October 13

October 13 water copy Warriors our Great Chief and Captain is God and not a man. He is a Spiritual Being, even The Great Spirit whom we have long known. He is Creator Yahweh, the Holy One among us. He roars like a mighty lion and when he roars, his children will come trembling and eagerly from the west. They will come trembling like birds from the east, like doves from the north. With loving kindness he will settle us in our homes.

Therefore, let us return to Creator Yahweh, the Lord our God. Let us hold fast to love and mercy. Let us cling to righteousness and justice, and let us wait expectantly for our Great Chief and Captain. It is he who heals us and not another. Let us continue walking the Beauty Way with a heart of thankfulness and yearning. He is close, warriors, let us reach out to him.

October 12

October 12 water Warriors, it is time to break up the barren ground! Let us sow for ourselves righteousness that comes through the blood of Jesus Yeshua. Then we will reap the fruit of unfailing love. It is time to seek Creator Yahweh. He has showered us with his righteousness and rained his salvation upon us.

In the past we have eaten the fruit of deception and lies. Because we trusted in our own strength and in the strength of our many warriors, the roar of battle rose against our people.

The time for healing has come. Creator Yahweh has led us with chords of human kindness and with ties of love. He rises to show compassion on us and desires to lift the yoke of bondage from our necks. There is healing in his mighty wings. Let us respond by sowing compassion.

October 10

October 10 water Warriors, I pray that Creator Yahweh will answer you in the day of trouble! May our Great Chief and Captain set you in a spacious place and defend you from all your enemies. May he send you help from the Sacred Mountain and support you in your work as you serve him. May he refresh and strengthen you in Spirit power. May he grant you according to your heart’s desire.

The day will come, warriors, when we will shout in triumph at the victory of our Great Chief and Captain and in that day we will lift up banners in the name of Creator Yahweh.

Some boast in chariots and some trust in their horses, but we trust in the name of Creator Yahweh. Let your voice shout in praise and your feet dance in a song of celebration. Yahweh. Yahweh. Yahweh. He is always faithful and true.

October 11

October 11 water small The Heavens declare the glory of Creator Yahweh; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech. There is no tongue or language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes into all the earth. Have you not heard this voice, warriors? The shout is loud and strong!

The heavens also reveal the wrath of our Great Chief and Captain poured out against all the godlessness and wickedness of people who repress and hinder the truth. For that which is known about Creator Yahweh is evident and made plain in their inner consciousness. Creator Yahweh has made it plain to them. Since the creation of the world Creator Yahweh’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen by everyone.

Open your eyes, warriors, and see the One who called you by name. Let the mighty wind of his Spirit and the power of his compassion restore you from deep within.

October 9

October 9 water Sometimes, warriors, Creator Yahweh seems very far away. We cry out in the daytime, yet he answers not and seems to have forsaken us. We groan throughout the night yet he remains silent. It is times like these we must remember that he is holy and faithful and just. We must look beyond our circumstances and see him high and lifted up in the Holy Place beyond the Sacred Mountain.

We must also look to our ancestors and remember that they trusted in our Great Chief and Captain. They were confident even in the silent times while walking the Sorrow Way. Creator Yahweh delivered them. They cried out and were delivered and were not ashamed or disappointed. Sometimes their hope was realized in this life, but often it came when they crossed over, freed from the chains that held them. And they received honor because of their steadfastness.

Keep calling out, fellow warriors, and let his Spirit comfort you at just the right time.

October 7

October 7water Warriors, we are called to warfare, but do not mistake your enemy! We do not fight against flesh and blood. Be careful to not strike out against your brothers and sisters. Our fight is against the powers and master spirits who rule this present darkness. We war against the spirit forces of wickedness in the spirit realm. This kind of war requires the full armor of Creator Yahweh, so that on the dangerous day of evil we will be able to stand.

Stand, therefore, as bold warriors, and do not allow your minds to become quickly unsettled or disturbed or alarmed. Let no one deceive or beguile you in any way. For there will come a great falling away of those who have professed to follow Creator Yahweh. Stand firm and do not let yourselves be led astray. Keep your spiritual fervor, serving your Great Chief and Captain and encourage one another as you see the day approaching.

When he speaks to you in dreams and visions of the night, answer him. When you hear his voice saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” obey him. He is worthy of your trust.

Creator Yahweh has created you unique and gifted you with unique gifts. Make it your aim to discover those gifts and use them for his glory! And whatever you do, do it in love, never forgetting to love your Great Chief and Captain and to love others. These are his two great commands.

October 5

October 5 water I tell you a great mystery, warriors, we shall not all fall asleep in death. We shall be transformed! In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye! The perishable part of us will put on the imperishable and the mortal part of us shall put on immortality. And when we experience this freedom from death, we will realize the fulfillment of the promise that death is swallowed up forever in victory.

On that day Creator Yahweh will destroy the covering of mourning that has been cast over our people. He will swallow up death and wipe away tears from our faces. On that day we will say, “Behold our Great Chief and Captain upon Whom we have waited and hoped, that He might save us! This is Creator Yahweh. We have waited for Him and we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.”

This is a great promise, warriors, for all who put their trust and hope in Creator Yahweh. Stand strong! Do not waiver from walking in Beauty.
