Taking Hold of What God Has Judged!

Following yesterday’s revelation that authority flows from settled identity, the Spirit brings us to a decisive truth: authority is revealed when what once intimidated you is brought under obedience.

God asked Moses, “What is that in your hand?” It was a staff — ordinary and familiar — until obedience exposed what fear had hidden. When the staff became a serpent, Moses fled. Yet God did not remove the threat; He issued a command that redefined dominion: “Pick it up.” When Moses obeyed, the serpent submitted and returned to a staff — no longer an object of fear, but an instrument of rule.

Suffering With Purpose: Trials That Shape Us

One of the hardest truths of our walk as believers is this: suffering is not a detour from God’s purpose — it is often the pathway through it. The new creation life does not exempt us from trials, but it does give us the resilience to endure them with hope. Our identity in Yeshua (Jesus) anchors us when circumstances shake us, reminding us that what we face does not define us and that nothing we endure is ever wasted in God’s hands.

When Identity Becomes Calling

If you’re just joining us on this journey, welcome. I’ve just completed a month-long series exploring our identity in the Messiah — who we are because of His finished work, His love, His calling, and His transformative grace. We discovered that identity is not something we earn; it is something we receive. It is not fragile; it is rooted. It is not changing; it is anchored in the eternal purposes of God. But now we turn a corner, because identity is never meant to be the destination. It is meant to be the foundation. Identity is not the finish line—it is the starting gate. And now that we know who we are in Messiah, we step into the next essential revelation: identity becomes calling.

Final Cry of Elul — Awake, Bride of Messiah

The month of Elul has been a journey of mercy, repentance, and preparation. From the first blast of the shofar to the last fading note, every day has called us to return, to awaken, to draw near. Elul began with the whisper of covenant love: “I am my Beloved’s, and my Beloved is mine.” It reminded us of Moses ascending the mountain for forty days, of God revealing Himself not as eager to destroy, but as merciful and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love. It pointed us to second chances, to restoration, to intimacy with the Bridegroom.

One thing I ask!

David begins Psalm 27 with a cry of courage: “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?” Yet courage in God is not an end in itself. It leads somewhere deeper. Having declared that God is his light, salvation, and strength, David then reveals the desire at the very core of his heart: one thing.

Elul — The bridal summons!

If Elul begins with intimacy, it culminates in readiness. The sound of the shofar throughout this month is not just a wake-up call — it is a bridal summons. It is the voice of the Bridegroom calling His Bride to prepare for the wedding feast of the Lamb. John’s vision in Revelation declares: “Let us rejoice and exult and give Him the glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His Bride has made herself ready” (Revelation 19:7).
