August 8 water Can you raise your voice to the clouds and cover yourself with a flood of Water? Do you send the lightning bolts on their way? Do you have the wisdom to count the clouds and can you tip over the water jars of the heavens? Our Great Chief and Captain does all these things and holds your days and nights in his hands.

He knew your beginning before you ever came to be. He knows your ending in this place we call time. He has called you to be his child for eternity. Trust your Great Chief and Captain warrior. He will provide your deepest needs and fulfill your heart’s desires at just the right time.

August 7 2015 water Light the sage and come before Creator Yahweh with your requests. If you are walking in Holy Spirit power your requests will be in line with his desires for you. Keep on asking and you will receive. Keep on seeking and you will find. Keep on knocking with reverence and the door will be opened.

For everyone who keeps on asking from a heart cleansed through the blood of Jesus Yeshua will receive; and anyone who keeps on seeking diligently will find the object of their hearts desire; and whoever keeps on knocking at the door Creator Yahweh has set before them will find the door opened. Let all else fall away as you continue to walk in the way of Beauty.

August 6 2015 water Keep on the path of walking in Beauty! Strive above all to bring Creator’s beauty into this world through loving him and loving others. By doing this you will receive everything you need and much more. Do not even consider worrying about tomorrow, because you know today has enough troubles to rob your peace.

Creator Yahweh gave the horse his strength and clothes his neck with a flowing mane. Hawk takes flight by Creator Yahweh’s wisdom and spreads his wings toward the south. Eagle soars at his command. Focus on serving your Chief and Captain well, as a faithful warrior like hawk and eagle, soaring to the heights of his love.

August 5 copy Warriors, do not worry about how you will clothe yourself, or what you will eat or drink. Everyone who does not believe in Creator Yahweh worries about these things. But you know that Creator Yahweh clothes the flowers with glorious colors and paints the grass with magnificent shades of green. If he so clothes the grass of the field which today is alive and green and tomorrow is tossed into the furnace, then you know he will clothe you as well, you who are made in his image.

Creator Yahweh knows your needs. Trust him to take care of them at just the right time.

August 4 2015 Warriors, have you noticed the birds of the air? Eagle soars on the heights becoming one with the wind. The storms of life do not bother him. Osprey flies thousands of miles at just the right time, knowing full well his needs will be met. Hawk does not reap or sow or gather into barns; he hunts for food that he knows will be there. You, who are made in the image of Creator Yahweh, are more valuable than Eagle and Osprey and Hawk, though they are valuable as well.

Creator Yahweh is very much in touch with his creation. He will care for you. He watches when the doe bears her fawn. He counts the months till she gives birth. Her young thrive and grow strong in the wilds.

Creator Yahweh also sees your deepest need. He knows the empty spaces of your heart. So do everything you can to stop being anxious, because your worry cannot add one day to your life. Sing and dance your prayers to him and thank him that he cares for you.

August 3 water copy Know this, warriors, your heart will tell you where your treasure is. It is where your mind strays when you are all alone. Most often it will stray to the things you’ve seen with your eyes. The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eye is sound, your entire body will be full of light and your thoughts will turn to the way of Beauty.

But if your eye is unsound, your whole body will be full of darkness. Be careful that you do not allow that darkness to overtake your thoughts, for you cannot serve two masters. Whatever holds your thoughts is your master. They are either Spirit thoughts or thoughts that drag you back into darkness.

Walk in the way of Beauty, be careful what you let your eyes see, soak yourself in the Sacred Writings, and set your heart on Creator Yahweh. By doing these things you will become a light for others to follow.

August 2 2015 Warriors, do not put so much stock on earthly treasure. Do not fight over land or money or bloodlines. These things will all pass away. We have been bought with a price, the precious blood of Jesus Yeshua. We belong to him and are all part of one tribe. We share our uniqueness with our earthly tribe, and it is a gift to be used for Creator Yahweh’s glory, but our eternal tribe unites us as one. All else will pass away. But our position as children of Creator Yahweh will never pass away.

With these things in mind, store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy and where thieves do not break in and steal. Consider that the only thing you can take into eternity with you is your loved ones, your aunties and uncles and cousins. Store these treasures in the well of Creator Yahweh’s love, your greatest treasure of all. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

August 1 water Beat the drum and lift up praise to Creator Yahweh. He is our Rock and firm Strength. He teaches our hands to war and our fingers to fight all things that are evil. He is our Steadfast Love, our Fortress, our High Tower and our Deliver. Creator Yahweh is the Shield in Whom we trust and take refuge. He will subdue your enemies under you.

What wonder! What amazing love that this Great Chief and Captain takes notice of us. That he numbers the days of our lives and considers the hairs on our heads. We are but a breath or a shadow that quickly passes away, yet he calls us his children and gives unique gifts to us. Praise his holy name and dance before him with joy!

july 31 water Creator Yahweh’s thoughts hold all things together. They outnumber the grains of all the world’s sand. If he stopped thinking of you for one moment you would cease to exist. This is our Creator, the One who is aware of our every need. Can you not trust him warrior?

Ask him to search your heart and see if there is anything in it that needs cleansing. Yes, our hearts are deceitful and we seldom realize just how deceitful they are. But Creator Yahweh is greater than our hearts and he knows everything. He does not give us the judgment we deserve, but instead he cleanses us with his own blood. Through Holy Spirit power we can walk in the way of Beauty and he will lead us into everlasting love.

July 30 water Listen up warriors at the wonder of your birth! Creator Yahweh saw you when you were yet an unformed substance, hidden in the secret place. It was there in that region of darkness and mystery that he intricately embroidered the colors of your uniqueness. It was then He called you by name and in his book he wrote all the days of your life before even one took shape.

Before the world began you were in his mind. When he spoke the heavens into existence you were in his thoughts. He chose you to be his child, to be holy and blameless in his sight. Dance before him warrior and celebrate his delight in you. Then offer him the sacrifice or a broken and contrite heart.
