Shabbat Shalom Loved
One!
YHWH is restoring all things and that includes us who were
once DRY BONES! Mighty is He whose mercy
endures forever! All who call on His name will be delivered! This study is attached for easier reading/study- and at the website below.

Torah Studies
Why we are on a different schedule of the Torah Cycle than the mainstream and the Orthodox? For me it is about restoration of all things- explanation is continued at end of this week’s study…
Today I will
start with a short message about Freedom- who gives it, and how it is
maintained since today (Friday as I am working on this at 3 am)
is INDEPENDENCE DAY in the USA; a day for remembering or honoring our freedom
or independence from whom or what? I am
including a link on “Change” decreeing His manifested presence worth considering:

TYRANNY-
Treacherous rulers, etc.; Yahweh promises the nation that will not obey Him
will lose their freedom, and will go into captivity and be destroyed. Today we start our study by remembering who we are as
believers and that we are scattered around the planet.
(Deuteronomy
4:27) "YHWH
will scatter you among the peoples and you will be left few in number among the
nations where YHWH drives you. (Deuteronomy 4:28) "There you will serve YHWHs the work of
man's hands, wood and stone, which neither see nor hear nor eat nor smell. (Deuteronomy 4:29)
"From there you will seek YHWH your Elohim, and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and
all your soul.
Note below WHEN
these things happen is the latter days (NOW!) Only by His mighty outstretched
hand will He direct and protect us!
(Deuteronomy4:
30) "When you
are in distress and all these things have come upon you, in the latter days you
will return to YHWH your Elohim and listen to His voice. (Deuteronomy 4:31)
“YHWH your Elohim is a compassionate Elohim; He will not fail you nor
destroy you nor forget the covenant with your fathers which He swore to them. (Deuteronomy 4:32)
"Indeed, ask now concerning the former days which were before you,
since the day that YHWH created man on the earth, and inquire from one end of the heavens to the other.
Has anything been done like this great
thing, or has anything been heard like
it? (Deuteronomy 4:33) "Have any people heard the voice of YHWH
speaking from the midst of the fire, as you have heard it, and survived? (Deuteronomy
4:34) "Or has a Elohim tried
to go to take for himself a nation from within another
nation by trials, by signs
and wonders and by war and by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm and by
great terrors, as YHWH your Elohim did for you in Egypt before your eyes? (Deuteronomy
4:35) "To you it was shown that you might know
that YHWH, He is YHWH; there is no other besides Him.
Trouble’s coming but
obedience brings YHWH’s deliverance!
(Deuteronomy
30:1) "So it shall be when all of these things
have come upon you, the blessing and the curse which I have set before you, and
you call them to mind in all nations
where YHWH your Elohim has banished you, (Deuteronomy
30:2) and you return to YHWH your Elohim; and obey Him with all your
heart and soul according to all that I command you today, you and your sons, (Deuteronomy 30:3) then YHWH your Elohim will restore
you from captivity, and have compassion on you, and will gather you again from
all the peoples where YHWH your Elohim has scattered you.
(Deuteronomy
30:4) "If your outcasts are at the ends of the
earth, from there YHWH your Elohim will gather you, and from there He will bring you back. (Deuteronomy
30:5) "YHWH your Elohim will
bring you into the land which your fathers possessed, and you shall possess it;
and He will prosper you and multiply you more than your fathers. (Deuteronomy 30:6)
"Moreover YHWH your Elohim will circumcise your heart and the heart
of your descendants, to love YHWH your Elohim with all your heart and with all
your soul, so that you may live. (Deuteronomy 30:7) "YHWH your Elohim will inflict all these
curses on your enemies and on those who hate you, who persecuted you. (Deuteronomy 30:8)
"And you shall again obey YHWH, and observe all His commandments
which I command you today.
In
the USA the date of July 4th (Today
as I prepare) has always (At least
since 1776) stood for INDEPENDENCE!
We were not depending on
other men and countries to sustain us, but dependent on YHWH and His directions
for our blessings. Many of our founding fathers wrote about their beliefs and
following of the scriptures as our sole reason for our freedoms and blessings.
I give a few examples as my summary of the signers of our constitution and will
list several pages of quotes as an attachment for why we should expect our
liberties to soon vanish and tyranny to prevail, because without absolute
repentance and turning our stubborn hearts as a country and society we must
unravel and be ruled by other than YHWH and His principles. Apparently, we can
have wicked (twisted from
Torah instructions) men and countries rule us or we can follow and obey our
Creator as King. Last week’s study was about our ancestors of the faith
demanding a king rather than YHWH. So what’s different with us today? We in the
USA and other countries have kicked out YHWH from our Courts, from our schools
and from our families, yet we have bumper stickers that say “YHWH Bless our
country”! With that ridiculous thought in place, let’s take a quick look of
what the Founding Fathers say has brought the many blessings to our country:
Thomas Jefferson 3rd U.S. President, Drafter and Signer of the Declaration
of Independence
"YHWH
who gave us life gave us liberty. And can the liberties of a nation be thought
secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of
the people that these liberties are of the Gift of YHWH? That they are not to
be violated except with His wrath? Indeed, I tremble for my country when I
reflect that YHWH is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever; that a
revolution of the wheel of fortune, a change of situation, is among possible
events; that it may become probable by Supernatural influence! The Almighty has
no attribute which can take side with us in that event."
John Adams and John
Hancock:
We Recognize No Sovereign but YHWH, and no King but Jesus! [April 18, 1775]
We Recognize No Sovereign but YHWH, and no King but Jesus! [April 18, 1775]
John Adams: –John Adams in a letter written to Abigail on the day the
Declaration was approved by Congress “We
have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions
unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry,
would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a
net. Our
Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly
inadequate to the government of any other." --October 11, 1798
John Quincy Adams:

Charles
Carroll - signer
of the Declaration of Independence | Portrait of Charles Carroll " Without morals a republic cannot
subsist any length of time; they therefore who are decrying the Christian
religion, whose morality is so sublime and pure...are undermining the solid
foundation of morals, the best security for the duration of free
governments." [Source: To James McHenry on November 4, 1800.]
Benjamin Franklin: | Portrait
of Ben Franklin “YHWH governs in the affairs of man. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground
without his notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid? We
have been assured in the Sacred Writings that except the YHWH build the house,
they labor in vain that build it. I firmly believe this. I also believe that,
without His concurring aid, we shall succeed in this political building no
better than the builders of Babel”–Constitutional Convention of 1787 |
original manuscript of this speech “In the beginning of the contest with
Britain, when we were sensible of danger, we had daily prayers in this room for
Divine protection. Our prayers, Sir, were heard, and they were graciously
answered… do we imagine we no longer need His assistance?” [Constitutional
Convention, Thursday June 28, 1787]
Alexander Hamilton:
"For my own part, I sincerely esteem it [the Constitution] a system which without the finger of YHWH, never could have been suggested and agreed upon by such a diversity of interests." [1787 after the Constitutional Convention]
"For my own part, I sincerely esteem it [the Constitution] a system which without the finger of YHWH, never could have been suggested and agreed upon by such a diversity of interests." [1787 after the Constitutional Convention]
“We’ve staked our future on our ability to
follow the Ten Commandments with all of our heart.” “We
have staked the whole future of American civilization, not upon the power of
government, far from it. We’ve staked the future of all our political
institutions upon our capacity…to
sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of YHWH.” [1778 to the General Assembly of the
State of Virginia]
It
appears from these writings that the Founding Fathers of our country (USA) recognized that if a country (any country) ever moved away from
obeying the Bible and the 10 commandments as its constitution, that country
would not be sustainable! This brings us to today’s study of the Torah: YHWH’s
Constitution! The Torah (Bible) is the Constitution, Preamble,
and Bill of Rights we now have, and will still operate under in our coming
King’s KINGDOM! Knowing these things, how then shall we live? This then is
how we should (Will/must) live. These
are the days left of our preparation times. The fire is kindled as we read
today!
Why MUST we draw ever so
close to the very heart of Yahshua? Would Yahshua give His power to those who
try and judge others which judgment He retains for Himself only? We will need
YHWH’s power to walk and produce fruit during the 42 months of Great
Tribulation when the anti-messiah (antichrist) rules after he takes away the daily
sacrifice. (Daily offering not started up again in Israel yet) This is who
we become: the 2 witnesses in HIS HAND- JUDAH & EPHRAIM!
Hallelu-Yah- let us repent- continually drawing near and know better our Elohim!
Let’s look at several
Scripture Versions:
KJV
(Dan 11:31)
And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary
of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice,
and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate. (Dan 11:32)
And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries:
but the people that do know their God
shall be strong and do exploits.
ASV
(Dan 11:31)
And forces shall stand on his part, and they shall profane the
sanctuary, even the fortress, and shall take away the continual burnt-offering, and they shall set up the
abomination that maketh desolate. (Dan 11:32) And such as do wickedly against the covenant
shall he pervert by flatteries; but
the people that know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.
The Scriptures
(Dan 11:31)
“And strong ones shall arise from him and profane the set-apart place,
the stronghold, and shall take away that which is continual, and set up the
abomination that lays waste1. Footnote: 1See 8:13, 9:27, Mt.24:15 (Dan 11:32) “And by flatteries he shall profane those who
do wrong against the covenant, but the people who know their Elohim shall be strong, and
shall act.
(Exploits-Miracles)
Yes- we will do exploits as we yield and submit to His word and become our
destiny- no more dry bones but A MIGHTY WITNESS IN HIS HANDS!
(Ezekiel 37:1)
The hand of יהוה was upon me and took me out by the Spirit of יהוה, and set me down in the midst of the valley. And it was
filled with bones. (Ezekiel 37:2) And He made me pass among them, all around,
and see, there were very many on the surface of the valley, and see, they were
very dry. (Ezekiel 37:3) And He said to me, “Son of man, would these
bones live?” And I said, “O Master יהוה, you know.” (Ezekiel 37:4)
Again He said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and you shall say to them,
‘O dry bones, hear the word of יהוה! (Ezekiel 37:5)
‘Thus said the Master יהוה to these bones, “See, I
am bringing into you a spirit, and you shall live. (Ezekiel
37:6) “And I shall put sinews on
you and bring flesh upon you, and cover you with skin and put a spirit in you,
and you shall live. And you shall know that I am יהוה.” ’
” (Ezekiel 37:7) and I prophesied as I was
commanded. And as I prophesied, there was a noise, and there was a rattling.
And the bones came together, bone to bone. (Ezekiel
37:8) And I looked and saw sinews
and flesh came upon them, and skin covered them, but there was no spirit in
them. (Ezekiel 37:9) He then said to me, “Prophesy to the spirit,
prophesy, son of man, and you shall say to the spirit, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “Come from the four winds, O spirit, and breathe on these
slain, so that they live.” ’ ” (Ezekiel 37:10)
and I prophesied as He commanded me, and the spirit came into them, and they
lived, and stood upon their feet, a very great army. (Ezekiel
37:11) And He said to me, “Son of
man, these bones are all the house of Yisra’ĕl. See, they say, ‘Our bones are
dry, our expectancy has perished, and we ourselves have been cut off!’ (Ezekiel 37:12)
“Therefore prophesy, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “See, O My people, I am opening your graves, and shall
bring you up from your graves, and shall bring you into the land of Yisra’ĕl. (Ezekiel 37:13)
“And you shall know that I am יהוה, when I open
your graves, O My people, and bring you up from your graves. (Ezekiel 37:14)
“And I shall put My Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I shall
settle you in your own land. And you shall know that I יהוה
have spoken, and I have done it,” declares יהוה.’ ” (Ezekiel 37:15) And the word of יהוה
came to me, saying, (Ezekiel 37:16) “And you, son of man, take a stick for
yourself and write on it, ‘For Yehuḏah and for the children of Yisra’ĕl, his
companions.’ Then take another stick and write on it, ‘For Yosĕph, the stick of
Ephrayim, and for all the house of Yisra’ĕl, his companions.’ (Ezekiel 37:17)
“Then bring them together for yourself into one stick, and they shall
become one in your hand. (Ezekiel 37:18) “And when the children of your people speak
to you, saying, ‘Won’t you show us what you mean by these?’ (Ezekiel 37:19) say to them, ‘Thus
said the Master יהוה, “See, I am taking the stick of
Yosĕph, which is in the hand of Ephrayim, and the tribes of Yisra’ĕl, his
companions. And I shall give them unto him, with the stick of Yehuḏah, and
make them one stick, and they shall be one in my hand.” ’ (Ezekiel 37:20) “And the sticks on which you write shall be in
your hand before their eyes. (Ezekiel 37:21) “And speak to them, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה,
“See, I am taking the children of Yisra’ĕl from among the gentiles, wherever
they have gone, and shall gather them from all around, and I shall bring them
into their land. (Ezekiel 37:22) “And I shall make them one nation in the land, on the
mountains of Yisra’ĕl. And one sovereign shall be sovereign over them all, and
let them no longer be two nations, and let them no longer be divided into two
reigns. (Ezekiel 37:23) “And they shall no longer defile themselves with their
idols, nor with their disgusting matters, nor with any of their
transgressions. And I shall save them from all their dwelling places in which
they have sinned, and I shall cleanse them. And they shall be my people, and I will
be their Elohim, (Ezekiel 37:24) while
Dawiḏ my servant is sovereign over them. And they shall all have one shepherd
and walk in my right-rulings and guard my laws, and shall do them. (Ezekiel 37:25)
“And they shall dwell in the land that I have given to Yaʽaqoḇ my
servant, where your fathers dwelt. And they shall dwell in it, they and their
children and their children’s children, forever, and my servant Dawiḏ be their
prince forever. (Ezekiel 37:26) “And I shall make a covenant of peace
with them – an everlasting covenant it is with them. And I shall
place them and increase them, and shall place my set-apart place in their
midst, forever. (Ezekiel 37:27) “And My Dwelling Place shall be over them.
And I shall be their Elohim, and they shall be my people. (Ezekiel 37:28)
“And the gentiles shall know that I, יהוה, am
setting Yisra’ĕl apart, when my set-apart place is in their midst – forever.” ’
”
Here is the special note Father asked me to warn us about- it is a life and
death moment of decision for most of us…Lashon Hara and all evil speaking! We must learn to stop pointing the finger and blaming others if we are to
become the bride without spot or blemish. (Isaiah 58)
Lashon hara
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The related terms "hotzaat Shem
ra"/"hotzaat diba", and "rekhilut" all redirect here.
The
Hebrew term lashon hara (or loshon hora) (Hebrew
לשון הרע; "evil tongue") is the halakhic term for
derogatory speech about another person.[1]
Lashon hara differs from defamation
in that its focus is on the use of true speech for a wrongful purpose, rather
than falsehood and harm arising. By contrast, hotzaat Shem ra
("spreading a bad name"), also called hotzaat diba, consists
of untrue remarks, and is best translated as "slander" or
"defamation". Hotzaat Shem ra is worse, and consequentially a
graver sin, than lashon hara.[1] Speech
is considered to be lashon hara if it says something negative about a
person or party, is not previously known to the public, is not seriously
intended to correct or improve a negative situation, and is true. Statements that
fit this description are considered to be lashon hara, regardless of the
method of communication that is used, whether it is through face-to-face
conversation, a letter, telephone, or email. The sin of lashon hara is
considered to be a very serious sin. Why would He instruct me to teach on this? I suspect we need to search our hearts and words; inspect
ourselves and REPENT if our hearts condemn us in any way! JUDGE
OURSELVES or we are about to be judged in fiery trials approaching. (1Co 11:30)
Because of this many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep. (1Co 11:31) For if we were to examine ourselves, we
would not be judged. (1Co 11:32) But when we are judged, we are disciplined by
the Master, that we should not be condemned with the world.
(Mat 7:1) “Do not judge, lest you be judged. (Mat 7:2) “For with what judgment you judge,
you shall
be judged. And with the same measure you use, it shall be measured to you.
(Mat 7:3)
“And why do you look at the splinter in your
brother’s eye, but do not notice the plank in your own eye? (Mat 7:4) “Or how is it that you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove
the splinter out of your eye,’ and see, a plank is in your own eye? (Mat 7:5) “Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and
then you shall see clearly to remove the splinter out of your brother’s eye.
I also suspect more of us better take Him serious now as
He will not allow us to sit as JUDGE of the TORAH! (James 4:8)
Draw near to Elohim and He shall draw near to you. Cleanse your hands,
sinners. And cleanse the hearts, you double-minded! (James 4:9) Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter
be turned to mourning and your joy to dejection. (James 4:10) Humble yourselves in the sight of the Master,
and He shall lift you up. (James 4:11) Brothers, do
not speak against one another. He that speaks against a brother and judges his
brother speaks against Torah and judges Torah. And if you judge Torah, you are
not a doer of Torah but a judge.
(James 4:12) There is one Lawgiver and Judge,
who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?
We must clean up and
make ourselves ready as His BRIDE and allow Him to make us who were once DRY BONES to become the
restored! We cannot follow those of various religious systems including both
Judaism and these below who are described similar to modern Churchianity:
(Ezekiel 22:26) "Her
priests have done violence to my law
(Torah/Instructions) and have
profaned my holy things; they have made no distinction between the holy and the
profane, and they have not taught the difference between the unclean and the
clean; and they hide their eyes from my Sabbaths, and I am profaned
among them.” (He said MY Sabbaths- seems we can’t pick
our own)
Mat 21:44 “And he who
falls on this stone (The
Word- Yahshua) shall be broken, 1 but on
whomever it falls, he shall be pulverized.” Footnote:
1Rom. 8:10 & 13, Col. 3:5.
(Deuteronomy 30:19) “I have
called the heavens and the earth as witnesses today against you: I have set before you life and death, the
blessing and the curse. Therefore
you shall choose life, so that you live, both you and your seed, (Deuteronomy
30:20) to love יהוה your Elohim, to obey His voice, and to cling to Him – for He is your life
and the length of your days – to dwell in the land which יהוה swore to your fathers, to Aḇraham, to Yitsḥaq, and to Yaʽaqoḇ, to give
them.”
Here’s our prayer Yah suggests for
us to make below-CONTINUALLY!
(Luke 21:36) You watch you
therefore and pray always, that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things
that shall come to pass, and to stand before the
Son of man. Of course
the goal would be to stand unashamed before Yahshua having produced
fruit that will remain!
Here
is our condition- Now we speak no
careless words but we speak His words of agreement about ourselves and we
become who He is restoring us to become- HIS WITNESSES!
(Mat 12:34) “You brood of
adders! How are you able to speak what is good – being wicked? For the mouth speaks from the overflow
of the heart. (Mat 12:35) “The
good man brings forth what is good from the good treasures of his heart, and
the wicked man brings forth what is wicked from the wicked treasure. (Mat
12:36) “And I say to you that for every
idle (careless) word men speak, they
shall give an account of it in the Day of Judgment. (Mat 12:37) “For
by your words you shall be declared righteous, and by your words you shall be
declared unrighteous.’ (Condemned)
If no man (male or female) can tame the
tongue, which yields our direction similar to a bridle on a horse or a rudder
on a ship- how then can our tongue be tamed? Too
many “teachers” putting down others and building their own kingdoms- which of
course will be burned with fire!
(Pro
18:21) Death and life are in the
power of the tongue, and those loving it eat its fruit.
WITH REPENTANT WORDS IN OUR HEARTS- let’s
turn our hearts to this week’s Torah Cycle:
This week’s Torah Scriptures: Va’era “And I
appeared”
Exodus
6:2-9:35; Ezekiel 28:25-29:21; Romans 9:14-24
YHWH
appears to men and reveals HIS NAME!
(Exodus 6:2)
And Elohim spoke to Mosheh and said to him, “I am יהוה. (Exodus 6:3)
“And I appeared to Aḇraham, to Yitsḥaq, and to Yaʽaqoḇ, as Ěl
Shaddai. And by My
Name, יהוה
was I not known to them? (Exodus 6:4) “And I also established my covenant with
them, to give them the land of Kenaʽan, the land of their sojourning’s, in
which they have sojourned. (Exodus 6:5) “And I have also heard the groaning of the
children of Yisra’ĕl whom the Mitsrites are enslaving, and I have remembered my
covenant. (Exodus 6:6) “Say, therefore, to the children of Yisra’ĕl,
‘I am יהוה, and I shall bring you out from under the
burdens of the Mitsrites, and shall deliver you from their enslaving, and shall
redeem you with an outstretched arm, and with great judgments, (Exodus 6:7) and shall take you as my people, and I
shall be your Elohim. And you shall know that I am יהוה
your Elohim who is bringing you out from under the burdens of the Mitsrites. (Exodus 6:8)
‘And I shall bring you into the land which I swore to give to Aḇraham,
to Yitsḥaq, and to Yaʽaqoḇ, to give it to you as an inheritance. I am יהוה.’ ” (Exodus 6:9) And Mosheh
spoke thus to the children of Yisra’ĕl, but they did not listen to Mosheh,
because of shortness of spirit, and from hard slavery. (Exodus
6:10) And יהוה
spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Exodus 6:11) “Go in,
speak to Pharaoh Sovereign of Mitsrayim, to let the children of Yisra’ĕl go out
of his land.” (Exodus 6:12) And Mosheh spoke before יהוה,
saying, “The children of Yisra’ĕl have not listened to me, and why would
Pharaoh listen to me, for I am of uncircumcised lips?” (Exodus
6:13) And יהוה
spoke to Mosheh and to Aharon, and gave them a command for the children of
Yisra’ĕl and for Pharaoh, sovereign of Mitsrayim, to bring the children of
Yisra’ĕl out of the land of Mitsrayim. (Exodus 6:14) These are the heads of their fathers’ houses:
The sons of Re’uḇĕn, the first-born of Yisra’ĕl: Ḥanoḵ and Pallu, Ḥetsron
and Karmi. These are the clans of Re’uḇĕn. (Exodus
6:15) And the sons of Shimʽon:
Yemu’ĕl, and Yamin, and Ohaḏ, and Yaḵin, and Tsoḥar, and Sha’ul the son of a
Kenaʽanite woman. These are the clans of Shimʽon. (Exodus
6:16) These are the names of the
sons of Lĕwi according to their generations: Gĕreshon, and Qehath, and Merari.
And the years of the life of Lĕwi were one hundred and thirty-seven. (Exodus 6:17)
The sons of Gĕreshon: Liḇni and Shimʽi according to their clans. (Exodus 6:18)
And the sons of Qehath: Amram, and Yitshar, and Ḥeḇron, and Uzzi’ĕl.
And the years of the life of Qehath were one hundred and thirty-three. (Exodus 6:19)
And the sons of Merari: Maḥli and Mushi. These are the clans of Lĕwi
according to their generations. (Exodus 6:20) And Amram took for himself Yoḵeḇeḏ, his
father’s sister, as wife. And she bore him Aharon and Mosheh. And the years of
the life of Amram were one hundred and thirty-seven. (Exodus
6:21) And the sons of Yitshar:
Qoraḥ, and Nepheḡ, and Ziḵri. (Exodus 6:22) And the sons of Uzzi’ĕl: Misha’ĕl, and
Eltsaphan, and Sithri. (Exodus 6:23) Aharon took to himself Elisheḇa, daughter of
Amminaḏaḇ, and sister of Naḥshon, as wife. And she bore him Naḏaḇ, and
Aḇihu, Elʽazar, and Ithamar. (Exodus 6:24) And the sons of Qoraḥ: Assir, Elqanah, and
Aḇiyasaph. These are the clans of the Qorḥites. (Exodus
6:25) And Elʽazar, Aharon’s son,
took for himself one of the daughters of Puti’ĕl as wife. And she bore him
Pineḥas. These are the heads of the fathers of the Lĕwites according to their
clans. (Exodus 6:26) This is Aharon, and Mosheh, to whom יהוה said, “Bring out the children of Yisra’ĕl from the land of
Mitsrayim according to their divisions.” (Exodus 6:27) They were the ones who spoke to Pharaoh Sovereign
of Mitsrayim, to bring out the children of Yisra’ĕl from Mitsrayim. This is
Mosheh, and Aharon. (Exodus 6:28) And it came to be, on the day when יהוה spoke to Mosheh in the land of Mitsrayim, (Exodus 6:29) that יהוה spoke to
Mosheh, saying, “I am יהוה. Speak to Pharaoh Sovereign of
Mitsrayim all that I say to you.” (Exodus 6:30) And Mosheh said before יהוה,
“See, I am of uncircumcised lips, and why would Pharaoh listen to me?”
We will soon have a new Pharaoh
(Anti-messiah-antichrist) who we (Only walking with Yahshua) will be as
an Elohim to him---Here comes the destruction of all of the world’s (Egypt’s)
false gods and idols- just like we shall see and proclaim as Revelation suggests…
(Exodus 7:1)
So יהוה said to Mosheh, “See, I have
made you an elohim1 to Pharaoh,
and Aharon your brother is your prophet. Footnote: 1Or
mighty one – see footnote at 4:16. (Exodus
7:2) “You shall speak all that I
command you, and Aharon your brother shall speak to Pharaoh, to let the
children of Yisra’ĕl go out of his land. (Exodus 7:3) “But I am going to harden the heart of
Pharaoh, and shall increase my signs and my wonders in the land of Mitsrayim. (Exodus 7:4)
“And Pharaoh is not going to listen to you, and I shall lay my hand on
Mitsrayim, and bring my divisions and my people, the children of Yisra’ĕl, out
of the land of Mitsrayim by great judgments. (Exodus
7:5) “And the Mitsrites shall
know that I am יהוה, when I stretch out my hand on
Mitsrayim. And I shall bring the children of Yisra’ĕl out from among them.” (Exodus 7:6)
And Mosheh and Aharon did as יהוה commanded them,
so they did. (Exodus 7:7) Now Mosheh was eighty years old and Aharon
eighty-three years old when they spoke to Pharaoh. (Exodus
7:8) And יהוה
spoke to Mosheh and to Aharon, saying, (Exodus 7:9)
“When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, ‘Show a miracle for yourselves,’ then you
shall say to Aharon, ‘Take your rod and throw it before Pharaoh, and let it
become a serpent.’ ” (Exodus 7:10) So Mosheh
and Aharon went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, as יהוה
commanded. And Aharon threw his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and
it became a serpent. (Exodus 7:11) But Pharaoh also called the wise men and the practicers
of witchcraft. And they, the magicians of Mitsrayim, also did so with their magic.
(Exodus 7:12)
And they, each one, threw down his rod, and they became serpents. But
the rod of Aharon swallowed up their rods. (Exodus
7:13) And Pharaoh’s heart was
hardened, and he did not listen to them, as יהוה had said.
(Exodus 7:14)
And יהוה said to Mosheh, “The heart of Pharaoh is
hard, he refuses to let the people go. (Exodus 7:15) “Go to Pharaoh in the morning, as he goes out
to the water, and you shall stand by the river’s bank to meet him. And take in
your hand the rod, which was turned into a serpent. (Exodus
7:16) “And you shall say to him,
‘יהוה the Elohim of the Heḇrews has sent me to you,
saying, “Let My people go, so that they serve me in the wilderness,” but see,
until now you have not listened! (Exodus 7:17) ‘Thus said יהוה, “By
this you know that I am יהוה. See, I am striking the waters
which are in the river with the rod that is in my hand, and they shall be
turned to blood, (Exodus 7:18) and the fish in
the river shall die. And the river shall stink, and the Mitsrites shall find it
impossible to drink the water of the river.” ’ ” (Exodus
7:19) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, “Say to Aharon,
‘Take your rod and stretch out your hand over the waters of Mitsrayim, over
their streams, over their rivers, over their ponds, and over all their pools of
water, that they become blood. And there shall be blood in all the land of
Mitsrayim, both in wooden and in stone containers.’ ” (Exodus 7:20) And Mosheh and Aharon did so, as יהוה commanded. And he lifted up the rod and struck the waters
that were in the river, in the eyes of Pharaoh and in the eyes of his servants.
And all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood. (Exodus 7:21)
And the fish that were in the river died, and the river stank, and the
Mitsrites were unable to drink the water of the river. And the blood was in all
the land of Mitsrayim. (Exodus 7:22) And the magicians of Mitsrayim did the same
with their magic. And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not listen
to them, as יהוה had said. (Exodus
7:23) And Pharaoh turned and went
into his house, and his heart was not moved by this either. (Exodus 7:24)
And all the Mitsrites dug all around the river for water to drink, for
they were unable to drink the water of the river. (Exodus
7:25) And seven days were
completed after יהוה had struck the river.
YHWH continues to
show Himself Mighty!
(Exodus 8:1)
And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘Thus
said יהוה, “Let my people go, so that they serve me. (Exodus 8:2)
“But if you refuse to let them go, see, I am smiting your entire border
with frogs. (Exodus 8:3) “And the river shall swarm with frogs, which
shall go up and shall come into your house, and into your bedroom, and on your
bed, and into the houses of your servants, and on your people, and into your
ovens, and into your kneading bowls, (Exodus 8:4)
and the frogs shall come up on you and on your people and on all your
servants.” ’ ” (Exodus 8:5) and יהוה
said to Mosheh, “Say to Aharon, and ‘Stretch out your hand with your rod over
the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up on
the land of Mitsrayim.’ ” (Exodus 8:6) So
Aharon stretched out his hand over the waters of Mitsrayim, and the frogs came
up, and covered the land of Mitsrayim. (Exodus 8:7) And the magicians did so with their magic,
and brought up frogs on the land of Mitsrayim. (Exodus
8:8) Pharaoh then called for Mosheh and Aharon, and said, “Pray to יהוה to take away the frogs from me and from my people, and I
shall let the people go to slaughter to יהוה.” (Exodus 8:9)
And Mosheh said to Pharaoh, “Explain yourself to me: When am I to pray
for you, and for your servants, and for your people, to destroy the frogs from
you and your houses, and remain only in the river?” (Exodus
8:10) So he said, “Tomorrow.” And
he said, “Let it be according to your word, so that you know that there is no
one like יהוה our Elohim. (Exodus
8:11) “And the frogs shall turn
aside from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your
people – they shall remain in the river only.” (Exodus
8:12) And Mosheh and Aharon went
out from Pharaoh. And Mosheh cried out to יהוה concerning
the frogs, which He had brought against Pharaoh. (Exodus
8:13) And יהוה
did according to the word of Mosheh. And the frogs died out of the houses, out
of the courtyards, and out of the fields. (Exodus
8:14) And they gathered them
together in heaps, and the land stank. (Exodus 8:15) And when Pharaoh saw that there was relief,
he hardened his heart and did not listen to them, as יהוה
had said. (Exodus 8:16) And יהוה said to Mosheh,
“Say to Aharon, ‘Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the land, so that
it becomes gnats in all the land of Mitsrayim.’ (Exodus 8:17) And they did so, and Aharon stretched out his
hand with his rod and struck the dust of the earth, and it became gnats on man
and beast. All the dust of the land became gnats in all the land of Mitsrayim. (Exodus 8:18)
And the magicians did similarly with their magic to bring forth gnats,
but they were unable. And there were gnats on man and beast. (Exodus 8:19)
The magicians then said to Pharaoh, “This is the finger of Elohim!” But
the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not listen to them, as יהוה had said. (Exodus 8:20) And יהוה said to Mosheh,
“Rise early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh as he comes out to the
water, and say to him, ‘Thus said יהוה, “Let my people go,
so that they serve me. (Exodus 8:21) “Or else,
if you do not let my people go, see, I am sending swarms of flies on you and
your servants, and on your people and into your houses. And the houses of the
Mitsrites shall be filled with swarms of flies, and also the ground on which
they stand. (Exodus 8:22) “And in that day I shall separate the land of
Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, so
that you know that I am יהוה in the midst of the land. (Exodus 8:23)
“And I shall put a distinction between my people and your people.
Tomorrow this sign shall be.” ’ ” (Exodus 8:24)
And יהוה did so, and thick swarms of flies came into the
house of Pharaoh, and into his servants’ houses, and into all the land of
Mitsrayim, and the land was ruined because of the swarms of flies. (Exodus 8:25)
Pharaoh then called for Mosheh and Aharon, and said, “Go, slaughter to
your Elohim in the land.” (Exodus 8:26) And Mosheh said, “It is not right to do so,
for we would be slaughtering the abomination of the Mitsrites to יהוה
our Elohim. See, if we slaughter the abomination of the Mitsrites before their
eyes, would they not stone us? (Exodus 8:27) “Let us go three days’ journey into the wilderness,
and then we shall slaughter to יהוה our Elohim, as He
commands us.” (Exodus 8:28) And Pharaoh said, “I am letting you go, then
you shall slaughter to יהוה your Elohim in the wilderness.
Only, do not go very far away! Pray for me.” (Exodus
8:29) And Mosheh said, “See, when
I leave you I shall pray to יהוה, and tomorrow the swarms
of flies shall depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. But
do not let Pharaoh again deceive, not to let the people go to slaughter to יהוה.” (Exodus 8:30) And Mosheh went out from Pharaoh and prayed
to יהוה. (Exodus 8:31) And יהוה did according
to the word of Mosheh and removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his
servants, and from his people. Not one remained. (Exodus
8:32) But Pharaoh hardened his
heart at this time too, and did not let the people go.
Getting Pharaoh to
admit his sin is difficult- I trust it will be easier for us in our speech and
thoughts of judgment and gossip of others---to REPENT
(Exodus 9:1)
And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Go in to Pharaoh and speak to him,
‘Thus said יהוה Elohim of the Heḇrews, “Let my people go,
so that they serve me. (Exodus 9:2) “For if you refuse to let them go, and still
hold them, (Exodus 9:3) see, the hand of יהוה is on your livestock in the field, on the horses, on the
donkeys, on the camels, on the cattle, and on the sheep – a very grievous
pestilence. (Exodus 9:4) “And יהוה shall separate
between the livestock of Yisra’ĕl and the livestock of Mitsrayim, and let no
matter die of all that belongs to the children of Yisra’ĕl.” ’ ” (Exodus 9:5) and יהוה set an
appointed time, saying, “Tomorrow יהוה is going to do this
word in the land.” (Exodus 9:6) And יהוה did this word
on the next day, and all the livestock of Mitsrayim died, but of the livestock
of the children of Yisra’ĕl, not one died. (Exodus
9:7) Then Pharaoh sent, and see,
not even one of the livestock of the Yisra’ĕlites was dead. But the heart of
Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people go. (Exodus 9:8) And יהוה said to Mosheh and Aharon, “Fill your hands with ashes from
a furnace and let Mosheh scatter it toward the heavens before the eyes of
Pharaoh. (Exodus 9:9) “And it shall become fine dust in all the
land of Mitsrayim and it shall cause boils that break out in sores on man and
beast in all the land of Mitsrayim.” (Exodus 9:10) So they took ashes from the furnace and stood
before Pharaoh, and Mosheh scattered them toward the heavens. And they caused
boils, breaking out in sores on man and beast. (Exodus
9:11) And the magicians were
unable to stand before Mosheh because of the boils, for the boils were on the
magicians and on all the Mitsrites. (Exodus 9:12) But יהוה hardened the
heart of Pharaoh, and he did not listen to them, as יהוה
had said to Mosheh. (Exodus 9:13) And יהוה said to Mosheh,
“Rise early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh, and say to him, ‘thus said
יהוה Elohim of the Heḇrews, “Let my people go, so that
they serve me, (Exodus 9:14) for at this time I
am sending all my plagues unto your heart, and on your servants and on your
people, so that you know that there is no one like me in all the earth. (Exodus 9:15)
“Now if I had stretched out my hand and struck you and your people with
pestilence, then you would have been cut off from the earth. (Exodus 9:16)
“And for this reason I have raised you up, in order to show you my
power, and in order to declare My Name in all the earth. (Exodus 9:17)
“You still exalt yourself against my people in that you do not let them
go! (Exodus 9:18) “See, tomorrow about this time I am causing
very heavy hail to rain down, such as has not been in Mitsrayim, from the day
of its founding until now. (Exodus 9:19) “And now send, bring your livestock to
safety, and all that you have in the field, for the hail shall come down on
every man and every beast which is found in the field and is not brought home,
and they shall die.” ’ ” (Exodus 9:20) Those
among the servants of Pharaoh who feared the word of יהוה
made their servants and livestock flee to the houses. (Exodus
9:21) But those who did not set
their heart on the word of יהוה left their servants and
livestock in the field. (Exodus 9:22) Then יהוה said to
Mosheh, “Stretch out your hand toward the heavens, and let there be hail in all
the land of Mitsrayim – on man, and on beast, and on every plant of the field,
throughout the land of Mitsrayim.” (Exodus 9:23) Then Mosheh stretched out his rod toward the
heavens. And יהוה sent thunder and hail, and fire came
down to the earth. And יהוה rained hail on the land of
Mitsrayim. (Exodus 9:24) Thus there came to be hail, and fire flashing
continually in the midst of the hail, very heavy, such as had not been in all
the land of Mitsrayim since it became a nation. (Exodus
9:25) And the hail smote in all
the land of Mitsrayim all that was in the field, both man and beast. And the
hail smote every plant of the field and broke every tree of the field. (Exodus 9:26)
Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Yisra’ĕl were, there
was no hail. (Exodus 9:27) Pharaoh then sent and called for Mosheh and
for Aharon, and said to them, “I have sinned this time. יהוה is righteous, and my people and I are wrong.
(Exodus 9:28)
“Pray to יהוה, for there has been enough of the
thunder and hail of Elohim. And I am letting you go, so that you stay no
longer.” (Exodus 9:29) And Mosheh said to him, “As soon as I go out
of the city, let me spread out my hands to יהוה, let the
thunder cease and the hail be no more, so that you know that the earth belongs
to יהוה. (Exodus 9:30) “But as for you and your servants, I know
that you do not yet fear before יהוה Elohim.” (Exodus 9:31)
And the flax and the barley were smitten, for the barley was in the head
and the flax was in bud. (Exodus 9:32) But the wheat and the spelt were not smitten,
for they were late crops. (Exodus 9:33) And Mosheh went out of the city from Pharaoh
and spread out his hands to יהוה, and the thunder and the
hail ceased, and the rain was not poured on the earth. (Exodus
9:34) And Pharaoh saw that the
rain, and the hail, and the thunder had ceased, yet he sinned again and he
hardened his heart, he and his servants. (Exodus 9:35) And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he
did not let the children of Yisra’ĕl go, as יהוה had said
through Mosheh.
We are SCATTERED
around the world but being dead dry bones – we are awakened and coming to LIFE
and becoming His WITNESSES!
(Ezekiel 28:25)
‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “When I have gathered the house of Yisra’ĕl from the
peoples among whom they are scattered, I shall be set-apart in them before the
eyes of the gentiles. And they shall dwell in their own land, which I gave to my
servant Yaʽaqoḇ. (Ezekiel 28:26) “And they shall dwell safely, and build
houses, and plant vineyards, and dwell safely, when I execute judgments on all
those around them who despise them. And they shall know that I am יהוה their Elohim.” ’ ” (Ezekiel 29:1) in
the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the twelfth of the month, the word of יהוה came to
me, saying, (Ezekiel 29:2) “Son of man, set
your face against Pharaoh the sovereign of Mitsrayim, and prophesy against him,
and against Mitsrayim, all of it. (Ezekiel 29:3) “Speak, and you shall say, ‘Thus said the
Master יהוה, “See, I am against you, O Pharaoh Sovereign
of Mitsrayim, O great monster who lies in the midst of his rivers, who has
said, ‘My River is my own, and I, I have made it for myself.’ (Ezekiel 29:4)
“And I shall put hooks in your jaws, and I shall make the fish of your
rivers cling to your scales. And I shall bring you up out of the midst of your rivers,
and all the fish in your rivers cling to your scales. (Ezekiel
29:5) “And I shall leave you in
the wilderness, you and all the fish of your rivers. On the face of the field
you shall fall, and you shall not be picked up or gathered. I shall give you as
food to the beasts of the field and to the birds of the heavens. (Ezekiel 29:6)
“And all the inhabitants of Mitsrayim shall know that I am יהוה, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of
Yisra’ĕl. (Ezekiel 29:7) “When they grasped you with the hand, you
broke and tore all their shoulders. When they leaned on you, you broke and made
all their loins shake.” (Ezekiel 29:8) ‘Therefore thus said the Master יהוה, “See, I am bringing a sword upon you and shall cut off
from you man and beast. (Ezekiel 29:9) “And the land of Mitsrayim shall become a
desert and a waste. And they shall know that I am יהוה,
because he said, ‘The River is mine, and I have made it.’ (Ezekiel 29:10)
“Therefore see, I am against you and against your rivers, and shall make
the land of Mitsrayim an utter waste and a desert, from Miḡdol to Sewĕnĕh, as
far as the border of Kush. (Ezekiel 29:11) “No foot of man shall pass through it, or
foot of beast pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited for forty years. (Ezekiel 29:12)
“And I shall make the land of Mitsrayim a desert in the midst of the
lands that are waste. And among the cities that are ruined, her cities shall be
a waste forty years. And I shall scatter the Mitsrites among the nations, and I
shall disperse them throughout the lands.” (Ezekiel
29:13) ‘For thus said the Master יהוה, “At the end of forty years I shall gather the Mitsrites
from the peoples among whom they were scattered. (Ezekiel
29:14) “And I shall turn back the
captivity of Mitsrayim and I shall bring them back to the land of Pathros, to
the land of their birth, and there they shall be a lowly reign, (Ezekiel 29:15) being the lowliest of reigns, and
never again exalt itself above the nations. And I shall make them few so as not
to rule over the nations. (Ezekiel 29:16) “And no longer is it to be the refuge of the
house of Yisra’ĕl, bringing to remembrance their crookedness when they turned
to follow them. And they shall know that I am the Master יהוה.”
’ ” (Ezekiel 29:17) And it came to be in the
twenty-seventh year, in the first month, on the first of the month, that the
word of יהוה came to me, saying, (Ezekiel
29:18) “Son of man, Neḇuḵaḏretstsar sovereign of Baḇel made his army
to serve a great service against Tsor, every head was made bald and every
shoulder worn bare. But he and his army received no reward from Tsor, for the
service he served against it. (Ezekiel 29:19) “Therefore thus said the Master יהוה, ‘See, I am giving the land of Mitsrayim to
Neḇuḵaḏretstsar sovereign of Baḇel. And he shall take away her wealth, take
her spoil, and remove her pillage. And it shall be a reward for his army. (Ezekiel 29:20)
‘I have given him the land of Mitsrayim as a reward for his labor,
because they worked for me,’ declares the Master יהוה. (Ezekiel 29:21)
‘In that day I shall make the horn of the house of Yisra’ĕl to spring
forth, while I open your mouth to speak in their midst. And they shall know
that I am יהוה.’ ”
Let’s become good,
moldable clay in our Master’s hands! (2Ti 2:19) However, the solid foundation of Elohim
stands firm, having this seal, “יהוה knows those who are His,” Bem. 16:5 and, “Let everyone who names the Name
of Messiah turn away from unrighteous-ness.” (2Ti
2:20) But in a large house there
are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay, some unto
value and some unto no value. (2Ti 2:21) If, then, anyone cleanses himself from these matters,
he shall be a vessel unto value, having been set apart, of good use to the
Master, having been prepared for every good work. (2Ti
2:22) And flee from the lusts of
youth, but pursue righteousness, belief, love, and peace with those calling on
the Master out of a clean heart. (2Ti 2:23) But refuse foolish and stupid questions,
knowing that they breed quarrels.
(Rom 9:14) what, then, shall we say? Is there
unrighteousness with Elohim? Let it not be! (Rom 9:15) For He says to Mosheh, “I shall favor
whomever I favor, and I shall have compassion on whomever I have compassion.” (Rom 9:16) So,
then, it is not of him, who is wishing, nor of him who is running, but of
Elohim who shows favor. (Rom 9:17) For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “For this
same purpose I have raised you up, to show my power in you, and that My Name be
declared in all the earth.” (Rom 9:18) So, then, He favors whom He wishes, and He
hardens whom He wishes. (Rom 9:19) Then you shall say to me, “Why does He still
find fault? Who has resisted His counsel?” (Rom 9:20) But who are you, O man, to talk back to
Elohim? Shall that which is formed say to him who formed it, “Why have you made
me like this?” (Rom 9:21)
Does not the potter have authority over the clay, from the same lump to
make one vessel for value and another not for value? (Rom 9:22) And
if Elohim, desiring to show wrath, and to make His power known, with much
patience tolerated the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction, (Rom 9:23) and that He might make known the riches of
His esteem on vessels of compassion, which He had prepared beforehand for
esteem, (Rom 9:24) even whom He called, not
only us of the Yehuḏim, but also of the gentiles?
