The true Furqan

It's been a while since I have written. Praise be to Yahweh for all His blessings, for sustaining, protecting and keeping me His. There have been trials and weakness but Praise Him, He is good. He is God and by the blood of Yeshua, who is Supreme over all, I am fine :)
A couple of years ago someone told me about the book "The true Furqan". Furqan in arabic means "The criterion one" or something of that sort. Two arab muslims who by the grace of God and the Messiah Yeshua, came to know the true God and wrote this book which is the good news of Jesus Christ or Isa al Masih as they would say in an arabic Quranic style and it's absolutely brilliant. Here's the opening blessing from it.
The Blessing
(Al Basmalah)
1. Say in the name of the Father, the Word, the Holy Spirit, the One and Only true God.
2. He is Triune in Unity, united in Trinity, indivisible as Deity.
3. He is the Father who has never given birth like the race of humanity
4. He is the Word who has never been born except through virginity
5. He is the Spirit who has never been seperated from the Trinity
6. He is the Creator who has never been created by any entity
7. Therefore ceaseless praise is offered to His regal sovereignty. Absolute power and royal majesty is extended unto Him, from eternity to infinity.
AMEN!

why do i beleive in Him?

This morning, I was thinking of what Jesus said, “If you love Me, you will keep my commandments” and for the first time I thought that sounded a bit conditional and a bit wrong. Like when a boyfriend says, “If you love me, you’ll watch this game with me” or so on. But then, I didn’t think deep, I didn’t think much. This is JESUS who said this. The same Jesus who loved us so unconditionally that He, the perfect, spotless Lamb was willing to undergo a sacrifice no man can fathom. He could have said no, He could have stayed in Heaven and been all that He was and is. But He didn’t, because while you and I were still sinners, He looked on us with mercy and compassion. He was willing to come down, to step down, to intervene for our sakes, so that we may enjoy a life with Him, So that we may have everlasting life, Sounds too good to be true, huh? He was willing to take on flesh. He was willing to be mocked, rejected, crucified and killed. When I think of that, I’m like wow that must be something! I mean, when do you hear of someone who’s willing to die for the sins of others? Willing to take all the shame? All the blame? Never! When was the last time you heard of a God so faithful and true? Who, even when you are faithless and sinful, is still faithful? Never! Almost every other week, I feel useless and awful because I would have done something or the other that I know would have displeased this great mighty and awesome God. And all I can do is cry. I sometimes feel unworthy of even asking His forgiveness. I feel exactly like what Paul said as being the “chief of sinners”. And I’m like Paul cannot be that, cause that’s me! And all I can do is cry. All I can say is sorry. I’m sorry Lord, forgive me if it’s Your will. And I can hear Him say, “you’re not holding onto Me, but I am holding onto you”. How great is our God! I don’t think any other thing/being can offer me this sense of peace and love and security. There can be only one God, there can be only one supreme being. Only one Mighty power. The one who created the heavens and the earth and all that’s within. The one who holds the universe. The one who is so powerful and so majestic, the seas roar at His name and the mountains will bow down in awe of Him. But He chose to be nothing for me. He chose to walk down that road for me, to be persecuted for my sake. How can I not give Him the praise He alone so rightly deserves? How can I not be His?
My prayer is that I know Him more. That I am willing to do anything for Him just like how He was willing to do that for me.

please Jesus

30.12.07
I constantly fall. I keep giving in to my flesh. Please help me. Please forgive me. I need You. I need You always, even when I think I don’t. Please hold on to me. Please call me Your child. Abba Father, I love you and want to be cleansed with the blood of Jesus. You have showed me that the only way to resist evil is by the blood of Yeshua. Cover me with Your blood. Help me be strong for You. Help me be a light to the nations for You. Let me forever live for Your glory. Please please forgive me. Please say it’s ok. Please don’t let me go. Please don’t let the things of flesh affect me. Help me walk in Your ways. Help me follow Your paths. Please.

04.02.08
How can we say we are Yours, when we don’t act like it? How can we call ourselves Christian when our actions would please satan? Why are we like this? Please cleanse us. Please forgive us. Cover us with Your blood. Why are we living in regret? Why can’t we be new in You? Oh Lord, please please I beg, I beg You, please make things right! I grovel at Your throne, help us. Only YOU, ONLY YOU can save us, please save us Jesus. Please Jesus. Please Jesus. In all times, let me praise You God. Please Lord, let us not fight. How can we expect You to listen to us when we have no unity among us? PLEASE I pray, let us be patient and wait upon YOU. You are the Lord God, You will not shame us. Let us know that and be happy. FATHER, I ask in the name of my Savior JESUS, hear my prayers. Amen

Who is HE?

He laughed, He wept, He felt their pain,
2000 years ago, Gabriel proclaimed His name.
Yet He was before our father Abraham,
He is none but the great I AM.
He washed their feet, He was there.
He took on flesh to show His care.
He looked unto the heavens and gave up His life
Only because He wanted to take away my strife.

Who is He?
He is more than just a Man.
He is more than just a Prophet.
He is more than just a Teacher.
He is greater than any King.
He is the Lord.
He is my God.

It had to have happen, He had to have died
For before He was born, they prophesized.
But He overcame death on the third day
This is because He didn’t want me to go astray.
Now and forever He reigns, He rules, He is the Messiah.
He is the Alpha, the Omega, my Jehovah Jireh.
He is the risen Lamb, He is the Son.
With the Father and Spirit, He is One.

He is my Saving Grace,
He is my Everything.
He is my friend, my King.
He is the Lord.
He is my God.

You are who You are

YOU ARE WHO YOU ARE- wonder where that came from?
I was listening to this song called "Praise You in this storm" by Casting crowns which talks about how we must praise God no matter what we're going through because of WHO HE IS. There's this line that goes " You are who You are, no matter where I am". And I was just thinking how most of the time we (or I anyway) praise God when something is going great but when things aren't that great i'm just like "Oh God, why me? Please help me, don't let me fail". I don't give Him the praise He alone deserves at all times. I need to praise Him always. Because of not who i am or what i've done or because of what He has done but because of WHO HE IS!

13Moses said to God, "Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, 'The God of your fathers has sent me to you,' and they ask me, 'What is his name?' Then what shall I tell them?"
14 God said to Moses, "I am who I am . This is what you are to say to the Israelites: 'I AM has sent me to you.' "
15 God also said to Moses, "Say to the Israelites, 'The LORD, the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob—has sent me to you.' This is my name forever, the name by which I am to be remembered from generation to generation. Exodus 3


Abba Father, help me to always lift Your name on High and when i'm in the middle of the storm, to remember WHO YOU ARE and praise You with all that i am. You are and always will be the great I AM. You deserve all glory, honor, praise and thanks. In the name of Jesus my Savior, AMEN!

Lyrics for Praise You in this storm.
I was sure by now,God, that You would have reached down and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen and it's still raining
as the thunder rolls I barely hear You whisper through the rain, "I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls I raise my hands and praise the God who gives and takes away.
Chorus: And I'll praise you in this storm and I will lift my hands for You are who You are no matter where I am and every tear I've cried You hold in your hand You never left my side and though my heart is torn I will praise You in this storm
I remember when I stumbled in the wind You heard my cry to Youand raised me up again
my strength is almost gone how can I carry on if I can't find You
and as the thunder rolls I barely hear You whisper through the rain "I'm with you"and as Your mercy falls I raise my hands and praise the God who gives and takes away
Chorus
I lift my eyes onto the hills where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth I lift my eyes onto the hills where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth

Lead me

Lead me in the narrow path.
Let me not evoke Your wrath.
Lead me on, set me free
Open my heart let me see.
Let me not go astray
Let me not give into temptation
Let me walk Your narrow path.

For You are and will be my goal,
Ever since the day You saved my soul.
You are my only destination
For it has been ever since creation.
Please please, I beg, I pray
Cleanse me, restore me O Yahweh.
Abba Father It is You, it’s always You.
Yeshua Yeshua, Please take me back to You.

Sometimes I feel I do not need You
But I could not have been farther from the Truth.
I walk away, I turn my face
But I do not think what would happen if You did the same.
I am foolish, by flesh I am sometimes led
But how Oh Yahweh, how was it for me You bled?
I cannot fathom so please let me walk Your narrow path.

You are my Father, I turn to You
You are my Father, I love You
You are my King, I bow down to You
You are my King, I give my all to You
You are my God, I worship You
You are my God, let me follow You.

Yeshua Yeshua, HaMashiah
Jesus my Savior
Yeshua Malkeynu
Jesus my King!

From dust

I am from dust. Created and breathed life into by the Eternal Supreme Almighty. By His grace, I am now an heir to His everlasting Kingdom. Through the blood which His Son Yeshua shed, I am now His child. To Him alone be ceaseless praise, honor and glory.
