Shabbat Shalom Loved
One!
Sorry today’s Shabbat
study is so late—we are travelling internationally and there are no easily
accessible internet connections. This study is attached for ease of print and

Torah Studies with 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- explanation is
continued at end of this week’s study…
Manifesting as sons and daughters- we are learning
to walk in the Spirit and not the natural or flesh realm!
Romans 8:1 There is, then, now no condemnation to those who
are in Messiah יהושע, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the
Spirit. Romans
8:2 For the Torah of the Spirit of the life in Messiah יהושע has set me
free from the law of sin and of death. Romans 8:3
For the Torah being powerless, in that it was weak through the flesh, Elohim,
having His own Son in the likeness of flesh of sin, and concerning sin,
condemned sin in the flesh, Romans 8:4 so that
the righteousness of the Torah should be completed in us who do not walk
according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. Romans
8:5 for those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the matters
of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the matters
of the Spirit. Romans 8:6 for the mind of
the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace. Romans 8:7 because the mind of the flesh is enmity
towards Elohim, for it does not subject itself 1
o the Torah of Elohim 2, neither
indeed is it able, Footnotes: 1 Or does
not obey. 2 John 15:5, 1 John 4:4, 1 John 3:9, 1 John 5:18. Romans 8:8 and those
who are in the flesh are unable to please Elohim. Romans
8:9 But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit
of Elohim dwells in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Messiah,
this one is not His. Romans 8:10 And if Messiah is in you, the body is truly
dead on account of sin, but the Spirit is life on account of righteousness. Romans 8:11
And if the Spirit of Him who raised יהושע from the dead dwells in you, He who raised
Messiah from the dead shall also give life to your mortal bodies through His
Spirit dwelling in you.
Romans 8:12 so then, brothers, we are not
debtors to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. Romans 8:13 for if you live according to the flesh, you
are going to die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body,
you shall live. Romans 8:14 As many as are led by the Spirit
of Elohim, these are sons of Elohim. Romans
8:15 you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you
received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” Romans 8:16
The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of
Elohim, Romans 8:17 and if children, also heirs
– truly heirs of Elohim, and co-heirs with Messiah, if indeed we suffer with
Him, in order that we also be exalted together.
Romans 8:18 For
I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with
the esteem that is to be revealed in us. Romans
8:19 the intense longing 1 of the creation eagerly waits
for the revealing of the sons of Elohim. Footnote:
1 Literal anxiously looking with outstretched head. Romans 8:20 for the creation was subjected to
futility, not from choice, but because of Him who subjected it, in
anticipation, Romans 8:21 that the creation
itself also shall be delivered from the bondage to corruption into the esteemed
freedom of the children of Elohim. Romans
8:22 for we know that all the creation groans together,
and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now. Romans 8:23 And not only so, but even we
ourselves who have the first-fruits of the Spirit, we ourselves also groan
within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.
Like Elijah; as sons and daughters- made in the image of our
Heavenly Father- we can all walk in effective fervent prayer - as Righteous
Ones- because being covered in His blood we are manifesting as sons and
daughters of the Living Elohim! As we draw nearer to our King purposely, our intimate
heart felt prayer will also avail much!
Remember several years
ago I shared a story about being bitten on my foot and being crippled from the
bite. I remind you of the prophetic
revelation my friend Clay had. He called
to tell after wrestling with YHWH all day that the reason I was bit on the foot
and ear was I was leaving doors open for hasatan to strike! YIKES I thought…so
what are these doors? He replied, “Your foot speaks of turning the wrong
direction and your ear declares you are not hearing Him correctly for some
reason as you are being IMPATIENT (Jumping ahead in what I thought was obedience
before I had a fuller understanding of His instructions)
I was somewhat surprised
and prayed and asked YHWH to reveal understanding to me. I received nothing for
2 days. I was finishing a 10 day fast and approximately 3 hours after that fast
finished, I heard distinctly from Heaven! Falling asleep; here’s what I was
told as I had my pillows under my leg trying to remove the pain; “Turn back the other direction!” (This made no sense to me as I had just
turned to my right to try and get some pain relief- but I did as told quickly-
only within 30 seconds to forget completely and turn back and try and get more comfortable
and remove pain.) SO- did I really obey? NOPE- I totally had turned the
wrong way again- now surprisingly to me this happened 3 times- with me doing
the same thing each time- not even aware of my blunders- at which point YHWH
spoke and lovingly taught me the meaning of the prophetic utterance from my
friend:
“Son, I have
taught you much and you quickly obey- but soon forget and turn based on what
you see and feel. You teach correctly that if people do not obey me they have
not REALLY heard me at all- so
this is why I shared correction with you- don’t be impatient with Me, I know
what is best and you can trust My Instructions- TORAH- written OR spoken
directly to you- My sheep hear my voice and I am getting you ready for the
fiery trials ahead during the time of Jacob’s Troubles. YOU MUST OBEY ME AND
FEAR NOT- I am with you and will direct your steps; provide for you and use
you both in a mighty way!”
So,
Loved One, hopefully you can use my mistake of not inquiring more diligently
and listening- to make minor adjustments in your own walk with a loving and
merciful King we have! Hallelu-YAH!
Last few weeks we’ve discussed: we need his direction
and power to overcome the supernatural force aligned against us to OVERCOME and
we still do! Remember the importance of not fearing and the provisions
YHWH has made for us to be over comers!
We considered the power of our words agreeing
with Him and how intimacy in worship brings His presence
because He inhabits the praises of His people and lastly we must continue being
filled with His Ruach- trusting in Him for our deliverance:
Psalm
22:3 yet you are set-apart, enthroned on (Inhabit- dwell in the midst of) the praises of Yisra’ĕl. Psalm 22:4 our fathers trusted in you; they trusted,
and you delivered them. Psalm 22:5 they cried to you, and were delivered; they
trusted in you, and were not ashamed.
Obviously spirits of the
enemy hasatan cannot hang around when YHWH is present-it’s just not possible!
He informs us to put on the spirit of praise for the spirit(s) of heaviness- ha
ha- we win by entering His presence! REMEMBER LOVED ONE- YHWH is in control and only allowing trials to determine who His bride is. She (Us) WILL make herself ready.
Daniel
11:32 “And by flatteries he (Anti-Messiah) shall profane those who
do wrong against the covenant, but the people who know their Elohim shall be
strong, and shall act (DO EXPLOITS in several versions of the
Bible). Daniel 11:33 “And those of the
people who have insight shall give understanding to many. And they shall
stumble by sword and flame, by captivity and plundering, for days. Daniel 11:34 “And when they stumble, they shall be
helped, a little help, but many shall join them, by flatteries. Daniel 11:35 “And some of those who have insight
shall stumble, to refine them, and
to cleanse them, and to make them white, until the time of the end, for it
is still for an appointed time.
Our
Three Destinies approach and we choose to make ourselves ready as the Bride or
not
Revelation 13:9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear. Revelation 13:10 He who brings into captivity
shall go into captivity, he who kills with the sword has to be killed
with the sword. Here is the endurance and the belief of the set-apart
ones.
1.
If we promote others
into captivity to protect ourselves---we go into captivity
2.
If we kill by weapons we
shall be killed by weapons
3.
We can escape and endure
by faith and trust as we hear and obey- believing Him
“DOING” the Gospel! Keeping His word patiently at
the forefront of our thoughts and tongues!
Doing the
Gospel has taken on new and special meaning for me. Over the span of 2 weeks I
have had three incredible visions- where my daughter (Who is in Heaven) was frantically warning and instructing me…DAD-
DO THE GOSPEL---4 times repeated! Funny- I thought I was—but much is required
from whom much is forgiven. Oh HalleluYAH!
(Revelation 3:10) 'Because you have kept the word of my perseverance, I also
will keep you from the hour of testing, (Comment: not a pre-tribulation rapture- but His assurance and
protection through the storms) that hour which is
about to come upon the
whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth. (Revelation 3:11) 'I am coming quickly;
hold fast what you have, so that no one will take your crown. (Revelation 3:12)
'He
who overcomes, I will make him a pillar
in the temple of my Elohim, and he will not go out from it anymore; and I will
write on him the name of my Elohim, and the name of the city of my Elohim, the
new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from my Elohim, and my new name. (Revelation 3:13)
'He who has an ear, let him hear what the Ruach
HaKodesh says to the assemblies.'
(This
is not a pre-tribulation rapture, He promises to protect and use us even in the
fiery furnace- so let’s be usable!) Loved
One, who are we really? Were we really born for such a time as this? Is
this really the “End of the Age”? These
questions are being answered by unfolding events and by our testimony- that is what we say
and what we
do about these unfolding events.
We shall overcome by the Blood of the Lamb of YHWH and our
Testimony or not overcome at all. All Creation is groaning for the sons and
daughters of YHWH to manifest. Seems we will be tried by fire to see if we will
walk by His Ruach (Spirit) or not.
Why is it so important that you and I overcome
our fears and trials?
(Revelation 21:7) He that overcomes
shall inherit all things; and I will be his Elohim, and he shall be my son. (Revelation 21:8)
But the fearful, and unbelieving,
and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers,
and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake
which burns with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
We are not
under condemnation Loved One- hasatan alone is condemned and he purposes
to put on us- the death and condemnation pronounced on him…
Are we fearful? YHWH did not give us a spirit of fear… (2 Timothy 1:7) For Elohim has not given us a spirit of
cowardice (Fear), but of power and of love and of self-control (Sound mind).
We must clean up and
make ourselves ready as His BRIDE and allow Him to make us who were once DRY
BONES to become the restored! We cannot follow
those of various religious systems who are described here as this sounds a lot
like modern Churchianity: (Ezekiel 22:26)
"Her priests have done
violence to my law (Torah/Instructions) and have
profaned my holy things; they have made no distinction between the holy and the
profane, and they have not taught the difference between the unclean and the
clean; and they hide their eyes from my Sabbaths, and I am profaned
among them.” (He said MY
Sabbaths- seems we can’t pick our own)
We realize that He knows
our thoughts, which become words which become actions- we must guard our
thoughts and bring them into subjection to the word of Yahweh!
(Revelation 3:15) 'I know your deeds,
which you are neither cold nor hot; I wish that you were cold or hot. (Revelation 3:16)
'Because
you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold; I’ll spit you out of my mouth. (Revelation 3:17)
'Because you say, "I am rich, and have
become wealthy, and have need of nothing," and you do not know that you
are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked, (Revelation 3:18)
I advise
you to buy from me gold refined by fire (faith-believing-
which is true riches) so that you may become rich, and white garments (Pure and undefiled robes of righteousness)
so that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness will not be revealed; and eye
salve (spiritual eyes opened) to
anoint your eyes so that you may see. (Revelation 3:19)
'Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline;
therefore be zealous and repent. (Revelation
3:20) 'Behold,
I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I
will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with me. (Revelation 3:21)
'He
who overcomes, I will grant to him to
sit down with me on my throne, as I also overcame and sat down with my Father
on His throne.
It is our destiny to
seek Him with all our hearts, soul, and body and walk in His glory realm; His
mercy, compassion, provision, protection and power! (Jeremiah 29:11)
‘For I know the plans I am planning for you,’ declares יהוה, ‘plans of
peace and not of evil, to give you a future and expectancy. (Jeremiah 29:12)
‘Then you shall call on me,
and shall come and pray to me, and I shall listen to you. (Jeremiah 29:13)
‘And you shall seek me, and
shall find me, when you search for me with all
your heart 1. Footnote: 1 Deuteronomy 4:29, Joel 2:12. (Jeremiah 29:14)
‘And
I shall be found by you,’ declares יהוה, ‘and I shall
turn back your captivity, and shall gather you from all the gentiles and from
all the places where I have driven you, declares יהוה. And I shall
bring you back to the place from which I have exiled you.’ (Genesis 13:17) "Arise, walk about the land through its
length and breadth; for I will give it to you." (Ephesians
5:14) That is why He says, “Arise, wake up you who sleep, and arise
from the dead, and Messiah shall shine on you.” (Isaiah
60:1) “Arise and shine, for your light has come! And the esteem (glory) of יהוה has risen upon
you.
Again, remember all things are possible for
YHWH, the only
reason they aren’t for you and I is UNBELIEF!
Unbelief or belief is the real
TOPIC in the following Scriptures spoken by Messiah Yahshua! What gets rid of our unbelief? PRAYER AND
FASTING according to Yahshua! Let’s look closer at why we can
believe that statement: (Mark 9:16)
And He asked them, "What are you discussing with
them?" (Mark 9:17) And one of the crowd answered Him,
"Teacher, I brought You my son, possessed with a spirit which makes him
mute; (Mark 9:18) and whenever it seizes him, it slams him to the ground and he foams at the mouth, and grinds his teeth and stiffens
out. I told your disciples to cast it out, and they could not do it." (Mark 9:19) And He *answered them and *said, "O unbelieving generation,
how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him to
me!" (Mark 9:20) They brought the boy to Him. When he saw Him,
immediately the spirit threw him into a convulsion, and falling to the ground,
he began rolling around and foaming at the mouth. (Mark
9:21) And He asked his father, "How long has this been happening to him?"
And he said, "From childhood.
(Mark 9:22) "It has often thrown him both into the
fire and into the water to destroy him. But if you can do anything, take pity
on us and help us!" (Mark 9:23) And Yahshua said to him, “‘if you
can?' All things are possible to him who believes."
(Mark 9:24) Immediately the boy's father cried out and
said, "I do believe; help my unbelief.” (Mark 9:25) When Yahshua saw that a crowd was rapidly
gathering, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, "You deaf and mute spirit, I command you, come out of him and do not
enter him again." (Mark 9:26) After crying out and throwing him into
terrible convulsions, it came out; and the boy
became so much like a corpse that most of them
said, "He is dead!" (Mark 9:27) But Yahshua took him by the hand and raised
him; and he got up. (Mark 9:28) When He came into the
house, His disciples began questioning
Him privately, "Why could we not drive it out?" (Looking in Matthew) (Matthew 17:20)
And יהושע said to them, “Because of
your unbelief, for truly, I say to you, if you
have belief as a mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to
there,’ and it shall move. And no matter shall be impossible for you. (Matthew 17:21)
“But this kind does not go out except through
prayer and fasting.” So the topic is not some great demon, even the head of all
demons must bow to the name. The problem and topic here is unbelief. We get rid of
unbelief by prayer and fasting! Prayer AND
Fasting, not prayer without fasting or fasting without prayer- THESE ARE
YHWH’S POWER TWINS! If we really want our prayers answered we must be willing to do YHWH’s
requirements. If we really care about our loved ones we will seek YHWH’s face
with prayer and fasting and quit worrying…Yahshua promises in Revelation to
throw the fearful (worriers) into hell with the
adulterers, murderers etc. Why? Because, if that is who we become under great
fiery trials we have trusted the power of hasatan to do us harm, more than the
power of YHWH to deliver us! Could this apply to you and me? NOT IF we pray and fast and overcome! So
let’s be busy about our Father’s business and do it! Remember; Yahshua’s instructions are Hebraic
or Hebrew thought. It is not about mental assent like Greek thought. It is
about being a doer of the word and not a hearer only deceiving ourselves. It is
She’mah O’ Israel or HEAR AND OBEY! Let’s learn to fast
and pray and remove our unbelief!
Loved One- it is becoming clear that Jacob’s Trouble (Not
the Jews only trouble-ALL Israel- especially us who claim being grafted in) is approaching all living on the earth. What is it that
you and I desire to accomplish in our short time here on Planet Earth? Is it
fame, wealth, pleasure, more toys and “stuff” or possibly something more
lasting…say eternal? What is worthy of our life’s mission and accomplishment? Will we allow our lives to be
broken and changed into His image by our own choice or will we soon be
pulverized and destroyed leaving nothing- all our worldly accomplishments
burned up leaving nothing but ash? Matthew 21:44 “And he who falls on
this stone (The Word-
Yahshua) shall be broken, 1 but on
whomever it falls, he shall be pulverized.” Footnote:
1 Romans. 8:10 & 13, Colossians 3:5. (Deuteronomy
30:19) “I have called the heavens and the earth as witnesses today
against you: I have set before you life
and death, the blessing and the curse. Therefore you shall choose life, so
that you live, both you and your seed, (Deuteronomy
30:20) to love יהוה your Elohim, to obey His voice, and to cling to Him – for He is
your life and the length of your days – to dwell in the land which יהוה swore to your
fathers, to Aḇraham, to Yitsḥaq, and to Yaʽaqoḇ, to give them.”
Here’s our prayer Yahweh suggests below- Our Words direct
us! Start today
hiding the Word of YHWH in your heart-memorize some Scripture daily! Use this
prayer!
(Luke
21:36) You
watch you therefore and pray always, that you may be accounted worthy to escape
all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Of course the goal would be to
stand unashamed before Yahshua having produced fruit that will remain!
If no man (male or female) can tame the tongue, which yields our direction similar
to a bridle on a horse or a rudder on a ship; how then can our tongue be tamed?
Too many “teachers” putting down others
and building their own kingdoms- which of course will be burned with fire! (Proverbs
18:21) Death and
life are in the power of the tongue, and those loving it eat its fruit.
Summarizing: YHWH knew we could produce no fruit that would remain
apart from Him. (John 15:5) I am the vine, ye
are the
branches: He that abides in me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit:
for without me you can do nothing. (John 15:6) If a man abides not
in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and
cast them into the fire, and they are burned. (John
15:7) If
you abide in me, and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it
shall be done unto you. (John 15:8) Herein is my
Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; so shall you be my disciples. (John 15:9) As the Father hath
loved me, so have I loved you: continue you in my love. (John 15:10) If you keep my
commandments, you shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's
commandments, and abide in His love. John 15:16
you have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained
you, that you should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in my name, he
may give it you. Knowing that we
will produce no fruit that remains on our own, He provided a method for us to
walk in His power and His Spirit- He only requires that we trust Him and yield
our tongues (Direction like a bridle on a
horse or a rudder on a ship) (Acts 1:8) But you (YES this means you and I) shall receive power, after that
the Set Apart Spirit (Holy Spirit) is come upon you:
and you shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in
Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Then immediately after this they all
received a prayer language in Acts 2:4! Listen Loved One, do not think you or I
will produce ANY fruit that will remain apart from His Holy Spirit directing
you- don’t be prideful. Submit (Humble
ourselves) to YHWH and the devil will flee- If we don’t submit our tongues;
hasatan will continue to dominate us. Hint: they spoke as the Spirit gave
utterance- you will have to open your mouth to speak if or most likely when-
you ask Yahshua to give you a supernatural prayer language and baptize you in
His Spirit. Since you are already one of the 10 virgins (born again spiritually) seems natural intelligence to become of
the 5 virgins who have enough oil (power)
to enter the Wedding Feast. Yield and hunger for His help and righteousness
TODAY while He may be found and watch the devil flee as you are FILLED! Whoever
hungers and thirsts for righteousness WILL BE FILLED! Get HUNGRY for Him!
PLEASE CONSIDER CAREFULLY WHO INSTRUCTS YOU IN THESE
MATTERS…we will need this sort of travel in the Last Days! Obviously it is only
for those who DO THE GOSPEL and become very intimate with our KING! BUT, having
said that- Yahweh is no respecter of persons- it is for ALL—or whosoever has a
passion backed by action for our Messiah—draw near while there is still time
Loved One!
Walking in these days
will require we walk like Yahshua walked- in His supernatural, wisdom, love and
power. Consider Dr. Bruce Allen (each 28 min)

Loved One; we really
must review what our study led us to last week- the importance of not
fearing and the provisions YHWH has made for us to be over comers! Last
week we considered the power of our words agreeing with Him
and how intimacy in worship brings His presence because He inhabits the
praises of His people! (Proverbs 18:21) Death and life are in the power
of the tongue, and those loving it eat its fruit.
Fear has no place on the Ruach HaKodesh filled believer-
when it is allowed it comes from trusting in hasatan’s power and the storm to
do evil against us rather than trusting in Mighty YHWH to deliver us! Let’s turn
our hearts to this week’s Torah Cycle:
This week’s Torah Scriptures: MIKETZ “At the End”
Genesis
41:11- 44:17; 1 Kings 3:15- 4:1; 1Kings 7:40-50; 1 Corinthians 2:1-5
(Genesis 41:1)
And it came to be, at the end of two years’ time, that Pharaoh had a
dream, and saw him standing by the river, (Genesis 41:2)
and saw seven cows coming up out of the river, fine looking and fat, and they
fed amongst the reeds, (Genesis 41:3) then saw
seven other cows coming up after them out of the river, ugly and lean of flesh,
and stood by the other cows on the bank of the river. (Genesis
41:4) And the ugly and lean of
flesh cows ate up the seven fine looking and fat cows. Then Pharaoh awoke. (Genesis 41:5)
And he slept and dreamed a second time and saw seven heads of grain
coming up on one stalk, plump and good, (Genesis 41:6) and saw seven lean heads, scorched by the
east wind, coming up after them. (Genesis 41:7) And the seven lean heads swallowed the seven
plump and complete heads. Then Pharaoh awoke and saw it was a dream. (Genesis 41:8)
And it came to be in the morning that his spirit was moved, and he sent
and called for all the magicians of Mitsrayim and all its wise men. And Pharaoh
related to them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them for
Pharaoh. (Genesis 41:9) Then the chief cupbearer spoke to Pharaoh,
saying, “I remember my crimes this day. (Genesis
41:10) “When Pharaoh was wroth
with his servants, and put me in confinement in the house of the captain of the
guard, both me and the chief baker, (Genesis 41:11)
each one of us dreamed a dream in one night, him and me. Each of us dreamed
according to the interpretation of his own dream. (Genesis
41:12) “And there was with us a
Heḇrew youth, a servant of the
captain of the guard. And we related to him, and he interpreted our dreams for
us. To each man he interpreted according to his own dream. (Genesis 41:13)
“And it came to be, as he interpreted for us, so it came to be. He
restored me to my office, and he hanged him.” (Genesis
41:14) Then Pharaoh sent and
called Yosĕph, and they hurriedly brought him out of the dungeon. And he shaved
and changed his garments, and came to Pharaoh. (Genesis
41:15) And Pharaoh said to
Yosĕph, “I have dreamed a dream, and there is no one to interpret it. Now I
myself have heard it said of you that you understand a dream, to interpret it.”
(Genesis 41:16)
And Yosĕph answered Pharaoh, saying, “It is not in me; let Elohim answer
Pharaoh with peace.” (Genesis 41:17) And Pharaoh said to Yosĕph, “See, in my dream
I stood on the bank of the river (Genesis 41:18)
and saw seven cows coming up out of the river, fine looking and fat, and they
fed amongst the reeds, (Genesis 41:19) then saw seven other cows coming up after
them, poor and very ugly and lean of flesh, such ugliness as I have never seen
in all the land of Mitsrayim. (Genesis 41:20) “And the lean of flesh and ugly cows ate up
the first seven, the fat cows. (Genesis 41:21) “Yet when they had eaten them up, no one
would have known that they had eaten them, for they were as ugly as at the
beginning. Then I awoke. (Genesis 41:22) “Also, I looked in my dream and saw seven
heads coming up on one stalk, complete and good, (Genesis
41:23) then saw seven heads,
withered, lean, scorched by the east wind, coming up after them. (Genesis 41:24)
“And the lean heads swallowed the seven good heads. And I spoke to the
magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me.”
Dreams are still prophetic – ask the Ruach (Spirit) to guide you
into all truth! One thing I have recently learned- if –
you and I when we go to bed will think on Scripture and Yahshua- we will have
more and more dreams and visions to gain insight!
(Genesis 41:25) And Yosĕph said to Pharaoh, “The dream of
Pharaoh is one. Elohim has shown Pharaoh what He is about to do: (Genesis 41:26) “The seven good cows are seven years,
and the seven good heads are seven years – it is one dream. (Genesis 41:27)
“And the seven lean and ugly cows which came up after them are seven
years, and the seven empty heads scorched by the east wind are seven years of
scarcity of food. (Genesis 41:28) “This is the word which I spoke to Pharaoh:
Elohim has shown Pharaoh what He is about to do. (Genesis
41:29) “See, seven years of great
plenty are coming in all the land of Mitsrayim, (Genesis
41:30) but after them seven years
of scarcity of food shall arise and all the plenty be forgotten in the land of
Mitsrayim. And the scarcity of food shall destroy the land, (Genesis 41:31) and the plenty shall not be
remembered in the land, because of the scarcity of food following, for it is
very severe. (Genesis 41:32) “And the dream was repeated to Pharaoh twice
because the word is established by Elohim, and Elohim is hastening to do it. (Genesis 41:33)
“And now, let Pharaoh look for a discerning and wise man, and set him
over the land of Mitsrayim. (Genesis 41:34) “Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint
overseers over the land, to take up one-fifth of the land of Mitsrayim in the
seven years of plenty. (Genesis 41:35) “And let them gather all the food of those
good years that are coming, and store up grain under the hand of Pharaoh, and
let them keep food in the cities. (Genesis 41:36) “And the food shall be for a store for the
land for the seven years of scarcity of food which shall be in the land of
Mitsrayim, and do not let the land be cut off by the scarcity of food.” (Genesis 41:37)
And the word was good in the eyes of Pharaoh and in the eyes of all his
servants. (Genesis 41:38) And Pharaoh said to his servants, “Could we
find another like him, a man in whom is the Spirit of Elohim?” (Genesis 41:39)
Then Pharaoh said to Yosĕph, “Since Elohim has shown you all this, there
is no one as discerning and wise as you. (Genesis
41:40) “Be over my house, you
yourself, and at your mouth all my people shall kiss – only in the throne I am
greater than you.” (Genesis 41:41) And Pharaoh said to Yosĕph, “See, I have set
you over all the land of Mitsrayim.” (Genesis 41:42) And Pharaoh took his seal-ring off his hand
and put it on Yosĕph’s hand. And he dressed him in garments of fine linen and
put a gold chain around his neck. (Genesis 41:43) And he had him ride in the second chariot
which he had. And they cried out before him, “Bow the knee!” And he set him
over all the land of Mitsrayim. (Genesis 41:44) And Pharaoh said to Yosĕph, “I am Pharaoh,
and without a word from you let no man lift his hand or foot in all the
land of Mitsrayim.” (Genesis 41:45) And Pharaoh called Yosĕph’s name Zaphnath-Paʽnĕaḥ. And he gave him as a wife
Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On. And Yosĕph went out over all
the land of Mitsrayim. (Genesis 41:46) Now Yosĕph was thirty years old when he stood
before Pharaoh Sovereign of Mitsrayim. And Yosĕph went out from the presence of
Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Mitsrayim. (Genesis 41:47) And in the
seven years of plenty the ground brought forth generously. (Genesis 41:48)
And he gathered all the food of the seven years which were in the land
of Mitsrayim, and laid up the food in the cities. He laid up in every city the
food of the fields which surrounded them. (Genesis
41:49) Thus Yosĕph gathered very
much grain, as the sand of the sea, until he ceased counting, for it was
without number. (Genesis 41:50) And to Yosĕph were born two sons before the
years of scarcity of food came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah
priest of On, bore to him. (Genesis 41:51) And Yosĕph called the name of the first-born
Menashsheh, “For Elohim has made me forget all my toil and my entire father’s
house.” (Genesis 41:52) And the name of the second he called
Ephrayim, “For Elohim has caused me to bear fruit in the land of my
affliction.” (Genesis 41:53) And the seven years of plenty which were in
the land of Mitsrayim came to an end, (Genesis 41:54) and the seven years of scarcity of food began
to come, as Yosĕph had said. And the scarcity of food was in all lands, but in
all the land of Mitsrayim there was bread. (Genesis
41:55) But when all the land of
Mitsrayim hungered, and the people cried to Pharaoh for bread, Pharaoh said to
all the Mitsrites, “Go to Yosĕph, do whatever he says to you.” (Genesis 41:56)
And the scarcity of food was over all the face of the earth, and Yosĕph
opened all the storehouses and sold to the Mitsrites. And the scarcity of food
was severe in the land of Mitsrayim. (Genesis 41:57) And all the earth came to Yosĕph in Mitsrayim
to buy grain, because the scarcity of food was severe in all the earth.
YHWH always has direction for PROVISION and RESTORATION!
(Genesis 42:1)
And when Yaʽaqoḇ
saw that there was grain in Mitsrayim, Yaʽaqoḇ
said to his sons, “Why
do you look at each other?”
(Genesis 42:2)
And he said, “See, I have heard that there is grain in Mitsrayim. Go
down to that place and buy for us there, and let us live and not die.” (Genesis 42:3)
And Yosĕph’s ten brothers went down to buy grain in Mitsrayim. (Genesis 42:4)
But Yaʽaqoḇ
did not send Yosĕph’s brother Binyamin with his
brothers, for he said, “Lest some harm come to him.” (Genesis
42:5) And the sons of Yisra’ĕl
went to buy grain among those who journeyed, for the scarcity of food was in
the land of Kenaʽan. (Genesis 42:6)
And Yosĕph was the governor over the land, he was the one who sold to
all the people of the land. And Yosĕph’s brothers came and bowed down before
him with their faces to the earth. (Genesis 42:7) And Yosĕph saw his brothers and recognized
them, but he acted as a stranger to them and spoke to them harshly, and said to
them, “Where do you come from?” And they said, “From the land of Kenaʽan
to buy food.”
(Genesis 42:8)
So Yosĕph recognized his brothers, but they did not recognize him. (Genesis 42:9)
And Yosĕph remembered the dreams which he had dreamed about them, and
said to them, “You are spies! You have come to see the nakedness of the land!” (Genesis 42:10)
And they said to him, “No, my master, but your servants have come to buy
food. (Genesis 42:11) “We are all one man’s sons, we are
trustworthy, your servants are not spies.” (Genesis
42:12) But he said to them, “No,
but you have come to see the nakedness of the land.” (Genesis
42:13) And they said, “Your
servants are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Kenaʽan.
And see, the youngest is with our father today, and one is no more.” (Genesis 42:14)
And Yosĕph said to them, “It is as I spoke to you, saying, ‘You are
spies!’ (Genesis 42:15) “By this you shall be proven: By the life of
Pharaoh, you do not leave this place unless your youngest brother comes here. (Genesis 42:16)
“Send one of you, and let him bring your brother, while you are kept in
prison. So let your words be proven to see whether there is any truth in you,
or else, by the life of Pharaoh, you are spies!” (Genesis
42:17) And he put them all together
in prison for three days. (Genesis 42:18) Now Yosĕph said to them the third day, “Do
this and live, for I fear Elohim: (Genesis 42:19)
“If you are trustworthy, let one of your brothers be confined to your prison
house, and you, go, bring grain for the scarcity of food of your houses. (Genesis 42:20)
“And bring your youngest brother to me, and let your words be confirmed,
and you do not die.” And so they did. (Genesis 42:21) And they said to each other, “Truly, we are
guilty concerning our brother, for we saw the distress of his life when he
pleaded with us, yet we did not listen, that is why this distress has come upon
us.” (Genesis 42:22) And Re’uḇĕn answered them, saying, “Did I
not speak to you, saying, ‘Do not sin against the boy,’ and you would not
listen? And see, his blood is now required of us.” (Genesis
42:23) And they did not know that
Yosĕph understood them, for he spoke to them through an interpreter. (Genesis 42:24)
And he turned himself away from them and wept, but came back to them and
spoke to them. And he took Shimʽon from them
and bound him before their eyes. (Genesis 42:25) And Yosĕph commanded and they filled their
sacks with grain, also to put back every man’s silver to his sack, and to give
them food for the journey. And thus it was done for them. (Genesis 42:26)
So they loaded their donkeys with the grain and went from there. (Genesis 42:27)
And as one of them opened his sack to give his donkey fodder at the
lodging place, he saw his silver, for there it was in the mouth of his sack! (Genesis 42:28)
And he said to his brothers, “My silver has been returned, and there it
is, in my sack!” And their hearts sank and they were afraid, saying to each other,
“What is this that Elohim has done to us?” (Genesis
42:29) So they came to Yaʽaqoḇ
their father in the land of Kenaʽan and
reported to him all that befell them, saying, (Genesis
42:30) “The man, the master of the land, spoke to us harshly, and took
us for spies of the land. (Genesis 42:31) “But we said to him, ‘We are trustworthy, we
are not spies. (Genesis 42:32) ‘We are twelve brothers, sons of our father.
One is no more, and the youngest is today with our father in the land of Kenaʽan.’ (Genesis
42:33) “And the man, the master of the land, said to us, ‘By this I know
that you are trustworthy: Leave one of your brothers here with me, and take
food for the scarcity of food of your households, and go. (Genesis 42:34)
‘And bring your youngest brother to me, then I know that you are not
spies, but that you are trustworthy – I give your brother to you, and you move
about in the land.’ ” (Genesis 42:35) And it
came to be as they emptied their sacks, that look, the bundle of each man’s
silver was in his sack! And when they and their father saw the bundles of
silver, they were afraid. (Genesis 42:36) And Yaʽaqoḇ
their father said to them, “You
have bereaved me –
Yosĕph
is no more, and Shimʽon is no
more, and you would take Binyamin! All this is against me.” (Genesis
42:37) So Re’uḇĕn spoke to his father, saying,
“Take the lives of my two sons if I do not bring him back to you. Put him in my
hands, and I myself bring him back to you.” (Genesis
42:38) But he said, “My son is
not going down with you, for his brother is dead, and he is left alone. If any
harm should come to him along the way in which you go, then you would bring
down my grey hair with sorrow to the grave.”
Restoration journey comes with obedient sacrifice called
REPENTANCE= TESHUVA!
(Genesis 43:1)
But the scarcity of food was severe in the land. (Genesis 43:2) And it came
to be, when they had eaten up the grain which they had brought from Mitsrayim
that their father said to them, “Go back, buy us a little food.” (Genesis 43:3)
But Yehuḏah spoke to
him, saying, “The man vehemently warned us, saying, ‘You do not see my face
unless your brother is with you.’ ” (Genesis 43:4)
“If you let our brother go with us, we go down and buy you food. (Genesis 43:5)
“But if you do not let him go, we do not go down, because the man said
to us, ‘You do not see my face unless your brother is with you.’ ” (Genesis 43:6) And Yisra’ĕl said, “Why did you do
evil to me to inform the man that you still had another brother?” (Genesis 43:7)
And they said, “The man kept asking about us and our relatives, saying,
‘Is your father still alive? Have you another brother?’ And we informed
him according to these words. How could we know that he would say, ‘Bring your
brother down’?” (Genesis 43:8) And Yehuḏah
said to Yisra’ĕl
his father, “Send the boy with me, and let us arise and go, and live and not
die, both we and you and also our little ones. (Genesis
43:9) “I myself shall stand
guaranty for him – from my hand you are to require him. If I do not bring him
back to you and set him before you, then let me bear the blame forever. (Genesis 43:10)
“For if we had not delayed, truly by now we could have returned this
second time.” (Genesis 43:11) And their father Yisra’ĕl said to them, “If
so, then do this: Take some of the best fruit of the land in your vessels and
bring a present down for the man, a little balm and a little honey, spices and
myrrh, nuts and almonds. (Genesis 43:12) “And take double silver in your hand, and
take back in your hand the silver that was returned in the mouth of your sacks.
It could have been a mistake. (Genesis 43:13) “And take your brother, and arise, go back to
the man. (Genesis 43:14) “And Ěl Shaddai give to you compassion before
the man, so that he shall release your other brother and Binyamin. And I, if I
am bereaved, I am bereaved!” (Genesis 43:15) And the men took that present and Binyamin,
and they took double the amount of silver in their hand, and arose and went
down to Mitsrayim, and stood before Yosĕph. (Genesis
43:16) And Yosĕph saw Binyamin
with them, and said to the one over his house, “Bring the men home, and make a
great slaughter, and prepare, for these men are to eat with me at noon.” (Genesis 43:17)
And the man did as Yosĕph said, and the man brought the men into
Yosĕph’s house. (Genesis 43:18) And the men were afraid because they were
brought into Yosĕph’s house. And they said, “It is because of the silver, which
was put back into our sacks the first time that we are brought in, to throw
himself upon us and fall upon us, to take us as slaves, our donkeys too.” (Genesis 43:19)
So they came near to the man over the house of Yosĕph, and spoke to him
at the door of the house, (Genesis 43:20) and
said, “O my master, we indeed came down the first time to buy food, (Genesis 43:21) but it came to be, when we came to
the lodging place, that we opened our sacks and saw each man’s silver in the
mouth of his sack, our silver in its weight. And we have brought it back in our
hand. (Genesis 43:22) “And we have brought down other silver in our
hands to buy food. We do not know who put our silver in our sacks.” (Genesis 43:23)
But he said, “Peace be with you, do not be afraid. your Elohim and the
Elohim of your father has given you treasure in your sacks – your silver had
come to me!” And he brought Shimʽon out to
them. (Genesis 43:24) And the man brought the men into Yosĕph’s
house and gave them water, and they washed their feet. And he gave their
donkeys fodder. (Genesis 43:25) And they made the present ready for Yosĕph’s
coming at noon, for they heard that they were to eat there. (Genesis 43:26)
And when Yosĕph came home, they brought him the present which was in
their hand, into the house, and bowed down before him to the earth. (Genesis 43:27)
And he asked them about their welfare, and said, “Is your father well,
the old man of whom you spoke? Is he still alive?” (Genesis
43:28) And they said, “Your
servant our father is in good health, he is still alive.” And they bowed their
heads down and did obeisance. (Genesis 43:29) And he lifted his eyes and saw his brother
Binyamin, his mother’s son, and said, “Is this your younger brother of whom you
spoke to me?” And he said, “Elohim show favor to you, my son.” (Genesis 43:30)
And Yosĕph hurried, for his emotions were deeply moved towards his
brother, and he looked for a place to weep, and went into his room and
wept there. (Genesis 43:31) Then he washed his face and came out, and
controlled himself, and said, “Serve the food.” (Genesis
43:32) And they set him a place
by himself, and them by themselves, and the Mitsrites who ate with him by
themselves, for the Mitsrites could not eat food with the Hebrews, for that is
an abomination to the Mitsrites. (Genesis 43:33) And they sat before him, the first-born
according to his birthright and the youngest according to his youth, and the
men looked at each other in astonishment. (Genesis
43:34) And he took portions to
them from before him, but Binyamin’s portion was five times as much as any of
theirs. And they feasted and they drank with him.
REPENTANCE always allows for restoration
(Genesis 44:1)
And he commanded the one over his house, saying, “Fill the men’s sacks
with food, as they are able to bear, and put each man’s silver in the mouth of
his sack. (Genesis 44:2) “And put my cup, the silver cup, in the mouth
of the sack of the youngest, and the silver for his grain.” And he did
according to the word of Yosĕph which he spoke. (Genesis
44:3) As soon as the morning was
light, the men were sent away, they and their donkeys. (Genesis
44:4) And when they had gone out
of the city, not having gone far, Yosĕph said to the one over his house, “Rise
up, follow the men, and when you overtake them, say to them, ‘Why have you
repaid evil for good? (Genesis 44:5) ‘Is this not the one from which my master
drinks, and with which he indeed divines? You have done evil in what you have
done.’ ” (Genesis 44:6) So he overtook them and
spoke these words to them. (Genesis 44:7) And they said to him, “Why does my master say
these words? Far be it from us that your servants should do according to this
word. (Genesis 44:8) “See, we brought back to you from the land of
Kenaʽan the silver which we found in
the mouth of our sacks. How then should we steal silver or gold from your
master’s house? (Genesis 44:9) “With whomever of your servants it is found –
he shall die and we shall become my master’s slaves as well.” (Genesis 44:10)
And he said, “Now also let it be according to your words: he with whom
it is found becomes my slave, and you are innocent.” (Genesis
44:11) And they hurried, each man
let down his sack to the ground, and each opened his sack. (Genesis 44:12)
And he searched, with the oldest first and with the youngest last, and
the cup was found in Binyamin’s sack. (Genesis 44:13) And they tore their garments, and each man
loaded his donkey and went back to the city. (Genesis
44:14) And Yehuḏah
and his brothers came to Yosĕph’s house, and he was still
there. And they fell before him on the ground. (Genesis
44:15) And Yosĕph said to them,
“What deed is this you have done? Did you not know that a man like me indeed
divines?” (Genesis
44:16) And Yehuḏah
said, “What do we say to my master? What do we speak? Or how do we clear
ourselves? Elohim has found out the crookedness of your servants. See, we are
my master’s slaves, both we and he also with whom the cup was found.” (Genesis 44:17)
But he said, “Far be it from me to do this. The man in whose hand the
cup was found, he becomes my slave. And you go up in peace to your father.”
Wisdom is from YHWH! Let everyone ask for wisdom and it will be
given!
(1 Kings 3:15)
And Shelomoh awoke, and see, it was a dream! And he came into
Yerushalayim and stood before the ark of the covenant of יהוה, and offered
up burnt offerings and made peace offerings. And he made a feast for all his
servants. (1 Kings 3:16) Then two women, whores, came to the
sovereign, and stood before him. (1 Kings 3:17) And one woman said, “O my master, this woman
and I dwell in the same house. And I gave birth while she was in the house. (1 Kings 3:18)
“And it came to be, the third day after I had given birth, that this
woman also gave birth. And we were together. There was no one else with us in
the house, only the two of us in the house. (1 Kings
3:19) “Then this woman’s son died
in the night, because she lay on him. (1 Kings 3:20) “And she rose up in the middle of the night
and took my son from my side, while your female servant slept, and laid him in
her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom. (1
Kings 3:21) “And I rose up in the
morning to nurse my son and saw he was dead. But I looked at him closely in the
morning, and saw he was not my son whom I had borne.” (1
Kings 3:22) And the other woman
said, “No! But the living one is my son, and the dead one is your son.” And the
first woman said, “No! For the dead one is your son, and the living one is my
son.” And they spoke before the sovereign. (1 Kings
3:23) And the sovereign said,
“The one says, ‘This is my son, who lives, and your son is the dead one,’ while
the other says, ‘No! For your son is the dead one, and my son is the living
one.’ ” (1 Kings 3:24) and the sovereign said,
“Bring me a sword.” So they brought a sword before the sovereign. (1 Kings 3:25)
And the sovereign said, “Divide the living child in two, and give half
to one, and half to the other.” (1 Kings 3:26) And the woman whose son was living spoke to
the sovereign, for she was overcome with compassion for her son. And she said,
“O my master, give her the living child, and by no means kill him!” But the
other said, “Let him be neither mine nor yours, but divide him.” (1 Kings 3:27)
And the sovereign answered and said, “Give the first woman the living
child, and by no means kill him – she is his mother.” (1
Kings 3:28) And all Yisra’ĕl
heard of the right- ruling which the sovereign had rendered. And they feared
the sovereign, for they saw that the wisdom of
Elohim was in him to do right-ruling. (1 Kings 7:40)
And Ḥiram made the pots and the shovels and the bowls. And
Ḥiram completed doing all the work that he was to do for Sovereign Shelomoh on
the House of יהוה: (1 Kings 7:41) the two columns, and the bowl-shaped capitals
that were on top of the columns, and the two networks covering the two
bowl-shaped capitals which were on top of the columns; (1
Kings 7:42) and the four hundred
pomegranates for the two networks, two rows of pomegranates for each network to
cover the two bowl-shaped capitals that were on top of the columns; (1 Kings 7:43)
and the ten stands, and the ten basins on the stands; (1 Kings 7:44)
and the one Sea, and twelve oxen under the Sea; (1
Kings 7:45) and the pots, and the
shovels, and the bowls. And all these utensils which Ḥiram made for Sovereign
Shelomoh for the House of יהוה were of polished bronze. (1 Kings
7:46) The sovereign had them cast
in clay in the district of Yardĕn between Sukkoth and Tsarethan. (1 Kings 7:47)
And Shelomoh left all the utensils unweighed, because they were
many, nor was the weight of the bronze searched out. (1
Kings 7:48) So Shelomoh made all
the utensils for the House of יהוה: the altar of gold, and the table of gold
on which was the showbread; (1 Kings 7:49) and the lampstands of refined gold, five on
the right side and five on the left in front of the Speaking Place, with the
flowers and the lamps and the snuffers of gold; (1
Kings 7:50) and the basins, and
the snuffers, and the bowls, and the ladles, and the fire holders of refined
gold, and the hinges of gold, both for the doors of the inner house, the Most
Set-apart Place, and for the doors of the house of the Hĕḵal. (1 Kings 7:51)
Thus all the work which Sovereign Shelomoh had done for the House of יהוה was completed.
And Shelomoh brought in the set-apart items of his father Dawiḏ: the
silver and the gold and the utensils, and he put them in the treasuries of the
House of יהוה.
We need to
demonstrate His power of speaking His word as He will watch over His word to
perform it!
(1 Corinthians 2:1)
And, when I came to you, brothers, I did not come with excellence of
speech or wisdom, proclaiming to you the witness of Elohim. (1 Corinthians 2:2)
For I resolved not to know any matter among you except יהושע Messiah and
Him impaled. (1 Corinthians 2:3) And I was with you in weakness, and in fear,
and in much trembling. (1 Corinthians 2:4) And my word and my preaching were not with
persuasive words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the
Spirit and of power, (1 Corinthians 2:5)
in order that your belief should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power
of Elohim.
Like Joseph, we too are becoming manifested
as the sons and daughters of YHWH and will be delivered from all our
afflictions- even future scarcity of food and other distresses! (Act 7:9) “And the ancestors, becoming jealous,
sold Yosĕph into Mitsrayim. But Elohim was with him, (Act 7:10) and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave
him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, sovereign of Mitsrayim. And
he appointed him governor over Mitsrayim and his entire house. (Act 7:11)
“Then a scarcity of food and great distress came over all the land of
Mitsrayim and Kena‘an, and our fathers found no food. (Act
7:12) “But Yaʽaqoḇ
heard that there was grain in Mitsrayim, and he sent out our fathers the first
time, (Act 7:13) and at the second time Yosĕph
was made known to his brothers, and Yosĕph’s race became known to the Pharaoh. (Act 7:14)
“And Yosĕph sent and called his father Yaʽaqoḇ
and all his relatives to him, seventy-five people. (Act
7:15) “And Yaʽaqoḇ
went down to Mitsrayim, and died, he and our fathers, (Act
7:16) and they were brought over
to Sheḵem and laid in the tomb that Aḇraham
bought for a price of silver from the sons of Ḥamor, the father of Sheḵem.
Shalom to your home
Loved One- thank you for your wonderful and targeted prayers for us- your
prayers are a lifeline to the Kingdom! Growth and correction are painful but
vital as we strive to become more like Yahshua and less like us! We MUST
decrease and He must increase in us! My final prayer and hope is that you and I
will NOW draw nearer to our King and even fast and pray (as led by the Ruach)
and OVERCOME our own flesh and rid ourselves of UNBELIEF and have victory overcoming
prayer on all our prayer fronts! This will glorify our Father in
Heaven!

Continued explanation
of the 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.
