Shabbat
shalom Loved One! (This study

Weekly Torah Studies- Now with language translations!
Why we are on a
different schedule of the Torah Cycle than the mainstream and the Orthodox? For
me it is about restoration of all things- which sometimes means 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, YHWH forbid that goofy thinking, 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… continued
at the end of today’s study.
Today
I am reflecting on how we are commanded to walk in love. Something so many have
totally forgotten as we sharpen our “Torah Skills” or Church Skills”. Those
things tend to keep us believing we are “good to go” so to speak and we get
confirmation from others who are doing what we do. Hmm we might just be
deceived some. I am remembering my daughter Lindsay Ann as it has been just
over 3 years since her passing. Why today? Firstly because I believe the Ruach
is guiding me; I remember my remaining son and daughter saying about Lindsay
Ann: she could be taken now; because she walked in love and she was really the
only one of us ready to enter the Kingdom Considering themselves having not yet
attained the LOVE WALK. Secondly because
I believe it is an area most of us have absolutely missed it- thinking our walk
is okay… but often thinking about how OTHERS perceive us. Hmm well we should
perhaps have a reality check up. I’ll reminisce of that time of her death 3
years ago;
Many
of you friends and family called it the “LINDSAY LIFE” on her face book page.
Of course she would never take credit herself- as she walked out her salvation
in humbled- fear and trembling- trusting her redeemer for love and direction,
which having sought Him yielding- could give away the love she received!
(That’s why she could be called Princess Laughs-a-Lot) People from all facets
of life loved her- with 800 people at her funeral- she made friends- and they
all thought she was their “BEST FRIEND!” Why is that? Because she considered
their needs and what they had been through of import- and she judged them not.
She just loved them and accepted them and lived her life as a testimony of the
mercy and goodness of God. Do we do that? I am amazed that people still write
on her Facebook 3 years later…she was what I consider a “taught one” that
obeyed the renewed command;
(John 13:34) “A renewed command I
give to you, that you love one another, as I have loved you, that you also love
one another. (John 13:35) “By this shall all
know that you are my taught ones, if you have love for one another.” Loved
One, how can we live it? The walk
commanded of us- to walk as He walked. HOW CAN WE WALK THE LOVE WALK PAID FOR
BY YAHSHUA’S DEATH AND RESURRECTION? You know… the one He commands us to walk… the
one we are reckoned worthy of His Kingdom by. 1Jn 2:6 the one who says he stays in Him ought
himself also to walk, even as He walked.
I want to remind
us from last week this idea that seems to branded in me by the Ruach as a sense
of urgency; because I sincerely believe what was recently shared by a
trusted spirit filled believer who journeyed to heaven: He saw and experienced
98% of all people on earth who had passed- on a wide path headed toward hell;
he even heard their screams of disbelief as they commented—“It was really
true?” These passing toward hell would have done anything to get out of their
line- this believer also noticed a small narrow path with 2% of all who had
passed from the earth (Died) leading directly towards Yahshua; as each person
stood in front of Him; He asked one question: DID YOU LEARN TO LOVE? So our
question remains---HAVE WE LEARNED TO LOVE? First Yahweh (Obedience by choice);
and then others- hmm whether they deserve it or not? On these two hangs all the
Torah and the Prophets!
WE
WILL NOW ADDRESS HOW WE CAN LIVE THE LOVE WALK! How can we possibly bless those
that curse us and pray for those who spitefully use us. How can we forgive
others that don’t really deserve our forgiveness?
IT
IS A CHOICE WE MAKE TO OBEY OUR KING AND SHOW OUR LOVE BY DOING WHAT HE SAYS!
It is also a choice to choose to love others and we will be held accountable!
The power to walk in love is available to whosoever
will bow their knee, humble themselves and receive the engrafted word of life-
in submissive desire to obey and love Him. Available power, but rarely allowed, as most of us prefer
to rule ourselves and be in control of even our words. Please consider with me; I suspect that if we
will not yield our tongue to our King; which seems to provide the very
direction our lives go, we have not submitted to the Creator at all. These
Scriptures declare that no man can tame his tongue so we must make a determined
effort to yield to the only source of power given that can control for us in
righteousness. Remember, according to Yahshua (Jesus);
(John 14:15) “If you love me, you shall guard my commands.1 Footnote: 1 See 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.”
That’s how we
love Yahweh- the first four of the Ten Commandments come to mind. Next we are
required to love others as ourselves- hmm…that’s the last six commandments. We
will take a quick look but first let’s see Yahshua’s words- Mat_5:43 “You heard
that it was said, 1 ‘You shall love
your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ Footnote: 1Hate
your enemy was “said,” not “written.” Mat_5:44 “But I say to you, love your enemies, bless
those cursing you, do good to those hating you, and pray for those insulting
you and persecuting you, Mat_5:46 “For if you love those loving you,
what reward have you? Are the tax collectors not doing the same too?
We are promised above HELP FROM HEAVEN if we will submit and
do as He commands!
(James 3:2) For in many things we offend all. If any man
offend not in word, the same is a
perfect man, and able also to bridle the
whole body. (James 3:3) Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths,
that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body. (James 3:4)
Behold also the ships, which though they be
so great, and are driven of fierce
winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whither soever the
governor lists. (James 3:5) Even so the tongue is a little member, and
boasts great things. Behold how great a matter a little fire kindles! (James 3:6)
And the tongue is a fire, a world
of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defiles the whole
body, and set on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. (James 3:7)
For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things
in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: (James
3:8) But the tongue can no man tame; it is
an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. (James 3:9) Therewith we bless YHWH, even the Father; and
therewith we curse men, which are made after the similitude of YHWH. (James 3:10)
Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing; my brothers, these
things ought not to be.
(Act 1:1) The first account I made, O Theophilos, of
all that יהושע began both to
do and to teach, (Act 1:2) until the day when
He was taken up, after giving instructions through the Set-apart Spirit to the
emissaries whom He had chosen, (Act 1:3) to
whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many infallible
proofs, being seen by them for forty days, speaking concerning the reign of
Elohim. (Act 1:4) And meeting with them, He commanded them not
to leave Yerushalayim, but to wait for the Promise of the Father,
1 “which you have heard from me – Footnote:
1 Luke 24:49, John 14:16 & 26. (Act 1:5) because Yoḥanan truly immersed (baptized) in water, but
you shall be immersed (baptized) in the Set-apart Spirit not many days from now.”
Loved One- please consider these
next instructions of Yahshua (The Word
who was later made flesh and dwelled among us) of vast importance in your LOVE WALK! Take note below that you will have no
witness that will remain except by His provided method and His power! No
witness remaining? Yahshua (Jesus) is pretty direct about how we may receive (or reject) His power and help.
(Act 1:8) “But you
shall receive power when the Set-apart Spirit has come upon you, and you shall
be my witnesses in Yerushalayim, and in all Yehuḏah and Shomeron, and to the end of the earth.”
(Act 2:1) And when the Day of the Festival of Weeks had
come, they were all with one mind in one place. (Act 2:2) And suddenly there came a
sound from the heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the entire
house where they were sitting. (Act 2:3) And there appeared to them divided tongues,
as of fire, and settled on each one of them. (Act 2:4) And they were all filled with the Set-apart
Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them to speak.
The sages taught that the Festival of Weeks- (Shavuot-Pentecost) was also the
anniversary of Moses receiving the Torah (Instructions-Law)
at Mt Sinai. This was passed down for many generations and makes sense as it is
appropriate that His power is given to walk out in obedience His Instructions
as it is not burdensome but quite doable when it is written on our hearts. It
also makes sense because He gave us His commands and instructions and then
gives us His power to do them. Please take note that the One who mikveh’s us
(baptizes) in the Holy Spirit and Fire is Yahshua, and He lets us speak as the
Holy Spirit (Ruach Ha Kodesh) gives the
utterance- but WE MUST OPEN OUR MOUTHS AND DO THE SPEAKING- HE WILL NOT FORCE
US TO SPEAK- HE ALLOWS THE WILLING AND OBEDIENT.
(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 baptize) you in the Set-apart Spirit (Holy Spirit) and fire.
Since Yahshua (Jesus)
is the one who baptizes in the Holy Spirit and empowers the ones humble
enough to yield and seek Him to walk in His love and power, we should ask for
all of His power and help He has for us- He changes not and is no respecter of
persons, but He watches over His word to perform it. Therefore, you can expect
to receive the same power they did in the upper room or likely Solomon’s
Portico. Ask Yahshua now to baptize you- raise your hands to heaven in sweet
surrender and ask for him to baptize you in the Holy Spirit and Fire. And then
don’t speak your normal language but speak what He gives you utterance to speak-
DO NOT JUDGE WHAT HE GIVES- just open your mouth and let the rivers of
living water flow from your belly. He will do what He promised. YIELD and
speak. Get thirsty and hungry for Him!
(Jeremiah 1:12) And יהוה said to me, “You have seen well, for I am
watching over my word to do it.”
(John 7:37) In the last day, that great day of the feast, (Set Apart Day following Tabernacles or the 8th Day as it is
often referred to as the LAST GREAT DAY) Yahshua (Jesus) stood and cried, saying, if any man
thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. (John 7:38) He
that believeth on me, as the Scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow
rivers of living water. (John 7:39) (But this spoke He of the Spirit, which they
that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
DO NOT WORRY
ABOUT INTERPRETATION- as that is not always possible unless it is one of the 9
power gifts of the Holy Spirit to benefit others. This prayer language is to
build you and your faith and is not for ministering to others. (Jude 1:20) But
you, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
(1Co 14:14) For
if I pray in an unknown tongue, my
spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful. (1Co 14:15)
What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the
understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the
understanding also.
Understand that
we don’t always know what to pray for (as
we ought to) and cannot usually even pray for one hour without repeating
ourselves! The yielded tongue can pray without ceasing as the Holy Spirit knows
exactly what to pray for! YIELD your tongue and trust Him with the direction of
your life- then YOU WILL PRODUCE FRUIT THAT WILL REMAIN! (Rom 8:26) And
in the same way the Spirit does help in our weaknesses. We do not know what we
should pray, but the Spirit Himself pleads our case for us with groaning unutterable.
(Unknown speech) (Rom 8:27) And
He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He
makes intercession for the set-apart ones according to Elohim. (Rom 8:28) And
we know that all matters work together for good to those who love
Elohim, to those who are called according to His purpose.
Sometimes the
devil uses FEAR to keep us from trusting in the power of YHWH to give us His
Spirit and Power, so Yahshua reminds us to trust Him. Remember Luke 10:19
reminds us the demonic realm we have authority over is represented by snakes
and scorpions as all the power of hell: (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, 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.”
We
can rest assured that if we ask for the baptism of the Holy Spirit and Fire we
will not get a snake or a scorpion (representing
the demonic realm) since He has all power and authority and the Keys to the
Kingdom!
(Luke 11:10) “For everyone asking
receives, and he who is seeking finds, and to him who is knocking it shall be
opened. (Luke 11:11) “And what father
among you whose son asks for bread shall give him a stone, or if he asks for a
fish shall give him a snake
instead of a fish, (Luke 11:12) or if he asks for an egg shall give him a scorpion? (Luke 11:13) “If you then,
being wicked, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall
your Father from heaven give the Set-apart (Holy) Spirit to those asking Him!”
Here are this week’s Torah Scriptures: Shemini-Atzeret Vezot Ha Breradrah (And this is the Blessing)
Deuteronomy 33:1- 34:12; Numbers 29:35-40; Joshua 1:1-18; 2 Timothy 3:1-17
Deuteronomy 33:1 and this is the blessing
with which Mosheh the man of Elohim blessed the children of Yisra’ĕl before his
death. Deuteronomy 33:2 and he said, “יהוה came from Sinai, and rose from Sĕʽir for them. He shone forth
from Mount Paran, and came with ten thousands of set-apart ones – at His right
hand a law of fire for them. Deuteronomy 33:3
Indeed, He loves the peoples, all His set-apart ones are in your hand. And
they, they sat down at your feet, receiving Your Words. Deuteronomy 33:4 Mosheh commanded us a Torah, an inheritance of
the assembly of Yaʽaqoḇ. Deuteronomy 33:5
And He was Sovereign in Yeshurun, when the heads of the people were gathered,
the tribes of Yisra’ĕl. Deuteronomy 33:6 “Let
Re’uḇĕn live, and not die, and let his men be numbered.” Deuteronomy 33:7And this of Yehuḏah, and he said,
“Hear, יהוה, the voice of Yehuḏah, and bring him to
his people. His hands shall fight for him, and you be a help against his
enemies.” Deuteronomy 33:8 And of Lĕwi he said, “Your Tummim and Your
Urim belong to Your kind one, whom You tried at Massah, with whom You contended
at the waters of Meriḇah, Deuteronomy 33:9 who said of his father and mother, ‘I have
not seen them.’ And he did not acknowledge his brothers, or know his own
children, for they have guarded Your Word and watched over your covenant. Deuteronomy 33:10 “They teach your right-rulings to
Yaʽaqoḇ, and Your Torah to Yisra’ĕl. They put incense before you, and a
complete burnt offering on your altar. Deuteronomy
33:11 “O יהוה, bless his strength,
and accept the work of his hands. Smite the loins of those who rise against
him, and of those who hate him, that they rise no more.” Deuteronomy 33:12 Of Binyamin he said, “Let the
beloved of יהוה dwell in safety by Him, shielding him all
the day, as he dwells between His shoulders.” Deuteronomy 33:13 And of Yosĕph he said, “Blessed
of יהוה is his land, with the choicest from the
heavens, with the dew, and the deep lying beneath, Deuteronomy 33:14 with the choice fruits of
the sun, with the choice yield of the months, Deuteronomy 33:15 with the finest of the
ancient mountains, with the choicest of the everlasting hills, Deuteronomy 33:16
with the choicest of the earth and all that fills it, and the good
pleasure of Him who dwelt in the bush. Let it come on the head of Yosĕph, and
on the crown of the head of him who was separate from his brothers. Deuteronomy 33:17 “His splendor is like a first-born
bull, and his horns are like the horns of the wild ox. With them he pushes the
peoples to the ends of the earth. And they are the ten thousands of Ephrayim,
and they are the thousands of Menashsheh.” Deuteronomy 33:18 And of Zeḇulun he said, “Rejoice, O Zeḇulun, in your going out,
and Yissasḵar in your tents! Deuteronomy 33:19
“They call peoples to the mountain; there they bring offerings of
righteousness, for they draw from the riches of the seas, and treasures hidden
in the sand.” Deuteronomy 33:20 And of Gaḏ he
said, “Blessed is he who enlarges Gaḏ. He dwells as a lion, and shall tear off
the arm, also the crown. Deuteronomy 33:21 “And
he chose the best for himself, for there the portion of the lawgiver was
hidden. And he came with the heads of the people. The righteousness of יהוה he did, and His right-rulings with
Yisra’ĕl.” Deuteronomy 33:22 And of Dan he
said, “Dan is a lion’s cub, which leaps from Bashan.” Deuteronomy 33:23 And of Naphtali he said, “O Naphtali, satisfied with pleasure, and
filled with the blessing of יהוה, possess the west and
the south.” Deuteronomy 33:24 And of Ashĕr he
said, “Ashĕr is most blessed of sons. Let him be accepted y his brothers, and
dip his foot in oil. Deuteronomy 33:25 “Your
sandals are iron and bronze, and your strength as your days. Deuteronomy 33:26 “O Yeshurun, there is no one like
Ěl, riding the heavens to help you, and on the clouds, in His Excellency. Deuteronomy 33:27 “The Elohim of old is a refuge, and
beneath are everlasting arms. And He drives out the enemy from before you and
says, ‘Destroy!’ Deuteronomy 33:28 “Thus
Yisra’ĕl dwells in safety, the fountain of Yaʽaqoḇ alone, in a land of grain
and new wine. His heavens also drop down dew. Deuteronomy 33:29 “Blessed are you, O Yisra’ĕl! Who is like you, a people saved by יהוה, the shield of your help, and He who is
the sword of Your Excellency! And your enemies are subdued for you, and you
tread down their high places.”
Deuteronomy 34:1 And Mosheh went up from the
desert plains of Mo’aḇ to Mount Neḇo, to the top of
Pisgah, which is opposite Yeriḥo. And יהוה showed him all
the land of Gilʽaḏ as far as Dan, Deuteronomy 34:2
and all Naphtali and the land of Ephrayim and Menashsheh, all the land of
Yehuḏah as far as the Western Sea, Deuteronomy 34:3 and the Negeḇ, and the plain of the Valley
of Yeriḥo, the city of palm trees, as far as Tsoʽar. Deuteronomy 34:4 And יהוה
said to him, “This is the land of which I swore to Aḇraham, to Yitsḥaq, and
to Yaʽaqoḇ, saying, ‘To your seed I give it.’ I have let you look at it with
your eyes, but you do not pass over there.” Deuteronomy 34:5 And Mosheh the servant of יהוה
died there in the land of Mo’aḇ, according to the mouth of יהוה. Deuteronomy 34:6 And He buried
him in a valley in the land of Mo’aḇ, opposite Bĕyth Peʽor, and no one knows
his burial place to this day. Deuteronomy 34:7 And
Mosheh was one hundred and twenty years old when he died. His eyes were not dim
nor his freshness gone. Deuteronomy 34:8 and
the children of Yisra’ĕl wept for Mosheh in the desert plains of Mo’aḇ thirty
days. And the days of weeping and mourning for Mosheh were completed. Deuteronomy 34:9 And Yehoshua son of Nun was filled with the spirit of
wisdom, for Mosheh had laid his hands on him. And the
children of Yisra’ĕl listened to him, and did as יהוה
had commanded Mosheh. Deuteronomy 34:10 and since then no prophet has arisen in Yisra’ĕl like
Mosheh, whom יהוה knew face to face, Deuteronomy 34:11 for all the signs and wonders which
יהוה sent him to do in the land of Mitsrayim,
before Pharaoh, and before all his servants, and in all his land, Deuteronomy 34:12 and for all that strong hand and
all the great fearsome deeds which Mosheh did before the eyes of all Yisra’ĕl. Numbers 29:35
‘On the eighth day you have an assembly, you do no servile work, Numbers 29:36
and you shall bring near a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, a
sweet fragrance to יהוה: one bull, one ram, seven lambs a year
old, perfect ones, Numbers 29:37 their grain offering and their drink
offerings for the bull, for the ram, and for the lambs, by their number,
according to the right-ruling, Numbers 29:38 and one goat as a sin offering, besides the
continual burnt offering, its grain offering, and its drink offering. Numbers 29:39 ‘these you prepare to יהוה at your appointed times, besides your vowed offerings and your
voluntary offerings, as your burnt offerings and your grain offerings, as your
drink offerings and your peace offerings.’ ” Numbers 29:40 And Mosheh spoke to the children of Yisra’ĕl according to all יהוה had commanded Mosheh.
We
get the Word- Torah in us and we find success and FEAR NOT!
Joshua 1:1 and it came to be, after the
death of Mosheh the servant of יהוה, that יהוה spoke to Yehoshua son of Nun, the
assistant of Mosheh, saying, Joshua 1:2 “Mosheh
My servant is dead, so now, arise, pass over this Yardĕn, you and all this
people, to the land which I am giving to them, to the children of Yisra’ĕl. Joshua 1:3 “Every place on which the sole of your
foot treads I have given you, as I spoke to Mosheh. Joshua
1:4 “From the wilderness and this Leḇanon even as far as the great
river, the River Euphrates, all the land of the Ḥittites, and to the Great Sea
toward the going down of the sun, is your border. Joshua
1:5 No man is going to stand before you
all the days of your life. As I was with Mosheh, so I am with you. I
do not fail you nor forsake you. Joshua 1:6 “Be
strong and courageous, for you are to let this people inherit the land which I
swore to their fathers to give them. Joshua 1:7
“Only be strong and very courageous, to
guard to do according to all the Torah which Mosheh My servant commanded you.
Do not turn from it right or left, so that you act wisely wherever you go. Joshua 1:8 “Do not let this Book of the Torah depart from your
mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you guard to do
according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way
prosperous, and act wisely. Joshua 1:9 “Have I not
commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid, nor be
discouraged, for יהוה your Elohim is with
you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:10 And Yehoshua commanded the officers of the
people, saying, Joshua 1:11 “Pass through the midst of the camp and
command the people, saying, ‘Prepare food for yourselves, for within three days
you are passing over this Yardĕn, to go in to possess the land which יהוה your Elohim is giving you to possess.’ ” Joshua 1:12 And Yehoshua spoke to the Re’uḇĕnites
and to the Gaḏites and to half the tribe of Menashsheh, saying, Joshua 1:13 “Remember the word which Mosheh, servant
of יהוה, commanded you, saying, ‘יהוה your Elohim is giving you rest, and He shall give you this
land.’ Joshua 1:14 “Let your wives, your little
ones, and your livestock stay in the land which Mosheh gave you beyond the
Yardĕn. But you shall pass before your brothers in fives, all your brave
fighters, and shall help them, Joshua 1:15 until
יהוה has given your brothers rest, as unto you.
So shall they also take possession of the land which יהוה
your Elohim is giving them. Then you shall return to the land of your
possession, and shall possess that which Mosheh the servant of יהוה gave you beyond the Yardĕn toward the rising of the sun.” Joshua 1:16 and they answered Yehoshua, saying, “All
that you have commanded us we do, and wherever you send us we go. Joshua 1:17 “According to all that we obeyed Mosheh,
so we obey you. Only, let יהוה your Elohim be with
you, as He was with Mosheh. Joshua 1:18 “Whoever
rebels against your command and does not obey your words, in all that you
command him, is put to death. Only be strong and courageous.”
Sure
resembles most cultures of the Earth today
2Ti 3:1 but
know this, that in the last days;
hard (Perilous) times shall come. 2Ti 3:2
For men shall be lovers of self, lovers of money,
boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, thankless, wrong-doers,
2Ti 3:3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, haters
of good, 2Ti 3:4 betrayers, reckless, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers
of Elohim, 2Ti 3:5 having a form (Form of godliness but denying His
power= RELIGION) of reverence 1 but denying
its power. And turn away from these!
Footnote: 1 See v. 13, Isa. 24:5-6, Mt.
24:12, Rom. 1:30-31, 2 Thess. 2:3-11.
2Ti 3:6
For among them are those who creep into households and captivate silly
women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, 2Ti 3:7 always learning and never able to come to
the knowledge of the truth. 2Ti 3:8 And as Yoḥane
and Mamrĕ opposed Mosheh, so do these also oppose the truth – men of corrupt
minds, found worthless concerning the belief; 2Ti 3:9 but they shall not go on further, for their
folly shall be obvious to all, as also that of those men became. 2Ti 3:10 But
you did closely follow my teaching, the way of life, the purpose, the belief,
the patience, the love, the endurance, 2Ti 3:11 the persecutions, the sufferings, which came
to me at Antioch, at Ikonion, and at Lustra – what persecutions I bore.
Yet out of them all, the Master delivered me. 2Ti 3:12
and indeed, all those wishing to live reverently in
Messiah יהושע,
shall be persecuted.1 Footnote: 1 Mt. 5:10. 2Ti 3:13 But evil men and
impostors shall go on to the worse,1 leading astray and being
led astray. Footnote: 1 Mt. 24:12, Rev.
22:11. 2Ti 3:14 But you, stay in what
you have learned and trusted, having known from whom you have learned...
Loved One, I pray you and I walk in the spirit and not according
to the lusts and directions of the flesh and the culture surrounding us.
Note in the last days that there will be mockers – not
having the Ruach- but we are to pray in the Ruach (Unknown tongues) as this
builds us up to walk in FAITH and LOVE!
Jude 1:17 But you,
beloved ones, remember the words spoken before by the emissaries of our Master יהושע Messiah, Jude 1:18 because they told you that there would be mockers
in the last time who would
walk according to their own wicked lusts. Jude 1:19
these are the ones who cause divisions, not having the Spirit. Jude 1:20 But you, beloved ones, building
yourselves up on your most set-apart belief, praying in the Set-apart Spirit,
Jude 1:21
keep yourselves in the LOVE of Elohim,
looking for the compassion of our Master יהושע
Messiah unto everlasting life. Jude 1:22 and
show compassion toward some who are doubting, Jude 1:23 but others save with fear, snatching them out of the fire, hating, even the garment defiled by the flesh.1 Footnote: 1 See Gal. 5:19-21, Rom. 8:5-10.
I add prayer that we may each repent
quickly wherever we miss and stumble, and the snares set by hasatan- all miss
us. I further pray we ALWAYS forgive and speak forgiveness and blessings on
those who do and have done evil against us. They need our love of the Father
(Our obedience) to break forth and come to our King! This is how they will
recognize us; that we have love for one another and our King! It is the LOVE of
YHWH that draws men to repentance- not
our knowledge! We are expected to reveal His nature and love people since
we are born of His seed.
Loved One, I pray YOU and I 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 you
gain an ear to hear Him and the courage to obey Him! Thank you again for
praying for Billie and me!
Blessings to your home Loved One,
Thurston
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 who are still scattered for Easter and sun god day worship which
parallels closely as a pig slop eating prodigal brother)
Let’s look once again together; (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 from here forward!) Ten men
(Ten tribes scattered) from all
languages of the nations take hold,
yea, they shall take hold of the edge of the garment of a man, a Yehuḏite 1, saying, “Let us go with you,
for we have heard that Elohim is with you.” ’ ” Footnote:
1John 4:22.
