FORWARD MARCH
FORWARD MARCH!
In the mind of Yahuweh there is no such thing as retreat! He is a forward-moving Elohim! He provides no armor for our backside. He is our “rear guard”--but only as we go forward. (Isaiah 52:12) He is not the Elohim of retreat in the face of an enemy. Go back and read all those stories of battle, like Judges 7 and II Chronicles 20. He put no reverse gear in his tanks. His army moves forward in the power of His might to win! Because of the retreat of the spies with their fearful report, a whole generation had to die out before they could enter the promised Land--Numbers 13 and 14. It was because Caleb had “another spirit” that he took the mountain of his choice in the Land, and gave to his daughter her choice of the Land. Fear is opposite of faith, and only faith pleases Yahuweh.
Harriett Tubman was a legend in her day. She was nicknamed “Moses”. She was a slave who escaped, and who went back to help other slaves escape. Even when she gained her freedom she continued to help free slaves. Her daring boldness was renown. If anyone wanted to accompany her to freedom, there were rules she set up to protect those fleeing, as well as to protect herself, and to protect others helping slaves escape, so there was no chance of betrayed:
“ONE THING I ASK OF EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU: BE ON TIME, FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS, TELL NO ONE OF THE PLAN, AND BE PREPARED TO DIE”.
From Harriet Tubman – A Woman of Courage (Time for Kids books) Chapter 5: “Harriet Tubman succeeded because she was a tough leader. Once she started north with a group of passengers no one was allowed to turn back. She knew slaves who turned back might get caught. Then officials might force them to give away the location of other runaways and people who helped them. So Harriett always carried a gun with her. If someone thought he or she couldn’t go on, she
said she’d shoot. She never did. But, her words were enough to make the people continue.”
Abba doesn’t carry a gun, but those who seek freedom in these last days need to observe these same rules. Those that are prepared, trained, tested, and strong in faith must also be bold and tough to protect themselves and others.
Abba Yahuweh is a forward moving Elohim. He never put anything, or anyone, in motion and then ordered retreat.
“And Yahushua said…`No one, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fir for the Kingdom of Elohim”. (Luke 9:62)
“Remember Lot’s wife”. (Luke 17:32)
“The righteous shall live by faith, but if anyone draws back, My soul will have no pleasure in him”. (Hebrews 10:39)

“In faith, all these died, not having received the promises, but seeing them from a distance, welcomed and embraced them, and confessed that they were pilgrims and strangers on the earth. But, those who speak this way make it clear that they seek a fatherland. And yet, if they had indeed kept remembering that place from which they had come out, they would have had the chance to return. But now, they long for a better place that is a heavenly. Therefore Elohim is not ashamed to be called their Elohim, for He has prepared a city for them”. (Hebrews 11:13-16)
Exodus 14:13-15: “And Moshe said to the people: `Do not be afraid. Stand still and see the deliverance of Yahuweh, which He does for you today. … Yahuweh fights for you and you kept still. And Yahuweh said to Moshe, `Why do you cry to Me? Speak to the children of Israel and tell them to GO FORWARD!” Elohim never orders anyone forward then tells them to turn back—NEVER!
“Egypt” has always stood for paganism of the world system, the worship of wicked gods, and rule by those who think they are gods. Pharaoh was supposedly the incarnation of Amon Rah, the sun god. Yahuweh calls His people out of the abominations of the world system—and out of its humanism, which worships men as gods.
Going back to the nations that Egypt symbolized was part of Yahuweh’s punishment on the northern ten tribes, where, in Hosea 9:3, 6-7 He says: “but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and eat unclean food…For look they shall go because of destruction—Egypt gathers them up, Moph buries them, nettles possess their valuables of silver, thorns their tent. The days of punishment have come. The days of retribution have come. Israel knows! …” To be sent away in His anger, to go to a place of imprisonment and slavery because of sin--stubbornness, rebellion, apostasy, laziness and the worship of other gods of one’s making--is to return to a life of total captivity and slavery under a task master from hell. The one nation that finally absorbed the greatest number of the captive Ephramites is America – which also is the one nation that finally absorbed the greatest number of captive Jews too—who were turned out of their land in 70 CE for their sin. His people have been wandering in the wilderness of the nations for almost 2,000 years. Soon, a remnant will fulfill Ezekiel 37!
Yahuweh calls us to a life of going forward, ever being freed, as we are transformed into His image and likeness and partake of His promises for victory. But, going forward with Yahuweh means leaving life in Egypt behind and never looking back—never desiring to return to slavery just because one runs out of garlic and leeks, the well is temporarily short of water, and the diet of manna is boring. Just as with the new birth, we are required to leave the kingdom of darkness totally and never look back or return.
Page 2
The cost of following the Lamb forward is to forsake everything else – thus the cost of freedom is nothing less than death to the self-life. The more we lose the desires of the flesh for the self-life, the more freedom we have!
Isaiah 31:1: “Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help, and trust in horses and trust in chariots because they are many; and in horsemen because they are very strong, but they look not unto the set-apart one of Israel, neither seek Yahuweh.” Going back to where He delivered us out of is to accept total defeat!
In Jeremiah 44-45, after Nebuchadnezzar sacked Jerusalem and destroyed the Temple, a small remnant was left. Jeremiah unfortunately stayed with this remnant, whose leader was soon killed by a supposed friend. The people were in despair, so they thought if they escaped to Egypt Nebuchadnezzar would not find them. They asked Jeremiah to seek Yahuweh on the matter. Jeremiah came to them and said: “Thus says Yahuweh…” -- DO NOT go to Egypt because Nebuchadnezzar is going there too and he will kill you there. But, they railed on Jeremiah, calling him a liar. They said he was not hearing from Yahuweh, even though 40 years of his prophecies had come true. They were scared. Therefore, they rejected Yahuweh’s wisdom for their own reasoning and logic. They went to Egypt and Nebuchadnezzar came and sacked Egypt, killing them there. Those who do not listen to Yahuweh will die!
NO! Egypt is not symbolic of America! There are many, many reasons why the cities Nimrod (Babylon and Nineveh) founded (Babylon and Nineveh) are called “end-time Babylon”. End-time Babylon is an end-time country that is the most powerful nation on earth, crisscrossed with rivers, has a space program, and is called “the policeman of the earth” at a time clearly post 1948. Duh … now what nation is that? Spiritual Egypt set in motion a world system under Lucifer. Leaving Egypt therefore, is a spiritually symbolic of leaving the kingdom of darkness, leaving slavery under Satan, for His “promised land”.
In Exodus 14:13-15, we read that amidst all the whining, complaining, and anger of the slaves who wanted to go back to Egypt, saying slavery in Egypt was better than trusting Yahuweh, Yahuweh says to Moshe: “Why do you cry to Me? Speak to the children of Israel and tell them to GO FORWARD!
Ok—granted – there was huge sea in front of them, and Pharaoh’s army pursuing behind them. To have gone back to Pharaoh would have resulted in a horrible outcome. But, hey Moses – are you nuts! There’s a huge sea out there and nowhere else to go! YET YAHUWEH SAID: “GO FORWARD!”
We know the story. Yahuweh parted the sea and they walked over to Midian on dry ground. But, just a few days later, they started whining again and wanting to go back to slavery. Security is the god of most people, no matter what the cost of security. This is why so many abused women stay with their husbands, when Yahuweh wants to help them get out—fear of being alone and insecure.
Then when faced with Anakim in Numbers 13 and 14, those without faith in Yahuweh’s promises spread their fears throughout the camp with devastating
Page 3
results. Only Joshua and Caleb said: We can do it, because Yahuweh said we
could! He opened the Red Sea for them, and fought their battles against the Amalekites, gave them manna, water, a cloud by day and a fire by night for their protection. But, Anakim were 30-35’ giants and ate people for their food. Living out of the soul’s five senses is what has gotten man in trouble from the beginning. Eve “saw” the tree that it was good—good in her own eyes. The men saw the Anakim that they were giants. It is going by what we see, hear, taste, smell, and feel that gets us into all of our problems! We are called to live out of a re-born spirit that contacts eternity, and receive our battle plans directly and daily from the Captain of His Host.
Yes, this was another test of faith, and they all failed except three. I suppose Moshe sided with Caleb and Joshua. But, because they did not trust Yahuweh, a whole generation of people died out, and only Caleb and Joshua remained of the original group that came out of Egypt. Man exalted the abilities of man above Yahuweh’s abilities, and so they failed. Exalting the abilities of man over the ability of Yahuweh is a lifestyle in the western world!
Decisions made from fear, from human reasoning borne out of self-inflicted hopelessness, setting out to do one’s own agenda without consulting Yahuweh – or with illusionary faith in a self-created God – will always end in disaster!
Where is their any Scripture in the whole of the Word that says that once He set something or someone in motion, He ever went back on it? Where does it say that He ever sent anyone out, and then told them to retreat because He failed to take care of them?
Luke 14:25-33 tells us to test ourselves to see if we have it in us to finish our course. He doesn’t need fearful, weak, undisciplined, untested, security-loving disciples! If we are not ready to go all the way with Him, then we need to stay home and prepare to die a good death in faith. He doesn’t want people starting out and then running home.
We’re all called to live a life of martyrdom. The word “martyr” means “witness”. Whether we live or die, we are to die to self – and thus daily embrace the life of martyrdom, with peace, joy, love, and thanksgiving! It is in being self-centered that the enemy can take over one’s mind and cause all kinds of fearful thoughts.
In choosing the Gideon 300, Yahuweh sent the fearful home. Out of the original 32,000 troops gathered with Gideon, 22,000 men went home scared. Ten thousand remained. Out of the ten thousand, Yahuweh had to get down to 300 fearless soldiers. So He gave them the water-drinking test. I went to Ein Herod this past November. The stream where the test was held overlooks the Jezreel Valley where the camp of Midian was. So, they all saw the troops they’d be going against during their water-lapping test. The ones who never took their eyes off the enemy’s troops were the ones Yahuweh chose. Today, few are learning the strategies and positions of the enemy. And sadly, some are so enthralled with the enemy’s plans, they have no clue to what Yahuweh’s plan is.
Page 4
Luke 9:62 – Messiah said: “…No man having put his hand to the plough and looking back is fit for the Kingdom of Elohim”.
So, we need to evaluate if we have it in us to keep plowing and not look back.
This is why I stress thoroughly researching on the place the Spirit is putting in a person’ s heart to go to. For we must prepare in all ways—this is only wisdom!
Yahuweh wants no cowards in His army—He wants warriors, trained by experience, tested and tried and strong, who are prepared and ready for victory.
It has been said: “Elohim’s heroes are just ordinary people who have said `yes’ to Elohim so many times that it looks like they’ve done something great”.
Here is wisdom worth quoting—from Brother Andrew’s THE CALLING:
Pages 22-23: “As we spend time in the Scriptures and in prayer, it’s important not to get sidetracked in trying to determine whether we’ve received an official call from God or whether we have clear indication that we are doing God’s will. It’s too easy to get sidetracked up in the paralysis of analysis that we fail to act! Most of us often have the idea that God must have a special calling on our lives, a particular end for us to accomplish, and we must find out what it is for us. If we have no such calling from God, then we have not been selected by Him for special service and we can only live out our lives as drones in the kingdom, one monotonous and unimportant day at a time. But we need to understand that that is our idea, not God’s…God has given us in Scripture a full revelation of his nature and his character. And he has given us an unmistakably clear mandate to share Him and His Word with those who have not heard. What more do we need? If we focus on obeying Him on a daily basis--wherever we are--He leads us where He wants us to go and to the people He want us to reach.”
Pages 26-27: “…the Bible is full of ordinary people who went to impossible places and did wondrous things simply because they decided to obey God, even when others said `You can’t do that’. They weren’t any more qualified for their tasks than we are. But, they trust God to open the doors and give them the power they needed in their particular situations…The door may seem closed, but its only closed the way a supermarket door is closed. It stays shut when you remain at a distance, but as you deliberately move towards it, a magic eye above it sees you coming and the door opens. God is waiting for us to walk forward in obedience so He can open the door for us to serve Him”.
Page 39-42: “A few years ago I had a sore throat. I drank some of those herbal teas from California with little sayings printed on the tags. One of them said: `IF YOU AIN’T THE LEAD DOG, YOU ALWAYS HAVE THE SAME SCENERY’. OK, maybe it’s a little naughty, but I was struck with the truth in that statement when applied to our spiritual calling…Keep in mind that in J’s time the world was
Page 5
quite hostile to the good news, so much so that the people put J. to death. Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria—those places were as closed as any closed country is today. Yet His disciples were told to go anyway. They had to be pioneers, in other words, the `lead dogs’ if you will. The pioneer has to know where he is going and that takes planning. If we don’t push into new mission fields and go where we are needed rather than where it is safe, we’ll end up seeing the same old scenery, clinging to our same old theories and doing things the same old ways they’ve always been done. And we won’t get any closer to fulfilling the Great Commission to tell the world about Him…At the spiritual level, planning means taking the initiative. It’s not about sitting around until you are absolutely certain God is calling you to a particular task, direction, country or ministry. Planning is an act of faith. J. never told His disciples to wait for an invitation. He told them to GO. Where and when will often arise out of your time in the Scriptures…At the practical level, planning means research. Before I go into a country, I need to know what are the political, economic, and spiritual conditions of the place. How many believers are there? Are they allowed to practice and share their faith openly? What kind of persecution are they experiencing? How and where can I meet other believers? What are the specific needs of the church—Bibles, literature, training, hard-to-obtain equipment, money? What are the best ways for me to help them met those needs? Would I be reduplicating or complementing the work of others? … On the inside cover of my Bible I have pasted an interesting quote: `Either a man must be challenged, or he must be entertained”.
Page 61: “When instead of worrying about the obstacles we trust God to take care of them, our life becomes much more effective, not to mention much more fun. Then as problems arise, we can view them as part of the process in which God is teaching us to walk in faith”.
“We’ve got to begin somewhere, but begin we must. And the answer is obvious: WE HAVE TO LIVE A LIFE MORE REVOLUTIONARY THAN THAT OF THE REVOLUTIONARIES…Dr. Samuel Moffatt, a missionary in Korea…echoed some of my thoughts…`The Chinese communists have out disciplined us, outworked us, and out committed us. Unless we are willing to match their commitment in our service for the Lord, we are not going to make a difference there’.”
Page 77: “What’s the difference between a hero and a coward? Both are ordinary people, both are scared, and both are running. But, the hero is running in the right direction. Some kind of preparation took place that enabled him to act heroically”.
Page 78-80: “The real calling of God is not to a certain place or career, but to everyday obedience…Then as we follow the everyday call, He opens doors to where He want us to go, and closes doors to where He does not want us to go. That way, faithfulness to God’s calling is within our
Page 6
reach every day, and life becomes an adventure as we obey His Word and walk through the doors He has opened for us. On the other hand, if we agonize over whether we have received a special call, we waste valuable time and energy and, in effect, limit the work of God in our lives...How do we prepare to respond to that call? Part of the preparation is God’s doing, and part of it must be ours. God’s preparation of us began long before we decide to accept His call—long before we even knew who C. was. The fact is, God has been using all the events and experiences in our lives to prepare us for the kind of service He’s calling us to now. Whether our past was happy or sad, godly or sordid, God is building on that experience to make us into effective servants for Him. It may take an entire lifetime of preparation for one minute of supreme service…Looking back, I see how God used every one of those events to prepare me for his service…It’s important that we not despise our own life experiences.”
Page 93: “It amazes me how God leads the way when you get up and go to His people around the world. He always seems to guide you to the right people and the right situations. Often, I have found, the guidance does not happen until after I’ve left for where I’m going. Of course, I plan an itinerary, but I also listen for the Spirit’s leading, pay close attention to the people I bump into and remain open to changing my pans and seizing a God-given opportunity.”
Pages 147, 149: “Anyone who enters into a relationship with J. will be transformed into His instrument for changing the world…On a follow up visit to Cuba, I noticed a saying from revolutionary Che Guevara chiseled into a hospital wall: `If this Revolution is not aimed at changing people, then I am not interested’ ”.
[I am reminded of what the Chinese guard said to me after taking my Bibles, in answer to my question, “I thought you had religious freedom in China”: “Oh we do. But, that has nothing to do with Bibles. Bibles are counter-revolutionary materials.”
Page 150: “Whenever I pick up a copy of National Geographic, I feel a special
kind of challenge. Many times I have read of remote places in the world or primitive people ever before visited by modern people, I wonder, why do journalists get there first? Why not the representatives of C.? We should have the same determination, the same fearlessness, and the same refusal to accept `no’ as an answer that reporters and explorers and adventurers have. They manage to get in, so why do we say it is impossible or too dangerous for Christians?
Many of his statements are almost identical to mine in articles like “Daily Flowing in His Perfect Timing” and “Led”. I strongly recommend that you read God’s Smuggler by Brother Andrew and God’s Smuggler to China by Brother David. You can get both via Amazon Used Books.

Don’t be put off and judge those who use Christian lingo. Many of those in countries of persecution have the faith of Messiah like few do, and Abba honors faith in His abilities! How many modern Torah-guarders are working with the persecuted assemblies of Messiah throughout the world, helping the families of martyrs, and getting the Good News of the Kingdom into all nations? Abba can teach them Torah as they go forward in truth. We can facilitate that by our lifestyle and Spirit-directed words. (Refer to: “I asked He Answered”)
But, the Word is clear: “Without faith it is impossible to please Him”. Faith obtains the seemingly impossible. Faith acts! It moves forward in obedience to do what He has said: “Go into all the world and preach the Good News”. We read from Matthew that the Good News is the Good News of the Kingdom. Changing lives for His honor and esteem is our daily business!
I worked with Andrew’s “Open Doors”, going into Mainland China about forty times during 1994-1995. I met with persecuted believers. It was a life-changing experience for me. I realized that boldness, led by the Spirit, will keep doors opening. As I have said so many times, “He won’t direct a parked car”. Analyzing can be paralyzing, as Andrew said – we have to “just do it” when He lays something on our heart to do. We must always be looking for opportunities to share the Good News of Messiah’s salvation, and to disciple people in Yahuweh’s Covenant.
Warnings to get out of debt and prepare for hard times began in earnest around the late 1980s. Yahuweh’s true prophets have been warning America through their dreams, visions and prophetic words, for at least 150 years. The watchmen have faithfully been blowing the warning shofars--beginning especially in the 1990s and forward, when, President George Bush Sr. began talking openly about a “new world order”. Once we set ourselves in forward position, Yahuweh respects no just-in-case plans B or C. He has one plan for victory, and we have to fit into it if we want to succeed in battle. So many say they’ll trust Abba for healing, but just in case He doesn’t do it within their timeframe, bring in plan B: Doctor Hacknsack. (Refer to “Is There No Elohim in Israel?)
Most people that are leaving end-time Babylon now are not leaving to obey Yahuweh, but out of fear. Then they blame the watchmen if they don’t have it comfortable and easy in the third world. And, some of who have left prematurely out of fear are coming back to America, because Yahuweh didn’t come through with the goods like they thought He should have.
If a person sincerely leaves America because of Yahuweh’s command to flee, then they go back for whatever reason to stay, it is a witness to the fearful that somehow Yahuweh failed--He was not big enough to care for them. This puts paralyzing fear into the heart of those waiting to see if Yahuweh is big enough to care for those who set out ahead of them.
From the late 1980s I taught that people should liquidate their assets, rent a
Page 8
small apartment, and only buy what they need. Almost no one paid any attention. Even of late, I have encouraged people to rent a small apartment and sell everything not needed. If people had listened, they would have had plenty of money to do well in the third world.
Now some are returning to the U.S. because they’ve run out of money. But, how
did they spend the money they had? -- On a continuation of their American lifestyle? I have never lacked money to do His will! He always provides for His servants, but not according to the western cultural standards usually. I’m serious in this: If you run out of money, go to Kenya or Uganda and seek out the local believers--they’ll build a mud hut for you, or a concrete block house. They’ll feed you with rice, ugali (corn grits) or matoki (planton bananas). I’ve stayed in a lot of their jungle dwellings, and life was good. The true believers are so precious!
Then you can go on evangelistic trips with them, and see people born again!
If you’re in Yahuweh’s will there is never a reason to return to captivity.
In 722, when He had to scatter the ten tribes into all nations AMONG THE GENTILES – to keep them from destroying the pure seed of Ya’cob DNA, He sent them into captivity. In 2003, He spoke to me: “All of my people outside of My Land are in captivity”. Maybe you think that captivity in America is lovely, but it is a terrible illusion and your bubble will soon be burst.
In 1997, I almost died of malaria in a small village in northern Tanzania. But, the thought of going back to America to get medical help never once entered my mind. I was determined that if Yahushua didn’t heal me, I’d die there in peace.
When I got down to zero money and one serving of rice, I was in tears – tears of thanksgiving because I had a teaspoon of soy sauce to put on my rice. Because of my joyful thanksgiving instead of complaining, He brought in the needed help. I have lived much of my life in deep poverty. Yet, I have never been homeless and never not had food, though my food supply to feed my family has gotten down to next to zero a few times. But, in His supply I’ve seen great miracles. Trusting Him to pay big bills has brought big miracles. My faith is very high in His abilities because I’ve seen Him at work too many times over the years.
For understanding the real life of faith I recommend your reading The Autobiography of George Mueller. Here’s a man who had nothing, yet as he trusted Yahuweh, Yahuweh trusted him – and sent millions of dollars through his hands to bless millions of people.
When did Yahushua ever send out His disciples with a budget, based on their ability to get a nice job and make money, their pension, their savings, their money from the sale of their house? Huh…when? Never!
When did He ever tell them to lug suitcases full of goods from place to place?
Selling as much as possible is wisdom. Getting rid of all the sentimental idols is much wisdom. Better to get rid of things now, for since America is in the midst of a communist take over, and the government owns the banks and mortgage institutions. You really don’t own most of what you think you own. Very few have
Page 9
their houses paid off, and yet, even those who do have their house paid off are subject to having their property and house taken by the government without compensation. Obedience to the commission: “Owe no man anything but love” is going to be really sweet in the days ahead.
Very few have been tested in faith. Security is the god of most people. They do
not know that He is well able take care of every situation, if they would just let go of being led by their intellect and logic, and hear from their set-apart spirit that contacts eternity. He does not want you going round and round the mountain over and over, like they did in the wilderness for forty years because of their lack of faith. It would have taken them under two weeks to go from the Red Sea to the promised land if they had just boldly confronted the Anakim in the power of HIS MIGHT. But, they went out in their might, and fear overtook them and they failed. (Prayerfully read Numbers 13 and 14)
Trusting someone we don’t know is not all that easy—especially if we can’t see that someone with our eyes. But, Abba Yahuweh is well able to communicate and speak. I found at least forty ways in the Scriptures that He speaks to us. But, realize that He only can communicate with our re-born spirit that contacts His realm of eternity. He cannot and won’t deal with the soul/flesh realm of the intellectual mind that reasons Him away. Once a person knows Him well by faith, He speaks more, and even appears to the eyes, comforts with His Presence that is tangible, and has a sweet fragrance. He is a Person. He has a real person’s characteristics – He has a delightful personality!
He is not impressed with “ducks in a row” – the mind’s control of one’s world. Shoot the ducks and get it over with!
Messiah said (Matthew 18:1-3): “Unless you convert and become as a little
child, you cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.” A little child has no ducks in a row, and no plans B or C in case Abba fails them. They just trust!
He won’t deal with faithless displays of emotions. Have you noticed that His Presence leaves when you get angry, emotional, or cry in self-pity, “woe is me”? He won’t deal with “self pity” syndromes. He can only deal with the attributes of the children of Light—the fruit of the new created spirit—love, joy, peace, faith, humility, contriteness, gentleness, kindness, and self-control.
Romans 8:14: “For as many as are led by the Spirit of Elohim—they are the sons of Elohim”. If His Spirit leads us, can He fail us?
Boldness is a characteristic of the righteous – Proverbs 28:1: “…the righteous are as bold as a lion”. His Presence brings that boldness, with joy included!
Many think that if something bad happens to them, it is the devil attacking them. Truth is, most of the time it is someone just reaping what they sowed--and it is a test for you to learn from Him and grow up. The devil only attacks those who scare him and intimidate him because of their association with Yahuweh.
We are now entering into the greatest spiritual battle of all the ages. The tiny Gideon’s 300 remnant of Yahuweh against the world, Lucifer and his fallen
Page 10
angels. If your soul (your mind and emotions and will) is not submitted to His Spirit in your eternal re-born spirit--humble, contrite, and walking in the nature of Elohim—then you’ll be easily overcome by the enemy. Your mind is the battleground first and foremost. Submit your mind to the Spirit. Die to “self”.
Use your mind to plan and research and learn what the enemy is doing, where you are going, what you need to do, and etc. – but under the guidance of the Spirit, not under fear or stress! Remember that both Gideon and Jehoshephat won their victories over insurmountable odds by Yahuweh’s very strange methods. He has different methods for every new situation—so you have to be in tune with Him to be a winner!
He is calling a remnant that “KNOW THEIR ELOHIM” – that will be strong and do exploits—take positive action. (Daniel 11:32).
But, in all my pleading, I have to finally admit that very few are capable of getting out of America and surviving. It is a horrible let down to me to realize that after ten years of warning and pleading, how tiny His remnant really is. The remnant is taking action. Go back and re-read the quotes by Brother Andrew. If anyone has lived an exciting life, he has! He goes straight into the lion’s mouth and comes out whole. It is because He just followed the needs of Abba’s people, who are close to Abba’s heart.
Like a servant whose responsibility is to only one master, so the soldier’s
responsibility is only to their commanding officer. Family, friends, job, social or religious group, country—all are secondary responsibilities – and if one of these crosses the orders of the Master/Captain then the orders of the secondary have to give way to the mandatory orders of first-loyalty! When you sign on in Covenant with Yahushua, you get Yahuweh in the package deal. You get the privilege of obeying His Covenant teachings ad instructions of His Kingdom. You get the right to submit your life to Yahushua as Master. You get the right to die to yourself. You get the rid to pick up your own execution stake and follow Him.
Hebrews 10:35-39: “Do not, then, lose your boldness, which has great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the desire of Elohim you receive the promise: `For yet a little while -- He who is coming shall come and shall not delay’…But, the righteous shall live by faith, for if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him. But, we are not of those who draw back to destruction, but of faith, to the preserving of our life’ ”.
II Timothy 2:3-4: “Suffer hardship as a good soldier of Yahushua Messiah. No one serving as a soldier gets involved in the affairs of this life, in order to please only him who enlisted him as a soldier”.
Tragically some have left America with big intensions. They think they’re going to
get a good job overseas, set up housekeeping to their liking, and continue their Babylonian lifestyle, and if not they ain’t goin. Abba Yahuweh is our source of everything. You cannot make the locals fit your American concepts of what it

right. If you’re plumbing breaks down – fix it yourself. Otherwise, don’t get mad at the locals for take two weeks to get to your house. Learning reality outside of the box takes maturity. He has called out “whosoever will” obey. So, if you go, don’t look back. Let each test and trial mature you.
“Remember Lot’s wife! (Genesis 19; Luke 17:32) Please refer to the article: “And His Wife Looked Back”.
To look back is bad enough, but to go back is first of all spiritual destruction--for you lose what you have gained in stepping out by faith—and you’ve failed your test. Because of the time frame we’re in, failing a test could mean the end of the course. There might not be time left to re-take the test. But, if you made an F on your report card, repent! Humble yourself before Yahuweh. Don’t make excuses for your own failures. Then, as He leads, get out again and with total dependency on Him--make an A+.
He is calling a people that will “endure to the end and be delivered”. It is better to die a martyr’s death than to die as a coward! If you haven’t got what it takes to endure and overcome, stay where you are and prepare for a good entrance into His Presence.
Revelation 14:12: “Here is the endurance of the set-apart ones—those guarding the commandments of Elohim and the faith of Yahushua”. Context: The time when the anti-messiah goes after anyone who won’t worship him and receive his “mark”. There will be an overcoming, enduring remnant. But, this remnant has submitted themselves to Yahuweh’s training, teaching, discipline, testing and trial, without griping and complaining, but with determination to please their Master!
As said before: He won’t direct anyone who is not already on the move. As the cliché says: “He won’t direct a parked car”.
Have garage/yard sales. Sell what you do not absolutely need to live. Give to the poor. Get free from all entanglements of Egypt and Babylon too. When He sees your faith, THEN He will begin to direct. I wonder if Sarah had big garage sales. Abraham was called to go out. He was never called to return back to Ur.
Refer again to Hebrews 11:8-10; 13-16. Notice “dwelling in tents”! Get yourself a good tent. Get a sleeping bag, and a portable air mattress. Get some camping equipment that is lightweight and simple. Prepare for the real life of survival. Get a shovel for covering up “your business”. Get a water container with some water purifiers. Get your colloidal silver unit, rods, and essential oils. Get prepared for being on the move, or on the run.
This is no time to go to a foreign country and try to build up a big business to make money. This is not time to fool around with this world—it is dying a
horrible death. Only those who are about their Abba’s business will survive. Those engrossed in selfish business will die. It is as simple as that!
And here’s the down and dirty bottom line of it all, straight from the Apostle Peter to all of us: (II Peter 2:20-22): “For if after they have escaped the
Page 12
defilements of the world through the knowledge of the Master and Savior Yahushua Messiah, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the first. For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness than having known it to turn from the set-apart commend delivered to them. For them the proverb has proved true, `A dog returns to his own vomit…”
Yes, this applies to our salvation, but also to our actions after salvation. Once we set forward to follow Messiah, if we look back like Lot’s wife to her security of home and family, then we enter that possible realm of going all the way to perdition--spiritually, mentally, and physically.
I understand there are some reasons for coming back to America for a temporary “visit” after leaving—to be on assignment for Yahuweh to warn our families and friends. But, to do so, we’d better be “on assignment”! My friends, the door is closing quickly.
The python/anaconda spirit is over the whole land of America. The oppression is incredible. The zombie-like mindset of so many is obvious. The deceptions are incredible. Most people are in total delusion. There is a spirit that sucks the life out of a person—a hypnotic spirit that drains the spirit of man to even look at reality. There is a spirit of apathy that is overwhelming. Therefore, most will die in the coming destruction, for we are in the days of the “suddenlies”…just as they were in the days of Noah.
Isaiah 50:7-8: Written prophetically, Messiah speaking: “For Yahuweh will help Me. Therefore I shall not be confounded. Therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed”.
What kind of faith did it take for Messiah to come into this vile and filthy earth, leaving His home in heaven, leaving the companionship of His Abba, to rescue a
bunch of hell-deserving sinners? He looked down through the corridors of time and saw “the few” that would enter “the narrow gate” that leads to life. He saw a remnant that would endure and overcome, because they would trust in Him, fearing Him enough to follow Him.
All “believers” need to take serious inventory of their own lives to see if they have it in them to be His disciples, to be trained as His son, to be able to endure to the end without falling apart. Then all must do what they can to change what is out of plumb.
Don’t ever, ever, ever make a decision based on fear, logic, head-reasoning, or intellectual-concluded opinions. Never ever, ever, ever make a decision based on someone’s opinion. Get your Word from Him as your only Teacher of
rightness. Then head out in faith, fearing Him, and obeying Him, to follow wherever He leads. Don’t look back! It could lead you into eternal damnation.
Your eternal life, eternal rewards, eternal position is at stake now. Don’t submit your mind to the false flag fear tactics of the world system’s medias, or

someone’s book or DVD. Keep focused on His face and seek Him with all your heart, mind, and strength.
Do your homework—research out the practical basics of life where He is leading you to go, as Brother Andrews said. Clarity of spirit and mind united in the fear of Elohim makes one a very capable soldier of Messiah! Ignorance is NOT bliss!
But, never make decisions based on your supply of money! Some have opted to stay in a sinking ship because of their jobs. If your job stops you from following the decrees of Yahuweh, then your job is your god, not Him. If you stay in America, you’ll eventually lose your job, your home, your goods, and your life.
Very soon you will find out who is your Elohim – or your elohim. You will learn who you really are. The masks will also come off of the fakes. Prepare for a shock! Many of those who have thought of themselves to be spiritual, will be the first to fall apart. The time of the outpouring of His wrath is near. It will begin with war in the Middle East most likely, and many are sensing it will be in the Fall of 2010. We’re watching the rising of a global government and preparations to receive a global leader.
For years, He instructed me, before I taught in any meeting, to drop a plumb line and read Amos 7:7-8 out loud to those attending. About January of 2007, He said for me to now declare that we have moved into Amos 4:12 – “Prepare to meet your Elohim”. In February He instructed me that we had moved into Jeremiah 14 and 15 – “Do not pray for this people”. He said: “The rising of the tares has begun”. Finally, He gave me the instruction in Revelation 3:2: “Wake up and strengthen that which remains and is about to die…” Verse 3, Messiah speaking: “If, then, you do not wake up, I shall come upon you as a thief, and you shall not know at all what I hour I come upon you…”
We’re in the days of Noah when the “suddenlies” are upon us. Elohim is gathering His sheep into sheep folds in different places around the world. But, as for America, He is ready to pour out wrath that will destroy it totally. Prepare for whatever you choose. Make the right choices based on peace.
Shalom,
Yedidah
