Why
we are on a different schedule of the Torah Cycle than the mainstream and the

continued at end of this week’s study…
HEADS UP AGAIN LOVED ONES
I am getting married Shabbat evening the 16th (HalleluYAH-
later tonight! Yah willing) in a riverside Hebrew wedding so please
continue your stand with Billie and me against all forces of darkness. Thank
you all for your Heavenly directed prayers! Pray
for Tina in South Africa (see

those from Steve and Ramsgate and those of you in South Africa and Namibia!
Thanks also to you who are scattered through the Americas- what a wonderful
family we have- all of you have been so gracious- the schemes of hell are being
vanquished because of you and your diligent Heavenly directed words! Thank you- Thank You, THANK YOU! You ARE SHOWING a powerful description of what happens when the effective

Dear
Thurston
We

Prayer Request from South Africa!
Shalom my
friends, family and team prayer warriors - Tina was hospitalized this morning with severe pains in
her chest - a Heart Examination has resulted in her Specialist booking her in
for surgery in a couple of hours to undergo a triple bypass. Please would you
contact some of the team prayers and ask them to lift Tina to FATHER, that HIS
will to be done. Though we are not fearful, she is obviously
(even at her age) concerned about the cosmetic effects of heart surgery.
Whatever, I would cherish any prayer that you would give FATHER in her favor,
particularly that any form of depression does not attach! Will keep you
informed in due course. Thanking you in anticipation and bless you in HIS name.
Shalom Aliechem-Steve The Prayer Window
Last week we added Forgiveness to our
arsenal of vital requirements of our continued submission to our King and His
word (TORAH) ---anyone YOU and I need to forgive still? We must get rid
of unbelief and lack of forgiveness blocks that process- ESPECIALLY if we want
our prayers to be effective!
GOOD NEWS FOR YOU AND I- despite of the enemy’s plan!
This Torah Study is Wayyyy late as we
have been overwhelmed with preparations (Especially Billie and friends) Thank
you truly for all the wonderful prayers and kind acts and words for us! Tonight
several couples came and after dinner we worshipped ad prayed until midnight-
hence; since it is already Shabbat- I am now fast at work preparing the study
for you.
This evening after the rehearsal dinner of sorts- several
of us spent time worshipping and praying! We were indeed exhausted but during
the 3 hour time of intense private prayer and worship we discovered something
identical we (at least the 3 men present) had heard from YHWH! This should
reassure us all that as we seek our Father’s heart ad of course, the very
desires of our King Yahshua; no plan of hell will succeed- Isaiah 54:17 will
indeed be a reality! Most of you know some 25 years ago – I- in anger confronted
the Lord about that Scripture…here’s the dialogue for your benefit-
(Isa 54:17)
“No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which raises
against you in judgment you shall prove wrong. This is the inheritance of the
servants of יהוה, and their righteousness
from me,” declares יהוה.
Yes I realize that particular promise seems too good to be true- but when I
explain my heart’s cry 25 years ago- then I will share what we 3 were told over
the last year and a half—exactly the same words- all three of us! None of us
knew what the others had been told but was revealed as we worshipped last
night! Okay so here was my contention and wrestling with YHWH- (Praise Him for His mercy ad goodness!)…
Lord- that
Scripture should not even be in the Bible- it’s not true!” Yahshua responded quickly- “I destroyed the works of hell!” I replied-
“What? How can you even say that- with
all the attacks against so many of us believing Christians?” Yahshua responded a second time, “I destroyed the
works of hell!”
I replied with a question again- “You
destroyed the works of hell- how can you even say that with so many of us with
cancers, disease, divorces, lost jobs, bankrupt companies? If that is true –
how come so many of us are experiencing all sorts of torment- if you really
destroyed the works of hell?” His reply was quick, somewhat stern; yet
still full of love and compassion! “I destroyed the works of hell but I did NOT destroy
your tongues! Satan has no power of his own- he only steals yours with sending
you the storm and evil facts! You agree with hell as though the storm is more
than factual- you report it as a believed TRUTH! Son, what is sen is temporal
or temporary, but although heaven and earth will pass – my words are truth and
will remain- if you agree with hell with your own words- I stand down- because
you have believed the lie. The power of LIFE and DEATH are in your tongue and
you will indeed eat its fruit! - hasatan really has NO power of his own- he
just steals yours!” Agree with the 2 spies and not the 10- yes there will be
giants in the land- but DO NOT agree with them having any power to stay or
overcome you- STAND FIRM and buy from me gold that is refined I the fire by
what you speak- FAITH and TRUST in my spoken word- this is why I renamed Abram
to Abraham- so he would continually speak my desires until he believed and the
promise (the thing hoped for)
could come forth- ABRAHAM-
Means FATHER OF MANY NATIONS and indeed is, was, and will
be TRUTH!”
(Pro 18:21) Death and life are in the power of the
tongue, and those loving it eat its fruit.
With that correction directly from Yahshua in mind- here
is the very same term Yahshua spoke to each of us three at various times during
the last year and a half- these spoken words to us- some through prophetic
friends and other through direct hearing- so relax and draw near to our KING-
we can really really FEAR NOT!
“When the enemy comes against you with
overwhelming power and evil intent- you will speak- and they will turn to
dust in front of you- like when Elijah spoke to the hundred soldiers sent
by the evil king twice and they all died!”
Why MUST you
know this? Because this is who you are and will become as the 2 witnesses in
HIS HAND- JUDAH and EPHRAIM! Hallelu-Yah- draw near!
AGAIN today we address the effectual
fervent prayers of the righteous- YOU!
First let’s look at The Scriptures
version:
(James
5:16)
Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, so that you
are healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous one accomplishes much. (James 5:17)
Ěliyahu was a man with feelings like us, and he prayed earnestly that it
would not rain. And it did not rain on the land for three years and six months.
(James 5:18)
And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the land brought
forth its fruit. (James 5:19) Brothers, if anyone among you goes astray
from the truth, and someone turns him back, (James
5:20) let him know that he who
turns a sinner from the straying of his way shall save a life from death and
cover a great number of sins.
Now let’s look also at the KJV: (James
5:16)
Confess your faults one to another, and
pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous
man availeth much. (James 5:17) Elias was a man subject to like passions as
we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on
the earth by the space of three years and six months. (James
5:18) And he prayed again, and
the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit. (James 5:19) Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth,
and one convert him; (James 5:20) Let him know,
that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul
from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.
I
want us to consider a few points about this teaching given us by Ya’Akov (James):
Point 1- we
MUST confess our own sins and transgressions against YHWH and people to have
our Creators audience.
Point 2 –
only the compassion of the indwelling Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) really allows
us to have fervent and compassionate prayers for others and gives us confidence
that our prayers are not only heard but already answered BEFORE we actually see
the desired results and manifestation. We must pray for one another which is
not natural to the unborn again person but quite natural for us who are really
born again and drawn close to our Master and King Yahshua!
Point 3 –
Elijah was a real man with strengths and weaknesses just like us! Of course “man”
used here is what YHWH created- MAN- male and female man; or we could say man
and man with womb that completes man- WOMAN. Note also the 42 Hebrew
months spoken with this manifestation of great prayer power for the fervent and
diligent may very well be a hidden reminder to us of the overwhelming prayer
power we will experience now and during the 42 months or 3 ½ years of the GREAT
TRIBULATION or Jacob’s Trouble- We WILL DO EXPLOITS IN HIS NAME!
Point 4 -
Diligent and fervent prayer is prayer that is believed and given thanks for
before you actually see the results and maybe even when hasatan shows you
results exactly opposite of the word of YAH you are speaking and confessing
heavenward. We must stand and resist the “facts” that hasatan is guaranteed to
send to steal the word we just planted.
Here are some Scriptures that come to
mind for us to consider:
(James 4:7) So then subject (submit) yourselves to Elohim (Comment: obviously this submission is done
with our tongues and minds- speaking and thinking on His word- and then obeying
it!). 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?
Can we Give Thanks? (Before we see the
desired results- that IS faith and trust!)
(1Jn 5:14) And this is the
boldness that we have in Him, that if we ask whatever according to His desire,
He hears us. (1Jn 5:15) And if we know that He hears us, whatever we
ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.
Why
is it so important 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.
We
are not under condemnation Loved One- hasatan alone is condemned and he
purposes to put on us- the death and condemnation pronounced on him… Are we fearful? YHWH did not give us a
spirit of fear… (2Ti 1:7) For Elohim has
not given us a spirit of cowardice (Fear),
but of power and of love and of self-control (Sound mind).
We must clean up and make ourselves ready as His BRIDE
and allow Him to make us who were once DRY BONES to become the restored! We
cannot follow those of various religious systems 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.” (He said MY Sabbaths- seems we can’t pick
our own)
It is our
destiny to seek Him with all our hearts, soul, and body and walk in His glory
realm; His mercy, compassion, provision, protection and power! (Jeremiah 29:11)
‘For I know the plans I am planning for you,’ declares יהוה, ‘plans of peace and not of evil,
to give you a future and expectancy. (Jeremiah 29:12) ‘Then
you shall call on me, and shall come and pray to me, and I shall listen to you.
(Jeremiah 29:13) ‘And
you shall seek me, and shall find me, when you search for me with all your
heart1. Footnote: 1Dt.
4:29, Joel 2:12. (Jeremiah 29:14) ‘And I shall be found by you,’ declares יהוה, ‘and I
shall turn back your captivity, and shall gather you from all the gentiles and
from all the places where I have driven you, declares יהוה. And I shall bring you back to the place
from which I have exiled you.’ (Gen 13:17)
"Arise, walk about the land through its length and breadth; for I
will give it to you." (Eph 5:14) That is why He says, “Arise, wake up you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and
Messiah shall shine on you.” (Isa 60:1) “Arise
and shine, for your light has come! And the esteem (glory) of יהוה has risen upon you.
Loved One- WE MUST CONSIDER: Jacob’s
Trouble is OUR TROUBLE AND TESTS! (And we are learning we can overcome
all plans of hell!)
(Not the Jews only
trouble-ALL Israel- especially us who claim being grafted in) is approaching all living on the earth. What is it that
you and I desire to accomplish in our short time here on Planet Earth? Is it
fame, wealth, pleasure, more toys and “stuff” or possibly something more
lasting…say eternal? What is worthy of our life’s mission and accomplishment? Will we allow our lives to be
broken and changed into His image by our own choice or will we soon be
pulverized and destroyed leaving nothing- all our worldly accomplishments
burned up leaving nothing but ash? Mat 21:44 “And he
who falls on this stone (The
Word- Yahshua) shall be broken, 1 but on
whomever it falls, he shall be pulverized.” Footnote:
1Rom. 8:10 & 13, Col. 3:5. (Deuteronomy
30:19) “I have called the heavens and the earth as witnesses today
against you: I have set before you life and death, the blessing
and the curse. Therefore you shall choose life, so that
you live, both you and your seed, (Deuteronomy
30:20) to love יהוה your Elohim, to obey His
voice, and to cling to Him – for He is your life and the length of your days –
to dwell in the land which יהוה
swore to your fathers, to Aḇraham, to Yitsḥaq, and to Yaʽaqoḇ, to give
them.”
Here’s our prayer Yah suggests for us to make below- Our Words direct us! Start
today hiding the Word of YHWH in your heart-memorize some Scripture daily! Use
this prayer!
(Luke 21:36)
You watch you therefore and pray always, that
you may be accounted worthy to escape all
these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Of
course the goal would be to stand unashamed before Yahshua having
produced fruit that will remain!
(Mat 12:34) “You brood of adders! How are you able to
speak what is good – being wicked? For
the mouth speaks from the overflow of the heart. (Mat 12:35) “The good man brings forth what is good from
the good treasures of his heart, and the wicked man brings forth what is wicked
from the wicked treasure. (Mat 12:36)
“And I say to you that for every idle (careless) word men speak, they shall give an account of it in the
Day of Judgment. (Mat 12:37) “For by your words you shall be declared
righteous, and by your words you shall be declared unrighteous (condemned).”
If no man (male or female) can tame the
tongue, which yields our direction similar to a bridle on a horse or a rudder
on a ship; how then can our tongue be tamed? Too many “teachers” putting down others and building their own
kingdoms- which of course will be burned with fire! (Pro 18:21) Death and life are in the power of the
tongue, and those loving it eat its fruit.
Please join in with believers worldwide and fast and pray
and receive His INSTRUCTIONS and power Loved One that we escape the traps and
schemes of the devil and still remain standing at His appearing- having
produced much fruit that REMAINS! Hallelu-YAH! WITH
THAT DECISION IN OUR HEARTS AND MINDS; let’s
turn our hearts to this week’s Torah Cycle:
This week’s Torah Scriptures:
Shemot “Names”
Exodus
1:1-6:1; Isaiah 27:6-28:13; Isaiah 29:22-23; Jeremiah 1:1-2:3; Acts 7: 17-29
Names of the Tribes of Israel
(Exodus 1:1)
And these are the names of the children of Yisra’ĕl who came to
Mitsrayim with Yaʽaqoḇ, each one with his
household: (Exodus 1:2) Re’uḇĕn, Shimʽon,
Lĕwi, and Yehuḏah; (Exodus 1:3) Yissasḵar,
Zeḇulun, and Binyamin; (Exodus 1:4) Dan and
Naphtali, Gaḏ and Ashĕr. (Exodus 1:5) And all those who were descendants of
Yaʽaqoḇ were seventy beings, as Yosĕph was already in Mitsrayim. (Exodus 1:6)
And Yosĕph died, and all his brothers, and all that generation. (Exodus 1:7)
And the children of Yisra’ĕl bore fruit and increased very much,
multiplied and became very strong, and the land was filled with them. (Exodus 1:8)
Then a new sovereign arose over Mitsrayim, who did not know Yosĕph, (Exodus 1:9) and he said to his people, “See, the
people of the children of Yisra’ĕl are more and stronger than we, (Exodus 1:10) come, let us act wisely towards them,
lest they increase, and it shall be when fighting befalls us, that they shall
join our enemies and fight against us, and shall go up out of the land.” (Exodus 1:11)
So they set slave-masters over them to afflict them with their burdens,
and they built for Pharaoh Supply cities, Pithom and Raʽamses. (Exodus 1:12)
But the more they afflicted them, the more they increased and grew, and
they were in dread of the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Exodus
1:13) And the Mitsrites made the
children of Yisra’ĕl serve with harshness, (Exodus
1:14) and they made their lives
bitter with hard bondage, in mortar, and in brick, and in all kinds of work in
the field, all their work which they made them do was with harshness. (Exodus 1:15)
Then the sovereign of Mitsrayim spoke to the Heḇrew midwives, of whom
the name of one was Shiphrah and the name of the other Puʽah, (Exodus 1:16) and he said, “When you deliver the
Heḇrew women, and see them on the birth stools, if it is a son, then you shall
put him to death, but if it is a daughter, then she shall live.” (Exodus 1:17)
But the midwives feared Elohim, and did not do as the sovereign of
Mitsrayim commanded them, and kept the male children alive. (Exodus 1:18)
So the sovereign of Mitsrayim called for the midwives and said to them,
“Why have you done this, and kept the male children alive?” (Exodus 1:19)
And the midwives said to Pharaoh, “Because the Heḇrew women are not
like the Mitsrite women. For they are lively and give birth before the midwives
come to them.” (Exodus 1:20) So Elohim was good to the midwives, and the
people increased and became very numerous. (Exodus
1:21) And it came to be, because
the midwives feared Elohim that He provided households for them. (Exodus 1:22)
And Pharaoh commanded all his people, saying, “Throw every son who is
born into the river, and keep alive every daughter.”
Moses- a shadow of us in Messiah- was
protected and used mightily- and Yah willing (and us willing and obedient) so
will we be used to produce fruit that remains!
(Exodus 2:1)
And a man of the house of Lĕwi went and married a daughter of Lĕwi. (Exodus 2:2)
And the woman conceived and bore a son. And she saw that he was a lovely
child, and she hid him three months. (Exodus 2:3) And when she could hide him no longer, she
took an ark of wicker for him, and coated it with tar and pitch, and put the
child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the edge of the river. (Exodus 2:4)
And his sister stood at a distance, to know what would be done to him. (Exodus 2:5)
And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river, and
her young women were walking by the river-side. And when she saw the ark among
the reeds, she sent her female servant to get it, (Exodus
2:6) and opened it and saw the child, and see, the baby wept. So she had
compassion on him, and said, “This is one of the children of the Heḇrews.”
(Exodus 2:7)
And his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Shall I go and call a nurse
for you from the Heḇrew women to nurse the child for you?” (Exodus 2:8)
And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Go.” And the girl went and called
the child’s mother. (Exodus 2:9) And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take
this child away and nurse him for me, then I shall pay your wages.” So the
woman took the child and nursed him. (Exodus 2:10) And the child grew, and she brought him to
Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Mosheh,
saying, “Because I have drawn him out of the water.” (Exodus
2:11) And in those days it came
to be, when Mosheh was grown, that he went out to his brothers and looked at
their burdens. And he saw a Mitsrite beating a Heḇrew, one of his brothers. (Exodus 2:12)
So he turned this way and that way, and when he saw no one, he smote the
Mitsrite and hid him in the sand. (Exodus 2:13) And he went out the second day and saw two
Heḇrew men fighting, and he said to the one who did the wrong, “Why do you
smite your neighbor?” (Exodus 2:14) And he said, “Who made you a head and a judge
over us? Do you intend to slay me as you slew the Mitsrite?” And Mosheh feared
and said, “Truly, the matter is known!” (Exodus 2:15) And Pharaoh heard of this matter, and he
sought to kill Mosheh. But Mosheh fled from the face of Pharaoh and dwelt in
the land of Miḏyan. And he sat down by a well. (Exodus
2:16) And the priest of Miḏyan
had seven daughters. And they came and drew water, and they filled the troughs
to water their father’s flock, (Exodus 2:17) but
the shepherds came and drove them away. Then Mosheh stood up and came to their
rescue, and watered their flock. (Exodus 2:18) And they came to Reʽuw’ĕl their father, and
he said, “How is it that you have come so soon today?” (Exodus
2:19) And they said, “A Mitsrite
rescued us from the hand of the shepherds, and he also drew enough water for us
and watered the flock.” (Exodus 2:20) And he said to his daughters, “And where is
he? Why did you leave the man? Call him and let him eat bread.” (Exodus 2:21)
And Mosheh agreed to dwell with the man, and he gave Tsipporah his
daughter to Mosheh. (Exodus 2:22) And she bore him a son, and he called his
name Gĕreshom, for he said, “I have become a sojourner in a foreign land.” (Exodus 2:23)
And it came to be after these many days that the sovereign of Mitsrayim
died. And the children of Yisra’ĕl groaned because of the slavery, and they
cried out. And their cry came up to Elohim because of the slavery. (Exodus 2:24)
And Elohim heard their groaning, and Elohim remembered His covenant with
Aḇraham, with Yitsḥaq, and with Yaʽaqoḇ. (Exodus
2:25) And Elohim looked on the
children of Yisra’ĕl, and Elohim knew!
YHWH IS a consuming fire not a consumed
one!
(Exodus 3:1)
And Mosheh was shepherding the flock of Yithro his father-in-law, the
priest of Miḏyan. And he led the flock to
the back of the wilderness, and came to Ḥorĕḇ, the mountain of Elohim. (Exodus 3:2)
And the Messenger of יהוה appeared to him in a flame of fire
from the midst of a bush. And he looked and saw the bush burning with fire, but
the bush was not consumed. (Exodus 3:3) And Mosheh said, “Let me turn aside now, and
see this great sight, why the bush does not burn.” (Exodus
3:4) And יהוה saw that he turned aside to see, and
Elohim called to him from the midst of the bush and said, “Mosheh! Mosheh!” And
he said, “Here I am.” (Exodus 3:5) And He said, “Do not come near here. Take
your sandals off your feet, for the place on which you are standing is
set-apart ground.” (Exodus 3:6) And He said, “I am the Elohim of your father,
the Elohim of Aḇraham, the Elohim of Yitsḥaq, and the Elohim of Yaʽaqoḇ.”
And Mosheh hid his face, for he was afraid to look at Elohim. (Exodus 3:7)
And יהוה
said, “I have indeed seen the oppression of my people who are in Mitsrayim, and
have heard their cry because of their slave-drivers, for I know their sorrows. (Exodus 3:8)
“And I have come down to deliver them from the hand of the Mitsrites,
and to bring them up from that land to a good and spacious land, to a land
flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Kenaʽanites and the Ḥittites
and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Ḥiwwites and the Yeḇusites. (Exodus 3:9)
“And now, see, the cry of the children of Yisra’ĕl has come to me, and I
have also seen the oppression with which the Mitsrites oppress them. (Exodus 3:10)
“And now, come, I am sending you to Pharaoh, to bring my people, the
children of Yisra’ĕl, out of Mitsrayim.” (Exodus 3:11) And Mosheh said to Elohim, “Who am I that I
should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Yisra’ĕl out of
Mitsrayim?” (Exodus 3:12) And He said, “Because I am with you. And this
is to you the sign that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out
of Mitsrayim, you are to serve Elohim on this mountain.” (Exodus 3:13)
And Mosheh said to Elohim, “See, when I come to the children of Yisra’ĕl
and say to them, ‘The Elohim of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they say
to me, ‘What is His Name?’ what shall I say to them?” (Exodus
3:14) And Elohim said to Mosheh, “I am that which I am.”1 And He said,
“Thus you shall say to the children of Yisra’ĕl, ‘I am has sent me to you.’ ” Footnote: 1The Heḇrew text reads: ’eyeh ’asher
’eyeh, the word ’eyeh being derived from hayah which means to be, to exist, but
the Aramaic text here in v. 14 reads: ayah ashar ayah. This is not His Name,
but it is an explanation that leads up to the revelation of His Name in v. 15,
namely: יהוה.
(Exodus 3:15) And Elohim said further to Mosheh, “Thus you are to say to the children of
Yisra’ĕl, ‘יהוה
Elohim of your fathers, the Elohim of Aḇraham, the Elohim of Yitsḥaq, and the
Elohim of Yaʽaqoḇ, has sent me to you. This is My Name forever, and this is my
remembrance to all generations.’ (Exodus 3:16) “Go, and you shall gather the elders of
Yisra’ĕl together, and say to them, ‘יהוה Elohim of your fathers, the Elohim of
Aḇraham, of Yitsḥaq, and of Yaʽaqoḇ, appeared to me, saying, “I have indeed
visited you and seen what is done to you in Mitsrayim; (Exodus
3:17) and I say: I am bringing
you up out of the affliction of Mitsrayim to the land of the Kenaʽanite and the
Ḥittite and the Amorite and the Perizzite and the Ḥiwwite and the Yeḇusite,
to a land flowing with milk and honey.” ’ (Exodus
3:18) “And they shall listen to your voice. And you shall come, you and
the elders of Yisra’ĕl, to the sovereign of Mitsrayim, and you shall say to
him, ‘יהוה
Elohim of the Heḇrews has met with us. And now, please, let us go three days’
journey into the wilderness to slaughter to יהוה our Elohim.’ (Exodus
3:19) “But I know that the
sovereign of Mitsrayim is not going to let you go, not even by a strong hand. (Exodus 3:20)
“And I shall stretch out my hand and smite Mitsrayim with all my wonders
which I shall do in its midst. And after that he shall let you go. (Exodus 3:21)
“And I shall give this people favor in the eyes of the Mitsrites. And it
shall be that when you go, you shall not go empty-handed. (Exodus 3:22)
“But every woman shall ask from her neighbor and from the stranger in
her house, objects of silver, and objects of gold, and garments. And you shall
put them on your sons and on your daughters, and shall plunder the Mitsrites.” (Exodus 4:1)
And Mosheh answered and said, “And if they do not believe me, nor listen
to my voice, and say, ‘יהוה has not
appeared to you?’ ” (Exodus 4:2) and יהוה said to
him, “What is that in your hand?” And he said, “A rod.” (Exodus 4:3) And He said,
“Throw it on the ground.” So he threw it on the ground, and it became a
serpent. And Mosheh fled from it. (Exodus 4:4) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Reach out your hand and
take it by the tail” – so he reached out his hand and caught it, and it became
a rod in his hand – (Exodus 4:5) so that they
believe that יהוה Elohim of their fathers, the Elohim of Aḇraham, the Elohim of
Yitsḥaq, and the Elohim of Yaʽaqoḇ, has appeared to you.” (Exodus 4:6)
And יהוה
said to him again, “Now put your hand in your bosom.” And he put his hand in
his bosom, and when he took it out, and see; his hand was leprous, like snow. (Exodus 4:7)
And He said, “Put your hand in your bosom again.” So he put his hand in
his bosom again, and drew it out of his bosom, and see, it was restored like
his other flesh. (Exodus 4:8) “And it shall be, if they do not believe you,
nor listen to the voice of the first sign, they shall believe the voice of the
latter sign. (Exodus 4:9) “And it shall be, if they do not believe even
these two signs, or listen to your voice, that you shall take water from the
river and pour it on the dry land. And the water which you take from the river
shall become blood on the dry land.” (Exodus 4:10) And Mosheh said to יהוה, “O יהוה, I am not a man of words, neither before
nor since you have spoken to Your servant, for I am slow of speech and slow of
tongue.” (Exodus 4:11) And יהוה said to him, “Who has made man’s mouth? Or
who makes dumb, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, יהוה? (Exodus 4:12)
“And now, go, and I shall be with your mouth and teach you what to say.”
(Exodus 4:13)
But he said, “O יהוה, please send by the hand of him whom you would send.” (Exodus 4:14) And the displeasure of יהוה burned against Mosheh, and He said, “Is
not Aharon the Lĕwite your brother? I know that he speaks well. And see, he is
also coming out to meet you. And when he sees you, he shall be glad in his
heart. (Exodus 4:15) “And you shall speak to him and put the words
in his mouth. And I am with your mouth and with his mouth, and I shall teach
you what to do. (Exodus 4:16) “And he shall speak for you to the people.
And it shall be that he shall be a mouth for you, and you shall be an elohim1 for him. Footnote:
1Or mighty one, which is proof that Elohim is but a
title, indicating order or authority – it is not a proper name. (Exodus 4:17)
“And take this rod in your hand, with which you shall do the signs.” (Exodus 4:18)
Then Mosheh went and returned to Yithro his father-in-law, and said to
him, “Please let me go and return to my brothers who are in Mitsrayim to see
whether they are still alive.” And Yithro said to Mosheh, “Go in peace.” (Exodus 4:19)
And יהוה
said to Mosheh in Miḏyan, “Go, return to Mitsrayim, for all the men are dead
who sought your life.” (Exodus 4:20) So Mosheh took his wife and his sons and set
them on a donkey, and he returned to the land of Mitsrayim. And Mosheh took the
rod of Elohim in his hand. (Exodus 4:21) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “As you go back to
Mitsrayim, see that you do all those wonders before Pharaoh which I have put in
your hand. But I am going to harden his heart, so that he does not let the
people go. (Exodus 4:22) “And you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus said יהוה,
“Yisra’ĕl is my son, my first-born, (Exodus 4:23) so I say to you, let my son go to serve me.
But if you refuse to let him go, see, I am killing your son, your first-born.”
’ ” (Exodus 4:24) And it came to be on the way,
in the lodging place, that יהוה met him and sought to kill him. (Exodus
4:25) And Tsipporah took a sharp
stone and cut off the foreskin of her son and threw it at Mosheh’s feet, and
said, “You are indeed a bridegroom of blood to me!” (Exodus
4:26) So He let him go. Then she
said, “You are a bridegroom of blood,” because of the circumcision. (Exodus 4:27)
And יהוה
said to Aharon, “Go to meet Mosheh in the wilderness.” And he went and met him
on the mountain of Elohim, and kissed him. (Exodus
4:28) Mosheh then told Aharon all
the words of יהוה who had sent him, and all the signs which He had commanded him.
(Exodus 4:29)
And Mosheh went with Aharon and gathered together all the elders of the
children of Yisra’ĕl. (Exodus 4:30) And Aharon spoke all the words which יהוה had
spoken to Mosheh. Then he did the signs before the eyes of the people. (Exodus 4:31)
And the people believed. And they heard that יהוה had visited the children of Yisra’ĕl and
that He had looked on their affliction, and they bowed their heads and did
obeisance.
Our enemies don’t know YHWH- rest assured they will be introduced!
(Exodus 5:1) And afterwards Mosheh and Aharon went in and
said to Pharaoh, “Thus said יהוה Elohim of Yisra’ĕl, ‘Let My people
go, so that they keep a festival to me in the wilderness.’ ” (Exodus 5:2) And Pharaoh said, “Who is יהוה, that I
should obey His voice to let Yisra’ĕl go? I do not know יהוה, nor am I going to let Yisra’ĕl go.” (Exodus 5:3)
And they said, “The Elohim of the Heḇrews has met with us. Please, let
us go three days’ journey into the wilderness and slaughter to יהוה our Elohim, lest
He fall upon us with pestilence or with the sword.” (Exodus
5:4) But the sovereign of
Mitsrayim said to them, “Mosheh and Aharon, why do you take the people from
their work? Get back to your burdens.” (Exodus 5:5) And Pharaoh said, “See, the people of the
land are many now, and you make them cease from their burdens!” (Exodus 5:6)
And the same day Pharaoh commanded the slave-drivers of the people and
their foremen, saying, (Exodus 5:7) “You are no
longer to give the people straw to make bricks as before. Let them go and
gather straw for themselves. (Exodus 5:8) “And lay on them the required amount of
bricks which they made before, do not diminish it. For they are idle, that is
why they cry out, saying, ‘Let us go and slaughter to our Elohim.’ (Exodus 5:9)
“Let more work be laid on the men, so that they labor in it, and not pay
attention to words of falsehood.” (Exodus 5:10) And the slave-drivers of the people and their
foremen went out and spoke to the people, saying, “Thus said Pharaoh, ‘I do not
give you straw. (Exodus 5:11) ‘Go, take straw for yourselves, wherever you
find it, for your work shall not be diminished.’ ” (Exodus
5:12) And the people were scattered in all the land of Mitsrayim – to
gather stubble for straw. (Exodus 5:13) And the slave-drivers were hurrying them on,
saying, “Complete your work, your daily amount, as when there was straw.” (Exodus 5:14)
Also the foremen of the children of Yisra’ĕl, whom Pharaoh’s
slave-drivers had set over them, were beaten and were asked, “Why have you not
completed your task in making bricks both yesterday and today, as before?” (Exodus 5:15)
And the foremen of the children of Yisra’ĕl came and cried out to
Pharaoh, saying, “Why do you treat your servants this way? (Exodus 5:16)
“There is no straw given to your servants, and they say to us, ‘Make
bricks!’ And see, your servants are beaten, but your own people are at fault.” (Exodus 5:17)
But he said, “You are idle! You are idle! That is why you say, ‘Let us
go and slaughter to יהוה.’ (Exodus 5:18) “So now- go work. And straw is not given to
you, but deliver the amount of bricks.” (Exodus 5:19) And the foremen of the children of Yisra’ĕl
saw that they were in trouble after it was said; “You are not to diminish your
daily amount of bricks.” (Exodus 5:20) And when they came out from Pharaoh, they met
Mosheh and Aharon who stood there to meet them. (Exodus
5:21) And they said to them, “Let
יהוה
look on you and judge, because you have made us loathsome in the eyes of
Pharaoh and in the eyes of his servants, to give a sword in their hand to kill
us.” (Exodus 5:22) And Mosheh returned to יהוה and said, “יהוה, why have you done evil to this people?
Why did you send me? (Exodus 5:23) “For ever since I came to Pharaoh to speak in
Your Name, he has done evil to this people. And you have not delivered your
people at all.” (Exodus 6:1) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Now see what I do
to Pharaoh, for with a strong hand he is going to let them go, and with a
strong hand he is going to drive them out of his land.”
We are now
blossoming and budding through fiery trials purchasing faith and trust!
(Isa 27:6)
Those who come He causes to take root in Yaʽaqoḇ,
Yisra’ĕl shall blossom and bud. And they shall fill the face of the world with
fruit. (Isa 27:7) Has He smitten him as He smote those who were
smiting him? Or were they slain as those they had slaughtered? (Isa 27:8) In
measure, by sending her away, you contended with her. He shall take away by His
rough wind in the day of the east wind. (Isa 27:9) Therefore by this the crookedness of Yaʽaqoḇ
is covered. And this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: when he makes all
the stones of the altar like chalkstones that are beaten to dust – Ashĕrim (Easters) and sun-pillars
rise no more. (Isa 27:10) For the city of defense is lonely, a home
forsaken and left like a wilderness – there the calf feeds, and there it lies
down, and shall consume its branches. (Isa 27:11) When its twigs are dry, they are broken off;
women come and set them on fire. This is a people of no understanding,
therefore He who made them has no compassion on them, and He who formed them
shows them no favor. (Isa 27:12) And in that day it shall be that יהוה threshes, from the channel of the
River to the wadi of Mitsrayim. And you shall be gathered one by one1, O children of Yisra’ĕl. Footnote: 1Jeremiah. 3:14-15. (Isa 27:13)
And in that day it shall be that a great horn is blown, and those who
were perishing in the land of Ashshur and the outcasts in the land of Mitsrayim
shall come, and shall worship יהוה on the set-apart mountain, in Yerushalayim. (Isa 28:1)
Woe to the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephrayim, and to the fading
flower of its splendid comeliness that is on the head of the fertile valley, to
those who are overcome with wine! (Isa 28:2) See, יהוה has one who is mighty and strong,
like a downpour of hail and a destroying storm, like a flood of mighty waters
overflowing, who casts down to the earth with the hand. (Isa 28:3) The proud crown
of the drunkards of Ephrayim, is trampled underfoot; (Isa
28:4) and the fading flower of
its splendid comeliness that is on the head of the fertile valley, like the
first fruit before the summer, which, when one sees it, he eats it up while it
is still in his hand. (Isa 28:5) In that day יהוה of hosts is for a crown of splendor and a
head-dress of comeliness to the remnant of His people, (Isa
28:6) and a spirit of
right-ruling to him who sits in right-ruling, and strength to those who turn
back the battle at the gate. (Isa 28:7) And these too have gone astray through wine,
and through strong drink wandered about. Priest and prophet have gone astray
through strong drink, they are swallowed up by wine, they wander about through
strong drink, they go astray in vision, and they stumble in right-ruling. (Isa 28:8) For
all tables shall be covered with vomit, no place without filth. (Isa 28:9)
Whom would He teach knowledge? And whom would He make to understand the
message? Those weaned from milk, those taken from the breasts! (Isa 28:10)
For it is: command upon command, command upon command, line upon line,
line upon line, here a little, there a little. (Isa
28:11) For with a jabbering lip
and a foreign tongue He speaks to this people, (Isa
28:12) to whom He said, “This is the rest, give rest to the weary,” and,
“This is the refreshing.” But they would not hear. (Isa
28:13) But the Word of יהוה was to
them, “Command upon command, command upon command, line upon line, line upon
line, here a little, there a little,” so that they go and shall stumble
backward, and be broken and snared and taken captive.
Ransomed Abraham? Yep- By renaming him!
(Isa 29:22)
Therefore; thus said יהוה;; who ransomed Aḇraham, concerning
the house of Yaʽaqoḇ, “Yaʽaqoḇ is no longer put to shame, no longer does his
face grow pale. (Isa 29:23) “For when he sees his children, the work of
My hands, in his midst, they shall set apart My Name, and set apart the
Set-apart One of Yaʽaqoḇ, and fear the Elohim of Yisra’ĕl.
Calling those things that “be not” into agreement with YHWH!
(Jeremiah 1:1)
The words of Yirmeyahu the son of Ḥilqiyahu, of the priests who
were in Anathoth in the land of Binyamin, (Jeremiah
1:2) to whom the word of יהוה came in the days of Yoshiyahu son
of Amon, sovereign of Yehuḏah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. (Jeremiah 1:3)
And it came in the days of Yehoyaqim, son of Yoshiyahu, sovereign of
Yehuḏah, until the end of the eleventh year of Tsiḏqiyahu, son of Yoshiyahu,
sovereign of Yehuḏah, until the exile of Yerushalayim in the fifth month. (Jeremiah 1:4)
Now the word of יהוה came to me, saying,
(Jeremiah 1:5)
“Before I formed you in the belly
I knew you, and before you came out of the womb I did set you apart – I
appointed you a prophet to nations.” (Jeremiah
1:6) And said I, “Ah, Master יהוה! See, I
do not know how to speak, for I am a youth.” (Jeremiah
1:7) And יהוה
said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ but go to all to whom I send you, and
speak whatever I command you. (Jeremiah 1:8) “Do not fear their faces, for I am with you
to deliver you,” declares יהוה. (Jeremiah 1:9) Then יהוה put forth His hand and touched my mouth,
and יהוה
said to me, “See, I have put my words in your mouth. (Jeremiah
1:10) “See, I have this day set
you over the nations and over the reigns, to root out and to pull down, to
destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant.” (Jeremiah
1:11) And the word of יהוה came to
me, saying, “What do you see, Yirmeyahu?” And I said, “I see a branch of an
almond tree.” (Jeremiah 1:12) And יהוה said to me, “You have seen well, for I am
watching over my word to do it.” (Jeremiah 1:13) And the word of יהוה came to me a second time, saying, “What do
you see?” And I said, “I see a boiling pot, and it is facing away from the
north.” (Jeremiah 1:14) And יהוה said to me, “Out of the north evil is set
loose on all the inhabitants of the land. (Jeremiah
1:15) “For look, I am calling all
the clans of the reigns of the north,” declares יהוה. “And they shall come and each one set his
throne at the entrance of the gates of Yerushalayim, against all its walls all
around, and against all the cities of Yehuḏah. (Jeremiah
1:16) “And I shall pronounce my
judgments against them concerning all their evil, because they have forsaken me,
burned incense to other mighty ones, and bowed themselves to the works of their
own hands. (Jeremiah 1:17) “Now, gird up your loins and arise, and speak
to them all that I command you. Do not break down before their faces, lest I
break you before them. (Jeremiah 1:18) “For look, I have made you this day a walled
city and an iron column, and bronze walls against all the land, against the
sovereigns of Yehuḏah, against her heads, against her priests, and against the
people of the land. (Jeremiah 1:19) “And they shall fight against you, but not
prevail against you. I am with you,” declares יהוה, “to deliver you.” (Jeremiah 2:1)
And the word of יהוה came to me,
saying, (Jeremiah 2:2) “Go, and you shall cry in the hearing of
Yerushalayim, saying, ‘Thus said יהוה, “I remember you, the kindness of your
youth, the love of your bride hood, when you went after Me in the wilderness,
in a land that was not sown. (Jeremiah 2:3) “Yisra’ĕl was set-apart to יהוה, the first-fruits
of His increase. All who ate of it became guilty – evil came upon them,”
declares יהוה.’

Yep there will be
wicked Pharaohs rise up who do not know our heritage…we may become destroyed as
an Obamanation- except those who will speak agreement with YHWH’s plan and
words
(Act 7:17) “But as the time of the promise
drew near which Elohim had sworn to Aḇraham, the people increased
and multiplied in Mitsrayim (Act 7:18) until
another sovereign arose who did not know Yosĕph. (Act
7:19) “Having dealt treacherously
with our race, this one mistreated our fathers, making them expose their
babies, so that they should not live. (Act 7:20) “At that time Mosheh was born, and he was
well-pleasing to Elohim. And he was reared three months in the house of his
father. (Act 7:21) “But when he was exposed, the daughter of
Pharaoh took him up and reared him as her own son. (Act
7:22) “And Mosheh was instructed
in all the wisdom of the Mitsrites, and was mighty in words and works. (Act 7:23)
“And when he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his
brothers, the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Act 7:24) “And seeing one of them being wronged, he
defended and revenged him who was oppressed, smiting the Mitsrite. (Act 7:25)
“And he thought that his brothers would have understood that Elohim
would give deliverance to them by his hand, but they did not understand. (Act 7:26)
“And the next day he appeared to two of them as they were fighting, and
urged them to peace, saying, ‘Men, you are brothers, why do you wrong one
another?’ (Act 7:27) “But he who was wronging his neighbor pushed
him away, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge over us? (Act 7:28) ‘Do
you wish to kill me as you killed the Mitsrite yesterday?’ (Act 7:29)
“And at this saying, Mosheh fled and became a sojourner in the land of
Miḏyan, where he fathered two sons.

Continued explanation of 2012-13 Torah Cycle
restart at beginning of months… It
is about YHWH restoring all things which sometimes means we are walking alone.
I start over annually when YHWH’s year starts over; this is not to say that I
am correct and others are wrong, I just happen to believe we will never
challenge our older brother Judah by following his traditions. I expect Judah
will be moved by our obedience to His Torah (Words of Scripture) and seeing
YHWH’s signs and wonders following our obedience- Does the statement above mean we are not to
grab the tzitzit of Yehuda and take hold and learn from them? Of course not, we absolutely
should learn of them and from them- just not ingest and keep that which is
traditions that go against His words! Especially since we are the ten (Ten scattered northern
tribes scattered for Easter and sun god day worship which parallels closely as
a pig slop eating prodigal brother)
Let’s look; (Zechariah 8:22) ‘And many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek יהוה of hosts in Yerushalayim, and to pray before יהוה.’ (Zechariah 8:23)
“Thus said יהוה of hosts, ‘In those days (Now? YES and in the future also!) Ten men (10 scattered
northern tribes called Ephraim and Israel) from all languages of the
nations take hold, yea, they
shall take hold of the edge of the garment of a man, a Yehuḏite1,
saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that Elohim is with you.” ’ ” Footnote: 1John 4:22.
