Today in Jerusalem, as plans for the reconstruction of the Almighty's earthly temple are underway, so too is Yahshua working to build His spiritual temple for His near return and the establishment of His eternal kingdom. Time is of the essence; the Master Architect is going to remove all hinderances and stumbling blocks from among His people. He is going to build His holy house, His spiritual temple, according to His sovereign blueprints. Those who call Him "Savior" must know and do His perfect will. Yahveh's holy decrees and His plumb line of truth often differ from man's doctrines and religious traditions. We will either yield as living stones in the hands of the Master Builder, or we will become stumbling blocks to His divine and sovereign purposes. The Almighty says, "Build up, build up, REMOVE EVERY OBSTACLE out of the way of My people" (Isa 57:14).
May Yahshua's Spirit grant us humility and a willingness to see how far man's doctrines and "building agendas" have veered from Yahveh's original blueprints. May He impart to us an understanding of His purposes as clearly expressed through the full cousel of both the Old and New Testament Scriptures. Yahveh clearly sates, "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Neither are your ways My ways" (Isa 55:8). "Our struggle is not against flesh and blood it is against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places" . (Eph 6:12) Throughout history, Satan, the ancient Serpent (Rev 12:9), has strategized relentlessly to twart the Almighty's glorious eternal plan. We must not be" ignorant of his schemes." (2Co 2:11)

May you have eyes to see the splendor of His majesty, a receptive heart to beat with His, and an open mind to grasp His eternal purposes for all mankind - for the Jew and the Gentile alike.
