When Yahweh’s heaven meets our earth…
Something we have realized throughout our Kingdom walk is that, as much as we have experienced so far, Yahweh is so much more. Most people see Yahweh as a far off; limited in His ability; waiting for someone to mess up so He can punish them; elusive; or detached. To us, He has been a faithful father – generous, interested, funny, kind, and insightful. We believe that Yahweh is for us and, if allowed, wants to infuse, infiltrate and saturate us to equip us to rule and reign on this earth. He so wants us to join Him and walk out a life full of purpose. When we begin to see the magnanimous response from Yahweh to our yielding of the most basic principles, we will begin to see that His vision of redeeming the earth is not only plausible, but also overwhelmingly inevitable with committed and faithful sons.
When you think about the process of salvation – we give up just our natural life – in return – Christ comes to abide in us and all the resources of heaven by Holy Spirit are made available to us. “Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory…” Ephesians 3:20
When you think about the tithe and offering – we give our 10% (tithe) and sow our offerings. Yahweh’s measure back: “Give, and it will be given to you, good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over…” Luke 6:38 “And try Me now in this, says the Lord of Hosts, if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it.” Malachi 3:10
In every area of life, as we have yielded ourselves to Yahweh, He has so overtaken us with blessing, favor and life. We so want each reader’s faith to be increased as well as their view and estimation of who Yahweh wants to be in their life. When we begin to understand that our obedience – even in the smallest measure – is met with a more generous heavenly response, we will begin to demonstrate to this world a life abundant.

Henry and Caroline,
I don’t have enough time to tell you how this post has stirred me but it has – and deeply. Your life and testimony are an amazing sign and a wonder to Yahweh’s awesomeness in that He can accomplish amazing things with the most simplest of people who have good and honest hearts. But Holy Spirit is saying to me that there are no favorites in the Kingdom and that anything you can do, I can do too. 🙂 It’s not a competition and I definitely won’t express Yahweh’s character in retail like you have but I am and will be Yahweh’s glory on the earth. Thanks for being a sign of encouragement. You guys are mighty, missed and loved.
