Shabbat Shalom
Loved One!
This study is attached for ease of print and study format. YHWH is restoring all things and that includes us who were once DRY BONES! Mighty is He whose mercy endures forever! All who call on His name will be delivered! 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…
Let’s consider
our thoughts family; we probably all agree on some- and may have never even considered
others. Our study will be short as we are traveling internationally just now. Here
are a few we likely agree on:
( ) We must be “born again” spiritually to
discern spiritual matters in truth. 1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural
man does not receive the matters of the Spirit of Elohim, for they are
foolishness to him, and he is unable to know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 1 Corinthians
2:15 But he who is spiritual discerns indeed all matters, but
he himself is discerned by no one.
(2) We, like Queen Ester, probably realize we were
specifically born for this day and age- the final battle between light and
darkness- good and evil- at the end of the age. Esther
4:13
And Mordeḵai commanded them to answer Ester,
“Do not think within yourself to escape in the sovereign’s palace any more than
all the other Yehuḏim. Esther 4:14 “For if you
keep entirely silent at this time, relief and deliverance shall arise for the
Yehuḏim from another place, while you and your father’s house perish. And who knows whether you have come to the reign for such a time as
this?”
(3) We need to have our eyes spiritually opened
and know the hope of our calling to walk in the perfect will and destiny our
Creator made us for. Ephesians 1:15 For this reason I too, having heard of your
belief in the Master יהושע and your love for all the set-apart ones, Ephesians 1:16
do not cease giving thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,
Ephesians 1:17
that the Elohim of our Master יהושע
Messiah, the Father of esteem, would give you a spirit of wisdom and
revelation in the knowledge of Him, Ephesians
1:18 the eyes of your
understanding 1 being enlightened, so that you know what is the
expectation (Hope) of His calling, (His Destiny) and what are the riches of the esteem of His inheritance in the
set-apart ones, Footnote: 1 Luke 24:45.
(4) We should draw very near to our Father and be
about His business and gain His protection, direction, provision, and direction
as He commands His mighty angels about us. James
4:4
Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that
friendship with the world is enmity with Elohim? 1 Whoever
therefore intends to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of Elohim.
Footnote: 1 Matthew 13:22, Luke 4:5-6, Luke
14:33, Romans 12:2, 1 John 2:15-17. James 4:5
or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose? Does the Spirit which
dwells in us intensely crave unto envy? James 4:6
But He gives greater favor. Because of this He says, “Elohim resists the proud,
but gives favor to the humble.” James 4:7 So
then subject yourselves to Elohim. Resist the devil 1
and he shall flee from you. Footnote: 1 or
adversary. James 4:8 Draw near to Elohim and He shall draw near to you. Cleanse
hands, sinners. And cleanse the hearts, you double-minded!
(5) We must be empowered by Yahshua baptizing
us of His Ruach and FIRE to be able to produce and fruit and testimony that
remains. Act 1:8
“But you shall receive power when the Set-apart Spirit has come upon you,
and (Then) you shall be my witnesses in Yerushalayim, and in all Yehuḏah and
Shomeron, and to the end of the earth.”
Luke 3:16 Yoḥanan answered, saying to them all, “I indeed immerse
you in water, but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal straps I am not
worthy to loosen. He shall immerse (Mikveh-baptize)
you in the Set-apart Spirit and fire.
(6) We must learn to agree with His words and
speak them- and not the current “facts” for any lasting victory against the
enemy of our souls. Matthew 12:31 “Because of this I say to you, all sin and blasphemy shall be
forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven men. Matthew 12:32 “And whoever speaks a word against the Son of Aḏam, it shall be forgiven him, but whoever
speaks against the Set-apart Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in
this age or in the age to come. Matthew 12:33 “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make
the tree rotten and its fruit rotten, for a tree is known by its fruit. Matthew 12:34 Brood of
adders! How are you able to speak what is good – being wicked? For the mouth
speaks from the overflow of the heart Matthew 12:35 “The good man brings forth what is good from the good treasures of
his heart, and the wicked man brings forth what is wicked from the wicked
treasure. Matthew
12:36 “And
I say to you that for every
idle word men speak, they shall give an account of it in the Day of
Judgment. Matthew 12:367 “For by your words you shall be
declared righteous, and by your words you shall be declared unrighteous.”
(7) We overcome by the blood of the LAMB and
our testimony- or what we speak and do! Revelation 12:11 and they
overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and
they did not love their lives to the death. Luke 10:18
and He said to them, "I saw Satan fall like
lightning from heaven. Luke 10:19 Behold, I give you the
authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the
enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Luke 10:20 nevertheless do
not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice
because your names are written in heaven."
(8) We
must become truth searchers and change (Repent)
because He changes not- that only leaves us to do the changing to become like
Him! Malachi 3:6 “For I am יהוה, I shall not change1, and you, O sons of Yaʽaqoḇ, shall not come to an end. Footnote: 1 James.
1:17. Hebrews 13:8 יהושע Messiah is the same yesterday,
and today, and forever.
Truth searcher why MUST we be sure we are open minded,
diligently dividing the word of TRUTH and fleeing vain traditions we have
learned from the forefathers of our faith? Yahshua warns us; (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 teachings the commands of men.’ ”1
Footnote: 1 Isaiah 29:13, Mark 7:7, 2 Kings
17:19.
Loved One, we really have inherited lies so great
that is beyond most of our imaginations to believe how deceitful hasatan is and
how we are greatly deceived for the most part. Most of us know by now there is
NO pre-tribulation rapture but our Elohim is mighty and even in the fiery
furnace our loving Creator can and will deliver us who trust Him! I suspect
most of us don’t realize though- how close we are and how bad things will be
and how we ought to be serious and seek Him while He may be found? Yahshua
warned us through Jeremiah (Remember Yahshua is the Word and always will be)
and He will deliver us even in fiery
trials- all He requires is that we believe Him and our actions show it; (Jeremiah 16:19) O יהוה, (Yahweh) my strength and my stronghold
and my refuge, in the day of
distress the gentiles shall come to you from the ends of the
earth and say, “Our fathers have inherited only
falsehood (lies), futility, and there
is no value in them.”1 Footnote: 1 See
Psalms 147:19, Isaiah 2:3, Isaiah 60:2-3, John 4:22, Romans 2:20, Romans 3:2,
Romans 9:4 (Jeremiah 16:20) Would a man make mighty ones for himself,
which are not mighty ones? (Jeremiah 16:21) “Therefore see, I am causing them to know, this
time I cause them to know my hand and my might. And they shall know that My
Name is יהוה!” (YHWH-
Yahweh)
KJV: (Jeremiah 16:19)
O LORD, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of
affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of
the earth, and shall say, surely our fathers have
inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit. (Jeremiah 16:20) Shall a
man make gods unto himself, and they are
no gods? (Jeremiah 16:21) Therefore, behold, I will this once cause
them to know, I will cause them to know mine hand and my might; and they shall
know that my name is The LORD. (YHWH)
Perhaps we have been deceived by religion. My hope
and prayer is that you will not become bitter and angry at YHWH or dismiss the
possibilities of truth presented and not murmur and complain or get fearful-
but that we diligently seek Him who made Heaven and Earth and all created
things- the One who loves us and gave Himself up for us! Here is what Yahshua
warned us concerning these days upon us truth searcher; KJV (Matthew
24:21) then shall be great
tribulation; such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no,
nor ever shall be. (Matthew
24:22) And
except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for
the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. Scriptures (Matthew 24:21) “For then there shall be great distress, 1
such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor
ever shall be. Footnote: 1 Or
great pressure, or great affliction. (Matthew 24:22)
“And if
those days were not shortened, no flesh would be saved, but for the sake of the
chosen ones those days shall be shortened. Here is the shadow picture we can
also expect: (Act 7:11) “Then a scarcity of food and great distress (Famine)
came over all the land of Mitsrayim and Kena‘an, and our fathers found no food.
Loved One, my
prayer continues for you and me today; that we as TRUTH SEARCHERS FEAR NOT and have faith increased to match our
obedience and a willingness to humble ourselves to submit our tongues to the
Holy Spirit and allow Him to guide us into all truth and teach us of things to
come! That our prayers are given thanks for instead of continually asking- that
we show actions that indicate we believe the promises of Yahshua regardless of
the current storms and circumstances! HalleluYAH- that all our loved ones come
into the Kingdom forever! That we not “turn back” but stand diligently and
please YHWH with our trust and faith that we are pleasing Him- so He can bring
deliverance to ALL our loved ones! May they also taste and see the LORD (YHWH)
is good and His mercy endures forever!
As a review; how do we FEAR NOT and hunger and thirst for
righteousness for more intimacy with Him who created all things?
(James 4:7) So then subject (submit/humble) yourselves to Elohim. Resist the devil1 and he shall flee from you. Footnote: 1 Or adversary. (James 4:8) Draw near to
Elohim and He shall draw near to you. Cleanse hands, sinners. And cleanse the
hearts, you double-minded! (James
4:9) Lament and mourn
and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to dejection. (James 4:10) Humble yourselves in the sight of the Master,
and He shall lift you up. You and I must change and receive the engrafted
word of LIFE, (HUMBLE OURSELVES) turn in repentance and OBEY HIM. We can
no longer say we love Him and not do what He says! (Luke 6:46) And why do
you call me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
Do WE
call Him Lord and Master but not obey Him? Are we of those that think His LAW
(Commentary: Law was translated that but it is Torah-Instructions in Hebrew) is
done away with and ALL fulfilled? Hopefully, we will rethink that
position! Is Messiah reigning in Jerusalem? The Spring Feasts alone are fulfilled.
Passover, Feast of Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, and Shavuot were fulfilled
down to the day, hour and minute! He was the Passover Lamb, 3 days later the
High Priest was still in seclusion as was prescribed of the High Priest prior
to offering the thanksgiving for the first fruits of the Earth, when He
said “Don’t touch me Mary, I have not yet ascended to My Father.” He is and was the High Priest! Seven sevens (weeks) later He sent the Ruach HaKodesh
(Holy Spirit) on Shavuot, the anniversary of giving the Torah (Law) at Mt.
Sinai. He came the first time to be Messiah Ben Joseph, the
suffering servant to be the Lamb of YHWH (God)
sacrifice.
He is coming a second
time very soon as Messiah Ben David, the Reigning King! He
will rule His Kingdom from Jerusalem! Is He now ruling? NO. It is not all
fulfilled! Let’s look at what Yahshua said about the Law being done away
with and WHEN this will occur! (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, until heaven and earth pass,
one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, until 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.
Even to us casual observers, heaven and earth have
not passed! Let’s acknowledge that fact as a truth and return to Him as we
study this week’s portion and allow Him to restore ALL things- especially us!
(Jeremiah 30:3) 'For behold, days are coming,' declares
YHWH, 'when I will
restore the
fortunes of my people Israel and Judah.' (Comment: this
means you and I who are grafted into Israel by grace by faith in Yahshua and
are heirs now of Abraham according to the promise) YHWH says, 'I will also
bring them back to the land that I gave to their forefathers and they shall
possess it.'" (Jeremiah 30:16) 'Therefore all who devour you will be
devoured; and all your adversaries, every one of them, will go into captivity;
and those who plunder you will be for plunder, And all who prey upon you I will
give for prey. (Jeremiah 30:17) 'For I will restore you to health and
I will heal you of your wounds,' declares YHWH, 'because they have called
you an outcast, saying: "It is Zion; no one cares for her."' (Jeremiah 30:18) "Thus says YHWH, 'Behold, I will restore the
fortunes of the tents of Jacob and have compassion on his dwelling places;
and the city will be rebuilt on its ruin, and the palace will stand on its
rightful place. (Jeremiah 30:19) 'From them will proceed thanksgiving and
the voice of those who celebrate; and I will multiply them and they will not be
diminished; I will also honor them and they will not be insignificant. (Jeremiah 30:20) 'Their children also will be as formerly, and their
congregation shall be established before me; and I will punish all their
oppressors. (Jeremiah 30:21) 'Their leader shall be one of them, and
their ruler shall come forth from their midst; and I will bring him near and he
shall approach me; for who would dare to risk his life to approach me?'
declares YHWH. (Jeremiah 30:22) 'You shall be my people, and I will
be your Elohim.'"
WE are
the ones addressed below by James- who are dispersed (scattered) for accepting
the pagan worship we inherited- scattered all over the world- we repent to be
RESTORED!
(James 1:1)
Yaʽaqoḇ, a servant of Elohim and of the Master יהושע Messiah, to the twelve
tribes who are in the dispersion
(Scattering around the world):
Greetings. (James 1:2) My brothers, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, (James 1:3) knowing that the proving of your belief (faith-trust) works endurance. (James 1:4)
And let endurance have a perfect work, so that you be perfect and
complete, lacking in naught. (James 1:5) If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of
Elohim, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it shall be given
to him. (James 1:6) But he should ask in belief (faith-trust), not doubting, for he who
doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. (James 1:7)
For that man should not think that he shall receive whatever from the
Master – (James 1:8) he is a double-minded man,
unstable in all his ways. (James 1:9) And let the lowly brother boast in his
exaltation, (James 1:10) but the rich in his
humiliation, because as a flower of the field he shall pass away. (James 1:11)
For the sun rose with burning heat, and withered the grass, and its
flower fell, and its pretty appearance perished. So also the rich man shall
fade away in his ways. (James 1:12) Blessed is the man who does endure trial, for
when he has been proved, he shall receive the crown of life which the Master
has promised to those who love Him. (James 1:13) Let no one say when he is enticed, “I am
enticed by Elohim,” for Elohim is not enticed by evil matters, and He
entices no one. (James 1:14) But each one is enticed when he is drawn away
by his own desires and trapped. (James 1:15) Then, when desire has conceived, it gives
birth to sin. And sin, when it has been accomplished, brings forth death. (James 1:16)
Do not go astray, my beloved brothers. (James
1:17) Every good gift and every
perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom
there is no change, nor shadow of turning.1
Footnote: 1 See Malachi. 3:6. (James 1:18)
Having purposed it, He brought us forth by the Word of truth, for us to
be a kind of first-fruits of His creatures. (James
1:19) So then, my beloved
brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath, (James 1:20) for the wrath of man does not work the
righteousness of Elohim. (James 1:21) Therefore put away all filthiness and
overflow of evil, and receive with meekness the implanted Word,1 which is able to save your lives. Footnote: 1 See Matthew 13:4-23. (James 1:22)
And become doers of the Word,
and not hearers only, 1 deceiving you. Footnote: 1 See Matthew 7:24-27, Luke 6:46-49, Luke 8:21,
Romans 2:13, Hebrews 4:11, Revelation 22:14. (James
1:23) If anyone is a hearer of
the Word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a
mirror, (James 1:24) for he looks at himself,
and goes away, and immediately forgets what he was like. (James 1:25)
But he that looked into the perfect Torah, that of freedom,1 and continues in it, not becoming a
hearer that forgets, but a doer of
work, this one shall be blessed in his doing of the Torah. Footnote: 1 See 2:12. (James 1:26)
If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his
tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is worthless. (VAIN) (James
1:27) Clean and undefiled religion before the Elohim and Father is this:
to visit orphans and widows in their affliction and to keep
ourselves unstained (unpolluted) from the world.
Understanding our WORDS AND ACTIONS must
agree with His from for our witness to be usable and us to be worthy and allowed
to continue our witness- that we produce fruit that remains even in Great
Tribulation- let’s turn our hearts to this week’s Torah
Cycle:
This
week’s Torah Scriptures: Yithro- “Jethro”
Exodus
18:1-20:23; Isaiah 6:1-7:6 & Isaiah 9:5-6; Matthew 5:17-32
Even Jethro; Moses’ father-in-law, who
is a pagan (?) priest exalts YHWH when he sees His mighty acts of deliverance!
(Exodus 18:1)
And Yithro, the priest of Miḏyan, Mosheh’s father-in-law,
heard of all that Elohim had done for Mosheh and for Yisra’ĕl His people, that יהוה had brought Yisra’ĕl out of Mitsrayim. (Exodus
18:2) And Yithro, Mosheh’s
father-in-law, took Tsipporah, the wife of Mosheh – after he had sent her back,
(Exodus 18:3) and her two sons, of whom the
name of one was Gĕreshom, for he said, “I have been a sojourner in a foreign
land,” (Exodus 18:4) and the name of the other
was Eliʽezer, for he said, “The Elohim of my father was my help, and delivered
me from the sword of Pharaoh.” (Exodus 18:5) Yithro, Mosheh’s father-in-law, came with his
sons and his wife to Mosheh in the wilderness, where he was encamped at the
mountain of Elohim. (Exodus 18:6) And he had said to Mosheh, “I, your
father-in-law Yithro, am coming to you with your wife and her two sons with
her.” (Exodus 18:7) And Mosheh went out to meet his
father-in-law, and bowed down, and kissed him. And they asked each other about
their welfare, and they went into the tent. (Exodus
18:8) And Mosheh told his
father-in-law all that יהוה had done to Pharaoh
and to the Mitsrites for Yisra’ĕl’s sake, all the hardship that had come upon
them on the way, and how יהוה had delivered them. (Exodus 18:9)
And Yithro rejoiced for all the good which יהוה had done for Yisra’ĕl, whom He had delivered out of the hand of
the Mitsrites. (Exodus 18:10) And Yithro said, “Blessed be יהוה,
who has delivered you out of the hand of the Mitsrites and out of the hand of
Pharaoh, and who has delivered the people from under the hand of the Mitsrites.
(Exodus 18:11)
“Now I know that יהוה is greater
than all the mighty ones, indeed in the matter in which they acted proudly,
above them.” (Exodus 18:12) Then Yithro, the father-in-law of Mosheh,
brought a burnt offering and other slaughtering unto Elohim. And Aharon came
with all the elders of Yisra’ĕl to eat bread with the father-in-law of Mosheh
before Elohim. (Exodus 18:13) And it came to be, on the next day, that
Mosheh sat to rightly rule the people. And the people stood before Mosheh from
morning until evening. (Exodus 18:14) And when the father-in-law of Mosheh saw all
that he did for the people, he said, “What is this that you are doing for the
people? Why do you sit by yourself, and all the people stand before you from
morning until evening?” (Exodus 18:15) And Mosheh said to his father-in-law,
“Because the people come to me to seek Elohim. (Exodus
18:16) “When they have a matter,
they come to me, and I rightly rule between one and another, and make known the
laws of Elohim and His Torot.” (Exodus 18:17) And the father-in-law of Mosheh said to him,
“What you are doing is not good. (Exodus 18:18) “Both you and these people with you shall
certainly wear yourselves out. For the matter is too heavy for you. You are not
able to do it by yourself. (Exodus 18:19) “Now listen to my voice. Let me counsel you
and Elohim be with you: Stand before Elohim for the people and you shall bring
the matters to Elohim. (Exodus 18:20) “And you shall enlighten them concerning
the laws and the Torot, and show them the way in which they should walk and the
work which they do. (Exodus 18:21) “But you yourself seek out from all the
people able men, who fear Elohim, men of truth, hating unfair gain. And place these
over them to be rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and
rulers of tens. (Exodus 18:22) “And they shall rightly rule the people at
all times. And it shall be that they bring every great matter to you, but they
themselves rightly rule every small matter. So, make it lighter for yourself,
for they shall bear with you. (Exodus 18:23) “If you do this word, and Elohim shall
command you, then you shall be able to stand and this entire people also go to
their place in peace.” (Exodus 18:24) And Mosheh listened to the voice of his
father-in-law and did all that he said. (Exodus 18:25) And Mosheh chose able men out of all
Yisra’ĕl, and made them heads over the people: rulers of thousands, rulers of
hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. (Exodus
18:26) And they rightly ruled the
people at all times – the hard matters they brought to Mosheh, but they rightly
ruled every small matter themselves. (Exodus 18:27) And Mosheh sent off his father-in-law, and he
went away to his own land.
Signs
and Wonders accompany YHWH that command highest honor, obedience and protocol!
(Exodus 19:1)
In the third month after the children of Yisra’ĕl had come out of the
land of Mitsrayim, on this day they came to the Wilderness of Sinai. (Exodus 19:2)
They set out from Rephiḏim, and had come to the
Wilderness of Sinai, and camped in the wilderness. So Yisra’ĕl camped there
before the mountain. (Exodus 19:3) And Mosheh went up to Elohim, and יהוה called
to him from the mountain, saying, “This is what you are to say to the house of
Yaʽaqoḇ, and declare to the children of Yisra’ĕl: (Exodus 19:4) ‘You have seen what I did to the Mitsrites and how I bore you
on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself. (Exodus
19:5) ‘And now, if you diligently obey my voice, and
shall guard my covenant, then you shall be my treasured possession above all
the peoples – for all the earth is mine – (Exodus
19:6) ‘and
you shall be to me a reign of priests and a set-apart nation.’ Those are the
words which you are to speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl.” (Exodus 19:7)
And Mosheh came and called for the elders of the people, and set before
them all these words which יהוה commanded him. (Exodus 19:8)
And all the people answered together and said, “All that יהוה has spoken we shall do.” So Mosheh brought back the words of
the people to יהוה. (Exodus 19:9) And יהוה said to
Mosheh, “See, I am coming to
you in the thick cloud, so that the people hear when I speak with you, and
believe you forever.” And Mosheh reported the words of the people to יהוה. (Exodus 19:10)
And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Go to the people and
set them apart today and tomorrow. And they shall wash their garments,
(Exodus 19:11) and
shall be prepared by the third day. For on the third day יהוה shall come
down upon Mount Sinai before the eyes of all the people. (Exodus 19:12)
“And you shall make a border for the people all
around, saying, ‘Take heed to yourselves that you do not go up to the mountain
or touch the border of it. Whoever touches the mountain shall certainly be put
to death. (Exodus 19:13) ‘Not a hand is to
touch it, but he shall certainly be stoned or shot with an arrow, whether man
or beast, he shall not live.’ When the
trumpet sounds long, let them come near the mountain.” (Exodus 19:14)
And Mosheh came down from the mountain to the people and set the people
apart, and they washed their garments. (Exodus 19:15) And he said to the people, “Be prepared by
the third day. Do not come near a wife.” (Exodus
19:16) And it came to be, on the
third day in the morning, that there were thunders and lightning’s, and a thick
cloud on the mountain. And the sound of the ram’s horn was very loud, and all
the people who were in the camp trembled. (Exodus
19:17) And Mosheh brought the
people out of the camp to meet with Elohim, and they stood at the foot of the
mountain. (Exodus 19:18) And Mount Sinai was in smoke, all of it,
because יהוה descended upon it in fire. And its smoke
went up like the smoke of a furnace, and all the mountain trembled exceedingly.
(Exodus 19:19)
And when the blast of the ram’s horn sounded long and became louder and
louder, Mosheh spoke, and Elohim answered him by voice. (Exodus 19:20) And יהוה came down upon Mount Sinai, on the top of the mountain. And יהוה called Mosheh to the top of the mountain, and Mosheh went up. (Exodus
19:21) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Go down, and warn the people, lest they break through
unto יהוה
to see, and many of them fall. (Exodus
19:22) “And let the priests who
come near יהוה set them apart too, lest יהוה break out against them.” (Exodus
19:23) And Mosheh said to יהוה, “The people are not able to come up to
Mount Sinai, for you warned us, saying, ‘Make a border around the mountain and
set it apart.’ ” (Exodus 19:24) And יהוה said to him, “Come, go down and then come
up, you and Aharon with you. But do not let the priests and the people break
through to come up to יהוה, lest He break out
against them.” (Exodus 19:25) And Mosheh went down to the people and spoke
to them.
TEN WORDS- (Torah- Instructions-Commands)
(Exodus 20:1)
And Elohim spoke all these Words, saying, (Exodus
20:2) “I am יהוה your Elohim, who brought you out of the
land of Mitsrayim, out of the house of slavery. (Exodus
20:3) “You have no other mighty
ones against my face. (Exodus 20:4) “You do not make for yourself a carved image,
or any likeness of that which is in the heavens above, or which is in the earth
beneath, or which is in the waters under the earth, (Exodus
20:5) you do not bow down to them
nor serve them. For I, יהוה your Elohim am a
jealous Ěl, visiting the crookedness of the fathers on the children to the
third and fourth generations of those who hate me, (Exodus
20:6) but showing kindness to thousands, to those who love me and guard
my commands. (Exodus 20:7) “You do not bring 1
the Name of יהוה your Elohim to
naught, for יהוה does not leave the
one unpunished who brings His Name to naught. Footnote:
1 Or lift up, or take. (Exodus
20:8) “Remember the Sabbath day,
to set it apart. (Exodus 20:9) “Six days you labor, and shall do all your
work, (Exodus 20:10) but the seventh day is a Sabbath 1 of יהוה
your Elohim. You do not do any work – you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor
your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger
who is within your gates. Footnote: 1 There
are other Sabbaths, but this is the weekly Sabbath. (Exodus 20:11)
“For in six days יהוה made the heavens and
the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day.
Therefore יהוה blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart. (Exodus 20:12)
“Respect your father and your mother, so that your days are prolonged
upon the soil which יהוה your Elohim is giving
you. (Exodus 20:13) “You do not murder. (Exodus
20:14) “You do not commit

20:16) “You do not bear false
witness against your neighbor. (Exodus 20:17) “You do not covet your neighbor’s house; you
do not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female
servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, or whatever belongs to your neighbor.”
Yahweh’s power displayed- FEAR HIM- don’t fear the devil
and the created beings (ALIENS-DEMONS-NEPHILIM)
(Exodus 20:18) And all the
people saw the thunders, the lightning flashes, the sound of the ram’s horn,
and the mountain smoking. And the people saw it, and they trembled and stood
at a distance, (Exodus 20:19) and said to
Mosheh, “You speak with us and we hear, but let not Elohim speak with us, lest
we die.” (Exodus 20:20) And Mosheh said to the people, “Do not fear,
for Elohim has come to prove you, and in order that His fear be before you, so
that you do not sin.” (Exodus 20:21) So the people stood at a distance, but Mosheh
drew near the thick darkness where Elohim was. (Exodus
20:22) And יהוה
said to Mosheh, “Say this to the children of Yisra’ĕl: ‘You yourselves have
seen that I have spoken to you from the heavens. (Exodus
20:23) ‘You do not make besides
me mighty ones of silver, and you do not make mighty ones of gold for
yourselves. (Exodus 20:24) ‘Make an altar of earth for me, and you shall
slaughter on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and
your cattle. In every place where I cause My Name to be remembered I shall come
to you and bless you. (Exodus 20:25) ‘And if you make me an altar of stone, do not
build it of cut stone, for if you use your chisel on it, you have profaned it. (Exodus 20:26)
‘Nor do you go up by steps to my altar, lest your nakedness be exposed
on it.’
Mighty Elohim is He whom we serve!
(Isaiah 6:1)
In the year that Sovereign Uzziyahu died, I saw יהוה sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His
robe filled the Hĕḵal (Temple). (Isaiah 6:2)
Above it stood seraphim. Each one had six wings: with two he covered his
face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. (Isaiah 6:3)
And one cried to another and said, “Set-apart, set-apart, set-apart is יהוה of hosts; all the earth is filled with His
esteem!” (Isaiah 6:4) And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who
cried out, and the house was filled with smoke. (Isaiah 6:5)
And I said, “Woe to me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean
lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips – for my eyes have
seen the sovereign, יהוה of hosts.” (Isaiah 6:6)
And one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which
he had taken with the tongs from the altar. (Isaiah
6:7) And he touched my mouth with
it, and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your crookedness is taken away,
and your sin is covered.” (Isaiah 6:8) And I heard the voice of יהוה, saying, “Whom do I send, and who would go for us?” And I said,
“Here am I! Send me.” (Isaiah 6:9) And He said, “Go, and you shall say to this
people, ‘Hearing, you hear, but do not understand; and seeing, you see, but do
not know.’ (Isaiah 6:10) “Make the heart of this people fat, and their
ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart,
and shall turn and be healed.” (Isaiah
6:11) Then I
said, “יהוה,
until when?” And He answered, “Until the cities are laid waste and without
inhabitant, and the houses are without a man, and the land is laid waste, a
ruin, (Isaiah 6:12) and יהוה has removed men far away, and the forsaken
places be many in the midst of the land. (Isaiah 6:13) “But still, there is a tenth part in it, and
it shall again be for a burning, like a terebinth tree and like an oak, whose
stump remains when it is cut down. The set-apart seed is its stump!” (Isaiah 7:1)
And it came to be in the days of Aḥaz son of Yotham, son of
Uzziyahu, sovereign of Yehuḏah, that Retsin sovereign of Aram and Peqaḥ son
of Remalyahu, sovereign of Yisra’ĕl, went up to Yerushalayim to fight against
it, but could not prevail against it. (Isaiah 7:2) And it was reported to the house of Dawiḏ,
saying, “Aram has set up camp in Ephrayim.” And his heart and the heart of his
people were moved as the trees of the forest are moved with the wind. (Isaiah 7:3)
And יהוה said to Yeshayahu, “Go out now to meet
Aḥaz, you and She’ar-Yashuḇ your son, at the end of the channel of the upper
pool, on the highway of the Launderer’s Field, (Isaiah
7:4) and say to him, ‘Take heed, and be calm; do not fear or be
faint-hearted for these two stubs of smoking firebrands, for the fierce
displeasure of Retsin and Aram, and the son of Remalyahu. (Isaiah 7:5)
‘Because Aram, Ephrayim, and the son of Remalyahu have plotted evil
against you, saying, (Isaiah 7:6) “Let us go up against Yehuḏah and tear it
apart, and break it open for ourselves, and set a sovereign over them, the son
of Taḇe’ĕl.”
Our Deliverer is sitting at the right hand of the Father
waiting for His enemies to be made His footstool!
(Isaiah 9:5)
For every boot of one trampling in tumult, and coat rolled in blood,
shall be used for burning and fuel of fire. (Isaiah
9:6) For a Child shall be born
unto us, a Son shall be given unto us, and the rule is on His
shoulder. And His Name is called Wonder, Counselor, Strong Ěl, Father of
Continuity, Prince of Peace.

great Sovereign; (Matthew 5:36) nor swear by your head, because you are not able to make one

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