The Veil and the Covering

Yahweh is so multifaceted! He exists in various times and in various ways, and He is constantly speaking. We know that Yahweh is Light, and this Light that He is is our Life. Light is beauty, it's frequency; it's motion and it's matter. It comes in many forms. The fullness of Light that we have yet seen is white light, and it contains within it every color both known and unknown. Then we can see the actual colors, and light can be filtered. We can see red light and blue light and yellow light. Each of these facets of Light is Yahweh. The white light must be filtered, must be hidden in a certain time and place so that we can see the other facets of light, the colors... the rainbow! Yet, how can Yahweh hide Himself as White Light from us? And how can He share Himself as Purple Light lest He hide some aspects of Himself? Thus He established the Veil. In the great expanse of Infinite-Eternity, He set up many Veils so that we could not see so much that we fail to see at al...

The Marriage of the Lamb and His Bride

Before reading this post, check out my poem  "The Bride's Submission"  on my Zadokim blog. In Hebrew there is a word and a concept called Ezer Kenegdo. This was the word used for Eve when she was created of Adam's flesh. She would be his Ezer Kenegdo, which is often translated into English as helper or helpmeet, but which really means "strong equal one" or "one who stands face to face with." This is how a man and woman should operate when they are husband and wife. Together they are strong equals, and they are something different than they were when they were single. As the Bride of Christ, we are His Ezer Kenegdo. I was going to say, "We all know that after marrying Him, we are strong equals to Christ," but we don't all know that, do we? If we did, we would not come to Him with cringing fear of rejection or with pleas for help with situations that we are well-equipped to handle ourselves. Imagine what life would be like if yo...

My Rapture

Some Will Call It Miracles Some will call it miracles When Reality is seen, When all comes to the fullness that’s Beyond our wildest dreams Some will call it faithfulness When manifestation’s known When all that you hold in your hand Is the blessing fully grown Some will call it beautiful, Some will know it as divine, But I will know my Father’s Heart And that this is truly mine For some will call it glory And expect it from above, But this is my Life’s story And I choose to call it Love. As I said before, I don't usually start my blog posts with a poem, but certain things lend themselves to each other. This was just too perfect.  It has come to the fullness of the course of time for a wondrous moment that all can see. This moment is not limited or relegated to anything, but as it is here we should take advantage of it. A beautiful season of Yahweh has come, staring with the Eclipse on Monday and continuing through the Hebrew month ...

Religion vs. Relationship

In the Beginning, each of us was created to relate to Yahweh. Our purpose was to receive the infinite Love that He wanted to express and then, by returning to Him, partner with Him as creators. Just as with any human relationship, your relationship with Yahweh will be unique and individual. Your partnership with Him in the Divine Dance will trace a different path than anyone else's. The way you interact with Him will be vastly different from the way that anyone else interacts with Him. You will know Him differently than anyone else knows Him. And yet, He is One. He will not be anything other than Himself. Due to His Infinite nature, however, we cannot presume to define Him. We can only experience Him as He shows Himself to us. Anyone who relates to Yahweh is blessed by that relationship. Sometimes people don't know that they have the ability to relate to Yahweh as individuals. They either think that they have to relate to Yahweh like someone else relates to Him or they co...

Partial Revelations

I don't usually post my poems on this blog. I usually post them at  Zadokim . However, this poem is short and it leads into what I have to say so nicely! I think it is very important to note that today was a total eclipse only in a very narrow swath of the Earth. The rest of us experienced a partial eclipse, though it was no less glorious... just different. Something our society has forgotten is that differences do not mean there has to be a right and a wrong, a better or worse, a greater or lesser. But anyway... Eclipse When nine percent of the sun Still brings daylight And though the atmosphere changes I bask. I was surprised at how light it was today during the eclipse. I knew that it wouldn't be totally dark because we were not in the path of totality here in Arkansas, but I thought it might be like sunset... twilight or something! Instead the sky dimmed a little and a nice cool breeze came. The temperature seemed to lower quite perceptibly, even mor...

The Eclipse (August 21, 2017)

About a month or so ago, I started asking Yahweh about the eclipse. I knew that it would not be insignificant, and I wondered what the prophetic implications of the eclipse were. I knew it would be a time of revelation, but I really didn’t hear anything else. In the meantime, I kept dancing with Yahweh and didn’t worry about it. In the course of that dance, I wrote the poems "Awaken" and "The Stirring of the Prophets"  about a coming Kairos moment whose bang and reverberations were being felt by me in what was then the present, although I knew the moment was still in the future. I was not sure when that moment was, and I still don’t have all the pieces to that, but I think it is connected to the eclipse and the months of September and October. I feel it is no coincidence that the eclipse, the Hebrew month of changing directions with Yahweh and how you think, and the Fall Feasts of Trumpets, Atonement, and Tabernacles all occur in succession. This morning I...

Resonant Intercession

I have a confession to make: I never really believed in the power of prayer. Oh, I knew that I should believe in it, and so I kept praying anyway, reciting the litany of "God bless so-and-so" every night before bed, specifically mentioning my loved ones in my prayers and eventually ending with "and the world" so that everyone I didn't have time to mention was included anyhow. Yet, somehow, asking Yahweh for things never made sense to me. Even as a young person, I wondered why an omniscient, omnipotent being was waiting on my prayers to move in a direction that He had always longed to go. "Please heal so-and-so" is rather silly considering the fact that He knows so-and-so's needs, He desires the fulfillment of their needs more than I do, and He already finished that whole "sickness" idea on the cross. As I began to grow in Yahweh and realize that many of these lacks are not even Real, I found prayer even more silly. Really, Yahweh took...
