April 1 water Warrior, fix your thoughts on Creator Yahweh. He is completely holy and shines brighter than the Sacred Mountain. His great light brings life to those who live in deep darkness. He was faithful to the One who appointed him, even to death on a cross, and he was faithful as a Son to that One, The Most High God, the Great Spirit in whom we live and move and have our being.

Bear with me a little longer and I will show you that there is more to be said in Creator Yahweh’s behalf. Do not long for the night. Beware of turning to evil. It is our tendency to love darkness more than light. Do not allow yourself to be dragged down that road. You are of the light as Creator Yahweh is of the light. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. Do not love darkness more than light. No good thing dwells there in the land of death.

Hold on to your courage and the hope of which we boast. For he who said he would return, will return, at just the right time. Let him find you ready and waiting.

March 31 water small Taamtgi, warrior, “be still.” Creator Yahweh’s righteousness covers you. Rest and read the Sacred Writings until his whispered voice washes through your mind and sinks deep into your heart, birthing hope where despair has taken hold.

This battle you face is not an Indian battle, not one that was lost over a hundred years ago. This battle began back in Eden, back in the beginning of time when brother Adam and sister Eve made the first wrong choice. This battle has already been won, two thousand years ago when Creator Yahweh took on flesh and conquered sin and death.

Let peace fall over you as you enter a world where all is made right. Ride beside your Chief and Captain, both mounted on winged horses, flying on the wind. The battle cry is called, but your scabbard is empty. The Sword is in the Captain’s hand.

March 30 water small Eagle People, while still in your secret place on the Sacred Mountain (whether physical or in the Spirit) take a few moments to remember this one we call Creator Yahweh. Feel his sweet touch in the gentle breezes caressing each blade of grass. See him in the morning sun as it rises and covers the earth with its warmth and light. Hear Him in the cry of a newborn baby taking its first breath of life. From the rising of the sun to the setting of the same, acknowledge his glory.

Put your hope in Creator Yahweh, the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them—our Great Chief and Captain, who remains faithful forever. He upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. He calls you by your secret name. Listen carefully to His voice.

March 29 water small Warrior, remember those earlier days after you received the Light, when you stood your ground in a great contest in the face of suffering. You felt strong then, invincible. You knew Spirit power was enough. You could face any enemy, no matter how great or strong or how many arrows they threw at you. You joyfully accepted the loss of all your earthly treasures, because you knew the supreme joy of real spiritual treasure that far surpasses all else. This newfound joy carried you through every sorrow.

Remember that joy now while you are still in the secret place on the Sacred Mountain. Cling to it as a treasure you never want to lose. This will help you to stand strong when insults are hurled your way, and this joy will help equip you with all the things a true warrior needs to protect the ones he loves.

Do not throw away your confidence! What Creator Yahweh has promised he will do. Do not be of those who shrink back and are destroyed but instead join the joyful assembly of fellow warriors who believe and are saved. Yahweh. Yahweh. Yahweh. He is forever faithful

March 28 water small Every warrior has a creed he or she stands upon. There is something we are fighting for and something we are fighting against. Freedom is something worth fighting for. We can free our relatives and the ones we love from the power of the enemy. We fight for restoration of their souls. We fight against an enemy whose arrows pierce our hearts with doubt. This evil trickster has no power over us, unless we give it.

Now is the time to pick up your shield and protect yourself. This shield is the shield of faith that Creator Yahweh has given you.

Yes. It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the Living God, our Great Chief and Captain, but not if you have received his light and are holding onto his shield of faith. For once doing so, he is forever your Holy Father. Trust Him. He will complete the work he began in you and he will not be a moment too late.

March 27 water small As spiritual warriors we stand upon the creed of the cross, and we hold unswervingly to the hope we profess. For Creator Yahweh has given us many promises, and he is forever faithful, even when we are faithless.

Warriors, in these times, it is easy to see The Day fast approaching, a Day of raging fire that will consume the enemies of our Great Chief and Captain. So now, more than ever, we need to encourage our relatives and approve the good things we see in one another. While in your secret place, ask Creator Yahweh to show you your loved ones the way he sees them, for he sees the heart. Then you will be ready to fight for them the same way Creator Yahweh gave his life for you, laying down all to overcome the evil one. This takes great faith, but remember, your faith is in his mighty hand.

March 26 water small Remember warrior that faith is the tool that no hand, but Creator Yahweh’s can hold for long. Lay your tiny faith in his mighty hand and watch as he builds something strong, useful and beautiful.

Enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus Yeshua. Climb the Sacred Mountain, whether in body or in mind. Cleanse yourself with the water of Holy Spirit and with the smoke of sweet burning sage. Draw near to Creator Yahweh with a sincere heart and with full assurance of faith.

He will provide this faith for you, just keep turning to him in each and every moment and circumstance. Let him take your heart and soften it until it can be remolded into a warrior’s heart. This is still a time for silence, as he remolds you. Wait until you hear his words, “It is finished.”

March 25 water small Warriors, there is power in silence. When you are in your secret place (as we talked about yesterday), let silence stretch long until you center and once again regain your foundation. This is the power of rebuilding, with no tool in hand, but with fingers spread and palms open, as the rubble falls away at Creator Yahweh’s command. Then you will see a clear foundation on which to build.

This foundation is the heart and center of who you are. This is the foundation that cannot be shaken. This is the foundation built on Creator Yahweh’s sacrifice and by which we are being made holy. When all else that can be shaken is shaken, Christ remains.

Think on this when you are in your secret place. Let your heart be encouraged by the work that has already been done for you, spoken when the worlds were set into place by Creator Yahweh’s commands. Catch this vision before you catch any other. There is power in silence as you wait for Creator Yahweh. His silence may be long, but it is never late.

March 24 water small Warriors, be careful to not steal tomorrow from the hands of Creator Yahweh. Surely you have learned by now that he is never late. Every great warrior needs time to prepare themselves for battle. Are your hands prepared for war? Is your heart?

Let us prepare our hearts first. It is good to take time for a vision quest, finding a place to be alone with Creator Yahweh, somewhere close to the earth and free of human noise and interference. Perhaps you have a sacred mountain nearby where you can do this, but if it is impossible for you to get to such a place, any place is sacred if Creator Yahweh is invited into it. We live and move and have our being in him. The place is simply for us to become aware of his presence.

For the next few days I will share with you things you can do while upon the mountain (whether that mountain is a quiet place in your home or a lofty peak) to prepare your heart for war. Yes. We are in a war, where the stakes are life and death. Today it is enough for you to think about where your special place will be and to remember that your life is in the hands of our Great Chief and Captain who also holds the future.

Creator Yahweh is not silent as some count as silence. His silence is the power of stillness. Wait for him. His timing is always perfect.

March 23 water small Evil people will come against you, warriors, but it is not the person who is truly your enemy, it is the evil one, that evil trickster, in the spiritual realm that is out to get you. He has no power over you, except that Creator Yahweh allows. So, lift your petition to your Great Chief and Captain! Call out to him expectantly all the day long. Remember his great mercy and love that never fail. They are from days of old and are everlasting.

He knew you when you walked in rebellious ways, yet he called you to be one of his own. All the ways of Creator Yahweh are loving and faithful toward those who keep his covenant and his testimonies. For his name’s sake, he will pardon your iniquity and guilt, even though they are very great. Put your hope in him and he will guard your life and rescue you. All his paths are mercy and steadfast love.
