Shabbat July 27th

Shalom! 

This is a very significant and dangerous time on the Hebrew calendar. It is the time between the 17th of Tammuz and the 9th of Av known as “Bein haMetzarim” or “between the straits”. Historically, not a good time for Israel, but a time of mourning that commemorates the destruction of the 1st and 2nd temples in Jerusalem, many catastrophic and evil events in Her history, and even the rebellion of the ten spies and the Israelites refusing to go into the Promised Land. Lamentations 1:3 says, “Judah is gone into exile under affliction and great servitude. She dwells among the nations. She finds no resting peace. All her pursuers have overtaken her in the MIDST OF HER DISTRESS.” As defined today: "being in a very dangerous situation and one in which it may be hard to discern the safe way through.” We have all been in those places before, and today, the nation of Israel finds herself there. Yesterday, I watched the Prime Minister of Israel deliver an incredibly passionate and factual speech before our US Congress, while protesters were outside chanting "death to Israel” while carrying terrorist flags and burning our own flag! These are “dire straits” for Israel as well as our own nation! Time to “ramp up” our intercession, but also to focus on our Righteous Judge and the King of Kings, who WILL have the final word! Also, I want to remind all of us of the consoling words of Yeshua, “These things I have spoken to you, so that IN ME you may have SHALOM. In the world you will have trouble, but TAKE HEART! I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD!”

This Shabbat July 27th we will as usual be meeting at The Dwelling Place at 11am! Come on out and join us for inspiring teaching from Torah and the Tanach, live worship with Vanessa Remley and wonderful fellowship! Our address is 16800 W.9th Ave. Golden, 80401. The Lord has put a message on my heart for this week entitled Contagious hypocrisy! We are continuing to look at THE AWE OF GOD and exploring how we grow in our walk of Holy Fear. Yes, God does look beyond our actions and our words, but deep into our hearts to our thoughts and motives. So come on out and celebrate this special day together, AND WE WILL HAVE A POTLUCK ONEG FOLLOWING THE SERVICE SO BRING A DISH TO SHARE! We will be back to having our live feed this Shabbat after being “off-line” the last few weeks! However, we would love to see your faces!
