Shabbat Shalom Loved One!  
 
This study is attached for ease of print and study format. YHWH is restoring all things and that includes us who were once DRY BONES!  Mighty is He whose mercy endures forever! All who call on His name will be delivered!  Why 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 is continued at end of this week’s study…

My prayer for you Loved One is that we have ears to hear, gaining wisdom from Yahweh and with our wisdom- gain understanding. That we have the courage to OBEY what He tells us and that He uses us mightily as a changed worthy vessel made in His image, that he directs us, protects us, provides for us and uses us mightily to produce fruit that remains! Further, that we are not asleep, but aware of hasatan’s devices and schemes-that we NOT love our lives unto death- that we flee VAIN TRADITIONS of men- We can readily see the great evil and darkness being poured out on the earth as hasatan makes his run to overcome all living on the earth and set up his kingdom.
 
(Luke 21:29) And He spoke a parable to them, “Look at the fig tree, and all the trees(Many consider this the rebirth of Israel in 1948 but I am not so sure as others make an equally valid sounding claim that the current ISRAEL “making or rebirth” was a Rothschild invention) (Luke 21:30) “When they have already budded, observing it, you shall know for yourselves that summer is now near. (Luke 21:31) “So you also, when you see these matters take place, know that the reign of Elohim is near. (Luke 21:32) “Truly, I say to you, this generation (Which generation? The generation that sees this rebirth- as a generation biblically is often 70 years) shall by no means pass away till all shall have taken place.  (Luke 21:33) “The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but my words shall by no means pass away(Luke 21:34) “And take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down by gluttony, and drunkenness and worries of this life, and that day come on you suddenly. (Luke 21:35) “For it shall come as a snare on all those dwelling on the face of all the earth(Luke 21:36) “Watch then at all times, and pray that you be counted worthy to escape (Escape and endure that we might continue to produce fruit for His Kingdom) all this about to take place, and to stand before the Son of Aḏam.”
 
 
Yahshua warns us not to be as these; (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.
To help you make sound decisions regarding your role ahead (Prayer in drawing near and physical preparation) facing Great Trials and troubles. It has become obvious to most of us that apart from us drawing very near to our King- and receiving the early and latter rain of His Ruach poured out on us- OR Yahshua coming early- no flesh will survive. Seems the Globalist- witches and satanists are using CERN and other portals for opening the gates of hell for the morning of the Dark Knight (Night). Remember opening of the London Olympics, where the theme is Elton John’s song; “Good Morning to the Night”.
 
Perhaps it is Time for us to awaken from our slumber as great darkness will soon cover the people in an ever increasing manner and we will need to shine brighter and brighter; and SHINE WE WILL LOVED ONE AS YAHWEH ARISES OVER US AND HIS GLORY (Presence) WILL BE SEEN UPON US!
 
As thick darkness covers the people due to satanic wickedness- our Deliverer will have us shine brighter and brighter as we walk in His power!
 
(Isaiah 60:1) Arise; shine, for your light has come! And the esteem (Glory which is His presence) of יהוה has risen upon you. (Isaiah 60:2) “For look, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness the peoplesBut 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. (Isaiah 60:6) “A stream of camels covers your land, the dromedaries of Miḏyan and Ěphah; all those from Sheḇa come, bearing gold and incense, and proclaiming the praises of יהוה(Isaiah 60:7) “All the flocks of Qĕḏar are gathered to you, the rams of Neḇayoth serve you; they come up for acceptance on My altar, and I embellish My esteemed House.
 
WHEN GROSS DARKNESS COVERS THE PEOPLE WE CAN BE ASSURED THAT DEMONIC ACTIVITY HAS INFILTERED THE WORLD. THIS MEANS WAR!
 
Back in 1995 I had just finished a long fast when I entered into an interactive vision. I was walking toward an old black and white television. You remember, if you are that old; they had no remotes—you had to get up off your rear and walk to the television and turn the knob to find any of the 13 channels (Twelve plus another separate one). This television had “Rabbit Ears” or two antennas on top of the television forming a “V”. As I approached the television in the vision, I started turning the knob on this “BLACK AND WHITE” television. Each of the channels put out a COLOR of light that flashed by me coming from the screen. Black, orange, red, green, brown, and many more; until all thirteen channels were turned to. I was puzzled as to what this might mean.  As soon as I asked the LORD what it meant, He spoke clearly as a warning to those who dwell on the earth, “These colors represent the 13 strongmen of satan’s kingdom.” Homosexuality, Hate, Murder, Adultery, Lying, Sexual immorality, Bestiality etc. until He named 13. He said they would enter the USA through the television as the entry portals were the eyes and the ears as the demons would enter into the people; sent by the Prince of the Power of the Air- hasatan. Now today we see the results of that unleashing. Many people now have tattoos that resemble their “passengers-demons” as they take over the bodies of humans to show how pretty they are. They will eventually look like a snake or reptilian being as the demon(s) want to show how pretty they look with their captured body, if allowed to continue. Loved Ones- it is important that “BELIEVERS” awaken from their slumber. The war is on. It is a fight of faith of life and death for all of us! We now enter into the victory He has already paid by believing and decreeing in THANKSGIVINGS!
 
In view of that war, I want to share a sobering letter I shared from a dear friend who has been under unimaginable warfare and attack. He is a righteous man, with a history of service as military intelligence, and a miracle that he overcame Lou Gehrig’s Disease. He is a man I respect and feel honored to call my friend. Perhaps, upon reading, we can put our whimpering and complaining aside and join in his battles with the fight of faith! One puts a thousand to flight and 2 puts 10,000 to flight!
 
I want whoever will-- among us-- to answer this call of prayer with thanksgivings and DECREES of scripture promise- to join this battle with him, as we overcome all the powers of hell aligned against him together. I believe as you determine to join this battle- this will allow Yahweh to protect you and send you help also for current and future needs.
 
Luke 10:17 And the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Master, even the demons are subject to us in Your Name.” Luke 10:18 And He said to them, “I saw Satan falling out of the heaven as lightning. Luke 10:19 See, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and none at all shall hurt you. Luke 10:20 “But do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names have been written in the heavens.”
 
Okay, you know we have authority to speak and decree as a fight of faith- that by NO means anything harms us!
 
So here is the letter for your overcoming prayer- I can say that as I read and then started to pray, a holy boldness came over me as I wept and prayed violently for my dear friend and our brother in Yahshua.

Shalom my Brother!
 
I've been out of circulation since mid-Nov last year, first due to computer hackers, then in January, health issues. Have experienced acute bacterial infection & pneumonia (first week in Jan 2016), when an aneurism was found on my aorta artery.  Following a couple of days in hospital, was taken to ER again where they found seven aneurisms. Had cardiovascular surgery to correct aneurisms.  Evidently died on operating table up to seven times, revived by medical folks who broke a rib for me.  To undergo surgery, they had to intubate me (tube in throat).  Doctors had difficulty doing this, then gave up trying.  The anesthesiologist asked to try, and he was able to intubate me so they could do surgery.  Four stints and three bypasses were successful.  Following surgery, the cardiologist had another MRI done to see if everything was fixed in the five hours of surgery.  The MRI showed a huge blood clot on my upper thigh.  Surgeon thought he would have to amputate my leg to get rid of the clot, but managed to do another bypass with another 1.5 hours of surgery.  I was under anesthesia for a long time that day. 
 
Ten days later, when they had to remove the tube from my throat, they found I couldn't breathe thru my throat, so they did a tracheotomy on me and put a tube in my throat with oxygen to breathe.  Was kept in ICU for a week, then in a hospital room for several days, then transferred to a rehab facility thru the end of March.  Was sexually assaulted by a black male nurse while in the hospital, attack began when asleep and defenseless.   Lots of other challenges that all doctors, nurses and others thought I would never live through.  In late March, an ENT oncologist did a biopsy on the mass in my throat that prevented breathing.  Biopsy showed squamous cell carcinoma of the glottis larynx on left side, caused by a 2009 injury or possibly 22 months of exposure to Agent Orange in Vietnam. 
 
I opted for radiation treatment only, no chemotherapy, because I had seven stints/bypasses in my gut-to-heart and lower abdomen, plus I had a feeding tube in my stomach.  Had I taken chemo, I would have likely choked to death on my own vomit, so I opted for radiation only.  Seven weeks and 35 strong radiation treatments later, and I was ready to kick the bucket for a variety of reasons.  Had lost 40 pounds, 168 to 128.  I got up to as high as 134 pounds, but am back to 126 pounds today.  Trach tube was removed from my throat July 5, and the hole has been healing very slowly.  ENT surgeon thinks the hole may need to be closed surgically. Follow-up appointments with various oncologists and PCM have gone well. 
 
I have a PET scan late August to see if cancer was eradicated or metastasized.  I'm eating one to two meals by mouth again, another or two by feeding tube with cans of formula. Have a number of side effects from radiation to the neck, jaw bone, throat, esophagus, gums, spine, thyroid, parathyroid, etc.  Dry mouth and effects on taste buds are ongoing challenges.  Had to have all my teeth pulled before radiation therapy, because after radiation, any teeth or dental work is almost impossible.  This, in turn, prevents eating regular meals to maintain weight, strength and vitality.  Radiation kills both good and bad cells, so my gums are still swollen purple with dead cells and excess dead blood cells.  Nobody knows the adverse effects on bone marrow, but my having 5 or more headaches per day may be an indicator. 
 
While in rehab, our beloved son-in-law died of brain cancer, 44 years of age, leaving wife and 20-year-old son, 21-year-old daughter.  My grief was immeasurable, especially since I couldn't attend funeral in Illinois with our daughter and grandchildren.  My wife and another daughter went. 
 
This is my first email to write since mid-November 2015.  Would appreciate your prayers, plus anyone else you know who prays (My highlight- Thurston) Evil forces near me are still working overtime to put my lights out permanently.  Lots of my emails have been erased from my computer server nefariously. 
 
I awaken most days with a song in my heart about Yeshua and His love for us or about peace. 
 
On my way to the ER the second time, I didn't think I would live, so I prayed under my breath.  I said "Lord, I could certainly use your help."  About ten seconds later, this voice said, "I will carry you."  Those four words have kept me going these past several months.  Doctors have offered me euthanasia.  My wife and I both agree that doctors and nurses didn't think I would survive.  Medical staff have stolen from me, including $490.00 pair of glasses and another replacement pair.  Now have new glasses and enjoy reading God's Word.  My taking control of my own medical care and making informed decisions, led by the Holy Spirit, is a primary reason I'm still alive today. 
 
My love and prayers for and to you!  
 
 
Ron White
 
Please agree with RON and his loved ones for total healing and RESTORATION of everything the enemy has stolen, maligned, or destroyed! Absolute and total healing and strategies for victory in every test! Let’s put on the full armor of Yahweh! Note that we are as HE IS!
 
2 Corinthians 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not fight according to the flesh. 2 Corinthians 10:4 For the weapons we fight with are not fleshly but mighty in Elohim for overthrowing strongholds, 2 Corinthians 10:5 overthrowing reasoning’s and every high matter that exalts itself against the knowledge of Elohim, taking captive every thought to make it obedient to the Messiah, 2 Corinthians 10:6 and being ready to punish all disobedience, when your obedience is complete.1 Footnote: 1 John 3:36. 2 Corinthians 10:7 Take a look at what you are facing. If anyone seems to trust in himself that he is of Messiah, let him reckon again for himself, that as he is of Messiah, so also are we.
 
1John 4:15 Whoever confesses that יהושע is the Son of Elohim, Elohim stays in him, and he in Elohim. 1John 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that Elohim has for us. Elohim is love, and he who stays in love stays in Elohim, and Elohim in him. 1John 4:17 By this love has been perfected with us, in order that we might have boldness in the day of judgment, because as He is so are we in this world.
 
Do you see loved one? Do you see His word decrees a truth of overpowering all the plans of hell? As HE IS so are we!
 
Ephesians 6:11 Put on the complete armor of Elohim, for you to have power to stand against the schemes of the devil. Ephesians 6:12 Because we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against authorities, against the world-rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual matters of wickedness in the heavenlies. Ephesians 6:13 Because of this, take up the complete armor of Elohim, so that you have power to withstand in the wicked day, and having done all, to stand. Ephesians 6:14 Stand, then, having girded your waist with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, Ephesians 6:15 and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of peace; Ephesians 6:16 above all, having taken up the shield of belief with which you shall have power to quench all the burning arrows of the wicked one. Ephesians 6:17  Take also the helmet of deliverance, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of Elohim,1 Footnote: 1 Isaiah 59:21. Ephesians 6:18  praying at all times, with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, watching in all perseverance and supplication for all the set-apart ones; Ephesians 6:19  also for me, that a word might be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to be bold in making known the secret of the Good News, Ephesians 6:20  for which I am an envoy in chains, that in it I might speak boldly, as I should speak.
 
As we choose to submit to YHWH’s instructions (Hear and Do) the enemy will flee! We become crucified in Yahshua and we no longer live, but Messiah and His anointing dwells in us!
 
(James 4:4) Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with Elohim? 1 Whoever therefore intends to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of Elohim. Footnote: 1 Matthew 13:22, Luke 4:5-6, Luke 14:33, Romans 12:2, 1 John 2:15-17. (James 4:5) Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose? Does the Spirit which dwells in us intensely crave unto envy? (James 4:6) But He gives greater favor. Because of this He says, “Elohim resists the proud, but gives favor to the humble.” (James 4:7) So then subject (submit- receive the engrafted word as a doer of it) yourselves to Elohim. Resist the devil 1 and he shall flee from you. Footnote: 1 Or adversary.
 
(1 Peter 5:6) Humble yourselves, then, under the mighty hand of Elohim, so that He exalts you in due time, (1 Peter 5:7) casting all your worry upon Him, for He is concerned about you. (1 Peter 5:8) Be sober, watch, because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. (1 Peter 5:9) Resist him, firm in the belief (trust/faith), knowing that the same hardships are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. (1 Peter 5:10) The Elohim of all favor(mercy); who has called you to His everlasting esteem (Glory) by Messiah יהושע; after you have suffered a while, Himself perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.
 
Here is a great Scripture to personalize and repeat continually if you want to walk in His power!
 
(Galatians 2:20) “I have been impaled (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 (trust/faith) 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, Ephesians 3:17, Colossians 1:27, 1 John 4:4.
 
OVERCOMING POWER BELONGS TO US! We overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the words of our TESTIMONY- what we speak, confess and DECREE! We do not love our lives more than our King- so we shall overcome by the blood of the Lamb of YHWH and the words we speak that agree with of His(Our testimony)
 
KJV Revelation 2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
 
The Scriptures (Revelation 12:10) And I heard a loud voice saying in the heaven, “Now have come the deliverance and the power and the reign of our Elohim,1 and the authority of His Messiah, for the accuser of our brothers, who accused them before our Elohim day and night, has been thrown down. Footnote: 1 See 11:15. (Revelation 12:11) And they overcame him because of the Blood of the Lamb, and because of the Word of their witness, and they did not love their lives to the death. (Revelation 12:12) “Because of this rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has little time.” (Revelation 12:13) And when the dragon saw that he had been thrown to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child. (Revelation 12:14) And the woman was given two wings of a great eagle, to fly into the wilderness to her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and half a time, from the presence of the serpent.
 
Most of us have inherited lies and not understood how deceitful hasatan is; even using RELIGIOUS SYSTEMS to blind us from pure relationships with Him. 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! He will deliver us even in fiery trialsall He requires is that we believe Him and our actions show it. FAITH/Trust = believing Him and can produce nothing for us without actions that agree with our beliefs! This is a reminder of why we draw near to Him by reading and rightly dividing the Scriptures; Faith without action is dead just like a man without the spirit man is dead and the flesh goes back to dirt; faith without actions can produce nothing- Here is what RELIGIOUS SYSTEMS can do- deny the POWER OF YHWH yes- even deny His gifts are available for us today; we AND AS YOU CAN TELL FROM THE WARFARE THAT HAS INCREASED GREATLY- WE NEED HIS HELP AND GIFTS- ALL OF THEM. We must build our RELATIONSHIP with YHWH!
 
IF we don’t want His power- KNOW THIS- then our testimony will soon be cut short-
 
(2 Timothy 3:1) But know this, that in the last days hard (perilous) times shall come. (2 Timothy 3:2) For men shall be lovers of self, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, thankless, wrong-doers, (2 Timothy 3:3) unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, haters of good, (2 Timothy 3:4) betrayers, reckless, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of Elohim(2 Timothy 3:5) having a form of Godliness -reverence but denying its powerAnd turn away from these! Footnote: 1 See v. 13, Isaiah. 24:5-6, Matthew 24:12, Romans 1:30-31, 2 Thessalonians 2:3-11. (2 Timothy 3:6) For among them are those who creep into households and captivate silly women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, (2 Timothy 3:7) always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
 
(James 2:17) So also belief (faith-trust), if it does not have works, is in itself dead. (James 2:18) But someone might say, “You have belief (faith-trust), and I have works.” Show me your belief (faith-trust) without your works, and I shall show you my belief (faith-trust) by my works. (James 2:19) You believe that Elohim is one. You do well. The demons also believe – and shudder! (James 2:20) But do you wish to know, O foolish man, that the belief (faith-trust) without the works is dead? (James 2:21) Was not Aḇraham our father declared right by works when he offered Yitsḥaq his son on the altar? (James 2:22) Do you see that the belief (faith-trust) was working with his works, and by the works the belief (faith-trust) was perfected? (James 2:23) And the Scripture was filled which says, “Aḇraham believed Elohim, and it was reckoned to him for righteousness.” And he was called, “Elohim’s friend.” (James 2:24) You see, then, that a man is declared right by works, and not by belief (faith-trust) alone.
 
Why is “doing the word” so important?
 
Yahshua told me many years ago that if we really heard Him (Hear and Do- Listen and Obey- the She’mah) we would DO what He said! We cannot have what He promised without adding actions to what we say we believe and that saddens Him. He really wants to reward those that seek Him diligently! Understand with me that faith or belief comes by hearing and hearing the word- but once we receive that engrafted word and become a doer of it; we can receive (Exchange our trust for His promise) the things hoped for- the Scripture promise!
 
(James 1:21) Therefore put away all filthiness and overflow of evil, and receive with meekness the implanted (Engrafted) 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 yourselvesFootnote: 1 See Matthew 7:24-27, Luke 6:46-49, Luke 8:21, Romans 2:13, Hebrews 4:11, Revelation 22:14.
 
(Hebrews 11:1) And belief (faith-trust) is the substance of what is expected, the proof of what is not seen. (Hebrews 11:2) For by this the elders obtained witness. (Hebrews 11:3) By belief (faith-trust), we understand that the ages were prepared by the word of Elohim, so that what is seen was not made of what is visible. (Hebrews 11:4) By belief (faith-trust), Heḇel offered to Elohim a greater slaughter offering than Qayin, through which he obtained witness that he was righteous, Elohim witnessing of his gifts. And through it, having died, he still speaks. (Hebrews 11:5) By belief (faith-trust), Ḥanoḵ was translated so as not to see death, “and was not found because Elohim had translated him.” For before his translation he obtained witness, that he pleased Elohim. (Hebrews 11:6) But without belief (faith-trust) it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to Elohim has to believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who earnestly seek Him.
 
YHWH does not want us ignorant of His gifts- WE NEED THEM! He really does want to bless, direct, protect and provide for us to be witnesses and produce fruit that remains! We should realize that we- apart from His intervention and help- we will have our testimonies cut short by the enemy of our souls and those who are following the orders of hasatan. We must actually believe He wants to use us (Witness) for the benefit of others to allow any benefit to follow; so since faith and trust(belief) comes by hearing the word- read and hear these Scriptures often and then ACT as though we believe Him- I expect He would not make these available if during the times of our distress and testing we did not really need His help. If these gifts are available to believers Loved One; they certainly should be (and are) available to us as obedient DOERS OF THE TORAH! Seems that Yahshua (The word made flesh that dwelled among us) knew we would be ignorant of the possibility that it requires us believing His promises for miracles and His supernatural help!
 
(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 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 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.
 
 
(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: 1See Ps. 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)
 
Here is what Yahshua warned us concerning these days upon us truth searcher; KJV (Matthew 24:21) then shall be great tribulation; such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. (Matthew 24:22) And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. Scriptures (Matthew 24:21) For then there shall be great distress, 1 such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. Footnote: 1 great pressure, or great affliction(Matthew 24:22) And if those days were not shortened, no flesh would be saved, but for the sake of the chosen ones those days shall be shortened. Here is the shadow picture we can also expect(Act 7:11) “Then a scarcity of food and great distress came over all the land of Mitsrayim and Kena‘an, and our fathers found no food.
 
BELIEF AND FAITH AS A DOER OF TORAH- 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 TorahFootnote: 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.
 
 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! (Luke 6:46) And why do you call me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
 
Loved One; 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 Hebrews) 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 (Pentecost to some) 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 Josephthe suffering servant to be the Lamb of YHWH (God) sacrifice.
 
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!
 
Let’s take note of WHO He restores- ISRAEL AND JUDAH- ALL TWELVE TRIBES
 
(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.'"
 
Understanding our submission of our WORDS AND ACTIONS agreeing with His form our witness making us usable witnesses to overcome by His shed blood; therefore 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: Teruma- “Offerings”
 
Exodus 25:1-27:19; 1 Kings 5:12- 6:13; Matthew 5:33-37
 
 
Remember our giving is acceptable based on our obedience and willingness to give our best gift!
 
(Exodus 25:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Exodus 25:2) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, that they take up a contribution for me. From everyone whose heart moves him (willing and obedient) you shall take up my contribution(Exodus 25:3) “And this is the contribution which you take up from them: gold, and silver, and bronze,(Exodus 25:4) and blue and purple and scarlet material, and fine linen, and goats’ hair(Exodus 25:5) and rams’ skins dyed red, and fine leather, and acacia wood, (Exodus 25:6) oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense, (Exodus 25:7) shoham stones and stones to be set in the shoulder garment and in the breastplate. (Exodus 25:8) “And they shall make Me a Set-apart Place, and I shall dwell in their midst. (Exodus 25:9) According to all that I show you – the pattern of the Dwelling Place and the pattern of all its furnishings – make it exactly so(Exodus 25:10) “And they shall make an ark of acacia wood two and a half cubits long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit and a half high. (Exodus 25:11) “And you shall overlay it with clean gold, inside and outside you shall overlay it. And you shall make on it a molding of gold all around. (Exodus 25:12) “And you shall cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in its four corners, two rings on one side, and two rings on the other side. (Exodus 25:13) “And you shall make poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, (Exodus 25:14) and shall put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to lift up the ark by them. (Exodus 25:15) “The poles are in the rings of the ark; they are not taken from it. (Exodus 25:16) “And into the ark you shall put the Witness which I give you. (Exodus 25:17) “And you shall make a lid of atonement of clean gold, two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide. (Exodus 25:18) “And you shall make two keruḇim of gold, make them of beaten work, at the two ends of the lid of atonement. (Exodus 25:19) “And make one keruḇ at one end, and the other keruḇ at the other end. Make the keruḇim from the lid of atonement, at its two ends. (Exodus 25:20) “And the keruḇim shall be spreading out their wings above, covering the lid of atonement with their wings, with their faces toward each other, the faces of the keruḇim turned toward the lid of atonement. (Exodus 25:21) “And you shall put the lid of atonement on top of the ark, and put into the ark the Witness which I give you. (Exodus 25:22) “And I shall meet with you there, and from above the lid of atonement, from between the two keruḇim which are on the ark of the Witness, I shall speak to you all that which I command you concerning the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Exodus 25:23) “And you shall make a table of acacia wood two cubits long, a cubit wide, and a cubit and a half high. (Exodus 25:24) “And you shall overlay it with clean gold, and shall make a molding of gold all around, (Exodus 25:25 and shall make for it a rim of a handbreadth all around, and shall make a gold molding for the rim all around. (Exodus 25:26) “And you shall make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings on the four corners that are at its four legs. (Exodus 25:27) “The rings are close to the rim, as holders for the poles to lift the table. (Exodus 25:28) “And you shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, and the table shall be lifted with them. (Exodus 25:29) “And you shall make its dishes, and its ladles, and its jars, and its bowls for pouring. Make them of clean gold. (Exodus 25:30) “And you shall put the show-bread on the table before me, continually. (Exodus 25:31) “And you shall make a lampstand of clean gold – the lampstand is made of beaten work. Its base and its shaft, its cups, its ornamental knobs and blossoms are from it, (Exodus 25:32)  and six branches shall come out of its sides: three branches of the lampstand out of one side, and three branches of the lampstand out of the other side; (Exodus 25:33)  three cups made like almond flowers on one branch, with ornamental knob and blossom, and three cups made like almond flowers on the other branch, with ornamental knob and blossom – so for the six branches coming out of the lampstand. (Exodus 25:34) “And on the lampstand itself are four cups made like almond flowers, with ornamental knob and blossom, (Exodus 25:35) and a knob under the first two branches of the same, and a knob under the second two branches of the same, and a knob under the third two branches of the same, according to the six branches coming out of the lampstand. (Exodus 25:36) “Their knobs and their branches are of the same – all of it one beaten work of clean gold. (Exodus 25:37) “And you shall make seven lamps for it, and they shall mount its lamps so that they give light in front of it. (Exodus 25:38) “And its snuffers and their trays are of clean gold. (Exodus 25:39) “It is made of a talent of clean gold, with all these utensils. (Exodus 25:40) “So see, and do according to the pattern which was shown to you on the mountain.
 
We too must obediently obey the pattern shown us in building our temples for YHWH- the pattern should match our walk!
 
(Exodus 26:1) “And make the Dwelling Place with ten curtains of fine woven linen and blue and purple and scarlet material. Make them, with keruḇim, the work of a skilled workman. (Exodus 26:2) “The length of each curtain is twenty-eight cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits, all the curtains having one measure. (Exodus 26:3) “Five curtains are joined to each other, and five curtains are joined to each other. (Exodus 26:4) “And you shall make loops of blue on the edge of the end curtain on one set, and do the same on the edge of the end curtain of the second set. (Exodus 26:5) “Make fifty loops in the one curtain and make fifty loops on the edge of the end curtain of the second set, the loops being opposite to each other. (Exodus 26:6) “And you shall make fifty hooks of gold, and shall join the curtains together with the hooks, and the Dwelling Place shall be one. (Exodus 26:7) “And you shall make curtains of goats’ hair, for a tent over the Dwelling Place, make eleven curtains. (Exodus 26:8) “The length of each curtain is thirty cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits, one measure to the eleven curtains. (Exodus 26:9) “And you shall join the five curtains by themselves, and the six curtains by themselves, and you shall double over the six curtains at the front of the Tent. (Exodus 26:10)  “And you shall make fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that is outer most in one set, and fifty loops on the edge of the curtain of the second set. (Exodus 26:11) “And you shall make fifty bronze hooks, and put the hooks into the loops, and join the tent together, and it shall be one. (Exodus 26:12) “And the overlapping part of the rest of the curtains of the Tent, the half curtain that remains, shall hang over the back of the Dwelling Place. (Exodus 26:13) “And a cubit on one side and a cubit on the other side, of what remains of the length of the curtains of the Tent, is to hang over the sides of the Dwelling Place, on this side and on that side, to cover it. (Exodus 26:14) “And you shall make a covering of ram skins dyed red for the Tent, and a covering of fine leather above that. (Exodus 26:15) “And for the Dwelling Place you shall make the boards of acacia wood, standing up. (Exodus 26:16) “Ten cubits is the length of a board, and a cubit and a half the width of each board, (Exodus 26:17) two tenons in each board for binding one to another. Do the same for all the boards of the Dwelling Place. (Exodus 26:18) “And you shall make the boards for the Dwelling Place, twenty boards for the south side, (Exodus 26:19) and make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards, two sockets under each of the boards for its two tenons. (Exodus 26:20) “And for the second side of the Dwelling Place, on the north side, twenty boards, (Exodus 26:21) and their forty sockets of silver, two sockets under each of the boards. (Exodus 26:22) “And for the extreme parts of the Dwelling Place, westward, make six boards, (Exodus 26:23) and make two boards for the two back corners of the Dwelling Place. (Exodus 26:24) “And they are double beneath and similarly they are complete to the top, to the one ring. So it is for both of them, they are for the two corners. (Exodus 26:25) “And they shall be eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets – two sockets under the one board, and two sockets under the other board. (Exodus 26:26) “And you shall make bars of acacia wood, five for the boards on one side of the Dwelling Place, (Exodus 26:27) and five bars for the boards on the other side of the Dwelling Place, and five bars for the boards of the side of the Dwelling Place, for the extreme parts westward, (Exodus 26:28) with the middle bar in the midst of the boards, going through from end to end. (Exodus 26:29) “And overlay the boards with gold, and make their rings of gold as holders for the bars, and overlay the bars with gold. (Exodus 26:30) “And you shall rise up the Dwelling Place according to its pattern which you were shown on the mountain. (Exodus 26:31) “And you shall make a veil of blue and purple and scarlet material, and fine woven linen, the work of a skilled workman, made with keruḇim. (Exodus 26:32) “And you shall put it on the four columns of acacia wood overlaid with gold, their hooks of gold, upon four sockets of silver. (Exodus 26:33) “And you shall hang the veil from the hooks, and shall bring the ark of the Witness there, behind the veil. And the veil shall make a separation for you between the Set-apart and the Most Set-apart Place. (Exodus 26:34) “And you shall put the lid of atonement upon the ark of the Witness in the Most Set-apart Place. (Exodus 26:35) “And you shall set the table outside the veil, and the lampstand opposite the table on the side of the Dwelling Place toward the south, and put the table on the north side. (Exodus 26:36) “And you shall make a covering for the door of the Tent, of blue and purple and scarlet material, and fine woven linen, made by a weaver. (Exodus 26:37) “And you shall make for the covering five columns of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, their hooks of gold, and you shall cast five sockets of bronze for them.
 
Whose Temple we are- His dwelling place- the place of worship- our altar:
 
(1 Corinthians 3:11) No one is able to lay any other foundation except that which is laid, which is יהושע Messiah. (1 Corinthians 3:12) And if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, (1 Corinthians 3:13) each one’s work shall be revealed, for the day shall show it up, because it is revealed by fire. And the fire shall prove the work of each one, what sort it is. (1 Corinthians 3:14) If anyone’s work remains, which he has built on, he shall receive a reward. (1 Corinthians 3:15) If anyone’s work is burned; he shall suffer loss, but he himself shall be saved, but so as through fire. (1 Corinthians 3:16) Do you not know that you are a Dwelling Place of Elohim and that the Spirit of Elohim dwells in you?
 
(1 Corinthians 6:19) Or do you not know that your body is the Dwelling Place of the Set-apart Spirit who is in you, which you have from Elohim, and you are not your own? (1 Corinthians 6:20) For you were bought with a price, therefore esteem Elohim in your body and in your spirit,1 which are of Elohim. Footnote: 1 See 7:23, 1 Peter 1:18-19.
 
(Exodus 27:1) “And you shall make an altar of acacia wood, five cubits long and five cubits wide – the altar is square – and its height three cubits. (Exodus 27:2) “And you shall make its horns on its four corners; its horns are of the same. And you shall overlay it with bronze. (Exodus 27:3) “And you shall make its pots to receive its ashes, and its shovels and its basins and its forks and its fire holders. Make all its utensils of bronze. (Exodus 27:4) “And you shall make a grating for it, a bronze network, and shall make on the network four bronze rings at its four corners, (Exodus 27:5) and shall put it under the rim of the altar beneath, so that the network is halfway up the altar. (Exodus 27:6) “And you shall make poles for the altar, poles of acacia wood, and shall overlay them with bronze. (Exodus 27:7) “And the poles shall be put in the rings, and the poles shall be on the two sides of the altar for lifting it. (Exodus 27:8) “Make it hollow with boards. As it was shown to you on the mountain, so they are to make it. (Exodus 27:9)  “And you shall make the courtyard of the Dwelling Place: for the south side screens for the courtyard made of fine woven linen, one hundred cubits long for one side, (Exodus 27:10)  and its twenty columns and their twenty sockets of bronze, the hooks of the columns and their bands of silver, (Exodus 27:11)  and so for the north side in length, screens one hundred cubits long, with its twenty columns and their twenty sockets of bronze, and the hooks of the columns and their bands of silver. (Exodus 27:12) “And the width of the courtyard on the west side screens of fifty cubits, with their ten columns and their ten sockets. (Exodus 27:13) “The width of the courtyard on the east side fifty cubits. (Exodus 27:14) “And the screens on one side of the gate fifteen cubits, with their three columns and their three sockets. (Exodus 27:15) “And on the other side screens of fifteen cubits, with their three columns and their three sockets. (Exodus 27:16) “And for the gate of the courtyard a covering twenty cubits long, of blue and purple and scarlet material, and fine woven linen, made by a weaver – four columns and four sockets. (Exodus 27:17) “All the columns around the courtyard have bands of silver, their hooks silver and their sockets bronze. (Exodus 27:18) “The length of the courtyard is one hundred cubits, and the width fifty by fifty, and the height five cubits, woven of fine linen thread, and its sockets of bronze. (Exodus 27:19) “All the utensils of the Dwelling Place for all its service, all its pegs, and all the pegs of the courtyard, are bronze.
 
Wisdom to seek YHWH (Beginning of all wisdom is to FEAR YHWH with respect- not hasatan- merely a created being)
 
(1 Kings 5:12) And יהוה gave Shelomoh wisdom, as He promised him. And there was peace between Ḥiram and Shelomoh, and the two of them made a covenant. (1 Kings 5:13) And Sovereign Shelomoh rose up compulsory labor out of all Yisra’ĕl. And the compulsory labor was thirty thousand men. (1 Kings 5:14) And he sent them to Leḇanon, ten thousand a month by courses – they were one month in Leḇanon, two months at home. And Aḏoniram was over the compulsory labor. (1 Kings 5:15) And Shelomoh had seventy thousand bearing burdens, and eighty thousand hewing stone in the mountains, (1 Kings 5:16) besides three thousand three hundred from the chiefs of Shelomoh’s deputies who were over the work, those ruling over the people who labored in the work. (1 Kings 5:17) And the sovereign commanded, and they brought large stones, precious stones, to lay the foundation of the House with hewn stones. (1 Kings 5:18) And Shelomoh’s builders, and Ḥiram’s builders, and the men of Geḇal did hew, and prepared timber and stones to build the House. (1 Kings 6:1) And it came to be, in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Yisra’ĕl had come out of the land of Mitsrayim, in the fourth year of the reign of Shelomoh over Yisra’ĕl, in the month of Ziw, which is the second month that he began to build the House of יהוה(1 Kings 6:2) And the house which Sovereign Shelomoh built for יהוה was sixty cubits long, and twenty wide, and thirty cubits high. (1 Kings 6:3) And the porch at the front of the hĕḵal of the House was twenty cubits long, according to the breadth of the House, and its width ten cubits, from the front of the House. (1 Kings 6:4) And he made for the House windows with narrowed frames. (1 Kings 6:5) And against the wall of the House he built rooms all around, against the walls of the House, all around the hĕḵal (Temple) and the Speaking Place. Thus he made side rooms all around. (1 Kings 6:6) The lowest side room was five cubits wide, and the middle one was six cubits wide, and the third one was seven cubits wide; for he made narrow ledges around the outside of the House, so as not to lay hold on the walls of the House. (1 Kings 6:7) And the House, when it was being built, was built with finished stone made ready beforehand, so that no hammer or chisel or any iron tool was heard in the House while it was being built. (1 Kings 6:8) The doorway for the middle side room was on the right side of the House. And they went up by stairs to the middle side rooms and from the middle to the third. (1 Kings 6:9) So he built the House and completed it, and he paneled the House with beams and boards of cedar. (1 Kings 6:10) And he built the side rooms of the structure against the entire House, each five cubits high, and they were fastened to the House with cedar beams. (1 Kings 6:11) And the word of יהוה came to Shelomoh, saying, (1 Kings 6:12) “This House which you are building – if you walk in my laws, and do my right-rulings, and shall guard all my commands and walk in them, then I shall confirm my word with you, which I spoke to your father Dawiḏ, (1 Kings 6:13) and shall dwell in the midst of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and not forsake my people Yisra’ĕl.”
 
Speak His word and obediently become DOERS of His word!
 
(Matthew 5:33) “Again, you heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths toיהוה.’ (Matthew 5:34) “But I say to you, do not swear at all, neither by the heaven, because it is Elohim’s throne; (Matthew 5:35) nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Yerushalayim, for it is the city of the great Sovereign; (Matthew 5:36) nor swear by your head, because you are not able to make one hair white or black(Matthew 5:37) “But let your word ‘Yea’ be ‘Yea,’ and your ‘No’ be ‘No.’ and what goes beyond these is from the wicked one.
 
My prayer for you and me remains Loved One- that we have ears to hear, gaining wisdom from Yahweh and with our wisdom- gain understanding. Also, loved one, that we put on the FULL ARMOR of Elohim as we are already engaged in a life or death struggle as we MUST fight the fight of faith in our thoughts, words and actions. We MUST stand firm on the written words of Yahweh! That we have the courage to OBEY what He tells us and that He uses us mightily as a changed worthy vessel made in His image, that he directs us, protects us, provides for us and uses us mightily to produce fruit that remains! Further, that we are not asleep, but aware of hasatan’s devices and schemes-that we NOT love our lives unto death- that we flee VAIN TRADITIONS of men- and overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the words of our testimony- and hear Him say- “Well done – good and faith filled servant- enter into my joy!”
 
I speak Shalom to your home Loved One,

Continued explanation of the Torah Cycle restart at beginning of months… It is about YHWH restoring all things which sometimes means we are walking alone. I start over annually when YHWH’s year starts over; this is not to say that I am correct and others are wrong, I just happen to believe we will never challenge our older brother Judah by following his traditions. I expect Judah will be moved by our obedience to His Torah (Words of Scripture) and seeing YHWH’s signs and wonders following our obedience- Does the statement above mean we are not to grab the tzitzit of Yehuda and take hold and learn from them? Of course not, we absolutely should learn of them and from them- just not ingest and keep that which is traditions that go against His words!
