Ezekiel 22:30 “I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for the land, so that I would not destroy it; but I found no one.”
Brothers and sisters, we are living in some very tough times! The adversary is busy seeking out the gullible and the weak, those who can be easily swayed away from the Truth. Don’t give in! Stay strong, stay in the Word. Read it for yourself and allow the Rauch (Holy Spirit) to guide you. Don’t let some armchair scholar interpret Scripture according to their own agenda.
Be a beacon in this dark and dreary, sin-riddled world! Be BOLD in proclaiming the Word; don't let "the world" intimidate you! The world will hate you, but so what? You're not here to please anyone except ADONAI.
The sad thing is, the Bible isn't popular today because our ELOHIM expects His people to be decent, holy, obedient and God-fearing citizens of the Kingdom where there is NO compromise! There is no “tolerance” or “gray area” when it comes to pleasing יהוה. The Bible is clear on that. Never forget that Yeshua DIED for proclaiming the Kingdom and doing everything his Father commanded him to do (Luke 4: 43, 8:1; Acts 28:23. 24:14). If you believe יהוה is God and Yeshua His Divine Messiah, then you must walk like Yeshua walked. (1 John 2:6)
Proverbs 31:8-9: Open your mouth for the mute, for the rights of all the unfortunate. Open your mouth, judge righteously, and defend the rights of the afflicted and needy.
1 Peter 3:12 For ADONAI keeps his eyes on the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayers; but the face of ADONAI is against those who do evil things." 13 For who will hurt you if you become zealots for what is good? 14 But even if you do suffer for being righteous, you are blessed! Moreover, don't fear what they fear or be disturbed, 15 but treat the Messiah as holy, as Lord in your hearts;s while remaining always ready to give a reasoned answer to anyone who asks you to explain the hope you have in you - yet with humility and fear, 16 keeping your conscience clear, so that when you are spoken against, those who abuse the good behavior flowing from your union with the Messiah may be put to shame. 17 For if God has in fact willed that you should suffer, it is better that you suffer for doing what is good than for doing what is evil. (CJB)
I Corinthians 15:58 Wherefore, my Brothers and my beloved, be steadfast, and not weak willed; but be at all times generous in the work of Master YHWH; seeing you know that your labor is not in vain in Master YHWH. (AENT)
1 Peter 5:8-9: Be sober and guarded because haSatan, like a lion, roars and goes about and seeks whom he may devour. 9. Therefore resist him, being steadfast in the Faith: and know that the same sufferings befall your Brothers that are in the world. (AENT)
Mark 10:45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.
TRUTH! The times are becoming increasingly difficult to stand without ridicule. Even among those who claim to follow YHVH, the deceiver is working overtime to derail and distract from the Truth of His word. Thanks for the reminder and encouragement, Sis! We have to keep our focus in the right place.
