wife have reconciled and are now working to a strong and
happy marriage..We both talked and realized that without God
in our lives ,...nothing will ever go right! We are seeking
him out and he is answering our cries!!..I have Stood strong
..although there were times when I felt like giving up ..at
those times I know it was God working through MHI to touch
me!!!. Your Emails would give me strengh and remind of the
things that are most important....Having faith and letting
him do his work....But most of all Trusting in him!!!

We are fresh from a recent Missionary trip from Santa fe
Mexico.....Not New Mexico But MEXICO!! There she was touched
by his presence .....and well  she was BAPTIZED!!!! there in
Mexico on the very Beautiful and Deserted Beach of Santa Fe,
Mexico...!!!!

These are Her own words "I want to leave all my past and
mistakes at the bottom of the ocean here in mexico,   from
here on out I want to live for him and I want God to guide
me in my marrige..I want to be cleansed and forgiven....a
new start"!!!!  WOW!!! He truelly is awesome and hears his
childern and their cries... Never did I expect that...Us
maybe start talking and working from there YES !!.... But
from one week to the next from not any communication with
her, to her hearing about me going on a missionary trip, to
wanting to go, to coming back baptized, and us talking and
planning on how to fix our marriage. He not only answered me
But SURPASSED ALL MY EXPECTATIONS!!!   3 Days was how long
we were in Mexico.. The first day it was really akward, that
was friday morning........By Sunday evening we were kissing
and holding eachother again.......like when we first
met!!... Thank you MHI,.. Thank you for helping not only me

And for the person who might read this and is going through
a difficult time in their marriage.....Truelly have faith in
him, Do not doubt his power, read his word morning and
night, pray and when you pray ..believe he is hearing you
..cause he really is, It will happen ....when HE WANTS TO
LET IT HAPPEN....NOT when YOU WANT IT TO.......BUT,... cause
there is always a but...during that time you must remain
faithful in his word and your trust must stay within
him....Dont doubt,... not for one second....that is the
hardest part!!!...but when you truely hand over the
situation for him to handle and you believe he will take
care of it............THATS WHEN HE WILL BLOW YOUR MIND ..

IN YOUR LIFE!!!!

Greetings Saints and Sinners...

This message will serve one of two purposes:  1) remind
those who are "in the way" of what they have been given and
cause them to be grateful   2) reprove those who are not "in
the way" that they are living in sin and must needs PERISH
if they do not REPENT and call upon the Name of Yahweh,
seeking for Him with all their hearts and surrendering their
lives to His precious Son as not only Redeemer, but MASTER!

The MASTER was teaching His disciples;

   And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a
   certain rich man brought forth plentifully: And he thought
   within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no
   room where to bestow my fruits? And he said, This will I
   do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and
   there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods. And I will
   say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for
   many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry. But
   Yahweh said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be
   required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which
   thou hast provided?

   So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not
   rich toward Yahweh. Luke 16:12-21

I want to talk about this a bit but first want to share with
you the meaning of the word "parable." The word parable
comes from the Greek:

3850 \~parabole\~ parabole {par-ab-ol-ay'}
from 3846; TDNT - 5:744,773; n f
AV - parable 46, figure 2, comparison 1, proverb 1; 50

-a comparing, comparison of one thing with another, likeness,
  similitude
-an example by which a doctrine or precept is illustrated
-a narrative, fictitious but agreeable to the laws and usages
  of human life, by which either the duties of men or the
  things of Yahweh, particularly the nature and history of
  Yahweh's kingdom are figuratively portrayed
-a parable: an earthly story with a heavenly meaning
-an act by which one exposes himself or his possessions to
  danger, a venture, a risk

3846 \~paraballo\~ paraballo {par-ab-al'-lo}
from 3844 and 906;; v
-to throw before, cast to (as fodder for horses)

Our MASTER wants us to know a few things here.  Firstly that
there is danger in putting our confidence in our
circumstances, especially the false sense of security that
comes from thinking we are in a good place because we have
money or possessions.  Elsewhere we find these very specific
admonitions:

  Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not
  highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the
  living Elohim, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;
  1Ti 6:17

  Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if
  riches increase, set not your heart upon them. Ps 62:10

  And the disciples were astonished at his words. But
  Yahushua answereth again, and saith unto them, Children,
  how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into
  the kingdom of YAHWEH! Mat 10:24

Secondly, the Messiah also wants us to understand that we
are not to STORE UP and HOARD what we have.  Pray that the
Spirit of the Father will give you understanding of these
things:

  For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall
  have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall
  be taken away even that he hath. Mat 13:12
  (see also Gen 31)

  There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is
  that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to
  poverty. Pro 11:24
  <see also Luk 19:12-27)

Our MASTER wants us to mindful of yet another principle in
this;

   Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived,
   and ye turn aside, and serve other elohim, and worship
   them Deu 11:16

   Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen
   of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which
   is in heaven. Mat 6:1   (Tax-deductible receipts???)

   Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to
   him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall
   be taken even that which he seemeth to have. Luk 8:18

   Take heed that no man deceive you. Mat 24:4

   Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life
   consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he
   possesseth. Luk 12:15

   Take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be
   overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of
   this life, and so THAT DAY come upon you unawares. Luk
   21:34 (the great and fearful day of Yahweh)

   Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest
   he fall. 1Co 10:12

This term "take heed" has a very clear meaning:
08104 \^rmv\^ shamar {shaw-mar'}
to keep, guard, observe, give heed, keep watch and ward,
protect, save life, to watch for, wait for, to keep (within
bounds), restrain celebrate, keep (sabbath or covenant or
commands), perform (vow) to be on one's guard, take heed,
take care, beware

Yahushua said it very plainly:  No man can serve two
masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the
other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the
other. Ye cannot serve YAHWEH and mammon (the spirit that
works through money to cause men to worship the "almighty
dollar" rather than the Almighty Elohim!). Mat 6:24

We encourage you to read this if you have never done so:
"The Scriptural Principles of Grace Giving"
http://MarriageHealing.ORG/grace.php

Finally, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, gave a warning:
your choices are related to your destiny.  The "fool"
did not know that his soul would be required of him.

  "He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso
   walketh wisely, he shall be delivered." Pro 28:26

Yahushua continued later...

   And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you,
   Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither
   for the body, what ye shall put on. The life is more than
   meat, and the body is more than raiment. Consider the
   ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have
   storehouse nor barn; and Yahweh feedeth them: how much more
   are ye better than the fowls?

   And which of you with taking thought can add to his
   stature one cubit?

   If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least,
   why take ye thought for the rest?

   Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they
   spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his
   glory was not arrayed like one of these. If then Yahweh so
   clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to
   morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe
   you, O ye of little faith? And seek not ye what ye shall
   eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful
   mind. For all these things do the nations of the world
   seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of
   these things.

   But rather seek ye the kingdom of Yahweh; and all these
   things shall be added unto you. Fear not, little flock;
   for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the
   kingdom.

   Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags
   which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth
   not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.
   For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

   Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning;
   And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their master,
   when he will return. Blessed are those servants, whom the
   master when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto
   you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down
   to meat, and will come forth and serve them. And if he
   shall come in the second watch, or come in the third
   watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants. And
   this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what
   hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not
   have suffered his house to be broken through.

   Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at
   an hour when ye think not. Luke 12:22-40

Our prayer is that you will TRULY meditate DEEPLY on these
passages until the Spirit of our Master transform and renew
your mind to be SET-APART for His purposes and that you will
not see the "cares of this world" the same way any more.
ABANDON your self-sufficiency and self-reliance in exchange
for HIS matchless provision.  You will not have to WORRY
about what you will eat, where you will sleep, or what you
will wear because Yahweh will provide for your EVERY NEED
according to His riches...

Todah!

Partial Victory or Total Lie?
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

As is nearly always the case, the sheeple of this nation
gobble up what is fed to them by the mainstream media
and their lives and their views are shaped accordingly.

Case in point:

The so-called "Ban on Partial Birth Abortions" recently
"upheld" by the "Supreme Court." (There is only ONE
Supreme Court and it isn't found in Washington, D.C.
It is overseen by the ONLY righteous Judge)

Like so much of the supposed "law of the land" what is
and what is BELIEVED to be are worlds apart.  We suggest
that it is a good thing to read, study and know the law
before zealously perpetuating a position that is more
often than not patently false.

Here is the ACTUAL law as it reads:

"The term 'partial-birth abortion', means an abortion in
which the person performing the abortion deliberately and
intentionally vaginally delivers a living fetus until, in
the case of a head-first presentation, the entire fetal head
is outside the body of the mother, or, in the case of breech
presentation, any part of the fetal trunk past the navel is
outside the body of the mother, for the purpose of
performing an overt act that the person knows will kill the
partially delivered living fetus."

<a 
href="http://www.nrlc.org/abortion/pba/partial_birth_abortion_Ban_act_final_language.htm">
Read it for yourself</a>.

All this illusionary ban does is prohibit the killing of an
unborn child providing the baby is already dead before its
entire head or belly button is outside the body of their
mother. The so-called ban's actual language reads more like
a step-by-step guide to precisely lead the abortionist's
bloody act while taking the life of a defenseless and
innocent baby.

This illusionary ban will almost assuredly fail to prevent
one precious life from being saved.  Just another fraudulent
"legal loophole" inked out by the scribes of today.

Wrath has already come and is coming in EPIC proportions
upon this nation for it's shameless and evil infanticide
to the tune of 3,500 dead preborn babies every day.

There is only ONE hope and that is national repentance..
