Shabbat Shalom Loved One!
Click here to see some you tube natural health links for healing. YHWH is restoring all things and that
includes us who were once DRY BONES! Mighty is He whose mercy
endures forever! All who call on His name will be delivered! Why
we are on a different schedule of the Torah Cycle than the mainstream and the
Orthodox? For me it is about restoration of all things- explanation is
continued at end of this week’s study…
Truth searcher why MUST we be sure we are open
minded, diligently dividing the word of TRUTH and fleeing vain traditions we
have learned from the forefathers of our faith? Yahshua warns us; (Matthew 15:7) “Hypocrites! Yeshayahu
rightly prophesied about you, saying, (Matthew 15:8) ‘This people draw
near to Me with their mouth, and respect Me with their lips, but their heart is
far from Me. (Matthew 15:9) ‘But in vain do they
worship Me, teaching as teachings the commands of men.’” 1 Footnote: 1 Isaiah
29:13, Mark 7:7, 2 Kings 17:19.
Loved One, we need to become very aware of our
need to blow a Trumpet and call a solemn assembly with fasting and prayer. You
hopefully have heard the song- THESE ARE THE DAYS OF ELIJAH where the dry bones
are becoming as flesh- days of famine and darkness and sword—still we are the
ones in the desert…. Crying… declaring the words of the Lord- BEHOLD HE COMES
riding on the clouds…Loved One, in case you haven’t noticed- THESE ARE THE DAYS
OF ELIJAH! I also have links for those who want to become more light and less
darkness as Yahshua dwells in us. Yahshua showed us what we should look like (As Moshe did also) at the
transfiguration – the GLORY should rise upon us, but in reality very few will
draw that near. Who will fast and pray and show Him with their action of faith-
they want intimacy with Him? Not many- most will talk the walk—but few will
show Him by their actions. The decision is ours alone.
This is the third week I have put these
links up- I must say- if you are serious about producing fruit in the Kingdom-
during trying and perilous times- consider carefully these links and studies.
Here are links again for
study-GAZING INTO GLORY Dr. Bruce Allen:
A link I also enjoyed- Set
your affection on Heavenly Things Neville Johnson:
Note below how His glory in us reveals
we are the LIGHT of the world- we must become transparent so that His glory
will make us shine like Yahshua shown and like Moshe shown from His presence!
His GLORY in us—our hope! They will come to our light- and we will be a demonstration
of the POWER OF YAHWEH- HIM in us- the hope of GLORY!
Isaiah
60:1 “Arise, shine, for your light has come! And the GLORY (esteem) of יהוה has risen upon you. Isaiah 60:2 “For
look, darkness covers the earth, and thick darkness the peoples. But יהוה arises over you, and His esteem is seen upon
you. Isaiah 60:3 “And the
gentiles shall come to your light 1,
and sovereigns to the brightness of your rising. Footnote:
1 Isaiah 60:19, 20, Revelation 21:23, 24 Isaiah 60:4 “Lift up your eyes all around and see:
all of them have gathered, they have come to you; your sons come from afar, and
your daughters are supported on the side. Isaiah 60:5
“Then you shall see and be bright, and
your heart shall throb and swell, for the wealth of the sea is turned to you,
the riches of the gentiles come to you. His glory in us!
Colossians
1:21
And you, who once were estranged and enemies in the mind by wicked
works, but now He has completely restored to favor Colossians
1:22 in the body of His flesh
through death, to present you set-apart, and blameless, and unreprovable before
Him, Colossians 1:23 if indeed you continue in the belief (If you believe Hebraically- you do- or you obey Him- it is Faith in
action), founded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the expectation
of the Good News which you heard, which was proclaimed to every creature under
the heaven, of which I, Sha’ul, became a servant, Colossians
1:24 who now rejoice in my
sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh what is lacking in Messiah’s
afflictions, for the sake of His Body, which is the assembly, Colossians 1:25
of which I became a servant according to the administration of Elohim
which was given to me for you, to fill the word of Elohim, Colossians 1:26
the secret which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now
has been revealed to His set-apart ones, Colossians
1:27 to whom Elohim desired to make known what are the riches of the esteem
of this secret among the gentiles: which is Messiah in
you,1 the expectancy of GLORY (esteem), Footnote: 1 See Messiah
in you in the Explanatory Notes. Colossians
1:28 whom we announce, warning every man and teaching every man in all
wisdom, in order to present every man perfect in Messiah יהושע,
Colossians 1:29 for which I also labor,
striving according to the working of Him who works in me in power.
Here is some great
advice- read and study Philippians 4- Keep Calm and relax- everything will come
into the light-- TRUTH will be revealed! Great thoughts! First off- yes we are
aware and thank you Mountain Man- (Great
expose attached for those who want to look) Most of us have known and agree
with the expose because the enemy has no plans of blessing believers- ever- ha
ha but he's not in charge. The enemy comes and shows us the hopelessness -the
storm- (Likened to what he did to Peter
as he walked on water) and wants us to FOCUS on the storm and IMAGINE AND
THINK ON THAT. We are not to be ignorant of hasatan's devices- but we
then should remember the greater one resides in us--He is the hope of glory!
What we imagine becomes our reality. (Or else we would not be judged
as adulterers for lusting for another in our thoughts) As a man
thinks- so is he. We must train our thoughts (Take them captive to the Gospel) and guard our minds and our
words. Our words are spirit- and come forth from what's stored up in our hearts
and minds- so we must take our thoughts captive. Our words will bring us either
life or death- that's why we will be held accountable for ever idle or careless
word we speak- for by our WORDS we will be acquitted (Blessed) or by our words we will be condemned (Cursed). He has set before us all life and death- blessings and
curses and then warns us- CHOOSE LIFE!
What does that glory in us reveal? What does it look like
in action?
Psalm 72:18
Blessed be יהוה Elohim,
Elohim of Yisra’ĕl, He alone is doing wonders! Psalm
72:19 And blessed be His Glorious Name forever! And let all the
earth Be filled with His Glory. Amĕn and Amĕn.
Isaiah 6:1
In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and
lifted up, and the train of His robe
filled the temple. Isaiah 6:2 Above it stood
seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he
covered his feet, and with two he flew. Isaiah 6:3
And one cried to another and said: "Holy, holy, holy is Yahweh of hosts; The whole earth is full of His glory!"
Colossians 1:27 Yahweh
chose to make known to them this glorious mystery regarding the Gentiles—which
is Messiah in you, the
hope of glory!
Galatians 2:20 “I have been
crucified with Messiah, and I no longer live, but Messiah lives in me.1 And that which I now live in
the flesh I live by belief in the Son of Elohim, who loved me and gave Himself
for me. Footnote: 1 Romans 8:10, 2
Corinthians 6:16, 2 Corinthians 13:5, Ephesians3:17, Colossians 1:27, 1 John
4:4.
Ephesians 1:16 I
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 Glory,
would give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, Ephesians 1:18
the eyes of your understanding 1
being enlightened, so that you know what is the expectation (Hope) of His calling, and what are the riches of the Glory 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.
His Glory in us in action-
Here’s how we should look- and even greater as we walk
like Yahshua walked!
2 Kings 6:1 And
the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, “See, the place where we dwell with
you is too small for us. 2 Kings 6:2 “Please,
let us go to the Yardĕn, and let every man take a log from there, and let us
make there a place to dwell.” And he answered, “Go.” 2
Kings 6:3 Then the one said, “Please undertake to go with your
servants.” And he answered, I shall go.” 2 Kings 6:4
And he went with them, and they came to the Yardĕn, and they cut down trees. 2 Kings 6:5 And it came to be, as one was cutting
down a tree, that the iron axe head fell into the water. And he cried out and
said, “Oh my master, for it was borrowed!” 2 Kings 6:6
And the man of Elohim said, “Where did it fall?” And he showed him the place.
And he cut off a stick, and threw it in there, and made the iron float. 2 Kings 6:7 And he said, “Pick it up.” And he reached
out his hand and took it. 2 Kings 6:8 And the sovereign
of Aram was fighting against Yisra’ĕl, and took counsel with his servants,
saying, “My camp is in such and such a place.” 2 Kings
6:9 And the man of Elohim sent to the sovereign of Yisra’ĕl,
saying, “Be on guard, do not pass this place, for the Arameans are coming down
there.” 2 Kings 6:10 The sovereign of Yisra’ĕl then sent to the
place of which the man of Elohim had spoken to him, and warned him, so that he
was on his guard there, not once, and not twice. 2
Kings 6:11 And
this greatly troubled the heart of the sovereign of Aram. And he called his
servants and said to them, “Declare to me! Who of us is for the sovereign of
Yisra’ĕl?” 2 Kings 6:12 And one of
his servants said, “None, my master, O sovereign, for Elisha, the prophet who
is in Yisra’ĕl, declares to the sovereign of Yisra’ĕl the words that you speak
in your bedroom.” 2 Kings 6:13 And he said, “Go
and see where he is, so that I send and get him.” And it was reported to him,
saying, “See, he is in Dothan.” 2 Kings 6:14 And he sent horses and chariots and a great army there, and they came
by night and surrounded the city. 2 Kings
6:15 And the servant of the man of Elohim rose early
and went out, and saw an army, surrounding the city with horses and chariots.
And his servant said to him, “Oh, my master! What do we do?” 2 Kings 6:16 And he answered, “Do not fear,
for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” 2 Kings 6:17 And Elisha prayed, and said, “יהוה, I pray, open his eyes and let him see.” And יהוה opened the eyes of the young man, and he looked and
saw the mountain covered with horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. 2 Kings 6:18 And when they came down to him, Elisha
prayed to יהוה,
and said, “Strike this nation with blindness, I pray.”
And He struck them with blindness according to the word of Elisha. 2 Kings 6:19 And Elisha said to them, “This is not
the way, nor is this the city. Follow me, and let me bring you to the man whom
you seek.” But he led them to Shomeron. 2 Kings 6:20
And it came to be, when they had come to Shomeron, that Elisha said, “יהוה, open the
eyes of these men so that they see.” And יהוה opened their eyes, and they looked and saw
they were in the midst of Shomeron! 2 Kings 6:21
And when the sovereign of Yisra’ĕl saw them, he said to Elisha, “My father,
should I smite? Should I smite?” 2 Kings 6:22
But he said, “Do not smite. Do you smite those whom you have taken captive
with our sword and your bow? Set food
and water before them and let them eat and drink and go to their master.” 2 Kings 6:23 And he made a great feast for them. And
after they ate and drank, he let them go, and they went to their master. And
the bands of Aramean raiders came no more into the land of Yisra’ĕl.
Yes, loved one, we know
whom we have believed and that He is well able to finish the thing He started!
Or many of us would have never ever bought into what everyone called a scam of
the Global Reset! This is Deuteronomy 8:17-18-19 and 20. Pay close attention to
all of those verses! What they- the elite satanic globalists- HAVE to do to
save their control and tighten their grip on the world and its population; will
allow us the wealth transfer to DO THE GOSPEL even
for places of REFUGE worldwide. Where prayer, praise and provision even
angelic protection from the wicked devices and schemes of hell are unleashed on
an unsuspecting and fast asleep world- the church or body of Messiah must
awaken from their slumber now and arise and shine and become the light of this
ever darkening world! We are to pray that we be made worthy to escape all these
things (Not a pre-tribulation rapture
IMO) and STAND at His appearing! If we keep His Feasts (These in Hebrew are APPOINTMENTS or Set Apart Seasons He has with His
people- they are the shadow pictures of the good things to come) it becomes
very clear that if or WHEN we are at the LAST Trump- then the Day of Judgment (Or atonement) comes 9 days later called
You Kippur. Those 7-8 days between Feast of Trumpets and Judgement Day- IMO are
when the bowls of wrath come forth and His wrath is not stored up for His
people) This time comes to test all who are alive on the whole earth to see who
the Bride really is- as He is not coming for a harlot bride and dying again for
her sin, He is coming for a BRIDE who makes herself ready- without spot or
blemish! We really need to grasp that there will be a people group who become
sons and daughters and are alive at the Last Trump- busy doing the Gospel and
about our Father's business- those who will walk like Yahshua walked! The
greater one is in us- we are to produce fruit that remains- He is preparing a
place or places for us- and His glory will shine on us as we fear nothing!
Remember when we pray we
must believe we have the thing we ask for and we will have whatsoever we SAY. Yahweh (As He told Jeremiah) is watching over
His word to perform it! The power of life and death is in OUR tongues- not
hasatan's tongue. Yahshua destroyed his works- he has no power of his own- but
Yahshua did not destroy our tongues- they have power of life and death. When we
believe FACTS are truth- we have agreed with the god of this world and not the
good report.
We must now all grow up
spiritually and speak the promise and words of Yahweh. Not the giants in the
land (Problems and plan of hasatan)
Do we see how walking according to the facts is walking in the flesh? We must
walk by the spirit or be useless to Kingdom purposes and fall prey to the
enemy's plans and schemes. How do we walk by the spirit and
not the flesh? We fight the good fight of faith (It's the only fight required of us- Yahshua already won the war)
We speak agreement with His promises- He told us- My words are spirit and life
and health and healing to your flesh. We stand and have patience that after we
have done the will of Yahweh - we may receive His promise- but without standing
(Faith with action) it is impossible
to please Him- because He cannot reward us based on need---or there would be no
need on the planet- He rewards those that diligently seek Him and understand
that He is a rewarder of those that trust Him! Here’s a toast to all you
believers who---NEVER GIVE UP! HalleluYAH!
Let's
remember who we are - those that OVERCOME. Let's not just know about Him but
have intimacy with Him in relationship! Shalom to your hearts and homes loved
ones! Let's use this time to draw very near to our King- He is worthy of our
worship- we should seek His face and be dancing unashamed as King David danced
before Him!
Loved One, we really have inherited lies so great that is beyond
most of our imaginations to believe how deceitful hasatan is and how we
are greatly deceived for the most part. Most of us know by now there is NO
pre-tribulation rapture but our Elohim is mighty and even in the fiery furnace
our loving Creator can and will deliver us who trust Him! I suspect most of us
don’t realize though- how close we are and how bad things will be and how we
ought to be serious and seek Him while He may be found? Yahshua warned us
through Jeremiah (Remember Yahshua is the Word and always will be) and He will
deliver us even in fiery trials- all He requires is that we believe Him
and our actions show it;
(Jeremiah 16:19) O יהוה, (Yahweh) my
strength and my stronghold and my refuge, in the day of distress the gentiles shall
come to you from the ends of the earth and say, “Our fathers have inherited only
falsehood(lies), futility, and there is no value in them.”1 Footnote: 1 See
Psalms 147:19, Isaiah 2:3, Isaiah 60:2-3, John 4:22, Romans 2:20, Romans 3:2,
Romans 9:4 (Jeremiah 16:20) Would a man
make mighty ones for himself, which are not mighty ones? (Jeremiah 16:21) “Therefore see, I
am causing them to know, this time I cause them to know my hand and my might.
And they shall know that My Name is יהוה!” (YHWH- Yahweh)
KJV: (Jeremiah 16:19) O LORD, my
strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of
affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of
the earth, and shall say, surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there
is no profit. (Jeremiah 16:20) Shall a man make
gods unto himself, and they are no gods? (Jeremiah 16:21) Therefore, behold,
I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know mine hand and my
might; and they shall know that my name is The LORD. (YHWH)
Loved One, my prayer continues
for you and me today; that we as TRUTH SEARCHERS FEAR NOT and
have faith increased to match our obedience and a willingness to humble
ourselves to submit our tongues to the Holy Spirit and allow Him to guide us
into all truth and teach us of things to come! That our prayers are given
thanks for instead of continually asking- that we show actions that indicate we
believe the promises of Yahshua regardless of the current storms and
circumstances! HalleluYAH- that all our loved ones come into the Kingdom
forever! That we not “turn back” but stand diligently and please YHWH with our
trust and faith that we are pleasing Him- so He can bring deliverance to ALL
our loved ones! May they also taste and see the LORD (YHWH) is good and His
mercy endures forever!
As a review; how do we FEAR NOT and hunger
and thirst for righteousness for more intimacy with Him who created all things?
(James 4:7) So then
subject (submit/humble) yourselves to Elohim. Resist
the 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. You and I must
change and receive the engrafted word of LIFE, (HUMBLE OURSELVES) turn
in repentance and OBEY HIM. We can no longer say we love Him and not do what He
says!
(Luke6:46) And why do you call me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
Do WE call Him Lord
and Master but not obey Him? Are we of those that think His LAW (Commentary:
Law was translated that but it is Torah-Instructions in Hebrew) is
done away with and ALL fulfilled? Hopefully, we will rethink that
position! Is Messiah reigning in Jerusalem? The Spring Feasts alone are fulfilled.
Passover, Feast of Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, and Shavuot were fulfilled
down to the day, hour and minute! He was the Passover Lamb, 3 days later the
High Priest was still in seclusion as was prescribed of the High Priest prior
to offering the thanksgiving for the first fruits of the Earth, when He
said “Don’t touch me Mary, I have not yet ascended to
My Father.” He is and was the High Priest! Seven
sevens(weeks) later He sent the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) on
Shavuot, the anniversary of giving the Torah (Law) at Mt. Sinai. He came the
first time to be Messiah Ben Joseph, the suffering
servant to be the Lamb of YHWH(God) sacrifice.
He is coming a second time very soon as Messiah
Ben David, the Reigning King! He will rule His Kingdom from
Jerusalem! Is He now ruling? NO. It is not all fulfilled! Let’s look at
what Yahshua said about the Law being done away with and WHEN
this will occur! (Matthew 5:17) Think not that
I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to
fulfill. (Matthew 5:18) For verily I say unto
you, until heaven and earth pass,
one jot or one tittle shall
in no wise pass from the law, until all be
fulfilled. (Matthew 5:19) Whosoever therefore
shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall
be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and
teach them, the same shall be
called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Even to us casual observers, heaven
and earth have not passed! Let’s acknowledge that fact as a truth and
return to Him as we study this week’s portion and allow Him to restore ALL
things- especially us!
(Jeremiah 30:3) 'For behold, days
are coming,' declares YHWH, 'when I will restore the
fortunes of my people Israel and Judah.' (Comment: this means
you and I who are grafted into Israel by grace by faith in Yahshua and are
heirs now of Abraham according to the promise) YHWH says, 'I will also
bring them back to the land that I gave to their forefathers and they shall
possess it.'" (Jeremiah 30:16) 'Therefore all who
devour you will be devoured; and all your adversaries, every one of them, will
go into captivity; and those who plunder you will be for plunder, and all who
prey upon you I will give for prey. (Jeremiah 30:17) 'For I will
restore you to health and I will heal you of your wounds,' declares YHWH,
'because they have called you an outcast, saying: "It is Zion; no one
cares for her."' (Jeremiah 30:18) "Thus says
YHWH, 'Behold, I will restore the fortunes of the tents of
Jacob and have compassion on his dwelling places; and the city will be rebuilt
on its ruin, and the palace will stand on its rightful place. (Jeremiah 30:19) 'From them will proceed
thanksgiving and the voice of those who celebrate; and I will multiply them and
they will not be diminished; I will also honor them and they will not be
insignificant. (Jeremiah 30:20) 'Their children also
will be as formerly, and their congregation shall be established before me; and
I will punish all their oppressors. (Jeremiah 30:21) 'Their leader shall be
one of them, and their ruler shall come forth from their midst; and I will
bring him near and he shall approach me; for who would dare to risk his life to
approach me?' declares YHWH. (Jeremiah 30:22) 'You shall
be my people, and I will be your Elohim.'"
WE are the ones addressed below by James-
who are dispersed (scattered) for accepting the pagan worship we inherited-
scattered all over the world- we repent to be RESTORED!
(James 1:1) Yaʽaqoḇ, a
servant of Elohim and of the Master יהושע Messiah, to the twelve tribes who
are in the dispersion (Scattering around the
world): Greetings. (James 1:2) My brothers, count
it all joy when you fall into various trials, (James 1:3) knowing that the
proving of your belief (faith-trust) works endurance. (James 1:4) And let endurance
have a perfect work, so that you be perfect and complete, lacking in
naught. (James 1:5) If any of you
lacks wisdom, let him ask of Elohim, who gives to all generously and without
reproach, and it shall be given to him. (James 1:6) But he should ask
in belief (faith-trust), not doubting, for he who doubts is like a
wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. (James 1:7) For that man should not
think that he shall receive whatever from the Master – (James 1:8) he is a
double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. (James 1:9) And let the lowly
brother boast in his exaltation, (James 1:10) but the rich in
his humiliation, because as a flower of the field he shall pass away. (James 1:11) For the sun rose
with burning heat, and withered the grass, and its flower fell, and its pretty
appearance perished. So also the rich man shall fade away in his ways. (James 1:12) Blessed is the man
who does endure trial, for when he has been proved, he shall receive the crown
of life which the Master has promised to those who love Him. (James 1:13) Let no one say
when he is enticed, “I am enticed by Elohim,” for Elohim is not enticed by
evil matters, and He entices no one. (James 1:14) But each one is
enticed when he is drawn away by his own desires and trapped. (James 1:15) Then, when desire
has conceived, it gives birth to sin. And sin, when it has been accomplished,
brings forth death. (James 1:16) Do not go astray,
my beloved brothers. (James 1:17) Every good gift and every
perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom
there is no change, nor shadow of turning.1 Footnote: 1 See
Malachi 3:6. (James 1:18) Having purposed
it, He brought us forth by the Word of truth, for us to be a kind of
first-fruits of His creatures. (James 1:19) So then, my beloved
brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath, (James 1:20) for the wrath of
man does not work the righteousness of Elohim. (James 1:21) Therefore put away
all filthiness and overflow of evil, and receive with meekness the implanted
Word,1 which is able to save your lives. Footnote: 1 See
Matthew 13:4-23 (James 1:22) And become
doers of the Word, and not hearers only, 1 deceiving
you. Footnote: 1 See Matthew 7:24-27,
Luke 6:46-49, Luke 8:21, Romans 2:13, Hebrews 4:11, Revelation 22:14. (James 1:23) If anyone is a
hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural
face in a mirror, (James 1:24) for he looks at
himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what he was like. (James 1:25) But he that looked
into the perfect Torah, that of freedom,1 and continues in
it, not becoming a hearer that forgets, but a doer of work, this one
shall be blessed in his doing of the Torah. Footnote: 1 See
2:12 (James 1:26) If anyone among
you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own
heart, this one’s religion is worthless. (VAIN) (James 1:27) Clean and
undefiled religion before the Elohim and Father is this: to visit orphans
and widows in their affliction and to keep ourselves
unstained (unpolluted) from the world.
Our WORDS AND ACTIONS must agree with His
from for our witness to be usable and us to be worthy and allowed to continue
our witness- that we produce fruit that remains even in Great Tribulation- let’s
turn our hearts to this week’s Torah Cycle:
This week’s Torah Scriptures: Yithro- “Jethro”
Exodus
18:1-20:23; Isaiah 6:1-7:6 & Isaiah 9:5-6; Matthew 5:17-32
Even Jethro; Moses’ father-in-law, who is
a pagan (?) priest exalts YHWH when he sees His mighty acts of deliverance!
(Exodus 18:1) And Yithro, the
priest of Miḏyan, Mosheh’s father-in-law, heard of all that Elohim had done
for Mosheh and for Yisra’ĕl His people, that יהוה had
brought Yisra’ĕl out of Mitsrayim. (Exodus 18:2) And Yithro,
Mosheh’s father-in-law, took Tsipporah, the wife of Mosheh – after he had sent
her back, (Exodus 18:3) and her two sons,
of whom the name of one was Gĕreshom, for he said, “I have been a sojourner in
a foreign land,” (Exodus 18:4) and the name of
the other was Eliezer, for he said, “The Elohim of my father was my help, and
delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh.” (Exodus 18:5) Yithro, Mosheh’s
father-in-law, came with his sons and his wife to Mosheh in the wilderness,
where he was encamped at the mountain of Elohim. (Exodus 18:6) And he had said to
Mosheh, “I, your father-in-law Yithro, am coming to you with your wife and her
two sons with her.” (Exodus 18:7 And Mosheh went
out to meet his father-in-law, and bowed down, and kissed him. And they asked
each other about their welfare, and they went into the tent. (Exodus 18:8) And Mosheh told
his father-in-law all that יהוה had done to Pharaoh and to the
Mitsrites for Yisra’ĕl’s sake, all the hardship that had come upon them on the
way, and how יהוה had delivered them. (Exodus 18:9) And Yithro rejoiced for all the good which יהוה had done for
Yisra’ĕl, whom He had delivered out of the hand of the Mitsrites. (Exodus 18:10) And Yithro
said, “Blessed beיהוה, who has delivered you out
of the hand of the Mitsrites and out of the hand of Pharaoh, and who has
delivered the people from under the hand of the Mitsrites. (Exodus 18:11) “Now
I know that יהוה is greater than all the mighty ones, indeed in the matter
in which they acted proudly, above them.” (Exodus 18:12) Then Yithro, the
father-in-law of Mosheh, brought a burnt offering and other slaughtering unto
Elohim. And Aharon came with all the elders of Yisra’ĕl to eat bread with the
father-in-law of Mosheh before Elohim. (Exodus 18:13) And it came to be,
on the next day, that Mosheh sat to rightly rule the people. And the people
stood before Mosheh from morning until evening. (Exodus 18:14) And when the
father-in-law of Mosheh saw all that he did for the people, he said, “What is
this that you are doing for the people? Why do you sit by yourself, and all the
people stand before you from morning until evening?” (Exodus 18:15) And Mosheh said to
his father-in-law, “Because the people come to me to seek Elohim. (Exodus 18:16) “When they have a
matter, they come to me, and I rightly rule between one and another, and make
known the laws of Elohim and His Torot.” (Exodus 18:17) And the
father-in-law of Mosheh said to him, “What you are doing is not good. (Exodus 18:18) “Both you and
these people with you shall certainly wear yourselves out. For the matter is
too heavy for you. You are not able to do it by yourself. (Exodus 18:19) “Now listen to my
voice. Let me counsel you and Elohim be with you: Stand before Elohim for the
people and you shall bring the matters to Elohim. (Exodus 18:20) “And you shall
enlighten them concerning the laws and the Torot, and show
them the way in which they should walk and the work which they do. (Exodus 18:21) “But you yourself
seek out from all the people able men, who fear Elohim, men of truth, hating
unfair gain. And place these over them to be rulers of
thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. (Exodus 18:22) “And they shall
rightly rule the people at all times. And it shall be that they bring every
great matter to you, but they themselves rightly rule every small matter. So,
make it lighter for yourself, for they shall bear with you. (Exodus 18:23) “If you do this
word, and Elohim shall command you, then you shall be able to stand and this
entire people also go to their place in peace.” (Exodus 18:24) And Mosheh
listened to the voice of his father-in-law and did all that he said. (Exodus 18:25) And Mosheh chose
able men out of all Yisra’ĕl, and made them heads over the people: rulers of
thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens. (Exodus 18:26) And they rightly
ruled the people at all times – the hard matters they brought to Mosheh, but
they rightly ruled every small matter themselves. (Exodus 18:27) And Mosheh sent
off his father-in-law, and he went away to his own land.
Signs and Wonders accompany YHWH that
command highest honor, obedience and protocol!
(Exodus 19:1) In the third month
after the children of Yisra’ĕl had come out of the land of Mitsrayim, on this
day they came to the Wilderness of Sinai. (Exodus 19:2) They set out from
Rephiḏim, and had come to the Wilderness of Sinai, and camped in the
wilderness. So Yisra’ĕl camped there before the mountain. (Exodus 19:3) And Mosheh went up
to Elohim, and יהוה called to him from the mountain, saying, “This is what you
are to say to the house of Yaʽaqoḇ, and declare to the children of Yisra’ĕl: (Exodus 19:4) ‘You have seen what I did
to the Mitsrites and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself. (Exodus 19:5) ‘And now, if you diligently
obey my voice, and shall guard my covenant, then you shall be my treasured
possession above all the peoples – for all the earth is mine – (Exodus 19:6) ‘and you shall be to me a
reign of priests and a set-apart nation.’ Those are the words which you are to
speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl.” (Exodus 19:7) And Mosheh came
and called for the elders of the people, and set before them all these words
which יהוה commanded him. (Exodus 19:8) And all the people
answered together and said, “All that יהוהhas spoken we shall do.”
So Mosheh brought back the words of the people to יהוה. (Exodus 19:9) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “See, I
am coming to you in the thick cloud, so that the people hear when I speak with
you, and believe you forever.” And Mosheh reported the words of the people toיהוה. (Exodus 19:10) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Go to
the people and set them apart today and tomorrow. And they shall wash their
garments, (Exodus 19:11) and
shall be prepared by the third day. For on the third day יהוה shall come down upon
Mount Sinai before the eyes of all the people. (Exodus 19:12) “And you shall make a
border for the people all around, saying, ‘Take heed to yourselves that you do
not go up to the mountain or touch the border of it. Whoever touches the
mountain shall certainly be put to death. (Exodus 19:13) ‘Not a hand is to touch
it, but he shall certainly be stoned or shot with an arrow, whether man or
beast, he shall not live.’ When the trumpet sounds long, let them come near
the mountain.” (Exodus 19:14) And Mosheh came
down from the mountain to the people and set the people apart, and they washed
their garments. (Exodus 19:15) And he said to the
people, “Be prepared by the third day. Do not come near a wife.” (Exodus 19:16) And it came to be,
on the third day in the morning, that there were thunders and lightning’s, and
a thick cloud on the mountain. And the sound of the ram’s horn was very loud,
and all the people who were in the camp trembled. (Exodus 19:17) And Mosheh brought
the people out of the camp to meet with Elohim, and they stood at the foot of
the mountain. (Exodus 19:18) And Mount Sinai
was in smoke, all of it, because יהוה descended upon it in fire. And its
smoke went up like the smoke of a furnace, and all the mountain trembled
exceedingly. (Exodus 19:19) And when the blast
of the ram’s horn sounded long and became louder and louder, Mosheh spoke, and
Elohim answered him by voice. (Exodus 19:20) And יהוה came down upon Mount Sinai, on the top of the mountain.
And יהוה called Mosheh to the top of the
mountain, and Mosheh went up. (Exodus 19:21) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Go down, and warn
the people, lest they break through unto יהוה to see, and many of them fall. (Exodus
19:22) “And let the priests who come
near יהוה set them apart too, lest יהוה break
out against them.” (Exodus 19:23) And Mosheh said
to יהוה, “The people are not able to come up to
Mount Sinai, for you warned us, saying, ‘Make a border around the mountain and
set it apart.’” (Exodus 19:24) And יהוה said
to him, “Come, go down and then come up, you and Aharon with you. But do not
let the priests and the people break through to come up to יהוה,
lest He break out against them.” (Exodus 19:25) And Mosheh went
down to the people and spoke to them.
TEN
WORDS- (Torah-
Instructions-Commands)
(Exodus 20:1) And Elohim spoke
all these Words, saying, (Exodus 20:2) “I am יהוה your
Elohim, who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, out of the house of
slavery. (Exodus 20:3) “You have no other
mighty ones against my face. (Exodus 20:4) “You do not make
for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of that which is in the heavens
above, or which is in the earth beneath, or which is in the waters under the
earth, (Exodus 20:5) you do not bow
down to them nor serve them. For I, יהוה your Elohim am a jealous Ěl, visiting
the crookedness of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth
generations of those who hate me, (Exodus 20:6) but showing
kindness to thousands, to those who love me and guard my commands. (Exodus 20:7) “You do not bring1 the Name of יהוה your
Elohim to naught, for יהוה does not leave the one unpunished who
brings His Name to naught. Footnote: 1 Or lift up,
or take. (Exodus 20:8) “Remember the
Sabbath day, to set it apart. (Exodus 20:9) “Six days you
labor, and shall do all your work, (Exodus 20:10) but the seventh
day is a Sabbath1 of יהוה your
Elohim. You do not do any work – you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your
male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who
is within your gates. Footnote: 1There are other
Sabbaths, but this is the weekly Sabbath. (Exodus 20:11) “For in six
days יהוה made the heavens and the earth, the
sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore, יהוה blessed
the Sabbath day and set it apart. (Exodus 20:12) “Respect your
father and your mother, so that your days are prolonged upon the soil
which יהוה your Elohim is giving you. (Exodus 20:13) “You do not
murder. (Exodus 20:14) “You do not commit
adultery. (Exodus 20:15) “You do not
steal. (Exodus 20:16) “You do not bear
false witness against your neighbor. (Exodus 20:17) “You do not covet
your neighbor’s house; you do not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male
servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, or whatever
belongs to your neighbor.”
Yahweh’s
power displayed- FEAR HIM- don’t fear the devil and the created beings (ALIENS-DEMONS)
(Exodus 20:18) And all the people
saw the thunders, the lightning flashes, the sound of the ram’s horn, and the
mountain smoking. And the people saw it, and they trembled and stood at
a distance, (Exodus 20:19) and said to
Mosheh, “You speak with us and we hear, but let not Elohim speak with us, lest
we die.” (Exodus 20:20) And Mosheh said to
the people, “Do not fear, for Elohim has come to prove you, and in order that
His fear be before you, so that you do not sin.” (Exodus 20:21) So the people
stood at a distance, but Mosheh drew near the thick darkness where Elohim
was. (Exodus 20:22) And יהוה said
to Mosheh, “Say this to the children of Yisra’ĕl: ‘You yourselves have seen
that I have spoken to you from the heavens. (Exodus 20:23) ‘You do not make
besides me mighty ones of silver, and you do not make mighty ones of gold for
yourselves. (Exodus 20:24) ‘Make an altar of
earth for me, and you shall slaughter on it your burnt offerings and your peace
offerings, your sheep and your cattle. In every place where I cause My Name to
be remembered I shall come to you and bless you. (Exodus 20:25) ‘And if you make
me an altar of stone, do not build it of cut stone, for if you use your chisel
on it, you have profaned it. (Exodus 20:26) ‘Nor do you go up
by steps to my altar, lest your nakedness be exposed on it.’
Mighty
Elohim is He whom we serve!
(Isaiah 6:1) In the year that
Sovereign Uzziyahu died, I saw יהוה sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of
His robe filled the Hĕḵal(Temple). (Isaiah 6:2) Above it stood
seraphim. Each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he
covered his feet, and with two he flew. (Isaiah 6:) And one cried to
another and said, “Set-apart, set-apart, set-apart is יהוה of
hosts; all the earth is filled with His esteem!” (Isaiah 6:4) And the posts of the door were
shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke. (Isaiah 6:5) And I said, “Woe
to me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the
midst of a people of unclean lips – for my eyes have seen the sovereign, יהוהof hosts.” (Isaiah 6:6) And one of the
seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the
tongs from the altar. (Isaiah 6:7) And he touched my
mouth with it, and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your crookedness is
taken away, and your sin is covered.” (Isaiah 6:8) And I heard the
voice of יהוה, saying, “Whom do I send, and who would go
for us?” And I said, “Here am I! Send me.” (Isaiah 6:9) And He said, “Go,
and you shall say to this people, ‘Hearing, you hear, but do not understand;
and seeing, you see, but do not know.’ (Isaiah 6:10) “Make the heart of
this people fat, and their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with
their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with
their heart, and shall turn and be healed.” (Isaiah 6:11) Then I said, “יהוה, until when?” And He answered, “Until
the cities are laid waste and without inhabitant, and the houses are without a
man, and the land is laid waste, a ruin, (Isaiah
6:12) and יהוה has
removed men far away, and the forsaken places be many in the midst of the
land. (Isaiah 6:13) “But still, there
is a tenth part in it, and it shall again be for a burning, like a terebinth
tree and like an oak, whose stump remains when it is cut down. The set-apart
seed is its stump!” (Isaiah 7:1) And it came to be
in the days of Aḥaz son of Yotham, son of Uzziyahu, sovereign of Yehuḏah,
that Retsin sovereign of Aram and Peqaḥ son of Remalyahu, sovereign of
Yisra’ĕl, went up to Yerushalayim to fight against it, but could not prevail
against it. (Isaiah 7:2) And it was
reported to the house of Dawiḏ, saying, “Aram has set up camp in Ephrayim.”
And his heart and the heart of his people were moved as the trees of the forest
are moved with the wind. (Isaiah 7:3) And יהוה said
to Yeshayahu, “Go out now to meet Aḥaz, you and She’ar-Yashuḇ your son, at
the end of the channel of the upper pool, on the highway of the Launderer’s
Field, (Isaiah 7:4) and say to him,
‘Take heed, and be calm; do not fear or be faint-hearted for these two stubs of
smoking firebrands, for the fierce displeasure of Retsin and Aram, and the son
of Remalyahu. (Isaiah 7:5) ‘Because Aram,
Ephrayim, and the son of Remalyahu have plotted evil against you, saying, (Isaiah 7:6) “Let us go up
against Yehuḏah and tear it apart, and break it open for ourselves, and set a
sovereign over them, the son of Taḇe’ĕl.”
Our Deliverer is sitting at the right hand of the Father
waiting for His enemies to be made His footstool!
(Isaiah 9:5) For every boot of
one trampling in tumult, and coat rolled in blood, shall be used for burning
and fuel of fire. (Isaiah 9:6) For a Child shall
be born unto us, a Son shall be given unto us, and the rule is on His shoulder. And His Name is called Wonder, Counselor,
Strong Ěl, Father of Continuity, Prince of Peace.

Continued explanation of 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 nation’s 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: 1John 4:22.
