More precious to YAH than treasures are WE! But ye‌ a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light: Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of YAH: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. ~1 Peter 2:9-10
Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform until the day of Yahushua HaMashiach ~ Philippians 1:6 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls: Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it. ~Matthew 13:44-46

Mat 17:10 And His taught ones asked Him, saying, “Why then do the scribes say that Ěliyah has to come first?” Mat 17:11 And יהושעanswering, said to them, “Ěliyah is indeed coming first, and shall restore all.
INTRODUCTION C
In closing, we will look at a few passages implying “that serpent of old called the Devil and Satan” has deceived the whole world. By the articles end we will clearly see WHY ELIJAH was the prophet chosen to represent the Most High in these last days, of all the biblical prophets we learn about in the Holy Scripture.
יהושע
Mat 24:1 And going out, went away from the Sanctified Place, and His taught ones came near to point out to Him the buildings of the Sanctified Place.
יהושע
Mat 24:2 And said to them, “Do you not see all these? Truly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, at all, which shall not be thrown down.” Mat 24:3 And as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the taught ones came to Him separately, saying, “Say to us, when shall this be, and what is the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?” Mat 24:4 And them, “TAKE YOU ASTRAY.
יהושעanswering, said to HEED THAT NO ONE LEADS
When we consider the questions asked by the disciples, “when shall this be” referring to the destruction of the temple described; “what is the sign of your coming,” inquiring as to when He would take power from the heathen, “and of the end of the age”, a reference to the 7,000 year period mankind has been allotted. The question we must ask is, why He responded in the manner He did; “take heed that no one leads you astray”. Does this teach that deception would be great in the world? Our adversary is responsible for causing, not a portion of the world, but the whole of humanity, to believe something as being true that is not true.
Qul Alahiym – The Voice of POWERS 2015
But let’s continue the line of thought Yahushua was on: Mat 24:5 “For many shall come in My Name, saying, ‘I AM THE MESSIAH,’ and they shall lead many astray…
MIGHTY ONE for indecency, AND DENYING the only Master יהand our Master
יהושעMessiah.
Brother Kepha [Peter] supports this idea
Mat 24:11 “And many FALSE PROPHETS shall rise up and lead many astray… Mat 24:24 “For FALSE MESSIAHS and FALSE PROPHETS shall arise, and they shall show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, IF POSSIBLE, even the chosen ones.
In the next passage Brother Shaul [Paul] builds upon this thought: 2Co 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself IS TRANSFORMED into an ANGEL OF LIGHT. 2Co 11:15 Therefore it is no great thing IF HIS MINISTERS ALSO BE TRANSFORMED as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. What this teaches is that our adversary has the ability to present himself as a messenger of the Most High and that he has ministers who do the same. How does this
reflect on the multitude of religions in the world today? Brother Yahuḏah [Jude] gives us an idea of how this was accomplished: Jud 1:4 For certain men have slipped in, whose judgment was written about long ago, wicked ones PERVERTING

From of old their judgment does not linger, and their destruction does not slumber.

lessons. However, before the creation of humanity, Hĕylĕl and 1/3 of the angelic beings [AKA demons] were cast from the abode of the Most High and now reside in the realm created for humanity, according to the following passages: Rev 12:3 And another sign was seen in the heaven: and see, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns on his heads. Rev 12:4 And his tail draws a third of the stars of the heaven and throws them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, to devour her child as soon as it was born. Eph 2:1 And you were dead in trespasses and sins, Eph 2:2 in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the ruler of the authority of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience, Isa 45:18 For thus said יהוה, Creator of the heavens, He is the Mighty Ones, Former of earth and its Maker, He established it, He did not create it to be empty, HE FORMED IT TO BE INHABITED:
“I am
יהוה, and there is
none else.
After being cast forth from his position in the heavens, the adversary and his minions now abide within the earth’s atmosphere, where they now wield
their influence over humanity by their deceptive ways. How has this impacted humanity? What did the adversary do to sway a world from the knowledge of their Maker? Furthermore, what about the people of the Most High? Those who were called to be His representatives, His ambassadors in the world? Where are they today? Who speaks for the Most High today? Let us begin our quest to understanding WHY ELIJAH will be sent to usher in the coming of Messiah יהושע. In order to understand why the prophet Eliyah is being sent we must take a look at his story, as told in the book of the kings. But first, what about the belief that Yuchanan [John the Baptist] fulfilled the role. Luk 1:13 But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zachar’yah: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisheba shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. Luk 1:14 And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth. Luk 1:15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Master, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb. Luk 1:16 And many of the children of Israel
יהוה
shall he turn to their Mighty One. Luk 1:17 AND HE SHALL GO BEFORE HIM IN THE SPIRIT AND POWER OF ELIYAH, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the
Qul Alahiym – The Voice of POWERS 2015 just; to make ready a people prepared for
יהוה. Based on this passage Yuchanan was indeed given the spirit of Eliyah, so why would there be a need for another to fulfill that position? This is the question many must ask regarding this passage. Furthermore, many people bypass the first clause, “and he shall go before him;” what does that indicate? Let’s compare: Joh 1:19 And this is the record of Yuchanan, when the Yahudiym [Jews] sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou? Joh 1:20 And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Messiah. Joh 1:21 And they asked him, What then? ART THOU ELIYAH? AND HE SAITH, I AM NOT. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No.
Why did Yuchanan respond that he wasn’t Eliyah, if indeed, he was? Compare the following passages: Mat 11:13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until Yuchanan. Mat 11:14 AND IF YE WILL RECEIVE IT, THIS IS ELIYAH, which was for to come. Mat 11:15 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Why say, “if ye will receive it,” instead of stating it definitively? Was there doubt as to the person of Yuchanan?
Or, was Yuchanan a TYPE of Eliyah, serving as forerunner to Messiah? Mat 3:1 In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, Mat 3:2 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Mat 3:3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Yeshayah [Isaiah], saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, PREPARE YE THE WAY OF THE MASTER, MAKE HIS PATHS STRAIGHT.
John the Baptist’s task then, was to fulfill the role of the person sent in advance to announce the coming of another. Consider the following passage: Mat 3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: BUT HE THAT COMETH AFTER ME is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit, and with fire:
Joh 3:23 And Yuchanan also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized. Joh 3:24 For Yuchanan was not yet cast into prison. Joh 3:25 Then there arose a question between some of Yuchanan's disciples and the Yahudim about purifying. Joh 3:26 And they came unto Yuchanan, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, TO WHOM THOU BAREST WITNESS, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.
Qul Alahiym – The Voice of POWERS 2015 Joh 3:27 Yuchanan answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. Joh 3:28 Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I AM NOT THE MESSIAH, BUT THAT I AM SENT BEFORE HIM.
Clearly, John was the forerunner to the first coming of the Messiah; many who deny this fact fail to acknowledge what the Holy Scripture plainly teaches. Additionally, let us now compare our opening passage: Mat 17:11 And
יהושעanswered and
said unto them, ELIYAH TRULY SHALL FIRST COME, AND RESTORE ALL THINGS.
PART ONE Gal 4:22 For it is written, that Abraham had TWO SONS, the one BY A BONDMAID, the other BY A FREEWOMAN. Gal 4:23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise. Gal 4:24 WHICH THINGS ARE AN ALLEGORY… G238 ἀλληγορέω allēgoreo al-lay-gor-eh'-o
One simple question, what did John the Baptist restore? If we recall his ministry, it was, “I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance,” but, according to Messiah, a restoration would also take place by EliYah. Let us now take a look at a prophecy within the pages of Holy Scripture to shed more light on this controversial subject.
From G243 andἀγορέω agoreō (to harangue (compare G58); to allegorize. (The Greek word itself.): be an allegory [the Greek word itself]. Total KJV occurrences: 1
An allegory is a representation of an abstract meaning through concrete formula; i.e. the Most High is using something we can relate to on a human level to reveal His will. Let’s continue this passage: Gal 4:24b …for these are the two covenants; the one from the Mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, WHICH IS HAGAR. Gal 4:25 FOR THIS HAGAR IS MOUNT SINAI IN ARABIA, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
Qul Alahiym – The Voice of POWERS 2015 Gal 4:26 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is THE MOTHER OF US ALL.
turn into fragrance by fire (ESPECIALLY AS AN ACT OF WORSHIP): Total KJV occurrences: 116
“The mother of us all,” is a reference to Sarah; as Paul clearly elucidates, their sons point to the old and new covenants respectively. This passage has been a part of the scriptural record for millennia, but here is a question for you; how many wives did Abraham have? Gen 25:1 Then AGAIN Abraham TOOK A WIFE AND HER NAME WAS KETURAH.
How does Abraham’s third wife factor in? Consider her name’s definition: H6989
טּורה ָ ְק qeṭûrâh ket-oo-raw' Feminine passive participle of H6999; perfumed; Keturah, a wife of Abraham: - Keturah. Total KJV occurrences: 4
H6999
קָ ַָטר qâṭar kaw-tar' A primitive root (rather identical with H7000 through the idea of fumigation in a close place and perhaps thus driving out the occupants); to smoke, that is,
H7000 ָק ַטר qâṭar kaw-tar' A primitive root; to inclose: Total KJV occurrences: 1
Why wasn’t she mentioned when Paul explained the symbolism of Hagar and Sarah? Her name implies turning into a fragrance by fire, as an act of worship; what are we supposed to learn from this? But first, let’s establish the truth of this being the definition implied; compare the following passages incorporating the term found in #6999 in your Strong’s Hebrew Lexicon: Exo 29:13 And thou shalt take all the fat that covereth the inwards, and the caul that is above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, AND BURN THEM upon the altar.
Exo 29:18 AND THOU SHALT BURN the whole ram upon the altar: it is a burnt
יהוה
offering unto : IT IS A SWEET SAVOUR, an offering made by fire unto
יהוה.
Qul Alahiym – The Voice of POWERS 2015
Exo 29:25 And thou shalt receive them of their hands, AND BURN THEM upon the altar for a burnt offering, FOR A SWEET SAVOUR before
יהוה: it is an offering
made by fire unto
יהוה.
In each instance the offering is burnt and the smoke of the offering ascends to the Most High. This is the context of Qeturah’s name; what it means. This is very important when we discuss why Elijah is the prophet to be used in the latter days. Speaking of which, what did John the Baptist do indicating a restoration of worship? During this section of our study we will look at the three wives of Abraham as the development of one assembly in three stages, viz. Israel, referencing them by 1st, 2nd and 3rd stage. Abraham, whose name means ‘father of a multitude’ signifies our Heavenly Father; each woman, (women often symbolizing an assembly prophetically), representing a stage in the development of His people. The first stage being Hagar, whose name means ‘flight,’ according to Brown, Driver & Briggs Hebrew lexicon, but when we look at the word in as it appears Hebrew we learn that it can also have the meaning of ‘the stranger,’ #1481. The second stage is
Sarah, whose name means ‘princess’ and the third stage is Keturah, which means ‘perfumed’, in the context explained earlier. That being said, does this teach that the third stage of Israel’s development will be highlighted by worship; a worship that is to be accepted by the Most High? First, let’s finish Paul’s allegory to see where he takes us next:
Gal 4:27 For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath an husband. Gal 4:28 NOW WE, brethren, AS ISAAC WAS, ARE THE CHILDREN OF PROMISE. Gal 4:29 But as then he that was born AFTER THE FLESH persecuted him that was born AFTER THE SPIRIT, even so it is now. Gal 4:30 Nevertheless what saith the scripture? CAST OUT THE BONDWOMAN AND HER SON: for the son of the bondwoman SHALL NOT be heir with the son of the freewoman. Gal 4:31 So then, brethren, WE ARE NOT CHILDREN OF THE BONDWOMAN, BUT OF THE FREE.
In Paul’s allegory the sons, along with Hagar and Sarah, are used to symbolize how Israel was in bondage before Messiah; and how now, through Messiah, they would be made free. But what about the sons of Abraham’s third wife, do they teach us anything? Putting this information together for the purpose of our study the symbolism of the wives and the sons’ changes
Qul Alahiym – The Voice of POWERS 2015
from representing the covenants to the stages of Israel’s development, as mentioned previously. When we consider Hagar’s name, which translates as ‘flight’ that bore Iyshma’Al [Ishmael], whose name means ‘heard of Mighty One,’ how does this signify Israel’s development? Gen 16:11 And the angel of
יהוהsaid unto
her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; BECAUSE
יהוה
HATH
HEARD
be the figure head of Israel’s first stage of development, corresponding with Hagar and Ishmael. What do we learn from Sarah, which means ‘princess’ and Isaac, which means ‘laughter’? Luk 1:44 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, THE BABE LEAPED IN MY WOMB FOR JOY.
Luk 2:10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I BRING YOU GOOD TIDINGS OF GREAT JOY, which shall be to all people.
THY
AFFLICTION.
Exo 3:7 And
יהוהsaid, I have surely seen
of my people which are in Egypt, AND HAVE HEARD THEIR CRY by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows; THE AFFLICTION
First, it signifies Israel being heard by the Most High; remember, Israel wasn’t a nation until they went down into Mitzraiym [Egypt]. At this time Israel could also be viewed as a stranger to the Most High. Let’s continue: Exo 12:51 And it came to pass the selfsame day, THAT יהוהDID BRING THE SONS OF ISRAEL OUT OF THE LAND OF EGYPT BY THEIR ARMIES.
This passage points to Israel’s taking flight from Egypt by the hand of Moses, who will
Laughter signifies joy, which, in addition to being a fruit of the spirit, Gal. 5:22, it was also associated with the coming of messiah, as indicated by the above verses.
יהושע
Mat 22:1 And answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, Mat 22:2 The kingdom of heaven is LIKE UNTO A CERTAIN KING, WHICH MADE A MARRIAGE FOR HIS SON,
Israel’s status of princess derives from being married to the son of a king; Yahushua will be the figure head of Israel’s second stage of development. Next we have Qeturah, who bore six sons to Abraham, but why six? Gen 25:1 Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah.
Qul Alahiym – The Voice of POWERS 2015 Gen 25:2 And she bare him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
What do we learn from the meanings of their names? Zimran is derived from ‘zamar,’ which means ‘to play an instrument or sing with musical accompaniment,’ #2167 in the Strong’s. The name Yoqshan derives from #3369 which means ‘to snare animals, esp. birds.’ Medan and Midiyan both come from #4090 which means ‘contention;’ Iysh’baq comes from #7662 implying ‘not bothering or disturbing something,’ and Shuach means ‘to be bowed down or humble’ from #7743. Consider the message within the names of Qeturah’s sons; A musician will entrap birds contending one who contends not disturbing those bowed down. Does this indicate that this stage of development will have something to do with worship? Will the worship be a sweet smelling savor, Qeturah, to the Most High? But what does this have to do with Elijah coming on the scene, you may ask?
יהושע
Mat 17:1 And after six days taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, Mat 17:2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
Mat 17:3 And, behold, there appeared unto them MOSES and ELIJAH talking with him. Mat 17:4 Then answered Peter, and said unto

Mar 9:2 And after six days יהושעtaketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them. Mar 9:3 And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them. Mar 9:4 And there appeared unto them ELIJAH with MOSES: and they were

Mar 9:6 FOR HE WIST NOT WHAT TO SAY; for they were sore afraid. Luk 9:28 And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray. Luk 9:29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering. Luk 9:30 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were MOSES and ELIJAH: Luk 9:31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem. Luk 9:32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when
Qul Alahiym – The Voice of POWERS 2015 they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him. Luk 9:33 And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto

we are awaiting the manifestation of the third stage, which is Elijah’s. Consider this excerpt from the story of Elijah as told in 1 Kings: 1Ki 18:30 And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. AND HE REPAIRED THE ALTAR OF
After reading these three accounts of the transfiguration of Yahushua, what comes to mind? Of all the prophets that could have appeared with Messiah during this event, why were Moses and Elijah chosen? Does this mean anything? Why would Kepha [Peter] suggest the making of “three tabernacles?” Was it merely because “he knew not what to say,” or, “not knowing what he said?” Or does it have a deeper meaning? The fact that these questions are being presented infer that Peter’s remarks do in fact have significance to our study, otherwise, why would the Most High have them recorded thrice? This is the more important question. Although Peter may not have known why he said those things, the Most High surely did! The three tabernacles mentioned, just so happen to coincide with the three stages of Israel’s development, synonymous with the three wives of Abraham currently under discussion. As mentioned Moses points to the first stage, Yahushua the second stage, and

A new day, new battles…. Actually, one battle that assumes different forms: I Want vs. I Should. The day’s first battlefield is your bed, and the first shot is fired when the alarm clock rings. I Want reaches out to hit the snooze button; I Should is ready to jump out of bed and take on another day. That’s why the first instruction in the Code of Jewish Law is: “Be strong as a lion when you wake up in the morning to serve your Creator.” Because if you win this battle, the rest are lamb chops.
The Most High - Abba YAH chose to return your soul to your body and grant you once again the gift of life Here’s some fodder for your cannon in those early morning forays: Think how, every night, your soul ascends to heaven to recharge. This morning, Abba YAH chose to return your soul to your body and grant you once again the gift of life—a sure sign that there’s a little dark corner left in this world for you to come and illuminate. YAH trusts that you are up to the task.
Modeh anee lefanecha melech chai vekayam, she-he-chezarta bee nishmatee b’chemla, raba emunatecha. I offer thanks to You, living and eternal King, for You have mercifully restored my soul within me; Your faithfulness is great. These are the first words we utter every morning—while still lying in bed. Our first conscious moments are spent thanking YAH for the gift of life. It doesn’t matter what we did yesterday or last night; nothing can taint those first innocent words that sit at our primal consciousness. Still having a problem dragging yourself out of bed? Use your imagination. Picture yourself lying there while a king or head of state stands above you, waiting for you to get your act together to execute some critical mission. Well, it isn’t a king or president. It is the one who creates kings, presidents, and the entire world at every moment—and you too. Again. Today.

2. Dieting isn't the answer. What would benefit him was to change the way he thought about his body and food. (Romans 12:2). Food is fuel for our bodies. The choices we make should be based on how it can benefit us, not on how it tastes.
3. Any drastic measures taken to lose weight
with a patient of mine recently. He was a 56 year old man that was admitted to the hospital with severe shortness of breath after walking up to his 6th floor apartment with groceries. He rested for a few minutes but was unable to recover so he called EMS. By the time I saw him he was back to his usual state of health. He was a very pleasant man, easy to talk with and had a kind smile. When I asked him what medical problems he had he mentioned high blood pressure. He was very proud of the fact that he had stopped smoking cold turkey several months ago and joked that now that he's stopped smoking he'll have a heart attack, which was why he called 911. We spoke about his needing to lose weight and he agreed. In fact, he had just bought a fancy blender and his shopping bags were filled with fresh fruits and vegetables. His plan was to go on a soup and liquid diet with hopes of losing weight. I actually spent as much time teaching him about a healthy way to lose weight as I did about his acute medical problem. He was about to embark on a diet that so many of us have tried in the past. Something drastic, well intended but doomed for failure. This is what I shared with him...
1.
The first thing I told him was that I try to maintain a healthful lifestyle because I believe that my body is the dwelling place of The Most High. (1 Corinthians 3:16-17)
will fail 100% of the time because it is not sustainable. (I told my patient unless he was planning on losing all his teeth, a soup/liquid diet wasn't gonna fly ) You can't live on a liquid diet forever. Living without eating any particular food group can't last forever. Exercising 2 hours every day is not something that can last forever. Weight will drop, but since the way it was lost is not sustainable it's only a matter of time until it comes back.
4. I encouraged him to educate himself. (Mishle/Proverbs 4:5-Get wisdom...) To learn about nutrition, how to read labels and make smart choices.
5. Avoid processed foods which is usually loaded with added salt, sugar, and unpronounceable ingredients. Buying fresh organic fruits, vegetable and meats when possible. Preparing your meals and snacks at home is a huge game changer. You control the ingredients, the portion size, and it's economical.
6. Increase physical activity. You don't need an expensive gym membership, just some comfortable sneakers. Walking is the simplest and easiest exercise that almost any one of us can do. I told him to start with just walking around the block and steadily increase the distance. Certainly if you have a gym membership you should put it to use. Maybe typical exercises don't interest you. You can try kickboxing, martial arts, swimming, squash etc. I pray this article edifies all those reading it.
Faith is our backbone.
The Strength of our faith determines how we stand. Are we strong? Are we weak? Do we have scoliosis of the Spirit?...You know, the curving away from the straight up TRUTH of the matter? Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised; And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. ~Hebrews 10:23-25
Faith is like a fire that melts your feet onto the path that YAH has given. Truth is the thing that brought you to that same path.

At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 4 The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’7 “Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8 The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’9 “‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’10 “But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.11 “Later the others also came. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they said, ‘open the door for us!’12 “But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I don’t know you.’13 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour. ~Matthew 25:1-13

Rejoice always; pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks; for this is YAH's will for you in Mashiach YAHUSHUA ~1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Master's people. ~ Ephesians 6:18
And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; ~ Luke 18:1
Worry NOT!!!! Let the Messiah Yahushua calm the storms in your life. Turn to the Set-Apart Spirit of YAH when you feel worried and He will take care of you. Turn your worries into the most heart-felt prayers ever. Unrestrained.
Reference: Matthew 8:23-27 And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him. And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep. And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, save us: we perish. And he said unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. But the men marveled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!

2. Gather objection about why they are objecting
What are we dealing with? Understand the nature of man - Jn.3:19 - men love darkness - Rom. 1:28 - reprobate mind - 2 Thess. 2:10 - no love of truth - Jn 8:47 - not of Yah - Prov. 14:12 - Jn. 12:40 - blinded and hardened hearts - Rom. 11:8 - spirit of slumber
> "What do you mean?" vs. "Why?" --> Reinforcing all the reasons for the objection > Body language
3. "Seek to understand" --> Rephrase what they said => shows that you care
4. Address the objection once you understand the objection
***DON'T GET SIDETRACKED*** Don't lose control / get angry / defensive
How do we overcome objections to the gospel? Two ways: A. Pre-emptive - anticipation and responding B. Dealing with objections as they arise
1. Don't be quick to speak --> Let them see that you take their objection serious. **Use active listening methods** What they are telling you will help you sell to them.
5. Check their understanding of what you said
6. Close the "sale" So???.....- How did you do? and How could you improve?

Qul Alahiym – The Voice of POWERS 2015
Which crime is worse, financial exploitation or verbal abuse? "Money can be reimbursed," "but the hurt from words is irreparable; money is a person's property, but words hurt the person himself."
A more subtle example: Wayne walks into a store with great customer service and juices the salesperson for all the information he needs while trying all the samples. Then, once he's determined the best deal, he buys it at half-price online.
Whether it's due to circumstance or nature, some people are more emotionally vulnerable than others. The Torah repeatedly tells us to watch our words with the widow, the orphan and the immigrant. Men are enjoined to speak sensitively to their wives. "The gates of prayer are sometimes closed," we are warned, "but never the gates of tears."
Public Embarrassment: "It's your fault, Johnny, if you didn't prepare. You're going to stand up there and make the presentation anyways."
Whether due to circumstance or nature, some people are more emotionally vulnerable than others Here are a few prototypes of verbal exploitation:
Name Calling: "Hey Traintracks! Can you pick up Radio China with that mouth gear?" Chiding: "Cheer up, buddy! It's all for the good. Must be that you did some sins that this suffering is now expunging!" Past Digging: "Look, Mary, a picture of you before the acne treatment!" Wasting My Time: Joe asks Bill for help in his business, and Bill sends him on a wild goose chase, purposely providing useless internet links, defunct phone numbers and connections that won't get him anywhere. Bill says he meant well, but he knows the truth.
"Better for a man to cast himself into a fiery furnace," as the saying goes, "than to shame his fellow in public." Publicly embarrassing someone, we are told, is not just breaking his bones–it's cold-blooded murder. If you have an issue with someone, deal with it privately. Be open and try to work out a resolution. Whenever possible, just forgive and forget and get on with life.

For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of YAH, and you have come to need milk and not solid food. For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an infant. But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil. ~ Hebrews 5:12-14 Yahueh of armies will prepare a lavish banquet for all peoples on this mountain; A banquet of aged wine, choice pieces with marrow, and refined, aged wine. ~ Isaiah 25:6 "Then I will give you shepherds after My own heart, who will feed you on knowledge and understanding. ~ Jeremiah 3:15 "I am the living bread that came down out of heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread also which I will give for the life of the world is My flesh." ~ John 6:51 'He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches to him who overcomes, I will grant to eat of the tree of life which is in the Paradise of YAH.' ~ Revelation 2:7
Gratefulness :
But thanks be to YAH, who always leads us in triumph in Messiah, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Him in every place. For we are a fragrance of Messiah to YAH among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing; to the one an aroma from death to death, to the other an aroma from life to life. And who is adequate for such a task as this? ~ 2 Corinthians 2:14-16

It's me again... I hope you're having a great day. I needed to speak with you because my heart is heavy. I look around and it looks like the enemy is winning. It only appears that way because the people of the Covenant aren't as busy as he is. They are so easily distracted... So quick to sit down and rest, really before even bursting a sweat. I think they've forgotten this work will cost them everything, but they actually want to keep everything; their lives, cars, homes, and family. I have to remember that they are but dust. I pray that they remember that I gave my life for them so that they would continue our mission. They talk a good game, but this isn't time for games! The enemy is getting more brazen, more ruthless, moving with more boldness. My people- they commentate. They like deep conversation and analytical summations. That's only because they don't understand that faith without work is dead. They don't see that they live as if they're cursed. They don't see that they live as if they don't really believe in You, Me, or themselves. They've forgotten that the enemy is terrified of them. They've forgotten who they were created to look like. They've forgotten who they were created to rule with. They've forgotten their Power. They've forgotten their calling. Oh, why don't the things that break Our heart; break theirs? Where is their sighing and crying over what they see? Why aren't
they flooding our gates with fasting and praying? Where is their compassion and empathy? I know where; buried so deep inside- pushed so far back, that they don't realize that they don't care anymore....Oh, Abba.... The time is near to send in My brother, AliYahu. He bring turn their hearts back to you by Your spirit. He will make the crooked ways straight; he will move in our Power. He will bring hope to them...they need it. Many of them are so afraid; trusting in themselves but not Us. Makes me wonder; do they really know us? Do they really know Our Power?
My heart is heavy Abba, but I know Your will, will be done.

this good, Also be nutritious?" "Why don't we get some goodies? Let's have some nosh instead!"
David was soooo tired, He couldn’t lift his sleepy head, But he had to go to school, So he crawled out of bed. What did David have for breakfast? Super Sugar Cereal! That was his very favorite. He gulped down three bowls full! For lunch he ate ten fireballs, But that was all he had. After he got finished, Everything else tasted bad! At dinner, he was grouchy. After soda, he’d had enough. But that was just because He had filled up on junky stuff! Oh my! Our David! He ate like that each day, But, thank YAH, he had a friend, With whom he liked to play. Once Raphael came to visit. The hours quickly passed. They played games all afternoon. They really had a blast! Next to them sat healthy treats, And you know what David said,
Then Raphael started laughing. He said, "What do you mean?" Did you know that YAH makes The best food you've ever seen!" "What do you mean?" asked David. He looked puzzled now. Raphael pointed to a bowl of fruit, And then he said, "Look how!" "Let's take this banana here. It's so much fun to eat. Peel off its yellow wrapper And you've got the greatest treat!" "Well, guess Who wrapped it up for us! And Who made each fruit small? A fruit comes in just the right size, For you to eat it all!" "And what is brighter and sweeter Than this watermelon's red? Why would you want to choose a plain brown candy bar instead?" "Round, red cherries and blueberries- They're bitesize candy, ready to eat! So are purple grapes and green ones – Try one super duper treat!" "YUM!" squealed David loudly, "This is really delicious! But can something that tastes
"Sure, David, see this carrot slice? Ready for a big surprise? YAH put a hint inside each one! It looks like and helps your eyes!"
"This walnut looks like a little brain! With lots and lots of folds! And you would never guess how much Brain-helping stuff it holds!" "This long celery stick – don't tell me!" Called David on his own, "This must help – just like white milk – To give us strong bones!" David started liking healthy treats, Now that he was aware, That every single one of them, God made with SO much care! Now David jumps out of bed! Super Sugar gets passed by. David loves YAH's candy! Which one would you like to try?

An actual vine of grapes found in Israel. (Sited on Facebook 2015)
And Moshe sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said unto them, Get you up this way southward, and go up into the mountain: And see the land, what it is; and the people that dwells there, whether they be strong or weak, few or many; And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds; And what the land is, whether it be fat or lean, whether there be wood therein, or not. And be ye of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the firstripe grapes. And they came unto the brook of Eshcol, and cut down from thence a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bare it between two upon a staff; and they brought of the pomegranates, and of the figs. The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from thence.
~Numbers 13:17-20; 23-24
