Not Until the Last One Comes In

A good brother and friend of ours recently asked, “why do you think Messiah said He only came for the lost sheep of the house of Israel?” Messiah came to seek and to save the lost.

The Responsibility of Royalty

In a world of mixture, people blurred to the difference between light and darkness, truth and deception, there is a remnant arising who have found the clarity of living as set-apart royalty unto the King, the Master Yahushua.

Shabbat Thoughts (3/8/2014)

I’ve been praying and weeping a lot lately…praying for my voice to only be heard when it is relaying His voice! I only want to do, say and write what He tells me to!!
