The Virtues of YAHshua

THE VIRTUE OF YAHshua, intended to cause you to focus on Him and not on self, although one cannot effectively change unless self-focus is noted for the express purpose of changing. Far too many focus on self for the express purpose of comparing self with others. In this focus self begins to compete with others as their direction in life. If one will only focus on Messiah, the sense of competition can removed and spiritual growth becomes possible. This message brings focus to YAHshua in the hopes that some of you will come to the place of change in Him and cease trying to do something in/by yourself. As I review programs on some of the spiritual networks, I witness more and more those messages that focus on self and its possible gains rather than upon YAHshua and what He has already gained for us. There is a thin line between truth and error and the balance towards truth must be maintained with faith and integrity, or virtue. Compromise is a deadly thing for a believer. YAHshua never compromised His spiritual integrity choosing rather to begin and end each day in prayer and purposes of His Father.

2. What is it about the life of YAHshua that makes Him who He is? What is it about human life that makes it human, that is, one remains in their human state rather than advancing into their place of calling in the Holy Spirit? What is the difference? Note the following comparisons.

  If one has any spiritual insight at all, they will see that the workings of the Holy Spirit offer the same lifestyle to believers as is seen in YAHshua. There is no comparison between a carnal life and a spiritual life. The level of comparison each need to face is between their life and the life of Messiah. If the Holy Spirit offers the same spiritual life to believers (of course there is only one Messiah, yet believers are called to be His witnesses) where are today’s results of a true spiritual life? Most now gauge the success of their spiritual life in terms of what YAHveh provides as a result of their faithfulness. This is noted in material gain and not in service to the Messiah. Where are the miracles, the anointing, the direction, the purpose of YAHshua in and through the life of believers? If He has given us all that is needed for life and ministry, where are the individual and daily results? LISTEN! YAHveh has no intention of bringing your carnal life to a new spiritual dimension so your thoughts and personal integrity are watered.

 1. THE VIRTUE OF YAHshua. I note here that YAHshua has many spiritual characteristics. Anyone of them make Him who He is. He is a man of faith, knowledge, purpose, perseverance, love, brotherly kindness, self-control, godliness, and virtue. Anyone of these traits is at least a six-part teaching series to the Church. Messiah is the substance of faith for all of mankind and while on earth He demonstrated the life of faith that is pleasing to YAHveh. His life was not without turmoil, confrontations, disappointments, unmet expectations, and yet, none of the negative was strong enough to overcome His hunger and thirst to remain spiritually positive in the face of all that came against Him. He is uniquely tied to heavenly Father in being seeded by the Holy Ghost and He is uniquely tied to mankind by being birthed through the womb of a woman on earth and subsequently raised by Joseph and Mary. His life on earth gives clear image to the shadows of the Old Testament bringing to the foreground in our times the fulfillment of prophecy and purpose of YAHveh to whosoever will. YAHshua has many purposes on earth during His ministry, all which may be summed in His prayer recorded in John 17 where He intercedes for Himself, for His disciples with Him at that time, then for all believers.
