Think on this: “You descendants of Abraham my friend…I am Yahweh, your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you. Do not be afraid, O worm Jacob, O little Israel, for I myself will help you, declares Yahweh, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.” (Isaiah 41: 8, 13-14)
Pray on this: Father, as you have instructed us to pray, grant that we may “Be always on the watch and to pray that we may have the power to escape all that is about happen, and that we may be able to stand before the Son of Man.” (Luke 21:36)
Comforting words indeed JIM. Only the HOLY ONE of ISRAEL, YAHWEH, GOD can offer that kind of assurance. Let GOD be true, and every man a liar.
Yes, of a truth! YHWH is true and His Word has proved it throughout the ages, He will do all He said, look everyone born – dies… There is a 2nd death it is spiritual also. May YHWH open the hearts of the soul to perceive what He has purposed in heart that none has yet understood..
Good report Jim, Faith building teaching.
It is dis-function that Yahweh uses to cause people to look to the lord for help. Our leaders , and it doesn’t make a difference if they are republican or democrat, have lost their identities as representatives of the people. They need money to stay in office and that is what they seek and answer to first. They are trapped by the system. All political offices from the local level to the national level are controlled by money. so, how in the world can Yahweh change this? Is this the way he wants it? Recent Supreme Court decisions have made more money flow to political dis-function. The economic collapse, worldwide, in my opinion is setting the stage for the end of the age final harvest of souls as described in the bible. I believe it has already started. It will take Yahweh to clean it up. That is my prayer.
Another verse that ties in beautifully with your message: Acts 2:25. David says of Him, “I was always beholding the Lord in my presence, for He is at my right hand that I may not be shaken.”
Amen and Amen! I have rested in and on these verses many, many times in my Christian walk. Especially lately. The Lord has a way to awaken scripture in our lives when we need it the most.
May I say that before the elections, I was feeling that finally, we were going to have a religious majority in the Knesset and that we were going to have a nationalistic Israel where there would be no compromises with out security. Then the elections took place and then impossible horror of Lapid-Bennett Alliance. We have more drum G-d fearing members in the Knesset alright but we have only the opposite, arrogant and self-serving people of them in the government. They are leaving out all the truly religious parties. My party is the Yahadut HaTorah who are the only ones (with Shas) dedicated to keeping Torah as the primary goal. Now they are both left in the cold with moral depravity and compromise and self-hating Jews at the helm. There must be something in store for us with this lack of Fear of Heaven.
