July 19 Hold fast warriors! Follow the teachings of Creator Yahweh found in the Sacred Writings. There is a good pattern here that is worth following. They will lead you to the Sacred Mountain, the Mountain of Vision Quests where you will find direction for what lies ahead. Guard the truth that you find there. It has been entrusted to you as a precious treasure. You can do this by the power of the Spirit who makes his home in you.

Do not worry about others who refuse to follow. Pray that Creator Yahweh will grant them the same great mercy and kindness that he has granted you, that he will breathe on them his breath of fresh air so that they too will climb the Sacred Mountain and find life for their souls.

July 18 Is the journey different than what you first thought warrior? Is the path strewn with broken promises and unmet expectations? Be careful that you do not fall under the lie that Creator Yahweh has let you down. If he is the One who gave you the promise then it will be fulfilled, and not a day too late.

It is better to put your faith in the One who gave the promise than it is to believe in the promise itself. Sometimes our enemy, the trickster, has fooled us into thinking a promise has been given when in truth we have been trusting in the fulfillment of our own desires. Trust in Creator Yahweh. He knows the deepest desires of your heart better than you do, and he is able to guard and keep that which has been entrusted to you from the beginning.

July 17 2015 water Creator Yahweh established the earth so that it cannot be moved. He is mightier than the mighty breakers and waves of the sea. He is more majestic than the mighty trees that reach toward heaven to praise his name. His works are marvelous among the nations. This Beautiful One will one day rule the people righteously and with justice, and He will judge the motives of our hearts with complete faithfulness and truth.

Is this not One we can trust with our lives? Is this not One we can depend on to lead us rightly? This is our great Captain and Chief! We may not know where we are headed or what the outcome will be; it is simply enough to know that we walk this path with Creator Yahweh.

July 16 water Hang on warriors! Be vigilant and cautious at all times. Do not be surprised at the pain and suffering you are going through, Creator Yahweh said we would have trouble in this world. But he also said that he has overcome the world. Commit yourself to your faithful Creator and continue to do good.

Our enemy prowls the dark places like a roaring lion, seeking someone to seize upon and devour. Withstand him. Stand firm in your faith against his attack. Remain rooted, established, strong, immovable and determined. You cannot do this on your own strength, but you can do it all through Spirit power.

But, after you have suffered a little while Creator Yahweh, the God of all grace, who has called you to his own eternal glory in Jesus Yeshua, will himself restore you, making you strong firm and steadfast! But know this warriors, this “little while” is in Creator Yahweh’s counting of time, not ours.

He will not close his ears though it may sometimes seem as if he has covered himself with a dark cloud that no prayer will penetrate.

Let us send up prayers on eagle wings. They will be heard…and not a moment too late, even though sometimes it seems as if all is lost. Let us ask Creator Yahweh to turn us and restore us to himself. He will renew our days as of old.

July 12 Take note warriors, nations are racing toward destruction, and men and women are running toward the great abyss. Repentance is the only way out of this dark path. Let us examine our hearts and test them, and let us return to Creator Yahweh with our whole hearts.

Stand at the crossroads and look! Test the ancient paths and see, ask where the Beauty Way is and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls.

Let repentance rule in the hearts of our people as we beat the drum and lift up our hands to Creator Yahweh. Let our tears never cease in the watches of the night for the lives of our children. Do not lose hope warriors! Pour out your hearts to Creator Yahweh. He will not allow us to be cast off forever.

July 11 water Be careful warriors that no one deceives you and leads you into error, for it is possible to be led astray from walking in Beauty. Stand firm in your faith, but make sure your faith is based on real evidence provided in the Sacred Writings. By doing this you will be able to keep your heart free from trouble.

Yes. We have seen wars and heard rumors of war. We have seen nation rise against nation, and we have wept over earthquakes and famines throughout the world. Our own people have been mistreated and forgotten, and promises have been trampled underfoot. As bad as these things are, they are just the beginning of much worse to come.

Still, in such times as these, Creator Yahweh has told us to not let our hearts be troubled or frightened. He is still in control. Take courage warriors, we are like polished arrows kept in Creator Yahweh’s quiver for just such a time as this.

July 10 water Sing a new song to Creator Yahweh. Dance with all your might! The starry host rejoices and the earth is glad. The sea and all that is in it roars with the majesty of our Great Chief and Captain. Singing fields of wild grain lift their voice in praise of Creator. The forest is alive with the splendor of his Name. Eagles soar at the sound of his voice.

How can we do less than all of creation?

Let us praise his Holy Name. Let us bring glory and honor to him through loving each other and lifting up sweet praise to him on the drum and flute. Let us honor him with our obedience. Let us bring a favorable offering of tobacco or sage and come before him with trembling and reverence. Let our lives show forth his salvation day after day. Yahweh. Yahweh. Yahweh. Let us never forget this Beautiful One.
