Gratitude

Oh Divine Spirit and Light of the World I am a child of yours who loves and adore you my blessed Father Mother God.  I have searched within until I was able to hear you and communicate to you my feelings, my hurts as well as my fears.  You have always been there night and day always knowing my heart. I knew that you could hear me because you always have brought to me the answers I need and require in my life to open my heart more through awareness, guidance, healing and love.

I have been lost and you found me and gave me hope and desire to feel whole and connected again.  You sent me an angel who called me to remember who I was and where I came from; and I was overwhelmed with compassion and gratitude.

When I look for answers you send them to me in the way I can receive them and understand them.

Oh Divine Spirit and Light of the World I am a child of yours who loves you and seeks to be a better human being and soul so that I may continue to be of service to you and those you send forth to me to assist in whatever way they require.

You have graced me with a most wonderful, loving and joyful family of friends. There are times when I sit with you with my heart open and reflect about the miracle of this gift and wonder how on earth am to give back all that I have received.

I hold the virtue of hope in my heart at all times, especially the times of difficulties, disappointments and sorrow.  I hold hope that if it is a struggle placed upon friendships or family that healing reaches the core of our souls,  so we may be blessed with growth and feel stronger and more connected, a bond to be of honest and loving appreciation of one another.

Of recent you gave me the gift of time and the funds to be able to travel and renew my soul and my body, as well as my mind.  It was a journey of great lessons and powerful moments between those I love and have missed in my daily life.  There is a bond that is so strong built on truth and honesty, laughter and joy, sorrow and healing the greatest gift of all Love.

Oh Spirit of Light and Love, my Father Mother God All that Is, I pray for the knowledge, the wisdom and will to continue to be of service with a good and kind heart to all those who enter into my world. And may I service them with truth and beauty. The Cosmic Heart and Soul of All, have shown me and taught me to live as an aspect of the Christ Light-Love. WE are those who shall inherit Heaven on Earth.

My love and deep appreciation of the miracle of life  everlasting,

Within all of us, we have this desire to be joined together with another as one. This belief has had many names and titles. It is ingrained in all of us. It goes back to the beginning when we were created in the bosom of God.

To return back to the central point of creation and be rejoined with the One.

To us, as created beings, it is to have the breath placed within us from God. That one might moment, where we begin to have knowledge and what is called a soul. Placed on this planet, to be joined with others of Like kind. Those of the race, brought here in separation from God, and always striving to return to that point in time of creation.

Personally I think that the concept of one true perfect mate has been around forever and ever, as old as humans, though the label may change over time.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soulmate

Bashert, Ana Cara, red string of fate, marriage made in heaven, soul mate, twin flame, twin soul... all the same thing, only the name is different. "Soul mate" may have simply fallen out of fashion because it came to mean "many" rather than only one, and thus "twin flame" was coined. But that wasn't even good enough so then someone coined "twin soul."

The more interesting question is "why do humans throughout all time, cultures, whether arranged marriages or love matches, consistently hold a belief that there is only one perfect complement?" Especially since such a belief seems to cause such heart ache and suffering -- it is far easier to believe that with the right attitude one could fall in love with any multitude of people.

again

Twin flame concept -

When we were taken from that place of creation, we were as One and whole. Male and Female. Separated from the well of souls taken and broken asunder as two.

Many strive to understand this principle and it has some standing in thought, but upon death, we return to our point of origin. Not. As two souls, but as only one. Within us we have both male and female inside of us. If we were separated from the beginning, we would never have the place of redemption.

It is upon the moment that two are "married" and consummate that the souls are joined in the emotional, and ethearic that it becomes as One. Two fires joined.

It's is confusing in this place and time that the precept be even an issue. I am not one to judge, and in that, we shall end this conversation. I will consult in prayer that others will receive what they need to comprehend this whole thing. It has caused me great pain and suffering. I feel as a tormented soul, and as I get closer to the truth, the more difficult it becomes to receive what is needed for this understanding.

In love and light may the power of God be upon you.

Gift of Life

June 20th, 2012

Gift of Life - Friendship and Relationships with those you consider friends and family. My dad once told me that if you had enough friends to count on one hand you were lucky and blessed.
They would be the friends you knew without a doubt you could count on no matter what and it turns out that my dad was correct...

After these many years of my life, there are but a few people in my life I would call my adult family and friends, and with them, I know without a doubt I can count on them no matter what is going on, they are there to assist me, love me no matter what, and guide me and most of all love me for who I AM. Never have to have a mask on, they do not take advantage of my gifts and talents, they are wonderful and I love them.

Friendship is so special in life that I believe that it is a journey to keep your friends, not work, but, joy, strength, respect, understanding and the desire to be there for them. What we give out we receive back and for me, if you are a REAL friend, a loving and forgiving friend, than you will have those in your life that return those virtues to you.

May you all recognize those in your life that are there for you no matter what and love you even after they see you with your mask...and without your mask. Freedom to be who you truly are....So Good.

May you also be wise with those that are not your true friends and have the courage to be there if they need you and then bless them. God will always be there to love and care for us all.

Be well, Live well, Love deeply and be true to thine own self......

Names of God

Devotion and Dedication

After G-d figured out that Elijah the prophet didn’t understand what is the correct way to believe in him and to be his prophet, it's written in the Hebrew Bible-

"וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֵלָיו, לֵךְ שׁוּב לְדַרְכְּךָ מִדְבַּרָה דַמָּשֶׂק; וּבָאתָ, וּמָשַׁחְתָּ אֶת-חֲזָאֵל לְמֶלֶךְ--עַל-אֲרָם. וְאֵת יֵהוּא בֶן-נִמְשִׁי, תִּמְשַׁח לְמֶלֶךְ עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל; וְאֶת-אֱלִישָׁע בֶּן-שָׁפָט מֵאָבֵל מְחוֹלָה, תִּמְשַׁח לְנָבִיא תַּחְתֶּיךָ. וְהָיָה, הַנִּמְלָט מֵחֶרֶב חֲזָאֵל--יָמִית יֵהוּא; וְהַנִּמְלָט מֵחֶרֶב יֵהוּא, יָמִית אֱלִישָׁע"

"The LORD said to him, “Go, return on your way to the wilderness of Damascus, and when you have arrived, you shall anoint Hazael king over Aram; And Jehu the son of Nimshi you shall anoint king over Israel; And Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah you shall anoint as prophet in your place. It shall come about, the one who escapes from the sword of Hazael, Jehu shall put to death, and the one who escapes from the sword of Jehu, Elisha shall put to death"(1 Kings 19:15-17)

This passage for me is a masterpiece. G-d firstly speaks with Elijah about two leaders that will be kings, Hazael and Jehu. Only after that, he tells Elijah that he won't continue to be a prophet, without telling him that he is too zealous- he tells him- Elisha is going to be in your place.
When Elijah met Elisha he threw his mantle over him. If you'll learn the Biblical Hebrew you will find out that the mantle is a sign of power that the leader or the prophet had, and if he lost it, he isn't the leader anymore. Let us enjoy the beautiful verses-

"וַיֵּלֶךְ מִשָּׁם וַיִּמְצָא אֶת-אֱלִישָׁע בֶּן-שָׁפָט, וְהוּא חֹרֵשׁ, שְׁנֵים-עָשָׂר צְמָדִים לְפָנָיו, וְהוּא בִּשְׁנֵים הֶעָשָׂר; וַיַּעֲבֹר אֵלִיָּהוּ אֵלָיו, וַיַּשְׁלֵךְ אַדַּרְתּוֹ אֵלָיו. וַיַּעֲזֹב אֶת-הַבָּקָר, וַיָּרָץ אַחֲרֵי אֵלִיָּהוּ, וַיֹּאמֶר אֶשְּׁקָה-נָּא לְאָבִי וּלְאִמִּי, וְאֵלְכָה אַחֲרֶיךָ; וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ לֵךְ שׁוּב, כִּי מֶה-עָשִׂיתִי לָךְ. וַיָּשָׁב מֵאַחֲרָיו וַיִּקַּח אֶת-צֶמֶד הַבָּקָר וַיִּזְבָּחֵהוּ, וּבִכְלִי הַבָּקָר בִּשְּׁלָם הַבָּשָׂר, וַיִּתֵּן לָעָם, וַיֹּאכֵלוּ; וַיָּקָם, וַיֵּלֶךְ אַחֲרֵי אֵלִיָּהוּ--וַיְשָׁרְתֵהוּ."

"So he departed from there and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, while he was plowing with twelve pairs of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth. And Elijah passed over to him and threw his mantle on him. He left the oxen and ran after Elijah and said, “Please let me kiss my father and my mother, then I will follow you.” And he said to him, “Go back again, for what have I done to you?” So he returned from following him, and took the pair of oxen and sacrificed them and boiled their flesh with the implements of the oxen, and gave it to the people and they ate. Then he arose and followed Elijah and ministered to him."(1 Kings 19:19-21)

According to Elijah's behavior, we can figure out his difficulties. It's wasn't easy to be fired by G-d. He threw the mantle at Elisha, maybe because he is desperate, but when Elisa approached him, he said to him – go back. Even at the beginning of 2 Kings 2, which is one of the greatest chapters in the Bible, we can see this attitude to Elisha, as written:

"וַיְהִי, בְּהַעֲלוֹת יְהוָה אֶת-אֵלִיָּהוּ, בַּסְעָרָה, הַשָּׁמָיִם; וַיֵּלֶךְ אֵלִיָּהוּ וֶאֱלִישָׁע, מִן-הַגִּלְגָּל. וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלִיָּהוּ אֶל-אֱלִישָׁע שֵׁב-נָא פֹה, כִּי יְהוָה שְׁלָחַנִי עַד-בֵּית-אֵל, וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלִישָׁע, חַי-יְהוָה וְחֵי-נַפְשְׁךָ אִם-אֶעֶזְבֶךָּ; וַיֵּרְדוּ, בֵּית-אֵל. ... וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ אֵלִיָּהוּ אֱלִישָׁע שֵׁב-נָא פֹה, כִּי יְהוָה שְׁלָחַנִי יְרִיחוֹ, וַיֹּאמֶר, חַי-יְהוָה וְחֵי-נַפְשְׁךָ אִם-אֶעֶזְבֶךָּ; וַיָּבֹאוּ, יְרִיחוֹ.... וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ אֵלִיָּהוּ שֵׁב-נָא פֹה, כִּי יְהוָה שְׁלָחַנִי הַיַּרְדֵּנָה, וַיֹּאמֶר, חַי-יְהוָה וְחֵי-נַפְשְׁךָ אִם-אֶעֶזְבֶךָּ; וַיֵּלְכוּ, שְׁנֵיהֶם"

" And it came about when the LORD was about to take up Elijah by a whirlwind to heaven, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal. Elijah said to Elisha, “Stay here please, for the LORD has sent me as far as Bethel.” But Elisha said, “As the LORD lives and as you yourself live, I will not leave you… Elijah said to him, “Elisha, please stay here, for the LORD has sent me to Jericho. ” But he said, “As the LORD lives, and as you yourself live, I will not leave you. ” So they came to Jericho… Then Elijah said to him, “Please stay here, for the LORD has sent me to the Jordan. ” And he said, “As the LORD lives, and as you yourself live, I will not leave you.” So the two of them went on."(2 Kings 2, 1-2,4,6)

In Gilgal , Beth-El and Jericho, Elijah wants to say goodbye, but Elisha wants to stay with his master until the last second! The persistence of Elisha brought Elijah to understand that as he was dedicated to G-d, Elisha is devoted to him as written "the two of them went on". I do hope that from these two characters we will learn what is devotion and how we shouldn't be zealous towards people or to an idea- only for our own self gain.

Pray that others will share this message with someone.

thank you..

Joyful

Seems that I feel Joyful today. Usually we just muddle through the days, one step at a time. Thinking of all the things that need to be done, or where we are going or who we have to meet. Just take a moment in time, those precious moments that make us who we are.

Take a moment to think about all you have, and be joyful. Reach for the stars. Know yourself. Be happy.

Armor of God

Armor of God

"Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand" (Ephesians 6:13).

the belt of truth... having sound doctrine which comes from studying the bible (the belt is used to hold the sword, plus the rest of the equipment)

the breastplate of righteousness... we are found righteous is Jesus and we shouldn't go anywhere without Him (a soldier would never go into combat with out it - it protects our heart, the most vital organ in our body)

the sandals of peace/readiness... we need to be ready to spread the Word of God and we cant go running with out the proper shoes (the work of Jesus brought peace to us with God & we need to spread that)

the shield of faith... the only protection from an arrow being shot from the air at you would be your shield, the soldiers trusted their shields to help protect them (our faith is the same way, we need to have faith in God that He will be with us through it all. we can't rely on our own abilities)

the helmet of salvation... used to protect the head, but by saying it is salvation means total deliverance (Jesus is our salvation, in Him we find deliverance from every trial-emotional, physical & spiritual)

the sword of the Spirit... the sword is a deadly weapon! as is the Bible! (God's Word is powerful! it is something that we need to carry around with us ALWAYS! you don't have to actually carry around a bible where ever you go, but you should carry it in your heart -memorize, memorize, memorize)

Why Spiritual Armor?

Rom 13:12 (NIV) The night is almost gone, and the day is near. Therefore let us lay aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.
Jer 46:3-4 (NIV) "Prepare your shields, both large and small, and march out for battle! Harness the horses, mount the steeds! Take your positions with helmets on! Polish your spears, put on your armour!"
1 Cor 14:8 (GLT) For if a trumpet gives an uncertain sound, who will get himself ready for war?

Stand!

Luke 21:36 (NIV) "Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man."

Mal 3:2 (NAS) But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears?..

1 Cor 10:12-13 (NIV) So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall! No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.

Jude 1:24 (Wey) But to Him who is able to keep you safe from stumbling, and cause you to stand in the presence of His glory free from blemish and full of exultant joy...

Jas 4:7 (NAS) Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

The Belt of Truth

Eph 6:14 (NRS) ...fasten the belt of truth around your waist...
Isa 11:5 (NIV) Righteousness will be his belt and faithfulness the sash round his waist.
Ex 12:11 (NIV) This is how you are to eat it [the passover lamb]: with your cloak tucked into your belt, your sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand...

1 Kings 18:46 (NIV) The power of the Lord came upon Elijah and, tucking his cloak into his belt, he ran ahead of Ahab all the way to Jezreel.

Eph 4:25 (NKJ) Therefore, put away lying, "Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor."

Ray Stedman: "No Christian has the right to a private life. Our lives are to be lived openly before all men, transparent, a spectacle unto all the world. We have no private lives and we must not expect to have. This is basically and fundamentally wrong. Christians are to be demonstrations of the truth."

John 4:24 (NIV) "God is spirit, and his worshippers must worship in spirit and in truth."

Col 3:8-10 (NIV) But now you must rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander and filthy language from your lips. Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.

2 Th 2:10 (NIV) ...They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.

The Breastplate of Righteousness

Php 3:9 (NRS) ...Not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but one that comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God based on faith.

Isa 59:16-17 (NAS) ...Then His own arm brought salvation to Him, and His righteousness upheld Him. He put on righteousness like a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on His head...

Ex 28:15 (NIV) "Fashion a breastpiece for making decisions... Make it like the ephod..."

1Ki 3:9 (NIV) So give your servant a discerning heart to govern your people and to distinguish between right and wrong.

Ps 94:15 (NIV) Judgment will again be founded on righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it.

Pr 2:7-8 (NIV) He holds victory in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless, for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones. Then you will understand what is right and just and fair--every good path.

Standing on The Gospel

Eph 6:15 (NIV) ...your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.

Eph 6:15 (Wey) ...as well as the shoes of the Good News of peace--a firm foundation for your feet.

Rom 10:15 (KJV) ...As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!"

Imagine yourself standing barefooted in a rocky climate, like in the Middle East. You could move--ever so carefully--but without shoes you would be useless in battle. The weight of the other pieces of armor would only make your feet more sensitive if you had no protection. You would be a "push-over" for the enemy, as you would have no agility and be wincing in pain every time you attempted to move. This is why it is essential to have our "feet shod with the gospel of peace".

1 Cor 15:1-4 (Wey) But let me recall to you, brethren, the Good News [Gospel] which I brought you, which you accepted, and on which you are standing, through which also you are obtaining salvation, if you bear in mind the words in which I proclaimed it--unless indeed your faith has been unreal from the very first...-- thatChrist died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures; that He was buried; that He rose to life again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures.

This is the gospel as we have received it. It is foolishness to many, but life and light to those who believe in it and are willing to follow and be "included in" Christ's death. In practice, the Gospel means we are dead to our self-life with all of its lusts and instincts, and alive with new life in Christ. The good news is that by considering ourselves "dead men" in Christ, we can be put at peace with God in Christ. If we have truly died to self, then over time our instincts will be "dead" to the rocks and glass and thorns of this world which used to move us. Those standing on the gospel will not react in the flesh. Instead, we will move by God's Spirit with aprotected disregard for such "fleshly" considerations, being "readied" by the "shoes" of the "death, burial, and resurrection of Christ", which is the Gospel that brings peace.

1 Pet 2:11 (NAS) Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly lusts which wage war against the soul.

Gal 5:16-17 (NAS) But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please.

Rom 8:5-13 (NAS) For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. ...the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so, and those who are in the fleshcannot please God... But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you. So then, brethren, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh--for if you are living according to the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you are putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

Isa 52:6-7 (NIV) "Therefore my people will know my name; therefore in that day they will know that it is I who foretold it. Yes, it is I. How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation [Yeshua, Jesus!] who say to Zion, 'Your God reigns!'"

The Helmet Of Salvation [Jesus]

Isa 59:16-17 (KJV) And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him. For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation [Yeshua] upon his head...

1 Th 5:8 (NAS) But since we are of the day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love; and as a helmet, the hope of salvation.

Ps 140:7 (NAS) "O God the Lord, the strength of my salvation [Yeshua], You have covered my head in the day of battle."
Jesus--Yeshua in Hebrew--means "Salvation". Salvation is Jesus Christ.
Col 1:18 (NKJ) And He is the head of the body, the church...

1 Cor 2:16 (NIV) "For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him?" But we have the mind of Christ.
Php 2:5 (NKJ) Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus...

1 Pet 4:1 (NKJ) Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin.

2 Cor 10:3-5 (NRS) Indeed, we live as human beings, but we do not wage war according to human standards; for the weapons of our warfare are not merely human, but they have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every proud obstacle raised up against the knowledge of God, and we takeevery thought captive to obey Christ.

Eph 4:14-16 (NKJ) ...We should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head--Christ--from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.

The Sword of The Spirit - The Word of God

Isa 49:2 (NAS) He has made My mouth like a sharp sword, In the shadow of His hand He has concealed Me; And He has also made Me a select arrow, He has hidden Me in His quiver.

Matthew Henry: "To the Christian armed for defense in battle, the apostle recommends only one weapon of attack; but it is enough, the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. It subdues and mortifies evil desires and blasphemous thoughts as they rise within; and answers unbelief and error as they assault from without. A single text, well understood, and rightly applied, at once destroys a temptation or an objection, and subdues the most formidable adversary."

Heb 4:12-13 (NKJ) For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.

2 Cor 6:7 (NIV) ...in truthful speech and in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left...

Ps 149:4-6 (NIV) For the Lord takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with salvation. Let the saints rejoice in this honour and sing for joy on their beds. May the praise of God be in their mouths and a double-edged sword in their hands.

The Shield of Faith

Eph 6:16 (Wey) ...take the great shield of faith, on which you will be able to quench all the flaming darts of the Wicked one.

Ps 35:1-3,9 (NIV) Contend, O Lord, with those who contend with me; fight against those who fight against me. Take up shield and buckler; arise and come to my aid. Brandish spear and javelin against those who pursue me. Say to my soul, "I am your salvation."... Then my soul will rejoice in the Lord and delight in his salvation [yes, Yeshua again].

Ps 3:2-3 (GLT) Many are saying of my soul, There is no salvation for him in God. Selah. But You, O Jehovah, are a shield around me; [you are] my glory and He who lifts up my head.

1 Pet 1:5 (NAS) ...who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
Ps 33:20 (NIV) We wait in hope for the Lord; he is our help and our shield.

1 Tim 6:12 (NIV) Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

1 John 5:4-5 (Wey) For every child of God overcomes the world; and the victorious principle which has overcome the world is our faith. Who but the man that believes that Jesus is the Son of God overcomes the world?

Pr 30:5 (NIV) "Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him."

Be Strong In The Lord, By the Power of Grace

1 Cor 16:13 (NIV) Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong.

2 Tim 2:1 (GLT) ...Be empowered by grace in Christ Jesus.

Eph 3:7 (GLT) ...I was made a minister according to the gift of the grace of God given to me, according to the working of His power.

2 Cor 9:8 (NIV) And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

Col 1:11 (Wey) Since His power is so glorious, may you be strengthened with strength of every kind, and be prepared...

Php 4:13 (NAS) I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.

The Battle is The Lord's

1 Sam 17:47 (NKJ) [David, speaking to Goliath] "Then all this assembly shall know that the Lord does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the Lord's,and He will give you into our hands."

Deut 20:3-4 (NIV) ..."Hear, O Israel, today you are going into battle against your enemies. Do not be faint-hearted or afraid; do not be terrified or give way to panic before them. For the Lord your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory."

Ps 18:32-35 (NIV) It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect. He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he enables me to stand on the heights. He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze. You give me your shield of victory, and your right hand sustains me; you stoop down to make me great.

Zec 4:6 (NIV) ..."'Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,' says the Lord Almighty."

Rom 11:36 (GLT) Because of Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever! Amen.
