Seeds of the Kingdom of G-d

The Kingdom of G-d is like a mustard seed ...

A tiny seed, not very visible, put into the soil, where it grows and grows.

Abba, let me sow those seeds everywhere, all the time!

knowing Him and being known by Him

Maybe it is less important for me to try to know Him and figure Him out, but to walk before Him and make sure that He knows me?

False Gospel and false prophecies

harvest time to separate the wheat from the tares and for the latter to be burned.

"Prince of Egypt" & healing through judgement

important lessons for the Kingdom of G-d and the understanding of His heart and actions.

the prophets job

"Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I command thee: be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound thee before them.
For, behold, I have made thee this day a defenced city, and an iron pillar, and brasen walls against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against the princes thereof, against the priests thereof, and against the people of the land.
And they shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee; for I [am] with thee, saith the LORD, to deliver thee. " (Jeremia 1: 17-19)

LORD, may you give me Your Word to speak and the courage to stand, not to be dismayed and to speak. May you give me Your strength, and joy, trust and faith. May you make my mind and body work and my senses respond when it is needed.

connection between heart, theology and truth

In order to follow the Truth, heart and mind need to submit and be ready to be changed and formed by the truth. Heart and mind are not the "Head", but only important parts of the body. Yeshua, the Truth in person, is the Head. Trust and surrender, without rebellion, to be truely teachable by Him.

new exercise

walking with the cross towards the cruxifiction hill, in full faith and trust and anticipation of life.

Not overcome by grief, not giving up on the way, not complaining nor bitter, not depressed and dismayed, but in the full knowledge of the reason of hope.

The Father's love resurrected Yeshua. Yeshua knew the Father's heart.

Focus on the Kingdom of G-d

The main message Yeshua preached wasn't salvation, but the Kingdom of G-d.

That is also what He sent the disciples to announce wherever they went, and He gave them authority to heal the sick, drive out the demons, raise the dead, etc., because that is what happens when the Kingdom of G-d arrives. The healings are evidence of the new Kingdom reality.

And we are called to enter it!

I need this reminder from time to time...

Father - Son - Spirit

An ancient way of describing the relation:

"A cup of milk was offered to me, and I drank it in the sweetness of the Lord's kindness."

"The Son is the cup, and the Father is He who was milked; and the Holy Spirit is She who milked Him."

(Odes of Salomon 19.1-2)
