November 19, 2016 The Remnant- Can these bones live?
Shabbat Shalom Loved One!
This study is attached for ease of print and study format- YHWH is restoring all things; that includes us who were once DRY BONES! All who KNOW (Not know about) HIM and call on Him will be delivered- HalleluYAH!
Why are we on a different schedule of the Torah Cycle than the mainstream and the Orthodox? For me it is about restoration of all things- explanation continued at end of this week’s study-

SINCE THANKSGIVING APPROACHES IN THE USA; ONE OF OUR MAIN TOOLS FOR VICTORY IS PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING
(Psalms 22:3) Yet you are set-apart, Enthroned on the praises of Yisra’ĕl. KJV uses inhabits… Psalms 100:4 Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him; bless His Name. Psalms 105:1 give thanks to יהוה! Call upon His Name; Make known His deeds among the peoples. Psalms 106:1 Praise Yah! Oh, give thanks to יהוה, For He is good! For His kindness is everlasting. Psalms 106:47 Save us, O יהוה our Elohim, and gather us from among the gentiles, to give thanks to your set-apart Name, to exult in your praise. Psalms 107:1 Give thanks to יהוה! He is good, for His kindness is everlasting.
Hey Loved One- just reading these will bless you with His presence! Hallelu-YAH!
2 Samuel 22:50 “Therefore I give thanks to You, O יהוה, among nations, and I sing praise to Your Name. 1 Chronicles 16:8 Give thanks to יהוה, call upon His Name, and make known His deeds among the peoples! 1 Chronicles 16:34 Give thanks to יהוה, for He is good, for His kindness is everlasting! 2 Chronicles 7:3 and all the children of Yisra’ĕl saw how the fire came down, and the esteem of יהוה on the House, and they bowed their faces to the ground on the pavement, and did obeisance and gave thanks to יהוה, saying, “For He is good, for His kindness is everlasting.” 2 Chronicles 7:6 And the priests were standing over their duties, and the Lĕwites with instruments of the song to יהוה, which Sovereign Dawiḏ had made to give thanks toיהוה, saying, “For His kindness is everlasting,” whenever Dawiḏ praised by their hand. And the priests were blowing trumpets before them, and all Yisra’ĕl were standing. 2 Chronicles 20:21 And after consulting with the people, he appointed those who should sing to יהוה, and who should praise the splendor of set-apartness, as they went out before the army and were saying, “Give thanks to יהוה, for His kindness is everlasting.” 2 Chronicles 31:2 and Ḥizqiyahu appointed the divisions of the priests and of the Lĕwites according to their divisions, each according to his service of the priests and Lĕwites for burnt offerings and peace offerings, to serve and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp ofיהוה. Ezra 3:11 and they responded by praising and giving thanks to יהוה, “For He is good, for His kindness towards Yisra’ĕl is forever.” And all the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised יהוה, because the foundation of the House of יהוה was laid.
Psalms 136:1 Give thanks to יהוה, for He is good! For His kindness is everlasting. 1 Corinthians 15:57 but thanks to Elohim who gives us the overcoming through our Master יהושע Messiah. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 in all circumstances give thanks, for this is the desire of Elohim in Messiah יהושע for you. Hebrews 13:15 Through Him then, let us continually offer up a slaughter offering of praise to Elohim, that is, the fruit of our lips,1 giving thanks to His Name. Footnote: 1 Or “bulls of our lips” - See Hoshea. 14:2. Revelation 4:9 And when the living creatures give esteem and respect and thanks to Him who sits on the throne, who lives forever and ever, Revelation11:17 saying, “We give you thanks, O יהוה Ěl Shaddai, the One who is and who was and who is coming, because You have taken Your great power and reigned.
I was told many years ago that to obey Torah would put you back under the LAW and LEGALISM! But Father has proven to me that is a LIE! Legalism is obeying the man-made CRAPPETH (KJV) of TRADITIONS, (I must share I got that KJV from a Cowboy Church Pastor that I absolutely love!) I do not fail to mention, that includes the FEASTS AND PAGAN HOLIDAYS and other lies that both Judaism and Christianity have added. It has become apparent to me what is plainly stated below by our Creator! Seems ONLY A REMNANT is coming forth usable by the Master for these end times we seem to be approaching!
Yahshua specifically warned us WHEN it would ALL be fulfilled: So I asked myself and now you- IS HEAVEN AND EARTH PASSED? Answer: Not even in our wildest imagination! (I suspect there are many Pastor, Teacher, and Evangelists LEAST- Selah)
Matthew 5:17 “Do not think that I came to destroy the Torah or the Prophets.e I did not come to destroy but to complete. Footnote: e The Law and the Prophets is a term used for the pre-Messianic Scriptures. Matthew 5:18 “For truly, I say to you, till the heaven and the earth pass away, one yod or one tittle shall by no means pass from the Torah till all be done (Fulfilled-complete).f Footnote: f Luke_16:17. Matthew 5:19 “Whoever, then, breaks one of the least of these commands, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the reign of the heavens; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the reign of the heavens.
The REMNANT will be the obedient and humble from Judah and Ephraim who are scattered across the earth presently- from the Valley of DRY BONES- as we will become His flesh again to do His will on the earth!
Remember with me; the larger stick is the 10 Northern tribes represented as ISRAEL and EPHRAIM- the younger son of Joseph blessed by Jacob-Israel to be the fruitful nation- they will be joined back together as ONE witness in His hand- as this was why Yahshua came- to save the lost sheep of Israel and likened to Joseph joining the family back together as ONE!
The Valley of Dry Bones (Us who are becoming ALIVE IN HIM again)
Ezekiel 37:1 The hand of יהוה was upon me and took me out by the Spirit of יהוה, and set me down in the midst of the valley. And it was filled with bones. Ezekiel 37:2 And He made me pass among them, all around, and see, there were very many on the surface of the valley, and see, they were very dry. Ezekiel 37:3 And He said to me, “Son of man, would these bones live?” And I said, “O Master יהוה, You know.” Ezekiel 37:4 Again He said to me, “Prophesy to these bones, and you shall say to them, ‘O dry bones, hear the word of יהוה! Ezekiel37:5 Thus said the Master יהוה to these bones, “See, I am bringing into you a spirit, and you shall live. Ezekiel37:6 “And I shall put sinews on you and bring flesh upon you, and cover you with skin and put a spirit in you, and you shall live. And you shall know that I am יהוה.” ’ ” Ezekiel 37:7 And I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I prophesied, there was a noise, and there was a rattling. And the bones came together, bone to bone. Ezekiel 37:8 And I looked and saw sinews and flesh came upon them, and skin covered them, but there was no spirit in them. Ezekiel 37:9 He then said to me, “Prophesy to the spirit, prophesy, son of man, and you shall say to the spirit, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “Come from the four winds, O spirit, and breathe on these killed ones, so that they live.” ’ ” Ezekiel 37:10 And I prophesied as He commanded me, and the spirit came into them, and they lived, and stood upon their feet, a very great army. Ezekiel 37:11 And He said to me, “Son of man, these bones are all the house of Yisra’ěl. See, they say, ‘Our bones are dry, our expectancy (Hope) has perished, and we ourselves have been cut off!’ Ezekiel 37:12 “Therefore prophesy, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “See, O My people, I am opening your burial-sites and shall bring you up from your burial-sites, and shall bring you into the land of Yisra’ěl. Ezekiel 37:13 “And you shall know that I am יהוה, when I open your burial-sites, My people, and bring you up from your burial-sites. Ezekiel 37:14 “And I shall put My Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I shall settle you in your own land. And you shall know that I יהוה have spoken, and I have done it,” declares יהוה.’ ” I Will Be Their God, They Shall Be My People Ezekiel 37:15 and the word of יהוה came to me, saying, Ezekiel 37:16 “And you, son of man, take a stick for yourself and write on it, (Comment: The Two Sticks or branches will be the WITNESSES)
(One of Two Branches or STICKS) ‘For Yehuḏah and for the children of Yisra’ěl, his companions.’
Then take another stick (TWO of Two Branches or Sticks) and write on it, ‘For Yosěph, the stick of Ephrayim, and for all the house of Yisra’ěl, his companions.’
Ezekiel 37:17 “Then bring them together for yourself into one stick, and they shall become one in your hand. Ezekiel 37:18 “And when the children of your people speak to you, saying, ‘Won’t you show us what you mean by these?’ Ezekiel 37:19 say to them, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “See, I am taking the stick of Yosěph, which is in the hand of Ephrayim, and the tribes of Yisra’ěl, his companions. And I shall give them unto him, with the stick of Yehuḏah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in My hand.” ’ Ezekiel 37:20 “And the sticks on which you write shall be in your hand before their eyes. Ezekiel 37:21 “And speak to them, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “See, I am taking the children of Yisra’ěl from among the nations, wherever they have gone, and shall gather them from all around, and I shall bring them into their land. Ezekiel 37:22 “And I shall make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Yisra’ěl. And one sovereign shall be sovereign over them all, and let them no longer be two nations, and let them no longer be divided into two reigns. Ezekiel 37:23 “And they shall no longer defile themselves with their idols, nor with their disgusting matters, nor with any of their transgressions. And I shall save them from all their dwelling places in which they have sinned, and I shall cleanse them. And they shall be My people, and I be their Elohim, Ezekiel 37:24 while Dawiḏ My servant is sovereign over them. And they shall all have one shepherd and walk in My right-rulings and guard My laws, and shall do them. Ezekiel 37:25 “And they shall dwell in the land that I have given to Ya‛aqoḇ My servant, where your fathers dwelt. And they shall dwell in it, they and their children and their children’s children, forever, and My servant Dawiḏ be their prince forever. Ezekiel 37:26 “And I shall make a covenant of peace with them – an everlasting covenant it is with them. And I shall place them and increase them, and shall place My set-apart place in their midst, forever. Ezekiel 37:27 “And My Dwelling Place shall be over them. And I shall be their Elohim, and they shall be My people. Ezekiel 37:28 “And the nations shall know that I, יהוה, am setting Yisra’ěl apart, when My set-apart place is in their midst – forever.” ’ ”
HOPEFULLY WE AGREE; ONLY A REMNANT SHALL BE SAVED as HIS WITNESSES- from Judah and Ephraim (Delivered, healed, made whole and saved- USABLE FOR THE MASTER)
Joel 2:28 “And after this it shall be that I pour out My Spirit on all flesh. And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men dream dreams, your young men see visions. Joel 2:29 “And also on the male servants and on the female servants I shall pour out My Spirit in those days. Joel 2:30 “And I shall give signs in the heavens and upon the earth: blood and fire and columns of smoke, Joel 2:31 the sun is turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of יהוה. Joel 2:32 “And it shall be that everyone who calls on the Name of יהוה shall be delivered.b For on Mount Tsiyon and in Yerushalayim there shall be an escape c as יהוה has said, and among the REMNANT (survivors) whom יהוה calls. Footnotes: b Acts_2:21, Romans_10:13. c Isaiah_4:2-3, Obadiah_1:17, Revelation_14:1.
Zechariah_8:6 "Thus says YAHWEH of hosts: 'If it is marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days, Will it also be marvelous in My eyes?' Says the LORD hosts.
Zechariah_8:11 But now I will not treat the remnant of this people as in the former days,' says YAHWEH of hosts.
Zechariah_8:12 'For the seed shall be prosperous, The vine shall give its fruit, The ground shall give her increase, And the heavens shall give their dew—I will cause the remnant of this people To possess all these.
Zechariah_14:2 For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem; The city shall be taken, The houses rifled, And the women ravished. Half of the city shall go into captivity, But the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
Malachi_2:15 But did He not make them one, Having a remnant of the Spirit? And why one? He seeks godly offspring. "Therefore take heed to your spirit, And let none deal treacherously with the wife of his youth.
Romans_9:27 Isaiah also cries out concerning Israel: "THOUGH THE NUMBER OF THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL BE AS THE SAND OF THE SEA, THE REMNANT WILL BE SAVED.
Romans_11:5 Even so then, at this present time there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
HIS REMNANT IS DRAWING NEAR- to become His Bride; we are commanded to NOT learn the ways of the heathens!
We escape and endure as those awake, sober and alert and about our Father’s business!
(Luke 21:31) “So you also, when you see these matters take place, know that the reign of Elohim is near. (Luke21:32) “Truly, I say to you, this generation shall by no means pass away till all shall have taken place. (Luke21:33) “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 all this about to take place, and to stand before the Son of Aḏam.”
This escape does not represent Pre-tribulation rapture- we are to escape and endure and produce fruit which alone glorifies our Father and what a blessing to still be standing when He returns- Hallelu-Yah! No need for fear- Our Elohim holds the wicked men of the earth (and the demonic spirits infesting/directing them) in DERISION as He laughs at them! Draw near to our Father and FEAR NOT! Okay we will now take a closer look again at Halloween and make some decisions about how we guide our children.
Loved One; last week we reminded ourselves we must SPEAK THE WORD OF TRUTH AND NOT THE FACTS OR WHAT IS SEEN! Remember; Yahshua reminds us; His words are Spirit and Life. We will not be allowed to have His power if we speak the facts- that disagree with Him- remember the facts (giants in the land) are temporal (temporary) and subject to change whereas His words and agreeing with them are eternal- He reminds us that Heaven and Earth will pass away but His words will remain forever! Hallelu-Yah- walking in a demonstration of His power (which is becoming an ever apparent need) requires a humbling obedience on our parts loved one. Can we even imagine becoming Kings and Priests in the Millennial Kingdom if we won’t even obey Him in this day? Would you and I be so foolish to elevate our servants that will not obey us? Do we honestly think our King and Messiah will make those among us who choose to disobey Him Kings and Priests to teach and help direct others to His truths and instructions?(Torah) Are we among them that erroneously believe we are now finally under grace? The Scriptures declare Noah found grace in His eyes. Obviously, so did Adam and Eve as they were not killed but covered with bloody animal skins. Do we find ourselves believing grace has done away with the Law or instructions (Torah)? Since 1 John declares KJV (1 John 3:4) whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. Scriptures (1 John 3:4) everyone doing sin also does lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness. Would we be so deceived that we believe Yahshua did away with sin which is transgression against the Torah (Law/Instructions) and therefore paid the price so that GRACE allows us to sin now without penalty? YHWH forbid us!
What do the instructions of Yahweh say?
(Romans 10:8) But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” – that is, the word of belief (trust/faith) which we are proclaiming: (Romans 10:9) that if you confess (speak) with your mouth the Masterיהושע (The WORD made flesh who dwells among us) and believe in your heart that Elohim has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved (Delivered, saved, healed, made whole). (Romans 10:10) For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and one confesses with the mouth, and so is saved. (Romans 10:11) Because the Scripture says, “Whoever puts his trust in Him shall not be put to shame.”
He is no respecter of persons but as He told Jeremiah- He is watching over His word to perform it! (Jeremiah 1:12) And יהוה said to me, “You have seen well, for I am watching over my word to do it.”
The Ruach will guide us into more truth as we receive the engrafted word and become DOERS of what has been revealed. (Romans 2:13) Not the hearers of the Torah are righteous in the sight of Elohim, but the doers of the law 1 shall be declared right. Footnote: 1 Matthew 7:21-27, James 2:14-24.
When we receive (A decision and choice we each make) the engrafted word- we will both submit and obey by our doing or likely we also are deceived or at least prone/susceptible to hasatan’s attack. If we choose to not receive and DO-OBEY then we are in rebellion. (1Samuel 15:22) Then Shemu’ĕl said, “Does יהוה delight in burnt offerings and slaughtering, as in obeying the voice of יהוה? Look, to obey is better than an offering, to heed is better than the fat of rams. (1Samuel 15:23) “For rebellion is as the sin of divination, (witchcraft) and stubbornness is as wickedness and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of יהוה, He also does reject you as Sovereign (King).” I expect He will also reject us as Kings and Priests for disobedience- YIKES!
(James 1:21) Therefore put away all filthiness and overflow of evil, and receive with meekness the implanted Word, 1 which is able to save your lives. Footnote: 1 See Matthew 13:4-23. (James 1:22) And become doers of the Word, and not hearers only, 1 deceiving yourselves. Footnote: 1 See Matthew 7:24-27, Luke. 6:46-49, Luke 8:21, Romans 2:13, Hebrews 4:11, Revelation 22:14. (James 1:23) If anyone is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror, (James 1:24) for he looks at himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what he was like. (James 1:25) But he that looked into the perfect Torah, that of freedom, 1 and continues in it, not becoming a hearer that forgets, but a doer of work, this one shall be blessed in his doing of the Torah. Footnote: 1See 2:12.
How many of us still want to fit in, be accepted by unbelieving and mocking worldly friends and family members? It is time we make ourselves ready and quit playing with fire- we now must become the bride making ourselves ready! We must pray for them but become set apart!
(James 4:4) Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with Elohim? 1 Whoever therefore intends to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of Elohim. Footnote: 1 Matthew 13:22, Luke 4:5-6, Luke 14:33, Romans 12:2, 1 John 2:15-17. (James 4:5) Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose? Does the Spirit which dwells in us intensely crave unto envy? (James 4:6) But He gives greater favor. Because of this He says, “Elohim resists the proud, but gives favor to the humble.” (James 4:7) So then subject (submit- receive and do or SHE’MAH- Hear and Obey) yourselves to Elohim. Resist the devil1 and he shall flee from you. Footnote: 1 Or adversary. (James 4:8) Draw near to Elohim and He shall draw near to you. Cleanse hands, sinners. And cleanse the hearts, you double-minded! (James 4:9) Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to dejection. (James 4:10) Humble yourselves in the sight of the Master, and He shall lift you up. (James 4:11) Brothers, do not speak against one another. He that speaks against a brother and judges his brother speaks against Torah and judges Torah. And if you judge Torah, you are not a doer of Torah but a judge. (James4:12) There is one Lawgiver and Judge, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?
(Hebrews 11:1) now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (Romans 10:17) So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing (Cycle) by the word of YHWH. (Romans 10:18) I say, have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. (Romans 10:19) I say, did not Israel know? First Moses says I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you. (Romans 10:20) But Isaiah is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me. (Romans 10:21) But to Israel he says, All day long I have stretched
Once again, here’s why; (Matthew 12:46) While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brothers stood without, desiring to speak with him.(Matthew 12:47) Then one said unto him, Behold, your mother and your brothers stand without, desiring to speak with you. Matthew 12:48 But He answering, said to the one who spoke to Him, “Who is My mother and who are My brothers?” (Matthew 12:49) And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, behold my mother and my brothers! (Matthew 12:50) “For whoever does the desire of My Father who is in the heavens is My brother and sister and mother.”c Footnote: c See Luke_8:21 where the wording differs slightly.
forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people. Loved One, let’s briefly remind ourselves why you and I and they are Family and as such “Loved Ones”! I consider all “Truth Seekers” family and therefore loved ones.
We can understand; IF we are willing to humble ourselves and submit to the will of YHWH and do the Father’s will (His TORAH /Instructions) we are Yahshua’s (Jesus’) family!
Have WE inherited lies? I ask you- what do you believe?
We should also realize a truth: Jeremiah prophesied that in the DAY OF AFFLICTION (Comment: Hebrew idiom for Jacob’s Trouble or also known as the Great Tribulation in the last days) we would recognize (YHWH reveals truth) and become aware of the fact that we have added to and subtracted from His FEASTS and commands! These are lies that really don’t please Him because they have pagan roots and are manmade (added and subtracted from the WORD) traditions that make the word of YHWH of none effect! (Jeremiah 16:19) O LORD, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit. (Deuteronomy 4:2) “Do not add to the Word which I command you, and do not take away from it 1, so as to guard the commands of יהוה your Elohim which I am commanding you. Footnote: 1 See also 12:32, Proverbs 30:6, Revelation 22:18-19.
Can we even imagine thinking we were serving YHWH our whole lives’ and hear Him tell us we inherited lies and were workers of Lawlessness (Torahlessness)- that He never knew us and to depart from us; that we actually were disobedient following pagan traditions we inherited? I have.
This experience would and will cause many to go screaming in horror, weeping and gnashing of teeth, into the flames of hell! Oh Yah- Change us NOW! Reveal your TRUTH to us that we may be pleasing in your sight! Nothing is too hard for you YHWH! You are family (LOVED ONES) if you are humble enough to be a truth searcher. One who desires truth and obedience to your Creator- more than you want acceptance from men and their traditions.
This group would include us who are willing to pick up our burial stake and follow Him. Why do I use burial stake? Because you and I must be willing to decrease as He increases in us. He changes not and that only leaves you and I to do the changing. We must be willing to humble ourselves and accept the engrafted word when we discover truth. This losing our life for Him is not just physical. As we are changed into His image we are losing our old person (ality) and gaining HIM!
To the degree we are hungry for Him we will be changed- no more or less. (Matthew 5:6) Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Let’s get hungry for more of Him and less of us- I suspect we will be most happy not to hear these words from Yahshua!
With thankful hearts- which are counting our blessings one by one- let’s turn our hearts and minds to this week’s Torah portion Loved Ones!
Here are this Week’s Torah Scriptures: Bechukotai “In My Statutes”
Leviticus 26:3- 27:34; Jeremiah 16:19-17:14; 2 Corinthians 6:14-18
Promises guaranteed by the Creator for obeying Him and curses guaranteed for disobeying Him! This applies to many countries including our beloved USA- Note how the correction and punishment highlights are serious in length. I was told many years ago that to obey would put you back under the LAW and LEGALISM! But Father has proven to me that is a LIE! Legalism is obeying the man-made CRAPPETH (KJV for JUNK) of traditions, FEASTS AND PAGAN HOLIDAYS and other lies that both Judaism and Christianity have added. It has become apparent to me what is plainly stated below by our Creator!
OBEDIENCE=BLESSINGS AND DISOBEDIENCE=CURSES
(Leviticus 26:3) ‘If you walk in my laws and guard my commands, and shall do them, (Leviticus 26:4) thenI shall give you rain in its season, and the land shall yield its crops, and the trees of the field yield their fruit. (Leviticus 26:5) ‘And your threshing shall last till the time of the grape harvest and the grape harvest shall last till the time of sowing. And you shall eat your bread until you have enough, and shall dwell in your land safely. (Leviticus 26:6) ‘And I shall give peace in the land, and you shall lie down and no one make you afraid. And I shall clear the land of evil beasts, and not let the sword go through your land. (Leviticus 26:7) ‘And you shall pursue your enemies, and they shall fall by the sword before you. (Leviticus 26:8) ‘And five of you shall pursue a hundred, and a hundred of you pursue ten thousand. And your enemies shall fall by the sword before you. (Leviticus 26:9) ‘And I shall turn to you and make you bear fruit, and shall increase you, and shall establish my covenant with you. (Leviticus 26:10) ‘And you shall eat the old supply, and clear out the old because of the new. (Leviticus 26:11) ‘And I shall set My Dwelling Place in your midst, and my being shall not reject you. (Leviticus 26:12) ‘And I shall walk in your midst, and shall be your Elohim, and you shall be my people. (Leviticus 26:13) ‘I am יהוהyour Elohim, who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, from being their slaves. And I have broken the bars of your yoke and made you walk upright. (Leviticus 26:14) ‘But if you do not obey Me, and do not do all these commands, (Leviticus 26:15) and if you reject My laws, or if your being loathes My right-rulings, so that you do not do all My commands, but break My covenant, (Leviticus 26:16) I also do this to you: And I shall appoint sudden alarm over you, wasting disease and inflammation, destroying the eyes, and consuming the life. And you shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. (Leviticus 26:17) ‘And I shall set my face against you, and you shall be smitten before your enemies. And those who hate you shall rule over you, and you shall flee when no one pursues you. (Leviticus 26:18) ‘And after all this, if you do not obey me, then I shall punish you seven times more for your sins. (Leviticus 26:19) ‘And I shall break the pride of your power, and shall make your heavens like iron and your earth like bronze. (Leviticus 26:20) ‘And your strength shall be spent in vain and your land will not yield its crops, nor do the trees of the land yield their fruit.(Leviticus 26:21) ‘And if you walk contrary to me, and refuse to obey Me, I shall bring on you seven times more plagues, according to your sins, (Leviticus 26:22) and send wild beasts among you, which shall bereave you of your children. And I shall cut off your livestock, and make you few in number, and your highways shall be deserted. (Leviticus 26:23) ‘And if you are not instructed by me by these, but walk contrary to me, (Leviticus 26:24) then I also shall walk contrary to you, and I myself shall smite you seven times for your sins. (Leviticus 26:25) ‘And I shall bring against you a sword executing the vengeance of my covenant, and you shall gather together in your cities, and I shall send pestilence among you, and you shall be given into the hand of the enemy. (Leviticus 26:26) ‘When I have cut off your supply of bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall bring back to you your bread by weight and you shall eat and not be satisfied. (Leviticus 26:27) ‘And if in spite of this, you do not obey me, but walk contrary to me, (Leviticus 26:28) then I shall walk contrary to you in wrath. And I myself shall punish you seven times for your sins. (Leviticus 26:29) ‘And you shall eat the flesh of your sons, and eat the flesh of your daughters. (Leviticus 26:30) ‘And I shall destroy your high places, and cut down your sun-pillars, and put your carcasses on the carcasses of your idols. And my being shall loathe you.(Leviticus 26:31) ‘And I shall turn your cities into ruins and lay your set-apart places waste, and not smell your sweet fragrances. (Leviticus 26:32) ‘And I shall lay the land waste, and your enemies who dwell in it shall be astonished at it. (Leviticus 26:33) ‘And I shall scatter you among the gentiles and draw out a sword after you. And your land shall be desert and your cities ruins, (Leviticus 26:34) and the land enjoy its Sabbaths as long as it lays waste and you are in your enemies’ land. Then the land would rest and enjoy its Sabbaths. (Leviticus 26:35) ‘As long as it lays waste it rests, for the time it did not rest on your Sabbaths when you dwelt in it. (Leviticus 26:36) ‘And as for those of you who are left, I shall send faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies, and the sound of a shaken leaf shall cause them to flee. And they shall flee as though retreating from a sword, and they shall fall when no one pursues. (Leviticus 26:37) ‘And they shall stumble over one another, as from before a sword, when no one pursues. And you shall be unable to stand before your enemies. (Leviticus 26:38) ‘And you shall perish among the gentiles, (Heathen) and the land of your enemies shall eat you up, (Leviticus 26:39) and those of you who are left rot away in their crookedness in your enemies’ lands, and also in their fathers’ crookednesses rot away with them.
(Leviticus 26:40) ‘But if they confess their crookedness and the crookedness of their fathers, with their trespass in which they trespassed against me, and that they also have walked contrary to me, (Leviticus 26:41) and that I also have walked contrary to them and have brought them into the land of their enemies – if their uncircumcised heart is then humbled, and they accept the punishment of their crookedness,(Leviticus 26:42) then I shall remember my covenant with Yaʽaqoḇ, and also my covenant with Yitsḥaq, and also remember my covenant with Aḇraham, and remember the land. (Leviticus 26:43) ‘For the land was abandoned by them, and enjoying its Sabbaths while lying waste without them, and they were paying for their crookedness, because they rejected my right-rulings and because their being loathed my laws. (Leviticus 26:44) ‘And yet for all this, when they are in the land of their enemies, I shall not reject them, nor shall I loathe them so as to destroy them and break my covenant with them. I am יהוה their Elohim. (Leviticus 26:45) ‘Then I shall remember for their sake the covenant of the ancestors whom I brought out of the land of Mitsrayim before the eyes of the nations to be their Elohim. I am יהוה.’ (Leviticus 26:46) These are the laws and the right-rulings and the Torot 1 which יהוה made between Himself and the children of Yisra’ĕl on Mount Sinai by the hand of Mosheh. Footnote: 1Torot - plural of Torah, teaching.
The tithe of the INCREASE belongs to YHWH!
(Leviticus 27:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 27:2) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘When a man separates a vow, by your evaluation of lives unto יהוה, (Leviticus 27:3) when your evaluation is of a male from twenty years old up to sixty years old, then your evaluation shall be fifty sheqels of silver, according to the sheqel of the set-apart place. (Leviticus 27:4) ‘And if it is a female, then your evaluation shall be thirty sheqels; (Leviticus 27:5) and if from five years old up to twenty years old, then your evaluation for a male shall be twenty sheqels, and for a female ten sheqels;(Leviticus 27:6) and if from a month old up to five years old, then your evaluation for a male shall be five sheqels of silver, and for a female your evaluation shall be three sheqels of silver; (Leviticus 27:7) and if from sixty years old and above, if it is a male, then your evaluation shall be fifteen sheqels, and for a female ten sheqels. (Leviticus 27:8) ‘But if he is too poor to pay your evaluation, then he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall set a value for him. According to the ability of him who vowed, the priest shall value him. (Leviticus 27:9) ‘And if it is a beast of which they bring an offering to יהוה, all such given to יהוה is set-apart. (Leviticus 27:10) ‘He is not to replace it or exchange it, well for spoilt or spoilt for good. And if he at all exchanges beast for beast, then both it and the one exchanged for it is set-apart. (Leviticus 27:11) ‘And if it is any unclean beast of which they do not bring an offering to יהוה, then he shall present the beast before the priest; (Leviticus 27:12) and the priest shall value it, whether it is good or spoilt. According to your evaluation, O priest, so it shall be. (Leviticus 27:13) ‘But if he indeed redeems it, then he shall add one-fifth to your evaluation. (Leviticus 27:14) ‘And when a man sets his house apart, to be set-apart to יהוה, then the priest shall value it, whether it is good or spoilt. As the priest values it, so it stands. (Leviticus 27:15) ‘And if he who sets it apart does redeem his house, then he shall add one-fifth of the silver of your evaluation to it, and it shall be his. (Leviticus 27:16) ‘And if a man sets apart to יהוה a field he owns, then your evaluation shall be according to the seed for it – a homer of barley seed at fifty sheqels of silver. (Leviticus 27:17) ‘If he sets his field apart from the Year of Jubilee, according to your evaluation it stands. (Leviticus 27:18) ‘But if he sets his field apart after the Jubilee, then the priest shall reckon to him the silver due according to the years that remain till the Year of Jubilee, and it shall be deducted from your evaluation. (Leviticus 27:19) ‘And if he who sets the field apart ever wishes to redeem it, then he shall add one-fifth of the silver of your evaluation to it, and it shall be his. (Leviticus 27:20) ‘And if he does not redeem the field, or if he has sold the field to another man, it is no longer redeemed, (Leviticus 27:21) but the field, when it is released in the Jubilee, is set-apart to יהוה as a dedicated field, to be the possession of the priest. (Leviticus 27:22) ‘And if a man sets apart to יהוה a field which he has bought, which is not the field of his possession, (Leviticus 27:23) then the priest shall reckon to him the amount of your evaluation, up to the Year of Jubilee, and he shall give your evaluation on that day, set-apart to יהוה. (Leviticus 27:24) ‘In the Year of Jubilee the field returns to him from whom he bought it, to him whose is the possession of the land. (Leviticus 27:25) ‘And all your evaluations is to be according to the sheqel of the set-apart place: twenty gĕrahs to the sheqel.(Leviticus 27:26) ‘However, a first-born of the beasts, which is first-born to יהוה, no man sets it apart – whether bull or sheep, it belongs to יהוה. (Leviticus 27:27) ‘And if among the unclean beasts, then he shall ransom it according to your evaluation, and shall add one-fifth to it. And if it is not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to your evaluation.(Leviticus 27:28) ‘However, whatever a man lays under ban for יהוה of all that he has, man and beast, or the field of his possession, is not sold or redeemed. Whatever is laid under ban is most set-apart to יהוה. (Leviticus 27:29) ‘No one under the ban, under the ban among men, is ransomed, but shall certainly be put to death. (Leviticus 27:30) ‘And all the tithe of the land – of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree – belongs to יהוה. It is set-apart to יהוה. (Leviticus 27:31) ‘If a man indeed redeems any of his tithes, he adds one-fifth to it. (Leviticus 27:32) ‘And the entire tithe of the herd and of the flock all that passes under the rod, the tenth one is set-apart to יהוה. (Leviticus 27:33) ‘He does not inquire whether it is good or spoilt, nor does he exchange it. And if he exchanges it at all, then both it and the one exchanged for it are set-apart, it is not redeemed.’ ” (Leviticus 27:34) these are the commands which יהוה commanded Mosheh for the children of Yisra’ĕl on Mount Sinai.
There might be some more “traditions” we need to depart from! Knowing His name seems to be more important than many would have us believe! So again- perhaps we have inherited lies…
(Jeremiah 16:19) O יהוה, 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, 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!” (Jeremiah 17:1) “The sin of Yehuḏah is written with a pen of iron, engraved with the point of a diamond on the tablet of their heart, and on the horns of your altars, (Jeremiah 17:2) while their children remember their altars and their Ashĕrim (Easters) by the spreading trees on the high hills. (Jeremiah 17:3) “My mountain in the field, I give as plunder your wealth, all your treasures, your high places of sin, throughout all your borders. (Jeremiah 17:4) “And you, even of yourself, shall let go of your inheritance which I gave you. And I shall make you serve your enemies in a land which you have not known, for you have kindled a fire in my displeasure which burns forever.” (Jeremiah 17:5) Thus said יהוה, “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart turns away from יהוה. (Jeremiah 17:6) “For he shall be like a shrub in the desert, and not see when good comes, and shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, a salt land that is not inhabited. (Jeremiah 17:7) “Blessed is the man who trusts in יהוה, and whose trust is יהוה. (Jeremiah 17:8) “For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the river, and does not see when heat comes. And his leaf shall be green, and in the year of drought he is not anxious, nor does he cease from yielding fruit. (Jeremiah 17:9) “The heart is crooked 1 (Deceitful) above all, and desperately sick – who shall know it? Footnote: 1 See 7:24, 16:12, 18:12, 23:17. (Jeremiah 17:10) “I, יהוה, search the heart; I try the kidneys, and give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds. (Jeremiah 17:11) “As a partridge that broods but does not hatch; so is he who gets riches, not by righteousness. It leaves him in the midst of his days, and at his end he is a fool.” (Jeremiah 17:12) An esteemed throne, exalted from the beginning, is the place of our set-apart place. (Jeremiah 17:13) O יהוה, the expectation of Yisra’ĕl, all who forsake you are put to shame. “Those who depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken יהוה, the fountain of living waters.” 1 Footnote: 1 See 2:13. (Jeremiah 17:14) Heal me, O יהוה, so that I am healed. Save me, so that I am saved, for you are my praise.
Hey this is not instructions for just marriage- but also friends, associates- etc. ---
(2 Corinthians 6:14) Do not become unevenly yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness? And what fellowship has light with darkness? (2 Corinthians 6:15) And what agreement has Messiah with Beliyaʽal? Or what part does a believer have with an unbeliever? (2 Corinthians 6:16) And what union has the Dwelling Place of Elohim with idols? You are a Dwelling Place of the living Elohim, as Elohim has said, “I shall dwell in them and walk among them, and I shall be their Elohim, and they shall be my people.”
Perhaps we should really pay attention to what YHWH describes through Moses and the Prophets what is CLEAN and UNCLEAN!
(2 Corinthians 6:17) Therefore, “Come out from among them and be separate, says יהוה, and do not touch what is unclean, and I shall receive you. (2 Corinthians 6:18) “And I shall be a Father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me, saysיהוה the Almighty.”
Loved One- our prayer for you and your loved ones is simple. That you make opportunity to give thanks to Him who gives you breath, that He will direct you, protect you, provide for you and use you mightily to produce fruit (more brothers and sisters) for His Kingdom- especially since we all know our time is temporary here- also that you are a light and a witness to those not yet “sold out” to obedience to YHWH that brings blessings not curses. We know that legalism is obeying man made and added commands and pagan holidays and obeying Him always brings blessings and is called OBEDIENCE!
I would encourage you to consider praying and seeking the Father’s face regarding drawing nearer to the safest place on the planet- HEARING AND OBEYING HIM! We can trust our Elohim! We will likely be happy we are not allowed among the wicked (Soros and company) as they plan our demise! Hee Hee This life is quite temporary in this flesh body- knowing this let’s live our lives that we may believe YHWH- that if we ask ANYTHING that is according to His word, and we know He hears us; we KNOW we have the things we have asked for! Hallelu-YAH!
(1 John 1:9) If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 5:14) And this is the boldness that we have in Him, that if we ask whatever according to His desire, He hears us. (1 John 5:15) And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him!
I pray also that you walk in Him as HIS REMNANT and produce His fruit that remains! I further pray that you learn to walk in His supernatural gifts by faith and trust and further that you walk in obedience and so in love with the Messiah that you FEAR NOT! Thanks for your prayers for us that we also walk in His power, love and obedience; and that YHWH directs, provides, and protects us and our loved ones! Billie and I believe your wonderful prayers are seeds for your own loved ones- PRAISE YHWH! OUR DELIVERER IS COMING! You are much loved!
Shalom to your home Loved One,
Thurston
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! Especially since we are the ten (Ten scattered northern tribes scattered for Easter and sun god day worship which parallels closely as a pig slop eating prodigal brother)
Let’s look; (Zechariah 8:22) ‘And many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek יהוה of hosts in Yerushalayim, and to pray before יהוה.’ (Zechariah 8:23) “Thus said יהוה of hosts, ‘In those days (Now? YES and in the future also!) Ten men (10 scattered northern tribes called Ephraim and Israel) from all languages of the nations take hold, yea, they shall take hold of the edge of the garment of a man, a Yehuḏite 1, saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that Elohim is with you.” ’ ” Footnote: 1John4:22.
