NOT I that live but YAH that lives in me

by

James Robertson

In a number of recent articles I have addressed the issues of the meaningless religious words that are in widespread use to describe the Almighty and those associated with Him as well as clarifying why Yahooshua is not and cannot be Yah.

This article explores in more detail how Yahooshua accomplished what he did and how you can accomplish what you are called to do.

One of the most significant verses in the bible, little recognized and even less understood is Galatians 2:20.

In its traditional rendering it reads: "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me." KJV

A more accurate rendering would be: "I am executed with Yahooshua (the anointed one of Yah): nevertheless I live; yet not I, but the anointing of the Spirit of Yah liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of Yah, who loved me, and gave himself for me." KJV (adjusted)

The most critical piece of this verse can be rendered "I am put to death with Yahooshua and it is no longer I that live but the SPIRIT OF YAH that lives in me"

The only relevance of Yahooshua in this verse is:

1. That I seek to die to self as Yahooshua died to self.
2. I continue to live by the same faith that brought Yahooshua back to life, FAITH IN YAH and the promises of Yah.

This verse is about being filled with the Spirit of YAH so that He can live on earth THROUGH YOU and faith in YAH that He will do this.

This is about giving oneself so totally over to Yah that you no longer live other than to exercise your will second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day, week by week, month by month, year by year and decade by decade for the rest of your life to permit Yah to have total freedom to use your body to do His will on earth.

At this point you can claim to truly be an anointed one on earth!  And, at this point it will no longer matter to you that you are seen by others to be an anointed one because your entire satisfaction will flow from your intimate personal relationship with Yah Himself, YOUR DADDY!

This is one of the reasons why the label "Christian", which at least nominally means "anointed one" is such a farce and so meaningless – virtually all who appropriate this label to themselves do not have a clue what they are talking about and are certainly NOWHERE NEAR to the above.

Myself included.

In the middle of 1994 for a period of about three hours I personally had an experience of what the above is like.

I had a dramatic life changing encounter with Yah in about March 1993 when I was close to taking my own life and was headed for hell in the fast lane and about to pass the last off ramp.

Yah spoke to me.

I committed myself totally to do whatever He called me to do.

Accepted the bible as "The word of God and without Error".

Spent hours daily in prayer, reading the bible, listening to teaching tapes.

On the morning of 2 January 1994 at about 03h00 Yah filled my bedroom with the rushing mighty wind described in Acts chapter 2 and placed His hand on me for about twenty minutes imparting an intense infilling of His Spirit.

I started to prophesy, to lay hands on people and see them healed, be used in all sorts of ways.

About the middle of that year I traveled to Malawi.

I ministered, the power of the Spirit of Yah flowing through me was so strong that people could not stand, I walked through a hospital and saw people with faith to be healed, walked over to them, prayed for healing and moved on with absolute certainty they were healed.

That night I met with three shepherds {pastors} of the Assemblies of God church in Lilongwe, Malawi.

As I moved towards the most senior, Yah told me to tell them to move the furniture, they did, he fell to the ground under the power of the Spirit of Yah.  I started to speak over him but I had NO KNOWLEDGE of what was coming out of my mouth, the only active participation that I had in what was happening was that I could have chosen to prevent my mouth from speaking.

Yah spoke to this man for about twenty minutes, ALL in the first person but I guarantee that not a soul in that room thought for one second that James Robertson was speaking – we all knew that the Almighty Creator was speaking through James.

I moved to the next man, the same thing happened, he fell to the ground under the power of the Spirit of Yah and Yah spoke through me.

Then the third.

Finally I sat down and Yah spoke to me for about twenty minutes through my own mouth.  Again, there was no uncertainty as to who was speaking.

For the next two or three hours I taught.

But I taught things I did not know, there was somewhat more engagement of my intellect and faculties but effectively Yah was teaching through me simply through my willingness to be a vessel.

It has never happened again.

In the months and years that followed strife in my marriage slowly tore down the anointing and distracted me from my commitment.  The anointing cannot be sustained in an environment of domestic strife.

At various times I have reached some level of anointing but NEVER anything like what I have described above.

But, even then there was a catch – Yah could ONLY speak using language that I understood, words that my mouth knew how to frame and that our understanding knew how to interpret.  He used God, the LORD, Jesus, Christ and Cross because if he had used Yah the eternally self-existing, Yahooshua, spirit of Yah and stake we would not have understood the message and would most likely have rejected it.

The KEY POINT of sharing this with you is that right then, in that poorly furnished room in Malawi I KNEW what it was like to be Yahooshua!

The year before that Yah had said to me "read the Gospels as though YOU are Yahooshua" – I did, so by the time I had this experience in Malawi I had in detail read the Gospels repeatedly imagining that I, James Robertson, was the anointed prophet of Galilee.  That may shock you, you may think it presumptious even blasphemous but I would be lying to you if I told you otherwise.

So, when I met Loraine last year I KNEW that her word was true!

I met Loraine last year in July over the Internet and face to face at the beginning of August.

Before I met her Yah caused me to trip and fall flat on my face while carrying a computer, video camera, tripod, etc such that I could not brace myself or deflect my fall at all.  I was winded, injured and humiliated in front of about fifty people and then I still had to get up and deliver a forty five minute technical presentation at a major national conference.

That night, when I got on my knees and asked Yah why I had been judged this way His answer was roughly "pride – I need you to humble yourself before you meet Loraine tomorrow night – listen and do not say much – she has the third closest relationship with me of any person on earth right now …"

I met Loraine the following evening, she hosted me to dinner in her home, a delightful and charming woman with a wonderful secret.

For nearly thirty four years she has been walking as close to Daddy Yah as just about anyone else on this planet.

Well over a dozen dead have walked out of hospitals and morgues as a consequence of her ministry, she prophesies over nations and is consulted by governments, she has seen sick healed, storms calmed, been translated dozens of kilometres in minutes for a journey that should have taken an hour, the ONLY experience that she has not had that Yahooshua has had is to walk on water!  ALL THE REST have been real experiences in her life.

As she shared her life story, with no glory for herself just a meek and humble joy in what she experienced every day with her Daddy (her word) I knew with certainty that every word was true, that these experiences were real, that here was a woman who knew her heavenly Father as deeply as Yahooshua knew Him when Yahooshua walked the earth with the difference that she had done this for thirty four (34) years NOT three and a half.

Yes, there had been wrong turnings and mistakes, which she was quite prepared to talk about as well but in all things she had overcome so far in her life and was making a difference to the lives of others.

She spoke with respect of a great team of intercessors praying for her and her ministry and this world under her guidance.  Correction brought to high profile people.

Deliverance of high profile Satanists and Witches, dramatic demonic manifestations.

This beautiful and charming woman shared in a few hours a life story that could stand side by side with any account contained in the bible.

I left there absolutely certain that I had heard Yah correctly when He told me that she was one of those that was closest to Him on earth right now.

In the days that followed I got to know her more and learned more about her.

What I saw that first evening was that she was totally filled with the Spirit of Yah and was extremely close to Him at a level that I had never before seen in any human being.

I share this testimony in the hope that you will see more clearly the picture that I am seeking to build.

One of the principles that Loraine advocates as a necessity is regular fasting.

She maintains that you cannot seriously enter into any form of ministry without first going on a forty day (water only) fast, she has done something like seven in her life as well as numerous three day total fasts (Esther – no food and no fluid), 21 day (Daniel), etc.

She bases this on the forty days that Yahooshua spent in the wilderness being tempted by Satan and the two periods of forty days that Moses spent on the mountain with Yah receiving the Ten Commandments.

I am sure she is correct.

Technically at the end of a forty day fast one would be well on the way to starving to death, one is certainly well on the way to putting one's flesh to death in a significant way.

I have just completed seven three day fasts over seven weeks and that was a challenge for me, the thought of forty days with water only is a daunting prospect but one that I believe we should all be willing to embrace if we do it for the right reason – to die to self and be filled with the Spirit of Yah.

"I am put to death with Yahooshua it is no longer I that live but the Spirit of Yah that lives in me"

The question must be for all who read this – are YOU prepared to lay down your life to this extent – I have an excuse, I am on medication and clinically I cannot fast on water only for forty days without severe clinical repercussions but it is NOT a good excuse because if I had the faith to do the forty day fast I would probably be healed and no longer need the medication.

This is where the piece about "by the faith of the Son of Yah" comes in! (

So, my challenge to you is to give serious consideration to YOUR level of commitment on this – do YOU desire to do the same or greater works than Yahooshua – it is there, it is going to take more than a half-hearted forty day fast BUT it is there for the taking of ALL who TRULY SEEK IT, I have total certainty of this!

Do not get me wrong, it took Loraine a LOT MORE than a forty day fast to get to the level of relationship and anointing that she has walked in.

Selling a successful business and giving away all the proceeds and moving to a town where nobody knew her and living by faith without a job and without begging.  Driving a car with NO FUEL in the tank for months, praying constantly for a creative miracle to supply the fuel to get her from point A to point B.  Sitting down to table with no food in the house.

Driving at 120km per hour with her eyes closed learning to hear so clearly that she could travel for kilometres like this.

Faith that is extreme, on the face of it reckless, childlike in simplicity, total devotion to her Daddy, her childlike excitement at being used by Him, her wonderment at each new miracle performed through her, no pride, no complacency, a simple wonderment at her wonderful heavenly Daddy!

So, what are YOU waiting for, we are ALL called to be like this, IF we were all like this then the WHOLE WORLD would be serving our Father in heaven and Yahooshua could return to take up his kingdom.

Instead, Yahooshua is seated at the right hand of his Father WAITING for his enemies to be made his footstool!

It should be noted that there are different anointing's for different roles.

Not all of us are called to walk as power prophets as described above BUT a huge number more are called than are doing anything more than the most elementary attempts to walk in that power.

Others are called to supernatural wisdom in commerce, science, engineering, technology, law, education, medicine, etc, etc but few realize that this level of anointing is possible and fewer still are really making an effort to walk in it.

If you are NOT close to what is described above then I challenge you as to whether you can truly say you are a believer, let alone a servant – this is why the body of believers is so weak.

When is the last time YOU prayed "Father give me the anointing to be ALL that you want ME to be on this earth today" and then prayed "Father please lead me to make ALL the sacrifices that you want me to make in order to achieve this level of anointing" ?

And then, "Father, please cause me to pray all that I need to pray to achieve ALL that you want me to achieve in my life" …

and other extreme prayers?

Are YOU willing to make a difference?

Do you WANT to make a difference?

Are you WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE?

The ridicule when your new found faith does not work?

Losing friends and family?

Opposition from the forces of darkness?

If you count for anything on earth today know this, the forces of darkness will be making LIFE DIFFICULT for you right now.

If they are not then you are NOT (making a difference)!

Building on the messages that have gone before this, let me draw your attention to another widely incorrectly interpreted verse Revelation 20:4:

"And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Yahooshua {Jesus}, and for the word of Yah {God}, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with the anointing of the Spirit of Yah {Christ} a thousand years" KJV (adjusted)

Notice, this does NOT say that Yahooshua will reign on earth for a thousand years, it says that believers will reign with the ANOINTING OF THE SPIRIT OF YAH for a thousand years.

That thousand years commenced in May 2003 when Satan was cast into the Pit for a thousand years.

We are already supposed to be reigning and, it turns out, that Loraine has been anointing men and women as kings for some years!

Like Loraine, these people may not be very visible but they ARE there and will become more prominent in time BUT they, too, need to learn the lesson that is contained in this article and become much more committed.

And, by the way, the mark of the beast is NOT some computer micro-chip, it is the sin of breaking ANY of the ten commandments either with our thoughts and what we believe (IN our foreheads) or in what we write or contract (IN our hands) – so get the names right, observe the true Sabbath strictly, etc, etc.

As for Jesus, he is here already as any number of demons and fallen angels that answer to the name of Jesus and which manifest at times with human bodies that look just like people expect Jesus to look but these are NOT Yahooshua the anointed of Yah, the son of Miriam, born in Bethlehem of Yahood about 2007 years ago.

I pray that this article will challenge you to review your service to Yah and your relationship to Him and to step out in faith seeking to be put to death with Yahooshua that Yah may live in and through you!
