"Knowing His Caress"

As all faithful believers, we should be centered on living outwardly our inward faith daily that our visible faith remains inspiration and example for all we encounter. We should maintain a healthy thirst for Elohim (G-d) in that we in living our faith, have a yearning thirst within us, which is only quenched in the continuing desire for our Father and by being in His presence always. We concentrate our efforts to sustain ourselves and the ones we love. We must hold an even stronger, unending desire to be aware of every moment, every blessing, and every action Elohei Avotenu (the G-d of our fathers) brings forth for our betterment and to increase our wisdom through a truer understanding of our Father’s nature and our place in it.

Elohei Chasdi (the G-d of my kindness) is providing precious opportunity for us in each day and in each challenge He meads out and through each triumph in His grace, for He is Elohei Mishpat (the G-d of Justice). Let us reflect on the many times in the midst of trial or of difficulty when in a sudden and most timely moment, Hashem has worked on our favor for a just outcome and relieving a burdensome weight of concern from our shoulders and spirit. And that my most dear fellow believer’s, is “The G-d Hit!” Elohei Ma’uzzi (the G-d of my strength) unexpectedly at the moment of our darkest despair strikes as only He can in an almost subtle way.

Immediately following a G-d Hit is an opportunity for us to recognize our Father’s hand clearing the path of anxiety and borrowed trouble that is ours to own and we absolutely must see His hand at work, for we begin to realize over and over, the G-d Hits operating within our daily lives.

During this epiphany of understanding, we discover the great level of involvement of Hashem in our daily lives, most especially when we are upon the precipice of feeling complete distraught…. a dangerous manner of total despair. We come to an epiphany so pronounced, so amazingly glorious and seemingly miraculous, that we feel driven to shout from the roof tops to let our amazed joy be gloriously announced. At that moment, at that very moment we release the greatest of joys and of gratitude , shouting above all that they may hear the of the presence and of His glory working actively in our daily life that we may know Him and our purpose before Him, the interceptive graces of our most loving Elohei Chasdi (The G-d of my kindness).

“O Zion, that bringest good tidings, get thee up into the mountain; O Jerusalem, that bringest good tidings, lift thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah, Behold your God!” - {Isaiah 40:9} We are called upon by the Holy Spirit to climb to the mountain's zenith, above the vaporous mountains mist of the valley and into the glorious and brilliant sunlight shining upon us upon the paramount to bellow in jubilance our great and worthy praises of our loving Hashem.

In our praise of Elohei Ma’uzzi (the G-d of my strength), our yearning souls thirstily seek to sip and quench ourselves from the challis which is reserved for those awakened to feel the hand of Elohei Mikkarov (the G-d who is near) and to feel His proactive presence within our lives consistently, while among most whose faith is superficial and unfocused, Elohim (G-d) quite often goes without witness or notice. Great in abundance are those lofty dwellers that live to exist in His presence, who forever find their bestowment of His great grace and glories upon them, those who clearly envision the greatness of the truth of His coming Kingdom. There are the sanctified whom are content to labor and exist as the men of the coal mines, who are often deprived of the glory of Elohim’s (G-d’s) sunlight, they ingest the darkened and in doing so taste the thick dust of the earth of their labor, when they might dine upon sustenance of angels.

They are content to wear the miner's jumpsuit and lighted helmet, when they might be garnering the robes of the King's, yet rivers of tears of the sweat of laborious toil mat their faces with the drifting dust of the mine, when they might be blessedly anointed with blessings of celestial muron oil. It is held as certain fact many a believer may pine in a dungeon, comforted in faith when he might stroll the seemingly endless halls of the palace, these modest faithful are by His hand exalted to the positions of the saints. Awaken from your conditioned slumber dearest Believer, release yourself from your dank and dark prisons! Dismiss your lack of desire which stems from feeding upon the disparity of your imprisonment. Clear your head of the slave masters punity and gather your senses in relief of your lethargic and robotic existence…. relieve the coldness of despair; dismiss all influences which interfere in your sincere and pure love of Ben Elohim (The Son of G-d).

Make our Redeemer the source, the center, and the circumference of your soul's full range of delights in His generous mercies and blessings. Come fear Believer, you of unwavering and questioning faith, what falseness feeds your sense of your unworthiness of Elohei Tseva’ot (the G-d of Hosts) when in your righteousness and your devotion brings you entitlement to approach the throne? Confiscate your freedom of Holiness granted you, refuse to remain among within the chains of bondage now that the Holy Spirit grants you great freedom to arise to the full recognition of the chose faithful which is conferred in love upon you. No longer remain accepting and satisfied beneath the boot of man, but rather declare your freedom proffered in grace through Elohei Mishpat (the G-d of Justice) and seek to soar to matters greatly more sublime and heavenly. Rededicate your life as to aspire the greatness and privilege of a most full and nobler life of His design for you!

In the face of my aggressor who would reduce me to a tool of labor, I am raised to great heights of favor and Holiness, receiving untold and immeasurable blessings in the consistency of my dedicated faith; it is in my reverence I discover my predestined freedom, entitlement to the fullness of His grace,
