Broken By The Good Fight


Broken By The Good Fight
This is for someone in the Valley of Decision Tonight. Choosing to Wait it Out, Wrangle it Out, Or Walk Away. 

It is better to be "Broken" by the Good Fight, than to be "Prosperous" from the Walking Away. Or to say another way....

True Shalom is found in Overcoming Suffering to continue the Mission, while Wordly "Happiness" is found in simply avoiding the Battles. One is "Soul Full" while the other is "Spirit Full", but they are often confused in the Churches.

"A Knight Still in Shining Armor is a Man Who has yet to have His Metal Truly Tested" and who wants to be in the foxhole of the Holy Life WITH that guy? Who wants to be LED by that Guy? Who wants to BE that guy?

Choose This Day whom you shall Become.

The Bowing of Wheat

The Bowing of Wheat We are all familiar with the parable of the wheat and the tares, but few understand the difference between wheat and tares.  When wheat is fully mature, when wheat becomes fruitful, it bows its head from the weight. It reproduces after its kind, bread of life. The wheat bows its head down in the presence of the one with heaven's sickle having come to harvest His own from  the earth. When a tare is fully grown, it refuses to bow its head. The tare may reproduce after its kind, but its not fruitful, in fact, everything it produces is choking out life. After I posted this note, a fb friend left this comment about physical wheat and tares as well:"Greek "Zizanion" literally means 'anti-wheat', In the Hebrew "Zownin" means "nausea." It is not a type of vetch, but a darnel; it is impossible to distinguish from the wheat, until the wheat's ear is fully developed, then the thin fruitless ear of the darnel is detected

The Olive Press

The OIlve Press Lessons from the Farming Parables of Yeshua The items used in the parables of Yeshua/Jesus make a consistent point. The Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence (endures struggle and trials) and violent men take it by force (men who are acquainted with struggle and who have endured trial bring it to earth by pushing through struggle and trial). The Scriptures tell us that before every harvest is compl ete there is a separation, as we see in the agricultural practices that produces Olive Oil for anointing, wine for marriage covenants, and bread from wheat and barley. These were produced by very violent means, sweating, muscle aching, often dangerous, dirty, unpleasant means. The harvest wasn't gathered into a checking account, it would be gathered into heaven. Those who planted earthly seeds (money) would gather an earthly harvest (more money), thus missing the reward in heaven. Every seed reproduces after its kind, if you plant money, don't expect much mo
