TESHUVAH- (repent) we are now required to turn our stiff necks and follow Him and His instructions (Torah). Here’s what the Ruach demands I teach/remind us about today. I tried for many days to teach on other topics but to no avail. Yah-chanan- (John the Immerser spoken as Hebrew) means Yah’s Mercy- and what did he come preaching? REPENT- TESHUVAH as that is the only way to His mercy- Let’s look:

 

(Mat 3:1)  And in those days Yoḥanan the Immerser came proclaiming in the wilderness of Yehuḏah, (Mat 3:2) and saying, “Repent, for the reign of the heavens has come near!” (Mat 3:3)  For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Yeshayahu, saying, “A voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way of יהוה, make His paths straight.’ ”¹ Footnote: ^1Isa. 40:3. (Mat 3:4) And Yoḥanan had a garment of camel’s hair, and a leather girdle around his waist. And his food was locusts and wild honey. (Mat 3:5)  Then Yerushalayim, and all Yehuḏah, and all the country around the Yardĕn went out to him, (Mat 3:6) and they were immersed by him in the Yardĕn, confessing their sins. (Mat 3:7)  And seeing many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his immersion, he said to them, “Brood of adders! Who has warned you to flee from the coming wrath? (Mat 3:8)  “Bear, therefore, fruits worthy of repentance, (Mat 3:9) and do not think to say to yourselves, ‘We have Aḇraham as father.’¹ for I say to you that Elohim is able to rise up children to Aḇraham from these stones. Footnote: ¹John 8:33-34, Rom. 9:8. (Mat 3:10)  “And the axe is already laid to the root of the trees. Every tree, then, which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. (Mat 3:11)  “I indeed immerse you in water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to bear. He shall immerse you in the Set-apart Spirit and fire. (Mat 3:12)  “His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He shall thoroughly cleanse His threshing-floor, and gather His wheat into the storehouse, but the chaff He shall burn with unquenchable fire.”

 

Why is the Ruach warning us just now was my next question. Here’s His answer- “many will be surprised because they have not judged themselves and made themselves ready- many are still speaking against their brothers and sisters and pointing the finger at others’ faults but not really looking at themselves and making themselves ready”. Goodness loved one, I think this applies to every one of us as it is so easy to see others faults and think we’re okay… our fruit that we are commanded to bear cannot be self-exaltation at the expense of someone else’s character- so much la shan hara these days and many bearing false witness and out right lying to make themselves appear righteous.. Goodness- let’s take a closer look at ourselves before we must soon stand in His presence! Should we not cleanse ourselves now or at least ask our loving Father- Is there anything that will be burned up as wood, hay, and stubble when I am in your presence- that I considered gold, silver, and precious? Let’s consider carefully and humble ourselves. It seems that when we think all is well and there is nothing to be repentant about; we may be deceived by the enemy of our souls.

 

(James 4:5)  Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose? Does the Spirit which dwells in us intensely crave unto envy? (James 4:6)  But He gives greater favor. Because of this He says, “Elohim resists the proud, but gives favor to the humble.” (James 4:7)  So then subject (submit to His Instructions- receive the engrafted word) yourselves to Elohim. Resist the devil¹ and he shall flee from you. Footnote: ¹Or adversary. (James 4:8)  Draw near to Elohim and He shall draw near to you. Cleanse 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? (James 4:13)  Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow, let us go to such and such a city, spend a year there, and trade, and make a profit,” (James 4:14)  when you do not know of tomorrow. For what is your life? For it is a vapor that appears for a little, and then disappears – (James 4:15) instead of your saying, “If the Master desires, we shall live and do this or that.” (James 4:16)  But now you boast in your proud speeches. All such boasting is wicked. (James 4:17)  To him, then, who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

 

Remember loved one, we are the last day’s assembly of believers or His body, so it is quite probable that we have been deceived in certain areas of our lives. Here’s what He reminded me about;

 

(Rev 3:13)  “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.” ’ (Rev 3:14) “And to the messenger of the assembly in Laodikeia write, ‘The Amĕn, the Trustworthy and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of Elohim, ¹ says this: Footnote: ¹Col. 1:15, Heb. 1:6. (Rev 3:15)  “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I would that you were cold or hot. (Rev 3:16)  “So, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I am going to vomit you out of my mouth. (Rev 3:17)  “Because you say, ‘Rich I am, and I am made rich, and need none at all,’ and do not know that you are wretched, and pitiable, and poor, and blind, and naked. (Rev 3:18)  “I advise you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, ¹ (Trust- belief- faith in spite of what is seen) so that you become rich; and white garments (Robes of Righteousness that come from DOING the Gospel and OBEDIENCE to His Instructions-Torah), so that you become dressed, so that the shame of your nakedness might not be shown; and anoint your eyes with ointment, (Filled with His Ruach which guides us into all truth) so that you see. Footnote: ¹Ps. 19:10, Ps. 119:72 & 127, Prov. 30:5. (Rev 3:19)  “As many as I love, I reprove and discipline. So be ardent and repent. (Rev 3:20)  “See, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I shall come in to him and dine with him, and he with me. (Rev 3:21)  “To him who overcomes I shall give to sit with me on my throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. (Rev 3:22) “He, who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.” ’ ”

 

 

Let’s become OVERCOMERS loved one since His promise is to those that overcome! Now we turn our hearts to this week’s Torah Scriptures and receive His BLESSINGS! Hallelu-YAH!

Here are this Week’s Torah Scriptures:  Ki Tavo “When You Enter In”

Deuteronomy 26:1-29:8; Isaiah 60:1-22; Romans 11:1-15

 

 

First fruits declare who is most important to us- YHWH still hears and sees our tears and afflictions! Note also you and I are responsible to WHERE our tithe goes- we are not omitted from responsibility to give where He says- He does not give that responsibility to a religious organization!

 

(Deuteronomy 26:1)  “And it shall be, when you come into the land which יהוה your Elohim is giving you as an inheritance, and you possess it and dwell in it, (Deuteronomy 26:2) that you shall take some of the first of all the fruits of the soil which you bring from your land that יהוה your Elohim is giving you, and shall put it in a basket and go to the place where יהוה your Elohim chooses to make His Name dwell there. (Deuteronomy 26:3)  “And you shall come to the one who is priest in those days, and say to him, ‘I shall declare today to יהוה your Elohim that I have come to the land which יהוה swore to our fathers to give us.’ (Deuteronomy 26:4)  “And the priest shall take the basket from your hand and place it before the altar of יהוה your Elohim. (Deuteronomy 26:5)  “And you shall answer and say before יהוה your Elohim, ‘My father was a perishing Aramean, and he went down to Mitsrayim and sojourned there with few men. And there he became a nation, great, mighty, and numerous. (Deuteronomy 26:6)  ‘But the Mitsrites did evil to us, and afflicted us, and imposed hard labor on us. (Deuteronomy 26:7)  ‘Then we cried out to יהוה Elohim of our fathers, and יהוה heard our voice and saw our affliction and our toil and our oppression. (Deuteronomy 26:8)  ‘And יהוה brought us out of Mitsrayim with a strong hand and with an outstretched arm, with great fear and with signs and wonders. (Deuteronomy 26:9)  ‘And He brought us to this place and has given us this land, “a land flowing with milk and honey.” (Deuteronomy 26:10)  ‘And now, see, I have brought the first-fruits of the land which You, O יהוה, have given me.’ Then you shall place it before יהוה your Elohim, and bow down before יהוה your Elohim, (Deuteronomy 26:11)  and shall rejoice in all the good which יהוה your Elohim has given to you and your house, you and the Lĕwite and the stranger who is among you. (Deuteronomy 26:12)  “When you have completed tithing all the tithe of your increase in the third year, which is the year of tithing, and have given it to the Lĕwite, to the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, and they have eaten within your gates and have been satisfied, (Deuteronomy 26:13)  then you shall say before יהוה your Elohim, ‘I have put away the set-apart portion from my house, and also have given it to the Lĕwite, and to the stranger, and to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all Your command which You have commanded me. I have not transgressed your commands, nor have I forgotten. (Deuteronomy 26:14)  ‘I have not eaten any of it when in neither mourning, nor have I removed any of it for any unclean use, nor given any of it for the dead. I have obeyed the voice of יהוה my Elohim, I have done according to all that you have commanded me. (Deuteronomy 26:15)  ‘Look from Your set-apart dwelling place, from the heavens, and bless Your people Yisra’ĕl and the land which You have given us, as You swore to our fathers, “a land flowing with milk and honey.” ’ (Deuteronomy 26:16) “Today יהוה your Elohim is commanding you to do these laws and right-rulings. And you shall guard and do them with all your heart and with all your being. (Deuteronomy 26:17)  “You have today caused יהוה to proclaim to be your Elohim, and to walk in His ways and guard His laws, and His commands, and His right-rulings, and to obey His voice. (Deuteronomy 26:18)  “And יהוה has caused you to proclaim today to be His people, a treasured possession, as He has spoken to you, and to guard all His commands, (Deuteronomy 26:19) so as to set you high above all nations which He has made, for a praise, and for a name, and for esteem, and for you to be a set-apart people to יהוה your Elohim, as He has spoken.”

 

 

Guard them= DO them! Obedience brings blessings and Disobedience guarantees these curses!

 

(Deuteronomy 27:1)  And Mosheh, with the elders of Yisra’ĕl, commanded the people, saying, “Guard all the commands which I am commanding you today. (Deuteronomy 27:2)  “And it shall be, on the day when you pass over the Yardĕn to the land which יהוה your Elohim is giving you, that you shall set up for yourselves large stones, and plaster them with plaster, (Deuteronomy 27:3)  and write on them all the Words of this Torah, when you have passed over, so that you go into the land which יהוה your Elohim is giving you, ‘a land flowing with milk and honey,’ as יהוה Elohim of your fathers has spoken to you. (Deuteronomy 27:4)  “And it shall be, when you have passed over the Yardĕn, that on Mount Ěyḇal you set up these stones, which I command you today, and you shall plaster them with plaster, (Deuteronomy 27:5)  and build an altar to יהוה your Elohim there, an altar of stones – do not use an iron tool on them. (Deuteronomy 27:6)  “Build the altar of יהוה your Elohim with complete stones and you shall offer burnt offerings on it to יהוה your Elohim, (Deuteronomy 27:7) and shall offer peace offerings, and eat there, and rejoice before יהוה your Elohim. (Deuteronomy 27:8)  “And you shall write all the Words of this Torah on the stones – plainly and well.” (Deuteronomy 27:9)  And Mosheh and the priests, the Lĕwites, spoke to all Yisra’ĕl, saying, “Be silent and hear, O Yisra’ĕl: This day you have become the people of יהוה your Elohim, (Deuteronomy 27:10)  and you shall obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim, and do His commands and His laws which I command you today.” (Deuteronomy 27:11)  And Mosheh commanded the people on that day, saying, (Deuteronomy 27:12) “These are to stand on Mount Gerizim to bless the people, when you have passed over the Yardĕn: Shimʽon, and Lĕwi, and Yehuḏah, and Yissasḵar, and Yosĕph, and Binyamin. (Deuteronomy 27:13)  “And these are to stand on Mount Ěyḇal to curse: Re’uḇĕn, Gaḏ, and Ashĕr, and Zeḇulun, Dan, and Naphtali. (Deuteronomy 27:14)  “And the Lĕwites shall speak with a loud voice and say to all the men of Yisra’ĕl: (Deuteronomy 27:15)  ‘Cursed is the man who makes a carved or molded image, an abomination to יהוה, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and sets it up in secret.’ And all the people shall answer and say, ‘Amĕn!’ (Deuteronomy 27:16)  ‘Cursed is he who makes light of his father or his mother.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amĕn!’ (Deuteronomy 27:17)  ‘Cursed is he who moves his neighbor’s boundary.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amĕn!’ (Deuteronomy 27:18)  ‘Cursed is he who misleads the blind in the way.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amĕn!’ (Deuteronomy 27:19)  ‘Cursed is he who twists the right-ruling of the stranger, the fatherless, and widow.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amĕn!’ (Deuteronomy 27:20)  ‘Cursed is he who lies with his father’s wife, because he has uncovered his father’s bed.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amĕn!’ (Deuteronomy 27:21)  ‘Cursed is he who lies with any beast.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amĕn!’ (Deuteronomy 27:22)  ‘Cursed is he who lies with his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amĕn!’ (Deuteronomy 27:23)  ‘Cursed is he who lies with his mother-in-law.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amĕn!’ (Deuteronomy 27:24)  ‘Cursed is he who smites his neighbor secretly.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amĕn!’ (Deuteronomy 27:25)  ‘Cursed is he who takes a bribe to slay an innocent being.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amĕn!’ (Deuteronomy 27:26)  ‘Cursed is he who does not establish the Words of this Torah.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amĕn!’

 

WE DILIGENTLY OBEY! Note: His blessings will overtake us- hehe we cannot get away from them!

 

(Deuteronomy 28:1)  “And it shall be, if you diligently obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim, to guard to do all His commands which I command you today, that יהוה your Elohim shall set you high above all nations of the earth. (Deuteronomy 28:2)  “And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim: (Deuteronomy 28:3) “Blessed are you in the city, and blessed are you in the field. (Deuteronomy 28:4)  “Blessed is the fruit of your body, and the fruit of your ground and the fruit of your livestock – the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks. (Deuteronomy 28:5)  “Blessed is your basket and your kneading bowl. (Deuteronomy 28:6)  “Blessed are you when you come in, and blessed are you when you go out. (Deuteronomy 28:7)  “יהוה causes your enemies who rise against you to be smitten before your face – they come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways. (Deuteronomy 28:8)  “יהוה commands the blessing on you in your storehouses and in all to which you set your hand, and shall bless you in the land which יהוה your Elohim is giving you. (Deuteronomy 28:9)  “יהוה does establish you as a set-apart people to Himself, as He has sworn to you, if you guard the commands of יהוה your Elohim and walk in His ways. (Deuteronomy 28:10)  “And all peoples of the earth shall see that the Name of יהוה is called upon you, and they shall be afraid of you. (Deuteronomy 28:11)  “And יהוה shall make you to have plenty of what is good, in the fruit of your body, in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground, in the land of which יהוה swore to your fathers to give you. (Deuteronomy 28:12)  “יהוה opens to you His good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand. And you shall lend to many nations, but you do not borrow. (Deuteronomy 28:13)  “And יהוה shall make you the head and not the tail. And you shall be only on top, and not be beneath, if you obey the commands of יהוה your Elohim, which I command you today, to guard and do. (Deuteronomy 28:14)  “And do not turn aside from any of the Words which I am commanding you today, right or left, to go after other mighty ones to serve them. (Deuteronomy 28:15)  “And it shall be, if you do not obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim, to guard to do all His commands and His laws which I command you today, that all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you: (Deuteronomy 28:16)  “Cursed are you in the city, and cursed are you in the field. (Deuteronomy 28:17)  “Cursed is your basket and your kneading bowl. (Deuteronomy 28:18)  “Cursed is the fruit of your body and the fruit of your land, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.

(Deuteronomy 28:20)  “יהוה sends on you the curse, the confusion, and the rebuke in all that you set your hand to do, until you are destroyed and until you perish quickly, because of the evil of your doings by which you have forsaken Me. (Deuteronomy 28:21) “יהוה makes the plague cling to you until He has consumed you from the land which you are going to possess. (Deuteronomy 28:22)  “יהוה smites you with wasting disease, and with inflammation, and with burning, and with extreme heat, and with the sword, and with blight, and with mildew. And they shall pursue you until you perish. (Deuteronomy 28:23)  “And your heavens which are over your head shall be bronze, and the earth which is under you iron.

 

Continued CURSES!

 

(Deuteronomy 28:24)  “יהוה makes the rain of your land powder and dust; from the heavens it comes down on you until you are destroyed. (Deuteronomy 28:25)  “יהוה causes you to be defeated before your enemies – you go out one way against them and flee seven ways before them. And you shall become a horror to all the reigns of the earth. (Deuteronomy 28:26)  “And your carcasses shall be food for all the birds of the heavens and the beasts of the earth, with no one to frighten them away. (Deuteronomy 28:27)  “יהוה shall smite you with the boils of Mitsrayim, with tumors, with the scab, and with the itch, from which you are unable to be healed. (Deuteronomy 28:28)  “יהוה shall smite you with madness and blindness and bewilderment of heart. (Deuteronomy 28:29)  “And you shall be groping at noon, as a blind man gropes in darkness, and not prosper in your ways. And you shall be only oppressed and plundered all the days, with no one to save you. (Deuteronomy 28:30)  “You become engaged to a wife, but another man does lie with her. You build a house, but do not dwell in it. You plant a vineyard, but do not use its fruit. (Deuteronomy 28:31)  “Your ox is slaughtered before your eyes, but you do not eat of it. Your donkey is violently taken from before you, and it is not given back to you. Your sheep are given to your enemies, with no one to save them. (Deuteronomy 28:32)  “Your sons and your daughters are given to another people, and your eyes look and fail for them all day long, and your hand powerless. (Deuteronomy 28:33)  “A people whom you have not known eat the fruit of your land and all your labors. And you shall be only oppressed and crushed all the days.

(Deuteronomy 28:36)  “יהוה brings you and the sovereign whom you set over you to a nation which neither you nor your fathers have known, and there you shall serve other mighty ones, wood and stone. (Deuteronomy 28:37)  “Thus you shall become astonishment, a proverb, and a mockery among all the peoples to which יהוה drives you. (Deuteronomy 28:38)  “You take much seed out into the field but gather little in, for the locust consumes it. (Deuteronomy 28:39)  “You plant vineyards, and shall labor, but you neither drink of the wine nor gather, for the worm eats it. (Deuteronomy 28:40)  “You have olive trees in your entire border, but do not anoint with oil, for your olives drop off. (Deuteronomy 28:41)  “You bring forth sons and daughters, but they are not with you, for they go into captivity. (Deuteronomy 28:42)  “Locusts possess all your trees and the fruit of your ground. (Deuteronomy 28:43)  “The sojourner who is among you rises higher and higher above you, but you come down lower and lower. (Deuteronomy 28:44)  “He lends to you, but you do not lend to him. He is the head, and you are the tail. (Deuteronomy 28:45)  “And all these curses shall come upon you, and they shall pursue and overtake you, until you are destroyed, because you did not obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim, to guard His commands and His laws which He commanded you. (Deuteronomy 28:46)  “And they shall be upon you for a sign and for a wonder, and on your seed, forever. (Deuteronomy 28:47)  “Because you did not serve יהוה your Elohim with joy and gladness of heart for all the plenty, (Deuteronomy 28:48) you shall serve your enemies whom יהוה sends against you, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in need of all. And he shall put a yoke of iron on your neck until he has destroyed you. (Deuteronomy 28:49)  “יהוה brings a nation against you from afar, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flies, a nation whose language you shall not understand, (Deuteronomy 28:50) a fierce-looking nation, which shows no regard for the elderly nor show favor to the young, (Deuteronomy 28:51)  and they shall eat the fruit of your livestock and the fruit of your land, until you are destroyed. They leave you no grain, nor new wine, nor oil, nor the increase of your cattle or the offspring of your flocks, until they have destroyed you. (Deuteronomy 28:52)  “And they shall besiege you at all your gates till your high and fenced walls, in which you are trusting, come down in all your land. And they shall besiege you at all your gates in all your land which יהוה your Elohim has given you. (Deuteronomy 28:53)  “And you shall eat the fruit of your own body, the flesh of your sons and your daughters whom יהוה your Elohim has given you, in the siege and distress in which your enemies distress you. (Deuteronomy 28:54)  “The man among you who is tender, and who is very delicate, his eye is evil against his brother, against the wife of his bosom, and against the rest of his children whom he leaves behind, (Deuteronomy 28:55) against giving any of them the flesh of his children that he eats, because it is all that has been left to him in the siege and distress with which your enemy distresses you in all your gates. (Deuteronomy 28:56)  “The tender and the delicate woman among you, who have not tried to set the sole of her foot on the ground because of her delicateness and tenderness, her eye is evil against the husband of her bosom, and against her son, and against her daughter, (Deuteronomy 28:57)  and against her seed which comes out from between her feet, and her children whom she bears, for she eats them in secret for lack of all, in the siege and distress with which your enemy distresses you in all your gates. (Deuteronomy 28:58)  “If you do not guard to do all the Words of this Torah that are written in this book, to fear this esteemed and awesome Name, יהוה your Elohim, (Deuteronomy 28:59)  then יהוה shall bring upon you and your descendants extraordinary plagues, great and lasting plagues, and grievous and lasting sicknesses. (Deuteronomy 28:60)  “And He shall bring back on you all the diseases of Mitsrayim, of which you were afraid, and they shall cling to you, (Deuteronomy 28:61)  also every sickness and every plague, which is not written in the book of this Torah, יהוה does bring upon you until you are destroyed. (Deuteronomy 28:62)  “And you shall be left with few men, although you had become as numerous as the stars of the heavens, because you did not obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim. (Deuteronomy 28:63)  “And it shall be that as יהוה rejoiced over you to do you good and increase you, so יהוה does rejoice over you to destroy you and lay you waste. And you shall be plucked from off the land which you go to possess. (Deuteronomy 28:64)  “And יהוה shall scatter you among all peoples, from one end of the earth to the other, and there you shall serve other mighty ones, which neither you nor your fathers have known, wood and stone. (Deuteronomy 28:65)  “And among those nations you are to find no rest, nor have a resting place for the sole of your foot. But there יהוה shall give you a trembling heart, and failing eyes, and sorrow of being. (Deuteronomy 28:66)  “And your life shall be hanging in suspense before you, and you shall fear day and night, and not be certain of your life. (Deuteronomy 28:67)  “In the morning you say, ‘Oh that it were evening!’ And at evening you say, ‘Oh, that it were morning!’ because of the fear of your heart, with which you fear, and because of the sight which your eyes see. (Deuteronomy 28:68)  “And יהוה shall bring you back to Mitsrayim in ships, by a way of which I said to you, ‘You are never to see it again.’ And there you shall be sold to your enemies as male and female slaves, but no one to buy.”

 

(Deuteronomy 29:1)  These are the words of the covenant which יהוה commanded Mosheh to make with the children of Yisra’ĕl in the land of Mo’aḇ, besides the covenant which He made with them in Ḥorĕḇ. (Deuteronomy 29:2)  And Mosheh called all Yisra’ĕl and said to them, “You yourselves saw all that יהוה did before your eyes in the land of Mitsrayim, to Pharaoh and to all his servants and to all his land. (Deuteronomy 29:3)  “Your eyes saw the great trials, the signs, and those great wonders. (Deuteronomy 29:4)  “But יהוה has not given you a heart to know and eyes to see and ears to hear, till this day. (Deuteronomy 29:5)  “And I have led you forty years in the wilderness. Your garments have not worn out on you, and your sandals have not worn out on your feet. (Deuteronomy 29:6)  “You ate no bread and drank no wine nor strong drink, so that you might know that I am יהוה your Elohim. (Deuteronomy 29:7)  “And when you came to this place, Siḥon sovereign of Ḥeshbon and Oḡ sovereign of Bashan came out against us to battle, and we smote them, (Deuteronomy 29:8)  and took their land and gave it as an inheritance to the Re’uḇĕnites, and to the Gaḏites, and to half the tribe of Menashsheh.

 

 

Darkness must come from our disobedience on Planet Earth, but those of us who TESHUVAH (REPENT AND TURN TO FOLLOW HIM) will be a great light in vast darkness!

 

(Isa 60:1)  “Arise; shine, for your light has come! And the esteem of יהוה has risen upon you. (Isa 60:2)  “For look, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness the peoples. But יהוה arises over you, and His esteem is seen upon you. (Isa 60:3)  “And the gentiles shall come to your light¹ and sovereigns to the brightness of your rising. Footnote: ¹Isa. 60:19, 20, Rev. 21:23, 24. (Isa 60:4)  “Lift up your eyes all around and see: all of them have gathered, they have come to you; your sons come from afar, and your daughters are supported on the side. (Isa 60:5)  “Then you shall see and be bright, and your heart shall throb and swell, for the wealth of the sea is turned to you, the riches of the gentiles come to you. (Isa 60:6)  “A stream of camels covers your land, the dromedaries of Miḏyan and Ĕphah; all those from Sheḇa come, bearing gold and incense, and proclaiming the praises of יהוה. (Isa 60:7)  “All the flocks of Qĕḏar are gathered to you, the rams of Neḇayoth serve you; they come up for acceptance on my altar, and I embellish my esteemed House. (Isa 60:8)  “Who are these who fly like a cloud, and like doves to their windows? (Isa 60:9)  “Because the coastlands wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring your sons from afar, their silver and their gold with them, to the Name of יהוה your Elohim, and to the Set-apart One of Yisra’ĕl, because He has adorned you. (Isa 60:10)  “And the sons of foreigners shall build your walls, and their sovereigns serve you. For in my wrath I have smitten you, but in my delight I shall have compassion on you. (Isa 60:11)  “And your gates shall be open continually; they are not shut day or night, to bring to you the wealth of the gentiles, and their sovereigns in procession. (Isa 60:12)  “The nation and the reign that do not serve you shall perish; and those gentiles shall be utterly laid waste. (Isa 60:13)  “The esteem of Leḇanon shall come to you, cypress, pine, and the box tree together, to embellish the place of my set-apart place. And I shall make the place of my feet esteemed. (Isa 60:14)  “And the sons of those who afflicted you come bowing to you, and all those who despised you shall bow themselves at the soles of your feet. And they shall call you: City of יהוה, Tsiyon of the Set-apart One of Yisra’ĕl. (Isa 60:15)  “Instead of you being forsaken and hated, so that no one passes through you, I shall make you an everlasting excellence, a joy of many generations. (Isa 60:16)  “And you shall drink dry the milk of the gentiles, and shall milk the breast of sovereigns. And you shall know that I, יהוה, your Savior and your Redeemer, am the Elohim of Yaʽaqoḇ. (Isa 60:17)  “Instead of bronze I bring gold, and instead of iron I bring silver, and bronze instead of wood, and iron instead of stones. And I shall make your officers peace, and your magistrate’s righteousness. (Isa 60:18)  “Violence shall no longer be heard in your land, neither wasting nor ruin within your borders. And you shall call your walls Deliverance, and your gates Praise. (Isa 60:19)  “No longer is the sun your light by day, nor does the moon give light to you for brightness, but יהוה shall be to you an everlasting light, and your Elohim your comeliness. (Isa 60:20)  “No longer does your sun go down, nor your moon withdraw itself, for יהוה shall be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning shall be ended. (Isa 60:21)  “And your people, all of them righteous, shall inherit the earth forever – a branch of my planting, a work of my hands, to be adorned. (Isa 60:22)  “The little shall become a thousand and the small one a strong nation¹. I, יהוה, shall hasten it in its time.” Footnote: ¹See 41:14, Dan. 2:34-44.

 

 

 

(Rom 11:1)  I say then, has Elohim rejected His people? Let it not be! I also am a Yisra’ĕlite, of the seed of Aḇraham, of the tribe of Binyamin. (Rom 11:2)  Elohim has not rejected His people whom He knew beforehand.¹ or do you not know what the Scripture says of Ěliyahu, how he pleads with Elohim against Yisra’ĕl, saying, Footnote: ¹Ps. 94:14. (Rom 11:3)  “יהוה, they have killed your prophets and overthrown your altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life”? (Rom 11:4)  But what does the answer of Elohim say to him? “I have left for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baʽal.” (Rom 11:5)  So therefore also, at this present time a remnant according to the choice of favor has come to be.  (Rom 11:6)  And if by favor, it is no longer of works, otherwise favor is no longer favor. And if it is of works, it is no longer favor; otherwise work is no longer work. (Rom 11:7)  What then? Yisra’ĕl has not obtained what it seeks, but the chosen did obtain it, and the rest were hardened. (Rom 11:8)  As it has been written, “יהוה has given them a spirit of deep sleep, eyes not to see and ears not to hear, unto this day.” (Rom 11:9)  Dawiḏ also says, “Let their table become for a snare, and for a trap, and for a stumbling-block and recompense to them, (Rom 11:10)  let their eyes be darkened, not to see, and bow down their back always.” (Rom 11:11)  I say then, have they stumbled that they should fall? Let it not be! But by their fall deliverance has come to the gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy. (Rom 11:12)  And if their fall is riches for the world, and their failure riches for the gentiles, how much more their completeness! (Rom 11:13)  For I speak to you, the gentiles, inasmuch as I am an emissary to the gentiles, I esteem my service, (Rom 11:14) if somehow I might provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh and save some of them. (Rom 11:15)  For if their casting away is the restoration to favor of the world, what is their acceptance but life from the dead?

 

 

Loved One, I pray YOU make every effort to love the Creator according to His desires and not our learned ones that are filled with pagan ritual both in Churchianity and Judaism. I pray that we may each look inwardly and turn- yes turn our own stiff necks toward Him and follow Him in loving obedience- that all the blessings He has planned for us may OVERTAKE US! I pray you gain an ear to hear Him and the courage to obey Him! I pray that you draw ever close to our Creator so that you FEAR NOT no matter what the “kings of the earth” do! Thanks for your continued prayers for me- they are cherished- sometimes we get to walk alone and I thank you! Thank you! And THANK YOU! You are much loved!

 

Shalom to your heart and home loved one!
