Walking with and carrying the Presence of God

To me the most profound thing that Moses ever said is recorded in Exodus 33:15 which Moses says if you don’t go with us I’m not going. Moses would not take Israel on its journey without God’s presence. This is a profound revelation. The whole chapter is about the tangible presence of God and staying in step with God presence.

It is God’s presence that made the Israelites distinct from those nations around them. Without God, they were lonely, lost wanderers. With Him, they were following their Mighty Leader in a pillar of cloud by day and fire by night. Continue reading “Walking with and carrying the Presence of God”

Thoughts on relationships in the local Church – Fathers and Mothers

This post maybe confronting for some people. Please know that at times we are all challenged and just take your feelings to God.

The deep longing and desire for us to have a significant and meaningful relationship with God and each other is a major driver for our lives.  This is a God given call in our lives.  When we have genuine connections with God and each other there is real joy.

We then (sometimes) play at church; we sit in a pew looking at the back of someone’s head, sing a few songs, shake hands and say God bless you. But! How often do we walk with people through their troubles, how often do we get to heart issues and really carry each other?  Continue reading “Thoughts on relationships in the local Church – Fathers and Mothers”

Times and seasons – Moed or Kairos vs Chronos time – Harvest Time !

As we conclude 75 days of online Zoom prayer since 19th March 2020 and finish the Pentecost celebration it is worth reviewing its significance in terms of God’s divine timing.

The word Moed (Hebrew: מועד, “Festivals” also “appointed time”) provides specific instructions for the rituals, observances and laws related to holidays and festivals. It also carries the idea of God’s dynamic powerful appointed time. Kairos is an Ancient Greek word meaning the right, critical, or opportune moment.

Feasts of the old covenant fulfilled in Jesus Christ (Yeshua Hamashiach)

Sunset today is the start of Pesach (Passover) and Matzah (Unleavened Bread) which goes until nightfall next Thursday.  So this is a great opportunity to have a look at the feasts of God in the old testament.

There are seven main feasts in the old testament and three of these have a requirement to go up to Jerusalem. Pesach, Shavuot, and Sukkot are the Three Pilgrimage Festivals (Shalosh Regalim) during which the entire population of the kingdom of Judah made a pilgrimage to the Temple in Jerusalem.

The Moedim (Appointed Times) of the Lord are often called the “Jewish Feasts,” but they are not solely for Israel. There are instructions for the “sojourner among you” to be able to participate along with Israel in the Feasts of God. Any follower of the Lord is eligible (but not obligated) to participate. We all will participate in the Olam Haba (the Age to come); see Isaiah 66 and Zechariah 14 when all of these feast are fulfillied in Christ. Continue reading “Feasts of the old covenant fulfilled in Jesus Christ (Yeshua Hamashiach)”

Jesus Christ the Passover Lamb

Passover

In the last few days the word Passover (פֶּסַח‎ Pesach in Hebrew) has come in prayer and worship as a prophetic statement from the Lord. It is time to declare Passover over the current world situation. This plague will pass over when we have the Blood of the Lamb over our lives.

Let’s consider what the true Passover is. First, it is the story of the final plague of Egypt (Angel of Death) passing over the Israelites who were captive in Egypt. (Exodus 12:12-13) All who had the blood of a sacrificial lamb painted on the door posts were saved from the death plague. It is in the Passover Lamb we are delivered.

Wuhan Coronavirus, Wars and Rumours of Wars, Men’s Hearts Failing

Prayer

In the last little while many Christians have been commenting on the Wuhan Coronavirus, and even some conspiracy theories regarding all sorts of situations which I won’t repeat.  Bluntly this means some believers’ focus is way off.

Matthew 24 tells of wars, rumours of wars, pestilences, earthquakes, lawlessness, and deception.
It is obvious that these things are happening, and time is short. The key to navigating all of these things is in Jesus’ words in verse Matthew 24:6 ‘See that you are not troubled’. Continue reading “Wuhan Coronavirus, Wars and Rumours of Wars, Men’s Hearts Failing”

The Big Three Commandments – reflecting on the past year and new year

Reflecting on this year just finishing and the next year I have been considering what I call “The Big Three Commandments” which are the key to all we do as believers.

It is all about our daily walk with the Lord and Him outworking His purposes in our lives.

  1. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, and strength Luke 10:27
  2. Love your neighbour as yourself
    …then flowing from those two…
  3. Preach the Gospel, making disciples of all nations Matthew 28:18-20

The Blood of Jesus

Nel showed me something about the name Adam today, it contains the word blood in Hebrew!  So, I started digging a bit deeper.  Here are the Hebrew words to consider:

  • אֲדָמָה Adamah – out of the earth God created  Genesis 2:19
  • אָדָם (aleph, dalet, mem) Adam – man
  • אָדַם Adam – the red (i.e. red earth) [same spelling, one different vowel]
  • דָּם (dalet, mem) Blood (dam) – contained in the name Adam

Did the Lord God give a random and meaningless name to his first creation?  Of course not!  The combination of both ‘bloody’ and ‘earthly’ aspects form the original components not only of Adam’s identity, but of the Lord’s message to His creation: this ‘flesh and blood’ man.  We know that the Bible shows the significance of the blood ‘dam’ of living creatures, but it all starts here, in the name ‘Adam’.

What struck me was the idea that salvation through the blood of Yeshua (Jesus) was embedded within the very beginning of our creation.  It is only by the shedding of blood there is forgiveness and salvation (Hebrews 9:22). Continue reading “The Blood of Jesus”

The Miracle of the Australian 2019 Election

Here are some insights on the huge national prayer effort and the 2019 election outcome.   We must recognise and give thanks to the Lord that this prayer effort and His grace has brought about a miracle result.

There were many prayer initiatives around the nation. Many groups, congregations, and individuals have prayed for the  election and the issues surrounding it.  A cry for the innocents killed by abortion, moral issues, and a cry for righteous Government.

There has been more prayer by more Christians in unity for this one main issue than ever before in this nation.  Coupled with things like the Graham Tour and Awakening Australia there is a spiritual change in the nation. Continue reading “The Miracle of the Australian 2019 Election”

Raising a generation of Deborahs

This post is based on a personal word for someone recently, this is the generic version applicable to many of the next generation women of God. There are leaders raising up an Army of Deborahs, Jaels, and Esthers; especially Deborahs. This post is also related to a previous post regarding Jael.

Some of this word may apply to you or not; we trust that the part the Holy Spirit quickens what you need to hear. Continue reading “Raising a generation of Deborahs”

The name of the Lord – with a more complete understanding

The Name of the Lord:   יהוה [updated]

The name of the Lord is known theologically as the Tetragrammaton and consists of 4 Hebrew letters יהוה  yod hey vav hey (right to left) and is usually transliterated into English as Jehovah, Yahweh, or YHWH.  In this post we will look at the meaning of this name and also the meaning of the ancient Hebrew characters that name up the name of the Lord.  Typically in some English translations of the bible the form LORD (all uppercase) is used to denote the name of God.

In Judaism the name of God is not usually written (other than the scriptures, i.e. the Torah) and is usually spoken or written as HaShem (The Name) or Adonai (The Lord) out of reverence for the Lord. The meaning of the word is “I am” or “I continue to be” or even more accurately “the self existent one”.
This also explains why some people write G-d for the Lord especially when written by Jewish people.

We know from the ancient Hebrew each character is derived from a pictograph.  See the chart below. As I have studied this and prayed I felt the Lord show me a deep understanding of His name. Continue reading “The name of the Lord – with a more complete understanding”

Notre Dame Fire – Another understanding

So this morning we wake and find the famous Notre Dame cathedral burning and much speculation about why it happened and who might be responsible especially in terms of the wave of Islamic attacks on Church buildings in France and other nations.

I felt the Lord speak to me this morning with a completely different perspective in that the fire is a prophetic sign to The Church (His Body). Continue reading “Notre Dame Fire – Another understanding”

We need Fathers in the Church, not just instructors or mentors

1 Corinthians 4:15 For though you might have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet you do not have many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.

Paul says something that is more true today than ever, we have many instructors (or mentors #1) but not many true Fathers (and Mothers) in the Church family. Continue reading “We need Fathers in the Church, not just instructors or mentors”
