While preparing the main meal for this week our Avinu/Fathers Ruach HaKodesh/Holy Spirit, prompted this brief posting for today.
We are all living in very uncertain times and unprecedented events are occurring around us all over the world. Many times we do not hear of all the things that are happening to our brothers and sisters and what Father is overseeing behind the scenes.
We often struggle to live as spiritual beings in this physical universe.
We really have a hard time accepting that this scene in front of our eyes is merely a shadow of things
and
the unseen is our true reality.
It is understandable that we find it difficult to ignore that which is reasonable and logical to our minds.
It means that we have to accept as truth that which our physical senses cannot detect …
however, now we are in Messiah we have the ability to see in the spirit that which is unseeable with our natural eyes.
We need to have faith that Adonai can be trusted implicitly even when there is no physical evidence that He is able to do what He says…and especially when the situation appears impossible… this indeed is a Red Sea moment.
Referring once more to the title He gave for this post…
Time To Trust in His Chariots of Fire!
…there is not another place in the Scriptures where this truth is more clearly revealed.
This tiny glimpse into a moment in Elisha’s life reveals an enormous truth. Yes we are too many times just like Elishas servant because we have difficulty seeing that all around us is the invisible army of God.
We must come to an understanding that regardless of what we see with eyes, the reality of our walk with Yeshua/Jesus is summed up in this……
FEAR NOT
for more are they who are with us
that they who are with them….
We are not supposed to run and hide when the enemy comes against us.
For the Lord will raise up a standard against him if we stay in the place of trust and faith.
His word will not return void Will accomplish what he sends it forth to do.
We often focus on the negative spiritual forces around us and forget that there are twice as many positive spiritual forces in the form of angelic hosts!!
The reality is that We are surrounded by an army always prepared to fight in our defense!
The enemy already knows that God’s Warriors are there and that the only thing he can do is try to make us believe otherwise.
We have to resist these lying whispers and the scripture says he will flee from us as we submit ourselves to Him. James 4:7
Avinu/Father in the name of Yeshua/Jesus You are the King and Lord of all Creation, the Leader of the army of heavens hosts; thank you that you have surrounded us and will protect us from all our enemies. Teach us to stand firm without fear and open our eyes as you did with Gehazi so we may see the mountain covered with horses and chariots of fire.
Help us to see your reality with 2020 vision that we may not trust in what we perceive but what is invisible to our eyes. You are our deliverer, redeemer and our faith and trust is in You, we praise and worship you Father in the precious name of Yeshua/Jesus.
Below are links to Psalms to encourage and comfort.
Psalm 30:4-5 KJVS Sing unto the Lord, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. [5] For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
Lets remember to pray and intercede for those in dire circumstances. For example a report a little over 12 hours ago:
There are 200 million in Pakistan without power as Pakistan’s national power grid has failed, leaving almost the entire country in the dark.
“A countrywide blackout has been caused by a sudden plunge in the frequency in the power transmission system,” Pakistani power minister Omar Ayub Khan wrote on Twitter, shortly after the country was plunged into darkness before midnight on Saturday.
This can happen anywhere… at any time…. so
In the event we lose all communications, which would include the internet, remember to stay
in faith
not fear and…

help us to know who our enemies are and to pray for them and to bless them as Yeshu/Jesus Blessed His enemies; pour out Your Holy Spirit/Ruach HaKodesh upon each one of us and keep us in unity, in one accord and in peaceful union through Yeshua/Jesus. Abba/Avin/Father, give us Your courage to stand fast in our faith and the strength to endure what we must for the sake of the Gospel; all for Your Glory and Praise.
Abba/Avinu/Father, we thank You for this Shalom/Peace in Yeshua/Jesus as we study Your Holy Word and rest in the knowledge that You are in control of the universe You created, overseeing every detail.
Thank You for hearing our prayers and for always answering us according to Your Perfect Will; knowing what is best for us. Not our Will but, Your Will be done!
These prayers are lifted to You in the Holy and Mighty Name of Yahusha Ha’Maschiach, Christ Jesus of Nazareth. Amen and Amen.
Avinu, our Heavenly Father is in control! Shalom family and remember you are greatly loved and prayed for daily and His will be done, His Kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven.

It is surely time to trust in His chariots of Fire.
