Listen as Derek shares his heart on why we must embrace trials and temptation. We will never grow enough to overcome sin until we learn to take the right door of escape. We know that we have overcome sin in our lives when the thrill of winning the battle over temptation exceeds the thrill of the fulfillment of that temptation,…
By the death of Messiah Yahushua, our Savior, we have been released from the commandment of death in order to marry Another–the One who was raised from the dead to produce fruits of life unto Elohim (Romans 7:4 paraphrased). I am always intrigued by what I have difficulty in understanding. Sha’ul’s (Paul’s) writings, especially Romans 4-8, have been attacked by…
The theme of the Word of Elohim is being rewarded for what has been sown. Proverbs 11 is a good example of this. In fact, in Proverbs 11 verse 8, it speaks of the righteous who are delivered from trouble, yet the wicked take their place. In other words, if the righteous man is delivered out of a snare, there…
Listen, as Derek shares a special Yom Kippur Message (with intimate insights into 2 Corinthians 10), and calls to attention the subtle reasonings of the mind which so often challenge the authority and truth of the word of Elohim. If our flesh is submitted to what the Creator says is true, the enemy has no leverage to use our flesh against…
Hear this special message of preparation for all of Yahuweh’s set-apart ones. Today is the day for His set-apart ones to be hidden under the wings of the Almighty. He is gathering His chicks around Him. Today is the day of the beginnings of separation, and the thrust towards the ushering in of Messiah Yahushua–our Passover Lamb. To listen and/or…
hank You for the sunrise this morning, Abba. It means that life is continuing. It means that I have another chance to make You smile today. As long as I have breath in me, I am not defeated. You have not abandoned me to the grave, thus I will not abandon others to the grave. Compassion and forgiveness, You have…
With another poke of the proverbial stick of condemnation, she sat alone inside the cage she had built for herself, with the bars of rejection she had received from countless people in her life, whom she thought loved her. As she stepped off the street to get a taxi home to her broken down rental, the words she had heard…
Hanukkah… What comes to your mind when you hear this word? Gift giving? Decorating? Candle lighting? A “Jewish” Christmas? — I hope not! What should come to mind is victory over the enemy. I won’t go into the entire story here of the victory of the Maccabees, as you can read about it in 1st and 2nd Maccabees. But what I…
“And they overcame him because of the Blood of the Lamb, and because of the Word of their witness, and they did not love their lives to the death.” – Revelation 12:11 It is time! It is time to overcome because we have been enabled to overcome by the blood of the Lamb, and our witness that the blood has…
Ever since the day that Sha’ul (Paul) came to visit us, one Shabbat afternoon, while living in Florida, I have felt so close to my brother in Messiah. I had been sharing some revelations that I received in the book of Galatians. I was sitting on the floor, passionately going through one of the chapters, and explaining what I had…
—This is a word I received yesterday evening, 9/1/2015— “The entire theme of the Renewed Covenant is dying to the flesh. If there is no dying to the flesh, we are no different than the world and our belief in Messiah is in vain.” After the initial being taken back by this word, I began to ponder on its meaning.…
