How Should we look at the Ten Commandments Today?

January 21, 2022 By Dawn Leave a Comment

How Should we look at the Ten Commandments Today?

We have grown up with the term “the ten commandments” without actually knowing what they say or if there really are just ten of them. We have been taught by our parents, the church, movies, and cartoons that God gave Israel, not us, the ten commandments.  The word commandment also has a negative connotation for […]

The Wisdom of Jethro, Moses’ Father-in-Law, Establishes a True Justice System

January 21, 2022 By Dawn Leave a Comment

Yitro – Jethro – The Wisdom of Jethro, Moses’ Father-in-Law

When we look at history we see where our present-day life originated. We can see how we’ve improved some systems like plumbing. There are others we’ve abolished like human ritual sacrifices.  One system that is the backbone to any country is their justice system. How well do they provide justice for their citizens? Are they […]

War on the Way to the Promise Land

War on the way to the promise land

Now we see why God had the children of Israel take weapons with them when they left Egypt.  On their journey to the land flowing with milk and honey, they encounter their first battle. Amalek attacks Israel. The reason isn’t given.  They meet up at Rephidim, which means, “resting places.” The Amalek attacked Israel while they […]

The Children of Israel Left Egypt in Military Style

The children of Israel left Egypt in military style

Whenever you hear the story of the Exodus or see a movie about it, the children of Israel are leaving Egypt in a chaotic way. There are masses of people trying to hurry out of Egypt before Pharoah changes his mind again.  This is not what the scriptures tell us. It says they left Egypt […]

You Can’t Challenge God and Expect to Win

After two years of dealing with COVID, we gain a whole new prospective concerning the exodus from Egypt. We are only dealing with one plague. Can you imagine dealing with ten plagues? Up to this point the Egyptians had to deal with no drinking water, being overran by frogs, lice, and flies, the devastation of […]

The Beginning of the Priesthood

The Beginning of the Priesthood

It’s easy to look back and see how God was working all along. We can see how He was setting us apart, removing people who were no longer any good for us, shutting doors we didn’t want to shut, and a host of other examples. But while going through those experiences, we could barely see […]

I Am Who I Am – Exodus 1:1-6:1

December 24, 2021 By Dawn Leave a Comment

I AM who I AM

One of the greatest debates of all time concerns God’s name and how you pronounce it. Out of this debate has grown the Sacred Name movement. Like in any movement there are many groups who believe they have the right spelling and pronunciation of God’s name.  I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this. There […]

Joseph’s story continues with him testing his brothers one last time. He has his silver drinking cup placed into Benjamin’s sack.

God Will Have His Way

Joseph was a young man when his jealous brothers threw him into a pit with the intention of selling him to the Ishmaelites. The Midianites beat them to it, and they came up with a plan to deceive their father.  Joseph ended up being a servant in Potiphar’s house until Potiphar’s wife lied on him […]

Tamar was More Righteous than Judah – Gen 39:1-30

In the middle of Joseph’s story, we are told about Judah leaving home. Why is this? Chapter 38 starts out saying, “It happened at that time…” What time? When we look back at chapter 37 verses 26-27, we see it was Judah who came up with the idea to sell Joseph to the Ishmaelites. He […]

Daily Bible Verse

For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a rousing cry, with a call from one of the ruling angels, and with God’s shofar; those who died united with the Messiah will be the first to rise; then we who are left still alive will be caught up with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and thus we will always be with the Lord. — 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

Hello, My Name is Dawn

I started this blog to encourage the people of God to seek Him first, to love Him more, to trust Him more, and to love His people without conditions and without prejudices.

There are so many people hurting that it breaks my heart. I want people to know that God loves them. He cares for them and is concerned about every aspect of their lives. This is the reason why Jesus came – to heal, to deliver, to restore, to set free, and to preach about the favor of Yahweh, our Father.
