A Family in Need....

 Psalms 41:1 
Blessed is he who considers the poor; 
YHVH does deliver him in a day of evil.

We went to visit an elderly couple that had left town but due to the husband becoming depressed and country-sick from being in the city had to come back and had to start from scratch. We were told that they needed help. WOW! We had no idea. They had no walls, no kitchen, no bathroom, no electric, and no water. We went down to see them and blessed them with an offering that falls short. Count your blessings. I even got bit by their daughters' dog but also got lots of big hugs. This is reality.

This is what they have. They told us that, "If we had water we would be living here now,
 but it won't be pass 4 days. No matter if we have electric or not."

Proverbs 28:27 
He who gives to the poor does not lack, 
But he who hides his eyes does have many curses. 

 Pile of lumber for the new/used house. Don Filiberto said, "Look how I was blessed". 
Half of the wood can not be reused due to being cracked.
 

Isaiah 41:17
 “When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongues have failed for thirst,
 I, YHVH, do answer them; I, the Elohim of Yisra’ĕl, do not forsake them. 

They are currently raising two grandchildren.

Deuteronomy 15:4 
“Only, there should be no poor among you. For YHVH does greatly bless you in the land which
 YHVH your Elohim is giving you to possess as an inheritance, 

 They were sad that they had nothing to give us. We gave them some plantains and a donation to get 173 meters of electric wire and water hoses for them to have what most people take for granted. All donations are delivered 100% to their designated use. Now we seek funds to have a bathroom and septic built.

Praise Abba He loves us more than the birds of the field.
 If you feel led to give please do so on the donate link or in the button 
Offering to the poor, widows and orphans. 

Matthew 6:26  
“Look at the birds of the heaven, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into storehouses, 
yet your heavenly Father does feed them. Are you not worth more than they? 

Acts 2:44-45 
 And all those who believed were together, and had all in common,
 and sold their possessions and property, and divided them among all, as anyone might have need.
 

Shalom!

HalleluYAH!  

Prophesy fulfilled? Maybe? Just wanted to share news from IsraEL that could bring much judgement and accelerated signs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=48&v=8LI2Nnt9T3Y  

We have Ushpizin(Visitors!)! Part 2 of 2

Shalom brothers and sisters in Messiah! I pray that you are all doing well 

and that you can be used by YHVH for His Glory!

Here we have been VERY blessed especially of late. YHVH has allowed us in the past

 2 weeks to have several families come up to visit us. We have been able to share the Word with them.

 Pray that it makes an impact in their lives and that we can continue to share YHVH with others!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have been very blessed to have a large family from down in town come up to visit us. 

We have been sharing the Word with them and they seem to be very receptive to it. This family has 

come out of a lot of bad situations so once again please pray that they can fully come out 

of that and be able to fully embrace the Whole Word of YHVH!

Now, on to the pictures!

 

Isaiah 9:2-3

The people who were walking in darkness have seen a great light; 

upon those who dwelt in the land of the shadow of death a light has shone.
3 You shall increase the nation; You shall make its joy great. They shall rejoice before You,

 as in the joy of harvest, as men rejoice when they divide the spoil. 

Sharing the harvest and giving out the bread, physically AND spiritually too!

 

 

Please pray for this young lady named Dinia. She has a very sweet heart but she has been in 

some very tough situations in her life and has only recently been freed some that, part of which 

you will see in this blogpost. She has 2 young children so please pray that they

 will be able to grow up in a home where YHVH is first and that none of the 

dangers of life can come and try to take them away from HIM.

Psalms 133:1

Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! 

 

Psalms 98:6-9

With trumpets and the sound of a horn; Raise a shout before YHVH, the Sovereign.
7 Let the sea roar, and all that fills it, The world and those who dwell in it.
8 Let the rivers clap their hands, Let the mountains sing together for joy before YHVH,
9 For He shall come to judge the earth. He judges the world in righteousness, And the people in straightness. 

The shofar has been a great teaching tool to use, especially with larger groups and

 where youth and children are involved. We share how the shofar was used in times of war

 as well as in times of calling the people to repentance. And almost every time

 a group comes up, they all will try to blow the shofar, and it’s great to 

see them laugh and smile when they see how hard it is to blow!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now here comes an interesting and what would become exciting story. 

We were talking about some things in the Scriptures when one of the young ladies 

named Angie that came told my dad that she had wanted to be baptized before 

and that she had gone to ask the pastor at the church in El Duruy. Here comes the crazy part though. 

The pastor told the Angie that to be baptized she must stop dressing so immodestly 

as well as stop playing soccer, and if she did that she could be baptized. Well, as you

 could figure out that surprised her a little bit, and once she told us, we told her right 

away that there is no place in Scripture that talks about that. In fact, there is no requirement

 to be baptized other than to believe with all your heart that Yahshua is the Messiah. We shared 

with them the story of Philip and the Kushite(Ethiopian) eunuch and how 

He was baptized almost immediately after He accepted Messiah. We told them what it

 meant to be baptized and then we asked who wanted to be baptized. Angie and 

then Dinia both said they wanted to be baptized! 

Here are some pictures!

Acts 8:27-31

And he arose and went, and saw, a man of Kush, a eunuch of great authority

 under Kandake the sovereigness of the Kushites, who was in charge

 of all her treasury, and had come to Yerushalayim to worship,
28 and was returning. And sitting in his chariot, he was reading the prophet Yeshayahu.
29 And the Spirit said to Philip, “Go near and join him in that chariot.”
30 And running up, Philip heard him reading the prophet Yeshayahu,

 and said, “Do you know what you are reading?”
31 And he said, “How am I able, unless someone guides me?” 

And he called Philip near, to come up and sit with him. 

Acts 8:32-35

32 And the passage of the Scripture which he was reading was this,

 “He was led as a sheep to slaughter, and like a lamb silent before 

its shearer, so He opened not His mouth.
33 “In His humiliation He was deprived of right-ruling. 

And who shall declare His generation? Because His life was taken from the earth.”

34 And the eunuch, answering Philip, said, “I ask you, about whom 

does the prophet say this, about himself or about some other?”
35 And Philip opening his mouth, and beginning at this Scripture, brought to him the Good News: Yahshua! 

Acts 8:36-39

36 And as they were going on the way, they came to some water.

 And the eunuch said, “Look, water! What hinders me from being immersed?”
37 And Philip said, “If you believe with all your heart, it is permitted.” 

And he answering, said, “I believe that Yahshua Messiah is the Son of Elohim.”
38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still. And both Philip

 and the eunuch went down into the water, and he immersed him.
39 And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of YHVH caught Philip away, 

and the eunuch saw him no more, for he went his way, rejoicing.

Yahshua's last instruction on earth was to baptize and make disciples in all the nations:

Matthew 28:18-20

And Yahshua came up and spoke to them, saying, 

“All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.
19 “Therefore, go and make taught ones of all the nations, immersing them

 in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Set-apart Spirit,
20 teaching them to guard all that I have commanded you.

 And see, I am with you always, until the end of the age.” Amĕn. 

 

Please pray for these 2 women, Angie and Dinia. Pray that they continue to learn about 

Yah’s Word and that they can learn how to be a bride of Messiah and stay away 

from the evils of this world. Sister Tammy has been very busy making several skirts

 for them and then trading their very immodest clothes for beautiful coverings. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And now it’s time to celebrate! Yahshua said in Luke 15:

Luke 15:10

“I say to you, in the same way there is joy in the presence of

 the messengers of Elohim over one sinner repenting.”

HalleluYAH!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Once again, please pray for this family. They need to hear more about YHVH’s Word 

so that they do not go astray again. They have come a long way and are continuing 

their walk back to the REAL truth of YHVH’s Word. Pray that we will be able to 

continue to minister to them and that they can truly become followers of Messiah. 

They have physical needs but more importantly they have spiritual needs and we 

desire to be able to show them as much as we know with the knowledge and time that we have.  

And finally, please continue praying for us. Times are getting darker but that is when 

the light shines even brighter. We lack nothing(Praise YHVH!) but we want to be able

 to help with the needs of others, both physically and spiritually. We thank you all for

 all that you are doing and all you are going to do, and may YHVH 

bless you and multiply His blessings on you!

Numbers 6:24-26

“YHVH bless you and guard you;
25 YHVH make His face shine upon you, and show favor to you;
26 YHVH lift up His face upon you, and give you peace.”

Until next time…

Shalom!

We have Ushpizin(Visitors!)! Part 1 of 2

Shalom brothers and sisters in Messiah Yahshua! 

I pray that you are all doing well and that YHVH will use you for His Glory! 

Here we have been VERY blessed especially of late. YHVH has allowed us

 in the past 2 weeks to have several families come up to visit us. 

We have been able to share the Word with them. Pray that it makes an impact 

in their lives and that we can continue to share YHVH with others!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We were very blessed to be able to have Dona Blanca, some of her family, 

Don Eulogio+ Dona Benilda with their grandchildren, as well as a 

couple of kids from El Duruy come up the mountain.

Now, on to the pictures!

 

Praise Yah that the rain stopped enough to bring these people up.

 It had been raining off and on all week but thankfully it has stopped

 enough to bring the horses down, especially for Dona Blanca. 

The road we have going up to the mountain is very bad, and when it rains it is undriveable. 

But thankfully they were willing to walk and ride up the mountain.

Isaiah 2:3

And many peoples shall come and say, “Come, and let us go up to the mountain of YHVH, 

to the House of the Elohim of Yaʽaqob, and let Him teach us His ways, and let us walk in His paths,

 for out of Tsiyon comes forth the Torah, and the Word of YHVH from Yerushalayim.” 

 When we read this verse, the 1st thing that we think of is the physical mountain in Yisra’el.

 But it also has a Spiritual connection as well. And it is really cool to read that verse and think, 

“Wow! These people are from the nations, and they are coming 

up the mountain to learn YHVH’s Word”. YHVH has blessed us so much,

 physically and spiritually, and it couldn’t be possible without you. May YHVH bless you all!

 

Psalms 133:1

“See how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to dwell together in unity.”

We do not know how long we have to make a difference in someone’s life here in Costa Rica, 

so we want to be able to share YHVH with as many people as possible

. Many of you have blessed us with your gifts and we thank you so much! 

There is a lot of need here, and we don’t even know about the other villages

 that we have recently been invited to. There are a lot of people with physical

 and spiritual needs here.That is why your gifts are so important, not for us, 

but for others, as well as for your own blessing, as Shaul(Paul) said to the Philippians:

Philippians 4:17,19

Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that is multiplying to your account.
19 And my Elohim shall fill all your need according to His riches in esteem by Messiah Yahshua.

HalleluYAH!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Psalms 127:3

Look, children are an inheritance from YHVH, The fruit of the womb is the reward. 

Children are very important to YHVH. In fact, the very 1st command that 

YHVH gave to Adam and Eve was to be fruitful and multiply, 

so it must be very important. Yahshua cared about children as well: 

Matthew 19:13-14

Then young children were brought to Him to lay His hands on them 

and pray, and the taught ones rebuked them.
14 But Yahshua said, “Allow the young children and do not stop them

 from coming to Me, for of such is the reign of the heavens.” 

YHVH has supplied all our needs here, and we have lacked nothing,

 which allows us to be able to give even more to others. One of the best ways 

to be able to share with others is food. Food is something that we have in abundance, 

and it is something that we are able to give out in abundance. Hospitality is something 

that the Jewish people, particularly the Bedouins, are very good at. 

They do many things that we can and should learn from that can help us serve others better. 

Praise Yah!

May YHVH bless each one of these men, women, and children and show them the REAL

 truth of His Word. We have shared the Word with many of them but because 

of the influence of the ‘church’  it is much harder for them to accept what we 

say since it is so different from what their churches teach. Pray that their eyes will be able to see, 

ears will be able to hear, and their hearts will be able to understand the 

Word of Yah and come back to Him. Pray that YHVH can continue using us for His Glory!

Until next time…

Shalom!

Being a Blessing!

Shalom brothers and sisters in Messiah! 

We pray that you are all having a blessed time wherever you are and 

that YHVH will use you to be a part of the mission!

Here in Costa Rica we have been very blessed with everything that we have,

 and with that provision that YHVH through you has given, we have been able to bless others as well,

 not just with the physical needs but more importantly with the Spiritual needs as well. 

Not just to give but to give to open a door for the Truth. A BIG thank you to the McDaniel’s 

who have so graciously allowed us to stay at their house in Costa Rica all this time and use their car as well. Through them YHVH has been able to use us here and without their help it wouldn’t be possible.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, on to the pictures!

 

Please pray for this sweet elderly couple, Don Eulogio, Dona Genobeva, and the rest of their family. 

They have been very kind to us when we visit them. We have been able to talk with them about the 

Word as well as being able to bless them and their family with clothes, food, and more. Pray for their health, especially Don Eulogio’s, and pray that their daily needs will be met. They have several

 children and grandchildren staying with them as well, so pray that they will be able to 

grow in His Word and that they can be used for Yah’s glory.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have also been blessed to meet this couple named Don Eulogio and Dona Benilda

 that live halfway down the mountain. We planted seeds in them a while back when doors 

had been opened in the church but then rejected the message of truth. They love to study the 

Word and have recently found out that what they were taught in their church didn't match up 

with what the Scriptures said.  We have been able to help them learn more, using with some

 of the teachings that are in the internet. There are some great ministries around but sadly 

most of them are not in Spanish. However, there are a couple of ministries beginning to

 translate their studies and teachings into Spanish. One of those ministries, as you can

 see by the pictures above, is 119 Ministries through their Spanish ministry called Examinalo Todo.

 Their studies have been a great help to many(us as well) because they are very easy to

 understand and more importantly use mostly Scripture references in their teachings.

However, Bro Eulogio and Sister Benilda have some needs. Do you see what’s wrong in the pictures? 

They aren't sitting down! Why? Because of the fact that they didn’t have almost any chairs 

and the ones that the did have where those flimsy plastic type that crack easily. For them 

it was fine but when company came it meant that there wouldn't be enough chairs to sit in…

Which brings us to the next part of this blogpost…

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Bro. Jesus was blessed to meet this young man named Don Lidier. What started out as 

just a couple of questions for his English class turned into a very big blessing for both him and Jesus.

 He loves to study, read, and learn about the Word of YHVH and wants to learn even 

more about anything and everything he can. Pray that his eyes will continue to be

 opened and that his wife and daughter can also come to the truth

.

Anyway, there is something else he does as well. He builds furniture! He has made all types

 of wood furniture, from cabinets to shelves, and even better, chairs. When we found out about this we 

knew just the man to call. What is really cool is that we blessed him with some money to build the chairs…

And then were able to give the chairs to Bro Eulogio and Sister Benilda! Isn’t it amazing

 how YHVH works? YHVH through you blesses us with the finances to be able to bless Don Lidier,

 who in turn builds us these chairs with which we are able to bless them, who in turn bless 

us back when we see their faces! And then, after it all, we say…

HalleluYAH!!!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

But we aren't done yet. This is  Don Eulogio and Dona Benilda’s ‘outhouse’. As you can see,

 it’s pretty much just  a old dirty hole in the ground. Bro Jesus asked Bro Eulogio what he 

would need to build a bathroom with a shower connected to their house. Don Eulogio told 

my dad it would cost over $450 to build it. Bro Jesus put these pictures on Facebook 

asking that if anyone felt led to give to be able to make them a new bathroom. And amazingly, within a week, YHVH through some of you gave almost all of what we needed to be able to build it! HalleluYAH!

 We cannot thank you enough for all that you have done for us and more importantly 

for others here in Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Panama.

Kabod-YHVH!(Glory to YHVH!)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Continue to pray for us here. We lack nothing but want to be able to provide even more 

others in need here. YHVH loves a joyful giver, and we want to be able to give even more 

on your behalf showing them brotherly love as the first assembly. PHILADELPHIA!  

Times are getting tough but this is when the light shines the brightest. Make sure your lamps 

are full of oil and that your light is shining in the midst of the darkness. May we continue to 

follow YHVH always and be able to share HIS Word with the rest of the World!

May YHVH El Shaddai multiply blessings on your account!

Until next time…

Shalom!

Yom Teruah 2012… The Bridegroom is Coming!

Chag Sameah Teruah-Happy Feast of Trumpets

El Duruy, Valle de la Estrella, Costa Rica

Lost House of Yisra'el

Leviticus 23:2,24
 “Speak to the children of Yisraʼel, and say to them, ‘The appointed times of YHVH,
which you are to proclaim as set-apart gatherings, My appointed times, are these:
24 “Speak to the children of Yisraʼel, saying, ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month,

 you have a rest, a remembrance of blowing of trumpets, a set-apart gathering.

 

Our family thought we were going to be alone for these feasts.
Then we told one family about the feasts and then sent a text message to some other people.
We prayed that Abba YHVH would use us and bring who He wanted to be with us.
It has been an amazing experience to see Him at work. We started receiving texts saying that
they were coming and that their neighbor wanted to come as well. HalleluYAH!

  Matthew 18:33
‘Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant,
as I also had compassion on you?ʼ 

We had to drive them up and down the mountain and across the river.
It took 4 trips in the day and 3 trips at night to move them but it was worth it. 

Psalms 72:3 "
Let the mountains bring peace to the people, And the hills, by righteousness."

  

Let the children come to me....
Our hope is that the next generation come to know, love and serve Yahshua HaMashiach.
These are the last generation. Help us become a testimony to them. I asked one of them,
 "Do you know a man of God?", and he answered " you". I lost words and felt disappointed
and humbled that he could not see Elohim in any other man.
At the same time I felt responsible for the Testimony I carry.

Psalms 149:3 "
Let them praise His Name in a dance; Let them sing
 praises to Him with the tambourine and lyre."

How beautiful are the inheritance of the womb He allows us to bring for Him.

 

Zechariah 8:23
“Thus said YHVH of hosts, ‘In those days ten men from all languages of the nations take hold,
yea, they shall take hold of the edge of the garment of a man, a Yehuḏite, saying,
 “Let us go with you, for we have heard that Elohim is with you.” 

Hebrews 4:12
"For the Word of Elohim is living, and working, and sharper than any two-edged sword,
 cutting through even to the dividing of being and spirit, and of joints and marrow,
and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart."

 

 

Psalms 98:6
"With trumpets and the sound of a horn;
Raise a shout before YHVH, the Sovereign."

HalleluYAH!!!

Jeremiah 16:19
"O YHVH, my strength and my stronghold and my refuge, in the day of distress the gentiles
 shall come to You from the ends of the earth and say, “Our fathers have inherited only falsehood,
futility, and there is no value in them.”

We have heard from those that came that they will return to be with us for Sukkot
and will bring others with them. Praise YAH for Ushpizin. Visitors for Sukkot are a blessing.
 We are preparing food and teachings and will need transportation to bring people up.
 It must be a 4x4 vehicle and we have contacted someone that will charge us a fee.
Pray for provision for that!

If you feel led to send a gift offering to cover the expenses to celebrate the feasts
in Costa Rica for the people of Valle de la Estrella and El Duruy please do so in the donation link.
Praise Abba El Shaddai and Yirei that provided for this feast and allowed
our family to reach this season of Moedim (Appointed times)

Philippians 4:17, 19-20
 "Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that is multiplying to your account.
And my Elohim shall fill all your need according to His riches in esteem by Messiah Yahshua.
 And to our Elohim and Father be esteem forever and ever. Amen."
