FEAR OPERATES ON THE UNKNOWN



FEAR OPERATES IN THE UNKNOWN

FAITH OPERATES IN THE KNOWN

Does that sound backwards to what you’ve been taught? I’ve walked with my Father and my Bridegroom going on fifty-eight years now, and as I grew to know Their nature, Their ways, Their thinking, Their acts and Their faithfulness, I learned what it really meant to “walk by faith”. And, I learned what “walking by faith” was not. He has been my Teacher and my Guide. It has been a hard road, but I am so grateful that, because of His training, I can face the future without fear! My life is dedicated to showing others that “walking on the water” is the only life to live—holding His hand and reaching out to help others who are sinking.

Romans 14:23: “…whatsoever is not of faith is sin.”

II Corinthians 5:7: “…we walk by faith, and not by sight.”

Habakkuk 2:4: “The just shall live by his faith.”

Hebrews 11:1: “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”

Jacob (James) 2:5: “Listen, my beloved brothers: Has Elohim not CHOSEN the poor of this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom, which He promised to those who love Him?”

Isaiah 41:10, 13: “DO NOT FEAR, FOR I AM WITH YOU! Do not be dismayed, for I am your Elohim. I will strengthen you. I will help you. I will uphold you with the right hand of My righteousness…For I, Yahuweh, your Elohim, am holding your right hand, saying to you `DO NOT FEAR, FOR I WILL HELP YOU’ ”. Notice: Right hand to right hand--the Covenant handshake.

II Timothy 1:7: “ELOHIM HAS NOT GIVEN US THE SPIRIT OF FEAR, but of love, and of power and of a sound mind”.

I John 4:16: “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love”.

From the Hebrew Tehillim: Psalm 32:8: “I will educate you and enlighten you in the proper path to travel. I will advise you with what I have seen”.

He leads us by His foreknowledge of the future. Therefore our faith rests solidly in what He sees and knows, and in His love for us. He gives us a spirit of boldness and clarity of direction to walk in His Presence into victory!

This morning as I was walking towards the Marina in downtown Tiberias, Israel, Father spoke these words to my spirit that have made the title of this article: “Fear operates in the unknown; Faith operates in the known. Then He proceeded to give me revelation on it, capsuling it from my years of experience in walking with Him in total dependency on Him. I’ve lived a life of miracles, and I’ve tried to teach the wisdom I’ve learned to as many as possible. I’ve written articles like “Faith Walk”, which is actually a manual on the subject. I’ve written the companion to it: “Daily Flowing in His Perfect Timing” and

Page 1

“Walk the Hard Road”, “Led” and “He Has Chosen the Poor of This World—Rich in Faith”. In almost every article I give the wisdom I’ve learned about knowing

Him and trusting Him. But, Americans, more than any other people on earth, have been, and are still being, methodically mind programmed--systematically from birth to death--to make the totally controllable, dependent on man, and incapable of thinking for themselves.

The television, the Internet, the public school system, DVDs, movies,

magazines, and on and on, have all worked together. In the article “Quiet Wars and Silent Weapons” and “Mind Control, Hidden Manipulation, and the World Brain” I reveal from the Illuminati handbook itself what has been done to Americans, and to people in the UK and Europe as well.

This mind programming has left people in a pathetic state of emotional and mentally self-centeredness—full of fear, dependent on man, living life for the

lusts of their flesh and the pride of life, and who are totally subservient to their programmers at about a toddler level of emotions, and a twelve-year old level of understanding. No matter how many PhDs they have, most are still emotional and mental children who cannot face the real world without someone to hold their hand. Most have been so pumped full of prescription drugs, hidden poisons, and genetically altered foods, that they are physical, mental and emotional slaves, weak and pitiful, and unable to cope with any reality that is beyond pleasant and nice.

Therefore, most are in denial of what is to come. If they wake up in the morning and all is OK in their little world, they figure all is OK everywhere else. Therefore, repentance and a dramatic radical turning towards submitting to walking by faith in the real Elohim of the Scriptures, is next to impossible. Nothing is impossible with Him! But, to deny themselves comforts, ease, promotions, and social status, to take on the discipline of being a “good soldier of Messiah Yahushua” is unthinkable for most. Therefore, they hear the warnings, the rumblings of things coming, and sit back with pizza in hand for another episode of CSI. [For you without a T.V.—you don’t need to know what CSI is—you’re obeying Isaiah 33:14-17 not to look on evil if you want to escape the punishment of “devouring fire” and “everlasting burnings”.

The ones that scare the Illuminati and Lucifer himself are the ones who don’t

have a T.V., who home school their children, teach their children the Torah of Yahuweh and Yahushua, eat natural foods, keep abreast of what the enemy is doing in his camp, practice their faith in obedience and fear of Elohim, witness to the saving good news of Messiah Yahushua, won’t be controlled by anyone but their Elohim, and sure won’t be controlled to do evil, who use the real Names of Father and Son, and walk in the fruit of the re-born spirit. These people terrify the hosts of hell and their agents. Did you know you were so scary? Did you know you are a threat to them?

Those that know Him well enough to trust Him, and whom He knows well enough to trust, walking together in unity as one, also know His ways, His thinking, His manner of doing things, and thus have no interest in submitting to

man, for they are not fearful…they don’t believe in fear.

I’ve never believed in fear. I know my Father and my Bridegroom! It’s Ok to brag if you know Him—in fact we are commanded to do so…Jeremiah 9:23-24.

A lot of people think they know Him, but they are untested. They’ve lived in a self-centered bubble all their lives with their belief system, and have no clue as to how to trust Him for basics like food, money, safety, direction, and health.

He tells us the end from the beginning. (John 16:13) And in between He holds our hand and guides our steps (Isaiah 41:10, 13, Psalm 37:23).

FEAR PARALYZES A PERSON. IT DESTORTS TRUTH AND REALITY. IT CAUSES WRONG DECISIONS BASED ON WRONG ASSUMPTIONS. IT HAS NO FOUNDATION. IT IS LIKE WALKING IN TOTAL DARKNESS.

FEAR IS BASED ON THE UNSTABLE PREDICTIONS OF THE SOUL--mind, emotions, reasoning, feelings, will power—and on assumptions of what the unknown might hold. FEAR HAS NO ANCHOR. It makes one lost in a sea of confusion. It’s reasoning is earth-bound. It is based in panic for self-

preservation. It evaluates possibilities from a few facts and lots of previous conditioning—mind control, negative experience, too many horror movies, words of others who are in fear, fear tactics of the news, etcetera—and it makes its decisions totally 100% without the Father Yahuweh and the Son Yahushua. He has nothing to do with fear, whining, confusion, negative emotions like anger and panic or trauma. He deals in peace with the peaceful that rest in Him because they trust in Him. He cannot deal with us if we are not resting in His peace, which is a demonstration of faith.

Isaiah 26:3-4: “You will keep him in PERFECT PEACE whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You. Trust in Yahuweh forever: For in Yahuweh is everlasting strength”.

HE IS LIGHT. Fear is of the dark kingdom of Lucifer. Fear is rooted in what Lucifer might do, what demons might do, what evil people might do, what might happen if Yahuweh doesn’t pull off a miracle according to your expectations.

Most people have total dependency on doctors, drugs, bosses, companies, retirement funds, banks, pastors, priests and rabbis, etc., and yet they refuse to trust Father—the Creator of heaven and earth! Many say they trust Father, and then grab onto some human for their security blanket because they don’t know Father from “a hole in the wall”.

Ask yourself: What are my beliefs based on? You will probably quickly think: “the Word” or “the Scriptures” or “the Bible”. But, how well do you know what the WHOLE Word says to you personally? Who is your teacher? How much time

have you devoted to studying the Word for yourself, alone with Him in His Presence, with the Spirit of Yahuweh to teach you—not some book, or CD or DVD? Who interprets what the Word says to you--a pastor, priest, rabbi,

Page 3

denominational or organizational leader, congregational leader, or a T.V.

minister or book author? If you are not taught by His Spirit as you STUDY (with notebook, pen in hand, ready to record what He shows you so you don’t forget it) then your faith is most likely based on probabilities—a mixture of truth and error. There is only one source of pure, undiluted truth—His Spirit. Most read the Word with their denominational glasses on, and do not see the fine print of truth. They assume it says a certain thing because they heard some teaching on the passage. Get your truth from the Truth Himself! Well does the Hebrew

Matthew call the “foolish virgins” (KJV), “lazy fools.” The lazy fools are too

busy with the lusts of their flesh to learn from Him, so they do not prepare for

what is coming, and so will find themselves in a tormenting traumatic state when reality hits.

Father tests. Father disciplines. Most people think when the hard times come that it’s the devil after them. They do not know that He only disciplines those He loves. Untested, undisciplined, unbroken people—people that remain self-righteous, stubborn, in delusion, and in denial--will end up with the consequences of their own choices. He will not intervene if you decide

to trust man over Him. He’ll back off. He’s a jealous Elohim.

Sometimes He sends people to help us, but then He lets us know they’re from Him. Even at that, the Word warns us, especially in these last days, that we

cannot trust human beings!

Faith has substance—it is anchored, grounded, tested, strong, and knows before hand the end from the beginning. Faith is NOT “HOPE”! Faith obtains what is hoped for. Faith is an action word. It acts on what it believes and moves out on it—knowing it will not be disappointed.

Faith’s substance and evidence is based on:

1) HIS FAITHFULNESS! HIS PROMISES! HIS INABILITY TO LIE!

2) Personal, tested, intimate relationship where we thoroughly trust Him, and He thoroughly trusts us on a moment by moment basis

3) Personal experience where we’ve seen His faithfulness over and over

4) Hearing from His Spirit the end from the beginning, and knowing the outcome before anything starts—learning the general path, and watching Him lead your steps

5) KNOWING HIS NATURE AND HIS WAYS AND HIS THOUGHTS!

Lamentations 3:21-23: “This I recall to my mind, therefore I wait: The kindness of Yahuweh! For we are not consumed, for his compassions have not ended. They are new every morning—GREAT IS YOUR FAITHFULNESS!”

Numbers 23:19: “El is not a man that He should lie, nor a son of man that He should repent. HAS HE SAID, AND SHALL HE NOT DO IT, OR SPOKEN AND SHALL HE NOT MAKE IT GOOD?”

Page 4

Hebrews 6:18: “…by two unchangeable things in which IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ELOHIM TO LIE…we might have strong encouragement--we who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the expectation set before us”. The two unchangeable things are 1) HIS WORD AND 2) HIS NAME.

Psalm 138:2: “…I will acknowledge Your Name, for Your kindness and Your truth—for YOU HAVE EXALTED YOUR WORD EVEN BEYOND YOUR NAME”. His Name is only as good as His faithfulness to fulfill His Word!

Yet, foolish people trust in man, who by his very sinful nature is prone to lie, to fail, to deceive, to let us down, to reject us, to manipulate and control us. If He doesn’t give us a spirit of fear, and He doesn’t, then who does? Who do the fearful “trust” to do bad things?

FEAR IS FAITH IN REVERSE! IT PRESUMES THAT YAHUWEH AND YAHUSHUA WILL FAIL, AND LUCIFER AND EVIL MEN WILL PREVAIL, OR THAT SOMETHING WILL BE TAKEN OUT OF OUR CONTROL. If you are in anxiety and fretting, it is because you are trying to control your situation. If you are in peace and rest it is because you trust Him to control everything for your good. He does only want our good!

Because Greco/Roman westernized man is not used to trusting Elohim, the thought of trusting One not seen is scary. Yet, they say they trust Him to give them eternal life. Where’s the logic! How can you trust someone you don’t know with your eternal life? How can you love someone you don’t know?

FAITH IS ROOTED IN WHAT HE HAS ALEADY SAID, AND HIS FAITHFULNESS TO

DO AS HE HAS SAID. True faith must be rooted in the written Word first and foremost. But, daily, faith should be also rooted in His personal words to us as we sit in His Presence and let Him teach the written Word, and point out to us personally what He wants us to know and to do.

VERY IMPORTANT: Just because something is written in the Word, you can’t just blab it and grab it, name it and claim it, unless He personally lets you know it is yours! Just because He made a promise to Abraham, or someone else in the Word, doesn’t mean He made it to you! Just because He allowed Gideon to “put out a fleece” doesn’t mean it is precedent for you to do that. There are promises to different groups of people. For examples: Psalm 91 was written by Moses--the Bride’s Attendant. It is the Bride’s Psalm. If you do not meet the condition in verse one, the other verses do not apply to you. The promises in Deuteronomy 28:2-14 can only be claimed by those who astutely obey verse one. If you do not pick up your own execution stake to die to self, and forsake all to follow Him, you are not His disciple – Luke 14:25-33.

You have to obey the conditions. If you are daily flowing in His perfect will and His perfect timingas a good servant of Messiah Yahushua, then there are rewards, but the lazy ones will be beaten with many stripes. (Luke 12:47-48)

There’s a lot of religious sentimentality in the religion of Christianity that will fall apart when tested by pressure. Everything depends on knowing the character and nature of the one you trust. If you do not know by experience

Page 5

His nature and character, His ways and His thinking, then you won’t know how to walk with Him. And, I might add, those who know Him use His correct Names and titles, and won’t play games by willfully throwing paganism in His face!

Your faith must be based on the faithful reputation of the one who is giving you the instructions. If you don’t know His ways of doing things, you may end up thinking the works of the devil are His works, and the works of Yahuweh are the works of the devil. You need to know how He operates. By reading the Tenack you will learn a lot. You can’t know Messiah outside knowing the Father (John 6:44-45).

When He says something is, you can “take it to the bank”. It’s for sure! But, you must learn to know His voice. He speaks to us in at least forty ways—but mainly by impression to the spirit (not the soul). He speaks to us in our re-born spirit, and directs us by His Presence. He doesn’t fool with our fluxuating soul realm that is controlled by our sin nature, our fleshly lusts and can be so easily manipulated by controlling people.

If the soul is not controlled by the Spirit of Yahuweh within our re-born spirit, then there is constant confusion, and usually the spirit is stifled and the soul takes control. Many who say they are born from above act just like anyone else who is on their way to hell. The fruit of the re-born Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23) is what distinguishes the real from the false—slowly read I John, with Him to teach you. How well do you understand what He is telling you to do? If you are used to hearing Him you know His voice. You know what He is saying—you have a relationship with Him. He is telling you daily what to do—via the Word and a

personal plane. I live in His Presence. If His Presence even steps back for 30 seconds, I know it—and I panic. I fear losing Him. I fear displeasing Him. I fear Him. Whatever or whoever you fear losing is your “Elohim”—the one that controls your actions and your decisions. For many it is money, for most, it is security. But, without the fear of Yahuweh, you can’t have any clear wisdom. Fear of losing Him is a natural result of falling in love. It is a natural result of even thinking of losing your best Friend, your constant Companion, Your precious beloved, your Master—the King of Kings. How well you understand anything is dependent on how well you know Him--not by some churchy or religious sentimentality, concept, philosophy, or belief system, but by actual real experience in knowing Him—the real One of the Word. You can’t know Him outside the Word! He does NOT think like we do (Isaiah 55:8-11).

We must LEARN HIS WAYS: Psalm 103:7 … “…HE SHOWED HIS WAYS TO MOSES”. If you don’t walk with Him and let Him show you His ways, you’ll never learn them. Walk the hard road—it is the easiest way in the long run. He gave me Psalm 94:12-13 in Hong Kong in 1994: “Blessed is the man You discipline O Yah, and instruct out of Your Torah, to give him rest from the days of evil, until the pit is dug for the wicked”.

Hebrews 11:5-10: If He does not discipline us, this passage says we are bastards—not His kids! We must submit to His discipline, for He is training us

Page 6

for reigning!

Never make a decision based on fear-that’s the stupidest thing you can do!

I’ve watched people come to Israel, or Aqaba, Jordan, and they come like scared rabbits with all their Babylonian idolatry in tow-–their material junk—along with their cultural baggage, their emotional toddler baggage, their “hang ups”, and their sins, and they fall on their faces from fear and ignorance. They don’t study, don’t research—don’t learn anything, they just come with their pride and arrogance and expect to be treated like royalty, and find they are treated with all sorts of putdowns by the locals. They expect Someone they do not know to do something for them, and when He doesn’t, they grab some

human to help them and fall apart. I’ve watched it over and over. Like I said, it is not impossible, but almost impossible to learn to live by faith in America, or in the cushy surroundings of the UK or other places of relative freedom, for a while longer. He is bringing a remnant into the wilderness, stripped of all but a few necessities and a longing to know Him. When He called me into the wilderness of Edom, He said, “I want you to give away all that you have and move to Jordan”. I did it. Do I regret it? NO!!!!

He taught me fearlessness in the bold power of the anointing of the Spirit while preaching on the streets of Los Angeles’ skid row at all hours of the night,

ministering in rescue missions and prisons, facing gangs, Arab terrorists, murderers, hauling loads of Bibles through the streets of Hong Kong by myself at all hours of the night, going through tribal wars in Africa, dodging secret police in China, and almost being killed over and over in a few other experiences. But, I gained the reputation of being a “risk taker” because I didn’t make any decisions based on fear—just based on what He told me to do. I’ve lived a life of miracles…and I know Him!

Being with Father, and a lot of the time by myself in “foreign countries”, and trusting Him for everything, is one constant adventure. My life is one of daily tackling “the slopes of Everest”. Nothing boring about following the Lamb wherever He goes! Just remember: “home is where the toothbrush is”. And, for those more advanced than that in following Him, “home is where the tree twigs are”. I found that out one day on the top of a mountain above Sipi Falls in Uganda. Tree twigs make good toothbrushes.

Romans 4:14-22 tells us that Abraham was “completely persuaded that what He had promised, He was also able to do”—verse 21.

Rav Sha’ul was completely persuaded that He was able to keep Him: II Timothy 1:12: “For this reason I also suffer these things, but I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to watch over that which I have committed to Him until that Day”.

As with faith, so with intercession: As we hear, so we proclaim. (II Kings 17:1, for example) As we hear, so we do. NOT: “As you proclaim, so He does for us”. He is not our servant! Tested faith via experience produces BOLDNESS! Faith is an action word. He speaks; we jump while calling out

Page 7

“Yes Sir!” It’s Ok to jump—He’s got a strong net positioned about 10 feet down. (Read my article: “Walking the Hard Road”)

Knowing Him is the only way to have the “intestinal fortitude”—the guts--to walk by faith. I once saw a T-shirt in a Christian bookstore with the prayer: “You give me the guts and I’ll give you the glory”. I’ve prayed that a lot. I have physical impairments. I am not strong physically. But, I praise Him for every step I take! Spiritually fiery strength goes a long way in strengthening the mind, emotions, will power, and body.

Look at “Gideon’s 300” and see how many went home cowards. He doesn’t need cowards—He needs disciplined, submitted soldiers, servants, personal

friends, who will move forward at His command without any excuses or “yeah but”. If you’re not cut out to live His lifestyle of faith, then stay home. But, if you are ready and willing to learn, step out today and do something that will test your faith.

Faith equals walking in His Light, in set-apartness – walking in the known—and fear equals walking in darkness—stumbling in the unknown.

The end of the fearful and the coward is found in Revelation 21:8—a horrible end. To be cowardly and fearful means not only no reward, but can mean no eternal life. To have fear and anxiety—which is lack of faith in Him--reveals

that one does not know Him. It is frightening that many will hear Him say at the judgment “I never knew you – depart from Me…”

It is amazing how few who are in the religion of Christianity or the Messianic religion have a spirit of repentance, humility, contriteness, are sensitive to His conviction of sin, and who walk in the genuine fruit of the re-born spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. (Galatians 5:22-23) Verses 24 and 25 say: “And those who are

Messiah’s have nailed to the stake the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit”.

All too many have a religious spirit. There is no more vicious spirit than a religious spirit, which also contains jezebel spirits, spirits of jealousy, competition and cruelty. Most are religious, proud, haughty, self-righteous, and self-centered with hidden agendas. When reality hits, they will be exposed. The day to come will reveal all things, our Messiah tells us. These will be rightfully terrified at the judgment seat of Yahuweh.

Jeremiah 17:5-9: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man, who makes flesh his arm of support…”

Proverbs 29:25: “The fear of man brings a snare”…a noose around the neck, a hook, a trap …

Those that want truth are willing to change in a second—dump the old, embrace the new, and come into alignment in obedience with what is on His heart. Because remember: TRUTH DEMANDS CHANGE! If you hear truth and do not change, then the judgment ax will fall.

I had a dream in which I saw a short little well dressed man with dress slacks, coat and hat, walking into a huge empty room. He was looking around at the emptiness. Then two huge hands came out of nowhere and locked onto the man’s little hips. He looked startled but not afraid. The hands lifted him up and turned him totally around and took him out of the room. As he was being carried out, he looked at me and said, “He picked me up, and He turned me around”. Profound!

Our Father wants to take us and turn us totally around and bring us into the fullness of His Kingdom. Let Him do it!
