The characteristics of a Friend of Yah

Recognizing a Friend of Yah

By

Dr James A Robertson

Following on from my article “About REAL service to the Almighty in this age – what REALLY matters” in which I made the assertion that the only thing that REALLY matters in this life is that YOU become a Friend of Yah because that is the SOLE reason for which we were created, I thought it would be helpful to share my understanding of the attributes of a Friend.  I do this based on my experience in reaching the place where Father calls me “Friend” with the specific goal of challenging YOU to go all out to achieve that standing yourself.

The following sections list the major components whereby you will know that you are a Friend of Yah AND in which you will be challenged to overcome and achieve mastery in order to reach the standing of “Friend”.  Understand that this is a challenging and tough journey but ONCE you have a fix on what it means to Yah and to you for eternity, I am sure you will take this on board and GO FOR IT J

So, what ARE the attributes of a Friend of Yah?

1. Yah has told you clearly you are His Friend and you converse with Him regularly

You are NOT a Friend UNTIL Father has clearly called you Friend, no matter how much you aspire to that standing.

You hear Him clearly.

You are in regular dialogue with Him.

He shares His deepest secrets with you including His weaknesses and His pain and asks your opinion.

You discuss and debate things.

You have come to terms with the reality that He does NOT know everything and that He is learning as we learn and as the sorry state of the battle with the Satanic and Demonic realm continuous to unfold.

He tells you things that others do not believe He would say.

In fact, you know so much about Him and His ways that very few others know that most believers reject you as being in deep error and you have come to terms with that because you are SO sure you heard your Daddy and Friend say that.

You constantly ask His guidance, His opinion, His favour, etc in all that you do.

2. You are deeply filled with His Spirit, worship constantly and fast regularly

You worship regularly, at least a few hours a week, preferably an hour or more daily.

You have narrowed your worship down to a handful of more or less acceptable songs such as those at http://end-time-issueministries.org/Home/RecommendedWorship.aspx.html and have come to understand that the vast majority of popular worship songs and hymns are, at best, meaningless and a total waste of time and, at worst, grossly blasphemous and insulting and hurtful to our Father in Heaven.

Even within those songs with acceptable overall theme you have come to realize that there are words and references that are unpleasant for Father and, because He is your DEAR Daddy and Friend and you care you have edited the songs to remove those words and phrases.The songs at the link above have been so edited.

You play those songs at every possible opportunity, you have a Hi Fi with only those songs set to repeat and that you turn it on when you awake and turn it off when you go to sleep.You have speakers throughout your dwelling.You play those songs in the car and you have them on your mobile phone and listen with headphones when you are in public places or even in work situations where you cannot play the songs out loud.

The songs have meaningful and powerful words and you sing along with them at every possible opportunity with the result that you have powerfully called the principles, concepts and requests embodied in those songs into existence in your life.

If you have NOT downloaded the songs at the link above I suggest you do so now.If you are unable to access the zip file then email me and I will post a CD to you.

Through your active worship, through requesting the infilling of Father’s Spirit regularly, through what you pray and do, you have been significantly filled with Father’s Spirit and constantly seek to be filled more and more and again and again.

You have probably, through mistakes you have made and through events in your life, lost a significant amount of that infilling in different ways but you have actively worked at regaining it when you have lost it and are intensely seeking to prevent yourself losing it again.

During your worship you have repeatedly invited Yah to dwell in your dwelling, to come aside and rest awhile and you therefore make an effort to keep at least the room where you play the worship songs (bedroom in my case) reasonably tidy as a mark of respect for your guest.

You fast regularly, at the very least a three day fast over Halloween and Christmas and preferably a series of three day fasts at weekly intervals starting over Halloween and ending over Christmas.If you desire to move in the power gifts you have undertaken at least one forty day water only fast.You also remember and rehearse the covenant through Yahooshua at regular intervals.

3. You are deeply committed to seeking ALL truth NO MATTER what it costs you and stringently observe ALL the Commandments

If you claim to love Yah and yet are NOT deeply committed to seeking ALL truth you are a charlatan and a fraud.Yah IS truth, Satan is the father of ALL lies so, to the extent that you believe even the smallest lie or propagate or adhere to even the smallest lie you are a child and servant of Satan and you make it very difficult to for Yah to draw close to you.

If you are holding on to using names like “God”, “the LORD”, “Jesus”, etc, if you are worshipping Jesus as God, if you hold the Bible to be anything other than a collection of writings by humans in a book, you are a FRAUD if you claim to love Yah.

You pray regularly “Father show me the level of my present deception and how to correct it”, “lead me into ALL truth by your Spirit”, “judge me severely and correct me harshly that I may serve you more perfectly” and similar prayers and you are responsive to their outworking in your life.

You pray, “Father, if I am NOT hearing you on anything please speak to me in whatever way I am able to hear, through other people, emails, websites, newspapers, CD’s … ANY way that I am able to hear and understand.“Discipline me harshly if I get into pride or other error and sin, humble me and cloak me in humility”.

You are DEEPLY committed to seeking all truth and you respond immediately you have the slightest indication that you are in error and course correct with deep repentance immediately.

You are FAR beyond the lie that “Daddy God is a God of love and He does not mind” and similar abhorrent rationalizations!

As a specific extension of this point you STRINGENTLY observe ALL the Commandments, including the little ones like not eating Pork, etc.

You worship ONLY Yah, NOT Jesus – you understand that Yahooshua was and is a man, a created being and, while you esteem him as King of human Kings you worship Yah ALONE.

You have NO idols, including but NOT limited to you recognize the Bible as a useful reference work for information, NO MORE than that.You respect the Quran and other books written by anointed servants in a similar manner as sources of learning that can help you to draw closer to Yah and be more obedient but you recognize that at ALL TIMES YOU, personally, are accountable for sifting the wheat from the tares, the grain from the chaff, the silver from the dross, etc.

You do NOT take the Name of Yah in vain.You do NOT call Him “God”, or “the LORD” or any other common name, you use only His true Name “Yah”, “Yah the eternally self-existing”, “the Almighty”, “Father”, “Daddy” and related words.You MAY use “Yahooeh” or “Yahweh” at a stretch where, in worship, it fits better as a substitute for wrong words.You have long since got rid of any “Yahoo.com” and related emails, groups, etc and you have cleaned up your life generally.You do NOT use “Ja” or “Jah” or other derivative word for “yes” and so on.

You strictly observe Saturday from sunrise to sunrise as a set apart {holy} Sabbath and you strictly observe the High Sabbaths being Passover, Pentecost, the Day of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement and the first and last days of the Feast of Tabernacles.

And you have your facts right regarding the rest of the Commandments and observe them stringently see http://end-time-issueministries.org/Commandments.aspx.html

If you are reading this and thinking things like “Jesus died so I do not have to worry about these things” or similar nonsense, then I have to tell you that you are FAR from deep relationship with Yah!

Just because Yah responds to you and your prayers is a function of His Covenant obligations towards you NOT an indication of approval of your gross error!

4. You live a highly separated {holy} life and have suffered much loss and have probably divorced several times

You live a highly separated (set-apart {holy}) life.

The statement “in this world but NOT of this world” has DEEP meaning to you because that is REALLY how you live your life.The unbelievers do not understand you at all and so, while you have to transact with them out of necessity you do NOT waste time talking to them about the things of Yah unless He leads you.In fact, you only discuss the matters of Yah with believers who show real signs of seeking to draw close and which Father prompts you to speak to.

You have come to terms with the reality that Father is NOT interested in sterile evangelism that brings more people into line for the Outer Darkness, right now He is ONLY interested in those believers who are showing a real DESIRE to draw closer to Him.The rest are a lost cause and a source of great grief and displeasure to Him.

So, YOU may be concerned about friends and close family that do not know Him or who have believed but are indifferent towards Him but He is ONLY concerned to the extent that you have shared your concern with Him.If it were left to Him right now He would focus ALL His attention and ALL YOUR attention on the few thousand people who are making a REAL effort to draw closer to Him and less attention on those who have the potential to make it into the ranks of those seeking deep relationship.

In the process of getting to the point of being Yah’s friend you have almost certainly suffered great loss.Once you start making a real effort to draw close to Yah the forces of darkness focus on you intensely and they WILL do everything they can to lead you astray and destroy you.

They will seek to kill, steal and destroy in your life and seek judgment against you at every opportunity, see the articles on “Judgement in this life” at:

 http://end-time-issueministries.org/JudgmentTHISLife.aspx.html

It is vital to understand that if you are suffering loss in ANY area it is because of sin in your house, right down to the level of spiritual division between man and woman resulting in a divided house.

It is only by living a life FREE OF SIN that you have any hope of fully accomplishing your purpose and walking in victory in this life.

You may be employed as an employee, particularly if you are a single woman, but, if you are a man you will probably have your own business and ministry in some shape or form.In the case of single women who have prayed the appropriate prayers, Yah is your husband and provider and He may also take you into your own ministry with supernatural provision IF you get to the point where you have the emunah {faith} for that.

Having your own source of income puts you in a position where judgement can very quickly impact your finances and get your attention and this is highly desirable.

One way or another you will devote significant time every week to your service of Yah in whatever He calls you to do but understand that what He calls you to do will NOT conform to the teachings of the Christian Church, Muslim Imams or Jewish Rabbi’s.You will have come to understand that the TRUE religion is an interpolation between what those three main religions are teaching and with Father’s help you will have sifted the truth from the lies in all the different groupings.

You will probably have been thrown out of Churches / Mosques or Synagogues because of what you believe.

If you once had promiscuous sexual relations you will long ago have realized the folly of that, cut the wrong relationships and turned to Yah to help you clean up.In this process you will have come to realize that most of what is believed and taught is in error.

In particular you will have come to understand that Yah intended us to live in life long sexual covenant where one man has more than one woman but that, in many societies today, this is extremely difficult to do and in Western (European) society it is effectively impossible, the women cannot handle it psychologically after centuries of demonically inspired mental programming.

Whether man or woman, if you were joined to an unbeliever you divorced them years ago realizing that since the Spirit of Yah dwells in you and you are one with the unbeliever it is an abomination to Yah.

If you were joined to one who was a weak believer and showed no interest in your passion and commitment towards Yah you are likely to have divorced them and if you have NOT then I must tell you now that Yah EXPECTS you to divorce.

If you have joined yourself to a committed believer and that person is getting in the way of your walk with Father for ANY reason then know that Yah expects you to inform them of the problem and if they do NOT respond constructively on a sustained basis Yah expects you to DIVORCE them.

In this process you may well lose your children, your friends and most of your family!

Yah hates divorce because of the trauma that it causes but He hates His bond servants and friends allowing ANY other human being to get in the way of their relationship with Him MUCH MORE.

If you are a woman, recognize that there are roughly seven times more women than men in the body of true believers, see the information at:

        http://end-time-issueministries.org/SingleWomenbelievers7xmen.aspx.html

for a discussion of this.Inherently this means that you are VERY unlikely to find a suitable man and therefore, Father will expect you to remain single unless you are one of those who truly has found a man more committed to Yah than yourself.

If you are a man, realize that most of the suitable women are joined to unsuitable men so the choices are limited and you must screen candidates carefully.Know also that even those who appear suitable mostly battle to align and be in submission and are therefore unsuitable.Do NOT be surprised if Father repeatedly tells you to divorce because the woman you are joined to is getting in the way of your calling to serve Yah.

5. You have spent many years seeking to draw close to Yah – I am here to help you

As should be apparent from the preceding points, reaching the position of Friend of Yah takes years of intense effort, seeking, worshipping, etc.

I have gone before and charted the course, the first person to reach that position in many years.My writings and my counsel are there to help you advance along this road much faster than I did.Father first called me Friend nine years after making an intense commitment to Him and, because I was the first in this age and no-one else was close, Father was merciful in the criteria that He applied.Today, you have my example and my teachings and therefore, while on the one hand the knowledge is there to help you on the other hand Father intends to be more exacting in who He accepts.

If your relationship with Father means anything to you I deeply encourage YOU to pull out all the stops, worship daily, set yourself apart, read all of my writings, pray constantly, etc.

Incidentally, it IS possible to “pray in the spirit without ceasing” – ask Father to give you this gift and to train your spirit to do this.

If you decide today to seek to be Yah’s friend, do so knowing that the reward is massive, the throne’s on Yahooshua’s left hand and right hand are still vacant and are STILL available to be won by any of those alive today or who will live in the remaining days of these last days.I strongly encourage you to GO FOR IT!

6.  You understand the battle and have and continue to wage war constantly, the forces of darkness fear you, hate you and want to destroy you

In all of this you will have a deep realization of the powers and ways of working of the Satanic (messengers {angelic}) realm, the Demonic realm (ancestor spirits – spirits of all humans who have died without ever believing in Yah) and the current human realm (Witches, Satanists, etc – the Illuminated ones) and you will be waging war in the spiritual realm.

Firstly you will need to battle to get free of the demons that are oppressing you and cut off all blood line curses, etc.This will require you to clean up your act, comply with ALL the commandments and do what needs to be done to get free, see the article on “Seven Components in Growing Close to Yah” for more information:

http://end-time-issueministries.org/Home/7ComponentsinGrowingClosetoYah.aspx.html

You will benefit from receiving ministry from other anointed believers, IF you can make contact with them but Yah is able to help you to obtain deliverance yourself if you draw close enough to Him.This is a big topic and there is currently NOT much documentation that I am aware of.

You will also start to wage spiritual war against demons and fallen messengers in your immediate surroundings and, as Father leads, in the broader area where you live and the world at large.There is a huge amount of work to be done and, until you have seriously cleaned up your own act, you are largely ineffective – as long as you believe and propagate lies and false doctrines you are a servant of Satan and have little or no authority in the Satanic and Demonic realm let alone with the illuminated human beings who are our direct enemies.

Realize that once you start to move forward significantly in drawing close to Father the Satanic and Demonic realm WILL pay CLOSE attention to you and do ALL in their power to lead you astray and destroy you.

Realize also that ONCE you have reached the point of being without sin they cannot touch you but realize that sin, right down to the level of a divided house, WILL cause you to suffer loss.

This is part of the battle, you will have to overcome, deal with your sin again and again until you come to the place of habitual life without sin.Man, if your woman cannot come into deep and consistent alignment realize that you will have to divorce her and realize that finding another is fraught with challenges and you will ONLY find out if a woman can last the pace once you are one with her and have lived together for some time – it can be EXTREMELY painful!

Be aware that it is difficult for a man to live without a woman unless he is willing to live in very straightened circumstances.

7. You are deeply committed to helping other believers draw close to Yah

As you draw closer to Yah and realize His deep grief and deep loneliness with the minute number of people who are really seeking to draw close to Him you will find that it becomes more and more important to you to draw close to Him AND to help others to draw close to Him.

Thus, once you have taken a quality, no going back, decision to serve Yah faithfully, to overcome ALL that comes against you and all sin and error and to strive to become Yah’s Friend you will find that you increasingly become concerned about Father’s desire to have Friends and you will start to share this passion with others that come across your path who are potential Friends.

Conclusion

To sum up, fundamentally you are deeply committed to serving Yah and overcoming to the end and to drawing close to Him.  Given the length of the journey you may find that once you have set out purposefully and are making steady progress, Father may call you “Friend” long before you accomplish all that is set out above.  That is His prerogative.

After reading this article I strongly recommend that you read:

“The Creator Desires a Deep Personal Relationship with YOU” at:

                http://end-time-issueministries.org/Home/CreatorDesiresDeepRelationship.aspx.html

and “Seven Components in Growing Close to Yah” at:

                http://end-time-issueministries.org/Home/7ComponentsinGrowingClosetoYah.aspx.html

which together will give you most of what you need to know and do in order to undertake the journey to become Yah’s Friend.

IF you embark on this journey with deep intent I strongly recommend that you read ALL that is on the End Time Issue Ministries website – there are over a thousand web pages and articles, some deeply inspired, some rather old and containing material error but, collectively, addressing most of the questions that you are likely to ask and most of the information that you will need on your journey to becoming a Friend of Yah.

I can supply the entire website on memory stick – email me if you would like to obtain this.

I pray that, having read this article, you will be challenged to greatly STRENGTHEN your resolve to draw much closer to Father than perhaps you knew to be possible before reading this and its companion articles.

Once again, I encourage you to GO FOR IT J

May Father bless you and keep you and make His face to shine upon you

May Yah judge me severely and correct me harshly and show me the level of my present deception and how to correct it with regard to everything that I write and publish
