(Pro 3:5) Trust in יהוה with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; (Pro 3:6) know (trust) Him in all your ways, And He makes all your paths straight. (Pro 3:7) Do not be wise in your own eyes1; Fear יהוה and turn away from evil2. Footnotes: 1Isa. 5:21 2Job 28:28.
This morning about 1:30 am Father woke me and showed me that I must re-teach about His gifts and our need for them. Gosh it seems of urgent importance today to do a review about the gifts available from Heaven- they are available because YHWH knew we would need them- especially in our times when the enemy is so well funded and advanced technologically- Without His gifts flowing through us- BE SURE OF THIS- OUR TERSTIMONY WILL BE SILENCED AND CUT SHORT! BUT- it doesn’t have to be cut short, we can walk out our DESTINY and PURPOSE- IF we will humble ourselves and receive or we will be humbled shortly- uhhh- even more that we may presently be- ha ha- OUR KING IS IN CHARGE- so let’s make sure we are found obeying Him; that is we must first HEAR AND THEN OBEY! (She’mah O’ Israel) I pray you loved one, are one who has ears to hear- that you may follow the hearing with your humbled obedience and produce fruit that will remain as this alone glorifies our Father in Heaven! If we think we have all the gifting we need we are deceived already. I pray you and I become so thirsty for His Ruach and hungry for His word that we are FILLED with His very presence! (John 7:37) And on the last day, the great day of the festival, יהושע stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me, and let him who believes in me drink. (John 7:38) “As the Scripture said, out of His innermost shall flow rivers of living water.”1 Footnote: 1Isa. 44:3, Jer. 2:13, Jer. 17:13, Zechariah. 14:8, Ps. 36:8,9, Prov.14:27, John 4:10, John 6:63, 1 Cor. 10:4, Rev. 7:17, Rev. 21:6, Rev. 22:1 & 17. (John 7:39) And this He said concerning the Spirit, which those believing in Him were about to receive, for the Set-apart Spirit was not yet given, 1 because יהושע was not yet esteemed. Footnote: 1Ezekielk. 36:26-27, Joel 2:28-32, Acts 1:4-8, Acts 2:4 & 33, Acts 10:44-47, Acts 11:15-16, Eph. 5:18.
Further, Yahshua affirms that all who are hungry and thirsty for Him and His set-apart Ruach- will be filled: (Mat 5:3) “Blessed are the poor in spirit, because theirs is the reign of the heavens. (Mat 5:4) “Blessed are those who mourn, because they shall be comforted. (Mat 5:5) “Blessed are the meek, because they shall inherit the earth.1 Footnote: 1Ps. 37:9, 11, 22, 29, 34. (Mat 5:6) “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,1 because they shall be filled. Footnote: 1Isa. 55:1-2, Mt. 4:4, John 6:48-51. (Mat 5:7) “Blessed are the compassionate, because they shall obtain compassion. (Mat 5:8) “Blessed are the clean in heart, 1 because they shall see Elohim. Footnote: 1Ps. 24:3-4. (Mat 5:9) “Blessed are the peacemakers, because they shall be called sons of Elohim. (Mat 5:10) “Blessed are those persecuted for righteousness’1 sake, because theirs is the reign of the heavens. Footnote: 11Pet. 3:14. (Mat 5:11) “Blessed are you when they reproach and persecute you, and falsely say every wicked word against you, for my sake. (Mat 5:12) “Rejoice and be glad, because your reward in the heavens is great. For in this way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
REMEMBER LOVED ONE- YHWH is in control and only allowing trials to determine who His bride is. She WILL make herself ready. He came once to pay the whoring wife’s penalty of death, took the bitter water for us, and provided the restoration of the fallen bride- He is coming again for His bride and not the bride without light and oil for her lamp! So rejoice again I say rejoice- we die to self that He may increase in us! DO NOT FEAR!
Loved One, who are we really? Were we really born for such a time as this or we fast asleep thinking the Creator made a mistake about us? Is this really the “End of the Age”? These questions are being answered by unfolding events and by our testimony- that is what we say and what we do about these unfolding events. We shall overcome by the Blood of the Lamb of YHWH and our Testimony or not overcome at all. All Creation is groaning for the sons and daughters of YHWH to manifest. Let’s have an attitude adjustment and receive His gifts- (Or we will only wish we had when our testimony is cut short!)
(1Pe 4:11) If anyone speaks, let it be as the Words of Elohim. If anyone serves, let it be as with the strength which Elohim provides, so that Elohim might be praised in it all through יהושע Messiah, to who belongs the esteem and the rule forever and ever. Amĕn. (1Pe 4:12) Beloved ones, do not be surprised (think it not strange) at the fiery trial that is coming upon you, to try you, as though some unusual matter has befallen you, (1Pe 4:13) but as you share Messiah’s sufferings,1 rejoice, in order that you might rejoice exultingly at the revelation of His esteem. Footnote: 1Rom. 8:17, 2 Cor. 1:5, Philip 3:10. (1Pe 4:14) If you are reproached for the Name of Messiah, you are blessed, because the Spirit of esteem and of Elohim rests upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is praised.
Seems we will be tried by fire to see if we will walk by His Ruach (Spirit) or not. Walking in His gifts and power is what allows us to walk in His love and keep the word of His perseverance! (Rev 3:10) 'Because you have kept the word of my perseverance, I also will keep you from the hour of testing, that hour which is about to come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth. (Rev 3:11) 'I am coming quickly; hold fast what you have, so that no one will take your crown. (Rev 3:12) 'He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my Elohim, and he will not go out from it anymore; and I will write on him the name of my Elohim, and the name of the city of my Elohim, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from my Elohim, and my new name. (Rev 3:13) 'He who has an ear, let him hear what the Ruach HaKodesh says to the assemblies.' (Remember this is not a pre-tribulation rapture, He promises to protect and use us even in the fiery furnace- so let’s be usable and produce fruit that will remain!)
Recently after prayer for a loved one, I heard a strong word from Heaven;: “There is no reconciliation apart from repentance.” That’s why Yahchanan’s name (John the Baptist) means Yah’s mercy (Yah Chanan) in Hebrew. He came teaching us to REPENT! Show forth fruit worthy of repentance. In our anger, we sin not- we don’t let the Sun go down on our anger! We allow no bitter root as YHWH alone is the Law Giver and Judge, so we release them completely to His judging. Bitter roots grow and defile us- so that is not an option-WE TAKE NO OFFENSE- we forgive even if they did evil against us- we pray for those that hate us and do us evil and bless those that curse us- ha ha- that keeps some of us pretty busy blessing them! It is about us turning our stiff necks and obeying Him with action. We must forgive, love and be forgiven as we are all imperfect; so let’s be sure we do our part to forgive, repent of our transgressions against others and our Elohim. Sinners always have their courage removed- they will not be allowed to even look you in the eyes; frankly YHWH removes His presence as we disobey Him. We are required to repent and turn and FOLLOW HIM! Understand if we will not obey Him from a heart of love we will be fearful! I believe this study is so important much will be reviewed now from the last 4 weeks!
We must clean up and make ourselves ready as His BRIDE! We cannot follow those of various religious systems who are described here as this sounds a lot like 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. Why are these days so critical and we must truly repent in sackcloth and ashes so to speak? I believe we are in the last days Laodicean age that Yahshua warned us about: (Rev 3:14) "To the angel of the assembly in Laodicea write: The Amen, the faithful and true Witness, the Beginning of the creation of YHWH, says this: (Rev 3:15) 'I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; I wish that you were cold or hot. (Rev 3:16) 'Because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold; I’ll spit you out of my mouth. (Rev 3:17) 'Because you say, "I am rich, and have become wealthy, and have need of nothing," and you do not know that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked, (Rev 3:18) I advise you to buy from me gold refined by fire (faith-true riches) so that you may become rich, and white garments (Pure and undefiled robes of righteousness) so that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness will not be revealed; and eye salve (spiritual eyes opened) to anoint your eyes so that you may see. (Rev 3:19) 'Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent. (Rev 3:20) 'Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with me. (Rev 3:21) 'He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with me on my throne, as I also overcame and sat down with my Father on His throne.
So let’s review where our study led us these last few weeks- the importance of not fearing and the provisions YHWH has made for us to be over comers! Two weeks ago we discussed how intimacy in worship brings His presence because He inhabits the praises of His people! Week before last we added the POWER TWINS for overcoming fear and the schemes of our enemy. Last week, loved one, we addressed another method of overcoming fear! (Fear comes when we trust hasatan’s power to overcome us with evil rather than us trusting in Mighty YHWH to deliver us!) Obviously spirits of the enemy hasatan cannot hang around when YHWH is present- just not possible! He informs us to put on the spirit (garment) of praise for the spirit(s) of for the spirit of heaviness- So we win by entering His presence!
We understand these fiery trials are coming now and we recognize that by facing them and growing spiritually we and have been created to overcome- but only as we learn to walk by the spirit and not the natural flesh man. Loved Ones however; will never hear us, nor receive His overcoming power until they see us loving them. Then we and our loved ones can really fear not! That’s why Yahshua tells us when He sees us loving our brothers and sisters, only then are we really His disciples! If they don’t have ears to hear us because of our lack of mercy, compassion, and love; we will have failed as followers of Messiah Yahshua and can produce no fruit that remains.
Again, remember all things are possible for YHWH, the only reason they are not possible for you and I is our UNBELIEF! So should we not make every active effort on our parts to rid ourselves of all UNBELIEF? What gets rid of unbelief? PRAYER AND FASTING according to Yahshua! We get rid of our unbelief by prayer and fasting! Prayer AND Fasting, not prayer without fasting or fasting without prayer- THESE ARE YHWH’S POWER TWINS! If we really care about our loved ones we will seek YHWH’s face with prayer and fasting and quit worrying- some have been taken captive to do hasatan’s will- they are blinded by the god of this world- the gates of hell will open and they will be released to make a right choice only when we get rid of our unbelief and tear down kick down the gates of hell.…Yahshua promises in Revelation to throw the fearful (worriers) into hell with the adulterers, murderers etc. Why? Because, if that is who we become under great fiery trials we have trusted the power of hasatan to do us harm, more than the power of YHWH to deliver us! Could this apply to you and me? NOT IF we pray and fast and overcome! So let’s be busy about our Father’s business and do it! Remember; Yahshua’s instructions are Hebraic or Hebrew thought. It is not about mental assent like Greek thought. It is about being a doer of the word and not a hearer only deceiving ourselves. It is She’mah O’ Israel or HEAR AND OBEY! Let’s learn to fast and pray and remove our unbelief!
It is of VAST IMPORTANCE that you and I overcome our fears and trials!
(Rev 21:7) He that overcomes shall inherit all things; and I will be his Elohim, and he shall be my son. (Rev 21:8) But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Due to some Loved Ones misunderstanding that praying in tongues must be understood, it may sound like gibberish to some but it is the highest form of trust, (We don’t need to understand everything as this is secret message for YHWH only- that way hasatan cannot understand either and scheme against the prayer! so let’s review YHWH’S GREATEST TOOL for OVERCOMING fear and all the schemes of the enemy. When we pray in an unknown tongue- (Hint- UNKNOWN) NO MAN UNDERSTANDS! We offer mysteries to YHWH- these are questions that the Ruach knows we need answered. This is different from the GIFT OF TONGUES for the assembly and for their benefit. There will always be interpretation for that gift- but remember- this gift only comes when the Spirit WILLS and is not for our personal edification (like praying in the spirit and unknown tongues is) but all nine of the GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT are for the edification of others. Example; one time I was near Jerusalem and was invited to pray for a man and his wife who had led many Orthodox Jewish people to faith in Messiah- Well you can imagine the spiritual warfare involved and how they were “spent” and weary. Invited to pray for them as I had been on an extended fast- but yet not knowing their needs, I laid hands on both husband and wife and prayed in the Ruach as YHWH gave utterance- I did not understand what I was praying…after a good ten minutes of praying like this I knew it was done- I looked at the lady who I then noticed was weeping. I thought- goodness what’s up with that? She spoke with tears streaming down- “I didn’t know you spoke fluent Hebrew—you answered questions that only G-d knew I had.” My friends then told her—ha ha this man does not know any Hebrew- he only knows the Chief Cornerstone of ALL HEBREWS- YAHSHUA the Messiah! If I had not trusted YHWH- no way would I have yielded my tongue- I would have been so self aware that I would not have even really known what or how to pray as I ought! You cannot make this gift happen; this is as the Spirit wills for the benefit of others- but we can start (by faith and trust) in our own prayer language.
The praying in the spirit for personal edification is available to all who will yield and trust YHWH that He will not give us a snake or scorpion (representing the demonic realm as Luke 10:19-20 declares) This particular gift has been much maligned and attacked by religion; and doctrines of devils, and hasatan’s entire battle forces. We believers have been lied to throughout the ages that this gift is useless, only available for a select few (of which you and I are not of course), is passed away, or even demonic. Why was everything the enemy had assigned to wipe out this “secret weapon” given by YHWH? Obviously, the enemy of our souls wants us defenseless. Think praying in the spirit is Demonic? Hmm. Yahshua warned us to NOT assign the works of the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) to demons. Let’s look closer: (Mat 12:22) Then they brought to Him one who was demon-possessed, blind and dumb. And He healed him, so that the blind and dumb man both spoke and saw. (Mat 12:23) And all the crowds were amazed and said, “Is this the Son of Dawiḏ?” (Mat 12:24) But when the Pharisees heard it they said, “This one does not cast out demons except by Beʽelzebul, the ruler of the demons.” (Comment- assigning the works of the Ruach HaKodesh – Holy Spirit to the work of demons) (Mat 12:25) And יהושע knew their thoughts, and said to them, “Every Kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand. (Mat 12:26) “And if Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then does his Kingdom stand? (Mat 12:27) “And if I, by Beʽelzebul, do cast out demons, by whom do your sons cast them out? Because of this they shall be your judges. (Mat 12:28) “But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of Elohim, then the reign of Elohim has come upon you. (Mat 12:29) “Or how is one able to enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he shall plunder his house. (Mat 12:30) “He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters abroad. (Mat 12:31) “Because of this I say to you, all sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven men. (Mat 12:32) “And whoever speaks a word against the Son of Aḏam, it shall be forgiven him, but whoever speaks against the Set-apart Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come. (Mat 12:33) “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree rotten and its fruit rotten, for a tree is known by its fruit. (Mat 12:34) “You brood of adders (Vipers)! How are you- who are evil 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).”
Seems we might want to realign ourselves with what Yahshua says and be very careful to not speak our own thoughts and ideas and religion which assign YHWH’s mighty and miraculous gifts and works to hasatan and his demons. We should not be so prideful and arrogant to consider we have no need for this special weapon and gift of OVERCOMING. Are we so captured by hasatan that we prefer to be “accepted” by our culture, family and friends rather than submitting ourselves to Yah’s plans for our lives here? Choice time loved one: Do we want to be accepted and approved by YHWH’s favor or our family and friends? He is asking us to make the choice. We will fall on Him (The word made flesh that dwelled among us) and die to our own person (ality) or He will fall on us and pulverize us! (Mat 21:43) Therefore say I unto you, the kingdom of YHWH shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. (Mat 21:44) And whosoever shall fall on this stone (The Word of YHWH- Yahshua- the Chief Cornerstone) shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
Okay let’s continue to review as we again move deeper and discover the absolute guaranteed victory gift; Praying in the Spirit or unknown tongues- where it is guaranteed to have no known interpretation. These are unknown tongues for personal edification or charging your spiritual battery.
How do we build up our trust/faith and overcome fear? HOW DO WE KEEP OURSELVES WALKING IN HIS LOVE? We must yield our tongues to Him as shown below Loved One! We will walk according to our own desires and lusts or yield to Him here!
(Jud 1:14) And Ḥanoḵ, the seventh from Adam, also prophesied of these, saying, “See, יהוה comes with His myriads of set-apart ones, (Jud 1:15) to execute judgment on all, to punish all who are wicked among them concerning all their wicked works which they have committed in a wicked way, and concerning all the harsh words which wicked sinners have spoken against Him.” (Jud 1:16) These are grumblers, complainers, who walk according to their own lusts, and their mouth speaks proudly, admiring faces of others for the sake of gain. (Jud 1:17) But you, beloved ones, remember the words spoken before by the emissaries of our Master יהושע Messiah, (Jud 1:18) because they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own wicked lusts. (Jud 1:19) These are the ones who cause divisions, not having the Spirit. (Jud 1:20) But you, beloved ones, building yourselves up on your most set-apart belief, praying in the Set-apart (Holy) Spirit, (Jud 1:21) keep yourselves in the love of Elohim, looking for the compassion of our Master יהושע Messiah unto everlasting life.
Earnestly Seek His gifts- if they were demonic, had no power to help us, or were passed away- would He ask us to earnestly seek them? Only a Doctrine of Demons would say so…also note- this IS how you pursue love, because this is how we know we are even praying as we ought to be and without ceasing is now possible with this wonderful gift available to all for our personal building up our faith and trust, to be His witnesses and produce any fruit that will actually remain after us. This is how we pursue love.
(1Co 14:1) Pursue love, and earnestly seek the spiritual gifts, but rather that you prophesy. (1Co 14:2) For he who is speaking in a (unknown) tongue does not speak to men but to YHWH Elohim, for no man understands, but in the Spirit he speaks secrets (Mysteries). (Comment: these mysteries are questions and things we must learn and be downloaded answers about securing our victory that Yahshua paid for- basically our spirit man is asking the perfect questions and YHWH is downloading the answers, furthermore how could there be interpretation if NO MAN UNDERSTANDS? Tongues for an assembly will always have interpretation but that particular gift is one of the nine gifts of the Spirit which only operates as the Spirit wills and is for edifying the Assembly.) (1Co 14:3) But he who is prophesying speaks up building and encouragement and comfort to men. (1Co 14:4) He who is speaking in an (unknown prayer) tongue builds up or edifies himself, but he who is prophesying builds up the assembly. (1Co 14:5) Now I wish you all spoke with tongues, but rather that you might prophesy, for he who is prophesying is greater than he who is speaking with tongues, unless he interprets, so that the assembly might receive up-building.
By an act of our submission of our own wills we can receive and yield to our own prayer language which no man understands! (Available to all and not an act AS THE SPIRIT WILLS as are the nine gifts of the Spirit including Tongues with interpretation listed in 1 Corinthians Chapter 12 which are all supernatural power and revelatory gifts) Let’s look at how we can walk in His power and become His witness as that is the only way He has provided for us to produce fruit that remains. Yahshua warns us to not reject this gift due to being fearful we might receive a demon…remember Luke 10:19 as He gave us power to overcome all the power of the enemy and trample on snakes and scorpions-(representing the demonic forces of hasatan.
Want to be a witness? The promise is for whosoever will submit and receive His power!
(Act 1:8) “But you shall receive power when the Set-apart Spirit has come upon you, and (Then and only then) you shall be my witnesses in Yerushalayim, and in all Yehuḏah and Shomeron, and to the end of the earth.” (Act 1:9) And having said this, while they were looking on, He was taken up, and a cloud hid Him from their sight.
Everyone who asks (submission to the Word and desire allows us to receive His power to overcome fear and all the demonic realm)
(Luke 11:9) “And I say to you: ask and it shall be given to you, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you. (Luke 11:10) “For everyone asking receives, and he who is seeking finds, and to him who is knocking it shall be opened. (Luke 11:11) “And what father among you whose son asks for bread shall give him a stone, or if he asks for a fish shall give him a snake instead of a fish, (Luke 11:12) or if he asks for an egg shall give him a scorpion? (Luke 11:13) “If you then, being wicked, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father from heaven give the Set-apart (Holy) Spirit to those asking Him!”
Yahshua is the Baptizer in the Ruach HaKodesh!
(John 1:30) “This is he of whom I said, ‘After me comes a Man who has become before me, for He was before me.’1 Footnote: 1See v. 15. (John 1:31) “And I did not know Him, but that He might be revealed to Yisra’ĕl, therefore I came immersing in water.” (John 1:32) And Yoḥanan bore witness, saying, “I have seen the Spirit coming down from heaven like a dove and remain on Him. (John 1:33) “And I did not know Him, but He who sent me to immerse in water said to me, ‘Upon whom you see the Spirit coming down and remaining on Him, this is He who immerses (baptizes- mikvah) in the Set-apart Spirit.’
Rivers of Living Water are the prayers that are Ruach Ha Kodesh (Holy Spirit directed Unknown tongues) as they go downstream and provide victory to every situation- even when we don’t know what to pray for as we ought- He does and has never missed it on a prayer- so we should be smart enough to yield our own tongues which James declares are likened to the rudder to our ship and as a bridle is to a horse gives us our direction since no man can tame his tongue only YHWH can and that only by our permission and yielding! Rivers are better than a “well of salvation” as a well can produce fruit for you and a few (Maybe a small village or household) but a river goes downstream and produces life and victory everywhere it goes! Hallelu-YAH! Remember that in Acts 2, THEY SPOKE (ALL of them present) as YHWH gave the utterance! You too have to open your mouth to speak and allow Him to give the utterance- He will not force you to yield and surrender- You are allowed to surrender or not- try lifting up hands without wrath or doubt and yield- DON’T JUDGE SMALL BERGINNINGS OR PARTICULAR SOUNDS OR GROANINGS- Just yield your tongue and trust Him and ask Him to mikvah (Baptize) you to overflowing in His Spirit and His goodness as you forgive everyone who has done evil against you- that you may also be forgiven and receive by faith and trusting Him as HE really IS ALIVE and will baptize you to overflowing rivers in His Ruach! Remember Loved One. He is no respecter of persons as Kefa (Peter) stated; and as He told Jeremiah- “You have seen correctly Jeremiah- I am watching over my word to perform it!” (Jeremiah1:12) And יהוה said to me, “You have seen well, for I am watching over y word to do it.”
Concerning the wonderful gift of praying in the Spirit to overcome; Yahshua showed me something many years ago with the following analogy; “Son, those who can read books and never do have no advantage over the person who CANNOT read; likewise those who can pray in the Spirit and do not, have NO ADVANTAGE over the heathen who CANNOT!”
This is so important as to what fruit we will produce during the Days of Jacob’s Troubles (Not the Jews only Troubles; all who are grafted in by faith and trust) we, by order of my Master Yahshua, will once again review YHWH’s 9 Supernatural Gifts available to believers as the Ruach HaKodesh wills for the benefit of others: 1 Corinthians 12- Understand you will need all His gifts to produce the fruit you were created for as we move rapidly into Jacob’s Trouble. As we spend time reading and understanding, you will be trusted with more of His gifts to benefit others. I will share an excerpt from Kathy Walters I think you will enjoy. No, she does not know Torah, but we need what those have and they need what we have. It is all about Moses and Elijah at the transfiguration. Moses TRUTH represents and Elijah represents SPIRIT!
We will walk by the Ruach HaKodesh and demonstrate His power in these days OR we will not walk long! He has provided the means to produce fruit that will remain!
(1Co 2:1) And, when I came to you, brothers, I did not come with excellence of speech or wisdom, proclaiming to you the witness of Elohim. (1Co 2:2) For I resolved not to know any matter among you except יהושע Messiah and Him impaled. (1Co 2:3) And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. (1Co 2:4) And my word and my preaching were not with persuasive words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, (1Co 2:5) in order that your belief should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of Elohim.
As we read and understand and make ourselves available to walk in His 9 spiritual gifts they are and will be appropriated for the benefit of others! (Let’s be usable Loved One!)
(1Co 12:1) Now concerning spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be uninformed. (Ignorant) (1Co 12:2) You know that when you were pagans you were led astray to mute idols, however you were led. (1Co 12:3) Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking in the Spirit of Elohim ever says "Yahshua is accursed!" and no one can say "Yahshua is Master" except in the Holy Spirit. (1Co 12:4) Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; (1Co 12:5) and there are varieties of service, but the same Master; (1Co 12:6) and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same Elohim who empowers them all in everyone. (1Co 12:7) To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. (1Co 12:8) For to one is given through the Spirit the utterance (Word) of wisdom, and to another the utterance (Word) of knowledge according to the same Spirit, (1Co 12:9) to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, (1Co 12:10) to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between (Discerning) spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. (1Co 12:11) All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as He wills. (1Co 12:12) For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Messiah. (1Co 12:13) For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body--Yehudans or Goyim, (Scattered Tribes of Ephraim) slaves or free--and all were made to drink of one Spirit. (1Co 12:14) For the body does not consist of one member but of many. (1Co 12:15) If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body," that would not make it any less a part of the body. (1Co 12:16) And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body," that would not make it any less a part of the body. (1Co 12:17) If the whole body were an eye, where would be the sense of hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell? (1Co 12:18) But as it is, YHWH arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose. (1Co 12:19) If all were a single member, where would the body be? (1Co 12:20) As it is, there are many parts, yet one body. (1Co 12:21) The eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no need of you," nor again the head to the feet, "I have no need of you." (1Co 12:22) On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, (1Co 12:23) and on those parts of the body that we think are less honorable we bestow the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty, (1Co 12:24) which our more presentable parts do not require. But YHWH has so composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it, (1Co 12:25) that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another. (1Co 12:26) If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together. (1Co 12:27) Now you are the body of Messiah and individually members of it. (1Co 12:28) And YHWH has appointed in the Assembly of believer’s first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of tongues. (1Co 12:29) Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles? (1Co 12:30) Do all possess gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? (Only as the Spirit wills and different from praying in the Spirit where no man understands and builds up your trust and faith)) (1Co 12:31) But earnestly desire the higher gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way.
The nine gifts of the Ruach HaKodesh are prophecy, tongues, and interpretation of tongues which enables us to talk like YHWH. The word of knowledge the word of wisdom and the discerning of spirits that enables us to think like YHWH; then gift of supernatural faith, healing and miracles which enables us to act like YHWH. Some religious people say that the fruits are what we are to seek and the gifts have finished. Others say that as long as a person is gifted and anointed their character and behavior is secondary. Does hasatan really think that we are that prideful and arrogant that he can continue to keep these gifts from us by his doctrines of devils? I and I believe you also intend to fulfill our destiny and purpose for being on Planet Earth, and we will need all the fruits and gifts to function in our lives to fulfill His plan and purpose for our lives!
With that understanding ESTABLISHED in our hearts and minds; that YHWH ALONE has made supernatural provision for us to be DOERS of HIS WORD; NOT HEARER’S ONLY, we turn to this week’s Torah Scriptures.
This week’s Torah Scriptures: Vayigash “And he drew near”
Genesis 44:18-47:27; Ezekiel 37:15-28; Luke 6:9-12
(Gen 44:18) And Yehuḏah came near to him and said, “O my master, please let your servant speak a word in my master’s hearing, and do not let your displeasure burn against your servant, for you are like Pharaoh. (Gen 44:19) “My master asked his servants, saying, ‘Have you a father or a brother?’ (Gen 44:20) “And we said to my master, ‘We have a father, an old man, and a young child of his old age, and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother’s children, and his father loves him.’ (Gen 44:21) “And you said to your servants, ‘Bring him down to me, and let me set my eyes on him.’ (Gen 44:22) “And we said to my master, ‘The boy is not able to leave his father, for if he leaves his father, his father shall die.’ (Gen 44:23) “But you said to your servants, ‘Unless your youngest brother comes down with you, you do not see my face again.’ (Gen 44:24) “And it came to be, when we went up to your servant my father, that we told him the words of my master. (Gen 44:25) “And our father said, ‘Go back and buy us a little food.’ (Gen 44:26) “But we said, ‘We are not able to go down. If our youngest brother is with us, then we shall go down, for we are not able to see the man’s face unless our youngest brother is with us.’ (Gen 44:27) “Then your servant my father said to us, ‘You know that my wife bore me two sons, (Gen 44:28) and the one went out from me, and I said, “Truly, he is torn, torn to pieces!” And I have not seen him since. (Gen 44:29) ‘And if you take this one from me too, and harm comes to him, you shall bring down my grey hair with evil to the grave.’ (Gen 44:30) “And now, if I come to your servant my father and the boy is not with us – since his own life is bound up in his life – (Gen 44:31) then it shall be, when he sees that the boy is not with us, that he shall die. So your servants shall bring down the grey hair of your servant our father with evil to the grave. (Gen 44:32) “For your servant went guaranty for the boy to my father, saying, ‘If I do not bring him back to you, then I shall be a sinner before my father forever.’ (Gen 44:33) “And now, please let your servant remain instead of the boy as a slave to my master, and let the boy go up with his brothers. (Gen 44:34) “For how do I go up to my father if the boy is not with me, lest I see the evil that would come upon my father?”
Fiery Trials are allowed that the Bride be purged and useful for the gathering of all 12 brothers!
(Gen 45:1) And Yosĕph was unable to restrain himself before all those who stood by him, and he called out, “Have everyone go out from me!” So no one stood with him while Yosĕph made himself known to his brothers. (Gen 45:2) And he wept aloud, and the Mitsrites and the house of Pharaoh heard it. (Gen 45:3) And Yosĕph said to his brothers, “I am Yosĕph, is my father still alive?” But his brothers were unable to answer him, for they trembled before him. (Gen 45:4) Then Yosĕph said to his brothers, “Please come near to me.” And when they came near, he said, “I am Yosĕph your brother, whom you sold into Mitsrayim. (Gen 45:5) “And now, do not be grieved nor displeased with yourselves because you sold me here, for Elohim sent me before you to preserve life. (Gen 45:6) “For two years now the scarcity of food has been in the land, and there are still five years in which there is neither plowing nor harvesting. (Gen 45:7) “And Elohim sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant in the earth, and to give life to you by a great escape. (Gen 45:8) “So then, you did not send me here, but Elohim. And He has set me for a father to Pharaoh, and master of his entire house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Mitsrayim. (Gen 45:9) “Hurry and go up to my father, and say to him, ‘Thus says your son Yosĕph, “Elohim has made me master of all Mitsrayim. Come down to me, do not delay. (Gen 45:10) “And you shall dwell in the land of Goshen, and be near to me, you and your children, your children’s children, your flocks and your herds, and all that you have. (Gen 45:11) “And I shall provide for you there, lest you and your household, and all that you have, come to poverty, because five years of scarcity of food are still to come.” ’ (Gen 45:12) “And look, your eyes and the eyes of my brother Binyamin see that it is my mouth that speaks to you. (Gen 45:13) “And you shall inform my father of all my esteem in Mitsrayim, and of all that you have seen. And you shall hurry and bring my father down here.” (Gen 45:14) And he fell on his brother Binyamin’s neck and wept, and Binyamin wept on his neck. (Gen 45:15) And he kissed all his brothers and wept over them, and after that his brothers spoke with him. (Gen 45:16) And the report of it was heard by the house of Pharaoh, saying, “The brothers of Yosĕph have come.” And it was good in the eyes of Pharaoh and in the eyes of his servants. (Gen 45:17) And Pharaoh said to Yosĕph, “Say to your brothers, ‘Do this: Load your beasts and go, enter the land of Kenaʽan, (Gen 45:18) and take your father and your households and come to me, and I give you the best of the land of Mitsrayim, and you eat the fat of the land. (Gen 45:19) ‘And you, you have been commanded, do this: Take wagons out of the land of Mitsrayim for your little ones and your wives. And you shall bring your father, and come. (Gen 45:20) ‘And do not be concerned about your goods, for the best of all the land of Mitsrayim is yours.’ ” (Gen 45:21) And the sons of Yisra’ĕl did so. And Yosĕph gave them wagons, according to the command of Pharaoh, and he gave them food for the journey. (Gen 45:22) He gave to all of them, to each man, changes of garments, but to Binyamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver and five changes of garments. (Gen 45:23) And he sent to his father this: ten donkeys loaded with the best of Mitsrayim, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain, and bread, and food for his father for the journey. (Gen 45:24) So he sent his brothers away, and they left. And he said to them, “Do not quarrel along the way.” (Gen 45:25) And they went up out of Mitsrayim, and came to the land of Kenaʽan to Yaʽaqoḇ their father. (Gen 45:26) And they told him, saying, “Yosĕph is still alive, and he is governor over all the land of Mitsrayim.” And Yaʽaqoḇ’s heart ceased, for he did not believe them. (Gen 45:27) But when they spoke to him all the words which Yosĕph had spoken to them, and when he saw the wagons which Yosĕph had sent to transport him, the spirit of Yaʽaqoḇ their father revived. (Gen 45:28) And Yisra’ĕl said, “Enough! My son Yosĕph is still alive. Let me go and see him before I die.”
Reconciliation and Restoration
(Gen 46:1) And Yisra’ĕl set out with all that he had, and came to Be’ĕrsheḇa, and brought offerings to the Elohim of his father Yitsḥaq. (Gen 46:2) And Elohim spoke to Yisra’ĕl in the visions of the night, and said, “Yaʽaqoḇ, Yaʽaqoḇ!” And he said, “Here I am.” (Gen 46:3) And He said, “I am the Ěl, Elohim of your father. Do not be afraid to go down to Mitsrayim, for I shall make you there into a great nation. (Gen 46:4) “I myself am going down with you to Mitsrayim and I Myself shall certainly bring you up again. And let Yosĕph put his hand on your eyes.” (Gen 46:5) And Yaʽaqoḇ rose up from Be’ĕrsheḇa. And the sons of Yisra’ĕl brought their father Yaʽaqoḇ, and their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to transport him. (Gen 46:6) And they took their livestock and their property which they had acquired in the land of Kenaʽan, and came into Mitsrayim, Yaʽaqoḇ and all his seed with him. (Gen 46:7) His sons and his sons’ sons, his daughters and his sons’ daughters, and all his seed he brought with him to Mitsrayim. (Gen 46:8) And these were the names of the children of Yisra’ĕl, Yaʽaqoḇ and his sons, who came into Mitsrayim: Re’uḇĕn was Yaʽaqoḇ’s first-born. (Gen 46:9) And the sons of Re’uḇĕn: Ḥanoḵ, and Pallu, and Ḥetsron, and Karmi. (Gen 46:10) And the sons of Shimʽon: Yemu’ĕl, and Yamin, and Ohaḏ, and Yaḵin, and Tsoḥar, and Sha’ul, son of a Kenaʽanite woman. (Gen 46:11) And the sons of Lĕwi: Gĕreshon, Qehath, and Merari. (Gen 46:12) And the sons of Yehuḏah: Ěr, and Onan, and Shĕlah, and Perets, and Zeraḥ – but Ěr and Onan died in the land of Kenaʽan. And the sons of Perets were Ḥetsron and Ḥamul. (Gen 46:13) And the sons of Yissasḵar: Tola, and Puwʽah, and Yoḇ, and Shimron. (Gen 46:14) And the sons of Zeḇulun: Sereḏ, and Ělon, and Yaḥle’ĕl. (Gen 46:15) These were the sons of Lĕ’ah, whom she bore to Yaʽaqoḇ in Paddan Aram, with his daughter Dinah. All the beings, his sons and his daughters, were thirty-three. (Gen 46:16) And the sons of Gaḏ: Tsiphyon and Ḥaggi, Shuni and Etsbon, Ěri and Aroḏi, and Arĕli. (Gen 46:17) And the sons of Ashĕr: Yimnah, and Yishwah, and Yishwi, and Beriʽah, and Seraḥ, their sister. And the sons of Beriʽah: Ḥeḇer and Malki’ĕl. (Gen 46:18) These were the sons of Zilpah, whom Laḇan gave to Lĕ’ah his daughter. And these she bore to Yaʽaqoḇ: sixteen beings. (Gen 46:19) The sons of Raḥĕl, Yaʽaqoḇ’s wife: Yosĕph and Binyamin. (Gen 46:20) And to Yosĕph in the land of Mitsrayim were born Menashsheh and Ephrayim, whom Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On, bore to him. (Gen 46:21) And the sons of Binyamin: Belah, and Beḵer, and Ashbĕl, Gĕra and Naʽaman, Ěḥi and Rosh, Muppim and Ḥuppim, and Ard. (Gen 46:22) These were the sons of Raḥĕl who were born to Yaʽaqoḇ: fourteen beings in all. (Gen 46:23) And the son of Dan: Ḥushim. (Gen 46:24) And the sons of Naphtali: Yaḥtse’ĕl, and Guni, and Yĕtser, and Shillĕm. (Gen 46:25) These were the sons of Bilhah, whom Laḇan gave to Raḥĕl his daughter, and she bore these to Yaʽaqoḇ: seven beings in all. (Gen 46:26) All the beings who went with Yaʽaqoḇ to Mitsrayim, who came from his body, besides Yaʽaqoḇ’s sons’ wives, were sixty-six beings in all. (Gen 46:27) And the sons of Yosĕph who were born to him in Mitsrayim were two beings. All the beings of the house of Yaʽaqoḇ who went to Mitsrayim were seventy. (Gen 46:28) And he sent Yehuḏah before him to Yosĕph, to point out before him the way to Goshen. And they came to the land of Goshen. (Gen 46:29) And Yosĕph made ready his chariot and went up to Goshen to meet his father Yisra’ĕl. And he appeared to him, and fell on his neck and wept on his neck a long time. (Gen 46:30) And Yisra’ĕl said to Yosĕph, “Now let me die, since I have seen your face, that you are still alive.” (Gen 46:31) And Yosĕph said to his brothers and to his father’s household, “I am going up to inform Pharaoh, and say to him, ‘My brothers and those of my father’s house, who were in the land of Kenaʽan, have come to me. (Gen 46:32) ‘And the men are shepherds, that they have been men of livestock, and they have brought their flocks and their herds, and all that they have.’ (Gen 46:33) “And it shall be, when Pharaoh calls you and says, ‘What is your occupation?’ (Gen 46:34) that you shall say, ‘Your servants have been men of livestock from our youth even till now, both we and also our fathers,’ so that you dwell in the land of Goshen, for every shepherd is an abomination to the Mitsrites.” (Comment; shepherds of Yah- still abominations to worldly)
Note the brothers have learned NOT TO LIE even if it seems profitable!
(Gen 47:1) Then Yosĕph went and spoke to Pharaoh, and said, “My father and my brothers, their flocks and their herds and all that they possess, have come from the land of Kenaʽan. And see, they are in the land of Goshen.” (Gen 47:2) And he took five men from among his brothers and presented them to Pharaoh. (Gen 47:3) And Pharaoh said to his brothers, “What is your occupation?” And they said to Pharaoh, “Your servants are shepherds, both we and also our fathers.” (Gen 47:4) And they said to Pharaoh, “We have come to dwell in the land, because there is no pasture for your servant’s flocks, for the scarcity of food is severe in the land of Kenaʽan. And now, please let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen.” (Gen 47:5) And Pharaoh spoke to Yosĕph, saying, “Your father and your brothers have come to you. (Gen 47:6) “The land of Mitsrayim is before you. Settle your father and brothers in the best of the land; let them dwell in the land of Goshen. And if you know of capable men among them, then make them chief herdsmen over my livestock.” (Gen 47:7) And Yosĕph brought in his father Yaʽaqoḇ and set him before Pharaoh. And Yaʽaqoḇ blessed Pharaoh. (Gen 47:8) And Pharaoh said to Yaʽaqoḇ, “How old are you?” (Gen 47:9) And Yaʽaqoḇ said to Pharaoh, “The days of the years of my sojournings are one hundred and thirty years. Few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not reached the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their sojournings.” (Gen 47:10) And Yaʽaqoḇ blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh. (Gen 47:11) So Yosĕph settled his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Mitsrayim, in the best of the land, in the land of Raʽmeses, as Pharaoh had commanded. (Gen 47:12) And Yosĕph provided his father, and his brothers, and his entire father’s household with bread for the mouth of the little ones. (Gen 47:13) Now there was no bread in all the land, because the scarcity of food was very severe, and the land of Mitsrayim and all the land of Kenaʽan became exhausted from the scarcity of food. (Gen 47:14) And Yosĕph gathered up all the silver that was found in the land of Mitsrayim and in the land of Kenaʽan, for the grain which they bought. And Yosĕph brought the silver into Pharaoh’s house. (Gen 47:15) And when the silver was all spent in the land of Mitsrayim and in the land of Kenaʽan, all the Mitsrites came to Yosĕph and said, “Give us bread, for why we should die in your presence? For the silver is gone!” (Gen 47:16) And Yosĕph said, “Give your livestock, and I give you bread for your livestock, if the silver is gone.” (Gen 47:17) So they brought their livestock to Yosĕph, and Yosĕph gave them bread in exchange for the horses, and for the flocks they owned, and for the herds they owned, and for the donkeys. Thus he fed them with bread in exchange for all their livestock that year. (Gen 47:18) And when that year had ended, they came to him the next year and said to him, “We do not hide from my master that our silver is all spent, and my master also has the livestock we owned. There has not any been left before my master but our bodies and our lands. (Gen 47:19) “Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for bread, and let us and our land be servants of Pharaoh. And give us seed, and let us live and not die, and let the land not lay waste.” (Gen 47:20) And Yosĕph bought the entire land of Mitsrayim for Pharaoh, because every man of the Mitsrites sold his field, because the scarcity of food was severe upon them. And the land came to be Pharaoh’s. (Gen 47:21) And as for the people, he moved them into the cities, from one end of the borders of Mitsrayim to the other end. (Gen 47:22) Only the ground of the priests he did not buy, for the priests had portions allotted to them by Pharaoh, and they ate their portions which Pharaoh gave them. Therefore they did not sell their ground. (Gen 47:23) And Yosĕph said to the people, “Look, I have bought you and your land today for Pharaoh. Look, here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land. (Gen 47:24) “And it shall be that in the harvest you shall give one-fifth to Pharaoh. And four-fifths is your own, as seed for the field and for your food, for those of your households and as food for your little ones.” (Gen 47:25) And they said, “You have saved our lives. Let us find favor in the eyes of my master, and we shall become Pharaoh’s servants.” (Gen 47:26) And Yosĕph made it a law over the land of Mitsrayim to this day, that Pharaoh should have one-fifth, except for the ground of the priests only, which did not become Pharaoh’s. (Gen 47:27) And Yisra’ĕl dwelt in the land of Mitsrayim, in the land of Goshen. And they had possessions there and bore fruit and increased exceedingly.
Two witnesses become ONE in His hand and where shall we live?
(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, and 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 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.” ’ ”
Sabbath is made for man not man for the Sabbath- still we honor Him and keep it set apart! Once you start by obeying in this key matter- you will be highly favored and blessed of YHWH- as this is His sign between us and Him forever!
(Luke 6:9) Then יהושע said to them, “I ask you, is it right to do good on the Sabbath, or to do evil, to save life or to destroy it?” (Luke 6:10) And looking around at them all, He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he did so, and his hand was restored sound as the other. (Luke 6:11) But they were filled with folly, and were speaking with one another what they should do to יהושע. (Luke 6:12) And in those days it came to be that He went out to the mountain to pray, and was spending the night in prayer to Elohim.
My heartfelt and now urgent prayer for you loved one, is that you become empowered to demonstrate His power as listed following and produce the fruit that remains! (1Co 2:1) And, when I came to you, brothers, I did not come with excellence of speech or wisdom, proclaiming to you the witness of Elohim. (1Co 2:2) For I resolved not to know any matter among you except יהושע Messiah and Him impaled. (1Co 2:3) And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. (1Co 2:4) And my word and my preaching were not with persuasive words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, (1Co 2:5) in order that your belief/trust should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of Elohim. I further pray that you learn to walk in His supernatural gifts by faith and trust and further that you walk in obedience and so in love with the Messiah that you FEAR NOT! I pray you are crucified in Messiah and that you no longer live according to the flesh, but walk according to the spirit, and the life you live, you live in Him who loves you and gave Himself up for you! Thanks for your timely prayers for me that I walk in power, love and obedience; and that YHWH directs, provides, and protects me and my loved ones! I believe those wonderful prayers are seeds for your own loved ones- Praise YHWH! Our Deliverer is coming! Hallelu-YAH! You are much loved!
Shalom to your home loved one,
