Loved One, last week I was off beat or at least out of step! Hehe. I was at the Feast of Tabernacles in Missouri with 700 Loved Ones and for some strange reason did my study based on this week’s portion—that’s what camping out or at least being removed from normal facilities does. Several of you really like the timely study on Halloween so I am adding it in review. Here remains our choice of real and present danger guaranteed by YHWH who will require Heaven and Earth to witness us and our choices this day! We should not fear him who can kill the body but rather FEAR HIM who can cast us into hell!
Loved One- October is often the time of the Fall Feasts of YHWH; however it is also a time of conflict among believers. While most understand that stock Halloween celebrations are rooted in the occult, many don't know the history behind this peculiar autumn festival associated with Halloween that can be entries for the occult. Before we get to our Torah study today let’s take a look at a real and present danger and what is really the driving force of Halloween- the occult forces. Many people believe these "games" are just harmless fun, and are unaware of the very real dangers they can face by dabbling in the realm of the demonic. From a Hebraic perspective this is the “celebration” of Noah’s flood we studied earlier. YHWH’s judgment left them skeletons (carcasses) and spooks (demon entities with no flesh home remaining to abide in) roaming around the earth searching for a new home. In a nutshell, judgment is again headed for Planet Earth, appropriately, this time with fire. We get to choose who we will obey: (Deuteronomy 11:26) Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; (Deuteronomy 11:27) A blessing, if you obey the commandments of YHWH your Elohim, which I command you this day: (Deuteronomy 11:28) And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of YHWH your Elohim, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which you have not known.
In ancient Britain and Ireland, (Where many of Ephraim, the ten Northern Tribes of Israel settled and then came from around the world) the Celtic festival of Samhain ("Sah-win") was observed on October 31, the end of summer. November 1 was the New Year for both Celtic and Anglo-Saxon calendars and was one of the most important and yet sinister calendar festivals of the Celtic Year. Settling in northern France and the British Isles, the Celtic people engaged in occultic arts and worshiped nature, giving it supernatural, animistic qualities. The ancient Druids were the learned priestly class of the Celtic religion. Many of their beliefs and practices were similar to those of Hinduism, such as reincarnation and the transmigration of the soul, which teaches that people may be reborn as animals. The Druids believed that on October 31, the night before their New Year and the last day of the old year, Samhain, the Lord of Death, gathered the souls of the evil dead who had been condemned to enter the bodies of animals. The Druids also believed that the punishment of the evil dead would be lightened by sacrifices, prayers and gifts to the Lord of Death. (This begins to reveal the strange link between this holiday and the non-Biblical concept of purgatory.) The souls of the dead were supposed to revisit their homes on this day, and the autumnal festival acquired a sinister significance, with ghosts, witches, hobgoblins, black cats, fairies, and demons of all kinds said to be roaming about. It was the time to placate the supernatural powers controlling the processes of nature. Halloween is, for many, a "crossover" involvement in which innocent games can lead to serious entanglement with real witches, neo-pagans, New Agers, and other occultists. A common pastime is the use of a Ouija board to attempt to contact ghosts or spirits that are believed to be roaming about. This can lead to serious consequences including demon possession. (The case studies underlying William Blatty's The Exorcist indicate that the trouble all began with a child playing with a Ouija board.) Demons have a vested interest in Halloween because it supports the occult, and it also offers novel and unexpected opportunities to control and influence people.
Forms of the occult can include mediums, channelers, clairvoyants, psychics, spiritists, diviners, mystics, gurus, shamans, psychical researchers, Yogis, psychic and holistic healers, astral travel, astrology, mysticism, Ouija boards, Tarot cards, contact with the dead, UFOs, and thousands of other practices which almost defy cataloging - even Harry Potter books and movies can lead innocent children into the occult. Occultism includes Satanism, astrology, Kabbalah, Gnosticism, theosophy, witchcraft and many forms of serious magic. It includes activities seeking the acquisition of "hidden" things - which are expressly forbidden by YHWH in the Bible. Halloween practices can open the door to the occult and can introduce forces into people's lives that they are not equipped to combat. There is genuine power in the occult, but it is demonic power (Mt 24:24; Acts 13:6-11; 16:16-19; 19:18-20; 2 Cor 4:4; Eph 6:7-11, 22). Any serious study of Biblical demonology will reveal Satan as the power behind false religion, witchcraft, idolatry and the occult (Deuteronomy 32:16, 17; Ps 106:35-40; Acts 16:16-19; 1 Cor 10:19-21; 2 Thess 2:9, 10; 1 Tim 4:1ff). The Word of God makes it clear that these are all to be shunned as dangerous. There were many superstitions and false concepts in ancient Israel about which the Bible is not silent. However, occultism, in any form, was punishable by death! Why? The spiritual power and reality behind idols involves demons (1 Cor 10:20; Ps 106:37). The Bible commands us to shun occult practices. Mediums and spiritists are expressly prohibited (Leviticus 19:31; Deuteronomy 18:10, 11, 14 2 Chr 33:6). Nowhere are such practices acceptable. Intellect alone is insufficient. "If it were possible, it would deceive the very elect. “Of course, the point is not to terrify people. The ultimate goal is to point them to the source of true protection, of true salvation, of true hope. Yahshua is the victor. He's already won the battle, and he is stronger than anything Satan can throw at us. Even more important, he has triumphed over death for us. He told his disciples long ago, and still tells us today, "...Rejoice not that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven" (Luke 10:20)

Okay Loved One- let’s turn our hearts and minds to this week’s Torah Scriptures sorry…actually last week’s Scriptures!
Here are this week’s Torah Scriptures: Achareimot “After the Death”
Leviticus 16:1-18:30; Amos 9:7-15; Ezekiel 22:1-15; Hebrews 9:11-28
Blood and Atonement!
(Leviticus 16:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh after the death of the two sons of Aharon, as they drew near before יהוה, and died. (Leviticus 16:2) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Speak to Aharon your brother not to come in at all times to the Set-apart Place inside the veil, before the lid of atonement which is on the ark, lest he die, because I appear in the cloud above the lid of atonement. (Leviticus 16:3) “With this Aharon should come into the Set-apart Place: with the blood of a young bull as a sin offering, and of a ram as a burnt offering. (Leviticus 16:4) “He should put on the set-apart linen long shirt, with linen trousers on his flesh, and gird himself with a linen girdle, and be dressed with the linen turban – they are set-apart garments. And he shall bathe his body in water, and shall put them on. (Leviticus 16:5) “And from the congregation of the children of Yisra’ĕl he takes two male goats as a sin offering, and one ram as a burnt offering. (Leviticus 16:6) “And Aharon shall bring the bull as a sin offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for himself and for his house. (Leviticus 16:7) “And he shall take the two goats and let them stand before יהוה at the door of the Tent of Meeting. (Leviticus 16:8) “And Aharon shall cast lots for the two goats, one lot for יהוה and the other lot for Azazel. (Leviticus 16:9) “And Aharon shall bring the goat on which the lot for יהוה fell, and shall prepare it as a sin offering. (Leviticus 16:10) “But the goat on which the lot for Azazel fell is caused to stand alive before יהוה, to make atonement upon it, to send it into the wilderness to Azazel. (Leviticus 16:11) “And Aharon shall bring the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for himself and for his house, and shall slaughter the bull as the sin offering which is for himself, (Leviticus 16:12) and shall take a fire holder filled with burning coals of fire from the altar before יהוה, with his hands filled with sweet incense beaten fine, and shall bring it inside the veil. (Leviticus 16:13) “And he shall put the incense on the fire before יהוה, and the cloud of incense shall cover the lid of atonement which is on the Witness, lest he die. (Leviticus 16:14) “And he shall take some of the blood of the bull and sprinkle it with his finger on the lid of atonement on the east side; also in front of the lid of atonement he sprinkles some of the blood with his finger seven times. (Leviticus 16:15) “And he shall slaughter the goat of the sin offering, which is for the people, and shall bring its blood inside the veil, and shall do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the lid of atonement and in front of the lid of atonement. (Leviticus 16:16) “And he shall make atonement for the Set-apart Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and because of their transgressions in all their sins. And so he does for the Tent of Meeting which is dwelling with them in the midst of their uncleanness. (Leviticus 16:17) “And no man should be in the Tent of Meeting when he goes in to make atonement in the Set-apart Place, until he comes out. And he shall make atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the assembly of Yisra’ĕl. (Leviticus 16:18) “And he shall go out to the altar that is before יהוה, and make atonement for it. And he shall take some of the blood of the bull and some of the blood of the goat, and put it on the horns of the altar all around. (Leviticus 16:19) “And he shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and set it apart from the uncleanness of the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Leviticus 16:20) “And when he has finished atoning for the Set-apart Place, and the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat.
The Scape GOAT! (The great cover-up)
(Leviticus 16:21) “Then Aharon shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and shall confess over it all the crookednesses of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and all their transgressions in all their sins, and shall put them on the head of the goat, and shall send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a fit man. (Leviticus 16:22) “And the goat shall bear on itself all their crookednesses, to a land cut off. Thus he shall send the goat away into the wilderness. (Leviticus 16:23) “Aharon shall then come into the Tent of Meeting, and shall take off the linen garments which he put on when he went into the Set-apart Place, and shall leave them there. (Leviticus 16:24) “And he shall bathe his body in water in the set-apart place, and shall put on his garments, and shall come out and prepare his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, and make atonement for himself and for the people, (Leviticus 16:25) and burn the fat of the sin offering on the altar. (Leviticus 16:26) “And he who sent away the goat to Azazel washes his garments, and shall bathe his body in water, and afterward he comes into the camp. (Leviticus 16:27) “And the bull for the sin offering and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the Set-apart Place, is brought outside the camp. And they shall burn their skins, and their flesh, and their dung with fire. (Leviticus 16:28) “And he who burns them washes his garments, and shall bathe his body in water, and afterward he comes into the camp.
Day of Atonement! (Fasting = afflicting our souls)
(Leviticus 16:29) “And this shall be for you a law forever: In the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you afflict your beings, and do no work, the native or the stranger who sojourns among you. (Leviticus 16:30) “For on that day he makes atonement for you, to cleanse you, to be clean from all your sins before יהוה. (Leviticus 16:31) “It is a Sabbath of rest for you, and you shall afflict your beings – a law forever. (Leviticus 16:32) “And the priest, who is anointed and ordained to serve as priest in his father’s place, shall make atonement, and shall put on the linen garments, the set-apart garments, (Leviticus 16:33) and he shall make atonement for the Most Set-apart Place, and make atonement for the Tent of Meeting and for the altar, and make atonement for the priests and for all the people of the assembly. (Leviticus 16:34) “And this shall be for you a law forever, to make atonement for the children of Yisra’ĕl, for all their sins, once a year.” And he did as יהוה commanded Mosheh.
FOREVER… REALLY! Eat NO blood OR get cut off from the House of Israel!
(Leviticus 17:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 17:2) “Speak to Aharon, to his sons, and to all the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘This is the word which יהוה has commanded, saying, (Leviticus 17:3) “Any man from the house of Yisra’ĕl who slaughters a bull or a lamb or a goat in the camp, or who slaughters it outside the camp, (Leviticus 17:4) and does not bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to bring an offering to יהוה before the Dwelling Place of יהוה, blood-guilt is reckoned to that man. He has shed blood, and that man shall be cut off from among his people, (Leviticus 17:5) in order that the children of Yisra’ĕl bring their slaughterings which they slaughter in the open field. And they shall bring them to יהוה at the door of the Tent of meeting, to the priest, and slaughter them as peace offerings to יהוה. (Leviticus 17:6) “And the priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of יהוה at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and shall burn the fat for a sweet fragrance to יהוה. (Leviticus 17:7) “And let them no longer slaughter their slaughterings to demons, after whom they whored. This is a law forever for them throughout their generations.” ’ (Leviticus 17:8) “And say to them, ‘Any man of the house of Yisra’ĕl, or of the strangers who sojourn among you, who offers a burnt offering or slaughtering, (Leviticus 17:9) and does not bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to do it to יהוה, that man shall be cut off from among his people. (Leviticus 17:10) ‘And any man of the house of Yisra’ĕl, or of the strangers who sojourn among you, who eats any blood, I shall set My face against that being who eats blood, and shall cut him off from among his people. (Leviticus 17:11) ‘For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your lives, for it is the blood that makes atonement for the life.’ (Leviticus 17:12) “Therefore I said to the children of Yisra’ĕl, ‘No being among you eats blood, nor does any stranger who sojourns among you eat blood.’ (Leviticus 17:13) “And any man from the children of Yisra’ĕl, or from the strangers who sojourn among you, who hunts and catches any beast or bird, which is eaten, shall pour out its blood and cover it with dust, (Leviticus 17:14) for it is the life of all flesh. Its blood is for its life. And I said to the children of Yisra’ĕl, ‘Do not eat the blood of any flesh, for the life of all flesh is its blood. Anyone eating it is cut off.’ (Leviticus 17:15) “And any being who eats a carcass or what was torn by a beast, be he a native or a stranger, he shall wash his garments and bathe in water, and shall be unclean until evening. Then he shall be clean. (Leviticus 17:16) “And if he does not wash or bathe his body, then he shall bear his crookedness.”
Careful- watching TV and movies may find you breaking Laws of Nakedness!
(Leviticus 18:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 18:2) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘I am יהוה your Elohim. (Leviticus 18:3) ‘Do not do as they do in the land of Mitsrayim, where you dwelt. And do not do as they do in the land of Kenaʽan, where I am bringing you, and do not walk in their laws. (Leviticus 18:4) ‘Do My right-rulings and guard my laws, to walk in them. I am יהוה your Elohim. (Leviticus 18:5) ‘And you shall guard my laws and my right-rulings, which a man does and lives by them. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 18:6) ‘No one is to approach anyone of his own flesh to uncover his nakedness. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 18:7) ‘The nakedness of your father or the nakedness of your mother you do not uncover. She is your mother; you do not uncover her nakedness. (Leviticus 18:8) ‘The nakedness of your father’s wife you do not uncover, it is your father’s nakedness. (Leviticus 18:9) ‘The nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father, or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home or elsewhere, their nakedness you do not uncover. (Leviticus 18:10) ‘The nakedness of your son’s daughter or your daughter’s daughter, their nakedness you do not uncover, for theirs is your own nakedness. (Leviticus 18:11) ‘The nakedness of your father’s wife’s daughter, brought forth by your father, she is your sister, you do not uncover her nakedness. (Leviticus 18:12) ‘The nakedness of your father’s sister you do not uncover, she is your father’s flesh. (Leviticus 18:13) ‘The nakedness of your mother’s sister you do not uncover, for she is your mother’s flesh. (Leviticus 18:14) ‘The nakedness of your father’s brother you do not uncover, you do not approach his wife, she is your aunt. (Leviticus 18:15) ‘The nakedness of your daughter-in-law you do not uncover, she is your son’s wife, you do not uncover her nakedness. (Leviticus 18:16) ‘The nakedness of your brother’s wife you do not uncover, it is your brother’s nakedness. (Leviticus 18:17) ‘The nakedness of a woman and her daughter you do not uncover, nor do you take her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness. They are her relatives – it is wickedness. (Leviticus 18:18) ‘And do not take a woman as a rival to her sister, to uncover her nakedness while the other is alive. (Leviticus 18:19) ‘And do not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness in her monthly separation of uncleanness. (Leviticus 18:20) ‘And do not have intercourse with the wife of your neighbor, to defile yourself with her. (Leviticus 18:21) ‘And do not give any of your offspring to pass through to Moleḵ. And do not profane the Name of your Elohim. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 18:22) ‘And do not lie with a male as with a woman, it is an abomination. (Leviticus 18:23) ‘And do not have intercourse with any beast, to defile yourself with it. And a woman does not stand before a beast to mate with it, it is a perversion. (Leviticus 18:24) ‘Do not defile yourselves with all these, for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am driving out before you. (Leviticus 18:25) ‘Thus the land became defiled, therefore I punished it for its crookedness, and the land vomited out its inhabitants. (Leviticus 18:26) ‘But you, you shall guard My laws and My right-rulings, and not do any of these abominations, the native nor stranger who sojourns among you, (Leviticus 18:27) because the men of the land who were before you have done all these abominations, and thus the land became defiled, (Leviticus 18:28) ‘So let not the land vomit you out for defiling it, as it vomited out the nations that were before you. (Leviticus 18:29) ‘For whoever does any of these abominations, those beings that do them shall be cut off from among their people. (Leviticus 18:30) ‘And you shall guard My Charge, so as not to do any of these abominable practices which were done before you, so as not to defile yourselves by them. I am יהוה your Elohim.’ ”
Remember “In That Day” is a Hebrews idiom for the Day of YHWH!
(Amos 9:11) “In that day I shall raise up the booth of Dawiḏ which has fallen down. And I shall repair its breaches and rise up its ruins. And I shall build it as in the days of old, (Amos 9:12) so that they possess the remnant of Eḏom1, and all the gentiles on whom My Name is called2,” declares יהוה who does this. Footnotes: 1Vowels which the Massoretes added later on makes this read Eḏom, but it was probably a mistake. It should be Aḏam, meaning mankind. 2Acts 15:16-17. (Amos 9:13) “Look, the days are coming,” declares יהוה, “that the ploughman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him who sows seed. And the mountains shall drip new wine, and all the hills melt. (Amos 9:14) “And I shall turn back the captivity of my people Yisra’ĕl. And they shall build the waste cities and inhabit them. And they shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them, and shall make gardens and eat their fruit. (Amos 9:15) “And I shall plant them on their own soil, and not uproot them any more from their own soil I have given them,” said יהוה your Elohim!
Do these abominations about blood and get scattered all over the earth!
(Ezekiel 22:1) And the word of יהוה came to me, saying, (Ezekiel 22:2) “And now, son of man, judge, judge the city of blood! And you shall show her all her abominations! (Ezekiel 22:3) “And you shall say, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “The city sheds blood in her midst, that her time might come. And she has made idols within herself to become defiled. (Ezekiel 22:4) “You have become guilty by the blood which you have shed, and have defiled yourself with the idols which you have made. Thus you have brought your days near, and have come to the end of your years. Therefore I shall make you a reproach to the gentiles, and a mockery to all lands. (Ezekiel 22:5) “Those near and those far from you mock you – defiled is your name and great the confusion! (Ezekiel 22:6) “See the leaders of Yisra’ĕl: each one has used his arm to shed blood in you. (Ezekiel 22:7) “They have despised father and mother within you. They have oppressed the stranger in your midst. They have wronged the fatherless and the widow within you. (Ezekiel 22:8) “You have despised that which is set-apart to me, and you have profaned My Sabbaths. (Ezekiel 22:9) “Slanderous men have been in you to shed blood. And in you are those who eat on the mountains. They have done wickedness in your midst. (Ezekiel 22:10) “In you they have uncovered the nakedness of a father. In you they have humbled women who are defiled during their uncleanness. (Ezekiel 22:11) “And the one has done abomination with his neighbor’s wife. And another has wickedly defiled his daughter-in-law. And another within you has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter. (Ezekiel 22:12) “In you they have taken a bribe to shed blood. You have taken interest and increase. You have cut off your neighbor by extortion. And you have forgotten me,” declares the Master יהוה. (Ezekiel 22:13) “And see, I shall smite my hand because of your greedy gain which you have made, and at the bloodshed which has been in your midst. (Ezekiel 22:14) “Would your heart stand, your hands remain strong, in the days when I deal with you? I, יהוה, have spoken, and shall do it. (Ezekiel 22:15) “And I shall scatter you among the gentiles, and shall disperse you throughout the lands, and shall consume your filthiness out of you. (Ezekiel 22:16) “And you shall profane yourself before the eyes of the gentiles. And you shall know that I am יהוה.” ’ ” (Ezekiel 22:17) And the word of יהוה came to me, saying, (Ezekiel 22:18) “Son of man, the house of Yisra’ĕl has become dross to Me. All of them are bronze, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of a furnace – they have become the dross of silver. (Ezekiel 22:19) “Thus said the Master יהוה, ‘all of you have become dross, therefore see, I am gathering you into the midst of Yerushalayim.
Blood of the LAMB!
(Hebrews 9:11) But Messiah, having become a High Priest of the coming good matters, through the greater and more perfect Tent not made with hands, that is, not of this creation, (Hebrews 9:12) entered into the Most Set-apart Place once for all, not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood, having obtained everlasting redemption. (Hebrews 9:13) For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the defiled, sets apart for the cleansing of the flesh, (Hebrews 9:14) how much more shall the blood of the Messiah, who through the everlasting Spirit offered Himself unblemished to Elohim, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living Elohim? (Hebrews 9:15) And because of this He is the Mediator of a renewed covenant, so that, death having taken place for redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, those who are called might receive the promise of the everlasting inheritance. (Hebrews 9:16) For where a covenant is, it is necessary for the death of the covenanted one to be established. (Hebrews 9:17) For a covenant over those dead is firm, since it is never valid while the covenanted one is living. (Hebrews 9:18) Therefore not even the first covenant was instituted without blood. (Hebrews 9:19) For when, according to Torah, every command had been spoken by Mosheh to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, (Hebrews 9:20) saying, “This is the blood of the covenant which Elohim commanded you.” (Hebrews 9:21) And in the same way he sprinkled with blood both the Tent and all the vessels of the service. (Hebrews 9:22) And, according to the Torah, almost all is cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness. (Hebrews 9:23) It was necessary, then, that the copies of the heavenly ones should be cleansed with these, but the heavenly ones themselves with better slaughter offerings than these. (Hebrews 9:24) For Messiah has not entered into a Set-apart Place made by hand – figures of the true – but into the heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of Elohim on our behalf, (Hebrews 9:25) not that He should offer Himself often, as the high priest enters into the Set-apart Place year by year with blood not his own. (Hebrews 9:26) If so, He would have had to suffer often, since the foundation of the world. But now He has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the offering of himself. (Hebrews 9:27) And as it awaits men to die once, and after this the judgment, (Hebrews 9:28) so also the Messiah, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, shall appear a second time, apart from sin, to those waiting for Him, unto deliverance.
My prayer for you loved one, is that you realize you are bought with a great price of His blood and become empowered to demonstrate His power and walk as Yahshua did! (Col 2:6) Therefore, as you accepted Messiah יהושע the Master, walk in Him, (Col 2:7) having been rooted and built up in Him, and established in the belief, as you were taught, overflowing in it with thanksgiving. I pray that you walk in Him as listed following and produce His 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! HIS BLOOD WAS SHED FOR YOU! 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 also walk in His 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,
Thurston
