HE RESTORES MY SOUL Shabbat Shalom and Shnat Shabaton dearly beloved! The first step for soul restoration is the restoration of HOPE, without HOPE nothing else can happen. Faith can only become tangible in our lives if HOPE is present: “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Hebrews 11:1 Faith becomes SUBSTANCE when there is HOPE inside of us. Most people do not have a problem with faith but rather with HOPE. Hopelessness is more common than we know. Quantities of faith people are going around with a smile covering up deep despair and hopelessness. Most hopelessness comes from a place of dashed expectations. When we expected some things to happen, to come to pass and they did not it actually breaks our hearts and our hearts leak out all the HOPE that was inside. Hope is like OIL in our motor if we have an oil leak in the car it won’t take long until our car breaks down altogether. In that case the only sane thing to do is to ground the car and take it to the garage to fix the motor (the ‘heart’ of the car) and fix whatever is causing the leak. If we continue driving the car instead of the warning signs (normally a red light in the dashboard) we will wreck the car and may not be able to fix it again. We may lose the car if we don’t STOP and take it in for FIXING. This is what YAH is doing this year, He is forcing us to STOP, lay down in GREEN PASTURES, besides QUIET WATERS so that He can RESTORE OUR SOULS and stop the leak of HOPE and replenish us with NEW OIL. There are two things that must be done: 1) Locate the leak and FIX IT 2) Fill up with NEW OIL
Listening to YAH’S instruction this year to enter into His Shabbat Rest, both weekly and this whole year may be a matter of life and death for you and for your ministry. I don’t know what you have to do in order to accommodate REST, RETREAT and RELAXATION but I have had to say NO to overseas invitations to travel and minister, Besides one that we had pending from last year anything that came our way for this year we have said no to. In other words, we stopped the traveling ministry until we are FIXED and our oil leak is located and we are filled with NEW OIL. We are going to have a PERSONAL REVIVAL that will affect the ENTIRE WORLD! What about you do you need a PERSONAL REVIVAL? Have you had your heart broken lately? How is your HOPE doing??? Why do we lose HOPE? Mostly because of disappointments. I have made a list of my disappointments and it is a big one. In fact I became professional at keeping on going with a BROKEN HEART. Because I am a woman of faith, I can go on and on even when everything looks like it’s crumbling around me and even when none of YAH’S promises come to pass. The problem with that is that I ran out of HOPE yet not out of FAITH but faith can’t work without HOPE! Faith is substance of things hoped for! I became a professional at going on – on EMPTY and giving from nothing! I have so much to give that even my nothing is more than most people’s ‘something’ but compared to what is really possible for me it is nothing! Can you identify with me? Am I talking to somebody? I don’t know what happened to you in 2006 but in 2006 my son, a soldier in the IDF (Israeli Defense Forces) tried to commit suicide twice during the War with Lebanon (he miraculously COULD NOT DIE, HaleluYAH!!!), my house was broken into by local Arabs, all my jewels, cash and many electronics were stolen (most of it the insurance has paid and the seven fold is coming! Praise Yah!!!) and my husband suffered a heart attack (from which he is recovering remarkably!). All that happened in ONE YEAR. Shall I tell you what has happened to me in the last 18 years? The more I preached the Message of RESTORATION that I carry, the KEY OF ABRAHAM that opens the door of REVIVAL world wide with signs, wonders and miracles, the more that satan tried to destroy me. It is the same principality that exterminated my people in Auschwitz! And yet through it all I have kept going without even batting an eyelid. Why? Because I trust His promises even when all seems to be going wrong. “Though the fig tree may not blossom, Nor fruit be on the vines; Though the labor of the olive may fail, And the fields yield no food; Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, And there be no herd in the stalls— Yet I will rejoice in Yahweh, I will joy in the Elohim of my salvation.” Habakkuk 3:17-18 The above scriptures have sustained me through the last 18 years of my life! I am comfortable in them, they have sustained me. I have rejoiced and trusted YAH in the midst of nothing happening, nothing being fulfilled. I have believed Him no matter what! But in order to move on to FULFILLMENT, we must get the HOPE BACK, the expectations back. We must get those hearts healed, the leaks and disappointments fixed so we can EXPECT REWARDS and EXPECT FULFILLMENT. “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to Elohim must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” Hebrews 11:6 He is a REWARDER to those that seek Him! I want you to declare it with me now: “HE IS MY REWARDER!”
This is the year of the OPEN DOOR of fulfillment, a year to REST in His Promises and to REST in our souls, bodies and spirits. It is the year to get all of our HOPE back. Stop, take time to pray in the Spirit, to rest to write down your promises, those that He has said will all come to pass. He is not a man that He should lie! Write them down, go back to declare and believe His Word. Allow Him to heal your heart, to stop the leak and to put some NEW HOPE OIL in you. It is time to move on from Habakkuk 3:17, 18 to Habakkuk 3:19, “Though the fig tree may not blossom, Nor fruit be on the vines; Though the labor of the olive may fail, And the fields yield no food; Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, And there be no herd in the stalls— Yet I will rejoice in Yahveh, will joy in the God of my salvation. Yahweh Elohim is my strength; He will make my feet like deer’s feet, And He will make me walk on my high hills.”
I believe that THIS YEAR of Shabbat I will see the fulfillment of so many of His promises to me that by December 2007 the ministry and I will be virtually unrecognizable. You will hear the same Message that I have always preached and will preach until He returns to Yerushalayim but THE WAY you will hear it and the POWER and BLESSING behind it will be another ‘ ball game’ altogether. I am about to reap some REWARDS this year because I believe that He delights with blessing us with His FULNESS ON SHABBAT and this is a SHABBAT YEAR. “If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, From doing your pleasure on My holy day, And call the Sabbath a delight, The holy day of Yahweh honorable, And shall honor Him, not doing your own ways, Nor finding your own pleasure, Nor speaking your own words, Then you shall delight yourself in Yahweh; And I will cause you to ride on the high hills of the earth, And feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father. The mouth of Yahweh has spoken.” Isaiah 58:13, 14 I am fixing to ride on the HIGH PLACES of the earth and to get the inheritance of Jacob my father, a LAND FLOWING WITH MILK AND HONEY! Are you coming with me? Get your HOPE back this year and GO through the OPEN DOOR. There is an OPEN DOOR of RESTORATION for your entire being in Israel for you THIS YEAR as you join our SPIRITUAL ALYAH TOURS AND TRAININGS. Do not miss it!
