Walking with God

To walk on the path of life, which is  to walk with God, is a total commitment. It is a serious thing that will require you to understand what's expected of you from God. It is not enough to say you know Him, or follow Him, or that He is your God. It isn't even about attending a Sabbath gathering and hearing the teaching of the holy scriptures. All these thing appear righteous and good, but to walk with God is to completely dedicate your life to obeying Him as the scriptures have said.
This then is a life in which we strive to suppress or rule over our human desire to do what we want to do in order to achieve self-gratification. We strive against what the Bible calls sin- the act of breaking or disobeying God willfully. The Bible states if we know what is right and don't do it then it is sin( James 4:17). Therefore, to walk with God will require our willingness to always pursue what He says is just, equitable, and honest with ourselves and towards others.
We must also understand that because God is holy, He will not pardon willful sin. He is a God of justice and will not have partiality towards anyone that deliberately sins. He will hold such a person accountable(Heb. 10:26,27, 1 John 5:16,17).
However, God also understands, according the scriptures,  that this way of life is not easy for a mortal man to do on his own or out of his own strength(Rom.3:23). Therefore, He provided tools and assistance to the sincere in heart who desire to walk with him(Col. 2:13-14). Our first weapon of defense is faith in the works of Christ our savior(Gal. 2:15,16). He took on the punishment of death for the sins of each of us and of our ancestors. His great works now allows us to seek after God or even to dare to follow Him, because the guilt of sin has been removed that would have prevented us in the past. Next, He provide a guide for us in the publication of the Holy Bible-past down form generation to generation. It fortifies the minds and souls of the believers by it's God inspired writings. It gives the believers the hope and power they need to make it through the days and the centuries, till the day God returns to establish the true order. Finally, God, provided a help for His followers, which He planted in them: the Holy Spirit. He made the Holy Spirit apart of our DNA, so that no matter what happens to us or the world around us, we would know for sure that He was, and is , and will be always by our sides  until He comes to gather us up form across the globe(John 14:18).
To truly walk with God is a serious matter that takes self-discipline, courage, and a willingness to learn and grow as the Holy Spirit guides you through the Holy word. We, who believe and have take up this way, know the difficulty of the journey, but what glory is it to achieve greatness without a struggle? To be given a reward without any effort on your part is no reward. In the sports-world no team wins the championship without fighting for it. So too with all of us who have chosen the way of life, to walk with God. We resist and fight daily against the desire of willful sin. We pick ourselves up when we stumble out of ignorance, knowing that God understands our mortality and is merciful. We believe the word of God and continue on the journey even in the face of rejection, persecution, and covert operations to destroy and eliminate us from achieving the reward of our labors- that is the Kingdom of Heaven. Thus, we courageously obey God and strive to live a holy life before Him until he Returns(1 Cor. 15:57,58).

Rededicate

To the saints,
Rededicate yourself again in your obedience to God with all your strength and mind. Recommit to keeping His holy word- fast truly, pray often, discipline your body and mind. And commit your life to the vision he gave you-walk in your unique calling( Rom. 12:5-8).
 Don't bend His words, nor retreat from your vows -be true to Him and do what you said you would do. Our walk with God and Christ should not be pretend or just a show for others to see( 1 Tim 1:5).
 Strive for the prize of the new birth by his holy word that was made flesh, which talked with us, and instructed us,  and lived with us and died for us, whom God raise up again for us- for God's word can never die and His love for us is everlasting( Jer. 31.3). Let today be the day you turn back to Him with all your soul, so that your true light would shine in this dark world.

To all the Remnant of Israel and the Nations that make up the completed number of God's holy people, may God's face shine on us all.

Healer

You, O God, are my healer
Pain was on every side
in my body, my joints, my bowels,
and in my mind,
anguish and distress had overwhelmed me
My doctors couldn't heal me
the herbs gave no remedy
then I stopped and remembered
You said, " come unto me,
for I am meek and lowly, and learn of me,
and I will give you rest.. Matt. 11:28-29"
So, I prayed and you answered me.

Words for spiritual healing:
Ps. 103:1-5
1 Peter 2:24,25
Heb. 12:12-15
Is. 40:28-31
Luke 5:12-14

On this Journey

On this journey
We have but two choices
before us
On this journey
We enter in our times
to demonstrate the power
on our spiritual DNA
We, the ones who seek
after the source of all wisdom,
all truth, and all power
encapsulated in a boundless
aura of what can only be described as LOVE
On this journey
of endless dawning
and majestic sunsets
We walk on
in the calling
that echo's in our hearts
and in the dusky mist
His voices echo's
"...I am with you always, even unto the end of the world (Matt.28:20)."
We who are of the day and not of the night
have made our choice
On this journey
We have chosen the hope of God and the Faith of Christ,
And the other we have walked past and have not loved this world.

To all the faithful Brothers and Sisters, sincere Teachers and Elders, Mothers and Fathers, to the faithful who hope in the truth- this is dedicated to you.

Small

Despise me not because I am small
 in the little things is often the beginnings of
great things: power and much good( 1 Cor. 1:26,27,28).
The proud and the high and lifted up
shall be brought down to the ground
and the lowly lifted up
"... The first shall be last, and the last shall be first.. Matt. 20:16"

Shalam,
Zarach

In prayer

To live for myself
is nothing
To live for you, O God and the People
is everything...


Shalam,
