Praying according His will.
At times, I’ve noticed some of us pray against the Prophecies of God. If I’m not wrong, we want God’s prophecies to be fulfilled and not to be hindered by the children of God. So, learn to pray according to God’s Will. In this blog I will mention some spiritual exercises that have helped me…
Have I borne them?!
So *Mosheh said to YHWH, “Why have you done evil to Your Servant? And why have I not found favour in Your sight, to put the burden of all these people on me? Was it I who conceived all these people? Was it I who brought them forth, that You should say to me,’ carry…
Take Up Your Cross
He who does not take up his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. Matthew 10:38 We will divide the above verse into two parts. Part a) he who does not take up his cross.. part b) and follow after me is not worthy of me. Let’s first see part a) What…
Value of Knowledge
My people have perished for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I reject you from being Kohen for ME. Since you have forgotten the Torah of your Elohim, I also forget your children. (Hoshea 4:6) Knowledge and understanding are very precious in the eyes of the LORD. HE honors our requests for more…
Voice of the Cross – Part 7
“Father, into Thy hands I commend My spirit.” — Luke 23:46 It was the last sentence on the cross and after saying this, He breathed His last. Jesus himself has put His Spirit in the hands of the Father. In John 10:7-18, we read that Jesus is teaching his disciple using the Good Shepherd paradigm.…
Voice of the Cross – Part 6
“It is finished.” — John 19:30 When did it begin? What began? This question is bound to come to anyone who is pondering on this sentence. Chapter one of the Gospel according to John gives us the entire plan. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was…
Voice of the Cross – Part 5
“I thirst.” — John 19:28 As I was meditating on this verse, I went through mixed feelings. As a first reaction I went on the obvious and peripheral interpretation. This was a very natural, obvious condition of someone who has gone through so much of physical stress. Being thirsty must have been a sign of…
Voice of the Cross- Part 4
My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? Why are You so far from my deliverance, and from my words of groaning? Psalm 22:1 “My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?” Mark 15:34 Psalm 22 is such a parallel to the day of Jesus’ Crucifixion to the extent that, in my view,…
Voice of the Cross – Part 3
“Woman, behold thy Son.” — John 19:26 The first and most obvious interpretation of this verse is that Jesus was a responsible son and took care of His mother on earth. This is true, but I have a little different view. I feel that the voice of the cross was meant for a much larger…
Voice of the Cross – Part 2
“Today shalt thou be with Me in paradise.” — Luke 23:43 It is the most definitive and personal approval to enter into eternal life, given to someone who was waiting for something else. He was hanging on the cross, about to die, must have been regretting all the wrongdoings of the past, and this point…
Voice of the Cross – Part 1
“Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” Luke 23:34 I have heard many sermons on this verse and the common theme of the message was to forgive others like Jesus forgave us. I think there’s a lot more to that and as I was reflecting on the verse, I saw a different…
Neither Jew Nor Gentile…
I’m writing this piece with a heavy heart and reason being the prejudices created by the church leaders (some Pastors and preachers) based on status, ethnicity and social background. I have seen some creating divisions among the sheep in the name of the Lord for their own good. They will…
Our Father in Heaven… Part 7
For thine is the Kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Matthew 6:14 Forever and ever is what eternity is about. Have you ever thought what eternity would mean and be like? We are so tuned to the fourth dimension of time on earth that it is…
Our Father in Heaven… Part 6
And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. Matthew 6:13 James 1:13 says, “Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempts He any man.” Then what does this prayer really mean? We will…
Our Father In Heaven… Part 5
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. Matthew 6:12 This was the whole purpose of Jesus’ coming on the earth, going through all the pain till the cross, bearing our sins, conquering death as the first fruit, and now sitting at the right-hand side…
