Priest on-call in the Temple

Requirement of a priest of the temple

It is written…. Exodus 40: 12-15 New English Translation (NET Bible) 

 “You are to bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the tent of meeting and wash them with water.  Then you are to clothe Aaron with the holy garments and anoint him and sanctify him so that he may minister as my…

Matthew 17:20

And Jesus said to them, `Through your want of faith; for verily I say to you, if ye may have faith as a grain of mustard, ye shall say to this mount, Remove hence to yonder place, and it shall remove, and nothing shall be impossible to you,

Hebrews 11

And faith is of things hoped for a confidence, of matters not seen a conviction, for in this were the elders testified of; by faith we understand the ages to have been prepared by a saying…

 Are we not all feeling a strong desire or need for something else?

Time after time have our actions or thoughts not quenched our need for something? How long will we be moved by our thirst?  How long will we bend and how loud will we bellow? Day after day what words will we let spill of our tongues. Just so the thirst is quenched. But after…  Are we not still thirsty?

The word says

John 4:14 - But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst;…

Matthew 5:13-16King James Version (KJV)

13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

Who of use will be the unsalted?  Who of use shall lose the flavor and be good for nothing but to be cast aside and trampled by men.  Who among us will stand ready?  If men declare themselves the salt then how will you remain so.  Know…

All over the world the faces
of God’s children

Do we still think we are of no use
How  can we believe God created us simply for abuse

Oh God, Master, Holy One
Fill us with the Light.
Give us the strength to understand,
And the eyes to see all living things are one"

Teach us, teach us

Love is

The most effective medicine

Always unconditional.

A first step

Tis Pure

The secret key

To our creative journey

The inner link between man and God

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?…

Jesus Disciples

……. As true-believers we have a duty to impact this world. Our lives and lifestyles should reflect what side we are on.” The Lord's  Side." Our world should see that we are spirit-filled with joy and full of passion. They should see someone who has love oozing from their very words and that any given time love, peace and harmony should affirm that life in Christ is a precious experience.

My dear brothers and sisters..

Forgive your friends. They will love infinitely more.

Friendship and forgiveness must always run abreast.

The death of forgiveness compels the death of friendship.

We must feed our friendship with forgiveness,

and thus alone can we cherish a friendship

that will fail to close its eyes even for a brief second.

Friendship is based on forgiveness.

Today if your…

RESTORATION - AS IN THE BEGINNING



(A Word of Exhortation)



The Ancient of Days has called you to His side, to walk and talk with Him in the cool of the day. Far before the sun even rises, you will rise up with victory in your wings, making a covenant to commit your day and life into His hands. For this is a new day and a new beginning for you. Old things have passed away; behold, all things are made new, and I am calling you to My side to…

Bang!! ! there it is again, im down on my knees, with my head in my hands,

I stumble to my feet weaker then before, my head hurting, ears ringing and my spine killing.

I can see the light in the darkness that surrounds my life knowing that I will never reach it in time

my body is so weak and heavy, I find it hard to breath some times, the pain it hurts so much I think im dieing, my head is so full of noise it going to explode.

I feel so alone in this…

If the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand



So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth and warn them from me



Say unto them, As I live says the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked;…

Good news from the Graveyard

Graveyards are not usually fill with joy and hope  if you are

Depressed and felling bad, one of the least likely places in

“We would never learn to be brave and patient if there were only joy in the world,” wrote Helen Keller. How I wish she were wrong. Disappointments leave us with the unpleasant task of squashing, crushing, and pinching life’s lemons to extract anything to transform into lemonade

Newspaper columnist Ann Landers once wrote, “Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life, and when it comes, hold your head high. Look it squarely in the eye, and say, "I…
