Shabbat Shalom
Loved One!
Click here for Psalm 91DECREE. YHWH
is restoring all things; that includes us who were once DRY BONES! All who KNOW (Not know about) HIM and call on Him
will be delivered- HalleluYAH!
Why are we on a
different schedule of the Torah Cycle than the mainstream and the Orthodox? For
me it is about restoration of all things- explanation continued at end of this
week’s study-
A short review
about the seriousness and sobering events that brings us face to face with a
reality of wickedness that our planet has not seen before. We addressed our readiness to trust- even unto
death as the three thrown into the fiery furnace. We must answer for ourselves
and our loved ones some tough questions; we now see and hear about evil
personified with be-headings and such by demon filled men. Are we willing to die
for our Messiah and King? Better yet, as our friend Lynette pondered- are we
PREPARED to die for our relationship with our King? Are our children taught
that death is temporary- but our decisions in these matters are eternal?
Many
of us will die during the planned events and where will we spend eternity? It
is an easy thing to SAY we would never renounce our King but a totally
different thing to be faced with the famines and cruelty of wicked men. If we
really love our children and loved ones- we will discuss these matters and
teach them the life and death importance of resolving this in our minds. What
will be our response if our loved ones are brought before us and slain- or what
will be their response if we are tortured and slain before them? I had and have
a great link of Sadhu teaching on this matter.
FEAR NOT- but we
prepare our hearts and minds- we are commanded to pray that we be made worthy
to escape and endure-and STAND at His appearing and that will require
intimate relationship and His peace in all situations… Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zr1T_hJm0ZM
(1 hr. 40 min) We should also realize
that evil men (The “elite”) are posturing
to bring us fear and anxiety- but we FEAR NOT.
His Vengeance
is not for us, and I believe what we see today- as bad as it is- are but the
signs of birth pangs- so we fear not. Want to have a fearless attitude-
change what we think. We become as we think! I have attached PSALM 91 (As I have in the past) that was recently prophesied to me- let’s memorize these truthful and
powerful words! Also attached as I just mentioned:
DECREE Psalm 91 for Family, Friends and
all Loved Ones!
Psalm 91:1 He who dwells
in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the
Almighty. Psalm 91:2 I will say of Yahweh,
"He is my refuge and my fortress;
My Elohim, in Him I will trust." Psalm 91:3
Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence. Psalm 91:4 He shall cover
you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler. Psalm 91:5 you shall not be afraid of the terror by
night, or of the arrow that flies by day, Psalm
91:6 Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. Psalm 91:7 a thousand may
fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you. Psalm 91:8 only with your eyes shall you look, and
see the reward of the wicked. Psalm 91:9 Because you have made Yahweh, who is my refuge, even
the Most High, your dwelling place, Psalm 91:10 No evil shall befall you, nor shall any
plague come near your dwelling; Psalm 91:11 For He shall give His angels charge over you,
to keep you in all your ways. Psalm 91:12 in their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash
your foot against a stone. Psalm 91:13 you shall tread
upon the lion and the cobra, the young lion and the serpent you shall trample
underfoot. Psalm 91:14 "Because he has set
his love upon me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because
he has known my name. Psalm 91:15 He shall call
upon me, and I will answer him; I will be
with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. Psalm
91:16 with long life I will satisfy him, and show him my salvation."
This DAY is
coming but we are only seeing glimpses of evil at this time- time we awaken
from our slumber and draw near to our coming King- who laughs at these
wicked men- and their planned events. AS it gets darker- the wicked get more
dark- as we are filled with more light!
Psalm
2:1 why do the
gentiles’ rage 1, and the peoples
meditate emptiness? Footnote: 1 Acts
4:25-26. Psalm 2:2 the sovereigns of the
earth take their stand and the rulers take counsel together, against יהוה and against
His Messiah, and say, Psalm 2:3 “Let us
tear apart Their bonds, and throw away their ropes from us.” Psalm 2:4 He who is sitting in the heavens
laughs, יהוה mocks
at them. Psalm 2:5 Then He speaks to
them in His wrath, and troubles them in His rage, saying, Psalm 2:6 “But I, I have set My Sovereign on Tsiyon,
My set-apart mountain.” Psalm 2:7 “I inscribe
for a law: יהוה has said to me, ‘you are My Son, today I
have brought you forth. Psalm 2:8 ‘Ask of me,
and I make the gentiles your inheritance, and the ends of the earth your
possession. Psalm 2:9 ‘Break them with a rod of
iron, dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ ” Psalm
2:10 and now, be wise, O sovereigns; be instructed, you rulers of the
earth. Psalm 2:11 Serve יהוה
with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Psalm 2:12
Kiss the Son, lest He be enraged, and you perish in the way, for soon His wrath
is to be kindled. Blessed are all those taking refuge in Him.
These days are coming- but once again- we are seeing
glimpses of pure evil and should be awakened…
Luke 21:22
For these are
the days of vengeance, that all things
which are written may be fulfilled. Luke 21:23
But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are
nursing babies in those days! For there will be great distress in the land and
wrath upon this people. Luke 21:24 and they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away
captive into all nations. And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the
times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. Luke 21:25
“And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and
in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea
and the waves roaring; Luke 21:26 men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of
those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will
be shaken. Luke 21:27 Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with
power and great glory. Luke 21:28 now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up
your heads, because your redemption draws near." Luke 21:29 Then He spoke to
them a parable: "Look at the fig tree, and
all the trees. Luke 21:30 When they are already budding, you see and know for
yourselves that summer is now near. Luke 21:31
so you also, when you see these things happening, know
that the kingdom of God is near. Luke 21:32
Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no
means pass away till all things take place. Luke
21:33 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my
words will by no means pass away. Luke 21:34
"But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be
weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day
come on you unexpectedly. Luke 21:35 for it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the
face of the whole earth. Luke 21:36 Watch therefore, and pray
always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come
to pass and to stand before the Son of Man."
I expect our
lives will soon reflect our relationships and what is really important to us. What or who do
we really LOVE? As darkness (Wickedness: twisted from TRUTH or absence
of light) covers the earth- gross darkness will cover the people. This is
what societies worldwide are experiencing. For those sober and alert- those who
want to know their Elohim and draw near- they will become lighter and lighter.
The dark will draw near to like kind, becoming darker- and more perverted as
their conciseness’ are “seared”. Those
of willing obedience- which brings revelation and light will be drawn to more
light.
Matthew 22:31 “And concerning the
resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by Elohim,
saying, Matthew 22:32 ‘I am the Elohim of
Aḇraham, and the
Elohim of Yitsḥaq, and the Elohim of Yaʽaqoḇ’? Elohim is not the Elohim of
the dead, but of the living.” Matthew 22:33 and when the
crowds heard, they were astonished at His teaching. Matthew 22:34 But the
Pharisees, having heard that He had silenced the Sadducees, were gathered
together, Matthew 22:35 and one of them, one learned in the Torah, did question,
trying Him, and saying, Matthew 22:36 “Teacher, which is the great command in the Torah?”
Matthew 22:37 and יהושע said
to him, “you shall love יהוה your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and
with your entire mind.’ Matthew 22:38 “This is the first
and great command. Matthew 22:39 “And the second is
like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ Matthew 22:40 “On these two commands hang all the Torah and the Prophets.”
We should again note that the
first four of the TEN COMMANDMENTS teach us how Yahuah (YHWH, Yahweh, and
Elohim) wants to be loved; and the latter six tell us how to love our neighbor
as ourselves. Read them and ponder on them- because they will direct the path
of your life:
Last week we also learned
we must SPEAK AGREEMENT
WITH YAHSHUA NO MATTER THE STORM RAGING! Remember; Yahshua reminds us;
His words are Spirit and Life. We will not be allowed to have His power if we
speak the facts- that disagree with Him- remember the facts (giants in the land) are temporal (temporary) and subject to change
whereas His words and agreeing with them are eternal- He reminds us that Heaven
and Earth will pass away but His words will remain forever! Hallelu-Yah- walking
in a demonstration of His power (which is
becoming an ever apparent need) requires a humbling obedience on our parts
loved one. Can we even imagine becoming Kings and Priests in the Millennial
Kingdom if we won’t even obey Him in this day? We also talked about the Moedim
or appointments Yahweh has with His people that we may know the Times and
Seasons He would desire us to know about being sober and alert.
(1 Thessalonians 5:1) But of the times and the seasons (Moedim-Appointments), brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. (Comment: these times and seasons are the Moedim or
appointed Feasts of YHWH, they are designed to help us understand His appointed
times so that we will be not be overtaken and surprised and of the “they” that
shall not escape!)
(1 Thessalonians 5:2) For yourselves know perfectly that the day of
the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. (1
Thessalonians 5:3) For when they shall say, Peace
and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with
child; and they
shall not escape. (1 Thessalonians 5:4) But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day
should overtake you as a thief. (1
Thessalonians 5:5) Ye are all the
children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of
darkness. (1 Thessalonians 5:6) Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. (1 Thessalonians 5:7)
For they
that sleep, sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. (1 Thessalonians 5:8)
But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of
faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.
(1 Thessalonians 5:9) For YHWH
has not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation (deliverance, healing, help) by our
Master Yahshua Messiah, (1 Thessalonians 5:10) Who
died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. (1 Thessalonians 5:11) Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and
edify one another, even as also you do.
These appointed times and seasons
have many now starting the annual Torah
“cycle” study over having finished the Fall Feasts of YHWH (Comment: cycle is the word for path in
Hebrew, i.e. (Psalms 119:105) Thy word is a lamp unto my feet,
and a light unto my path.) As you see, I start over our Torah
Cycle when Yahweh starts His year over at AVIV, as I consider this part of His
restoration, the ancient path may also be known as a well beaten path since it
has been travelled often. My reasoning is always at the end of each weekly study.
Why do we study in “cycles” or go
over and over the same scriptures every year? Our answer is found many places
but here is one: We learn and receive truth by HEARING
AND HEARING!
That’s what builds our trust and
faith as Romans 10:17 instructs us: (Romans 10:13) “Everyone who calls on the Name of
יהוה shall be
saved.” (Romans 10:14) How then shall they call on Him in whom they
have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not
heard? And how shall they hear without one proclaiming? (Romans 10:15) And how
shall they proclaim if they are not sent? As it has been written, “How pleasant
are the feet of those who bring the Good News of peace, who bring the Good News
of the good!”
(Romans 10:16) However, not all obeyed the Good News. Yeshayahu says, “יהוה, who has believed our report?” (Romans 10:17)
So then belief (faith/trust) comes by hearing, and
hearing by the word of Elohim. (Romans 10:18) But I ask, did they not hear? Yea indeed,
“Their voice went out to all the earth, and their words to the ends of the
world.” (Romans 10:19) But I ask, did Yisra’ĕl not know? First
Mosheh says, “I shall provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation, I
shall enrage you by an unwise nation.” (Romans 10:20) And Yeshayahu boldly says, “I was found by
those not seeking me, I was made manifest to those not asking for me.” (Romans 10:21)
And to Yisra’ĕl He says, “All day long I have stretched out my hands to
a disobedient and back-talking people.”
There
is a folk saying:
“Sticks and stones may break my bones; but words can
never hurt me.” NOTHING
could be farther from the truth!
(John 6:63)
“It is
the Spirit that gives life, the flesh does not profit at all. The words that I speak to you
are Spirit and are life.1
Footnote: 1 See v. 68, and 1 Corinthians
15:45. Remember we just mentioned His Word and Spirit are in unity. All
words are spiritual; agreeing with Yahshua’s words are life and healing to our
flesh. Words that disagree with Yahshua are lies no matter the facts. What is
SEEN is temporal (temporary and subject
to change) what is unseen is eternal (Words
of Yahshua) as He spoke above His words are spirit and life. (Matthew 5:18)
“For
truly, I say to you, till the heaven and the earth pass away, one jot or one
tittle shall by no means pass from the Torah till all be done.1 Footnote: 1 Luke
16:17.
Yahweh formed the worlds with His spoken word! KJV (Hebrews 11:1) now faith is the substance of
things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (Hebrews
11:2) For by it the elders
obtained a good report. (Hebrews 11:3) Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the WORDS of
Yahweh, so that things which are seen were not made of
things which do appear.
It is becoming ever apparent that as
followers of Yahshua and being made in His image; we too, will FRAME OUR WORLDS
(In a manner of speech- for our own lives)
by agreeing with His words!
(Isaiah 29:13)
And יהוה says, “Because this people has drawn near with its mouth, and
with its lips they have esteemed Me, and it has kept its heart far from Me, and
their fear of Me has become a command of men that is taught1!
Footnote: 1 Matthew 15:8-9, Mark 7:6-7. (Isaiah 29:14)
“Therefore, see, I am again doing a marvelous work among this people, a
marvelous work and a wonder. And the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and
the understanding of their clever men shall be hidden.” (Isaiah 29:15) Woe to those
who seek deep to hide their counsel far from יהוה,
and their works are in the dark; they say, “Who sees us?” and, “Who knows us?” (Isaiah 29:16)
How perverse of you! Should the potter be reckoned as the clay? Should
what is made say of its Maker, “He did not make me”? And what is formed say
of Him who formed it, “He did not understand”? (Isaiah
29:17) Is it not yet a little
while, and Leḇanon shall be turned into garden land, and garden land be
reckoned as a forest? (Isaiah 29:18) And in that day the deaf shall hear the words of the book
and the eyes of the blind shall see out of gloom, and out of darkness. (Isaiah 29:19) And the meek ones shall increase their joy in יהוה, and the poor
among men rejoice in the Set-apart One of Yisra’ĕl.
Words (especially from Yahweh) are LIFE and DEATH to speak agreement with! HEAR AND DO!
(Deuteronomy 6:4)
“Hear, O Yisra’ĕl: יהוה our Elohim, יהוה is one! (Deuteronomy
6:5) “And you shall love יהוה your Elohim with all your heart, and with
all your being, and with all your might. (Deuteronomy
6:6) “And these Words which I am commanding you today shall be
in your heart, (Deuteronomy 6:7) and you shall
impress them upon your children, and shall speak of
them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie
down, and when you rise up, (Deuteronomy 6:8)
and shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets
between your eyes. (Deuteronomy 6:9) “And you shall write them on the doorposts of
your house and on your gates.
(Romans 10:1)
Truly brothers, my heart’s desire and prayer to Elohim for Yisra’ĕl is
for deliverance. (Romans 10:2) For I bear them witness that they have an
ardor for Elohim, but not according to knowledge. (Romans
10:3) For
not knowing the righteousness of Elohim, and seeking to establish their own
righteousness, they did not subject themselves to1 the
righteousness of Elohim. Footnote: 1 or did
not obey. (Romans 10:4) Messiah is the goal1 of the ‘Torah unto
righteousness’ to everyone who
believes. Footnote: 1Or end purpose; not
termination. (Romans 10:5) For Mosheh writes about the righteousness
which is of the Torah, “The man who does these shall live by them.” (Romans 10:6)
But the righteousness of belief speaks in this way, “Do not say in your
heart, ‘Who shall ascend into the heavens?’ ” – that is, to bring Messiah down;
or, (Romans 10:7) “‘who shall descend into the
abyss?’ ” – that is, to bring Messiah up from the dead.
(Romans 10:8)
But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” – that is, the word of
belief which we are proclaiming: (Romans 10:9) that
if you
confess (speak) with your mouth the Master יהושע (The WORD
made flesh who dwells among us) and believe in your heart that Elohim has raised Him from the dead, you
shall be saved
(Delivered, saved, healed, made whole).
(Romans 10:10)
For with the
heart one believes unto righteousness, and one confesses with
the mouth, and so is saved. (Romans 10:11) Because the Scripture says, “Whoever puts his trust in Him shall not be put to
shame.”
He
is no respecter of persons but as He told Jeremiah- He is watching over His
word to perform it!
(Romans 10:12) Because there is no distinction between Yehuḏite and Greek, for
the same Master of all is rich to all those calling upon Him. (Romans 10:13)
“Everyone
who calls on the Name of יהוה shall be saved.”
(Romans 10:14) How then shall they call on Him in whom they
have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not
heard? And how shall they hear without one proclaiming?
The Ruach will guide us into more
truth as we receive the engrafted word and become DOERS of what has been
revealed. (Romans
2:13) Not the hearers of the Torah are righteous in the sight
of Elohim, but the doers of
the law 1
shall be declared right. Footnote: 1 Matthew
7:21-27, James 2:14-24.
When
we receive the engrafted word- we will both submit and obey by our doing
or likely we also are deceived or at least prone to hasatan’s attack.
(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
yourselves. 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 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 (submit- receive and do or SHE’MAH-Hear and
Obey) 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! (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. (James
4:11) Brothers, do not speak
against one another. He that speaks against a brother and judges his brother
speaks against Torah and judges Torah. And if you judge Torah, you are not a
doer of Torah but a judge. (James 4:12) There is one Lawgiver and Judge, who is able to save and to destroy.
Who are you to judge another?
(Hebrews 11:1) now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the
evidence of things not seen. (Romans 10:17) So then faith comes
by
hearing, and hearing (Cycle) by the word of YHWH. (Romans 10:18)
I say, have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the
earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. (Romans
10:19) I say, did not Israel
know? First Moses says I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and
by a foolish nation I will anger you. (Romans 10:20) But Isaiah is very bold, and saith, I was
found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not
after me. (Romans 10:21) But to Israel he says, All day long I have
stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.
We
now take a fresh look at the Cycles
of Scripture as our hearts receive fresh revelation and understanding from
hearing and hearing His word.
Loved One- let’s turn our hearts and minds to this week’s Torah
Scriptures!
Here are this week’s Torah
Scriptures: Emor
“Say”
Leviticus 21:1-24:23; Ezekiel
44:15-31; 1 Peter 2:4-10
TORAH- the
Constitution of the Kingdom
(Leviticus 21:1) And יהוה said to
Mosheh, “Speak to the priests, the sons of Aharon, and say to them: ‘No one is
to be defiled for the dead among his people, (Leviticus
21:2) except for his relatives who are nearest to him: for his mother,
and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother;
(Leviticus 21:3) and for his maiden sister who is near to him,
who has had no husband – for her he is defiled. (Leviticus
21:4) ‘A leader does not defile
himself among his people, to profane himself; (Leviticus
21:5) they do not make any bald place on their heads, and they do not
shave the corner of their beard, and they do not make a cutting in their flesh.
(Leviticus 21:6) ‘They are set-apart to their Elohim and do
not profane the Name of their Elohim, for they bring the offerings of יהוה made by fire, and the bread of their
Elohim, and shall be set-apart. (Leviticus 21:7) ‘They do not take a woman who is a whore or a
defiled woman, and they do not take a woman put away from her husband, for he
is set-apart to his Elohim. (Leviticus 21:8) ‘And you shall set him apart, for he brings
the bread of your Elohim, he is set-apart to you. For I, יהוה, setting you apart, am set-apart. (Leviticus 21:9) ‘And when the daughter of any priest profanes
herself by whoring, she profanes her father. She is burned with fire. (Leviticus 21:10)
‘And the high priest among his brothers, on whose head the anointing oil
was poured and who is ordained to wear the garments, does not unbind his head
nor tear his garments, (Leviticus 21:11) nor come near any dead body, nor defile
himself for his father or his mother, (Leviticus
21:12) nor go out of the
set-apart place, nor profane the set-apart place of his Elohim, for the sign of
dedication of the anointing oil of his Elohim is upon him. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 21:13) ‘And let him take a wife in her maidenhood. (Leviticus 21:14)
‘A widow or one put away or a defiled woman or a whore – these he does
not take. But a maiden of his own people he does take as a wife. (Leviticus 21:15)
‘And he does not profane his offspring among his people, for I am יהוה, who sets him apart.’ ” (Leviticus 21:16) And יהוה
spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 21:17) “Speak
to Aharon, saying, ‘No man of your offspring throughout their generations, who
has any defect, is to draw near to bring the bread of his Elohim. (Leviticus 21:18)
‘For any man who has a defect is not to draw near: a man blind or one
lame or disfigured or deformed, (Leviticus 21:19)
a man who has a broken foot or broken hand, (Leviticus
21:20) or is a hunchback or a dwarf, or a man who has a defect in his
eye, or eczema or scab, or is a eunuch. (Leviticus
21:21) ‘No man among the
offspring of Aharon the priest, who has a defect, is to come near to bring the
offerings made by fire to יהוה – he has a defect, he
does not come near to bring the bread of his Elohim. (Leviticus
21:22) ‘He does eat the bread of
his Elohim, both the most set-apart and the set-apart, (Leviticus
21:23) only, he does not go near the veil or approach the altar, because
he has a defect, lest he profanes my set-apart places. I am יהוה, who sets them apart.’ ” (Leviticus
21:24) Thus Mosheh spoke to Aharon and his sons, and to all the children
of Yisra’ĕl.
More rules of the
Kingdom
(Leviticus 22:1) And יהוה spoke to
Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 22:2) “Speak to
Aharon and his sons, that they separate themselves from the set-apart offerings
of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and that they do not profane my set-apart Name in
what they set apart to Me. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 22:3)
“Say to them, ‘any man of all your offspring throughout your generations
who draws near the set-apart offerings which the children of Yisra’ĕl
set apart to יהוה, while he has
uncleanness upon him, that being shall be cut off from before Me. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 22:4) ‘Any man of the offspring of Aharon who is a
leper or has a discharge; does not eat the set-apart offerings until he
is clean. And whoever touches what is rendered unclean by a corpse, or a man
who has had an emission of semen, (Leviticus 22:5)
or a man who touches any creeping creature by which he would be made unclean,
or any being by whom he would become unclean, even any of his uncleanness; (Leviticus 22:6) the being who has touched it shall
be unclean until evening, and does not eat the set-apart offerings, but
shall bathe his body in water. (Leviticus 22:7) ‘And when the sun goes down he shall be
clean, and afterward eat the set-apart offerings, because it is his
food. (Leviticus 22:8) ‘He does not eat that which dies or is torn by
beasts, becoming unclean by it. I am יהוה.
(Leviticus 22:9) ‘And they shall guard My Charge, lest they
bear sin for it and die thereby, when they profane it. I יהוה
set them apart. (Leviticus 22:10) ‘And no stranger eats the set-apart offering.
A sojourner with the priest, or a hired servant, does not eat the set-apart offering.
(Leviticus 22:11) ‘But when the priest buys a being with his
money, he does eat of it. And one who is born in his house does eat his food. (Leviticus 22:12)
‘And when a priest’s daughter is married to a stranger, she does not eat
of the set-apart offerings. (Leviticus 22:13) ‘But when a priest’s daughter is a widow or
put away, and has no child, and has returned to her father’s house as in her
youth, she does eat her father’s food, but no stranger eats of it. (Leviticus 22:14)
‘And when a man eats the set-apart offering by mistake, then he shall
give a set-apart offering to the priest, and add one-fifth to it. (Leviticus 22:15)
‘And let the priests not profane the set-apart offerings of the
children of Yisra’ĕl, which they lift up to יהוה,
(Leviticus 22:16) or allow them to bear the
crookedness of trespass when they eat their set-apart offerings. I am יהוה, who sets them apart.’ ” (Leviticus 22:17)
And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 22:18)
“Speak to Aharon and his sons, and to all the children of Yisra’ĕl, and
say to them, ‘Any man of the house of Yisra’ĕl, or of the strangers in
Yisra’ĕl, who brings his offering for any of his vows or for any of his
voluntary offerings, which they bring to יהוה
as a burnt offering, (Leviticus 22:19) for your acceptance, is a male, a perfect one
from the cattle, from the sheep, or from the goats. (Leviticus
22:20) ‘Whatever has a defect,
you do not bring, for it is not acceptable for you. (Leviticus
22:21) ‘And when a man brings a
peace offering to יהוה, to complete a vow,
or a voluntary offering from the cattle or the sheep, it is to be perfect to be
accepted, let there be no defect in it. (Leviticus
22:22) ‘Those blind or broken or
having a cut, or have an ulcer or eczema or scabs, you do not bring to יהוה, nor make an offering by fire of them on
the altar to יהוה. (Leviticus 22:23)
‘As for a bull or a lamb that has any limb deformed or dwarfed you do
prepare as a voluntary offering, but for a vow it is not accepted. (Leviticus 22:24)
‘Do not bring to יהוה what is bruised or
crushed, or torn or cut, nor do it in your land. (Leviticus
22:25) ‘And from a son of a
stranger’s hand you do not bring any of these as the bread of your Elohim, for
their corruption is in them, and defects are in them, they are not acceptable
for you.’ ” (Leviticus 22:26) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 22:27) “When a bull or a sheep or a goat
is born, it shall be seven days with its mother. And from the eighth day and
thereafter it is acceptable as an offering made by fire to יהוה. (Leviticus 22:28) “But do not slaughter a cow or a sheep and
its young on the same day. (Leviticus 22:29) “And when you bring a slaughtering of
thanksgiving to יהוה, bring it for your
acceptance. (Leviticus 22:30) “It is eaten that same day; leave none of it
till morning. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 22:31)
“And you shall guard my commands and do them. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 22:32) “And do not profane my set-apart Name, and I
shall be set-apart among the children of Yisra’ĕl. I am יהוה,
who sets you apart, (Leviticus 22:33) who
brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, to be your Elohim. I am יהוה.”
MORE on Appointed
Times of YHWH (Moedim-rehearsals)
(Leviticus 23:1) And יהוה spoke to
Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 23:2) “Speak to the
children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘the appointed times of יהוה, which you are
to proclaim as set-apart gatherings, my appointed times, are these: (Leviticus 23:3) ‘Six
days work is done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of rest, a set-apart
gathering. You do no work; it is a Sabbath to יהוה
in all your dwellings. (Leviticus 23:4) ‘These are the
appointed times of יהוה, set-apart gatherings
which you are to proclaim at their appointed times. (Leviticus 23:5)
‘In
the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, between the evenings, is
the Passover to יהוה. (Leviticus 23:6) ‘And on the fifteenth day of this month is the Festival
of Unleavened Bread to יהוה – seven days you eat unleavened bread. (Leviticus 23:7) ‘On the first day you have a set-apart gathering, you do
no servile work. (Leviticus 23:8) ‘And you shall
bring an offering made by fire to יהוה
for seven days. On the seventh day is a set-apart gathering, you do no servile
work.’ ” (Leviticus 23:9) and יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 23:10) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl,
and you shall say to them, ‘When you come into the
land which I give you, and shall reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf
of the first-fruits of your harvest to the priest. (Leviticus 23:11)
‘And he shall wave the sheaf before יהוה, for your acceptance. On the morrow after
the Sabbath the priest waves it. (Leviticus
23:12) ‘And on that day when you
wave the sheaf, you shall prepare a male lamb a year old, a perfect one, as a
burnt offering to יהוה, (Leviticus 23:13) and its grain offering: two-tenths
of an ĕphah of fine flour mixed with oil, an offering made by fire to יהוה, a sweet fragrance, and its drink
offering: one-fourth of a hin of wine. (Leviticus
23:14) ‘And you do not eat bread
or roasted grain or fresh grain until the same day that you have brought an
offering to your Elohim – a law forever throughout your generations in all your
dwellings. (Leviticus 23:15) ‘And from the
morrow after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave
offering, you shall count for yourselves: seven
completed Sabbaths. (Leviticus 23:16) ‘Until the morrow
after the seventh Sabbath you count fifty days, then you shall bring a new
grain offering to יהוה. (Leviticus 23:17)
‘Bring from your dwellings for a wave offering two loaves of
bread, of two-tenths of an ĕphah of fine flour they are, baked with leaven,
first-fruits to יהוה. (Leviticus 23:18)
‘And besides the bread, you shall bring seven lambs a year old, perfect
ones, and one young bull and two rams. They are a burnt offering to יהוה, with their grain offering and their drink
offerings, an offering made by fire for a sweet fragrance to יהוה. (Leviticus 23:19) ‘And you shall offer one male goat as a sin
offering, and two male lambs a year old, as a peace offering. (Leviticus 23:20)
‘And the priest shall wave them, besides the
bread of the first-fruits, as a wave offering before יהוה,
besides the two lambs. They are set-apart to יהוה
for the priest. (Leviticus 23:21) ‘And on this same
day you shall proclaim a set-apart gathering for yourselves, you do no servile
work on it – a law forever in all
your dwellings throughout your generations. (Leviticus 23:22)
‘And when you reap the harvest of your land do not completely reap the
corners of your field when you reap, and do not gather any gleaning from your
harvest. Leave them for the poor and for the stranger. I am יהוה your Elohim.’ ” (Leviticus 23:23)
and יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 23:24) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl,
saying, ‘In
the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you have a rest, a
remembrance of blowing of trumpets, a set-apart gathering. (Leviticus 23:25) ‘You do no
servile work, and you shall bring an offering made by fire to יהוה.’ ” (Leviticus 23:26)
And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 23:27) “On the
tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement. It shall be a
set-apart gathering for you. And you shall afflict your beings, and shall bring
an offering made by fire to יהוה.
(Leviticus 23:28) “And you do no work on that same day, for it is the Day
of Atonement, to make atonement for you before יהוה your Elohim. (Leviticus 23:29) “For any being
who is not afflicted on that same day, he shall be cut off from his people.
(Leviticus 23:30) “And any being
who does any work on that same day, that being I shall destroy from the midst
of his people. (Leviticus 23:31) “You do no work – a law forever throughout your
generations in all your dwellings. (Leviticus
23:32) ‘It is a Sabbath of rest
to you, and you shall afflict your beings. On the ninth day of the month at evening,
from evening to evening, you observe your Sabbath.” (Leviticus 23:33)
And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 23:34) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl,
saying, ‘On
the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the Festival of Booths for seven
days to יהוה.
(Leviticus 23:35) ‘On the first day
is a set-apart gathering, you do no servile work. (Leviticus 23:36)
‘For seven days you bring an offering made by fire to יהוה. On the eighth day there shall be a set-apart gathering for you, and
you shall bring an offering made by fire to יהוה. It is a closing festival, you do no
servile work. (Leviticus 23:37)
‘These
are the appointed times of יהוה which you proclaim as set-apart
gatherings, to bring an offering made by fire to יהוה, a burnt
offering and a grain offering, a slaughtering and drink offerings, as commanded
for every day – (Leviticus 23:38)
besides
the Sabbaths of יהוה, and besides your gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides
all your voluntary offerings which you give to יהוה. (Leviticus 23:39) ‘On the fifteenth
day of the seventh month, when you gather in the fruit of the land, observe the
festival of יהוה for seven days. On
the first day is a rest, and on the eighth day a rest. (Leviticus 23:40) ‘And you shall take for yourselves on the
first day the fruit of good trees, branches of palm trees, twigs of leafy
trees, and willows of the stream, and shall rejoice before יהוה your Elohim for seven days. (Leviticus
23:41) ‘And
you shall observe it as a festival to יהוה
for seven days in the year – a law forever in your generations. Observe it in
the seventh month. (Leviticus 23:42) ‘Dwell in booths for seven days; all who are native
Yisra’ĕlites dwell in booths, (Leviticus
23:43) so that your generations know that I
made the children of Yisra’ĕl dwell in booths when I brought them out of the
land of Mitsrayim. I am יהוה your Elohim.’ ”
(Leviticus 23:44) Thus did Mosheh speak of the appointed
times of יהוה
to the children of Yisra’ĕl.
More Rules of the Kingdom- Bringing Oil- Learning-
Never blaspheming His Name- YHWH!
(Leviticus 24:1) And יהוה spoke to
Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 24:2) “Command the
children of Yisra’ĕl that they bring to you clear oil of pressed olives for the
light, to make the lamps burn continually. (Leviticus
24:3) “Outside the veil of the
Witness, in the Tent of Meeting, Aharon is to arrange it from evening until morning
before יהוה continually – a law forever throughout
your generations. (Leviticus 24:4) “He is to arrange the lamps on the clean gold
lampstand before יהוה continually. (Leviticus 24:5)
“And you shall take fine flour and bake twelve cakes with it, two-tenths
of an ĕphah in each cake. (Leviticus 24:6) “And you shall set them in two rows, six in a
row, on the clean table before יהוה. (Leviticus 24:7)
“And you shall put clear frankincense on each row, and it shall be on
the bread as a remembrance portion, an offering made by fire to יהוה. (Leviticus 24:8) “On every Sabbath he is to arrange it before יהוה continually, from the children of Yisra’ĕl
– an everlasting covenant. (Leviticus 24:9) “And it shall be for Aharon and his sons, and
they shall eat it in the set-apart place, because it is most set-apart to him
from the offerings of יהוה made by fire – an
everlasting law.” (Leviticus 24:10) And the son of an Yisra’ĕlite woman, whose
father was a Mitsrite, went out among the children of Yisra’ĕl. And the
Yisra’ĕlite woman’s son and a man of Yisra’ĕl strove in the camp. (Leviticus 24:11)
And the Yisra’ĕlite woman’s son blasphemed the Name, and cursed.
So they brought him to Mosheh. Now his mother’s name was Shelomith the daughter
of Diḇri, of the tribe of Dan. (Leviticus 24:12) And they put him in under guard, that it
might be declared to them at the mouth of יהוה.
(Leviticus 24:13) And יהוה
spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 24:14)
“Bring the one who has cursed outside the camp, and all those who heard him
shall lay their hands on his head, and the entire congregation shall stone
him. (Leviticus 24:15) “And speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl,
saying, ‘Anyone who curses his Elohim shall bear his sin. (Leviticus 24:16)
‘And he who blasphemes the Name of יהוה shall certainly be put to death and the
entire certainly stone him, the
stranger as well as the native. When he blasphemes the Name, he is put to
death. (Leviticus 24:17) ‘And he who smites the life from any man
shall certainly be put to death. (Leviticus 24:18) ‘And he who smites a beast repays it, body
for body. (Leviticus 24:19) ‘And when a man inflicts a blemish upon his
neighbor, as he has done so it is done to him: (Leviticus
24:20) ‘Fracture for fracture, eye for eye, and tooth for tooth; as he
inflicts a blemish upon him, so it is done to him. (Leviticus
24:21) ‘And he who smites a beast
repays it, and he who smites a man to death is put to death. (Leviticus 24:22)
‘You are to have one right-ruling, for the stranger and for the native,
for I am יהוה your Elohim.’ ” (Leviticus
24:23) And Mosheh spoke to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and they brought
the one who cursed outside the camp, and stoned him with stones. And the
children of Yisra’ĕl did as יהוה commanded Mosheh.
(Ezekiel 44:15) “But the priests, the Lĕwites, the sons of
Tsaḏoq, who guarded the duty of my set-apart place when
the children of Yisra’ĕl went astray from me, they shall draw near to me to
serve me, and shall stand before me to bring to me the fat and the blood,”
declares the Master יהוה. (Ezekiel 44:16) “They shall enter my set-apart place, and
they shall draw near to my table to serve me, and they shall guard my charge. (Ezekiel 44:17)
“And it shall be, when they enter the gates of the inner courtyard that
they put on linen garments and no wool shall come upon them while they attend
within the gates of the inner courtyard or within the house. (Ezekiel 44:18)
“They shall have linen
(Highest frequency material) turbans
on their heads and linen trousers on their bodies; they shall not gird
themselves with sweat. (Ezekiel 44:19) “And when they go out to the outer courtyard,
to the outer courtyard to the people, they shall take off their garments in
which they have attended, and shall leave them in the set-apart rooms, and
shall put on other garments. And they shall set apart the people in their
set-apart garments. (Ezekiel 44:20) “And their heads they shall not shave, nor
shall they let their hair grow long – they shall keep their hair well-trimmed. (Ezekiel 44:21)
“And no priest is to drink wine when he comes into the inner court. (Ezekiel 44:22)
“And they do not take as wife a widow or a divorced woman, but take
maidens of the seed of the house of Yisra’ĕl, or widows of priests. (Ezekiel 44:23)
“And
they are to teach my people the difference between the set-apart and the
profane, and make them know what is unclean and clean. (Ezekiel 44:24) “And they are to stand as judges in a
dispute, and judge it according to my right-rulings. And they are to guard My
Torot and my laws in all my appointed festivals, and set apart My Sabbaths. (Ezekiel 44:25)
“And they are not to defile themselves by coming near a dead man. Only
for a father or mother, for a son or daughter, for a brother or unmarried
sister they defile themselves. (Ezekiel 44:26) “And after his cleansing, they count seven
days for him, (Ezekiel 44:27) and on the day that he comes into the inner
court of the set-apart place to attend in the set-apart place, he brings his
sin offering,” declares the Master יהוה.
(Ezekiel 44:28)
“And it shall be to them for an inheritance, I am their inheritance. And you give them no possession in Yisra’ĕl – I
am their possession. (Ezekiel 44:29) “The grain offering, and the sin offering,
and the guilt offering they are to eat, and all that is dedicated in Yisra’ĕl
is theirs. (Ezekiel 44:30) “And the first of all the first-fruits of
all, and every contribution of all, of all your contributions, belong to the
priests. And the first of your ground meal you give to the priest, so that a
blessing rests on your house. (Ezekiel 44:31) “The priests are not to eat any bird or beast
found dead or torn to pieces.
Making ourselves
ready – washing in the water of the word- becoming the BRIDE without spot or
blemish- living stones...a ROYAL PRIESTHOOD
(1 Peter 2:1) Having put aside,
then, all evil, and all deceit, and hypocrisies, and envying’s, and all evil
words, (1 Peter 2:2) as newborn babes,
desire the unadulterated milk of the Word, in order that you grow by it,
(1 Peter 2:3)
if indeed you have tasted that the Master is
good. (1 Peter 2:4) Drawing near to
Him, a living Stone – rejected indeed by men, but chosen by Elohim and precious
– (1 Peter 2:5) you also, as living stones, are being
built up, a spiritual house, a set-apart priesthood, to offer up spiritual
slaughter offerings acceptable to Elohim through יהושע Messiah. (1 Peter 2:6) Because it is contained in the Scripture, “See, I lay in Tsiyon a chief corner-stone, chosen, precious,
and he who believes on Him shall by no means be put to shame.”1 Footnote: 1 Isaiah
28:16. (1 Peter 2:7) this preciousness,
then, is for you who believe; but to those who are disobedient, “The stone which the builders rejected has become the
chief corner-stone,”1 Footnote: 1 Psalms 118:22. (1 Peter 2:8) and “A stone of stumbling and a rock
that makes for falling,” 1 who
stumble because they are disobedient 2
to the Word, to which they also were appointed. Footnotes:
1 Isaiah 8:14. 2 See John 3:36, Hebrews 3:18. (1
Peter 2:9) But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a
set-apart nation, a people for a possession, that you should proclaim the
praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light, (1 Peter 2:10)
who once were not a people, but now the
people of Elohim; who had not obtained compassion, but now obtained compassion.
Loved
One, my prayer for you and all your loved ones and for our loved ones is that
whatever it takes; whether an angel or person, that YHWH sends workers to bring
these all to REPENTANCE
and gathers us into His harvest. Therefore, we put aside all manner and avenues
of deceit, evil, envying’s, and evil words that report apparent facts but
disagree with His word and drink the pure word of YHWH and draw near to Him who
made Heaven and Earth and all that is seen and unseen! This life is quite
temporary in this flesh body so knowing this let’s live our lives that we may
believe YHWH- that if we ask ANYTHING that is according to His word, and we
know He hears us; we KNOW we have the things we have asked for! Hallelu-YAH! (1 John 1:9)
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins,
and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 5:14) And this is the boldness that we have in Him, that if we
ask whatever according to His desire, He hears us. (1 John 5:15) And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions
that we have asked of Him! I pray also that you walk in Him and
produce His fruit that remains! (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/trust
should not
be in the wisdom of men but in the power of Elohim. I further
pray that you learn to walk in His supernatural gifts by faith and trust and
further that you walk in obedience and so in love with the Messiah that you
FEAR NOT! Thanks for your timely prayers for us that we also walk in His power,
love and obedience; and that YHWH directs, provides, and protects us also along
with our loved ones! Billie and I believe those wonderful prayers are seeds for
your own loved ones- PRAISE YAHUAH! OUR DELIVERER IS COMING! HALLELU-YAH! You are
much loved!
Shalom again to
your home Loved One!

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,
