This morning I was up before the birds.
It was dark
outside when I was zipping my boots up my legs.
There was
fog hanging in the upper atmosphere when I crossed the river and headed uphill
through the woods; the fog lights were engaged.
I was headed
to Vancouver; for fellowship … and to bring Hanukkah candles home – they are
not sold locally.
Fellowship
was great, like it always is there 😊
The message
was about the background of Hanukkah – and how it closely relates to the global
events of today.
The
current Shmita (aka, ‘Year of Jubilee’) for our time period, started September
7th, 2021 … and will conclude September 26th, 2022. With
everything that is going on, on the world scene today: wars, rumors of wars,
degenerate world {government officials, in high and civil seats}, corrupt
spiritual leadership & an ignorant/arrogant worldly {church devoid
of Yeshua HaMashiach}, rampant perversions, infanticide, plagues, ect. – we could
very well expect to see Yeshua sooner; rather than later.
The first
song we sang, was an oldie – but a goodie 😉
Bob liked this song – Bob liked Paul Wilbur’s music.
It made
me cry – and smile – at the same time. These are the days of
Elijah, prophesied: and those days have been unfolding for decades. The wrapping up
of those days is getting closer and closer, every second of every day. That
makes me happy. I simultaneously cry and smile, because Bob rides the clouds
now … and soon Yeshua will crack the sky, and come riding into view on the
clouds – and Bob will be among those coming with Him, to gather me Home 😊 I
have waited for ‘a time such as this’ all my life. I am ready: I
am more than ready to be called to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.

The
second song we sung, was new to me – this was the first time I’d heard it: also
had me crying and laughing at the same time. But I liked it, and it resonated
with my spirit. Yeshua gave both Bob and I such peace when Bob’s spirit was
shedding his flesh and blood vessel. Yeshua was merciful during that hard time
of goodbye’s … and faithfully turned our mourning into dancing, and our sadness
into joy; and our hearts could sing through it all, because we knew where Bob
was going – Home, where we long to be. Bob got there before me: he is no
longer sorrowing – he is dancing, now, beyond the clouds; and though I was
really joyful for Bob when Bob walked from this life into a better one, my
spirit is only now learning to dance again, after 35 months of widowhood.
I am
healing. More and more with each passing day.
A new song.
Davidic dancing: not our fellowship, though – our dancers are not so fancy. This is the only rendition of this lovely song, I could find.
The third
song was also an oldie. It is a song of encouragement, full of promise: a
victory song 😊
A perfect
song for Shabbat – we can enter into our rest in full confidence that Yeshua
has everything that touches our lives, under control 😉
It is a wonderful feeling.
HE – and His greatness – is wonderful.
Another song,
new to me, was sung: I like it. It echoes my soul’s sentiments.
You Deserve The Glory Song.
There is
no ‘wokeness’ poison threaded through this fellowship – there are faces from
every ethnic group on the face of the Earth here, and politics are not courted.
We are a united Body of Believers. Yeshua is our only focus here; Jew and Gentile,
grafted together … rooted in Yeshua’s salvation. We are only sojourners here; earthly
poilitics with its toxic divisions, are not courted here.

Bob and I
started fellowshipping at this fellowship 24 years ago. Coming here is like
a breath of fresh air. I am glad my life is back on track again.
Praying toward Israel’s geographical location – FOR Israel’s protection.
A message
from Amir Tsarfati (in Israel) was shared. iran is bulldogging forward
in their plan to build the nuclear bomb, barak hussain obama funded … and the
obamanites are cheering it on. russia has troops on the borders, ready to aid
iran when the bomb is launched. This is prophecy being played out – and of
course, the enemy always takes aim at Israel at Hannukah. Again. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDMwnocPao0)
Israeli Defense
is preparing for confrontations with iran terrorist army, and iranian backers: (https://www.businessinsider.com/israeli-officials-readying-for-potential-conflict-with-iran-2021-11)
Since
tomorrow is the first day of Hanukkah, the message was about the background of
Hannukah.
I honor
the Hanukkah holiday because Yeshua honored it while He walked Earth as a man –
if God Himself recognized the significance of the event, then I will, too. The
Maccabees refused to assimilate and get lost in the paganism being forced on their
country, and people.
I can
identify 😉
And the
message of Hanukkah is pertinent to what is happening in America … and in
Israel, today.
Hanukkah Background - pagan assimilation ... or seperation (persecution/purging).
The similarities
between what was happening then is pretty much playing out between American
Congress/White House, and Israel today. Since 2009 with the rise of
the world’s {messiah} barak hussain obama – and the seating in America’s Congress
of obamanite muslim terrorists in our
governing high seats … Israel’s sworn enemies have been given the green light nod
to move forward with wiping Israel off the face of the Earth.
And
paganism has taken root in DC … with the obamanites determined to snuff out Christians,
and erase Christianity from the History of America.
Evil,
egged on by barak hussain obama and his DC cohorts, has blossomed into
devouring kudzu vines, spreading its strangling growth throughout the world. And
rumor has it that barak’s he-she ‘wife’ michael, is going to run for President
in 2024.
God help
us: 3 political coups with those 2 demons straight out of Hell
is enough! We don’t need a fourth ☹
A whole
new depth of anti-Christ was explored this afternoon.
Christians
have long been aware of the warnings about anti-Christ. Speculation about who
he might be has been talked about in The Church … as well as in the world; but
it has remained a mystery.
The message this afternoon kinda
expanded on the explanation given in Scripture. The spirit of anti-Christ has permeated
every corner of this planet since the beginning of time. It is a spirit – a spirit
that will invade a human at some point; bringing the second arrival of Yeshua Ha’Mashiach
back to Earth. This used to be taught in most of the mainstream churches
… now, it’s never taught – it’s not even a thought in most pew warmer’s
empty heads.
'Anti' means 'instead of' - a replacement of ... ANYTHING that denounces God is ANTI-CHRIST.
How to recognize the true Spirit of Elohei.
How to recognize the Anti-Christ spirit.
The anti-Christ spirit has been among us for a looooong time; boldly showing itself in today's American leadership, across the board.
Power corrupts, and corrupted power destroys.
Those who embrace, follow, and cleave to Yeshua WILL be persecuted - it cannot be escaped; we share with Yeshua IN EVERYTHING.
A Christian's body is the 'Temple of God' - His Spirit lives IN us. That is why Christians are hated. A Christian that is embraced by the world, is NOT a true Christian … just sayin’: light is no kin to darkness.
After
fellowship, I bought some Hanukkah Candles for tomorrow’s candle lighting 😊
And then
decided to take a side trip to Battle Ground before heading home; most of the
route was on roads I’d never traveled before. I am making friends with GPS …
and learning my way around by instinct, when GPS isn't a fickle friend that cuts
out along the way.
I’ll
never be as good as Bob was, about instinctively getting around places; but,
I am learning how to be like Bob in finding 101 ways to get to, and from, places 😉
Eventually,
I’ll be proficient enough at driving these backroads (repeat, repeat, repeat
the routes until they are branded into my gray matter) – that I won’t need
GPS's fair-weathered ‘friendship’.
Decided to take a side trip to Battle Ground after Fellowship.
A new route ... never been on this route with Bob; it's totally new.
New roads - new scenery; a new experience.
I like Albertson's - I like that I can get there from Fellowship. BONUS!
The
misting rain had dried up when I parked and went inside the store – but by the
time I got my purchases into the backend of the Highlander, the store cart in
its designated slot, and slid into the driver’s seat … it started raining. Heavily.
It started raining in earnest, so I sat a while in the parking lot before heading home.
I didn’t sit
in the parking lot too long – I wanted to be home before twilight.
And I wanted to skip travel on
the freeway.
Traveling
over Lane Road, and praying the road where the patches of it had previously
slid way, were still intact … I admit I was more than a little apprehensive. But
I really wanted to avoid the frenzied freeway movement in the rainstorm.
My
prayerful SOS kept me safe in those slide patches, but Mother Nature snagged
my attention with one of them. I was wishing at that point, that I was
in a 4x pickup instead of the Highlander SUV – a pickup can go places a car
cannot.
My wings have been clipped until Spring
of 2022.
Tempted fate by traveling the slip-sliding Lane Road off Green Mountain Road; out of Woodland.
Lane Road is starting to slide.
But at
least I got the candles for tomorrow – I really wanted them. I am more myself
this year, and it will be nice to recognize this holiday in the way it is to be
honored.
I won’t mind
so much now sitting the next 15 weeks out 😉
Older and newer Hanukkah candles - I bought the white, this afternoon.
I bought these 2 boxes of candles today; all 3 types will be used during this year's Hanukkah celebration.
