Warriors, as you continue walking the Beauty Way each day as the sun rises over the hill, commit your way to Creator Yahweh. He will make your right standing with him shine like the noonday sun! Others will see and know that you belong to your Great Chief and Captain.

It is a good thing to find a place of rest for your weary soul and to be still and rest in Creator Yahweh. Lean your whole weight into him.

In this way you will be able to cease from anger and forsake wrath. Do not allow yourself to fall into a pit of worry, because anger, bitterness and worry will only lead you to the dark side where those who do evil dwell. Those evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait and hope and look for Creator Yahweh will one day inherit the earth.

Warriors, do not fret over evil people who love walking in the darkness. Don’t be envious when you see these evil people prospering. For like the grass, they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away.

Hold on to your hope and continue walking the Beauty Way. Trust in Creator Yahweh with all your heart and continue to do good and you will dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself in your Great Chief and Captain and he will give you the desires of your heart.

What joy you will find, walking in the Blessing Way, when you realize the very things you love to do are exactly what Creator Yahweh wants you to do

Warriors, do you realize how valuable and precious is the love of our Great Chief and Captain? His love is dependable and steadfast and never wavering. The children of men take refuge beneath the shadow of his wings knowing he will provide every good thing for them. For even in sorrow and affliction, his love remains true. And even in the deepest pit he fills us with great hope for tomorrow.

Creator Yahweh is the fountain of life and it is in his light that we truly see light. This light is where hope is birthed. His loving-kindness covers all who know him, and his righteousness flows over the upright in heart. Don’t worry about those who do evil. They will one day fall and lie prostrate. They will be thrust down by the hand of Creator Yahweh and will never rise again.

But you, faithful warriors, will rise to sing the glory of our Great Chief and Captain. How can we do less than praise him now in the beauty of our dance?

Know this warriors, people who do evil do not fear our Great Chief and Captain.  They think of themselves so highly they don’t even know that what they are doing is wrong. Lies come out of their mouths and wisdom is far from them. Everything they do and think is tainted by darkness.

In spite of this, Creator Yahweh’s love reaches to the heavens, his faithfulness to the skies. His righteousness rises above us like mighty sacred mountains, and his justice streams down in waves of falling water. He preserves both man and beast. Both high and low find refuge in the shadow of Creator Yahweh’s wings.

Warriors, there is a time to fight! And there is a time to wait quietly for the salvation of our Great Chief and Captain. For no one is cast off by Creator Yahweh forever. Though he brings grief, he will show compassion, so great is his unfailing love. For he does not willingly bring affliction or grief to anyone.

Let us examine our ways and test them and let us return to Creator Yahweh. Let us lift up our hearts and our hands to Creator in heaven, and say, “We have sinned and rebelled.” Because of the blood of Jesus Yeshua he will forgive us. He will come near when we call upon him.

Warriors, are you having trouble trusting Creator Yahweh? I am a man who has seen affliction and have been driven away and made to walk in darkness rather than light. Indeed, it has sometimes seemed as if My Great Chief and Captain had turned his hand against me again and again, all day long.

But then I remember that he is good to those who wait hopefully and expectantly for him.  It is good to inquire of him according to the authority of his Sacred Writings.

Yes, we can trust him. Because of his great mercies we are not consumed, though we often deserve it. His compassions never fail. They are new with the rising of each sun. Great is the faithfulness of our Great Chief and Captain. I say to myself, “The Lord is my portion, therefore I will wait for him.”

Creator Yahweh is the Merciful One. Do not conform to the ways of the world and how the world thinks. Transform your thinking by the renewing of your mind, which comes from diving deep into the Sacred Writings.

When your soul is bowed down and continually in remembrance of your misery as an outcast, dive into the Sacred Writings and rediscover the hope and expectation that Creator Yahweh has given us. It is because of his great mercy and lovingkindness that we are not consumed. His compassion and mercy never fail.

Trust in him, warrior, and live every day as an act of worship.

In view of Creator Yahweh’s great mercies that are renewed every morning, or simply because of all that he has done for you, warriors, present your body, mind, spirit and soul to him. Honor him as your Great Chief and Captain! Give him control of your life every morning as the sun rises over the hill. Continue giving control to him as the sun walks its path across the heavens, being holy devoted and consecrated to please him.

Pleasing Creator Yahweh is not difficult warriors. Though his ways are much higher than ours, and his thoughts beyond our understanding, his commands are simple and he gives us Spirit power to follow them.  He does not weigh us down with many rules, but simply asks that we obey him by loving him first and then loving others.

Warriors, now we know that we are the children of Creator Yahweh. Hold this assurance in your heart.  The whole world is under the control of the evil one, that wicked trickster, but we are not under his control. Jesus Yeshua has given us understanding, so that we may know and perceive and come to know better and more clearly him who is true. And not only that, we are IN him who is true. He is the true Creator and Life Eternal.

Dear warriors, keep yourselves from anything and everything that would fill the place in your heart that belongs only to Creator Yahweh. Let no substitute take first place in your life. This is the way of walking in beauty.

Warriors, we need to pray for one another. If you see your fellow warrior committing an error, pray for him! All wrongdoing is sin, and we know that whoever is born of Creator Yahweh does not continue to walk the sin way. Yes. We make mistakes. Yes. Our hearts sometimes condemn us. But we come back to the Father, our great Chief and Captain, Creator Yahweh, and his love casts out all fear.

Anyone who continues to walk the sin way, day after day, mile after mile, is not born of Creator Yahweh, because we know that anyone who is born of Creator Yahweh does not continue to sin. The evil one cannot touch such a warrior because they are protected by Spirit power.
