Have you ever wondered why Yah does not perform the sort of mighty works He performed in the time of Noah, of Abraham, of Moses, of EliYah, of Yahooshua – the flood, fire and brimstone from heaven, the parting of the Red Sea, fire from heaven on a smaller scale, storm calmed, continuous stream of highly visible miracle healings, etc?

One thing to notice in the above examples is that the scale and dramatic scope of events became less with the passage of time and has continued to become less to the present age.

Why is this?

1. The level of relationship of the believers with Yah of those closest to Yah has declined continuously over this period;

2. The level of anointing of the most anointed believers on earth has declined to the point where today Yah says that the most powerfully anointed person on earth today is operating under half the anointing that Yahooshua operated under;

3. The level of authority of the most senior members of Yah's family on earth has also declined in proportion to the above;

4. The number of highly anointed one's has declined;

5. The level of prayer and the nature of prayer has declined;

6. Satan's forces on earth have become much more knowledgeable in direct proportion to the extent to which those who believe have become increasingly ignorant of the matters of Yah and deviated from truth;

7. Satan's forces on earth have become proportionately more powerful and numerous in proportion to the degradation in power and number of the believers – almost the entire Christian church is in fact serving Satan through the wrong names, wrong sabbath, etc, etc – the issues that have been discussed previously on this list.

We have reached a point where for anything really visibly dramatic to happen on Yah's behalf on earth there needs to be a large group of believers in perfect harmony and agreement and at present it is a challenge to get even two who are anointed and committed to agree let alone pray in harmony.

Yah is MASSIVELY HAMPERED by the weakness and lackluster conduct of those of us who claim at some level to have a relationship with Him.  Added to which, if He did want to do something most would argue that it was not in the bible and therefore would not listen to Him.

Have you ever wondered what Noah did without the bible?

There was NO biblical precedent therefore according to most believers today it could not have been Yah who brought the flood.  In fact, Noah would probably be kicked out of just about every church on the planet today if he came warning of coming judgment.

The same can be said of Abraham, Moses, EliYah, Yahooshua – they would all be kicked out of the modern church for failing to submit to the Pastor and teaching doctrines that were not in the bible of their time – in fact, that is basically why Yahooshua was executed – he was doing things that were contrary to the teachings of the Scribes and Pharisees – read "Pastor and church council".

If you have not been kicked out of a church recently you need to ask yourself what you are doing to cosy up to the devil!

So, the bottom line, for Satan to be sent to the Pit, somebody had to do something that was not set out in the bible – if it were set out in the bible in detail Satan would have prevented it from happening, but it happened quietly and without fanfare.

Likewise, Yahooshua will not return in response to wide publicity as keeps happening at present, he said he would come as a thief in the night, NOT appearing to people all over the place telling them he is coming soon and is going to take them away from all this suffering, etc.

What are YOU going to do differently going forward in order to challenge the status quo (Satan in the church) and make a difference on earth for Yah?  -- try praying those prayers I sent you a few days ago every day and doing all the things in the article 2011.03.08 How do I get to a MUCH closer relationship with Yah?

Conclusion

Please think about this and pray about this, it is vital to understand this if you are to overcome in this age and to make a difference in your service of Yah.

May Yah bless you and keep you and make His face to shine upon you and give you peace.

I received the following message a few days ago and, while it uses incorrect names and certain other concepts that i do not fully agree with, i believe the fundamental message IS relevant

We should be prepared to be thrown into the furnace if necessary rather than compromise our faith and we should trust Yah to be there for us in such a situation

May Yah bless you and keep you and make His face to shine upon you and grant you His peace.

 “GOD KNOWS .. AND HE WILL BE THERE”

When you pass through deep waters, I will be with you; your troubles will not overwhelm you.

When you pass through fire, you will not be burned; the hard trials that come will not hurt you.

ISAIAH 43 : 2

GOD, I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND .. I AM A CHRISTIAN .. I DO BELIEVE .. BUT WHY AM I STILL HAVING SO MANY PROBLEMS ?

When you read the above Scripture .. you will notice that as God speaks, He begins each sentence with the words when you ..

Isnt it amazing how so many people are still living each day with this mistaken belief .. The moment I accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior .. my life is going to become really simple .. no more sleepless nights .. no more stress .. no more troubles .. no more problems ..

WHO SAID SO .. We have said so .. We have decided that is how it should be ..

Well it certainly was not Jesus .. in fact in John 16 : 33 He warned us .. In this world you will have tribulations

And it was not God our Father .. because in His Word He Himself is telling us .. When you go through

So we need to get ourselves out of the mindset that when we accept Jesus into our lives .. that He is going to act as our magic wand to remove and take away all of our problems, troubles and worries.

Having real faith in God does not mean that you will never have to walk through some fiery, tough situation ..

What having real faith actually means is this .. Knowing, trusting and having full faith in Jesus Christ .. and walking fully in His spirit means that although the tests and trials will come .. God is able to turn everyone of your burning firestorms into a walk in the park ..

In the book of Daniel 3 .. We are told the remarkable story of three young men .. Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego .. These three boys loved their Almighty Father God so much that when they were ordered by King Nebuchadnezzar to bow and worship the golden idol that he had built, they refused .. when the three boys refused, they did so knowing that their punishment for not obeying the King, was that they would be thrown into a burning furnace .. but they were willing to take their chances in the cruel hands of King Nebuchadnezzar because they had full faith that God would deliver them from the furnace.

And so it was .. the three Hebrew boys were tied together and thrown into the blazing fire.

King Nebuchadnezzar was rather impressed with himself .. the furnace was seven times hotter than normal and he knew that he had surely taught the three young men a good lesson.

But Wait .. as he stared into the furnace to admire his handy work .. what did he see .. what he saw was not one .. not two .. not three .. but four men in the fire .. four men that were untied, walking around in the fire showing no signs of being injured by the flames.

The King was so amazed when he saw this and he was astonished when he realised that the fourth man looked just like the Son of God .. he immediately called the boys out of the furnace and when he inspected them closely he saw that the fire had not harmed their bodies .. not one hair on their heads had been burnt .. in fact they did not even smell of smoke.

King Nebuchadnezzar was so surprised when he saw first hand that the boys had defeated and survived a situation that had destroyed so many other people.

What an amazing story .. and here is why it is so relevant to you today .. you have absolutely no guarantee that you will never have to face some terrifying situations if you believe in God .. but what you can do is declare, with one-hundred percent faith that if you face your circumstance in and with the presence of Jesus Christ that the effects of the circumstances on your life will be drastically and significantly changed.

If you have real faith in God .. you will be given His power to walk through what so many other people have burned in.

There are very few people who will ever truly understand or appreciate the fire that you have personally had to walk through .. but GOD knows .. He knows your fiery walk to victory .. and do not fear .. He is willing and more than able to heal the blisters on your feet .. the feet that have traveled THROUGH the tests and trials that have come up against you.

THE CHALLENGE AHEAD OF YOU IS NEVER AS GREAT AS THE POWER BEHIND YOU
