Sitting At The Feet Of Our Master Yeshua
 
 
Victory Comes From Dwelling In His Presense
 
 
Psa 91:1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
Psa 91:2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
 
Vs 1 Dwelleth
 
 
 H3427
ישׁב
yâshab
BDB Definition:(Brown,Driver Briggs hebrew def)
1) to dwell, remain, sit, abide

The only place of safety is in His Presence daily.  We are to remain in His presence 24/7.  His Presence is our city of refuge, our Hiding Place.  We are to LIVE In His Presense because that is where our strength comes from.
 
Vs 2 I will Say
 
H559
אמר
'âmar
BDB Definition:
1) to say, speak, utter

We need to proclaim, speak daily His Word and His Promises because He watches over His Word to perform it and the angels only hearken to His Word.  We need to watch our words because G-d is listening as well.
 
Vs 2 Refuge
 
H5643
סתרה / סתר
sêther / sithrâh
BDB Definition:
1) covering, shelter, hiding place, secrecy (noun masculine)
 
When we pray the Daily prayers from the Siddur (prayer book), what are we praying?   His Word.  His Word is our covering and our daily food.  It is our weapon against the advesary. Read Matthew 4 
 
Pro 30:5 Every word of God's is pure; he shields those taking refuge in him.
 
His Refuge  is the place of Faith/Trust and Prayer to The Most High.
 
Everyman's Talmud
 
"Faith finds its truest expression in the act of prayer, because only one who sincerely believes in God and His willingness to befriend His creatures addresses petitions to Him."
 
John G. Lake

"Faith is not manifested in shouts and yells.....It is the set faith of the soul that lays hold of G-d"

 
Daniel Juster "Growing to Maturity"[3] A Messianic Jewish Guide
 
"To the Eastern mind, a person's name represented the meaning and essence of the person.  To ask in Yeshua's name is to ask on the basis of the authority of His Name since we are in Him.  To use the name of an authority rightly, it must be used according to the character and expressed desire of the person whose name we use."
 
"God doe not give us believing faith for any request which is contrary to His written Word. He will not answer prayers which are selfishly motivated (James 4:3).  We come before God in the Name of Yeshua because only by His redemption and in His authority do we have the right to come."
 
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Are you believing the Bad Reports or His Word?  Who's report will you believe?  We will believe the Report of YHVW which is His Word.

Read Psalm 119: 18-25
Psa 119:25ד (Dalet) I lie prostrate in the dust; revive me, in keeping with your word.

Let us search our hearts as we prepare to recieve a refilling of His Ruach HaKodesh to  prepare us for the times ahead.  May Yeshua be glorified in all we say and do. Let us Walk In The Spirit Of The Torah Of Our Messiah
 
B'shem Yeshua HaMashiach 
 
Shalom In Yeshua
