Unleavened Worship


What is unleavened worship? It is the simple, pure worship that results from being clean of the leaven (sin) in our lives through allowing His Word, His Spirit, to convict us - exposing the hidden areas of our inward parts. Abba Father, the Creator, Yahuah, Himself is interested in those "little nuances" because it is the little things (rotten) that spoil the 'apple' of our life.

Learning to know what pleases Him and what does not, takes an action of examination of within. Nobody enjoys being under the microscope of His Spirit, but without a close examination, the details of leaven (sin) remain and will work to destroy us, contaminating the pure work He has begun in us.



As we remember the bondage we were brought out of through Messiah Yahusha (Jesus) - Our Savior, let us finish crossing over into what He has prepared for us, leaving behind our sin to be drowned in the sea of His judgment. If our sin is not put to rest, covered over by His blood, it will follow us wherever we go - seeking to hunt us down and consume us.

It is time we sing the song of Moses - the unleavened worship of a Creator Who has done wondrous things for us. As we remember how He brought us forth from Egypt (the world), let us examine our hearts for those things that keep us from moving out forward into all that He has prepared for us. As David said in Psalm 51:10 create in me a clean heart, O Elohim, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.  
Psalm 139:23-24 search me, O El, and know my heart; try me, and know my thoughts; and see if an idolatrous way is in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.



He is telling us to go forward, not backwards (the past)!  The past could be - divorce, abuse, hurt, death, depression or sickness but that is the past. You cannot go forward if you still are living in the past.

As He told Moses, 'don't cry to Me about it' - you, Moses, stretch forth your hand and part the sea... (Exodus 14:15-16).

If you hold on to the past (talking about it, bringing it up in a conversation, not trusting because of the past, and so on) then you are preventing the Set-apart Spirit (Holy Spirit) of teaching you about His Kingdom, about His word, setting you apart.

Messiah says that He is the light; He will not be there where darkness is. Bad things that happened in your past are darkness, how can you then go forward when you are still in that darkness of the past.



Our prayers become the excuses for not stepping out.

It is time we go forward! And if that means we have to get motivated by turning around and looking behind us to see that, if we do not, the sin will catch up with us, satan will fall upon us, and the sea that is parted before us will eventually close-- leaving us no escape. His hand is holding back the waters of escape for a little while longer...



Now is the time of the crossing...Now is the time for our deliverance.
