Are you Covered? by Shea Brewer
I have this island in my front yard that has been a challenge to rid it of wild grasses and weeds. We put this black paper down and then put heavy mulch on top it. It looks far better than it did before but these little creeping weeds keep popping back up. So often I go out there and pull a few. Sometimes when I pull the weed, I can’t get to the root. I just know that that ugly weed is going to pop up again and I’ll be out there having to clean up that mess again until I get that silly root. So one morning, I’m doing…

Always At War, Never Let Defenses Down by Shea Brewer
We are at war, we cannot miss a beat praying over our families, homes, cars, friends, finances, health and ministry work. We must be deliberate with our prayers. I almost always pray out loud so the spiritual realm hears. Also because I do not want the enemy to sidetrack me with strange thoughts during silent prayers. When I used to pray quietly, I would think Thank you God…then next thought ” I need to go to the grocery store.” Everyday our spirits need what I call a Spiritual Car Wash, which is when we humble ourselves before our King, repenting of bad thoughts and bad actions. We all sin daily, even if it’s unintentional. We should thank the Father for his son and the grace he shows…

Newness by Shea Brewer
For a few weeks, I’ve noticed my basil plant didn’t seem to like where it was planted. The leaves were burned and limp. Even Steve mentioned how sad Basil looked. I knew Mr. Basil needed to be moved. I just kept putting it off partly out of pure laziness but mostly because I was just ignoring the problem. I was kind of waiting to see if the shock from going from inside to outside would pass, wishfully thinking he’ll spring back on his own. I finally made the decision that I needed to help a Basil friend out. So I decided to move him to a more suitable location with less light. After replanting, I trimmed…

Farming a Dying Art By Shea Brewer
This morning, I was plucking weeds out of my garden, watering the seeds and my new baby plants. With the birds chirping, the cool breeze on my face, barefoot and still in my PJ’s, I was quiet enough to hear Abba. Questions popped into my mind in the stillness of he morning as I bent over to pull weeds and to water: Have you wondered why so much of my teachings pertain to seeds, trees, plants, roots and vines? Do you see when you pull those weeds up you must be slow and precise or else the root will stay and appear again? I sprayed off my dirty feet and hands, and came…

Tempted First By Food, Still Tempted.
The Essene Gospel of Peace, said to be found in Aramaic was a hidden treasure found in the Vatican library. I can only imagine what other secrets or blanks could be filled in if we were to read all the scrolls and books found the Vatican’s library shelves that stretch over 31 miles. The Essene Gospel of Peace is a remarkable lost book that seems to be Jesus speaking to the masses about why we get sick, and how we can be healed. He teaches the crowd what to eat, what to avoid, how to cook or rather not cook, how to fast and how they can prevent illness. Yahusha ( Jesus) teaches…

Pride Blocks the Humility of A Born Again Experience
Our pride gets in the way so much from living peacefully. If we spent more time reflecting on our own short comings, instead of pointing at people or blaming family, friends, events; we would truly find peace in all situations. Did the Father not bring us through the battles, the tough times for a greater purpose? Was He not there the entire time holding our hand, helping us through? Often what holds us back is the spirit of pride which blocks the humility of a born again experience. Clemens Alexandrinus called Clement was a follower of Peter. He traveled with Peter after being introduced by Barnabus who you remember in our bibles. Clement tells us that ” The…

Whose Your Daddy?
How could a precious child of God go down in defeat? If we completely trust the Heavenly Father and deny our own personal will, then defeat is not an option. We cannot live a moment in defeat when Jesus the son of God intercedes for us. If we feel attacked or defeated, we could be listening or letting the wrong Daddy, the Father of Lies as Jesus called him, influence our lives. The great news is that we all have a much nicer, kinder adopted Daddy waiting on us. The enemy has a big picture goal. His ultimate plan is to take you off God’s divine plan for your life. He does not want your will to be united with…

There is Nothing Dead About Dead Sea Scrolls….Perhaps, the Rest of the Story!
I was recently at a Spirit filled event where the Pastor brought in guest speakers. I have been going to these events hoping that the Father will speak to me giving me clarification on all the research and studying I have been doing. On many occassions, I’m awaken early in morning, yeah like 5am with pressing questions. Then, I open the computer and that question leads me down a path where more truth is revealed. He gives me one crumb at a time, and it keeps leading me to more revelation. I sat there in the church and listened to this Pastor. After much prayer, petition and research, I believed this Pastor to be in the dark on…

Holy Spirit, What Would You Like to Tell Me today?
I wanted to show you what came from my quiet time with the Spirit of Truth this morning. We are to spend more time listening. So this morning, I put on my harp music, grabbed my herbal coffee, pen, paper and the thoughts rolled in. Good Morning Father, Good morning Yeshua. Thank you Holy Spirit for this day. I praise you for your presence. I know you said you would never leave me; you would always be with me. I long to hear from you; to feel your ever loving presence. Quiet my mind. What would you like to tell me today? Like water rolling over a rough stone, I round the edges of…

What We Should Be Doing Now…Preparing
While finishing up Daniel today a few verses really stuck out about end of times: 12: 3″ And those who have insight shall shine like the brightness of the expanse, and those who lead many to righteousness like the stars forever and ever. “ Thoughts: Many people are being called out to go on a search for real truth so that during the end of times; they can be used to give insight to the lost. We must pray for insight now that the Father can use us. We will be vital to sharing the importance of repentance, salvation and walking in real truth. So many sweet people have been blinded by deception…
