Sweetness

So once more we've come to the end of yet another month and I really am amazed at how fast the time just flew. Many peoples are applying leave to seek Yahweh and to fast which leaves little room to manoeuvre but praise Yahweh that at the end of the day the work of Elohim continues not by might, nor by power but by His Spirit He empowers and sustains each and every one of us; both those who are on the field and those taking the watches. The great testimony is that while there is so few of us, the place is yet managed and perhaps at a greater and more consistent pace and the watches though may seem daunting are taken with joy and pleasure and that leaves no room for anything else to enter.

I personally always find it such a pleasure to take the watches because I know that that is the time allotted me to meet with the Lord Yeshua Messiah in His presence and to minister to Him as He does to me. Though sometimes I may come in tired or exhausted, always without fail He will strengthen and refresh me because I realise that that is just what the presence of Yahweh does to someone when they soak themselves continually in it. Even when I don't want to be refreshed He refreshes me still. Praise Yahweh for that.

Anyways, we are about to enter a new month and this time around I find that it is my time to seek Yahweh. Aha! But I have no concern for those who continue because I know that the same Lord is compassionate on all who call upon Him. So I know truly that the Lord Yeshua is and will raise up others besides me to manage and keep His good place until my leave is over. And besides it's only for a few days and not over the course of weeks. In the blink of an eye it will begin and it will be finished Elohim willing. But am I looking forward to that time. For now I think it best we set our sights on what is before us. We may make plans but Yahweh directs the steps of a man. In fact we do not know what tomorrow will even hold, let alone few weeks from now. It's best to focus on today while it is still called today and to set our sights upon the Lord Yeshua, the Author and Finisher of our faith. Praise Him.

Smooth Transition

Another week has passed by and nothing of note has happened as of late. Although perhaps the most pleasing would be that the boys and I were able to complete a full circuit of maintaining the living quarters of Glory Place in approximately a month's time which means that it is not only can be accomplished but also in an acceptable time. Praise Yahweh for that. With the absence of many of our seniors due to fasting and such, there's only so many of us boys but still the work is being done and comfortably too may I add.

Actually that's it from me this week, there's nothing of note to report. All have gone smoothly and as the will of Elohim decreed so. Praise Yahweh for that.

Work Complete

It's been yet another week that has passed by and once more there's nothing really to note of at the moment besides the fact that the Lord Yeshua is truly so good and wonderful even to people such as us. The work around Glory Place is sparse and many but praise Yahweh by His grace and mercy though there be just four of us boys at the moment to manage the entire place it is being managed. By doing little by little here and there the layers upon layers are being maintained and managed properly and the work is progressing at a pace that we are very comfortable with.

Many times the work is very great and if one should look intently they would obviously become concerned since the land is vast and the things needed to be done day after day is ever increasing and changing all the time. Surely if one were to continue looking with physical eyes there will always be something off or something amiss here, there, and everywhere. But when one looks with spiritual eyes one sees the greatest thing of all: the Lord Yeshua. Honestly speaking, there were many times I felt I was about to be overwhelmed with what had to be done to manage the place with as little help as I had but every time Yahweh has always given His Word to deliver and rescue me from all sorts of situations.

[Amo 5:4-5] For thus saith YAHWEH unto the house of Israel, Seek ye Me, and ye shall live: But seek not Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beersheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to nought.

When Yahweh said to seek Him and not the places of Gilgal and Bethel it is actually quite significant and something which the Holy Spirit clarified to me early on. This is to my personal belief, Gilgal represents warfare whereas Bethel represents the house of Yahweh. For Gilgal it was were the children of Israel under Joshua were circumcised once again before they began their wars with the Canaanites and surrounding nations. Bethel of course the place where Jacob anointed the pillar and named the place as the house of Yahweh. And yet Yahweh Himself said to not seek these two places.

I am reminded of my time in the Holy Land where bringing us around one of the tour guides mentioned that this place was where Yeshua did so and so forth. But one thing which he mentioned really stuck to me was that many people get caught up with these incidents that happened in the Bible, these acts but forget completely about the Person Who did them. With that I am reminded of this verse, Yahweh wants the children of Israel to remember more than the places or even the miracles themselves the Miracle Worker firstly. He wants them to seek not the place where His presence is but He Himself as a whole and then it will be well with them.

Likewise so I see for the work handed to me, should I keep looking at the tasks outstanding to be done I would surely just trudge back to my room and perhaps nap the day away to avoid looking into them. But because I see beyond them, I see the Lord Yeshua that gives me strength, power, and anointing not only for myself but for the boys as well. By not overloading the day with so many tasks but giving to each one what they specialise and are able to do well while slowly introducing them to new jobs everything flows really smoothly along by the grace of Yahweh. Because I see the Lord Yeshua the tasks I believe however they are doing He will perfect because He is the Master of His house. And as the Master is able to do all things and wants to do all things, it is our duty to surrender and believe that somehow some way He will and He has not proven me wrong. Praise Yahweh for that.

The Path Ahead

It's been yet another week that's passed by and sure enough all of my previous duties and responsibilities have been reinstated back to me but now with much more room for improvement and growth into it.

Honestly at this moment in time there's not much to write about but the fact that everything that has happened this week only served to show that everything can end as abruptly and suddenly as it first began. There was a death metal band scheduled to perform in Singapore this week and they having landed there already were assured of performing but because we prayed and we took authority over this situation to not let them slide over they were banned by the government to ban as quickly as they had arrived. But on the other side of the coin of course there is warfare as well. Sister Justine inasmuch as she was beginning to recover passed away and went home to the Lord Yeshua.

Everything is happening so quickly that now it is time not to look for other things save to assure our salvation with fear and trembling. To rest our hope in the Messiah and to continue to walk humbly with our Elohim until the very end. This week has just been a reflection of all this and perhaps more so. The time is quickly moving now and everyone can perceive it easily than previous times, therefore it should be time to seek Yahweh while He may still be found and to call upon Him while He is near at hand.

With everyone taking leave either to fast or even to travel overseas shortly I found that the task of maintaining Glory Place doesn't fall on me but instead of man it is now in the hands of the living Elohim to maintain and keep and nurture His house and garden. Through the empowering of His Spirit He gives forth wisdom and strength to the stewards and sons of His house to take over and praise Yahweh that I see that happening. Though there are so few of us handling the farmlands yet there are slowly but surely being maintained not by might, nor by power but by the Spirit of Yahweh. Praise Yahweh for He has taken over.

Now is the time to focus on our walk with the Lord Yeshua. Now is the time to seek for His leading and guidance for His right way. Now is the time to wholly give yourself to Him because if not now then when?
