruach and on your lips. When this happens, begin to praise and thank Him!!! He is worthy of it ALL.
The Word of EIohym says in Matthew 7:13-14, “Enter ye in at the straight gate…because straight is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it”. The way to Elohiym is a straight path and a narrow way. You must be willing to follow His commands and do what He says. As you make up in your mind to enter in at the straight and narrow gate and start to move in Yah’s direction, He will draw close to you.
Choose life that you and your seed shall live (Deuteronomy 30:19).

Trust In Yahuah
“Trust in YAHUAH with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths”…Proverbs 3:5-6
I want to encourage you to trust in Yahuah (the Lord) in ALL situations with ALL your heart. He will never leave you nor forsake you. How do I know this? Because it is written in His word in Hebrews 13:5, “…for He has said, I will never leave nor forsake thee”. You can take Him at His word. You can trust His word.
Lean not unto your own understanding. A lot of times we make decisions with our heart. We make decisions based on how we feel. The Bible says in Jeremiah 17:9, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” With that said, you cannot trust your heart to help you make the right decision. You must always take your heart to Yah (the Lord) and ask Him for guidance. Let Him direct your path. He may answer before you can get the prayer out of your mind or out of your mouth or you may have to wait. Believe me, I am a witness. He will answer. He will show up on time. Hallelu-Yah!!!
It doesn’t matter what you need directions for. It may be spiritual, spouse, children, job situations, medical, financial concerns. It does not matter. Yah stands ready to direct your path. He is a loving, caring Father and is concerned about what concerns you. Yes, He knows everything. Yes, He is the Master of the universe. Yes, He can take care of your problem without you asking. But He wants you to spend time in prayer talking to Him. Pouring your heart out to Him (Psalms 62:8). He wants you to spend time praising and worshipping Him. Let him know what is going on in your life. After all we were created for His good pleasure (Isaiah 43:7, Revelations 4:11).
I want to encourage you to acknowledge Him in every situation. Merriam-Webster defines acknowledge as: to recognize the rights, authority, or the status of; to express gratitude or obligation for; to take notice of; to make known the receipt of; to recognize as genuine or valid. Recognize the rights, authority and status of Elohiym (God). Express your gratitude for being able to come to Him. Take notice of who He is in your life. Make known to others who He is and what He has done in your life. Your testimony may be just the thing that someone needs to help them in their life. Acknowledge Him for who He is. He is worthy of all the praise, all the honor and all the glory!!!
Yah’s promises in scripture are for His people. You can only claim His promises if you belong to Him. If you have not given your life to Mashiach (Christ), I encourage you to do so. Give your life to Him. Claim His promises. Walk in total victory that He will do just what He said.

Give Elohiym Glory and Thank Him
I want to encourage you never forget to give Elohiym (God) glory and thank Him.
When you wake up in the morning, greet Him with an attitude of gratitude. Give thanks with a grateful heart. Give Him glory and thank Him for waking you up to start another day. Thank Him for keeping you as you slept through the night. Thank Him that he woke you up with use of your limbs and in your right mind. Thank Him.
Throughout the day give him glory and thank Him for all the things He does for you. Thank Him for bringing you to work safely. That could have been you in that car accident you passed on your way to work. Thank Him for reminding you when you would have otherwise forgotten about your child’s Doctor’s appointment. You were able to reschedule the appointment or be dismissed from a meeting so you could take them to the appointment. Afterwards you were able to spend some much-needed quality time with them. Thank Him for keeping you in good health. You don’t have any debilitating diseases. You have use of all your limbs and your mind. You can think and make sound decisions and do not use any assisted devices to get around. Thank Him.
At the end of the day before you lie down or when you lie down, thank Him for all He has done for you on that day. Thank Him for just being Elohiym. Thank Him for who He is. Thank Him for being Yahuah (Lord) of your life. Thank Him for bringing you out of darkness into the marvelous light. Thank Him for saving you from yourself. If He does nothing else for you, He has done more than enough already. Thank Him, Thank Him, Thank Him. Yah loves it when you thank Him.
I am reminded of a story in Luke 17:11-19 where Yahusha (Jesus) healed ten lepers. During those times, lepers were not allowed to congregate with the people. They had to stay separated. As Yahusha entered the village, the men said to Him, “…Yahusha, Master, have mercy on us” (Luke 17:13). Yahusha saw them and said unto them, “…Go shew yourselves unto the priests” (Luke 17:14). As they were on their way to the priests, they were cleansed. One of the men “when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified Elohiym, and fell down on his face at his feet, giving Him thanks” (Luke 17:15-16). Yahusha said, were there not ten men cleansed? Where are the other men? There has not returned to give Elohiym glory but this one (Luke 17:17-18). Yahusha said unto him, “arise, go thy way, thy faith has made thee whole” (Luke 17:19). Because the man said thank you, he was made whole.
With my spiritual imagination, I imagine when Yahusha said, “thy faith has made thee whole”, the man was not just physically cleansed of leper, everything about the man was made whole. His family, his finances, his mind, his thoughts, his ruach (spirit), his soul (mind, emotions, will), his relationships. Everything. All because he returned, glorified Elohiym and said, “Thank You”.
So you see, it is very important for you to take time to glorify Elohiym and thank Him for all He does for you. No matter how great or how small. It doesn’t matter if no one else says thank you, you must always say thank you so Elohiym can make you whole.
Read Ephesians 5:20, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, Psalm 118:24, Colossians 3:15, Psalms 107:1.

Forgive
“For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.” …Matthew 6:14-15
This scripture is self-explanatory and straight to the point. Merriam Webster defines trespass as violate; an unlawful act committed on the person, property, or rights of another; sin.
I believe this scripture is saying that if you forgive men when they commit violations, unlawful acts and sin against you, then your heavenly Father will forgive you when you commit violations, unlawful acts and sin against another, to include Himself. But if you do not forgive men when they commit violations, unlawful acts, and sin against you, then your heavenly Father will not forgive you when you commit violations, unlawful acts, and sin against another.
I know we would like to think that we would never, ever trespass against another but I am here to tell you that you do trespass. Romans 3:23 says, “for all have sinned and come short of the glory of Elohiym (God).” All that is mentioned in this scripture is you. It’s me. We are all in need of a savior.
In order for our Father to forgive us, we MUST forgive others. There is no specific thing that is listed. We must forgive. Period. No matter what was said. No matter what was done. No matter how long ago or near it happened, we MUST forgive.
I know it may be the hardest thing you will ever have to do but please forgive. Seek help from Yahuah. He will be there with you through the entire process. He will give you the strength you need. Forgiveness may not be instant, but He will be there every step of the way. “Draw nigh unto Elohiym and He will draw nigh unto you…” (James 4:8)
People will sometimes say, “I can never forgive him or her….” “You don’t know what they did.” Of course they would be correct in saying this. I don’t know but Abba Father knows. And yet He still inspired the writer of Matthew to pin this scripture to forgive. He knows you can’t do it on your own and need His help. Surrender all to Him.
When you say you forgive it must be from the heart. Don’t just say it with your mouth. You must believe and say it with your heart. You may be able to fool man into believing you, but you can never fool Elohiym. Remember man looks at the outer appearance (what you said with your mouth), but Elohiym looks at the heart (the real you) (1 Samuel 16:7).
I adjure you to forgive that Abba Father may forgive you. Once forgiveness has taken place, you will walk with a clean heart, clear mind, and thoughts.

Elohiym is Not a Sugar Daddy
Let me expound on last week’s encouragement in Ephesians 3:20, “Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think…”.
Yahuah (the Lord) is not a sugar daddy or a genie. Your wish is not His command. You cannot use your womanly ways on Him to get Him to do or give you what you want. You cannot contact Him only when you want something. Other than asking for things, you don’t spend any time with Him. You don’t spend time reading His Word, worshipping Him, praising Him, thanking Him or just sitting and talking to Him (praying).
He does not stand ready to give you everything you ask. He gives according to His will. Because He created you, He knows what’s best for you. He knows what’s coming down your road of life. He knows the plans He has for you (Jeremiah 29:11). Jeremiah 1:5 says that before He formed you in the belly, He knew you. Before you came forth out of the womb, he sanctified you and ordained you a prophet unto the nations. He created every cell and molecule in your body. You see since He knows you so intricately, He knows what’s best for you.
Repent, ask Yah for forgiveness, receive forgiveness by faith, forgive yourself, then walk in His will and His way. Accept Yahusha (Jesus) as Yahuah and savior of your life. Let Him order your steps (Psalms 27:23). Once you know the will of the Father and let him orchestrate your life, you will not want or ask for things that He does not want. You will only want what He wants. You will not petition Him for worldly things, things of the flesh. As you draw closer to Him you will begin to petition Him for what He wants.
How will you know what He wants, you may ask. Take time to ask Him. He will tell you. Set aside time each day to worship Him, praise Him, thank Him, and read His word. Set aside time to study His word so you will know His promises to you and what He expects of you. This may mean that you will need to get up a little earlier or go to bed a little later. Believe me, it is worth it.
Surrender your will to the will of the Father. Watch Him work great and marvelous things in your life. Watch Him do exceeding abundantly above all that you can ask or think according to the power that works in you.

Yahuah is Able
“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,”…Ephesians 3:20
Just like the scripture says, Yah IS able. He is able to do exceeding, abundantly above all that you can ask or think. He can do the impossible. There is nothing, Not One Thing, He can not do.
He is able to save your children. He is able to save your marriage. He is able to fix your finances. He is able to heal your body. He is able to restore your mind. Not only is He able, He is willing. He says in Matthew 7:7-8, “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened.” If you never ask, you never seek, you never knock, you will never know what Yah can do. You will never know how He can save your children, restore your marriage, fix your finances, heal your body, fix the problems on your job. You will never know the extent of His love for you. You will never know His grace and His mercy.
He can do all these things by the power that works in us. That power is your faith. You must have faith (Mark 11:22) and do not waiver (Romans 4:20) that what you have asked, Yah will perform (Romans 4:21). Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of Elohiym (Romans 10:17). Increase your faith daily. Keep the Word of Elohiym always in your mouth and in your heart. Spend time reading and studying your Bible. Read out loud to yourself so you can hear the word. Meditate on the scriptures. Ponder them in your mind. Read the accounts of the miracles Yahusha performed. How He healed the woman with the issue of blood (Luke 8:43-48). How He brought Jairus’ daughter back to life (Luke 8:49-55) and countless others. You will begin to see the power of Yahusha. He is not a respector of persons (Romans 2:11). He did it for them, He can do it for you. He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6). He loved them. He loves you.
Elohiym’s promises are for those who have accepted Him as yahuah and savior of their lives. I encourage you to repent of your sins, both known and unknown. Give your life to Him (Psalm 25:1-12, Romans 10:9-10) and follow his commands. Let Him be in control of all your days. Trust His word. Fill yourself to overflowing with His word. Sing songs, hymns and spiritual songs, making melody in your heart to Yahuah (Ephesians 5:19). Yah stands ready with open arms. Willing to forgive you of all your sins (Psalm 103:12). He is ready to wipe your slate clean and give you a new mind, a new life in Him.
There is nothing Yah can not do. So, whatever problems you have, whatever you are going through, take it to Him in prayer. Let Him work things out for your good and His glory. He is more than able.
“Draw nigh to Elohiym, and He will draw nigh unto you”…James 4:8

From the beginning, Elohiym (God) set up the marriage. He said, “…it is not good that man should be alone; I will make a help meet for him…He caused a deep sleep to fall upon man,…he took one of his ribs…and he made a woman”. (Genesis 2:18, 21-22) Merriam Webster definitions of “Help”: to give assistance or support to (someone): to provide (someone) with something that is useful or necessary in achieving an end.
We were created as a help to our husbands. Not to rule over them. When Eve sinned in the garden, Elohiym said to her, “your desire shall be to your man, and he shall have rule over you”. (Genesis 3:16)
Paul says in 1 Corinthians 11:3, “…that the head of every man is Mashiach (Christ); and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Mashiach is Elohiym.” We have let our fleshly desires and the world tell us how our marriages should be instead of listening to our ruach (spirit) and obeying Elohiym. “…walk in the ruach, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the ruach, and the ruach against the flesh…”. (Galatians 5:16-17)
The world would have us to think and do the opposite of what Yah (the Lord) says. We must get back to Elohiym. Start living our lives in accordance to His will and His way. Doing and living how He created us. Not doing and living how the world and our flesh says. Remember, satan is in control of this world, and he wants to do the opposite of what Elohiym says. Over time the devil has subtly snuck in. (Matthew 13:28) Changing things a little at a time.
Women, I know this is not an easy task to let the husband be head of the house. Especially today when it seems like the world is pushing the woman to be in control and lead everything. We should not be listening to the world but listening to Elohiym. He will give you instructions. I encourage you to commit to follow the pattern created by Elohiym. Come out of the world. “…whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of Elohiym” (James 4:4) I know it may seem hard to change and break away from the world system. You can’t do it alone. Depend on Yah, HE CAN DO ANYTHING. (Ephesians 3:20, Luke 1:37)
Sometimes we use our womanly ways to manipulate our husbands into doing what we want. If you have done this, I encourage you to take your heart to Elohiym, repent and ask for forgiveness. Keep your husband in prayer that he hears from Yah for your lives. (Psalms 62:8) Ask him to show you how to live how He created you to live. He will give you an answer of peace. You may not like the answer but believe me, He knows what you need. He knows what is best for your life. Elohiym loves you. He would never do anything to hurt you. Remember we were created for His glory, to praise Him (Isaiah 43:7, 21), for His good pleasure (Philippians 2:13).

Trials
Trials in our lives are not always from the devil although we would love to think so. There are times I believe Yah will take you through trials to prove you. I believe this is a test of your faith. A test of your conviction. To see if you really believe and trust Yah like you say you do. Consider the story in the Bible about Daniel in the lion’s den (Daniel 6) and Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego when they went in the fiery furnace (Daniel 3). Elohiym didn’t deliver them from going through the trial. He delivered them in the midst of the trial. Daniel had to go into the lion’s den and the Hebrew boys had to go into the fiery furnace. Not only to test and prove their faith but to prove to the world that He IS who He says He IS. He IS Elohiym. He IS a deliverer. He IS faithful. We CAN trust Him. He showed us that if we have faith and trust in Him like they trusted and had faith in Him, He WILL do for us what He did for them. I dare to think what would have happened if they had wavered in their faith and trust, even a little. What the enemy meant for bad, Yah turned it around for their good… Genesis 50:20. Their faith in Yah was strengthened. All the people saw and believed on the Elohiym they served.
When trials come your way. Don’t get discouraged. Don’t get depressed and start wondering what you are going to do. Get up. Pull up your pants or straighten out your dress. Stick out your chest. Start confessing Elohiym’s word. Run the devil away from you…James 4:7. This is the time for you to call on your Elohiym. Just like He delivered Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, He WILL deliver you. He is the Elohiym of his word…Jeremiah 1:12.
Be strong in Yahuah and in the power of His might…Ephesians 6:10
There is nothing too hard for Yahuah. NOT ONE THING👏🏽🙌🏽💃🏽
Be of good cheer I have overcome the world…John 16:33
Trust in YAHUAH with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths...”Proverbs 3:5-6
Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for YAHUAH thy Elohiym is with thee whithersoever thou goest…Joshua 1:9
Keep going. Keep trusting. Keep the faith. Endure unto the end and wait patiently on Yahuah. For He is faithful that promised…Hebrews 10:23. 😇
Love you all
