Most of us are surrounded with people who love to talk, discuss and boast about self. The concept of self reliance, self centered egoist individual has become a trend of the modern day civilization. We also often get caught in vicious trap of self due to lack of discernment thorough Ruach ha- Kodesh. This is subtle deception of Satan to vulnerable mankind thereby leading them on fast track of disaster of sin and thereby inviting punishment from Elohim Messiah Yeshua. Some say that we are saved by accepting lord Messiah Yeshua as a Saviour, my generations are following Christ. We are member of such and such denomination, or church. We pay this much amount of donation every month. Let us meditate few verses; See now that I, I am He! There are no other gods beside Me. I bring death and give life, I have wounded but I will heal, and none can rescue from My hand.’ “Yes, I lift My hand up to heaven and say, ‘As I Myself live forever, when I sharpen My lightning sword and My hand seizes it in judgment, I will return vengeance on My foes, and those who hate Me I will pay back. I will make My arrows drunk from blood, and My sword will devour flesh—the blood of the slain and the captive, the head of the leaders of the enemy.’ Make His people rejoice, O nations, for He will avenge the blood of His servants. He will return vengeance on His foes, and atone for the land of His people.” (Deu 32:39-43)
This is the promise for the Jews and all those who are grafted through the blood of Adonai messiah Yeshua in olive tree of life. Most of us often underestimate the vengeance of Elohim Jehovah. One of the most prominent reasons is self esteem and self concept is high. The vicious cycle of self boasting has significant impact on retardation in relationship with living Elohim Messiah Yeshua. Apostle Paul has clearly explained through the revelation of Ruach ha-Kodesh (Holy Spirit) i.e. for you see your calling, brothers and sisters that not many are wise according to human standards, not many are powerful, and not many are born well. Yet God chose the foolish things of the world so He might put to shame the wise; and God chose the weak things of the world so He might put to shame the strong; and God chose the lowly and despised things of the world, the things that are as nothing, so He might bring to nothing the things that are— so that no human might boast before God. (1Co 1:26-29)
The reason we often get caught in vicious cycle of self i.e. self boasting is related to ignorance about Ruach ha-Kodesh (Holy Spirit). But as it is written, “Things no eye has seen and no ear has heard, that have not entered the heart of mankind—these things God has prepared for those who love Him.” But God revealed these things to us through the Ruach. For the Ruach searches all things—even the depths of God. For who among men knows the things of a man, except the man’s spirit within him? In the same way, no one knows the things of God except the Ruach Elohim. (1Co 2:9-11). It is very important to have personal relationship of Ruach ha –Kodesh which is the key gift given by Messiah Yeshua to the believer.
All of us have heard, read and know the birth of Yeshua. As it is written, now the birth of Yeshua the Messiah happened this way. When His mother Miriam was engaged to Joseph but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Ruach ha-Kodesh. (Mat 1:18). Without Ruach it is next to impossible in this world. Let your soul surrender to your spirit to becomes thirsty and hungry for presence of Ruach ha Kodesh. It will give birth to YESHUA the living fountain of life, the Manna from heaven. Adonai Messiah Yeshua will become most precious thing in your life. God Bless!
If you ignore the invitation of Ruach ha- Kodesh in your life,
Remember:
Adonai Messiah Yeshua has told about Final Judgement of all mankind, these shall go off to everlasting punishment, but the righteous into everlasting life.” (Mat 25:46)
And it is no longer I who live, but Messiah lives in me. And the life I now live in the body, I live by trusting in Ben-Elohim (Messiah Yeshua)—who loved me and gave Himself up for me. (Gal 2:20)
