He is Close to Those Who

The Lord is good, a strong refuge when trouble comes. He is close to those who trust in him. Nahum 1:7 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation

When tornadoes hit the best place to be is in the basement. Even though the winds may pick up the house, fling it around and totally destroy it, you are safe in the basement.

So too it is with Jehovah. When financial, physical or mental troubles come, always run into His strong yet gentle arms for protection.

One time I felt the Lord instructing me to take a different route to go to the school I was teaching at. I argued that it was longer but He was insistent. I obeyed and was glad for it. There was a terrible car accident and I would have had to take an even longer route around the disaster.

Even though a lot of times it does not make sense, obey Jehovahs instructions for you. It will prevent a lot of hardship and sorrow later. Joseph a son of Jehovah

But, there is no sense in calling out for help if you do not trust Him.

So if you call out to the Lord for protection and refuse to listen then why blame Him when things go south.

So, if someone is abusing you and He instructs you to get away from them and you refuse to leave, why blame Him for not rescuing you from an abusive relationship?

I know some one who is a live in care giver for a abusive mother. Finally the Lord gave them instructions on how to be loving but firm with their charge. As well, they are to keep their interaction with them to a limited amount. Since obeying Him, there is a lot less stress in my their.

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Elohe Yeshuathi (Psalms 88:1 LORD GOD of My Salvation ) for blessing me with salvation from an abusive relationship. Thank you for teaching me how to behave in a loving but firm manner so that I can shine Your love while refusing to be abused. I greatly appreciate You in the name of He who stood up to bullies, Jesus Christ. Amen

May you be greatly blessed with the knowledge of the proper manner to respond to a bully to shine Jesus’ love while protecting yourself from abuse. Joseph a son of Jehovah

Then You Will Learn to Know

Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:2 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation

We all inherit bad dispositions from our ancestors. Some are good. Some are bad.

We know we should not do the bad things but no matter how hard we try to stop doing them, we fail every time. The only way to cleanse ourselves of these destructive forces with in us is to totally surrender them unto Jehovah.

There are three ways this is accomplished. One, He blesses us with the strength to conquer them ourselves.

Two we work in conjunction with The Holy Spirit to destroy them. To do these first two means we must surrender our will to The Holy Spirits will.

Not my will, but Thy will be done is the only way for true success. Joseph a son of Jehovah

The third way is when the sin is too powerful with in us. It can only be eradicated through the power of The Holy Spirit who is sent by Jehovah.

When this has happened with me there was nothing dramatic about it. One day I woke up and the Lord softy whispered in my ear : “ It is finished.” and I never partook of that destructive habit again.

It is important for everyone to research their ancestry to understand why they are the way they are. It is more important to surrender our will to allow the Holy Spirit to mold us into the beautiful children Jehovah desires us to be. Joseph a son of Jehovah

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Elohim Ozer Li (Psalms 54:4 GOD My Helper ) for blessing me with the best helper of all to assist me in becoming what I know You desire for me to be, The Holy Spirit. I praise You in the name of He with whom I deeply desire to emulate, Jesus Christ. Amen.

May you be blessed with the washing away of the filth of destructive habits to be replaced with the Holy ones Jehovah knows we are

The Entire Family is Affected.

I lay the sins of the parents upon their children; the entire family is affected. Exodus 20:5 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation

Yes, your sins affect those around you. That is especially true for children. It does not matter if they are your children, nephews nieces, cousins or the children in your neighborhood. When you participate in destructive behavior like excessive drinking or drugs or any other manner of selfishness little eyes are watching you. Your behavior whether good or bad influences the next generation. You will be held accountable in Jesus Christs high court.

Now some destructive habits are too strong for you to control. They are passed down from generation to generation in your family.

So, do the only logical thing available for you. Take it all to Jesus. Lay it at the supreme healers feet. He will heal you.

Now it may happen immediately like my addiction to alcohol. Or, it may take years, like my addiction to nicotine. But, it will happen. Sometimes Christ will guide to to resources and men and or women that will help you. Sometimes, like with me, it is accomplished only by His Power . But, be assured, when you ask in faith, He will set you free.

Always go to the best Doctor for the worst illness, destructive habits. He has 100 % success rate. Joseph a son of Jehovah

For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. 1 Peter 1:18-19 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation

What a wonderful example that is to those around you.

Do not hide your sins and Jehovahs rescue and forgiveness of them. You will be a great encouragement to others. Joseph a son of Jehovah

Prayer: Please Jehovah Mephalti (Psalms 18:2 The LORD My Deliverer ) bless me with plenty of opportunities to share with others, the incredible experiences of the countless times You have delivered me. May these shared encounters lead those enduring difficult times to be encouraged to come unto You. I humbly request this in the name of He who delivered us from Hell on the cross, Jesus Christ. Amen

May you always be encouraged to go to the best rescuer of all in times of trouble, Jesus Christ. Amen Joseph a son of Jehovah

Be Committed Unto Him

The eyes of the Lord search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. 2 Chronicles 16:9 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation

Do not ever think that Jehovah is sleeping or does not care about the trials and tribulations or your sorrows.

However, there is an important prerequisite to receiving His help.

You must first be committed to Him.

So if you behave like a spoiled brat and only go to Him when you want something from Him, why should you expect anything from Him?

He desires a loving relationship with you.

If you do not love Him, why should He love you?

If you do not love Jehovah, Jesus or The Holy Spirit, why should you expect them to love you? Joseph a son of Jehovah

The second part is that you must be obedient unto Him.

Because He is all wise He knows what is best for you.

Because He loves you , He only wants what is best for you.

But, He cannot do anything if you refuse to listen to and obey Him.

So if you want to save money for a down payment for a house or to go to school and He instructs you to stop foolishly wasting your money in coffee shops and you refuse to listen, why cry baby because you have no money for a house or school?

As well, as Jesus Christ is our King that makes us His free willed servants.

The servant does not tell the King what to do but rather is obedient unto the King. Joseph a son of Jehovah

So, if Jesus is telling you to forgive someone and you refuse, then why expect His help?

It is a fact that anger and bitterness causes many illnesses in both the body and the mind.

Therefore, if you need the Lords strength, be committed unto Him and will become immeasurably more committed unto you.

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah El Emunah (Deuteronomy 7:9 The Faithful GOD ) for blessing me with always being faithful in Your love towards me. Please bless me with the same dedication unto You because I love You so dearly. I humbly thank You and request this in the name of He who is faithful in His love for me all the way to the cross, Jesus Christ. Amen

May you be blessed with an eternal affair with the most faithful lover Jesus Christ. Joseph a son of Jehovah

Is My Shield

I Come to You For

The Holy Spirit Jehovah GELAH RAZ

Asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God. Ephesians 1:17 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah for blessing me with The Holy Spirit Jehovah GELAH RAZ ( the God of the Revealer of Mysteries Colossians 1:26 ) to be my personal mentor. He knows how to teach me to understand Your spiritual wisdom, which is superior to mans faulty knowledge. Under His tutelage He reveals things that are mysteries to the world but are simple to understand by those who seeks to know You, Jesus and Himself on a personal relationship instead of a formal one. This is one of the greatest blessings because it brings us ever closer together.

Oh thank you ever so much my Beloved, wise Mentor.

I exalt You in the name of the greatest teacher, Jesus Christ. Amen

You can learn more sitting at the feet of the Holy Spirit about Jehovah, Jesus and The Holy Spirit in an hour than you can from man in a lifetime.

May you be blessed with wonderful wisdom of our Heavenly trio every day. Joseph a son of Jehovah

The Holy Spirit Elohim Ozer Li

If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking. James 1:5 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation

There has been oh so many times I have tried to figure things out for myself. I mistakenly believed that was part of being a mature man. I thought I was weak if I asked for help.

Boy, was I wrong.

The Holy Spirit patiently waited for me to exhaust myself and in complete surrender call out to Jehovah to send Him to me to straighten out the mess. It was amazing the simple yet effective suggestions He blessed me with that brought about a successful resolution to the matter.

The Holy Spirit is the best Guidance Councilor there ever was, is or can be. Joseph a son of Jehovah

Prayer: Thank you my Beloved Poppa for sending the best Mentor, The Holy Spirit Elohim Ozer Li (Psalms 54:4 GOD My Helper ) for helping me solve difficult situations in my life. I love the simple, yet effective manner in which He leads me to victory over the challenging situation. I praise You both in the name of He who always blesses with the best advice, Jesus Christ. Amen

May you be blessed with walking through all of life’s trying times with the best Mentor there is, The Holy Spirit.

Slammed Down Your Divine

But Moses told the people, “Do not be afraid. Just stand still and watch the Lord rescue you today. The Egyptians you see today will never be seen again. The Lord himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.” Exodus 14:13-14 The Holy Bible , The New Living Translation

I have had the Lord tell me this three times in less than a year involving abusive relationships.

The first one He blessed me with insight on how to deal with abusive neighbors. When a confrontation occurred I found my actions and words to be taken over by the Lord. They were powerful and true. Needless to say , the neighbour has not come for round two.

The second one was about an abusive relative. The Lord informed me to just stay away from him. Through the grapevine I have learned what he was doing to me is being done three times worse to him. Now , he is so busy with his problems he does not have time to scam me.

The third also involved an abusive relative that I am a live in care giver for. The Lord has informed me to step back and allow Him to deal with it. Her health has taken a nose dive and the pain she has caused me , the Lord has brought down upon her head and it is not nice but justifiable. I have learned that many of the things I was doing I do not have to do. Now , when she wants things done around here I just firmly but politely inform her that she gives money to the others while they do nothing and given me nothing while I do all the work. Those days are over. If she wants something done down here get them to do it. If they refuse or she does not want them to do it , then she has to pay me the equivalent of what she paid them to do anything around here ( which was very generous ) She recently did that and they were all furious they actually had to come down here and help out. I know my care giving duties and refuse to do anything extra unless she put the money in the hand first. If she can afford to give them money for doing nothing , then she can afford to give me money for the work done.

One of the most abused but silent parts of society are relatives that are care givers. Joseph a son of Jehovah

Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Immeka (Judges 6:12 The LORD Is with You ) that You have stood by my side when dealing with difficult folks that I was at my wits end on how to end their horrible abuse. You not only silenced them but also slammed down Your Divine punishment upon them. I exalt You in the name of the Supreme Judge who shall reward us all for that which we have done here on earth , Jesus Christ. Amen

May the Lord bless you with His victory in whatever insurmountable battle you are enduring right now. Joseph a son of Jehovah

Becomes a World Of

Keep me from deceitful ways Psalm 119:29 The Holy Bible , The New International Version

I have met folks that live in a fantasy world. They try to emulate someone on a TV show and actually convince themselves that it is real. They lie, deceive and connive to get what they want and convince themselves they are entitled to it. The longer they live this way the more removed they are from reality. Their fantasy world becomes a world of Hell when they eventually are forced to come into the real world. They have no real friends and their life is one of misery.

Try as hard as you may to run from it , the world of reality will eventually catch up to you. Joseph a son of Jehovah

We must depend upon The Holy Spirits guidance to direct us away from evil and toward Jesus.

Evil creeps in unnoticed a little at a time until it completely rules your life. Your life then becomes a living Hell.

Prayer: Please Jehovah Ori (Psalms 27:1 The LORD My Light ) always guide my walk to follow Your divine light. I is not popular in the dark world but is the only path that leads to our Heavenly home and makes sense in the here and now. I sincerely request this in the name of the Light of the World , Jesus Christ. Amen

May you always follow the light in a world of darkness and confusion. Joseph a son of Jehovah
