Why are you standing, staring into space? This Yeshua, who has been taken away from you into heaven, will come back to you in just the same way as you saw him go into heaven.” * Hebrews 1:1 In days gone by, G-d spoke in many and var

Matthew 28 After Shabbat, as the next day was dawning, Miryam of Magdala and the other Miryam went to see the grave. 2 Suddenly there was a violent earthquake, for an angel of Adonai came down from heaven, rolled away the stone and sat on it. 3 His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were as white as snow. 4 The guards were so terrified at him that they trembled and became like dead men. 5 But the angel said to the women, “Don’t be afraid.

Hebrews 10:32 But remember the earlier days, when, after you had received the light, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings. 33 Sometimes you were publicly disgraced and persecuted, while at other times you stood loyally by those who were treated this way. 34 For you shared the sufferings of those who had been put in prison. Also when your possessions were seized, you accepted it gladly; since you knew that what you possessed was better and would last forever. 35 So don’

Habakkuk 2:1 I will stand at my watchpost; I will station myself on the rampart. I will look to see what [God] will say through me and what I will answer when I am reproved. 2 Then Adonai answered me; he said, “Write down the vision clearly on tablets, so that even a runner can read it. 3 For the vision is meant for its appointed time; it speaks of the end, and it does not lie.

Isaiah 55:1“All you who are thirsty, come to the water! You without money, come, buy, and eat! Yes, come!

Psalm 27: (0) By David (1) Adonai is my light and salvation; whom do I need to fear?

Psalm 31:20(19) But oh, how great is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you, which you do for those who take refuge in you, before people’s very eyes! 21 (20) In the shelter of your presence you hide them from human plots, you conceal them in your shelter, safe from contentious tongues. 22 (21) Blessed be Adonai!

Psalm 131 (0) A song of ascents. By David: (1) Adonai, my heart isn’t proud; I don’t set my sight too high, I don’t take part in great affairs or in wonders far beyond me. 2 No, I keep myself calm and quiet, like a little child on its mother’s lap — I keep myself like a little child. 3 Isra’el, put your hope in Adonai from now on and forever! ****** This Psalm is three verses, yet full of powerful instruction for us, the remnant, today.

Read 1 Kings 18-19 and 2 Kings 2 Over the past few months, I have heard the same words: "I can hear so clearly for others, but I am struggling to hear for myself." These words were spoken by "seasoned saints" and "true prophets" (see Deuteronomy 18), so it really bothered me.
