As we continue to press toward the mark, the days are raging ahead to test us with temptations, distractions and fortifying fires. With world economy and government leadership in such a frenzy of uncertainty, many Christians are in a state wondering if the government believe and adhere to Biblical prophecy. However, we have to remember no matter how wrong the choices and decisions of political/religious powers seem to make, they too are helping to fulfill what must come to pass. The signs and evidence are more apparent than ever before. It is almost as you can feel the Presence and onset of Yeshua’s return is so very near. What will it take to earn “His” ensigna?
2 Timothy 3:1-7 & 12-17
1This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4Traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 6For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. 13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. 14But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; 15And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
When arriving home the other night, I watched a show on TBN where this man had an after death experience with his deceased son and received a spoken word from the voice of the L'RD. He went on to say how the L'RD said that HE has sent warning after warning after warning to many of HIS prophets/clergyman/disciples who have refused to repent and live a lifestyle according to HIS will. He said the L'RD told him that now many will begin to destruct in/from the Pulpit as they are so-called serving. He said the L'RD said HE is tired of HIS sheep being fleeced. (This reminds me of the sermon that Rabbi Messer delivered to us earlier this year).
Galatians 6:7
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
2 Thessalonians 2:3
Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
Because YHWH(ADONAI) is faithful, and we do call HIM, "FAITHFUL", be reminded of some key Remnant scriptures:
Zephaniah 3:13
The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
Zechariah 8:12
For the seed shall be prosperous; the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things.
Joel 2:32
And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.
Acts 17:28
For in him we live, and move, and have our being;
Be not dismayed, be not deceived, For in HIM we live, and move, and have our being;
Dance is an expression of joy in our lives. It is a physical demonstration of the interior emotion. G’D created us and we are whole beings made up of the body, soul and spirit (don’t separate).Our movements are designed to show forth the Lord within us and to manifest it visually for others. When we dance in response to all the G’D has done for us, in praise or worship, we are “dancing before the Lord”. This term was used in the Bible when describing how King David danced before the Lord with all his might as he responded to the presence and joy of the Lord that he so yearned for.
So if dance becomes an expression of what we have inside of us, then we must be careful what we are placing in our temple (body). What are you feeding your body (physical nutrients)? What are you feeding your soul (study G’D’s Word)? What are you feeding your spirit (intimate time with the G’D)? Whatever you are feeding yourself, that is what will be reflected in your dance.
Some may argue that it’s their gift or anointing that is being reflected. True, at the first spin, maybe at the second raising of your arms, your skills and even your anointing may be reflected, but what moves G’D and those seeking G’D is the reflection of Himself through your movement. If you haven’t eaten from the Bread of Life (The Word), you cannot reflect G’D.
The Tabernacle becomes an excellent model of how sacred dancers can prepare themselves to truly “dance before the Lord”:
·Alter – Salvation. Accepting Jesus Christ as your personal savior.
·Laver – Repentance.Is to accept G’D cleansings and establish holiness in our lives. Repentance is simply to realign yourself to right relationship with G’D. Why is it necessary? Because sin steals our intimacy with G’D.
·Candlesticks – Holy Spirit.The Spirit of G’D gives illumination to our relationship with Him. 1 Cor. 2: 9-12 (NIV) “but G’D has revealed it to us by his Spirit”.
·Table of Shewbread – Word of G’D. His Word feeds us continually. As the shewbread in the Tabernacle was made fresh every day, so is His Word every time we read and study it.His Word instructs us on how to live a life that is holy and pleasing unto Him.
·Alter of Incense – Worship, Intercession, Prayers. Only when you have walk through previous four steps can you truly begin to worship unto G’D.
·Holy of Holies – Manifest presence of G’D. Once we have walked through our own personal ‘tabernacle’, then we can experience a relationship with G’D.
All Christians need to cultivate a life with G’D that is growing and developing. If we are not growing, we will stagnate or die. The corporate, official worship of G-D’s people is a crucial and essential means G’D has given to help us grow. Think of the words of Hebrews 10:19-22 (KJV):
Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; and having an high priest over the house of G’D; let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
This passage calls Christians to draw near to G’D through Christ since, even as Christians, we experience a distance between ourselves and G’D that only the work of Christ can bridge. We need to draw near to him personally and individually.
More to come…Salvation leads to our worship but our journey continues into evangelism. Are you ready?

17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.(Hebr. 13:17 KJV)
1I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. (John 15:1-10KJV)
In John 14:23 we are given not only instructions, but also privileges, assurance and encouragement.(Read John 14 & 15 in its entirety) Regardless of your circumstances, the devastation/destruction that is going on around us, in the far parts of the world or before your very eyes, remember (Matt. 28:20b KJV) the LORD has not forgotten nor deserted us. Our HEAVENLY FATHER sends to us the COMFORTER which is the HOLY SPIRIT. HE shall teach us all things. Become sensitive to the spirit. A priority should be to seek/find who & what you are moving for. Seek and ask G-D in order to find your purpose.
5And they said unto him, Ask counsel, we pray thee, of God, that we may know whether our way which we go shall be prosperous. 6And the priest said unto them, Go in peace: before the LORD is your way wherein ye go.(Judges 18:5-6 KJV) 7But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. 8Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. 9After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.10Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.(Matt. 6:7-10 KJV)
Spiritual gifts are not something that are earned nor given as a reward. The Greek translation of gifts is "charisma", and the root "charis" means grace. In conclusion, they are gifts of G-D's grace and are for service. Because of HIS sovereignty, G-D distributes them as HE so desires. HE decides the who, the what, the how and the when. Have you ever spent time learning choreography, memorizing a speech, studying for a exam, developing a relationship with a person and/or perfecting a piece. In regards to the LORD, expect an even greater outcome and you have to spend quality time and nurture you relationship with G-D. This will help give you substance and root you in the True Vine
Assignment Beings at this Point.
Can you find Jesus in this picture? What about in the picture of your life? Do you see HIM moving in your life? If not, who do you think moved from under HIS covering?Look hard!Guard your spirit-man and mind. Remember where you were in your life/your growth when you first came to know our mentor and when you first came into the REMNANT? Do you remember your first experience of change since the encounter? How many first(s) experiences have you had since then. There is a reason why the encounter(s) were of such impact. Patience (cling to it). Let your spirit lead you with its fruits. The flesh will fill you with strife, indifference, doubt, chaos, foolishness and will cause you to compromise. Ask yourself is it really worth going back to what you use to do or doing things your way instead of G-D's way.
Just as Yeshua chose his disciples, don't we too have the liberty to choose our friends? We don't always choose the right one's; however there is a true measure of a friend. Live well and Live right you wil find that someone. They will be close partners with the word Love. Love is a command and is a must in this walk. The word love falls off the lips of so many who pass thru the doors of our existance. A true friend is someone who will love for a lifetime, and one who will "cherish and like" for an eternity! Key word is LIKE! Don't just blow your heart into the wind, give it a destination so that it can be followed. Choose your friends carefully, trials and tests are the best catalyst and will accurately measure the value and existance of a "TRUE FRIEND". Be Well.... Shalom Lady Michelle
