 We live in a world where anything can happen in the blink of an eye. Death and natural disasters like the hurricane Ian that left ruins and destruction behind, and Covid which took many lives and still effects so many of us today. Life can weaken your faith and give you little hope if the devil succeeds at his goal. We have all heard we walk by faith and not by sight second Corinthians 5:7. How many of us say it but not actually live it. We live in a world where we must see it to believe it, so I ask are we a rare breed for believing what we can’t see or touch? We are a unique and know our father’s voice John 10:27 “my sheep hear my voice and I know them, and they follow me”. The world will tell us why and what for, but I am here to tell those who doubt the truth of our messiah Yahshua. Our creator so loved this world that he gave his only begotten son so that we may have salvation John 3:16. Our creator loved us so much that he gave us tools to master this cruel world and pick up our lantern and place as much oil in it as possible and take the path that is less traveled by the world and follow him. I know there is salvation in my creator’s name Yahweh Elohim Yahshua and it is up to those that believe to shine our light and show our faith to a world that knows not our creator. I know this walk may not be easy but that is okay because it will be my faith that sustains me in my time of trouble and in my time of good. Faith is a beautiful thing and is a precious gift for those of us who find truth in our spiritual walk. In 2 Corinthians 6:2 says for he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succored thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. I leave you with this message sisters and brothers we must never give up the fight because our creator Yahweh Elohim Yahshua wins the war so keep your heads hailed high and keep your faith that one day we will see the promise kingdom of precious creator and his son our messiah Yahshua. Shalom and peace to you all till we meet again here at YahshuaUniversity.com right place at the right time. Halleluyah!

 Yahweh our Elohim is our Greatest Love, John 15:12 says we are to Love one another as Yahweh Loved us. We live in a World that hatred is very prevalent. Women in many cases are treated as second class, especially Women of color. Women can be a strong force in the family. They can be recognized and appreciated for their support, as shown in Matthew 26:7-13. Love is a powerful tool for all Mankind. The word Love is used in the Bible over 300 times, it appears 57 times in the book of John. We are living in tumultuous times, were many loved ones are passing away. However because of the Love of our Heavenly Father Yahweh in John5:24-29 he tells us that those who believe in him will shall have the hope of Everlasting life. Yahweh our Elohim says in John 5:28,29 the time is coming when those in the grave shall hear his voice and live again. This is a Great Love for Mankind. Yahweh our Elohim has shown his mercy and grace toward us all. He has given his only begotten son Yahshua a sacrifice for us; so that we might have the hope of Eternal life as shown in John 17:3. By means of prayer we can gain strength and endure the things that we must suffer in these last days, Matthew 24:9-13. It's important that we love and encourage one another. There is a beautiful song by Whitney Houston called the Greatest love of all. However I would change a few of the words, because the Greatest love inside of us, should be for the Love for Yahweh our Elohim and Yahshua our true Messiah. By means of this, we are told to love one another without bigotry,hatred or racism. Matthew 22: 37-39 Being a part of the Yahshua University Family is a opportunity to show love as well as being loved unconditionally. Shalom Yah Family !
 Shalom Dear Sister of Yah it’s a new day and yes we all should be grateful in it for our creator Yahweh Elohim Yahshua has created this wonderful and new day in which no has seen or lived yet so let us rejoice and be glad in it Psalms 118:24 This is the day which the Yahweh hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. I know the world of yesterday does not look like the world of today, but it gives all of us the opportunity to have one more try to get it right so let’s embrace it and make it ours. Yahweh Elohim Yahshua wants us to renew our minds Romans 12:2 and focus on his purpose for our lives so that we may be given our white robes and have a sit at the wedding supper of the lamb (Yahshua) Rev 19:9. We all know life will continue to happen but it does not have to define us because we live and learn from our previous mistakes and we take up the mantle of life to be the women in Yah we know we can be. Tomorrow is not promise to anyone but do know this if you are blessed and shown mercy and grace then do not waste the moment doing things that will not manifest the Yah in you but use the opportunity to show Yahweh Elohim Yahshua love to another sister that may not know what a loving father we have in Yahweh, and that he gave his only begotten son that we may all have eternal life John 3:16 and that eternal life is to know our creator Yahweh and his son Yahshua the messiah John 17:3. The bible says for those who find me find life and receives favor from Yahweh Proverbs 8:35. My sisters in Yah this is what we have when we commit ourselves to our creator Yahweh Elohim Yahshua. We find the peace and love that was promised to us by Yahweh Elohim Yahshua and this is what we are to share with our sisters who are lost in the world and have yet to find this world that may seem more like an enemy than a world you can embrace and help shape. Sisters be the change and not just sit back and wait for the change but take this chance to do be and do so you sister show the YAH IN YOU! PEACE AND LOVE TILL NEXT TIME KEEP THE FAITH!
 I know we are living in a time of uncertainty in world that is fighting against a pandemic that most of us have never experienced. I know some of us are going through hard times such as a loss of a job, economic crisis and loss of family and friends that we loved. These uncertain times makes us doubt our tomorrow here on the earth plane. I know it looks dark and you do not know where to turn or you feel alone and hopeless at times. I want you to know there is light on the other side of the tunnel when you turn to our creator Yahweh Elohim Yahshua for comfort. Yahshua promised to send us a most precious gift after his glorification. He said. “Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.” (John 16:7). My sisters hold on to your faith with all of your heart and might and know that we have a creator that loves us and that will never forsake us (Deuteronomy 31:6) Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Yahweh your Elohim goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” My Sisters I know it’s not always easy life does happen and we may not always like the direction it is taking us but one thing is for sure as long as you believe with all your heart and soul Yahweh Elohiim Yahshua does have a plan for our lives. We must always keep our lamps fill with oil so when the time comes, we are ready, But the wise ones took oil in flasks along with their lamps (Matthew 25:4) this means we must not only speak in words but also do in deeds stay in your word, pray daily and be thankful for grace and mercy and always prepare for you white robes to sit at the wedding supper of the lamb when the time comes. My sisters in Yah hold your heads up, keep the strength and push forward no matter what this world brings our way and yes I know this is easier said then done but with Yahweh Elohim Yahshua we can do all things I can do all things through Yahshua who strengthens me (Philippians 4:13). leave you good tidings my dear sisters in Yah with love and peace and I hope with a little comfort to hold on you are not alone. Peace and love!
 What is love and hate? and why must we ask ourselves this old age question? We hear over and over these horrid acts of rage upon our women, we must ask ourselves what is it that brings a man or woman to the point of no return? To possess such a profound desire to destroy each other with no regards of the consequences here or beyond Romans 3:23. How is it that we can be aware of how we were taught self-hate and by whom and at the same time have a blatant denial of our responsibility to each other. To refuse to acknowledge who and what we are and what was endowed to us by our creator Yahweh Elohim Yahshua Genesis 1:26. Is this a product of our environment or a monster we are doomed to bear because of behaviors of old? Romans 5:12 In both Genesis2:9 and Revelations 22:2 it speaks of tress of fruit, a tree in the middle of a garden, a tree in the middle of the street. The trees are fed by not a flood but a river (1) a steady flow of water to feed the roots in order to grow fruit to eat and nourish our bodies (2) a river another steady flow of not water but divine messengers and messages to feed and nourish the souls of human fruit of a particular fruit, children of a divine nation, a fruit we are not to devour.  All fruit (the children) of the garden (realm of mankind) are born from that tree (Fallopian Tree) in the center (the womb) are not to be eaten (destroyed) “OR YOU WILL SURELY DIE” Genesis 2: 16-17. Like an animal that feeds on its young besides consuming and destroying the flesh, it’s also consuming and destroying the seed. Like fruit of the tree if there is no seed, there will be no more fruit and the people will cease to be. The serpent so subtly beguiled Eve and to coax her to destroy her family with the help of Adam in the very beginning in the middle of that garden before it could even get started Genesis 3 1-3 We now have these cults as subtle and beguiled as the serpent seeking whom they may devour physically, mentally and spiritually. We must awaken from this dark trance and rise in unison, raise our vibration to the level intended by our creator Yahweh, Elohim Yahshua. This behavior is a work we need to correct, a work that is well outside of our character and truly answers to what it means to be blackened.

In addition, Sister Claudia has been with Yahshua Univiersity more than eight years and is a contributing writer for the Sisterhood Blog at Yahshua University.com, where she, actively, fellowships.  I was recently asked what my morning routine is and how I start my day. Before my feet hit the floor, I like to give thanks to the most high Yahweh Elohim Yahshua. I want to give praise and thanks for his grace and mercy upon me and placing breath in my body because I do know and realize someone was not giving that favor to see one more day. I acknowledge and remember the scripture Psalms 118:24 that says this is the day Yahweh has made we will rejoice and be glad in it. I have also added this to my routine by turning on praise music in the morning and listening to my favorite artist doing what they do best sing praise to our creator Yahweh Elohim Yahshua as loud as I can play it in the morning to wake up my spirit, to make my soul dance in happiness to be alive. I do not know what the day will bring and how it will end but I do know I want to start and finish with my creator Yahweh Elohim Yahshua on my mind. The scripture Philippians 4:6-7 says and the peace of Yahweh which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Yahshua our messiah. This world will test you and challenge you but Yahweh Elohim Yahshua gives us the strength to endure, the strength to continue to teach and spread his message of hope and redemption. If you start the day off with our creator, it will set the tone of the day. I have found this is helpful with my walk with Yahweh Elohim Yahshua. If you want to change and be connected Romans 12:2 says do not conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind that by testing you may discern what is the will of Yahweh, what is good and acceptable and perfect. In my almost 50 years of life I do understand and realize Yahweh Elohim Yahshua wants to be one with us all we have to want the same and setting your minds and hearts on the creator before you start your day is a good place to start for change in your lives to walk with the most high because before you even opened up your eyes and took your first breath of the day he thought of you and could you not do the same. Ask yourself that question and marinate on it and I bet you conclude that the most high Yahweh Elohim Yahshua thought of you and gave you grace and mercy and favor. Thank your creator today and every day before getting out of bed and staring your day think about how you start the day and how you want to finish it and I pray my sisters that is giving thanks and praise to Yahweh Elohim Yahshua. Peace and love my sisters in Yah!
 Do you feel sometimes you are losing the battle of life? Do you feel like the world is against you? Well you are not alone. When we chose this life to walk with the messiah Yahshua we knew the world would come against us and tell us that we are crazy John 15:18 Yahshua says if the world hates you keep in mind it hated me first We knew we would lose some family and friends to sustain our believes in Yahweh Elohim Yahshua John 15:19 says If you belong to the world it would love you as its own as it is you do not belong to the world but I have chosen you out of the world We also knew the world would push us to fall and some of us will. Well do not worry my sisters in Yah we fall but we just get back up again like the famous Donny McClurkin song. It may be just a song to some but the lyrics are true for none of us are perfect and we all started somewhere and sometimes our past is not always pretty but just know for a saint is just a sinner who fell down but didn’t stay there they got up by the grace of our creator Yahweh Elohim Yahshua. We do not have to stay lying down in our dirt or our past whatever you may want to call it there is grace and mercy for us all. Our past does not define the person Yahweh created you to be. Live your best life in Yahweh Elohim Yahshua. We all marvel over things in this world like our wedding day and wedding dress but the only thing we should marvel over is the wonderful white robe your father the creator Yahweh Elohim Yahshua has for all of us at the wedding supper of the lamb. Make peace with your past and embrace your future with the one and only Yahweh Elohim Yahshua. Peace and love my sister in Yah! Verse to song We fall down But we get up We fall down But we get up We fall down But we get up, oh yes For a saint is just a sinner who fell down But we couldn't stay there And got up
On February 29, 2020, I had the honor to visit an event at the Rossell African-American History Awareness Museum and I had the honor of meeting Mrs. Carolyn Rossell, the founder of the museum. Over the years she has collected and cherished so much history. While she graciously took all the visitors on a guided tour, what stood out to me the most, was how much of our people had been held back or was the first to invent and accomplish so much from Medicine, Math, Aviation, Science and the list goes on and on. So much we were never taught in school. How much was actually stolen from us. I learned about Katherine Johnson, who was an American Mathematician whose calculations of orbital mechanics as a NASA employee were critical to the first US Space flights. Then there's Henrietta Lacks who was an African-American woman whose cancer cells are the source of the He La cell line, the first immortalized human cell line and one of the most important cell lines in medical research. Then there's Dr. Patricia Bath, the first African American female doctor to receive a medical patent after she invented a more precise treatment of cataracts. She was an early pioneer of laser cataract surgery. Another great was Bessie Coleman, the first female African American woman to earn a pilot's license. Because flying schools in the United States denied her entry, she taught herself French and moved to France, earning her license from Frances's well-known Caudron Brothers School of Aviation in just seven months.

 Are You Protecting Your Eternal Life Insurance? In this present world we live in on Earth, a life insurance policy is a contract with an insurance company. In exchange for premium payments, the insurance company provides a lump-sum payment, known as a death benefit, to the beneficiaries upon the insured’s death. Do you know that you are protected only as long as you keep paying your insurance or else you and your loved ones have no security. Are you preparing for Eternal Life?  Yahshua Messiah paid our purchase price with His precious blood. One of the benefits is a more abundant life. (John 10:10). The best eternal life policy is with Yahweh Elohim and his son Yahshua Messiah. Another benefit of Yahweh’s Eternal Life Insurance is by knowing the Sacred Saving comfirmed names of our Father and His son. There are so many benefits in choosing Yahweh’s Eternal Life Insurance Plan now before death. We are promised a more abundant life free from sickness, sorrow and death. Our dues have been paid by Yahshua Messiah, but in order to hold onto our paid up policy, we cannot afford to be mislead or listen to false advertisement from those other insurance companies: you know, the false doctrines, false prophets, churches etc. and the head of the Other Insurance Company, better known as Satan’s guaranteed eternal death. Acts 4:12 tells us, Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other Name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. There’s a protection plan with Yahweh. (Psalms 91:14-16) Because he hath set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known My Name. He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him My salvation.  Our Eternal Life Insurance is protected by daily bible study and by creating a relationship with Father Yahweh and His son Yahshua Messiah. Are you studying to show yourself approved unto Yahweh? (II Timothy 2:15-16)? I remember as a child growing up in Cincinnati, Ohio, every Saturday, the insurance man would come to our house to collect the insurance payments. Did you know that our Heavenly Father Yahweh Elohim and His Son Yahshua Messiah will be stopping by your house in this present day according to scripture to confirm their names? When they arrive, will you have the correct names on your policy, if not you don’t want to be carrying the incorrect policy with the names of other deities. Will this be a happy visitation or will your policy be cancelled if Father Yahweh has to connect with you at his visitation. This is the time of year when so many insurance companies are competing for your business. Offering so many options. Well, Satan is busy working overtime, competing for your soul, offering you every false doctrine under the sun. With Yahweh’s Eternal Life Insurance Plan, (This Gospel), the following is offered:
My Sisters, I challenge you to do all you can to keep this Eternal Life Insurance Plan, (This True End Time Gospel). Is your Eternal Life Insurance Plan current with Yahweh Elohim and Yahshua Messiah or has it lapsed? Stay Blessed, Sister Teresa ReplyForward
A Spiritual Family Reunion – Dedicated to my late mother Evelyn Edwards (a faithful servant of Yahshua the Messiah) ---By Sister Cathy Edwards  Mother Evelyn Edwards It is often said – “When the matriarch or patriarch dies the family unravels.” My late mother, Evelyn Edwards aka Tee Lena, was the eldest sibling in her family and she was a true matriarch. I can remember my first cousin hugging me the day of her funeral and saying, “Now that Tee Lena is gone – the family will never be the same.” Unfortunately, she was right. My family has never had the cohesiveness that it had when my mother was alive. As a matriarch she had the ability to call the family together in good times and in bad and everyone listened. The last family reunion we had was July 4, 2008; and my mother was gravely sick from breast cancer and chemo treatments but yet she made it to the family circle to give her love, words of wisdom and encouragement to all that were gathered. I marveled that even at her lowest she was the highest of women. She had that innate ability to make everyone feel like they were special.  She would pass away a year later and she gave me a gift as she laid dying. When the home health nurse came that day my mother appeared to be sound asleep. The nurse called her and woke her up. My mother opened her eyes and looked startled and said, “You interrupted me! I was walking down a beautiful street and you interrupted me!” In the background I had gospel music playing on a cable station and Candi Staton’s “Mama” (listen to the song below). The home health nurse was overwhelmed and started to tear up. She told me to call the family. My mother passed away that night with all her loved ones gathered around her bedside singing gospel hymns and celebrating her life. We are soon to experience a Universal Family Reunion where all the members of Yahweh’s household will gather and sing praises to our Heavenly Father, Yahweh and his son, Yahshua! We will be gathered in Yahrusalem above (Galatians 4:26) and we will all have one name (Ephesians 3:15). Until then we must be in constant preparation not to miss so great a celebration!! I often wondered why it is death that brings families together and not life? A child is born and a few call with congratulations and gifts. Been when a matriarch or patriarch dies we all know we must be in attendance to witness their life and how they touched us individually. Likewise, the spiritual family reunion began with Yahshua’s death, burial, resurrection and ascension back to the right hand of the Father for us to be gathered together again. The Apostle Paul wrote of this great spiritual family reunion on this wise in I Corinthians 15:13-28: “But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Messiah not risen: And if Messiah be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. Yea, and we are found false witnesses of Elohim; because we have testified of Elohim that he raised up the Messiah: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. For if the dead rise not, then is not Messiah raised: And if Messiah be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. Then they also which are fallen asleep in Messiah are perished. If in this life only we have hope in Messiah, we are of all men most miserable. But now is Messiah risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in the Messiah shall all be made alive. But every man in his own order: the Messiah the firstfruits; afterward they that are the Messiah's at his coming. Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to Yahweh, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that Yahweh may be all in all.” So I’m looking forward to meeting my mother along that beautiful street and running into the kingdom with her to give Yahweh Elohim Yahshua glory throughout all eternity! Shalom, my Sisters!
