Healthy Team Healthy BusinessHomesteading for the working family with Emily Tomko, DIY your food supplyHomesteading is more and more popular and given the uncertainty in today's world, it might be something to consider.

Emily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"The church groans along with creationThe wickedness of God’s people provokes a response to His holiness: He must render swift and severe judgment on the nation. Just before He instructs His angels to carry this out, He tells them, “Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and make a mark on the foreheads of the people who groan and sigh over all the abominations which are being committed in its midst.” (Interestingly, the mark here is a Tau, the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet, which was in the shape of the cross).Among God’s people who ar...2021-12-0306 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"The Spirit of Truth will guide you: avoiding the ditch on either side of the narrow way“If what you thought to be true was not, would you want to know?”A friend posted this question on social media and the responses were surprising. Instead of the universal “of course!” which I anticipated, several individuals replied “it depends” or “not necessarily.” Openly, several people admitted before their peers that, given a choice, they would rather believe some lies than have to change their minds.“The truth shall set you free,” Christ said; yet how many would rather live in bondage than bear the personal responsibility that freedom brings?This is a time of exposure, of para...2021-11-2709 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"Trust the Experts? "Nobody loves you that much except Jesus!"The nature of many paradigm shifts are that they are freeing but force us from our comfort zones. More than that, when you start sincerely seeking the truth, you may anger the people you’d least expect.The last 20 months, governments across the globe took unparalleled actions in the name of halting a virus. This has caused people to question many things they once took for granted. School board meetings that used to bring out four or five parents on a good night are now packed; one local meeting in my county lasted nearly six hours as parents w...2021-11-1207 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"The connection between Paradigm Shifts and repentanceA paradigm shift is defined as a radical change in thinking from an accepted point of view to a new belief (Merriam-Webster). The phrase “paradigm shift” is somewhat contemporary and originates from the scientific use of models and patterns (paradigms), necessitating a “shift” when new discoveries produce anomalies – or deviations – in the current trend.That the word “pattern” is foundational to the word paradigm brings Romans 12:2 to mind, in which the Apostle Paul exhorts us “do not be conformed to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your minds” (NIV).Why are paradigm shifts so d...2021-11-0505 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"All the Attention because He's Worth ItImagine a wealthy relation leaves you an inheritance, the scope of which is beyond your wildest imagination. Between the wealth and property he’s bequeathed, you’ve become one of the richest people on the planet. Delivered of your own debts and worries, his will stipulates one thing: that you help individuals out of their destruction too, using his funds. You follow his instructions, and in doing so, find a delight in helping to liberate people who were also trapped. Tapping endlessly into this bank account never leaves it overdrawn.But along the way, the postman delivers a gadget to...2021-10-2806 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"Prophetic warning Tidal Wave DreamRecently I had a dream in which I was in a small house surrounded on three sides by water. I was talking with a couple (they were not known to me in real life, but casual acquaintances in my dream) about our broken food system. As I spoke about how the last year and a half has made me aware how vulnerable and centralized our food really is, I opened the door of the house to glimpse an enormous wave cresting. I watched as it moved past the house we were in and broke toward the coastline, just past my visi...2021-10-2608 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"The Crown of RighteousnessDid you know that scripture speaks of five crowns available to the believer?Paul talks in this passage about the crown of righteousness awarded to him and to all those that love his appearing. The Berean Study Bible uses the word “crave” in place of “love” in regards to Christ’s appearing. Paul writes this to Timothy while in prison, the conditions unfavorable and uncomfortable (in the verses following he urgently requests that Timothy get to him before wintertime, and that he brings him his coat). The shadow of death is hovering over Paul, but he is looking ah...2021-10-2004 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"Living with expectation in a land of scoffersThe kingdom of heaven belongs to children, Christ said. Unless we become like children, He warned, we are going to miss it.How exciting to realize that simple faith lights up the heart of our Lord, and that God rewards those who diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6). Elizabeth Barrett Browning rightly stated that “God’s gifts put man’s best dreams to shame.”Three people who lived among scoffersThere are scores of scriptural examples of individuals who became heroes through their faith in and devotion to Jehovah, shining like stars among their mainstream peers. Three co...2021-10-1808 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"How to avoid becoming a scoffer in these last daysThe dangerous thing about scoffers and mockers is that they hang out in the church and call themselves pastors and teachers and prophets; some are bloggers and professors and Christian music artists.Peter warns the church about mockers so that1. We recognize them2. We don’t hang out with them3. We don’t ourselves become scoffers, fools and ultimately deceived.What group of individuals is an antithesis to scoffers?Here are some hints:But Jesus said, “Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from comi...2021-10-1612 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"In the last days, scoffers will comeHave you ever had a conversation with someone about the times we are in, and the imminent return of Christ, only to hear them say something to the effect of, “Aw, they’ve been talking about the world coming to an end since I was a kid”?It’s a shock when you realize that the scoffers are in the church...Check out emilytomko.com to connect with Emily through her prayer wall, peruse articles, or to view her books.2021-10-1406 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"Five Amorite kings and five American governorsIn Joshua 10:16-26 there is an account of five Amorite kings that fled as the children of Israel pursued the Amorite armies at Gilgal. The kings hid in a cave, and after the rest of their people were consumed by Israel, Joshua commanded the kings to be brought out of the cave. Joshua ordered his captains to put their feet on the necks of the five kings.“And Joshua said unto them, ‘Fear not, nor be dismayed, be strong and of good courage: for thus shall the Lord do to all your enemies against whom ye fight’.” (Joshua 10:2...2021-09-0204 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"Experts, Technology, and the Abolition of ManIn The Abolition of Man, C. S. Lewis foresaw a deadly marriage between moral subjectivity and technological advancement. In 1944, before the death camps of the National Socialists had been liberated, before the full horrors of communism surfaced on the world stage, Lewis looked into the future with uncanny clarity and predicted what we are witnessing today.This week I attended a local school board meeting for the first time. The 90-minute segment of time when community members spoke was dominated by the discussion of the board’s 6-3 vote in favor of allowing freedom of choice in wearing ma...2021-08-3009 min

Stand firm and be not encumbered again with a yoke of slavery” (Galatians 5:1).“For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.” (Galatians 5:13).2021-07-0106 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing"An urgent call from the Lord and the Ministry of ReconciliationI awoke in the middle of the night recently with a sense of the Lord wanting to speak with me.

That was my experience as I heard a doctor share her journey of physical healing as she was on her deathbed with all kinds of severe infirmities in her body, and how she was restored.That doctor was Sina McCullough, and her degrees are in neurobiology, physiology, and nutrition science. What I found so fascinating about her story was how medicine is testifying of what God's word has told us for thousands of years: that life and death lie i...2021-06-1611 minEmily Tomko - "For All those who love His appearing""Come out of her, My people!"The world is greatly distressed in this hour; but it is only the calm before the storm.I sense the Lord is giving a strong message to His church right now.
