Blood Moon Warnings---are we awakened yet?
Have you noticed loved one? There
is a great shaking going on, not only in our countries but in our families…friends
and relationships. Some are forever being molded and some are departing. The
very fabric of our cultures…everything that can be shaken and removed—will be.
Yes- even the sheep and goats are being divided. No more religious games, these
are serious days and most on Planet Earth see that. Goats are independent- will
not follow as they think and do for themselves; that is they really have no master-
except their own desires. They do what they want, and even if they have “toed
the line” with religion and played the game---the heat has now been turned up by Yahweh who is a Consuming Fire—and
they must now be shown for where their hearts are. It has to be this way, so we
will know who to pray for them with fervent and diligent prayer like Elijah
did! They are not sheep- sheep hear and follow in obedience their Master! The
shaking will be personal, relationships, even the earth and heaven will be
shaken—and what can be removed – will be removed!
Hebrews
12:22 But you have drawn near to Mount Tsiyon and
to the city of the living Elohim, to the heavenly Yerushalayim, to myriads of
messengers, Hebrews 12:23 to the entire
gathering and assembly of the first-born having been enrolled in heaven, and to
Elohim the Judge of all, and to the spirits of righteous men made perfect, Hebrews 12:24
and to יהושע the Mediator 1 of a new covenant, and to the
blood of sprinkling which speaks better than the blood of Heḇel. Footnote: 1 See 8:6. Hebrews 12:25 Take heed not to refuse the one
speaking. For if those did not escape who refused the warning on earth, much
less we who turn away from Him from heaven, Hebrews
12:26 whose voice shook the earth then, but now He has promised, saying,
“Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also the
heaven.” Hebrews 12:27 and this, “Yet once more,” makes clear the removal of what is shaken
– as having been made – so that the unshaken matters might remain.
Hebrews 12:28 therefore, receiving an unshakeable
reign, let us hold the favor, through which we serve Elohim pleasingly with
reverence and awe, Hebrews 12:29 for indeed, our Elohim is a consuming fire.
Here’s a quick
summary reminder of who we are Loved One- WE ARE the dry bones coming together
that we may live! Hallelu-YAH- We FEAR NOT!
(Ezekiel
37:1)
The hand of יהוה was upon me and took me out by the Spirit of יהוה, and set me down in the midst of the valley. And it was filled
with bones. (Ezekiel 37:2) And He made me pass among them, all around,
and see, there were very many on the surface of the valley, and see, they were
very dry. (Ezekiel 37:3) And He said to me, “Son of man, would these
bones live?” And I said, “O Master יהוה,
you know.” (Ezekiel 37:4) Again He said to me, “Prophesy to these bones
and you shall say to them, ‘O dry bones, hear the word of יהוה! (Ezekiel 37:5) ‘Thus said the Master יהוה
to these bones, “See, I am bringing into you a spirit, and you shall live. (Ezekiel 37:6)
“And I shall put sinews on you and bring flesh upon you, and cover you
with skin and put a spirit in you, and you shall live. And you shall know that
I am יהוה.” ’ ” (Ezekiel
37:7) and I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I prophesied, there
was a noise, and there was a rattling. And the bones came together, bone to
bone. (Ezekiel 37:8) And I looked and saw sinews and flesh came
upon them, and skin covered them, but there was no spirit in them. (Ezekiel 37:9)
He then said to me, “Prophesy to the spirit, prophesy, son of man, and
you shall say to the spirit, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה,
“Come from the four winds, O spirit, and breathe on these slain, so that they
live.” ’ ” (Ezekiel 37:10) and I prophesied as
He commanded me, and the spirit came into them, and they lived, and stood upon
their feet, a very great army. (Ezekiel 37:11) And He said to me, “Son of man, these bones
are all the house of Yisra’ĕl. See, they say, ‘Our bones are dry, our
expectancy has perished, and we ourselves have been cut off!’ (Ezekiel 37:12)
“Therefore prophesy, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “See, O my people, I am opening your
graves, and shall bring you up from your graves, and shall bring you into the
land of Yisra’ĕl. (Ezekiel 37:13) “And you shall know that I am יהוה, when I open your graves, O My people, and bring you up from your
graves. (Ezekiel 37:14) “And I shall put My Spirit in you, and you
shall live, and I shall settle you in your own land. And you shall know that I יהוה have spoken, and I have done it,” declares
יהוה.’ ”
Happy Easter? Firstly- Easter was not happy- she was
and is the fertility goddess. How do we
determine to exchange our stubborn, stony hearts for hearts made of clay-
mold-able? We don’t get to make up or even follow made up holy set apart days. We
must choose to love Him by humbling ourselves and obeying His word! Let’s
take a look at how He allows us to determine our own fate and future: remember-
we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the Word of our testimony!
(Deuteronomy
30:11) “For this command which I am commanding you
today, it is not too hard for you, nor is it far off. (Deuteronomy
30:12) “It is not in the heavens,
to say, ‘Who shall ascend into the heavens for us, and bring it to us, and
cause us to hear it, so that we do it?’ (Deuteronomy
30:13) “Nor is it beyond the sea,
to say, ‘Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it to us, and cause us to
hear it, so that we do it?’ (Deuteronomy 30:14) “For the Word is very near you, in your mouth
and in your heart – to do it. (Deuteronomy 30:15) “See,
I have set before you today life and good, and death and evil, (Deuteronomy 30:16) in
that I am commanding you today to love יהוה your Elohim, to walk in His ways, and to guard His commands,
and His laws, and His right-rulings. And you shall live and increase, and יהוה your Elohim shall bless you in the land
which you go to possess. (Deuteronomy 30:17) “But
if your heart turns away, and you do not obey, and shall be drawn away, and
shall bow down to other mighty ones and serve them, (Deuteronomy 30:18) “I have declared to you today that you shall
certainly perish, you shall not prolong your days in the land which you are
passing over the Yardĕn to enter and possess. (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.”
Israel was scattered
worldwide and remains scattered for our disobedience- next judgment for
continuing to disobey- “You shall surely perish!” Or receive a heart of flesh-
by our choice to humble ourselves and show we love Him- with obedience!
(Ezekiel
36:16) And the word of יהוה came to me, saying, (Ezekiel 36:17) “Son of man, when the house of
Yisra’ĕl dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their own ways and deeds.
To me their way was like the uncleanness of a woman in her monthly period. (Ezekiel 36:18)
“So I poured out my wrath on them for the blood they had shed on the
land, and for their idols they defiled it. (Ezekiel
36:19) “And I scattered them among the gentiles, and they were dispersed
throughout the lands. I have judged them according to their ways and their
deeds. (Ezekiel 36:20) “And when they came to the gentiles, wherever
they went, they profaned my set-apart Name for it was said of them, ‘These are
the people of יהוה, and yet they have
gone out of His land.’ (Ezekiel 36:21) “But I had compassion on my set-apart Name,
which the house of Yisra’ĕl had profaned among the gentiles wherever they went.
(Ezekiel 36:22)
“Therefore say to the house of Yisra’ĕl, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “I do not do this for your sake, O house
of Yisra’ĕl, but for my set-apart Name’s sake, which you have profaned among
the gentiles wherever you went. (Ezekiel 36:23) “And I shall set apart my great Name, which
has been profaned among the gentiles, which you have profaned in their midst.
And the gentiles shall know that I am יהוה,”
declares the Master יהוה, “When I am set-apart
in you before their eyes. (Ezekiel 36:24) “And I shall take you from among the
gentiles, and I shall gather you out of all lands, and I shall bring you into
your own land. (Ezekiel 36:25) “And I shall sprinkle clean water on you,
and you shall be clean – from all your filthiness and from all your idols I
cleanse you. (Ezekiel 36:26) “And I shall give you a new heart and put a
new spirit within you. And I shall take the heart of stone out of your flesh,
and I shall give you a heart of flesh, (Ezekiel
36:27) and put My Spirit within you 1. And I shall
cause you to walk in my laws and guard my right-rulings and shall do them. Footnote: 1 See 11:19-20, 37:6-14, 39:29. (Ezekiel 36:28)
“And you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers. And you
shall be my people, and I shall be your Elohim. (Ezekiel
36:29) “And I shall save you from
all your uncleanness’s. And I shall call for the grain and increase it, and I
shall bring no scarcity of food upon you. (Ezekiel
36:30) “And I shall increase the
fruit of your trees and the increase of your fields, so that you need never
again bear the reproach of scarcity of food among the gentiles. (Ezekiel 36:31)
“And you shall remember your evil ways and your deeds that were not
good. And you shall loathe yourselves in your own eyes, for your crookedness’s
and your abominations. (Ezekiel 36:32) “Not for your sake am I acting,” declares the
Master יהוה, “let it be known to you. Be ashamed and blush for your ways, O house of Yisra’ĕl!”
Should we really
keep man made traditions- like the Easter egg hunt or keep the Scripture
command and obey PASSOVER? Yahshua is our Passover Lamb- not the Easter bunny.
PLEASE- don’t take that question
as even a remote possibility! Okay let’s answer the question that is
continually in our face. Or do we choose to obey our Creator. Hmm We can biblically determine again when the
year starts, so we may observe His commands out of loving obedience!
(1 Peter
1:17) And if you call on the Father, who without
partiality judges according to each one’s work, pass the time of your
sojourning in fear, (1 Peter 1:18) knowing that you were redeemed from your
futile way of life inherited from your fathers, not with what is corruptible,
silver or gold, (1 Peter 1:19) but with the precious blood of Messiah, as of a lamb
unblemished and spotless, (1 Peter 1:20) foreknown, indeed, before the foundation of
the world, but manifested in these last times for your sake, (1 Peter 1:21)
who through Him believe in Elohim who raised Him from the dead and gave
Him esteem, so that your belief and expectation are in Elohim. (1 Peter 1:22)
Now that you have cleansed your lives in obeying the truth through the
Spirit to unfeigned brotherly love, love one another fervently with a clean
heart, (1 Peter 1:23) having been born again –
not of corruptible seed, but incorruptible – through the living Word of Elohim,
which remains forever...
(Revelation
7:14) And I said to him, “Master, you know.” And he
said to me, “These are those coming out of the great distress, having washed
their robes and made them white in
the blood of the Lamb.
The Biblical NEW
YEAR started at sundown Saturday two weeks ago this evening! Therefore tonight
at sundown (April 4th) is
Passover by most reckonings! Why is that of any importance to you and me living
today? Because many of the body of believers have been blinded by the enemy of
our souls and still follow vain traditions which are mostly man made
additions and traditions of “Churchianity” handed down from the anything but a “Holy” Roman Empire ruler
Constantine; who was a sun god
worshiper and enforced these “man made doctrines” with the penalty of death
for rejection. Since we biblically understand when the year starts we can
observe and do His commanded Holy Days (Holidays) and not do vain observations
that He considers abominations. Many Christians honor all the TRADITIONAL holidays such as
Christmas, Easter, Lent and never consider their pagan roots which were
orchestrated by Rome.
Some of us know
that the day of the sun (Sun-day) was
rooted from sun god worship and Easter was the pagan fertility goddess, where
the Easter Priests (Not Christians or in
any form followers of Messiah) - would impregnate the virgins on the
sunrise service and sacrifice the 3 month old babies from the prior years'
sunrise service, dipping the eggs of Easter into the freshly sacrificed
babies blood and declare- HAPPY EASTER
EVERYONE! Have a prosperous and
fertile year! This was their form of
Happy New Year! Lent was the 40 days
of fasting and weeping for Tamuz- goodness- Loved Ones- think maybe these
traditions are possibly an abomination to our Creator? He taught us to NOT LEARN the ways of the heathen and say we are
worshiping Him! (Jeremiah 10:2) Thus said יהוה, “Do not learn the way of the gentiles, 1 and do not be awed by the signs of the
heavens, for the gentiles are awed by them.2
Footnotes: 1 Lev. 18:3, Dt. 12:30 &
18:9, Ezekiel. 11:12 & 20:32, Eph. 4:17, 1 Peter 4:3. 2Dt. 4:19 & 17:3.
He also COMMANDED US: (Deuteronomy 4:2) “Do not add to the Word which I command you, and do not subtract from it 1, so as to guard the
commands of יהוה your
Elohim which I am commanding you. Footnote: 1See also
12:32, Prov. 30:6, Revelation. 22:18-19. Do you and I suppose he has changed His mind about that; so we think it
okay to ADD these manmade
traditions as holy days and festivals (holidays)? And SUBTRACT His Feasts and festivals?
This begs the question…Do "we" worship Him in VAIN?
(Maybe we should consider doing only what
He says and not what tradition allows because it seems likely from Scripture
that many “believers” are following these traditions and worshiping in VAIN!)
Really- Worship in VAIN? Goodness – maybe we should really reconsider Loved
Ones- another Scripture comes to mind- “Come out of her my people or partake in
her plagues!” Loved Ones, should we worship Him the way He says or obey
men and our traditions? Is obedience to the Word made flesh that dwelled among
us really important? Is our own judgment
really only a heartbeat away? Do we really want to nullify all the promises received from obedience- given in the
Word?
Read
and know Yahshua (Jesus) warns us living today!
Matthew
15:3
He answering, said to them, “Why do you also transgress the command of Elohim 1 because
of your tradition? Footnote: 1 See
Matthew. 5:20. Matthew 15:4 “For Elohim has commanded, saying, ‘Respect your father and
your mother,’ and, ‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’ Matthew 15:5 “But you say, ‘Whoever says to his father or mother,
“Whatever profit you might have received from me has been dedicated,” Matthew 15:6 is certainly released
from respecting his father or mother.’ So you have nullified the command of Elohim by your tradition. Matthew 15:7 “Hypocrites! Yeshayahu rightly prophesied about you, saying, Matthew 15:8 ‘This people
draw near to Me with their mouth, and respect Me with their lips, but their
heart is far from Me. Matthew 15:9 ‘But in vain do
they worship Me, teaching as my doctrines- the commands of men.’ ” 1 Footnote: 1 Isaiah.
29:13, Mk. 7:7, 2 Kings 17:19.
Obedience really comes from LOVE of Yahshua: (John 14:10) “Do you not
believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? The words that I
speak to you I do not speak from myself. But the Father who stays in me does
His works. (John 14:11) “Believe Me that I am
in the Father and the Father in me, otherwise believe me because of the works
themselves. (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 (keep) 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 (keeps) 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.”
There is still a Heaven and Earth so Instructions
(Law- Torah) Remain!
Do we realize
that IN THE BEGINNING Yahshua (Jesus)
was the word and is the word even at Mt Sinai? Malachi 4 and Hebrews 13:8
testifies that He changes not and is the same yesterday, today and forever-
what part of “forever” is so difficult for us to understand? The enemy has
planted many tares and blinded many of us into thinking our religious
traditions are acceptable to our King! However; He claims we are worshiping
Him in VAIN! Please let us not use the excuse that those words have passed away
because Yahshua addressed that thought beforehand and leaves us no excuse when
we stand in His presence; (Matthew 5:17) Think not that I
am come to destroy the law, (Torah-
Instructions) or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. (Matthew 5:18)
For verily I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in
no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. (Matthew 5:19)
Whosoever therefore shall break one of these
least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the
kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be
called great in the kingdom of heaven.
So; is it ALL
fulfilled? Is there still a heaven and an earth? YEP! When does it go
away---at the end of the 1000 year millennium! That is when they are ALL
fulfilled!
What is
fulfilled were the Spring Feasts of YHWH; He was and is the Passover Lamb, He is the High Priest
who had to be in seclusion until the First Fruits
Offering (Some try to make
Easter this day or Resurrection Day) and could not be touched (“Don’t touch
me Mary- I have not yet ascended to the Father”) then the graves opened and
many were seen around Jerusalem risen from the dead as He was the first of many
of the First Fruits Offering; then on Shavuot (we now call Pentecost) He
poured out His Spirit that His commands would no longer be impossible (burdensome) to keep. These were and are
the Spring Feasts he and we start our year with- they are the shadow picture of
things to come. The Fall Feasts have not
yet been fulfilled- we are finally; during our generation, approaching the Feast
of Trumpets and at the LAST TRUMPET, the dead in Messiah rise first; then
10 days later we have the DAY OF ATONEMENT or some of us call Judgment
Day; then 5 days later we have The Feast of Tabernacles or Sukkoth when
we tabernacle or dwell with Him forever; then on the eighth day of this Feast
we have the LAST GREAT DAY or the WEDDING FEAST OF THE LAMB.
Once again; these Fall Feasts are not
yet fulfilled.
So what does Yahshua say about this; are there still a heaven and an earth? If
there is a heaven and earth still we are commanded to: (Matthew 5:17) think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. (Matthew 5:18)
For verily I say unto you, till heaven and
earth pass,
one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be
fulfilled. (Matthew 5:19) Whosoever therefore
shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall
be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach
them, the same
shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Passover
commanded!
(Exodus
12:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh and to Aharon in the land
of Mitsrayim, saying, Exodus 12:2) “This month is the beginning of months
for you; it is the first month of the year for you. (Exodus 12:3)
“Speak to all the congregation of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘On the tenth day of
this month each one of them is to take for himself a lamb, according to the
house of his father, a lamb for a household. (Exodus
12:4) ‘And if the household is
too small for the lamb, let him and his neighbor next to his house take it
according to the number of the beings, according to each man’s need you make
your count for the lamb. (Exodus 12:5) ‘Let the lamb be a perfect one, a year old
male. Take it from the sheep or from the goats. (Exodus
12:6) ‘And you shall keep it
until the fourteenth day of the same month. Then all the assembly of the
congregation of Yisra’ĕl shall kill it between the evenings. (Exodus 12:7)
‘And they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts
and on the lintel of the houses where they eat it. (Exodus
12:8) ‘And they shall eat the
flesh on that night, roasted in fire – with unleavened bread and with bitter
herbs they shall eat it. (Exodus 12:9) ‘Do not eat it raw, nor boiled at all with
water, but roasted in fire, its head with its legs and its inward parts.
(Exodus 12:10)
‘And do not leave of it until morning, and what remains of it until
morning you are to burn with fire. (Exodus 12:11) ‘And this is how you eat it: your loins girded
your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand. And you shall eat it in
haste.
Since we are grafted in- let’s
obey and not get removed from the Body of Messiah!
It is the Passover of יהוה. (Exodus 12:12)
‘And I shall pass through the land of Mitsrayim on that night, and shall
smite all the first-born in the land of Mitsrayim, both man and beast. And on
all the mighty ones of Mitsrayim I shall execute judgment. I am יהוה. (Exodus 12:13) ‘And the blood shall be a sign for you on the
houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I shall pass over you, and let
the plague not come on you to destroy you when I smite the land of Mitsrayim. (Exodus 12:14)
‘And this day shall become to you a remembrance. And you shall observe
it as a festival to יהוה throughout your
generations – observe it as a festival, an everlasting law. (Exodus 12:15)
‘Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. Indeed on the first day you
cause leaven to cease from your houses. For whoever
eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that being shall
be cut off from Yisra’ĕl. (Exodus
12:16) ‘And on the first day is a
set-apart gathering, and on the seventh day you have a set-apart gathering. No
work at all is done on them, only that which is eaten by every being, that
alone is prepared by you. (Exodus 12:17) ‘And you shall guard the Festival of
Unleavened Bread, for on this same day I brought your divisions out of the land
of Mitsrayim. And you shall guard this day throughout your generations, an
everlasting law. (Exodus 12:18) ‘In the first month, on the fourteenth
day of the month, in the evening, you shall eat unleavened bread until the
twenty-first day of the month in the evening. (Exodus
12:19) ‘For seven days no
leaven is to be found in your houses, for if anyone eats what is leavened,
that same being shall be cut off from the congregation of Yisra’ĕl, whether
sojourner or native of the land. (Exodus 12:20) ‘Do not eat that which is leavened – in all
your dwellings you are to eat unleavened bread.’ ” (Exodus
12:21) And Mosheh called for all the elders of Yisra’ĕl and said to
them, “Go out and take lambs for yourselves according to your clans, and
slaughter the Passover lamb. (Exodus 12:22) “And you shall take a bunch of hyssop, and
dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two
doorposts with the blood that is in the basin, and you, none of you shall go
out of the door of his house until morning. (Exodus
12:23) “And יהוה shall pass on to smite the Mitsrites, and shall see the blood
on the lintel and on the two doorposts, and יהוה
shall pass over the door and not allow the destroyer to come into your houses
to smite you. (Exodus 12:24) “And
you shall guard this word as a law for you and your sons, forever.
Did YHWH provide
Himself as a Lamb? YHWH YIREH our provision seen-
(Genesis
22:7) And Yitsḥaq
spoke to Aḇraham his father and said, “My father!” And he said, “Here I am, my
son.” And he said, “See, the fire and the wood! But where is the lamb for a
burnt offering?” (Genesis 22:8) And Aḇraham said, “My son, Elohim does provide (for) Himself the lamb for a burnt offering.”
And the two of them went together. (Genesis 22:9) And they came to the place which Elohim had
commanded him, and Aḇraham built an altar there and placed the wood in order.
And he bound Yitsḥaq his son and laid him on the altar, upon the wood. (Genesis 22:10)
And Aḇraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son, (Genesis 22:11) but the Messenger of יהוה called to him
from the heavens and said, “Aḇraham, Aḇraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” (Genesis 22:12)
And He said, “Do not lay your hand on the boy, nor touch him. For now I
know that you fear Elohim, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only
son, from me.” (Genesis 22:13) And Aḇraham lifted his eyes and looked and
saw behind him a ram caught in a bush by its horns, and Aḇraham went and took
the ram and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son. (Genesis 22:14)
And Aḇraham called the name of the place, ‘יהוה
Yireh,’ as it is said to this day, “On
the mountain יהוה provides.” (Genesis 22:15) And the
Messenger of יהוה called to Aḇraham a
second time from the heavens, (Genesis 22:16) and said, “By Myself I have sworn, declares יהוה, because you have done this, and have not
withheld your son, your only son, (Genesis 22:17) that I shall certainly bless you, and I shall
certainly increase your seed as the stars of the heavens and as the sand which
is on the seashore, and let your seed possess the gate of their enemies. (Genesis 22:18)
“And in your seed all the nations
of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice.”

Noah- “Rest” (Passover
Scripture Added)
Genesis
6:9-11:32; Exodus 12; Isaiah 54:1-55:13; 1 Peter 1:17-23
(Genesis
6:1) And it came to be, when men began to increase
on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them, (Genesis 6:2) that the sons of Elohim saw the
daughters of men, that they were good. And they took wives for themselves of
all whom they chose. (Genesis 6:3) And יהוה said, “My Spirit shall not strive with man
forever in his going astray. He is flesh, and his days shall be one hundred and
twenty years.”
Uh Oh- Fallen angels (demon alien beings) mated with
women- Yahshua promised- “As in the days of Noah- so shall it be at the coming of the
son of man!” This is wicked!
(Genesis 6:4)
The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward,
when the sons of Elohim came in to the
daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men
who were of old, the men of name. (Genesis 6:5) And יהוה
saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every
inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. (Genesis 6:6) And יהוה
was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. (Genesis 6:7)
And יהוה said, “I am going to wipe off man whom I
have created from the face of the earth, man and beast, creeping creature and
birds of the heavens, for I am sorry that I have made them.” (Genesis 6:8)
But Noaḥ found favor in the eyes of יהוה.
(Genesis 6:9)
This is the genealogy of Noaḥ. Noaḥ was a righteous man, perfect in
his generations. Noaḥ walked with Elohim. (Genesis
6:10) And Noaḥ brought forth
three sons: Shĕm, Ḥam, and Yepheth. (Genesis 6:11) And the earth was corrupt before Elohim, and
the earth was filled with violence. (Genesis 6:12) And Elohim looked upon the earth and saw that
it was corrupt – for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth – (Genesis 6:13) and Elohim said to Noaḥ, “The end of
all flesh has come before me, for the earth is filled with violence through
them. And see, I am going to destroy them from the earth. (Genesis 6:14)
“Make yourself an ark of gopher wood. Make rooms in the ark, and cover
it inside and outside with tar. (Genesis 6:15) “And this is how you are to make it: The
length of the ark is three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its
height thirty cubits. (Genesis 6:16) “Make a window for the ark, and complete it
to a cubit from above. And set the door of the ark in its side. Make it with
lower, second, and third decks. (See www.wyattmuseum.com)
(Genesis 6:17)
“And see, I myself am bringing flood waters on the earth, to destroy all
flesh in which is the breath of life from under the heavens – all that is on
the earth is to die. (Genesis 6:18) “And I shall establish My covenant with you, and
you shall come into the ark, you and your sons and your wife and your sons’
wives with you. (Genesis 6:19) “And of all the living creatures of all
flesh, two of each, you are to bring into the ark, to keep them alive with you
– a male and a female. (Genesis 6:20) “Of the birds after their kind, and of the
cattle after their kind, and of all creeping creatures of the earth after their
kind, two of each are to come to you, to keep them alive. (Genesis 6:21)
“As for you, take of all food that is eaten and gather it to yourself.
And it shall be food for you and for them.” (Genesis
6:22) And Noaḥ did according to all that Elohim commanded him, so he did.
Hear and Obey (She’mah O’ Israel)
brings forth saving Instructions
(Genesis
7:1) And יהוה said to Noaḥ, “Come into the ark, you and
your entire household, because I have seen that you are righteous before me in
this generation. (Genesis 7:2)
“Of all the clean beasts take with you seven pairs, a male and his
female; and of the beasts that are unclean two, a male and his female; (Genesis 7:3)
and of birds of the heavens seven pairs, male and female, to keep
offspring alive on the face of all the earth. (Genesis
7:4) “For after seven more days I
am sending rain on the earth, forty days and forty nights, and shall wipe from
the face of the earth all that stand that I created.”(Genesis
7:5) And Noaḥ did according
to all that יהוה commanded him. (Genesis 7:6)
Now Noaḥ was six hundred years old when the flood-waters were on the
earth. (Genesis 7:7) And Noaḥ and his sons and his wife and his
sons’ wives went into the ark because of the waters of the flood. (Genesis 7:8)
Of the clean beasts and of the beasts that are unclean, and of birds,
and of all that creep on the earth, (Genesis 7:9)
two by two they went into the ark to Noaḥ, male and female, as Elohim had
commanded Noaḥ. (Genesis 7:10) And it came to be after seven days that the
waters of the flood were on the earth. (Genesis 7:11) In the six hundredth year of Noaḥ’s life,
in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the
fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of the heavens were
opened. (Genesis 7:12) And the rain was on the earth forty days
and forty nights. (Genesis 7:13) On that same day Noaḥ and Shĕm and Ḥam and
Yepheth, the sons of Noaḥ, and Noaḥ’s wife and the three wives of his sons
with them, went into the ark, Genesis 7:14)
they and every living creature after its kind, and every beast after its kind,
and every creeping creature that creeps on the earth after its kind, and every
bird after its kind, every bird of every sort. (Genesis
7:15) And they went into the ark
to Noaḥ, two by two, of all flesh in which is the breath of life. (Genesis 7:16)
And those going in, male and female of all flesh, went in as Elohim had
commanded him, and יהוה shut him in. (Genesis 7:17)
And the flood was on the earth forty days, and the waters increased and
lifted up the ark, and it rose high above the earth. (Genesis
7:18) And the waters were mighty
and greatly increased on the earth, and the ark moved about on the surface of
the waters. (Genesis 7:19) And the waters were exceedingly mighty on the
earth, and all the high mountains under all the heavens were covered. (Genesis 7:20)
The waters became mighty, fifteen cubits upward, and the mountains were
covered. (Genesis 7:21) And all flesh died that moved on the earth –
birds and cattle and beasts and every creeping creature that creeps on the
earth, and all mankind. (Genesis 7:22) All in whose nostrils was the breath of the
spirit of life, all that was on the dry land, died. (Genesis
7:23) So He wiped off that entire
stand, which were on the face of the ground – man and beast, creeping creature
and bird of the heavens. And they were wiped off from the earth. And only Noaḥ
was left and those with him in the ark. (Genesis 7:24) And the waters were mighty on the earth, one
hundred and fifty days.
Noah found grace in His eyes!
(Genesis
8:1) And Elohim remembered Noaḥ, and all the beasts and all the cattle that were with
him in the ark. And Elohim made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters
subsided. (Genesis 8:2) And the fountains of the deep and the windows
of the heavens were stopped, and the rain from the heavens was withheld. (Genesis 8:3)
And the waters receded steadily from the earth, and at the end of the
hundred and fifty days the waters diminished. (Genesis
8:4) And in the seventh month,
the seventeenth day of the month, the ark rested on the mountains of Ararat. (Genesis 8:5)
And the waters decreased steadily until the tenth month. In the tenth
month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains became visible.
(Genesis 8:6)
And it came to be, at the end of forty days, that Noaḥ opened the
window of the ark which he had made, (Genesis 8:7) and he sent out a raven, which kept going out
and turning back until the waters had dried up from the earth. (Genesis 8:8)
Then he sent out a dove from him, to see if the waters had receded from
the face of the ground. (Genesis 8:9) But the dove found no resting place for its
feet and returned into the ark to him, for the waters were on the face of all
the earth. So he put out his hand and took it, and pulled it into the ark to
himself. (Genesis 8:10) And he waited yet another seven days, and
again he sent the dove out from the ark. (Genesis
8:11) And the dove came to him in
the evening, and see, a freshly plucked olive leaf was in its mouth. And Noaḥ
knew that the waters had receded from the earth. (Genesis
8:12) And he waited yet another
seven days and sent out the dove, which did not return to him again. (Genesis 8:13)
And it came to be in the six hundred and first year, in the first month,
the first day of the month that the waters were dried up from the earth. And
Noaḥ removed the covering of the ark and looked, and saw the surface of the
ground was dry. (Genesis 8:14) And in the second month, on the
twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry. (Genesis
8:15) And Elohim spoke to Noaḥ,
saying, (Genesis 8:16) “Go out of the ark, you
and your wife and your sons and your sons’ wives with you. (Genesis 8:17)
“Bring out with you every living creature of all flesh that is with you:
of birds, of cattle and all creeping creatures that creep on the earth. And let
them teem on the earth and bear and increase on the earth.” (Genesis 8:18)
So Noaḥ went out, and his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives with
him, (Genesis 8:19) every beast, every creeping
creature, and every bird, whatever creeps on the earth, according to their
kinds, went out of the ark. (Genesis 8:20) And Noaḥ built an altar to יהוה, and took of
every clean beast and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the
altar. (Genesis 8:21) And יהוה
smelled a soothing fragrance, and יהוה
said in His heart, “Never again shall I curse the ground because of man,
although the inclination of man’s heart is evil from his youth, and never again
smite all living creatures, as I have done, (Genesis
8:22) as long as the earth
remains, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and winter and summer, and
day and night shall not cease.”
Don’t eat blood unless you want to be guaranteed to be removed from Life
everlasting!
(Genesis
9:1) And Elohim blessed Noaḥ and his sons, and said to them, “Bear fruit and
increase, and fill the earth. (Genesis 9:2) “And the fear of you and the dread of you is
on every beast of the earth, on every bird of the heavens, on all that creeps
on the ground, and on all the fish of the sea – into your hand they have been
given. (Genesis 9:3) “Every moving creature that lives is food for
you. I have given you all, as I gave the green plants. (Genesis 9:4)
“But do not eat flesh with its
life, its blood. (Genesis 9:5) “But only your blood for your lives I
require, from the hand of every beast I require it, and from the hand of man.
>From the hand of every man’s brother I require the life of man. (Genesis 9:6)
“Whoever sheds man’s blood, by man his blood is shed, for in the image
of Elohim has He made man. (Genesis 9:7) “As for you, bear fruit and increase, bring
forth teemingly in the earth and increase in it.” (Genesis
9:8) And Elohim spoke to Noaḥ
and to his sons with him, saying, (Genesis 9:9)
“And I, see, I establish My covenant with you and with your seed after you, (Genesis 9:10) and with every living creature that is
with you: of the birds, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with
you, of all that go out of the ark, every beast of the earth. (Genesis 9:11)
“And I shall establish my covenant with you, and never again is all
flesh cut off by the waters of the flood, and never again is there a flood
to destroy the earth.” (Genesis 9:12) And Elohim said, “This is the sign of the
covenant which I make between me and you, and every living creature that is
with you, for all generations to come: (Genesis 9:13)
“I shall set my
rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me
and the earth. (Genesis 9:14) “And it shall be, when I bring a cloud over
the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud, (Genesis 9:15) and I shall
remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of
all flesh, and never again let the waters become a flood to destroy all flesh. (Genesis 9:16)
“And the rainbow shall be in the
cloud, and I shall see it, to remember the everlasting covenant between Elohim
and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.” (Genesis 9:17)
And Elohim said to Noaḥ, “This is the sign of the covenant which I have
established between me and all flesh that is on the earth.” (Genesis 9:18)
And the sons of Noaḥ who went out of the ark were Shĕm and Ḥam and
Yepheth. And Ḥam was the father of Kenaʽan. (Genesis
9:19) these three were the sons of Noaḥ, and all the earth was
overspread from them. (Genesis 9:20) And Noaḥ, a man of the soil, began and
planted a vineyard. (Genesis 9:21) And he drank of the wine and was drunk, and
became uncovered in his tent. (Genesis 9:22) And Ḥam, the father of Kenaʽan, saw the
nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside. (Genesis 9:23)
So Shĕm and Yepheth took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and
went backward and covered the nakedness of their father, but their faces were
turned away, and they did not see their father’s nakedness. (Genesis 9:24)
And Noaḥ awoke from his wine, and he knew what his younger son had done
to him, (Genesis 9:25) and he said, “Cursed is
Kenaʽan, let him become a servant of servants to his brothers.” (Genesis 9:26)
And he said, “Blessed be יהוה, the Elohim of Shĕm, and let Kenaʽan become his servant. (Genesis 9:27)
“Let Elohim enlarge Yepheth, and let him dwell in the tents of Shĕm. And
let Kenaʽan become his servant.” (Genesis 9:28) And Noaḥ lived after the flood three hundred
and fifty years. (Genesis 9:29) So all the days of Noaḥ were nine hundred
and fifty years, and he died.
Self Exaltation
– Nimrod- Beware Loved One
(Genesis 10:1) And this is the genealogy of the sons of Noaḥ: Shĕm, Ḥam, and Yepheth. And sons were born to them
after the flood. (Genesis 10:2) The sons of Yepheth: Gomer, and Maḡoḡ, and
Maḏai, and Yawan, and Tuḇal, and Mesheḵ, and Tiras. (Genesis
10:3) And the sons of Gomer:
Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Toḡarmah. (Genesis 10:4) And the sons of Yawan: Elishah and Tarshish,
Kittim and Doḏanim. (Genesis 10:5) from these
the coast land peoples of the nations were separated into their lands, everyone
according to his language, according to their clans, into their nations. (Genesis 10:6)
And the sons of Ḥam: Kush, and Mitsrayim, and Put, and Kenaʽan. (Genesis 10:7) and the sons of Kush: Seḇa, and Ḥawilah,
and Saḇtah, and Raʽmah, and Saḇteḵa. And the sons of Raʽmah: Sheḇa and Deḏan.
(Genesis 10:8) And Kush brought forth Nimroḏ,
he began to be a mighty one on the earth. (Genesis
10:9) He was a mighty hunter
before יהוה, therefore it
is said, “Like Nimroḏ the mighty hunter before יהוה.”
(Genesis 10:10)
And the beginning of his reign was Baḇel, and Ereḵ, and Akkaḏ, and
Kalnĕh, in the land of Shinʽar. (Genesis 10:11)
from that land he went to Ashshur and built Ninewĕh, and Reḥoḇoth Ir, and
Kelaḥ, (Genesis 10:12) and Resen between Ninewĕh
and Kelaḥ, the great city. (Genesis 10:13) And Mitsrayim brought forth Luḏim, and
Anamim, and Lehaḇim, and Naphtuḥim, (Genesis 10:14)
and Pathrusim, and Kasluḥim, from whom came the Philistines and Kaphtorim. (Genesis 10:15)
And Kenaʽan brought forth Tsiḏon his first-born, and Ḥĕth, (Genesis 10:16) and the Yeḇusite, and the Amorite,
and the Girgashite, (Genesis 10:17) and the Ḥiwwite,
and the Arqite, and the Sinite, (Genesis 10:18)
and the Arwaḏite, and the Tsemarite, and the Ḥamathite. And afterward the
clans of the Kenaʽanites were spread abroad. (Note: these are the five cities
of the plains that were destroyed by brimstone-) (Genesis 10:19)
And the border of the Kenaʽanites was from Tsiḏon as you go toward
Gerar, as far as Azzah, as you go toward Seḏom, and Amorah, and Aḏmah,
and Tseḇoyim, as far as Lasha. (Genesis
10:20) These were the sons of Ḥam,
according to their clans, according to their languages, in their lands, in
their nations. (Genesis 10:21) And also to Shĕm, the father of all the
children of Ěḇer, the brother of Yepheth the elder, children were born.
(Genesis 10:22)
The sons of Shĕm: Ěylam, and Asshur, and Arpaḵshaḏ, and Luḏ, and
Aram. (Genesis 10:23) And the sons of Aram: Uts, and Ḥul, and
Gether, and Mash. (Genesis 10:24) And Arpaḵshaḏ brought forth Shelaḥ, and
Shelaḥ brought forth Ěḇer. (Genesis 10:25) And to Ěḇer were born two sons, the name of
one was Peleḡ, for in his days the earth was divided, and his brother’s name
was Yoqtan. (Genesis 10:26) And Yoqtan brought forth Almoḏaḏ, and
Sheleph, and Ḥatsarmaweth, and Yeraḥ, (Genesis
10:27) and Haḏoram, and Uzal, and Diqlah, (Genesis
10:28) and Oḇal, and Aḇima’ĕl, and Sheḇa, (Genesis
10:29) and Ophir, and Ḥawilah, and Yoḇaḇ. All these were sons of
Yoqtan. (Genesis 10:30) And their dwelling place was from Mĕysha as
you go toward Sephar, a mountain of the east. (Genesis
10:31) These were the sons of
Shĕm, according to their clans, according to their languages, in their lands,
according to their nations. (Genesis 10:32) These were the clans of the sons of Noaḥ,
according to their generations, in their nations. And from these the nations
were divided on the earth after the flood.
Scattered and confused for
disobedience
(Genesis
11:1) And all the earth had one language 1 and one speech. Footnote: 1 Hebrews lip (Genesis 11:2) And it came to be, as they set out
from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinʽar 1, and they dwelt there. Footnote:
1 Earlier name for Baḇel (Genesis
11:3) And they said to each other, “Come, let us make bricks and bake
them thoroughly.” And they had brick for stone, and they had asphalt for
mortar. (Genesis 11:4) And they said, “Come, let us build ourselves
a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens, and make a name for ourselves,
lest we be scattered over all the face of the earth.” (Genesis
11:5) Then יהוה came down to
see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built. (Genesis 11:6)
And יהוה said, “Look, they are one people and they
all have one language, and this is what they begin to do! And now, they are not
going to be withheld from doing whatever they plan to do. (Genesis 11:7)
“Come, let Us go there and confuse their language, so that they do not
understand one another’s speech.” (Genesis 11:8) And יהוה
scattered them from there, over the face of all the earth and they left off
building the city. (Genesis 11:9) That is why its name was called Baḇel 1, because there יהוה confused the language of all the earth, and from there יהוה scattered them over the face of all the
earth. Footnote: 1 Baḇel is derived from a
verb which means “to confuse". (Genesis
11:10) This is the genealogy of
Shĕm: Shĕm was a hundred years old and brought forth Arpaḵshaḏ, two years
after the flood. (Genesis 11:11) And after he brought forth Arpaḵshaḏ, Shĕm
lived five hundred years, and brought forth sons and daughters. (Genesis 11:12)
And Arpaḵshaḏ lived thirty-five years, and brought forth Shelaḥ. (Genesis 11:13)
And after he brought forth Shelaḥ, Arpaḵshaḏ lived four hundred and
three years, and brought forth sons and daughters. (Genesis
11:14) And Shelaḥ lived thirty
years, and brought forth Ěḇer. (Genesis 11:15) And after he brought forth Ěḇer, Shelaḥ
lived four hundred and three years, and brought forth sons and daughters. (Genesis 11:16)
And Ěḇer lived thirty-four years, and brought forth Peleḡ. (Genesis 11:17)
And after he brought forth Peleḡ, Ěḇer lived four hundred and thirty
years, and brought forth sons and daughters. (Genesis
11:18) And Peleḡ lived thirty
years, and brought forth Reʽu. (Genesis 11:19)
And after he brought forth Reʽu, Peleḡ lived two hundred and nine years, and
brought forth sons and daughters. (Genesis 11:20) And Reʽu lived thirty-two years, and brought
forth Seruḡ. (Genesis 11:21) And after he brought forth Seruḡ, Reʽu lived
two hundred and seven years, and brought forth sons and daughters. (Genesis 11:22)
And Seruḡ lived thirty years, and brought forth Naḥor. (Genesis 11:23)
And after he brought forth Naḥor, Seruḡ lived two hundred years, and
brought forth sons and daughters. (Genesis 11:24) And Naḥor lived twenty-nine years, and
brought forth Teraḥ. (Genesis 11:25) And after he brought forth Teraḥ, Naḥor
lived one hundred and nineteen years, and brought forth sons and daughters. (Genesis 11:26)
And Teraḥ lived seventy years, and brought forth Aḇram, Naḥor, and
Haran. (Genesis 11:27) And this is the genealogy of Teraḥ: Teraḥ
brought forth Aḇram, Naḥor, and Haran. And Haran brought forth Lot. (Genesis 11:28)
And Haran died before his father Teraḥ in the land of his birth, in Ur
of the Chaldeans. (Genesis 11:29) And Aḇram and Naḥor took wives: the name of
Aḇram’s wife was Sarai, and the name of Naḥor’s wife, Milkah, the daughter of
Haran the father of Milkah and the father of Yiskah. (Genesis
11:30) And Sarai was barren, she
had no child. (Genesis 11:31) And Teraḥ took his son Aḇram and his
grandson Lot, son of Haran, and his daughter-in-law Sarai, his son Aḇram’s
wife, and they went out with them from Ur of the Chaldeans to go to the land of
Kenaʽan. And they came to Ḥaran and dwelt there. (Genesis
11:32) And the days of Teraḥ
came to be two hundred and five years, and Teraḥ died in Ḥaran.
YHYWH our redeemer- In the beginning was the word; the word was with YHWH and
was…
(Isaiah
54:1) “Sing, O barren one, you who did not bear!
Break forth into singing, and cry aloud, you who have not been in labor! For
the children of the deserted one are more than the children of the married
woman,” said יהוה. (Isaiah 54:2) “Enlarge the place of your tent, and let them
stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, spare not. Lengthen your cords, and
strengthen your stakes. (Isaiah 54:3) “For you shall break forth to the right and
to the left, and your seed inherit the nations, and make the deserted cities
inhabited. (Isaiah 54:4) “Do not fear, for you shall not be put to
shame, nor hurt, you shall not be humiliated. For the shame of your youth you
shall forget, and not remember the reproach of your widowhood any more. (Isaiah 54:5)
“For your Maker is your
husband, יהוה of hosts is His Name, and the Set-apart
One of Yisra’ĕl is your Redeemer.
He is called the Elohim of all the earth. (Isaiah
54:6) “For יהוה
has called you like a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, like a wife of
youth when you were refused,” declares your Elohim. (Isaiah
54:7) “For a little while I have
forsaken you, but with great compassion I shall gather you. (Isaiah 54:8)
“In an overflow of wrath I hid my face from you for a moment, but with
everlasting kindness I shall have compassion on you,” said יהוה, your Redeemer. (Isaiah 54:9) “For this is the waters of Noaḥ to Me, in
that I have sworn that the waters of Noaḥ would never again cover the earth,
so have I sworn not to be wroth with you, nor to rebuke you. (Isaiah 54:10)
“For though the mountains be removed and the hills be shaken, my
kindness is not removed from you, nor is my covenant of peace shaken,” said יהוה, who has compassion on you. (Isaiah 54:11)
“O you afflicted one, tossed with storm, and not comforted, see, I am
setting your stones in antimony, and shall lay your foundations with sapphires,
(Isaiah 54:12) and shall make your battlements
of rubies, your gates of crystal, and all your walls of precious stones, (Isaiah 54:13) and all your children taught by יהוה, and the peace of your children great. (Isaiah 54:14)
“In righteousness you shall be
established – far from oppression, for you shall not fear, and far
from ruin, for it does not come near you. (Isaiah
54:15) “See, they shall indeed
assemble, but not because of me. Whoever shall assemble against you falls for
your sake! (Isaiah 54:16) “See, I myself have created the blacksmith
who blows the coals in the fire, who brings forth an instrument for his work.
And I have created the waster to destroy. (Isaiah
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. (Isaiah 55:1) “Oh everyone who thirsts, come to the waters.
And you who have no silver, come, buy and eat. Come; buy wine and milk without
silver and without price. (Isaiah 55:2) “Why do you weigh out silver for what is not
bread, and your labor for what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat
what is good, and let your being delight itself in fatness. (Isaiah 55:3) “Incline
your ear, and come to me. Hear, so that your being lives. And let me make an
everlasting covenant with you, the trustworthy kindnesses of Dawiḏ. (Isaiah 55:4) “See, I have given Him as a witness to the
people, a Leader and a Commander for the people. (Isaiah
55:5) “See, a nation you do not
know you shall call, and a nation who does not know you run to you, because of יהוה your Elohim,
and the Set-apart One of Yisra’ĕl, for He has adorned you.” (Isaiah 55:6)
Seek יהוה while He is to be
found, call on Him while He is near. (Isaiah 55:7) Let the wrong forsake his way, and the
unrighteous man his thoughts. Let him return to יהוה,
who has compassion on him, and to our Elohim, for He pardons much. (Isaiah 55:8)
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,” declares יהוה. (Isaiah 55:9) “For as the heavens are higher than the
earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your
thoughts. (Isaiah 55:10) “For as the rain comes down, and the snow
from the heavens, and do not return there, but water the earth, and make it
bring forth and bud, and give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, (Isaiah 55:11) so is My Word that goes forth from My mouth – it does not
return to Me empty, but shall do what I please, and shall certainly accomplish
what I sent it for. (Isaiah 55:12) “For with joy you go out, and with peace you
are brought in – the mountains and the hills break forth into singing before
you, and all the trees of the field clap the hands. (Isaiah
55:13) “Instead of the thorn the
cypress comes up, and instead of the nettle the myrtle comes up. And it shall
be to יהוה for a name, for an everlasting sign which
is not cut off.”
Our Passover Lamb Reigns! He
laid down His life- WILLINGLY!
(1Peter
3:18) Because even Messiah once suffered for sins,
the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to Elohim,1 having been put to death indeed in flesh but
made alive in the Spirit, Footnote: 1 Rom.
5:18. (1Peter 3:19) in which also He went and proclaimed unto the
spirits in prison, (1Peter 3:20) who were disobedient at one time when the
patience of Elohim waited in the days of Noaḥ,
while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight beings, were
saved through water, (1Peter 3:21) which figure now also saves us: immersion –
not a putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good
conscience toward Elohim – through the resurrection of יהושע Messiah, (1Peter 3:22)
who, having gone into heaven, is at the right hand of Elohim,
messengers and authorities and powers having been subjected to Him.
Loved One, here is how we shall have victory (or not) in
these fiery trials approaching planet earth- you are aware of the earth
changes- and now the military police state (Jade 15).
Revelation 12:11) “And they overcame him
(hasatan) because of the Blood of the
Lamb, and because of the Word
of their witness (Confession- testimony it is actually what we live and
what we speak), and they did not love their lives to the death. Please Loved
One; understand that doctrine
of Yahshua is DOING, not
understanding mentally only. Not believing only; this is derived from Greek
culture but DOING which is from Hebrews culture. Note: (James
2:19) you believe that Elohim is one. You do well. The demons also
believe – and shudder! Saying we believe won’t make us Israel His chosen
treasure- but doing shows our love for Him! With that reminder – Have a blessed
Passover and please, please- Do yourself a favor and stay away from Easter
eggs. (Revelation 3:5) He that overcomes, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not
blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before
my Father, and before his angels. Let’s
remain grafted in by choosing a life of love- OBEDIENCE!
Loved One, I pray you have a blessed Passover and a
time of checking ourselves for leaven (SIN) this week as we remove all bread
and leaven from our houses and lives! Also, so that we are not judged by our
Heavenly Father that we may truly JUDGE OURSELVES! 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! 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! Thanks for your continued prayers for us-
they are cherished- and I thank you! Thank you! And THANK YOU! You really are cherished and much loved!
Shalom to your heart and home Loved One!

Passover
Tonight- Saturday April 4th @ Sundown!
About
our Torah Cycle start date…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, 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
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:
1 John 4:22.
