A FRIEND AT ALL TIMES, PART 2
Sleepwalking through life is a sin; it's slothful. Sleeping while God's people and the gentiles suffer, who once looked to you for something you didn’t know you possessed, begets misery. You were spiritually blind with a rebellious heart. God is hard on those He's blessed with much, notwithstanding. Those who were jealous of that anointing didn’t sacrifice or endure what the Most High is building inside of you. The odd thing is they became agents for the devil and worked against the very Spirit they wanted that the Father placed inside all because they were nearsighted. They weren't without fault, but who of us is perfect? The effects of their actions and my inactions affected us for generations until the Most High showed me a friend who loves unconditionally in the midst of being stuck in a lion's den. He’ll walk the last step with me until I face whatever alone. His job is done. I pray for the strength to endure until the end. Friends like him are rare. Never blame the shameless for having poor discretion. People are flesh and privy to harming others without holding themselves accountable. Correction can be a grizzly bear, but it's better than being hardhearted and living blind for over 1/2 a century. When the Bible says, {Micah 7:5 Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom}. The one man I should've trusted I rebuked, besmirched, and disgraced, yet he uttered these words to me almost 20yrs ago this day: “Son, come home.” We all fall short of the glory of the Father. I have faith in Him, but I lacked the perfected faith that should have put us over the threshold of oppression and apartheid. History's proven some people will never accept us. Out of all the earth's tribes, some who individually hate us will be grafted in with Yisrael. Their hearts won’t be stone; they’ll become flesh. The gentile claimed the root of Abraham was created specifically to branch in them, forgetting that Yisrael is the root. Arrogance and pride lifted their hearts. Yisrael is to graft in those who bow down to the Father. Gentiles are considered to be a base, unholy people. You have a friend in Yahusha; we were never your enemy.
Romans 11:17-24
17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert grafted in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.
20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.
22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.
24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree? Continue—
