Spiritual Takeover

Truly the Lord Yeshua is good and His Holy Spirit is ever leading us and more so me. In His grace, mercy and great love towards me He is teaching me and taking over in a way that even I can tell that it is all Him and nothing of me. Just recently I've been corrected about the way I worship by my family, my leaders and my peers but I was obstinate, I was stubborn, and I didn't even knew that I was doing all of these things! But recently I was convicted by the Holy Spirit about this and He told me plainly to humble myself and learn from those around me because He wants to do the work and not me. So I yielded, I submitted to the Holy Spirit, I didn't know how He was going to do it but I just believed that somehow He will takeover and change the way I worshipped Him. And he did, praise Yahweh. All this happened over the course of this week from Monday to Wednesday, and on Thursday I'd receive my breakthrough for worship. Before we worshipped I once again committed myself to ask the Holy Spirit to takeover and at the very get go He did. I felt that the worship that night was completely different, I wasn't using an iota of my strength at all but I just a drawing of power and strength from deep within me. Even the way I spoke in tongues was no longer pushing it using my own strength but I felt so at rest, at peace, at ease. I didn't need to raise my voice to stir the worship team and congregation to worship but in fact the opposite occurred. The less loud and booming I was, the more harmonious the worship and voices became and the more everyone else worshipped. I was so rested that night and it just flowed and continued on like that whenever I am on worship now. I feel so at ease that it's no longer what I can sing or how loud I am or even thinking how the Holy Spirit's going to takeover. But I just rested and Yeshua was exalted. 

Philippians 2:13
[13] for it is Elohim who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

What's even more amazing was that the moment I received this breakthrough that the Lord Yeshua continued on with the next step in the will and work of Yahweh. Now, I'm given less time to worship because now different nations and Glory Places will be involved with the worship each night. Coincidentally (well, I can't really say that. It is all by the will of Yahweh and His good pleasure) the times when the nations will worship this week would be on Thursday and Sunday, days in which I should be worshipping. I'm not angry, not upset, not even a little perturbed but I am overjoyed because I can clearly see that this is His great love towards me. As though the Holy Spirit was waiting for me to breakthrough and precisely the moment I did He continued on with His work. I'm not even sad about less worship time, I'm just so in awe that it is as though the Lord Yeshua was truly waiting for me before moving on from glory to glory. 

Isaiah 30:18
[18] Therefore YAHWEH will wait, that He may be gracious to you; And therefore He will be exalted, that He may have mercy on you. For YAHWEH is a Elohim of justice; Blessed are all those who wait for Him.

Truly Yahweh is so good, HalleluYah.

Rest of the Spirit

There's not really much to write about for this month. Everything is going smoothly and well. I'm breaking through more and more and my walk with the Lord Yeshua is becoming quite exciting and enjoyable. I mean, it's always been but now it's even more so. Especially now that this truly is the season of the Holy Spirit and He is completely taking over everything. Now everyday even though I'm obviously working and ministering to Yahweh and just being here in His house of prayer, I can really feel His supernatural strength and endowment upon me. With almost every task at hand I'm needed to do whether it is worship or in the gardens or miscellaneous, it feels like I'm on autopilot or in the passenger seat of the car. With whatever work I'm involved in at the present time I can sense that I'm drawing power and strength not from myself but from within myself so I don't feel tired or exhausted spiritually. I mean, physically after hard work then of course I would feel fatigue but I don't feel drained any more but refreshed. Also now every time I step into the sanctuary to worship or pray or just hear the Word of Elohim I become refreshed, every single time. 

The Holy Spirit is truly taking over and it's not about what we can do any more. I believe that the moment we see the limitations of ourselves then the Holy Spirit can take over completely, when we come to an end of our strength or wisdom or experience then He will take over. Because if we can still do something then the Holy Spirit will do nothing, but when we can do nothing the Holy Spirit will do everything. 

John 6:63
[63] It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.

John 15:5
[5] “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

Philippians 2:13
[13] for it is Elohim who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

Honestly speaking this is the easiest I have experienced in my life, ever! By easiest I mean that I can draw from waters that never run dry and be refreshed always, I can continue serving Yahweh knowing personally that it is not what I can do for Yahweh or what I can say for Him. In actual He doesn't need me for His work to be accomplished but because He loves me He involves me in it and gives me the strength to carry out and fulfil His call and work and will. So now, it's no longer me trying to do something for the Lord Yeshua but it is the Holy Spirit Who will glorify Yeshua in and through me. All I need to do is rest in Him by faith. That's it. Praise Yahweh!

Quick Write

There's not much to write about right now. Everything is going exactly to how the Holy Spirit wants it to go so there's no real surprise there, but to say there's no enjoyment would be telling a fib in itself. Having our course planned for us removes the burden and the stress of what may be or what is to come and just allows us to enjoy the ride. Like riding in the passenger seat of a car. Having been a driver myself now for who knows how long I always need to look at what's around me to be aware since I am the driver and I can't really take in the views my passengers can enjoy since they're not the ones driving. But praise Yahweh that the Holy Spirit is my driver in a sense that I can now enjoy the things He has prepared for me as He takes the wheel and leads me whenever He wants me to go. So that's what I'm doing now, I'm just enjoying the ride. That's it, that's all...

5 Year Point

It's actually just one day before I mark it down as 5 years having begun serving the Lord Yeshua in this place here called Glory Place. Now reminiscing of what has taken place in my life and the things I've witnessed and experienced while serving Yahweh alongside my brothers and sisters in Messiah, I do not regret it nor have I any intention of slowing it down one bit. Things are truly picking up the pace even now as the Holy Spirit is moving in such a quick and brisk pace, completing the work that He had begun in each and everyone of us not just here but everywhere where the people of Yahweh are named. 

Even now I can clearly tell plain as day that the Holy Spirit is cleansing me in every areas of my life. This is something that I myself had always wanted to see for myself and now I am. In the areas where I still have yet to fully breakthrough He is taking it over one by one and completely setting me free to be able to give myself more to Him more and more everyday. For example in the area of music, I used to listen to Christian Rock because I had thought that since it was a Christian band then it was still fine but during the 10 days of the prayer advance my emotions were just going haywire and it nearly came to the point where I would have imploded and blown my top. But praise Yahweh He protected me and did not allow this to take place, because as I was reaching the boiling point the Holy Spirit revealed to me that although I had given up the world's rock music I had not yet actually confessed nor repented of it. So I did, and when I broke the curse immediately my emotions all soothed itself and I was in control once again. 

This is just one of the many areas He is concurrently working on in my life right now. As I see and remember I have been set free in many areas already but yet there is still much cleansing to be done and thankfully it is not what I can do myself to be good. 

Philippians 2:13
[13] for it is Elohim who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

I had not realised how timely this is, nearing the 5 year mark how quickly the time flies and things have changed. Seeing all my old posts I realised I had changed somewhat and it wasn't me myself that was the one striving to change to be a better person but it was entirely the Holy Spirit so all glory goes to Him. 

1 Corinthians 15:10
[10] But by the grace of Elohim I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of Elohim which was with me.

It will only get better from here, as I continue to look unto Yeshua the Author and Finisher of my faith I can truly see His glory filling each and every one of us. Praise Him for all things He has given, that He has done, and for the greater things her to come. Truly, praise Yeshua. Halleluyah.
