YOU MUST HAVE FAITH!!

YAHUSHUA HA MASHIACH'S (JESUS CHRIST'S) MESSAGE TO THE WORLD.

FIRST SENT OUT IN 2006. EXCERPT 22


All who worship Yahweh, My Father, the Ruach Ha Kodesh, and Me, Yahushua; MUST HAVE FAITH, as it is written in My Holy Word:

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to [Yahweh] God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6.

This means that all those who come to Us, the Elohim (God) of heaven and earth, must seek Us earnestly. They must be convinced and truly believe that: We exist, and that We are able to reward them, as well as do for them whatever they ask or require.

Faith is not a physical, tangible or material thing, which can be seen and touched like things in the natural world. However, it is very real in the spiritual realm. Faith is even more real than that which can be seen with the naked eye! That is the reason it is important to have faith. The definition of the type of faith, which is imperative in those who follow and accept Me, Yahushua, as Saviour, is described in Hebrews 11: 1:

1Now “faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen”. 2For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of [Yahweh] God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

An example of faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen; can be described in this way. You have just received very bad news from your doctor that you are dying from a very bad and progressive form of cancer, which will take your life within a month. It is real and has taken the lives of many of your family members. It is also a fact that you have the same deadly strain of cancer. The question is: Whom will you believe? Will you believe the doctor, or Will you believe through faith that I, Yahushua Ha Mashiach, can heal you completely through the power of the Ruach Ha Kodesh (the Holy Spirit)?

Now in your case, you choose to believe that I can heal you, and so you study My Word in the Holy Scriptures, pray to Yahweh, the Father, in My Name and ask for your healing. In faith you believe that I have done what you have asked Me to do. You may also choose to go to My ministers who are blessed with the gift of healing and have them pray for you, as you are admonished to do in James 5: 14-16:

14“Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of [Yahushua] the Lord: 15And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and [Yahushua] the Lord shall raise him up”; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. 16Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Now because you have placed your trust and confidence in Me, Yahushua, and believed that what you have asked will be granted; your prayer is answered. Thus you are miraculously healed of that deadly disease from which many of your relatives died. After your healing, which is the reward for your faith, you return to your doctor to show him the miracle in your life and to be examined by him to confirm the healing. He looks at you in amazement, because instead of a picture of death before him, he sees a picture of radiant life and health! He then tests and examines you and in even greater amazement, tells you that there is no cancer in your body.

The reason for your miraculous healing has been your strong faith. That then is faith in action on your part, because instead of believing the report of the doctor, you believed My Word instead, and claimed your healing. This is because you believe that by My stripes you were healed (Isaiah 53: 4, 5). This then IS FAITH IN ACTION:
. . .
the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1.

That is why in Matthew 17:20, it is written:

For verily I say unto you, “If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you”.

Many of those who worshipped Us, their Elohim (the God of Israel) in biblical times, were great men of faith. Examples of some of those who demonstrated great faith are recorded in Hebrews Chapter 11. Among them were:

Abel, of whom it is recorded:

By faith Abel offered unto [Yahweh] God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. Hebrews 11:4.

Noah, of whom it says:

By faith Noah, being warned of [Yahweh] God of things not seen as yet, “moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house”; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith. Hebrews 11:7.

Abraham and Sarah (Sara) his wife, of whom it is written:

8“By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. 9By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: 10For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is [Yahweh] God”. 11“Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised”. 12Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable. Hebrews 11:8-12.

These patriots of old, held onto their faith because their vision was not upon this world, which is temporal but upon the heavenly country, which is eternal. Thus it is recorded:

13“These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.” 14For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. 15And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. 16“But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore [Yahushua] God is not ashamed to be called their [Elohim] God: for he hath prepared for them a city”. Hebrews 11: 13-16.

Faith has not been limited to the patriots of old, but to all those who sincerely love and worship Us, the Elohim (God) of heaven and earth: Yahweh, the Father, the Ruach Ha Kodesh, and I, Yahushua Ha Mashiach. For this reason vast numbers who believe in Me, Yahushua, have been martyred over the past two thousand years. They have chosen martyrdom because they, like the patriots of old:

looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is [Elohim] God. Hebrews 11: 10.

You too need to have such a faith that in spite of whatever you are facing, or will face; you will remain firm to the end. Likewise, by that same faith, you will believe and call:

those things which be not as though they were. Romans 4: 17.

THE DANGER OF DECEPTION!!

The greatest danger that has faced the human race since Satan became the god of this world (1 Corinthians 3:4), and brought sin into the world, is DECEPTION. It was through his deception that sin came into the world and brought all its miseries, including death. So great was Satan’s deception, that it caused Me, Yahweh, the Creator of the world and all flesh, to leave My throne in Heaven to come to Planet Earth, and give My life as a ransom for the human race; who were sold under sin (John 1: 1-14; 1 Timothy 2:6).

Due to the great danger of deception, while I lived upon earth, I told My disciples:

Take heed that no man deceive you. Matthew 2:4.

And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. Matthew 24:11.

And in 1 John 4:1:

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of [Yahweh] God: because “many false prophets are gone out into the world”.

Satan’s greatest weapon is still DECEPTION, which he uses very effectively. This is the reason he has had, and still has, the majority of the human race deceived. Hence the reason for the millions of counterfeit gods, behind whom he hides and receives worship for himself. Likewise, he uses everything else to deceive the nations, including: Atheism, Secularism, Paganism and Satanism. Satan deceives as many as he can, because his one intension is to have as many as possible who will suffer the torments of Hell, when they die. Most of all he wants them to share his fate with him in the Lake of fire and brimstone in the final Judgment ahead of this world (Matthew 25: 41, 46; Luke 16: 19-31; Revelation 20: 7-15).

In addition to his terrible deception, Satan uses vast numbers of those whom he deceives, to persecute and kill as many of My followers as possible. He does this in his attempt to get them to give up their faith and belief in Me, Yahushua. Likewise, he does it to intimidate and discourage others from following Me, because he knows the great and wonderful things which I have waiting for them in Heaven, My throne and dwelling place. Satan, the master Deceiver, does these things to mankind because before his rebellion and fall, he was an archangel in the Heaven of heavens. Thus, he is full of hate and envy, and will stop at nothing to secure the peoples of the world for himself. It is for this very reason, you are told in 2 Corinthians 4:3, 4:

But if our gospel be hid, “it is hid to them that are lost: In whom [Satan] the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of [Ha Mashiach] Christ, who is the image of [Yahweh] God, should shine unto them”.

I, Yahushua Ha Mashiach, your Adonai (Lord), admonish you therefore, to know for certain Whom, and What you Believe!! Therefore, examine thoroughly and prove and ensure that what you believe is GENUINE and that IT IS NOT COUNTERFEIT!! This is especially so when it comes to your beliefs in the GOD YOU SERVE, OR DO NOT SERVE!! Know for sure that YOUR ETERNAL FUTURE LIES IN WHAT YOU BELIEVE!! Thus, if you CHOOSE TO SERVE AND WORSHIP THE COUNTERFEIT, your disappointment will be a BITTER ONE AND AN ETERNAL ONE, from which there will be NO ESCAPE!! Therefore, your ONLY HOPE OF ESCAPE IS TO ACCEPT ME, YAHUSHUA, AS YOUR SAVIOUR, while you have the opportunity to do so, and have the legal right to be in this world.

Satan’s one intension is to DESTROY YOU!! Therefore, it is up to you to CHOOSE WISELY AND INTELLIGENTLY, WHOM YOU WILL SERVE AS YOUR GOD. That is why you are told:

Be not deceived; [Yahweh] God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. Galatians 6:7.

And:

Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? Romans 6:16.

As Your Creator, Adonai and Saviour, I, Yahushua Ha Mashiach, admonish you to worship Us, the ONLY TRUE ELOHIM: Yahweh, the Father, The Ruach Ha Kodesh and I, Yahushua, Who willingly died for you (Mark 10:45).

ALL OTHER GODS ARE COUNTERFEITS, BEHIND WHOM SATAN, YOUR ADVERSARY, HIDES!! SO TAKE HEED!! I HAVE TOLD YOU AND YOU ARE NO LONGER IN IGNORANCE!!
