Shabbat Shalom
Loved One!
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! Click here for Psalm 91 decree and click here for Bobby Conner’s teaching on drawing near to the SECRET PLACE. YHWH is
restoring all things; that includes us who were once the DRY BONES of Ezekiel’s
instructions! All who KNOW
(Not know about) HIM and call on Him will be delivered- when we seek Him with
our whole hearts- we will find Him! HalleluYAH! There
is so much deception and misdirection these days concerning our health
and what we are eating. Click here for an article about MSG and what it does to our bodies; and they have now changed it's name so often you
would not likely even know you are eating it! (HIDDEN)
Here’s
a short review from last week- I believe it to be very important-
Did you see this
last week? Here is the 38 minute actual interview:
in Hebrew with English captions Jewish
teen dies; sees end times wars and Messiah. Rabbi Rami Levy & 15 year Old Natan English Subtitles - Testimony About The End of Days Coming Soon
Psalm
8:1 O יהוה, our Master,
how excellent is Your Name in all the earth, you who set your splendor above
the heavens! Psalm 8:2 Out of the mouth of
babes and infants you have founded strength, because of your adversaries, to
put an end to enemy and avenger. Psalm 8:3 For
I see your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you
have established. Psalm 8:4 What is man that
you remember him? And the son of man that you visit him? Psalm 8:5 Yet you have made him a little less than Elohim, (Comment: earlier versions had incorrectly
placed us under the angels) and have crowned him with esteem and splendor. Psalm 8:6 You made him rule over the works of your
hands; You have put all under his feet, Psalm 8:7
All sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field, Psalm
8:8 The birds of the heavens, and
the fish of the sea, passing through the paths of the seas. Psalm 8:9 O יהוה, our Master, how excellent is Your Name in all the earth!
Loved one- I pray this prayer for
YOU today! I truly desire your eyes of understanding
(Spiritual eyes) opened so that YOU may know the hope of your calling- which is
your destiny or hope of your calling!
Ephesians
1:15 For this reason I too, having
heard of your belief (faith,
trust) 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 of His calling, and what are the riches of the
esteem of His inheritance in the set-apart ones, Footnote:
1 Luke 24:45. Ephesians 1:19
and what is the exceeding greatness
of His power toward us who are believing, according to the working of
His mighty strength, Ephesians 1:20 which He
wrought in the Messiah when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him
at His right hand in the heavenlies, Ephesians 1:21
far above all rule and authority and
power and mastery, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also
in that which is to come. Ephesians 1:22 And He
put all under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all, to the assembly, (You and I- are His body and He is our head) Ephesians 1:23 which is His body, the completeness of Him who fills all in all.
Let’s reason together; world events such as Paris attacks and
Europe being filled with Syrian able-bodied fighting age young men who are
named “refugees”. Reeks of a planned operation or what many call conspiracy.
Remember it is order out of chaos. Whose order? So many false flags worldwide
and they are escalating. Immediately after the so called Paris attack (which
coincided perfectly with safety drill for such an event, France bombed Syria,
along with many other “Coalition” forces. Then the French President quickly
changed his mind and said—we will allow 30,000 or so in as the world must keep
going. The Patriot Act worked for USA as it was anything but patriotic. It was
designed to take control away from the citizens. Last week, I talked with a
nice German couple who were vacationing and they mentioned they (Citizens) have
no guns or any way to defend themselves. Will they arm these “refugee” men?
Well they certainly armed the drug running cartels with FAST and FURIOUS
operation. Can we even imagine the wicked one’s plans here?
Who has the desire to control the world
and has stated their agenda? Look online for yourself and see U. N. AGENDA 21
or U. N. AGENDA 2030. That’s enough about the wicked one’s plans- we are sober
and alert and seeking our Father’s heart and direction!
Loved One, do we really
believe that the political process will bring us deliverance when evil men rule and
control our world today? Possibly along with Yahuah’s (Yahweh- Elohim- God) promised
arrival of Nephilim. Yahusha (Jesus) promised it would be as the Days of
Noah- with fallen angels mating with women as in Genesis 6:4 and the world and
its occupants becoming more evil to some of our bewilderment and unbelief!) My
continued prayer for you and all your loved ones and yes- Billie and me and our
loved ones is that whatever it takes, whether an angel or person, that YHWH
sends workers (Angels or people as both are fine) to bring us all to REPENTANCE and THEN HE WILL GIVE US HIS POWER (Or more specifically empowers us to RECEIVE what
He has already given us in Luke 10:19) to allow us to overcome
all the power of hell and then after great fiery trials the earth has never
seen before—AFTER those times, then He sends His angels and gathers us into His
harvest. It is high time that we take serious these days and MAKE OURSELVES READY as His
bride!
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.
Now OBSERVE below in Leviticus the promise of
Yahweh for a nation like us (USA) that disobeys His commands and follows
after their own ways! I have placed the script in red because Yahusha (Jesus)
is this commanded word:
(John 1:1) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word
was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim. (John 1:2) He was in the
beginning with Elohim. (John 1:3) All came to be
through Him, 1 and without Him not even one came to be that came to
be. Footnote: 1 Ephesians 3:9,
Colossians 1:16, Hebrews 1:2, Hebrews 11:3, 2 Peter 3:5, Psalm 33:6. (John 1:4) In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. (John 1:5) And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has
not overcome it.
So... we ask what would Yahusha (Jesus) do?
Many of you
realize that in the Bible code, the TORAH in Hebrew every 70th letter spells
TORAH (instructions not LAW) in Genesis and Exodus pointing to Leviticus and
every 70th letter in Numbers and Deuteronomy spell Torah backwards
pointing to Leviticus- while Leviticus spells Yahusha (Jesus) in Hebrew every 7
letters! I suspect the Creator of the Universe wants us to understand who He
really is! I have posted these promises to us in the USA in blood
red by Yahusha
(Leviticus 26:14) ‘But if you do not obey Me, and do not do all these
commands, (Leviticus 26:15) and if you reject My laws, or if your
being loathes My right-rulings, so that you do not do all My commands, but
break My covenant, (Leviticus 26:16) I also
do this to you: And I shall appoint sudden alarm over you, wasting disease and
inflammation, destroying the eyes, and consuming the life. And you shall sow
your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. (Leviticus 26:17)
‘And I shall set my face against you, and
you shall be smitten before your enemies. And those who hate you shall rule
over you, and you shall flee when no one pursues you. (Leviticus 26:18)
‘And after all this, if you do not obey me,
then I shall punish you seven times
more for your sins. (Leviticus
26:19) ‘And
I shall break the pride of your power, and shall make your heavens like iron
and your earth like bronze. (Leviticus 26:20) ‘And your
strength shall be spent in vain and your land will not yield its crops, nor do
the trees of the land yield their fruit. (Leviticus
26:21) ‘And
if you walk contrary to me, and refuse to obey Me, I shall bring on you seven
times more plagues, according to your sins, (Leviticus
26:22) and
send wild beasts among you, which shall bereave you of your children. And I
shall cut off your livestock, and make you few in number, and your highways
shall be deserted. (Leviticus 26:23) ‘And if you are
not instructed by me by these, but walk contrary to me, (Leviticus 26:24)
then I also shall walk contrary to you, and
I myself shall smite you seven times for your sins. (Leviticus 26:25)
‘And I shall bring against you a sword
executing the vengeance of my covenant, and you shall gather together in your
cities, and I shall send pestilence among you, and you shall be given into the
hand of the enemy. (Leviticus 26:26) ‘When I have cut
off your supply of bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they
shall bring back to you your bread by weight and you shall eat and not be
satisfied. (Leviticus 26:27) ‘And if in spite
of this, you do not obey me, but walk contrary to me, (Leviticus 26:28)
then
I shall walk contrary to you in wrath. And I myself shall punish you seven
times for your sins. (Leviticus 26:29) ‘And you shall
eat the flesh of your sons, and eat the flesh of your daughters. (Leviticus 26:30)
‘And I shall destroy your high places, and
cut down your sun-pillars, and put your carcasses on the carcasses of your
idols. And my being shall loathe you. (Leviticus
26:31) ‘And
I shall turn your cities into ruins and lay your set-apart places waste, and
not smell your sweet fragrances. (Leviticus
26:32) ‘And I shall lay the land waste, and
your enemies who dwell in it shall be astonished at it. (Leviticus 26:33)
‘And I shall scatter you among the gentiles
and draw out a sword after you. And your land shall be desert and your cities
ruins, (Leviticus 26:34) and the land enjoy its Sabbaths as long as it lays waste
and you are in your enemies’ land. Then the land would rest and enjoy its
Sabbaths. (Leviticus 26:35) ‘As long as it lays waste it rests, for the
time it did not rest on your Sabbaths when you dwelt in it. (Leviticus 26:36)
‘And as for those of you who are left, I
shall send faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies, and the
sound of a shaken leaf shall cause them to flee. And they shall flee as though
retreating from a sword, and they shall fall when no one pursues. (Leviticus 26:37)
‘And they shall stumble over one another, as
from before a sword, when no one pursues. And you shall be unable to stand
before your enemies. (Leviticus 26:38) ‘And you shall
perish among the gentiles, (Heathen)
and the land of your enemies shall eat you up,
(Leviticus 26:39) and those of you
who are left rot away in their crookedness in your enemies’ lands, and also in
their fathers’ crookednesses rot away with them.
Note that His promises following are based on REPENTANCE (Teshuva) and OBEDIENCE!
(Leviticus 26:40) ‘But if they
confess their crookedness and the crookedness of their fathers, with their
trespass in which they trespassed against me, and that they also have walked
contrary to me, (Leviticus 26:41) and that I also have walked contrary to them and have
brought them into the land of their enemies – if their uncircumcised heart is
then humbled, and they accept the punishment of their crookedness, (Leviticus 26:42) then I shall remember my covenant with Yaʽaqoḇ, and also
my covenant with Yitsḥaq, and also remember my covenant with Aḇraham, and
remember the land. (Leviticus 26:43)
‘For the land was abandoned by them, and enjoying its Sabbaths while
lying waste without them, and they were paying for their crookedness, because
they rejected my right-rulings and because their being loathed my laws. (Leviticus 26:44)
‘And yet for all this, when they are in the land of their enemies, I
shall not reject them, nor shall I loathe them so as to destroy them and break
my covenant with them. I am יהוה their Elohim. (Leviticus 26:45)
‘Then
I shall remember for their sake the covenant of the ancestors whom I brought
out of the land of Mitsrayim before the eyes of the nations to be their Elohim.
I am יהוה.’
(Leviticus
26:46) These are the laws and the
right-rulings and the Torot 1 which יהוה made between Himself and the children of
Yisra’ĕl on Mount Sinai by the hand of Mosheh. Footnote:
1 Torot - plural of Torah, teaching.
See the blessing of OBEDIENCE- always a matter of
submitted or humbled willing hearts. We choose wisely when we submit and obey, IF
we submit and obey.
Isaiah 1:16 “Wash
yourselves, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your doings from before
my eyes. Stop doing evil! Isaiah 1:17 “Learn to
do good! Seek right-ruling, reprove the oppressor, defend the fatherless, plead
for the widow. Isaiah 1:18 “Come now, and let
us reason together,” says יהוה. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they
shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as
wool. Isaiah 1:19 “If you submit
and obey, you shall eat the good of the land; Isaiah 1:20 but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be
devoured by the sword,” for the mouth of יהוה
has spoken.
(Isaiah 49:24) Is prey taken from the mighty, and the
captives of the righteous delivered? (Isaiah 49:25) Yes- said יהוה, “Even the
captives of the mighty are taken away; and the prey of the ruthless is
delivered. I
strive with him who strives with you, and I save your children. Hey
now that’s FAMILY
BENEFITS! He contends with our enemies and delivers and saves our children!
Psalm 27:1 יהוה is my light and my deliverance; whom
should I fear? יהוה is the refuge of my life; whom should I
dread? Psalm 27:2 When evil-doers
come against me to eat up my flesh, my adversaries and my enemies, they shall
stumble and fall. Psalm 27:3 Though an army encamps against me, my heart does not
fear; though battle comes up against me, even then I would be trusting.
Psalm 27:4 One matter I asked of יהוה – this I seek: to dwell in the House of יהוה all the days of my life, to see the
pleasantness of יהוה, and to inquire in
His Hĕḵal. (Temple) Psalm 27:5 For in the day of evil He hides me in His
booth; in the covering of His Tent He hides me; on a rock He raises me up. Psalm 27:6 And now my head is lifted up above my
enemies all around me; and I offer in His Tent with shouts of joy; I sing, yea,
I sing praises to יהוה. Psalm 27:7 Hear, O יהוה,
when I cry with my voice! And show me favor, and answer me. Psalm 27:8 To my heart you have said, “Seek My face.”
Your face, יהוה, I seek. Psalm
27:9 Do not hide your face from
me; do not turn your servant away in displeasure; you have been my help; do not
leave me nor forsake me, O Elohim of my deliverance. Psalm
27:10 When my father and my mother have forsaken me, then יהוה does take me in. Psalm 27:11
Teach me your way, O יהוה, and lead me in a
smooth path, because of my enemies. Psalm 27:12
Do not give me over to the desire of my adversaries; for false witnesses have
risen against me, and they breathe out cruelty to me. Psalm
27:13 What if I had not believed to see the goodness of יהוה in the land of the living! Psalm
27:14 Wait on יהוה, be strong, and
let Him strengthen your heart! Wait, I say, on יהוה!
Here is our instruction to tame our tongues and
realizing no man can tame his own tongue- we yield and submit them to Yahuah! We need zero evil workings against us!
James 3:5 So too the
tongue is a little member yet boasts greatly. See how a little fire
kindles a great forest! James 3:6 And the
tongue is a fire, the world of unrighteousness. Among our members the tongue is
set, the one defiling the entire body, and setting on fire the wheel of life,
and it is set on fire by Gehenna. James 3:7 For
every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and
has been tamed by mankind. James 3:8 But no man is able to tame the tongue. (Comment: If NO man can tame it – only by our willing submission will Yahuah
-Yahweh do it for us) It is unruly, evil, filled with deadly poison. James 3:9 With it we bless our Elohim and Father, and
with it we curse men, who have been made in the likeness of Elohim.
(James 3:10) Out of the
same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brothers, this should not be so. (James 3:11)
Does the fountain send forth the sweet and the bitter from the same
opening? (James 3:12) My brothers, is a fig tree able to bear
olives, or a grapevine figs? So neither is a fountain able to make salt
and sweet water. (James 3:13) Who is wise and understanding among you? Let
him show by his good behavior his works in meekness of wisdom. (James 3:14)
But if you have bitter jealousy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not
boast against and lie against the truth. (James 3:15) This is not the wisdom coming down from
above, but it is earthly, unspiritual, and demonic. (James
3:16) For where
jealousy and self-seeking are, there is confusion and every foul deed.
(James 3:17)
But the wisdom from above is first clean, then peaceable, gentle, ready
to obey, filled with compassion and good fruits, without partiality and without
hypocrisy.
We
start our lives as believers as BABIES but we are commanded to grow up and walk
by trust and faith!
Obstacles and difficulties
will mature us (Hebrews 5:12)
For indeed, although by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to
teach you again the first elements of the Words of Elohim. And you have become
such as need milk and not solid food. (Hebrews 5:13) For everyone partaking of milk is
inexperienced in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe. (Hebrews 5:14)
But solid food is for the mature whose senses have been trained by
practice to discern both good and evil. Let us consider carefully loved one. Growing up spiritually is of vast
importance – perhaps even more important than our physical growing up. We are
to be found BLAMELESS at our King’s appearing so we must grow up now: (1Thessalonians 5:23) And
the Elohim of peace Himself set you completely apart, and your entire spirit,
and being (soul), and body - be preserved
blameless at the coming of our Master יהושע Messiah!
I have a certain recurring thought
to share. ARE WE REALLY COMMITTED TO BECOME TRUTH
SEARCHERS? My expectations are that He wants us in a good standing with
Him and others NOW for a reason. Yes,
I expect that reason is advancing on us living now- at the end of the age. Let’s
pray that we have His SHALOM and not CHAOS- not even civil wars that repentance
for ourselves and our leaders break forth! Comment- I have been shown there
will be a civil war in the USA promoted by our enemies; think U.N. and the
world dominion plans of the elite- and then Russia nukes our coasts and China
attacks also- ever wonder why? Yahuah can override all this wickedness for
believers if we are willing and obedient- SHEMAH- HEAR AND OBEY! We must have
His shalom no matter what happens! Yahuah is on the throne and He knows the end
from the beginning. He alone will judge the unrighteous and really does not
need our help- our goal of intensity MUST be to make sure our lives or not
among those JUDGED! Is it Isaiah 17:1? Is it Psalms 83? Is it Ezekiel 38-9; is
it Joel 3 which will bring “swift repayment” on us for dividing Jerusalem? Is
it Jeremiah 51? Is it Zechariah 5? Not sure, perhaps all of them along with
Ezekiel 38-9! Read these scriptures and ask the Ruach HaKodesh to reveal truth
to you concerning these days and scriptures. We were born for these days- let’s
make ourselves READY!
They are each worth our prayerful
considerations. Here’s the thought I believe He wants me to address for our
benefit BEFORE we must stand in front
of Him. “There
is NO reconciliation apart from repentance!” Anger is a manifestation of pain, and left
unchecked leads to rebellion. We have all been hurt, abandoned, rejected, or
made to feel inferior by someone (or many) during our lives. Let’s get free!
If these things were true when Yahusha
(Jesus) first came as a type of Joseph-
suffering servant to gather the 12 brothers (Family-
lost sheep of Israel) How much more are they true-- do you and I suppose
they are for us who are living now when He is coming again as King of Israel-
The Lion of Judah to restore His brothers (Israel-
You and I). I would expect the Kingdom of Heaven is closer now than then…remember
we must forgive to be
forgiven Loved One (YHWH moves mountains but bring a shovel- hehe). DO THE GOSPEL!
Look
with me once again at this key scripture in Isaiah: (Isaiah 1:18) “Come now, and let us reason
together,” says יהוה. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as
snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool. (Isaiah 1:19) “If you submit
and obey (willing and obedient), you
shall eat the good of the land; (Isaiah
1:20) but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured by the
sword,” for the mouth of יהוה
has spoken.
Consider: Enter His
Gates with thanksgiving;
and Enter His Courts with praise (Outer Courts- to the Inner Courts to the
Most Set Apart Place- or Holy of Holies)
this requires intimacy in worship- how close do you and I want to get to Him?
He is waiting and ready for those who seek Him with all their hearts!
Proverbs 3:5 Trust in יהוה with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; Proverbs 3:5 Trust
in יהוה with all your heart, and lean not on your
own understanding; Proverbs 3:6
Know Him in all your ways, and He makes all your paths straight.
No more time for playing religion
unless we want our testimony cut short- yes we will still go into the Kingdom without
His power to be a witness, if we are BORN AGAIN; but we will miss out for our
lack of DOING- as we are limited to the natural- flesh realm without His help
and POWER!
Act
1:7 And He said to them, “It is not for you
to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. Act 1:8 “But you shall receive power when the Set-apart Spirit has come upon you, and you
shall be my witnesses in
Yerushalayim, and in all Yehuḏah and Shomeron, and to the end of the
earth.”
Act
2:1 And when the Day of the Festival of Weeks had come, they were all with one mind in
one place. Act 2:2 And suddenly there came a
sound from the heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the entire
house where they were sitting. Act 2:3 And
there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and settled on each one of
them. Act 2:4 And they were all filled
with the Set-apart Spirit
and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them to speak.
We must humble ourselves and the directions of our lives by submitting our tongues
to Him and trusting Him. We remember, the tongue is set on fire by hell and no man can tame it- but HE can
and will; but only if we willingly submit! We too can offer mysteries to Yahuah
Elohim which no man can understand- it is our encrypted code and language to
heaven that He understands.
Can we trust our loving King and His Set-Apart Spirit- the Ruach
HaKodesh with our tongues or not?
ABSOLUTELY:
Luke
11:9 “And I say
to you: ask and it shall be given to you, seek and you shall find, knock and it
shall be opened to you. Luke 11:10 “For everyone asking receives, and
he who is seeking finds, and to him who is knocking it shall be opened. Luke 11:11 “And what father
among you whose son asks for bread shall give him a stone, or if he asks for a
fish shall give him a snake
instead of a fish, (Comment:
snakes and scorpions are shown to be the demonic realm of the enemy in Luke
10:19) Luke 11:12 or
if he asks for an egg shall give him a scorpion?
Luke 11:13 “If you then, being wicked, know how to give good gifts to
your children, how much more shall your Father from heaven give the Set-apart Spirit to those asking
Him!” Luke 11:14 And He
was casting out a demon, and it was dumb. And it came to be, when the demon had
gone out, that the dumb spoke. And the crowds marveled.
Loved One, before we
look at what YHWH told me to share with you again as a member of HIS FAMILY; (FAMILY GIFTS) let’s once again remind ourselves why you and I
and they are Family and as such you (we) are “Loved Ones”! I consider all “Truth Seekers” family
and therefore loved ones. Once again, here’s why; (Matthew 12:46)
While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brothers
stood without, desiring to speak with him.(Matthew 12:47)
Then one said unto him, Behold, your mother and your brothers stand
without, desiring to speak with you. (Matthew 12:48)
But he answered and said unto him that told him, who is my
mother? And
who are
my brothers? (Matthew
12:49) And he stretched
forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, behold my
mother and my
brothers! (Matthew 12:50) For whosoever shall do
the will
of my
Father which is
in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother. Understand if we are willing to humble ourselves
and submit to the will of YHWH and do the Father’s will (His TORAH /Instructions)
we are Yahusha (Jesus’) family!
Have WE inherited
lies? Surely we can imagine---Most Likely! Of course we have, or He would not address us that
way at the end of the age. We are the chosen generation- IF we make ourselves
ready.
We should also realize a truth: Jeremiah
prophesied that in the DAY OF
AFFLICTION (Comment: Hebrew idiom for Jacob’s Trouble or also known
as the Great Tribulation in the last days) we would recognize (YHWH reveals
truth) and become aware of the fact that we have added to and subtracted from
His FEASTS and commands! These are lies that really don’t please Him because
they have pagan roots and are manmade (added and subtracted from the WORD) traditions
that make the word of YHWH of none effect!
(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.
(Deuteronomy 4:2) “Do not add to the
Word which I command you, and do not take away from it 1, so as to guard the commands of יהוה your Elohim which I am commanding you. Footnote: 1 See also 12:32, Proverbs 30:6, Revelation
22:18-19.
Can we even imagine thinking we were serving
YHWH our whole lives’ and hear Him tell us we inherited lies and were
workers of Lawlessness (Torahlessness)- that He never knew us and to depart from us; that we actually were
disobedient following pagan traditions we inherited? This experience would and will cause many to go screaming in
horror, weeping and gnashing of teeth, into the flames of hell! Oh Yah- Change us NOW! Reveal your TRUTH to
us that we may be pleasing in your sight! Nothing is too hard for you YHWH! You are family (LOVED
ONES) if you are humble
enough to be a truth searcher. One who desires truth and obedience to your Creator- more than
you want acceptance from men and their traditions.
This group of LOVED ONES would include us who
are willing to pick up our burial stake and follow Him. Why do I use burial stake? Because you and I must be willing
to decrease as He increases in us. He changes not and that only leaves
you and I to do the changing, Yahusha (Jesus)
put it like this: (Matthew 16:24) Then said Yahusha (Jesus)
to his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. (Matthew 16:25) For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. (Matthew 16:26) For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
We must be willing to humble ourselves and
accept the engrafted word when we discover truth.
This losing our life for Him is not just
physical. As we are changed into His image we are losing our old person (ality) and gaining HIM! To the
degree we are hungry for Him we will be changed- no more or less. (Matthew 5:6) Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Let’s get hungry for more of Him and less of us- I
suspect we will be most happy not to hear these words from Yahusha (Jesus)!
(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.
FAMILY PROTOCOL IS IMPORTANT-
(Especially if we expect gifts- hehe) (Matthew 15:4) “For
Elohim has commanded, saying, ‘Respect (honor)
your father and your mother,’ and,
‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’ (Ephesians 6:1)
Children, obey your parents in the Master, for this is right. (Ephesians 6:2)
“Respect
(honor) your father and mother,”
which is the first command with promise, (Ephesians
6:3) in order that it might be
well with you, and you might live long on the earth.” Finally- let’s look at
the KJV about renewing our minds in His Scripture promises regarding knowing
His will in Romans 12:1-2 (Soul- mind
will and intellect) and see: (3 John 1:2) Beloved, I
wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy
soul prospereth. Do we want to be blessed to be a blessing
like Isaac was? Let’s give our parents honor and more importantly (possibly setting precedence) our
Heavenly Father honor and LIVE UNDER AN
OPEN HEAVEN! Do we really understand that obedience brings blessings and
disobedience brings curses?
Approaching YHWH and entering His
presence!
Also realize that if you are in great warfare- enter His gates (Doorway) giving
thanks- remember the old song- “Count your blessings, count them one by one,
count your many blessings see what YHWH’s done and then PRAISE HIM as demon
spirits cannot hang around and get you down when He is present! Hallelu-YAH! (Psalms 22:2) O My Elohim, I call by day, but you do not
answer; and by night, but I find no rest. (Psalms
22:3) Yet
you are set-apart YHVH, Enthroned on the praises of
Yisra’ĕl. KJV

Set Apart- Levites
(Numbers 1:47) But the Lĕwites
were not registered among them by their fathers’ tribe, (Numbers 1:48) because יהוה
had spoken to Mosheh, saying, (Numbers 1:49)
“Only the tribe of Lĕwi you do not register, nor take a census of them among
the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Numbers 1:50) “Instead, appoint the Lĕwites over the
Dwelling Place of the Witness, over all its furnishings, and over all that
belongs to it. They bear the Dwelling Place and all its furnishings, and they
attend to it, and camp around the Dwelling Place. (Numbers
1:51) “And when the Dwelling
Place is to go forward, the Lĕwites take it down. And when the Dwelling Place
is to be set up, the Lĕwites set it up. And the stranger who comes near is put
to death. (Numbers 1:52) “And the children of Yisra’ĕl shall pitch their tents,
everyone by his own camp, everyone by his own banner, according to their divisions, (Numbers 1:53) but let the Lĕwites camp around the Dwelling Place of the
Witness, so that there be no wrath on the congregation of the children of
Yisra’ĕl. And the Lĕwites shall guard the duty of the Dwelling Place of the
Witness.” (Numbers 1:54) And the
children of Yisra’ĕl did according to all that יהוה
commanded Mosheh, so they did.
YHWH has ORDER in the camp!

divisions of the camps: six hundred and three thousand five hundred and fifty. (Numbers 2:33)
But the Lĕwites were not registered among the children of Yisra’ĕl, as יהוה commanded Mosheh. (Numbers

commanded Mosheh. So they camped by their banners and so they departed, each
one by his clan, according to their fathers’ houses.
Protocol and the Set Apart
(Numbers 3:1) And these are the generations of Aharon and
Mosheh when יהוה spoke with Mosheh on Mount Sinai. (Numbers 3:2)
And these are the names of the sons of Aharon: Naḏaḇ, the first-born,
and Aḇihu, Elʽazar, and Ithamar. (Numbers 3:3) These are the names of the sons of Aharon,
the anointed priests, whom he ordained to act as priests. (Numbers 3:4)
And Naḏaḇ and Aḇihu had died before יהוה
when they brought strange fire before יהוה
in the Wilderness of Sinai. And they had no children. So Elʽazar and Ithamar
acted as priests in the presence of Aharon their father. (Numbers 3:5)
And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, Numbers 3:6)
“Bring the tribe of Lĕwi near, and set them before Aharon the priest,
and they shall serve him, (Numbers 3:7) and shall guard his duty and the duty of all
the congregation before the Tent of Meeting, to do the service of the Dwelling
Place. (Numbers 3:8) “And they shall guard all the furnishings of
the Tent of Meeting, and the duty of the children of Yisra’ĕl, to do the
service of the Dwelling Place. (Numbers 3:9) “And you shall give the Lĕwites to Aharon and
his sons. They are the given ones, given to him from among the children of
Yisra’ĕl. (Numbers 3:10) “And appoint Aharon and his sons, and they
shall guard their priesthood. And the stranger who comes near shall be put to
death.” (Numbers 3:11) And יהוה
spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Numbers 3:12) “Now look,
I myself have taken the Lĕwites from among the children of Yisra’ĕl instead of
every first-born who opens the womb among the children of Yisra’ĕl. And the
Lĕwites shall be mine, (Numbers 3:13) because
all the first-born are Mine. On the day that I struck all the first-born in the
land of Mitsrayim, I set apart to
myself all the first-born in Yisra’ĕl, both man and beast. They are Mine, I am יהוה.” (Numbers 3:14) And יהוה
spoke to Mosheh in the Wilderness of Sinai, saying, (Numbers
3:15) “Register the children of Lĕwi by their fathers’ houses, by their
clans. Register
every male from a month old and above.” (Numbers
3:16) So Mosheh registered them
according to the word of יהוה, as he had been
commanded. (Numbers 3:17) And these were the sons of Lĕwi by their
names: Gĕreshon, and Qehath, and Merari. (Numbers
3:18) And these are the names of

westward, behind the Dwelling Place, (Numbers 3:24)
and the leader of the fathers’ house of the Gĕreshonites: Elyasaph, son of
La’ĕl. (Numbers 3:25) And the duty of the children of Gĕreshon in
the Tent of Meeting was the Dwelling Place, and the tent with its covering, and
the covering of the door of the Tent of Meeting, (Numbers
3:26) and the screens of the courtyard and the covering of the door of
the courtyard, which is around the Dwelling Place and the altar, and their
cords, according to all its service. (Numbers 3:27) And from Qehath came the clan of the
Amramites, and the clan of the Yitsharites, and the clan of the Ḥeḇronites,
and the clan of the Uzzi’ĕlites. These were the clans of the Qehathites. (Numbers 3:28)
In number, all the males, from a month old and above, were eight
thousand six hundred, guarding the duty of the set-apart place. (Numbers 3:29)
The clans of the children of Qehath were to camp on the south side of
the Dwelling Place. (Numbers 3:30) The leader of the fathers’ house of the clans
of the Qehathites; was Elitsaphan, son of Uzzi’ĕl. (Numbers
3:31) And their duty was the ark,
and the table, and the lampstand, and the altars, and the utensils of the
set-apart place used in the service, and the covering, and all its service. (Numbers 3:32)
And Elʽazar, son of Aharon the priest, was to be chief over the leaders
of the Lĕwites, with oversight of those who guard the duty of the set-apart
place. (Numbers 3:33) From Merari came the clan of the Maḥlites

The number of their registered ones; all the males from a month old and
above, were six thousand two hundred. (Numbers 3:35) The leader of the fathers’ house of the clans
of Merari; was Tsuri’ĕl, son of Aḇiḥayil. These were to camp on the north

Merari was the boards of the Dwelling Place, and its bars, and its columns, and
its sockets, and its utensils, and all its service, (Numbers
3:37) and the columns of the courtyard all around, with their sockets,
and their pegs, and their cords. (Numbers 3:38) And those who were to camp before the
Dwelling Place on the east, before the Tent of Meeting, were Mosheh and Aharon,
and his sons, guarding the duty of the set-apart place, and the duty of the
children of Yisra’ĕl. But the stranger who came near was to be put to death. (Numbers 3:39)
All the registered ones of the Lĕwites, whom Mosheh and Aharon
registered at the command of יהוה, by their clans, all
the males from a month old and above, were twenty-two thousand. (Numbers 3:40)
And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Register all the
first-born males of the children of Yisra’ĕl from a month old and above, and
take the number of their names. (Numbers 3:41) “And you shall take the Lĕwites for Me – I am
יהוה – instead of all the first-born among the
children of Yisra’ĕl, and the livestock of the Lĕwites instead of all the
first-born among the livestock of the children of Yisra’ĕl.” (Numbers 3:42)
And Mosheh registered all the first-born among the children of Yisra’ĕl
as יהוה had commanded him. (Numbers 3:43) And all the
first-born males, by the number of names, from one month old and above of their
registered ones, were twenty-two thousand two hundred and seventy-three. (Numbers 3:44)
And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Numbers 3:45) “Take the Lĕwites instead of all the
first-born among the children of Yisra’ĕl, and the livestock of the Lĕwites
instead of their livestock. And the Lĕwites shall be Mine, I am יהוה. (Numbers 3:46) “And for the ransom of the two hundred and
seventy-three of the first-born of the children of Yisra’ĕl, who are more than
the number of the Lĕwites, (Numbers 3:47) you shall take five sheqels for each one,
head by head – take it by the sheqel of the set-apart place, the sheqel of
twenty gĕrahs. (Numbers 3:48) “And you shall give the silver, the ransom of
those who are in excess among them, to Aharon and his sons.” (Numbers 3:49)
And Mosheh took the ransom silver from those who were over and above those
who were ransomed by the Lĕwites. (Numbers 3:50) From the first-born of the children of
Yisra’ĕl he took the silver, one thousand three hundred and sixty-five pieces,
according to the sheqel of the set-apart place. (Numbers
3:51) And Mosheh gave their
ransom silver to Aharon, and to his sons, according to the word of יהוה, as יהוה
had commanded Mosheh.
More Protocol
(Numbers 4:1) And יהוה spoke to
Mosheh, and to Aharon, saying, (Numbers 4:2) “Take a census of the sons of Qehath from
among the children of Lĕwi, by their clans, by their fathers’ house, (Numbers 4:3)
from thirty years old and above, even to fifty years old, all who enter
the service to do the work in the Tent of Meeting. (Numbers
4:4) “This is the service of the
sons of Qehath in the Tent of Meeting, the most set-apart matters: (Numbers 4:5) “At the breaking of camp, Aharon and
his sons shall come, and they shall take down the covering veil and cover the
ark of the Witness with it, (Numbers 4:6) and
shall put on it a covering of fine leather, and spread over that an all-blue
wrapper, and shall insert its poles. (Numbers 4:7) “And on the table of showbread they shall
spread a blue wrapper, and shall put on it the dishes, and the ladles, and the
bowls, and the jars for pouring, and the showbread on it. (Numbers 4:8)
“And they shall spread over them a scarlet wrapper, and cover the same
with a covering of fine leather, and shall insert its poles, (Numbers 4:9)
and shall take a blue wrapper and cover the lampstand of the light, with
its lamps, and its snuffers, and its trays, and all its oil vessels, by which
they serve it. (Numbers 4:10) “And they shall put it with all its utensils
in a covering of fine leather, and put it on a bar. (Numbers
4:11) “And over the golden altar
they shall spread a blue wrapper, and cover it with a covering of fine leather,
and shall insert its poles, (Numbers 4:12) and shall take all the utensils of service
with which they serve in the set-apart place, and shall put them in a blue
wrapper, cover them with a covering of fine leather, and put them on a bar, (Numbers 4:13)
and shall remove the ashes from the altar, and spread a purple wrapper
over it, (Numbers 4:14) and shall put on it all its utensils by which
they serve there: the fire holders, the forks, and the shovels, and the basins,
and all the utensils of the altar, and shall spread on it a covering of fine
leather, and insert its poles. (Numbers 4:15) “And when Aharon and his sons have finished
covering the set-apart objects and all the furnishings of the Set-apart
Place at the breaking of camp, then the sons of Qehath shall come to lift them,
but let them not touch that which is set-apart, lest they die. These matters
are the burden of the sons of Qehath in the Tent of Meeting. (Numbers 4:16)
“And the oversight of Elʽazar, son of Aharon the priest, is the oil for
the light, and the sweet incense, and the daily grain offering, and the
anointing oil, and the oversight of all the Dwelling Place and all that is in
it, with the set-apart place and its furnishings.” (Numbers
4:17) And יהוה
spoke to Mosheh, and to Aharon, saying, (Numbers 4:18)
“Do not cut off the tribe of the clans of the Qehathites from among the
Lĕwites, (Numbers 4:19) but do this to them,
and they shall live and not die when they approach the most set-apart objects:
Aharon and his sons shall go in and appoint each of them to his service and his
burden. (Numbers 4:20) “They are not, however, to go in to watch
while the set-apart objects are being covered, lest they die.”
Put away whorings which is adultery is
idolatry to YHWH. He removes them “In That Day” a Hebrew Idiom for the Day of
YHWH’s vengeance- Jacob’s Trouble- The Day of the Lord!
(Hosea 2:1) “Say to your brothers, ‘O my people,’ and to
your sisters, ‘O, compassioned one.’ (Hosea 2:2) “Strive with your mother, strive, for she is
not my wife, nor am I her Husband! Let her put away her whorings from her face, and her
adulteries from between her breasts, (Hosea
2:3) lest I strip her naked, and
shall set her up as on the day she was born, and shall make her like a
wilderness, and shall set her like a dry land, and shall put her to death with
thirst. (Hosea 2:4) “And I shall not have compassion on her
children, for they are the children of whorings. (Hosea
2:5) “For their mother has
whored, she who conceived them has acted shamelessly. For she said, ‘I go after
my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my linen, my oil and
my drink. Hosea 2:6) “Therefore, see, I am
hedging up your way with thorns, and I shall wall her in, so that she does not
find her paths. (Hosea 2:7) “And she shall pursue her lovers but not
overtake them, and shall seek them but not find them. Then she shall say, ‘Let
me go and return to my first husband, for then it was better for me than now.’ (Hosea 2:8)
“And she did not acknowledge that I gave her grain, and new wine, and
oil, and increased her silver and gold which they prepared for Baʽal.
(Hosea 2:9) “Therefore I shall turn back and
shall take my grain in its time and My new wine in its season, and I shall take
away My wool and My linen covering her nakedness. (Hosea
2:10) “And now I shall uncover
her shame before the eyes of her lovers, and no one shall deliver her from my
hand. (Hosea 2:11) “And I shall cause all her rejoicing, her
festivals, her New Moons, and her Sabbaths, even all her appointed times, to
cease, (Hosea 2:12) and lay waste her vines and her fig trees, of
which she has said, ‘these are my rewards that my lovers have given me.’ And I
shall make them a forest, and the beasts of the field shall eat them. (Hosea 2:13)
“And I shall punish her for the days of the Baʽals to which she burned
incense and adorned herself with her rings and jewelry, and went after her
lovers, and forgot Me,” declares יהוה. (Hosea 2:14)
“Therefore, see, I am alluring her, and shall lead her into the
wilderness, and shall speak to her heart, (Hosea 2:15)
and give to her vineyards from there, and the Valley of Aḵor as a door of
expectation. And there she shall respond as in the days of her youth, as in the
day when she came up from the land of Mitsrayim. (Hosea
2:16) “And it shall be, in that day,” declares יהוה, “that you
call Me ‘My Husband,’ and no longer call Me ‘My Baʽal.’ (Hosea 2:17)
“And I shall remove the names of the Baʽals from her mouth, and they
shall no more be remembered by their name. (Hosea
2:18) “And in that day I shall
make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field, and with the birds of
the heavens, and with the creeping creatures of the ground, when bow, and sword,
and battle I break from the earth. And I shall make them lie down in safety. (Hosea 2:19)
“And I shall take you as a bride unto me forever, and take you as a
bride unto me in righteousness, and in right-ruling, and kindness and
compassion. (Hosea 2:20) “And I shall take you as a bride unto me in
trustworthiness, and you shall know יהוה.
(Hosea 2:21)
“And it shall be in that day that I answer,” Declares יהוה, “that I answer the heavens, and they answer the earth, (Hosea 2:22) and the earth answer the grain and the
new wine and the oil, and they answer Yizreʽĕl. (Hosea
2:23) “And I shall sow her for
myself in the earth, and I shall have compassion on her who had not obtained
compassion. And I shall say to those who were not my people, ‘You are my
people,’ while they say, ‘My Elohim!’ ”
FAMILY GIFTS are for the helping others- let’s receive them and walk in
these!
YHWH does NOT want us ignorant concerning spiritual
gifts—let’s not remain ignorant- but study and show ourselves approved- rightly
dividing the Word of Truth! Yahusha has given us His power to trample on snakes
and scorpions (All the demonic realm
opposing us with stormy facts) and OVERCOME all the power of the
enemy! So
let’s read and receive power! Honestly, the more we read and believe and DO-
the more we will be trusted and trust Him that we may DO His works on the
earth. These are given (NOT for
self-exaltation or our own benefit) for the benefit of others as the Ruach
HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) wills and intends. Nine gifts! Let’s consider carefully who we ascribe
these gifts to. To assign the works of the Ruach to works of hasatan is called “Blaspheming the Set Apart-Ruach” and
will NOT be forgiven- in this age OR in the age to come! No one can make us
receive these- YOU AND I MUST BE OPEN TO BE
USED AND HUNGRY FOR TRUTH!
(1 Corinthians 12:1) And concerning spiritual
gifts, brothers, I do not wish you to be ignorant.
(1 Corinthians 12:2) You know that you
were gentiles, 1 led away to the dumb idols, even as you
might be led. Footnote: 1 Ephesians 2:11, Ephesians
4:17, 1 Peter 4:3, 1 Thessalonians 4:5. (1
Corinthians 12:3) Therefore I
make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of Elohim says יהושע is a curse, and no one is able to say that יהושע is Master except by the Set-apart Spirit. (1 Corinthians 12:4) And there are different kinds of gifts, but
the same Spirit. (1 Corinthians 12:5) There are different kinds of services, but
the same Master. (1 Corinthians 12:6) And there are different kinds of workings,
but it is the same Elohim who is working all in all. (1
Corinthians 12:7) And to each one
is given the manifestation of the Spirit for profiting, (1 Corinthians 12:8) for to
one is given a word of wisdom
through the Spirit, and to another a word
of knowledge according to the same Spirit, (1
Corinthians 12:9) and to another belief-faith- trust by the same
Spirit, and to another gifts of
healing by the same Spirit, (1 Corinthians
12:10) and to another operations of powers, and to
another prophecy, and to
another discerning of spirits,
and to another kinds of unknown
tongues, and to another interpretation
of tongues. (1 Corinthians 12:11) But one and the same Spirit works all these,
distributing to each one individually as He intends. (1
Corinthians 12:12) For as the
body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being
many, are one body, so also is the Messiah. (1
Corinthians 12:13) For indeed by
one Spirit we were all immersed into one body, whether Yehuḏim or Greeks,
whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink into one Spirit. (1 Corinthians 12:14)
For indeed the body is not one member but many. (1
Corinthians 12:15) If the foot
says, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” does it therefore
not belong to the body? (1 Corinthians 12:16) And if the ear says, “Because I am not an
eye, I do not belong to the body,” does it therefore not belong to the body? (1 Corinthians 12:17)
If all the body was an eye, where would be the hearing? If all the body
hearing, where would be the smelling? (1 Corinthians
12:18) But now Elohim has set the
members, each one of them, in the body, even as He pleased. (1 Corinthians 12:19)
And if they all had been one member, where would the body be? (1 Corinthians 12:20)
And now, there are indeed many members, but one body.
Loved One,
my prayer for you is that you humble yourself by your own free will and hunger
and thirst for His power to help you help others in the days ahead. Someday
(Soon?) we will face times of fiery trials and troubles and likely “Jacob’s
Trouble”. I pray that you do exploits in
His name and FEAR NOT! Hallelu-Yah- it is time we draw near! If you are willing
and obedient as you and I humble ourselves- we will do exploits and mighty
deeds that the enemy will have no authority against! We fear nothing—except we hold in awe our Creator and loving Father!
Shalom to
your home Loved One,
Thurston

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 Yehuḏite 1,
saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that Elohim is with you.” ’ ” Footnote: 1 John 4:22.
