Matthew 13:33 Another parable He spoke to them: "The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal till it was all leavened." The parable of the mustard seed reminds us not to overlook small beginnings. The miracle of the five loaves shows us not to dismiss small offerings. Now, I want to review the parable of the leaven, which teaches us not to ignore the hidden work. Yeshua (Jesus) says a woman takes leaven and hides it in three measures of meal until the whole batch is changed. At first, nothing seems dramatic. There is no noise or show. The leaven disappears into the dough, but once it is there, it starts to work. That is the mystery. The Kingdom often works where people cannot see. It...

"In the same way, the Lord ordered that those who preach the Good News should be supported by those who benefit from it." 1 Corinthians 9:14 (NLT) If you know that you're not operating in your call to priesthood as God described in Hosea, then I'm not speaking about you. Likewise, if you're a parishioner who trusts that your pastor is faithful to God's Word then Hosea Chapter 4 is not about them. Therefore, why get upset scoffing, "Who do I think I am?" You only make yourselves look guilty. People of God, please stop biting at me. I'm simply doing my job exactly as Jesus instructed. ⁵Jesus sent out the twelve apostles with these instructions: “Don’t go to the Gentiles or the Samaritans, ⁶but only to the people of Israel—God’s lost...

To Those Who Have Ears To Hear: Like Jeremiah, and every other prophet, whom God sends, it is my job, in such a time as this, to test the metal (the countenance) of the city. But, due to the twisting of the scriptures by those who seek to control God's ministries, many, who lack understanding, continue to walk in anger over trivial things. So many feel justified in mistreating me simply because "I call myself a prophetess." Please understand, I am well aware of the passage from whence their distorted view come. Howbeit, is not "prophetess" the appropriate terminology for a female indwelled with the gift of prophecy? This isn't Revelations 2:20, and I'm not Queen Jezebel. This is Joel 2:28, and I am a daughter who prophecies...

Those Who Have Ears To Hear: For that past ten years of this now fourteen year assignment, I have preached the message of "Repentance for the remission of sin." In like manner, have freely given of my spiritual gift of prophecy. As led by the Holy Spirit I have prophesied of flood; plague; and more recently, whirlwind. But, as is often the case amid true prophecy, many, being misled by false prophets, have rejected both prophetess and prophecy. Yet, those who despise still believe they are somehow entitled to blessings and rewards regardless of their unbelief and behavior. But God is no respecter of man. Again, rewards do not come from the messenger. Only the delivery of the message, along with communal instructions on how to attain...

Isn't it a "coincidence" that my hometown's counsel, who "coincidentally" made themselves available to her, primarily consists of my enemies. Furthermore, what a "coincidence" that their only advice to my hometown has been to seek to discredit, dishonor, and destroy me; and such to an elder. Yet, my own hometown people, who cast me out for being loyal to God, are upset with me because, likened to Jesus's hometown, they have only received light esteem? While I would have preferred it had they behaved as the city they claim to be; I wouldn't have it any other way now. Everything is manifesting exactly as Jesus foretold. Again, I have nothing to do with games. That aspect is part of the process, whereby God evaluates the city for a reward...

GOD BLESS YOU AND JESUS LOVES ALL OF YOU. Amen

To Those Who Have Ears To Hear: Delving a little deeper: While James 2:17 is a beautiful poetic depiction and directive of the essence of true worship, it also exposes those who are given to narcissism and selfishness. The Counsel of Diotrephes (Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees): ⁵Dear friend, you are being faithful to God when you care for the traveling teachers who pass through, even though they are strangers to you. ⁶They have told the church here of your loving friendship. Please continue providing for such teachers in a manner that pleases God. ⁷For they are traveling for the Lord, and they accept nothing from people who are not believers. ⁸So we ourselves should support them so that we can be their partners as they teach...

If God permits, my next few posts will devle deeper into this topic. However, today's focus is on this particular part that God set apart. Luke 11 (NLT) ³⁹Then the Lord said to him, “You Pharisees are so careful to clean the outside of the cup and the dish, but inside you are filthy—full of greed and wickedness! ⁴⁰Fools! Didn’t God make the inside as well as the outside? ⁴¹So clean the inside by giving gifts to the poor, and you will be clean all over. Here again, Jesus doubles down on "giving to the poor." 😄 I like the Amplified Bible translation: "But give that which is within as charity [that is, acts of mercy and compassion, not as a public display, but as an expression of your faithfulness to God], and then indeed all things...
