INTRODUCTION

Walking in the Spirit is needed for the feeble, the fearful, those lacking vision or direction. Most certainly they are needed for those who want to be courageous, victorious, and actually accomplishing something with their life.

Living in today’s world, where every foundation that can be shaken is being shaken, as believers, we need the gifts and the fruit of the Holy Spirit in our life. Without them, we too will perish and fall along the way.

Through the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, the Lord’s spiritual gifts can be imparted to us. Through the daily work of the Holy Spirit, His fruit can grow within us.

“There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.” 1 Corinthians 12:4-11, NKJV

Gal 5:22-24

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.” Galatians 5:22-24, NASU

Whether you have started walking with the Holy Spirit just recently, or have for several decades, as I have, we need a daily refreshing and recharging that the Lord provides for us, through the action of His Holy Spirit, working in and through us.

As you read these life stories, inspiring lessons, and hope-filled messages of love and faith that I share with you, may your walk in the Spirit grow and flourish to be an overcomer in the world.
As you read these life stories, inspiring lessons, and hope-filled messages of love and faith that I share with you, may your walk in the Spirit grow and flourish to be an overcomer in the world.

DEDICATION

To all those who desire to know the Holy Spirit, by learning of His ways, growing in the fruit of the Holy Spirit, and experiencing His gifts that enable us to be overcomers and light in a dark world – to these I dedicate this book.

I pray that you will be encouraged in your walk, and faithful to the call on your life that our Lord Jesus has given for you to do.

We need each other. We need His fruit. We need His gifts. May each one in the Body of Christ know their part and fill it.

Ahava and shalom (love and peace),

Commitment - To Do or Not To Do - Steve Martin Published Aug. 18, 2019

Commitment - To Do or Not To Do

Steve Martin

Published Aug. 18, 2019

Buy here: Commitment - To Do or Not To Do

Paperback: $14.95

A few months ago I sensed the Lord wanted me to write a book on being committed, day in and day out. Not just about some fad that comes and goes, as they do each decade, or even monthly, but of the eternal perspective He has, and gives to us. 

People need something to stand on, that doesn’t shift with every wind and movement that comes along. They need solid ground, especially when their world begins to shake. There is no other on which to stand, on which to build one’s life, than on the Word of God, the Torah, the Bible. The very one Who has created everything certainly knows what is needed for each of us to achieve fulfillment, purpose, and the destiny He has given in His ultimate realm of salvation, redemption, and life with Him, for us and the nations. 

When the Holy Spirit gave me the thought to search for all the messages I had thus far written, now going beyond 470 in these last 9 years, that had the word “commit” or “commitment” in them, I was amazed when over 70 appeared on the list. Being an accountant by trade, that is 15%. Not an insignificant number. Thus those compiled messages in this book will reveal at least one thing – that our Lord is faithful and committed, and as we choose to follow Him, we too will be as He is.

Choose this day to seek Him, know Him, and be committed above all to Him. Then you too will discover that His Word is the final word.

All of us need more courage. We are called by God to be on a specific mission, to carry out His command to take the Gospel to all the nations. Some will do it while communicating in friendship among their neighbors. Others will be a light in the work office, being there to speak hope and encouragement to the other staff members who may be struggling to make ends meet or who need a word of truth and love in helping the difficult child at home.

Still, others will hear the call to join a mission organization, or travel through contacts in their church congregation, to bring the light of the Gospel to the distant land.

But more likely our need for courage proves itself most in the ongoing struggle we face daily as we stand strong against the winds of change, the forces arrayed against believers, who are committed to adhering yet to the principles and foundational stones found in the eternal Word of God. Even as the Bible itself is mocked, lied about, and spoken as irrelevant to this day and age, we who have been taught the truth must be the ones to stand strong upon it.

DEDICATION

  

I dedicate this book to the next generation of those who have believed on the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation and have been shown mercy and grace.

My heart and prayer are for our sons and daughters to have a life-changing experience of who the Lord is, who He wants them to be, and what they can do to impact this world with the spiritual gifts and calling that rests on them.

The world is awaiting how they will impact it with the truth of the Gospel. If ever we needed them, it is now.

INTRODUCTION

Be encouraged in your daily walk with God, for when it is all said and done, our God wins!

God the Father, Jesus Christ His Son, and God the Holy Spirit – the Three in One – rule from their heavenly throne. Together they are daily involved in the lives of men, women, and children in all the nations. The establishment of their kingdom here on earth is taking place. And one day Jesus, Yeshua HaMashiach, will set up His earthly throne in Jerusalem, Israel, the place where He left from in 33 AD, promising to return to that same place.

Knowing the last chapter recorded at the end of the Book, the Word of God, the Bible, as revealed to John the Apostle, we know that from the beginning in Genesis, to that ending chapter in Revelation, the Lord has been preparing His people and bringing about His plans and purposes.

Both believing Jews and Gentiles are seeing His work and getting involved.

These messages are to encourage you, including among them I trust, in your walk with the Living God of Israel.

Ahava and shalom,

"Weep in Intercession" Now Think On This by Steve Martin

Weep in Intercession

“Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.” Romans 12:15, Complete Jewish Bible

In the last two days, when I sat down in my prayer chair for my early morning time with the Lord, this sense of weeping came over me. It began as a swelling up in my chest, and then it came forth through my eyes, as the Holy Spirit moved upon me.

I wasn’t sure why He was sharing this experience with me, so I prayed in tongues and let Him use my intercession for His purposes. Most often we can choose to freely give of ourselves as His channel of love and act out of obedience for His plans. The knowing may not be made fully aware, but the doing certainly should.

Maybe this was for our friends in Israel, as He watches over His returning people coming from all the nations where they had been dispersed during the centuries. He clearly sees them, making provision from His holy throne from which He broadcasts His love, through those who have accepted His call to support and provide the means of doing so, both in the natural and the spiritual.

Maybe this intercession weeping was for the one on the dark, secluded street last night, left out of life, clinging to any hope available. May they find the joy that is in You, Jesus, the Savior of the world. You died so that all could live who seek and find You.

It could have been for the nation of Hong Kong, as the people have been crying out publicly for weeks, desiring for the freedom in their country that He alone can truly bring. He may have wanted me to join with them in their longing for that truth.

We may not understand why He leads us in this form of intercession, but we must be open vessels for those times He leads us in the manner.

In Isaiah 30:18-22, the prophet spoke forth this to the people, “Therefore the Lord longs to be gracious to you, and therefore He waits on high to have compassion on you. For the Lord is a God of justice; how blessed are all those who long for Him.

 O people in Zion, inhabitant in Jerusalem, you will weep no longer. He will surely be gracious to you at the sound of your cry; when He hears it, He will answer you. Although the Lord has given you bread of privation and water of oppression, He, your Teacher will no longer hide Himself, but your eyes will behold your Teacher.

Your ears will hear a word behind you, " This is the way, walk in it," whenever you turn to the right or to the left. And you will defile your graven images overlaid with silver, and your molten images plated with gold. You will scatter them as an impure thing, and say to them, " Be gone!" (NASU)

There is an eternal longing in the Father’s heart, expressed through His Only Begotten Son Jesus (Yeshua) and His Holy Spirit, the Comforter sent to earth to bring forth His purposes in love.

We are called to be intercessors – to pray, to fast, to weep for the answers and solutions needing to come, which will bring healing, restoration, life fulfillment, and redemption offered only through His shed blood on the cross. As His Spirit directs us, we must follow. He is our only hope.

We read of the time Yeshua wept when his friend Lazarus had died and was buried. His emotions as He walked among us those 33 years displayed the Father’s loving heart.

“When Jesus saw her sobbing and the Jews with her sobbing, a deep anger welled up within him.  He said, "Where did you put him?" "Master, come and see," they said. Now Jesus wept. The Jews said, "Look how deeply he loved him." John 11:33-36 (THE MESSAGE)

There will be plenty of opportunities we will have to join with the Father in interceding for our families, our friends, the nations around the planet. As we give ourselves to Him, He will lead us, direct our steps, and allow us to experience what is on His heart.

He knows what the end results will bring, that of victory and rejoicing. But the path we walk on to get there will take us through much tribulation and warfare. We must present ourselves as ones to share in this.

Now think on this and see what good things the Lord has in store for you and those around you.

Ahava and shalom,
