Shabbat
Shalom Loved One!
www.shabbatshalomlovedone.blogspot.com Torah Studies www.seedtime2harvest.com w/video audio to build our trust in Messiah! In
my effort to summarize our needs and tactics for making ourselves ready to meet
our King
Hear my new 3 part radio teaching
audio streaming continually at http://www.csbnradio.com/reviveamerica/ with
observations that will help us make ourselves ready. YHWH
is restoring all things; that includes us who were once DRY BONES! All who KNOW (Not know about) HIM and call on Him
will be delivered- HalleluYAH! “News You May Not
Have Heard” is found at http://thetorahtruths.wordpress.com
Why are we on a
different schedule of the Torah Cycle than the mainstream and the Orthodox? For
me it is about restoration of all things- explanation continued at end of this
week’s study!
Today I want to encourage you Loved
One- no matter what evil the enemy has up His sleeve; if we are willing and
obedient- giving thanks in all things, our Master and King will use us mightily
to produce fruit that remains- even beyond us! Psalm 119:89 LAMED. Forever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.
No one is arguing with YHWH in Heaven,
the thing we must enforce His His word by speaking agreement with His promises
in the earth; where hasatan is ruling the masses. We must
focus our attention on Him and His promises- not on the facts we may be
experiencing. He has destroyed the works of hell and therefore we can overcome
the plans of hell, the giants and overwhelming obstacles and still walk in
victory. This is what He came for; to destroy the
works of hell and gather the LOST SHEEP (You and I)
of Israel! Obviously, to gather the Lost
Sheep (Northern 10 tribes of Israel- Ephraim who was scattered all over the
earth for paganism such as Easter goddess worship, winter solstice sun worship-
Christmas, etc.) He would have to destroy the works of hell and the devils
right to rule us and give us opportunity and power to REPENT and become the
manifest sons and daughters of YHWH! Note below the seed is the WORD who was
made flesh and dwelled (Tabernacled) with us- Yahshua Messiah! If you want to
know about the pagan roots we must come apart from; I recommend you order “FOSSILIZED
CUSTOMS” from Amazon.com as a resource.
(1Jn 3:4) Everyone doing sin also does lawlessness, and sin
is lawlessness (Torahlessness)
(1Jn 3:5) and you know that He was manifested
to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin. (1Jn
3:6) Everyone staying in Him does
not sin. Everyone sinning has neither seen Him nor
known Him.1 Footnote: 1See
2:4 & 3 John v. 11. (1Jn 3:7) Little children, let no one lead you astray. The one doing righteousness is righteous, even as He is
righteous.1 Footnote: 1See
2:29. (1Jn 3:8) The one doing sin is of the devil, because
the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Elohim was manifested: to destroy the works of the devil.1 Footnote: 1See
Titus 2:14. (1Jn 3:9) Everyone having been born of Elohim does not
sin, because His
seed stays in him, and he is powerless to sin, because he has
been born of Elohim. (1Jn 3:10) In this the children of Elohim and the
children of the devil are manifest: Everyone not doing
righteousness is not of Elohim,1 neither the one not loving
his brother. Footnote: 1See 3 John v. 11. (1Jn 3:11) This
is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love one
another, (1Jn 3:12) not as Qayin who was of the
wicked one and killed his brother. And why did he kill him? Because his works
were wicked but those of his brother were righteous. (1Jn
3:13) Do not marvel, my brothers, if the world
hates you.1 Footnote: 1See John 15:18-19, John 17:14.
To explain further the reality concerning our authority over the
devil’s works in our lives; many years ago Yahshua told me, “I destroyed the
works of hell, he has NO power of his own!” Then
I asked Him, “If he has no power how then is he doing so much evil against us
as believers?” Then Yahshua spoke again, “he has no
power of his own but to show you the storm and the overwhelming
circumstances/obstacles to your provision from me. When you agree with your
words with the storm and circumstances (like Kĕpha (Peter) did when the storm came as I had
commanded him to walk on the water and come to me- and he put his eyes on the
great storm and off of me and sank) hasatan steals your power- you agree with
hell and I stand down, leaving you with the results of the one you have agreed
with!” Yahshua continued, (Pro 18:21) Death and life are
in the power of the tongue, and those loving it eat its fruit.” We MUST
speak Scripture and agreement with our King, or we are not following our King
Yahshua Messiah!
Our tongue will direct our lives; IF we
remain stubborn and not allow Him to control us- it will lead us to destruction! If we submit we gain His SHALOM as He directs us! Hallelu-YAH!
He IS the Prince of Shalom! This is evident in the 2 spies GOOD REPORT (Yah’s
word) VS the 10 spies Evil factual report in today’s Torah portion! Yes-
especially for us today there are giants in the land but we will believe and SPEAK AGREEMENT WITH OUR KING!
(Jas 3:2) For we all stumble in many matters. If
anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect (mature) man, able also to bridle the entire body. (Jas 3:3)
Look, we put bits in the mouths of horses, for them to obey us, and we
turn their body. (Jas 3:4) Look at the ships too: although they are so
big and are driven by strong winds, they are turned by a very small rudder
wherever the pilot intends. (Jas 3:5) So too the tongue is a little member, yet
boasts greatly. See how a little fire kindles a great forest! (Jas 3:6) And
the tongue is a fire, the world of unrighteousness. Among our members the
tongue is set, the one defiling the entire body, and setting on fire the wheel
of life, and it is set on fire by Gehenna (Hell).
That means you and I can draw near to Him who made Heaven
and Earth and OVERCOME all the power of the enemy! (Luke 10:18) And
He said to them, “I saw Satan falling out of the heaven as lightning. (Luke 10:19) “See, I give you
the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, (All demonic authority) and over all the
power of the enemy, and none at all shall hurt you. (Luke 10:20) “But do not rejoice
in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your
names have been written in the heavens.” Hallelu-YAH! No need to fear man and the demonic hordes that do evil
against us- he can only kill the body which is going back to dirt anyway- FEAR
HIM (Awe and respect) who can cast to hell’s flames where the worm dies not! Luke_12:5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear:
Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say
unto you, Fear him. Mat_10:28
and fear not them which kill the body, but are not able
to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Hey this is a no brainer- let’s draw near to our loving King, director,
provider and protector!
Okay- this
is what happens when we submit and obey willingly; Submitting means submitting to the WORD and we change for
He changes NOT! Look- He really wants to help us and
delivers us from all the works of hell!
(John 14:12) “Truly, truly, I say
to you, he who believes in me, the works that I do he shall do also. And
greater works than these he shall do, because I go to My Father. (John 14:13) “Whatever you ask in
My Name, that I shall do, in order that the Father might be esteemed in the Son.
(John 14:14)
“If you ask whatever in My Name, I shall do it. (John 14:15) “If you love me,
you shall guard my commands.1
Footnote: 1See Ex. 20:6, vv. 21&23, 1
John 5:2-3, 2 John v. 6. (John 14:16) “And I shall ask the
Father, and He shall give you another Helper, to stay with you forever –
(John 14:17) the Spirit
of the Truth, whom the world is unable to receive, because it does not see Him
or know Him. But you know Him, for He stays with you and shall be in you.
(John 14:18)
“I shall not leave you orphans – I am coming to
you. (John 14:19) “Yet a little while,
and the world no longer sees me, but you shall see me, because I live, and you
shall live. (John 14:20) “In that day you
shall know that I am in My Father and you in me, and I in you. (John 14:21) “He who
possesses my commands and guards them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves
me shall be loved by My Father, and I shall love him and manifest myself to him.”
(Isa 1:18)
“Come now, and let us reason together,” says יהוה. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as
snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool. (Isa
1:19) “If you submit and obey (willing and obedient), you shall eat
the good of the land; (Isa 1:20) but
if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured by the sword,” the mouth of יהוה has
spoken.
We become LESS and He becomes MORE of us! As we receive the engrafted Word
of Life by submitting (receiving) -
we become DOERS of the Word and not hearers only! We change and become more
like our King and Savior. Then we are not so easily deceived. (James 4:7) So
then subject 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! This shows our maturity as we yield our
tongues to the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) and He directs us. As He directs us
more and more we can become more assured of our destiny and purpose and FEAR
NOT!
Our loving
Creator who has ALL power laughs at the wicked men raging against Him- He holds
them in derision- FEAR NOT!
Here
are this Week’s Torah Scriptures: Shelah L’cha “Send for Yourself”
Numbers 13:1-15:41; Joshua
2:1-24; Hebrews 13:1-19 (Increased)
Spying
out the Land- Who will you and I agree with- the FACTS or YHWH’S WORD?
(Numbers 13:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Numbers 13:2) “Send men
to spy out the land of Kenaʽan, which I am giving to the children of Yisra’ĕl.
Send one man from each tribe of their fathers, everyone a leader among them.”
(Numbers 13:3)
And by the command of יהוה Mosheh sent them from the Wilderness of Paran, all of them men
who were heads of the children of Yisra’ĕl.
(Numbers 13:4) And these were their names. From the tribe of
Re’uḇĕn: Shammua, son of Zakkur. (Numbers 13:5) From the tribe of Shimʽon: Shaphat, son of
Ḥori. (Numbers 13:6) From the tribe of Yehuḏah: Kalĕḇ, son of
Yephunneh. (Numbers 13:7) From the tribe of Yissasḵar: Yiḡ’al, son of
Yosĕph. (Numbers 13:8) From the tribe of Ephrayim: Hoshĕa, son of
Nun. (Numbers 13:9) From the tribe of Binyamin: Palti, son of
Raphu. (Numbers 13:10) From the tribe of Zeḇulun: Gaddi’ĕl, son of
Soḏi. (Numbers 13:11) from the tribe of
Yosĕph, from the tribe of Menashsheh: Gaddi, son of Susi. (Numbers 13:12)
From the tribe of Dan: Ammi’ĕl, son of Gemalli. (Numbers
13:13) From the tribe of Ashĕr:
Shĕthur, son of Miḵa’ĕl. (Numbers 13:14) From the tribe of Naphtali: Naḥbi, son of
Wophsi. (Numbers 13:15) From the tribe of Gaḏ: Geu’ĕl, son of Maḵi.
(Numbers 13:16) these are the names of the men
whom Mosheh sent to spy out the land. And Mosheh called Hoshĕa the son of Nun,
Yehoshua. (Numbers 13:17) And Mosheh sent them to spy out the land of
Kenaʽan, and said to them, “Go up here into the South, and go up to the
mountains, (Numbers 13:18) and see what the land is like, and the people
who dwell in it, whether strong or weak, whether few or many, (Numbers 13:19)
and whether the land they dwell in is good or evil, whether the cities
they inhabit are in camps or strongholds, (Numbers
13:20) and whether the land is
rich or poor, and whether there are forests there or not. And you shall be
strong, and bring some of the fruit of the land.” Now the time was the season
of the first-fruits of grapes. (Numbers 13:21) So they went up and spied out the land from
the Wilderness of Tsin as far as Reḥoḇ, near the entrance of Ḥamath. (Numbers 13:22)
And they went up through the South and came to Ḥeḇron. And Aḥiman,
Shĕshai, and Talmai, the descendants of Anaq, were there. Now Ḥeḇron had been
built seven years before Tsoʽan in Mitsrayim. (Numbers
13:23) And they came to the wadi
Eshkol, and cut down from there a branch with one cluster of grapes. And they
bore it between two of them on a pole, also of the pomegranates and of the
figs. (Numbers 13:24) That place was called the wadi Eshkol,
because of the cluster which the men of Yisra’ĕl cut down from there. (Numbers 13:25)
And they returned from spying out the land after forty days. (Numbers 13:26)
And they went and came to Mosheh and Aharon and all the congregation of
the children of Yisra’ĕl in the Wilderness of Paran, at Qaḏĕsh. And they
brought back word to them and to the entire congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land. (Numbers 13:27)
And they reported to him, and said, “We went
to the land where you sent us. And truly, it flows with milk and honey, and
this is its fruit. (Numbers 13:28) “But the people who dwell in the land are
strong, and the cities are walled, very great. And we saw the descendants of
Anaq there too. (Numbers 13:29) “The Amalĕqites dwell in the land of the
South, while the Ḥittites and the Yeḇusites and the Amorites dwell in the
mountains. And the Kenaʽanites dwell by the sea and along the banks of the
Yardĕn.” (Numbers 13:30) And Kalĕḇ silenced the people before Mosheh,
and said, “Let
us go up at once and take possession, for we are certainly able to overcome
it.” (Numbers
13:31) But the men who had gone up with him said, (THIS IS OUR
LESSON TODAY- AGREEING IN WORDS AND ACTIONS WITH OUR KING OR AGREEING WITH THE
ENEMY OF OUR SOULS AND THE POWER OF THE ENEMY!) “We are not able to go up against the people, for
they are stronger than we.” (Numbers 13:32) And they gave the children of Yisra’ĕl an
evil report of the land which they had spied out, saying, “The land through
which we have gone as spies is a land eating up its inhabitants, and all the
people whom we saw in it are men of great size. (Numbers
13:33) “And we saw there the
Nephilim, sons of Anaq, of the Nephilim.
(Comment- fallen beings that impregnated
women in Genesis 6:4; the very reason of the flood and YHWH’s judgment of
mankind- corrupted DNA) And we were like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and
so we were in their eyes.”
Agreeing with the enemy’s report brings weeping and death! Watch our words
and grumble NOT!
(Numbers 14:1) Then the
entire congregation lifted up their voices and cried, and the people wept that
night. (Numbers 14:2) And all the children of Yisra’ĕl grumbled
against Mosheh and against Aharon, and the entire congregation said to them,
“If only we had died in the land of Mitsrayim! Or if only we had died in this
wilderness! (Numbers 14:3) “And why is יהוה bringing us to this land to fall by
the sword, that our wives and children should become a prey? Would it not be
better for us to turn back to Mitsrayim?” (Numbers
14:4) And they said to each
other, “Let us appoint a leader, and let us turn back to Mitsrayim.” (Numbers 14:5)
Then Mosheh and Aharon fell on their faces before all the assembly of
the congregation of the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Numbers
14:6) And Yehoshua son of Nun,
and Kalĕḇ son of Yephunneh, who were among those who had spied out the land,
tore their garments, (Numbers 14:7) and they spoke to all the congregation of the
children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, “The land we passed through to spy out is an
exceedingly good land. (Numbers 14:8) “If יהוה has delighted in us, then He shall bring
us into this land and give it to us, ‘a land which is flowing with milk and
honey.’ (Numbers 14:9) “Only, do not rebel against יהוה, nor fear the
people of the land, for they are our bread. Their defense has turned away from
them, and יהוה
is with us. Do not fear them.” (Numbers 14:10) But the entire congregation said to stone
them with stones. Then the esteem of יהוה appeared in the Tent of Meeting before all
the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Numbers 14:11) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “How long shall I be
scorned by these people? And how long shall I not be trusted by them, with all
the signs which I have done in their midst? (Numbers
14:12) “Let Me smite them with
the pestilence and disinherit them, and make of you a nation greater and
mightier than they.” (Numbers 14:13) And Mosheh said to יהוה, “Then the Mitsrites shall hear it, for by
Your power You brought these people up from their midst, (Numbers 14:14)
and they shall say to the inhabitants of this land they have heard that
You, יהוה,
are in the midst of these people, that You, יהוה, are seen eye to eye and that Your cloud
stands above them, and You go before them in a column of cloud by day and in a
column of fire by night. (Numbers 14:15) “Now if You shall kill these people as one man,
then the nations which have heard of Your report shall speak, saying, (Numbers 14:16)
‘Because יהוה was not able to bring this people to the land which He swore to
give them, therefore He killed them in the wilderness.’ (Numbers 14:17) “And now, I
pray, let the power of יהוה be great, as you have spoken, saying, (Numbers
14:18) ‘יהוה is patient and of great kindness,
forgiving crookedness and transgression, but by no means leaving unpunished1; visiting the crookedness of
the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation.’ Footnote: 1This is confirmed in Ex. 34:7 and in
Jer. 30:11. (Numbers 14:19) “Please forgive the crookedness of this
people, according to the greatness of your kindness, as You have forgiven this
people, from Mitsrayim even until now.” (Numbers
14:20) And יהוה said, “I shall forgive, according to your
word, (Numbers 14:21) but truly, as I live and all the earth is
filled with the esteem of יהוה, (Numbers 14:22) for none of these men who have seen My esteem
and the signs which I did in Mitsrayim and in the wilderness, and have tried Me
now these ten times, and have disobeyed My voice, (Numbers
14:23) shall see the land of
which I swore to their fathers, nor any of those who scorned Me see it. (Numbers 14:24)
“But My servant Kalĕḇ, because he has a different spirit in him and has
followed me completely, I shall bring into the land where he went, and his seed
shall inherit it. (Numbers 14:25) “Since the Amalĕqites and the Kenaʽanites are
dwelling in the valley, turn back tomorrow and set out into the wilderness by
the Way of the Sea of Reeds.” (Red Sea) (Numbers 14:26)
And יהוה
spoke to Mosheh, and to Aharon, saying, (Numbers
14:27) “How long shall this evil congregation
have this grumbling against me? I have heard the grumblings which the children
of Yisra’ĕl are grumbling against Me. (Numbers
14:28) “Say to them, ‘As I live,’ declares יהוה, ‘as you have spoken in My hearing, so I
do to you: (Numbers 14:29) ‘The carcasses of you who have grumbled
against Me are going to fall in this wilderness, all of you who were
registered, according to your entire number, from twenty years old and above. (Numbers 14:30)
‘None of you except Kalĕḇ son of Yephunneh, and Yehoshua son of Nun, shall
enter the land which I swore I would make you dwell in. (Numbers 14:31) ‘But your little ones, whom you said would become
a prey, I shall bring in, and they shall know the land which you have rejected.
(Numbers 14:32)
‘But as for you, your carcasses are going to fall in this wilderness. (Numbers 14:33)
‘And your sons shall be wanderers in the wilderness forty years, and
shall bear your whorings, until your carcasses are consumed in the wilderness. (Numbers 14:34)
‘According to the number of the days in which you spied out the land,
forty days – a day for a year, a day for a year – you are to bear your
crookednesses forty years, and you shall know My breaking off. (Numbers 14:35)
‘I am יהוה, I have spoken, I shall do this to all this evil congregation
who are meeting against Me: In this wilderness they are consumed, and there
they die.’ ” (Numbers 14:36) And the men whom Mosheh sent to spy out the
land, who returned and made all the congregation grumble against him by
bringing an evil report of the land, (Numbers 14:37) even those men who brought the evil report
about the land, died by the plague before יהוה. (Numbers 14:38) Of those men who went to spy out the land,
only Yehoshua son of Nun, and Kalĕḇ son of Yephunneh remained alive. (Numbers 14:39)
And when Mosheh spoke these words to all the children of Yisra’ĕl, the
people mourned greatly. (Numbers 14:40) And they rose up early in the morning and
went up to the top of the mountain, saying, “See, we have indeed sinned, but we
shall go up to the place which יהוה had spoken of!” (Numbers 14:41) But Mosheh said, “Why do you now transgress
the command of יהוה, since it does not prosper? (Numbers
14:42) “Do not go up, lest you be
smitten by your enemies, for יהוה is not in your midst. (Numbers 14:43) “Because the Amalĕqites and the Kenaʽanites
are there before you, and you shall fall by the sword. Because you have turned
away from יהוה,
יהוה is
not with you.” (Numbers 14:44) But they presumed to go up to the
mountaintop, but neither the ark of the covenant of יהוה nor Mosheh left the camp. (Numbers 14:45)
So the Amalĕqites and the Kenaʽanites who dwelt in that mountain came
down and smote them, and beat them down, even to Ḥormah.
A sweet fragrance to YHWH is our offering- especially THANKS AND PRAISE!
Giving our tithe-
(Numbers 15:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Numbers 15:2)
“Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘When you have come
into the land of your dwellings, which I am giving you, (Numbers 15:3) and you make
an offering by fire to יהוה, a burnt offering or a slaughtering, to accomplish a vow or as
a voluntary offering or in your appointed times, to make a sweet fragrance to יהוה, from the herd or the flock, (Numbers 15:4)
then he who brings near his offering to יהוה shall bring near a grain offering of
one-tenth of an ĕphah of fine flour mixed with one-fourth of a hin of
oil, (Numbers 15:5) and one-fourth of a hin of wine as a drink
offering you prepare with the burnt offering or the slaughtering, for each
lamb. (Numbers 15:6) ‘Or for a ram you prepare as a grain offering
two-tenths of an ĕphah of fine flour mixed with one-third of a hin of
oil, (Numbers 15:7) and as a drink offering you bring one-third
of a hin of wine as a sweet fragrance to יהוה. (Numbers 15:8) ‘And when you prepare a young bull as a burnt
offering, or as a slaughtering to accomplish a vow, or as a peace offering to יהוה, (Numbers 15:9) then shall be brought with the young
bull a grain offering of three-tenths of an ĕphah of fine flour mixed with
half a hin of oil, (Numbers 15:10) and bring as
the drink offering half a hin of wine as an offering made by fire, a sweet
fragrance to יהוה. (Numbers 15:11) ‘This is what is done for each young bull,
for each ram, or for each lamb or young goat. (Numbers
15:12) ‘According to the number
that you prepare, so you do for each one according to their number. (Numbers 15:13)
‘Let all who are native do so with them, in bringing near an offering
made by fire, a sweet fragrance to יהוה. (Numbers 15:14) ‘And when a stranger sojourns with you, or
whoever is among you throughout your generations, and would make an offering
made by fire, a sweet fragrance to יהוה, as you do, so he does. (Numbers 15:15)
‘One law is for you of the assembly and for the stranger who sojourns
with you – a law forever throughout your generations. As you are, so is the
stranger before יהוה. (Numbers 15:16) ‘One Torah and one right-ruling is for you
and for the stranger who sojourns with you.’ ” (Numbers
15:17) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Numbers 15:18)
“Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘When you come into
the land to which I bring you, (Numbers 15:19) then it shall be, when you eat of the bread
of the land, that you present a contribution to יהוה. (Numbers 15:20) ‘Present a cake of the first of your dough as
a contribution – as a contribution of the threshing-floor you present it. (Numbers 15:21)
‘Of
the first of your dough you are to give to יהוה
a contribution throughout your generations. (Numbers
15:22) ‘And when you sin by
mistake, and do not do all these commands which יהוה has spoken to Mosheh, (Numbers 15:23)
all that יהוה has commanded you by the hand of Mosheh, from the day יהוה gave
command and onward throughout your generations, (Numbers
15:24) then it shall be, if it is
done by mistake, without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the
congregation shall prepare one young bull as a burnt offering, as a sweet
fragrance to יהוה, with its grain offering and its drink offering, according to
the right-ruling, and one male goat as a sin offering. (Numbers
15:25) ‘Then the priest shall
make atonement for all the congregation of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and it
shall be forgiven them, for it was by mistake. And they shall bring their
offering, an offering made by fire to יהוה, and their sin offering before יהוה, for
their mistake. (Numbers 15:26) ‘And it shall be forgiven all the
congregation of the children of Yisra’ĕl and the stranger who sojourns in their
midst, because all the people did it by mistake. (Numbers
15:27) ‘And if a being sins by
mistake, then he shall bring a female goat a year old as a sin offering. (Numbers 15:28)
‘And the priest shall make atonement for the being who strays by
mistake, when he sins by mistake before יהוה, to make atonement for him, and it shall
be forgiven him. (Numbers 15:29) ‘For him who does whatever by mistake
there is one Torah, both for him who is native among the children of Yisra’ĕl
and for the stranger who sojourns in their midst. (Numbers
15:30) ‘But the being who does whatever
defiantly, whether he is native or a stranger, he reviles יהוה, and that being
shall be cut off from among his people. (Numbers
15:31) ‘Because he has despised
the word of יהוה, and has broken His command, that being shall certainly be cut
off, his crookedness is upon him.’ (Numbers 15:32) And while the children of Yisra’ĕl were in
the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day. (Numbers 15:33)
And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Mosheh and to
Aharon, and to the entire congregation. (Numbers
15:34) And they put him in under
guard, because it had not been declared what should be done to him. (Numbers 15:35)
And יהוה
said to Mosheh, “The man shall certainly be put to death, all the congregation
stoning him with stones outside the camp.” (Numbers
15:36) And the entire
congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him with stones, as יהוה commanded
Mosheh, and he died.
Wearing Tzitzit says you are keeping His commands- therefore all the
promises (including healing) given by obedience are yours- this is why the
woman with the issue of blood grabbed Yahshua’s Tzitzit!
(Numbers 15:37) And יהוה spoke to
Mosheh, saying, (Numbers 15:38) “Speak to the
children of Yisra’ĕl, and you shall say to them to make tzitziyot1 on the corners of their garments throughout
their generations, and to put a blue cord in the tzitzit1
of the corners. Footnote: 1See Explanatory
notes - “Tzitzit” - plural Tzitziyot. (Numbers
15:39) “And it shall be to you
for a tzitzit, and you shall see it, and shall remember all the commands of יהוה and shall
do them, and not search after your own heart and your own eyes after which you
went whoring, (Numbers 15:40) so that you remember, and shall do all My
commands, and be set-apart unto your Elohim. (Numbers
15:41) “I am יהוה your Elohim, who
brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, to be your Elohim. I am יהוה your
Elohim.”
Note those of us who have a GOOD REPORT (One that agrees with YHWH’S
WORDS!) enter His PROMISES as overcomers!
(Joshua 2:1) And Yehoshua son of Nun secretly sent out two
men from Shittim to spy, saying, “Go, see the land, and Yeriḥo.”
And they went, and came to the house of a woman, a whore, and her name was
Raḥaḇ, and they lay down there. (Joshua 2:2) But it was reported to the sovereign of
Yeriḥo, saying, “See, men from the children of Yisra’ĕl have come here tonight
to search out the land.” (Joshua 2:3) And the sovereign of Yeriḥo sent to Raḥaḇ,
saying, “Bring out the men who have come to you, who have entered your house,
for they have come to search out all the land.” (Joshua
2:4) But the woman had taken the
two men and hid them. So she said, “The men came to me, but I did not know
where they were from. (Joshua 2:5) “Then it came to be as the gate was being
shut, when it was dark that the men went out. I do not know where the men went.
Pursue them quickly, so that you overtake them.” (Joshua
2:6) But she had brought them up
to the roof and hidden them with the stalks of flax, which she had laid out on
the roof. (Joshua 2:7) And the men pursued them by the way to the
Yardĕn, to the fords. And they shut the gate afterwards as soon as the pursuers
had gone out. (Joshua 2:8) And before they lay down, she came up to them
on the roof, (Joshua 2:9) and she said to the men, “I know that יהוה has given you the land, and that
the fear of you has fallen on us, and that all the inhabitants of the land melt
away because of you. (Joshua 2:10) “For we have heard how יהוה dried up the water of the Sea of Reeds for
you when you came out of Mitsrayim, and what you did to the two sovereigns of
the Amorites who were beyond the Yardĕn, Siḥon and Oḡ, whom you put under the
ban. (Joshua 2:11) “And when we heard, our hearts melted, and
there was no spirit left in anyone because of you, for יהוה your Elohim, He is Elohim in the heavens
above and on earth beneath. (Joshua 2:12) “And now, please swear to me by יהוה, since I
have shown you kindness, that you also show kindness to my father’s house, and
shall give me a true token, (Joshua 2:13) and shall spare my father, and my mother, and
my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and shall deliver our
lives from death.” (Joshua 2:14) And the men said to her, “Our lives for
yours, if you do not expose this matter of ours, then it shall be, when יהוה has given
us the land, that we shall treat you in kindness and truth.” (Joshua 2:15)
So she let them down by a rope through the window, for her house was on
the city wall and she dwelt on the wall. (Joshua 2:16) And she said to them, “Go to the mountain,
lest the pursuers come upon you. And you shall hide there three days, until the
pursuers have returned, and afterwards go on your way.” (Joshua 2:17) And the men
said to her, “We are released from this oath of yours which you have made us
swear, (Joshua 2:18) unless, when we come into
the land, you bind this line of scarlet cord in the window through which you
let us down, and unless you bring your father, and your mother, and your
brothers, and all your father’s household to your own home. (Joshua 2:19)
“And it shall be that anyone who goes outside the doors of your house
into the street, his blood is on his own head, and we are innocent. And anyone
who is with you in the house, his blood is on our head if a hand is laid on
him. (Joshua 2:20) “And if you expose this matter of ours, then
we shall be released from your oath which you made us swear.” (Joshua 2:21)
And she said, “Let it be according to your words.” And she sent them
away, and they went. And she bound the scarlet cord in the window. (Joshua 2:22)
So they left and came to the mountain, and stayed there three days until
the pursuers returned. And the pursuers sought them in all the way, but did not
find them. (Joshua 2:23) Then the two men returned and came down from
the mountain, and passed over. And they came to Yehoshua son of Nun, and
related to him all that had befallen them. (Joshua
2:24) And
they said to Yehoshua, “Truly יהוה has given all the land into our hands, and also, all the
inhabitants of the land have melted away because of us.”
Yahshua- the same yesterday and forever! Note also: (Mal 3:6) “For I am יהוה, I
shall not change1, and you, O sons of Yaʽaqoḇ, shall not come to an
end. Footnote:
1Jas. 1:17.
(Hebrews 13:1) Let the brotherly love continue. (Hebrews 13:2)
Do not forget to receive strangers, for by so doing some have
unwittingly entertained messengers. (Hebrews 13:3) Remember the prisoners as if chained with
them, and those being mistreated, since you yourselves also are in the body. (Hebrews 13:4)
Let marriage be respected by all, and the bed be undefiled. But Elohim
shall judge those who whore, and adulterers. (Hebrews
13:5) Let your way of life
be without the love of money, and be satisfied with what you have. For He
Himself has said, “I shall never leave you nor forsake you,” (Hebrews 13:6) so that we boldly say, “יהוה is my helper, I shall not fear what
man shall do to me.” (Hebrews 13:7) Remember those leading you, who spoke the
Word of Elohim to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate
their belief. (Hebrews 13:8) יהושע the Messiah is the same yesterday, and
today, and forever. (Hebrews 13:9) Do not be borne
about by various and strange teachings.1 It is good for the
heart to be established by favor, not with foods which have not profited those
who have been occupied with them. Footnote: 1Eph.
4:14. (Hebrews 13:10) We have an altar from which those serving the
Tent have no authority to eat. (Hebrews 13:11) For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is
brought into the Set-apart Place by the high priest for sin, are burned outside
the camp. (Hebrews 13:12) And so יהושע also suffered outside the gate, to set
apart the people with His own blood. (Hebrews 13:13) Let us, then, go to Him outside the camp,
bearing His reproach. (Hebrews 13:14) We have no lasting city here, but we seek the
one coming. (Hebrews 13:15) Through Him then, let us continually offer up
a slaughter
offering of praise to Elohim, that is, the fruit of our lips,1 giving thanks to His
Name. Footnote: 1Or “bulls of our lips” -
See Hosh. 14:2. (Hebrews 13:16) and do
not forget to do well and to share, for with such slaughter offerings
Elohim is well pleased. (Hebrews 13:17) Obey those leading you, and be subject to
them, for they watch for your lives, as having to give account. Let them do
so with joy and not groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you. (Hebrews 13:18)
Pray for us, for we trust that we have a good conscience, desiring to
behave well in every way. (Hebrews 13:19) But I particularly encourage you to do this,
that I might be restored to you the sooner.
My prayer
for you Loved One and ALL your loved ones- is that we allow YHWH to direct our
tongue which will allow Him to direct our lives with a GOOD REPORT! BUT IF we remain stubborn and not allow
Him to control us- it will lead us to destruction! (Walk by the Spirit and LIVE or walk by the
flesh or what we see- feel and we will die) If we submit we gain His SHALOM as
He directs us! Hallelu-YAH! He IS the Prince of Shalom! This is evident in the
2 spies GOOD REPORT (Yah’s word) VS the 10 spies Evil factual report in
today’s Torah portion! Yes- especially for us today there are giants in the
land but we will believe and SPEAK AGREEMENT WITH
OUR KING! My further request at the Throne room is that you and I study
and show ourselves approved rightly dividing the TORAH that we may speak
agreement with our King- even memorizing Psalm 91 and personalizing it! Please consider carefully what words you speak
and ask the Holy Spirit to direct your tongue and gently correct and change
what must be changed before we stand in His presence!
May His
SHALOM encompass you loved one! May you be filled with His Shalom and FEAR NOT!
I also add this prayer for you: (2Co 10:3) for
though we walk in the flesh, we do not fight according to the flesh. (2Co 10:4) For
the weapons we fight with are not fleshly but
mighty in Elohim for overthrowing strongholds, (2Co
10:5) overthrowing reasoning’s and every high matter (idea) that exalts
itself against the knowledge of Elohim, taking captive every thought to make it obedient to the
Messiah.
Understand the seasons we are in loved one;
(Mar 13:8)
“For nation (ethnos-race) shall rise against nation (ethnos-race), and reign
against reign. And there shall be earthquakes in various places, and there
shall be scarcities of food, and disturbances. These are the beginnings of
birth-pains. (Mar 13:9) “But take heed to yourselves, for they shall
deliver you up to councils and to congregations. You shall be beaten, and you
shall be brought before rulers and sovereigns for my sake, for a witness to
them. (Mar 13:10) “And the Good News has to be proclaimed first
to all the nations. (Mar 13:11) “And when they lead you away and deliver you up, do not
worry beforehand what you are to say. But whatever is given you in that hour,
speak that, for it is not you who are speaking, but the Set-apart Spirit. Lastly
my prayer is that you recognize and understand the Seasons of Distress we are
in and have wisdom from Heaven- that you and your loved ones escape and endure
and STAND AT HIS APPEARING!
Shalom to your home Loved One,
Thurston
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.
