When despair is your sister and sadness your brother, when hopeless are the parents who bore you. When they scream in your ears and taunt you with jibes, some honest and some untrue, but none with the scent of life; remember warrior, that to the faithful, Creator Yahweh reveals himself as faithful and to the blameless he shows himself as blameless.

We cannot be blameless in our own strength or effort, but Jesus Yeshua offers us the free gift of purity by giving his life in our place. It is his righteousness that protects us, his faithfulness that sustains us. At just the right time, Creator Yahweh will put wings on your feet and you will run through a troop. With your God you will leap over walls that now seem insurmountable.

Warriors! Be sure to number your days rightly and you will gain a heart of wisdom, for our days are like grass, springing up in the morning when the sun pours life into us, but by evening we are dry and withered. What can we give to Creator Yahweh? What can we do that will make a difference to him? A thousand years in his sight are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night. With one sweep of his mighty hand our lives are wiped away and returned to dust

Yet he withholds that sweeping hand for a season and calls us by name and separates us to be his children forever; children born not of human desire but born of Spirit and water. He provides himself as our dwelling place and shelters us beneath his great wings. Before the mountains were born, he was there. Before he called forth the earth and the world, he was there. From everlasting to everlasting Creator Yahweh is God.

Warrior, when one enemy becomes two and two becomes twenty and help is still far away, lost in a place where you cannot touch her, wait for a double portion of Creator’s Spirit. Bow your face to the ground and cover yourself with dust. Let your body cleave to the ground as one who belongs to it. For Creator Yahweh’s sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. But do not let despair become your sister.

Creator Yahweh lives and rules in all dimensions and his Holy Spirit is able to touch and know every creature at each and every moment. Spirit is not limited to time and space. His thoughts about you outnumber the grains of the sand. He alone knows your frame. Before you utter one word, He knows it completely. How can you not trust him?

Here is a good way of walking in beauty, trust in Creator Yahweh without wavering. Count on his righteousness to save you and know that it is not your mighty arm that will rescue you; it is his great Sword that will bring shouts of victory. Let him examine your heart and mind. Make sure you do not sit with those who are false, and do not fellowship with pretenders. Hate the company of evildoers and do not sit long hours with the wicked or enjoy their ways.

Love the Sacred Writings and spend much time there in the presence of Creator Yahweh in the place where his glory dwells. Walk the way of integrity through Spirit Power for he has redeemed and restored you and has been merciful and gracious to you.

Does it seem as if Creator Yahweh has hidden his face? Are you afraid he has forgotten your affliction and the taunts of those who oppress you?

Trust Creator Yahweh even in this. Do not turn from following the good way even when deep darkness covers the path. Do not forget the name of Creator Yahweh or that it is his hands that stretched out the heavens. He knows the secrets of the heart. Trust in the work he has done in the past and know that he will do it again. We will tread upon the enemy who rises up against us. Do not trust in bow or spear, they will not save you. Trust only in the strength and faithfulness of Creator Yahweh.

Come and see the works of Creator Yahweh! He lifts his voice and the earth melts. He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth; he breaks the bow and shatters the spear, he burns the shields with fire.

There is a river, flowing freely forever, whose streams make glad the city of Creator Yahweh. This is the holy place for which our hearts long. Jesus Yeshua is in the midst of her and she will not be moved. The Great Chief of all the Hosts is with us! He is our Refuge, our Fortress, and our High Tower.

This is the one we serve! Our Great Chief and Captain! Be still before him and watch. He knows what he is doing and will accomplish all that is in his plan.

Creator Yahweh is our refuge and strength, an ever present help in trouble. Why do you fear, warrior? When trouble is near, Creator Yahweh is even nearer. If the earth gives way beneath your feet, he is still there. When the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, he is still there. When the waves roar and foam, and the mountains quake with their surging, Creator Yahweh is still there. He will catch you upon his wings and carry you to safety.

The wind howls, the earth rumbles, the shout of a horde of warriors rings out across the land! We hold our hands over our ears because of the noise of it, but Creator Yahweh is still there. Nations are in uproar! Kingdoms fall. Creator Yahweh is still there, carrying you upon his great wings.

Warrior, are you still at rest in Creator Yahweh, hidden in the shelter of his tent? Do you realize that this rest is not born of open fields and wind swept skies but is born of conflict? Yes. The very thing that you looked at as bad has produced this fruit of peace. This peace is not like the calm before a storm so do not fear. This peace bears the quietness and freshness that follows the storm.

While you are here in this place of rest, learn the ways of Creator Yahweh and then when you rise to walk again, your feet will walk on straight paths. Even when others do not understand the way you travel, or when they bring false accusations against you, or even when some breathe violence against you, you need not fear. Wait for Creator Yahweh. He will strengthen your heart and give you courage, and at just the right time he will get your feet moving again.

Creator Yahweh is a shelter from the storm. He is a shade from the heat. He is a river that will never run dry. Run to him! And always find him near. He is the River flowing from the throne of God, whose streams make glad the City of Creator Yahweh, the Place where the Most High dwells.

The deep waters of Creator Yahweh’s Spirit are always accessible, because they are always flowing. But first, you must leave the shore behind, and tread ankle deep, then knee deep. Do not look back! Tread on until the river takes you away. Do not be afraid, warriors, plunge beneath these waters. Though shocking and cold at first, they will become as a warm fathomless sea. The River of Creator Yahweh is your source of life-giving renewal.

Has the way grown dark before you warriors? Do you feel yourself sinking into depression? Are the present circumstances that Creator Yahweh has allowed in your life dropping you into despair? Then it is time to stop, cease all work and be still.

Let Creator Yahweh be your refuge and stronghold of your life. Seek his face and inquire of him and do not move until he gives you direction. Rest in the arms of Creator Yahweh. It is a time to draw strength from a strong loved one and trust completely in another’s strength. Wait for Yeshua and he will fill your heart with courage.
