Reflection: Proverbs 4:11-12,

Der Yahuah,

We thank You for Your Son, YAHUSHA, who died for our sins, our sacrificial lamb, the Lion of Yahudah.   We have been set free from the pit of She'ol, we have been redeemed and delivered.   HALLELUYAH.   Thank You that we can walk with You and talk with You, and You can call us Your children.   

We seek You, we choose to be present with You, we choose life from the Bread of Life and to drink from the Living Water.   We choose to honor Your Word and obey it.   May our emotions come into alignment with You.   We ask for grace to forgive and release others who have hurt us in the past.   Mend hurting hearts and minds, restore hope, and may Your people be delivered from the past.   We declare we will walk in forgiveness to all.

May we set our standards to Your standards, may we not mock You, may we not be disobedient, and may we live our lives for You.   The wisdom of this world is foolishness in Your eyes.   May we walk in Your light, help us to be strong and not falter, open our spiritual ears and eyes to hear and see You, to be in Your presence.   May we sow to the RUACH, may we produce good fruit, may we yield to Your Word.   May we do what is right and to be obedient,   Let your RUACH train us to be children of the Light.

YAHUSHA, thank You for looking out for those in need.  Help us to be more like You, that we would care for others, showing them Your Love.

Amein and Amein.

Dear YAHUAH,

We thank You and praise Your qodesh name, we are thankful for a good nights rest and safety in traveling last night.   We lift up our brother Ray to You, we pray for healing from his cold and his father who has been placed in hospice with advance cancer.   We lift up our sister Eve who lost her husband after having a stroke, give her peace as she makes adjustments to her lifestyle.   We also life up our sister Anne to you, who has been struggling with a troubled marriage, give her closer, peace, and remove the hurt she has been suffering.

We forgive those who have hurt us, we release them from there offenses.   Forgiveness is an action and a decision based upon truth, as well as love.   We release those who have hurt us in the past, we love and forgive them.   May any bitterness we are holding within, be released, heal our hardened hearts.   Release us from the chains which are restraining us.  We want Your forgiving nature, YAHUSHA, just as You forgave those who murdered You.  Help us to forgive others as You have forgiven us.

We want to be ambassadors in Your name, showing love as You showed love.   May we always set You before us, may we be joined in You, may we not be shaken.   Whatever the future holds, we shall set You before us.   

May Your Word offer us direction, protection, and understanding.   Thank You for the Shalom, beyond understanding, that You give us.   May we meditate upon Your Word day and night, may we hide Your Word in our hearts, may we .say "It is well with my soul."  May Your Word fill us with knowledge of You, may Your Word correct us, may we take Your Word seriously.   Thank You Your Word, which is the source of life within us.   May Your Word refine us of any impurities in us, may Your Word be a light unto our path.

We need Your discretion, nourishment, and strength.   We seek the ELOHIYM of Love, Hope, Joy, and Shalom, in whom we trust.   May we overflow with power in the RUACH HA'QODESH.   We declare our life to be filled to overflowing through Your RUACH.    We praise You and Your RUACH, for You crown us with love and compassion, You saved us from the pit, and You are always with us and You never change.

Reflection: Isaiah 2: 2-3

Dear YAHUAH, 

We ask You to help us de-complicate life, as life can be complicated at times.   Help us to approach You with a child-like attitude.   May we gaze upon You and seek You, may we not be double-minded.   May we be focused upon Your Son, YAHUSHA, may we drink from the living well of water.   We thank You for Your Son, for his sacrificial love, for his cleansing Blood, and for delivering us and redeeming us from sin.   

We ask for ears to hear and eyes to see.    Remove the veil which inhibits our abilities to hear and see.   May we be like Mary and submit to You and hear You clearly, instead of being busy like Martha.   Help us keep our relationship focused upon You, may we keep it as simple as a child, may we be obedient.   

We pray for peace for those who are anxious, peace for those who are tired, and that we have ears to hear what Your RUACH is saying to us.   May we lay up treasures in heaven, may our hearts be set upon You.  May our security be based upon the things above and not on the things of this world.

Thank You, YAHUSHA, that You are the answer for all things, our eternal life depends upon You,.   We give You the throne of our hearts, You are worthy of our devotion and praise.  The treasures of this world pass away, so we trust in You and devote our lives to the things that matter, the things of Your Kingdom.   May we honor You in our words, actions, and thoughts.   Thank You, YAHUSHA, for setting us free and giving us rest in You.   

Help us to examine ourselves, may we be obedient to Your Truth, may we be critical of our thoughts, words, and deeds.   ABBA Father, there is so much heartbreak and uncertainty in this world.   Help us to learn to follow You past whatever we understand to the wonder of Your life breathing new life which surrounds us.   May we surrender to You, may we reach and seek beyond the boundaries of knowing and trust You in all things.   We are pressed from all sides and not crushed, we are perplexed but are not in despair,   we have been persecuted, but not abandoned, we have been struck down but not destroyed.   May we fix our eyes upon You and the things above, for the things of this world are only temporary.

Amein and Amein.

All-sufficient YAHUAH, we know that without You, we can do nothing.   Thank You for always being with us, for perfectly knowing us and for being our true Helper in time of needs.

The Last Week of YAHUSHA's life - Passion Week

One area that troubled me when I began my Hebraic walk, was the the last week of Yahusha's life on this earth, commonly referred to as Passion Week..  In Scripture, Yahusha gives a clue in Matthew 12:40, “For as Yonah was three days and three nights in the stomach of the great fish, so shall the Son of Aḏam be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth."    This would indicate that Yahusha would be in the grave for 72 hours.  If Yahusha died on Good Friday and placed in the grave the same day, then arose on early Sunday morning, we do not see a 72 hour period.

  • Before I begin, lets look at how a Hebrew day is defined in Scriptures.  The one thing we will all agree upon is that night and day is composed of 24 hours.    Lets look at scripture to see how a 24 hour day is defined.
    • Genesis 1:5 -> And Elohim called the light ‘day’ and the darkness He called ‘night.’ And there came to be evening and there came to be morning, one day
    • John 11:9 ->  יהושע (YAHUSHA) answered, “Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. 
    • John 9:4 -> It is necessary for Me to work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day – night is coming, when no one is able to work
    • Jeremiah 6:4 -> “Set apart battle against her. Arise, and let us go up at noon. Woe to us, for the day goes away, for the shadows of the evening are lengthening
    • Based upon the scripture verses above:
      • A 24 hour period consists of darkness (night) and light (day).
      • The day consists of morning and evening.   A twelve hour day would be reached at the equinoxes, as there would be twelve hours of light and twelve hours of light. 
      • The Hebrew day begins at sunset and goes until the sunset of the following day, based upon the Creation day.
      • Link showing the breakdown of a Hebrew 24 hour day.
  • Next we need to establish fixed points to establish a timeline for YAHUSHA's last week upon this earth.
    • The Passover (Pěsaḥ - the sacrificing of the Passover Lamb)
      • Leviticus 23:5 - 8
        • (5) ‘In the first new moon, on the fourteenth day of the new moon, between the evenings, is the Pěsaḥ to יהוה (YAHUAH).    (6)  ‘And on the fifteenth day of this new moon is the Festival of Matzot (Unleavened Bread) to יהוה (YAHUAH) – seven days you eat unleavened bread.    (7)  ‘On the first day you have a set-apart gathering, you do no servile work.   (8)  ‘And you shall bring an offering made by fire to יהוה (YAHUAH) for seven days. On the seventh day is a set-apart gathering, you do no servile work.’ 
    • Feast of First Fruits 
      •  Leviticus 23:11 -> ‘And he shall wave the sheaf before יהוה (YAHUAH) , for your acceptance. On the morrow after the Sabbath the priest waves it. 
    • The Hebrew Week
      • Genesis 2:2 -> And in the seventh day  Elohim completed His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made.
      • Exodus 20: 8 - 11 ->   (8) “Remember the Sabbath day, to set it apart.   (9) “Six days you labor, and shall do all your work,   (10) but the seventh day is a Sabbath of יהוה (YAHUAH) your Elohim. You do not do any work – you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates.   (11)  “For in six days יהוה (YAHUAH) made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore יהוה (YAHUAH) blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart. 
    • Mary (Miryam) of Maḡdala (Magdalene) enters YAHUSHA's grave.
      • And on day one of the week Miryam from Maḡdala came early to the tomb, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been removed from the tomb. 
  • Based upon the above verses from Scriptures, the link below shows the timeline I believe occurred for YAHUSHA to be in the grave 3 nights and 3 days.
Again, this is what I believe to be the timeline.  Whether you agree or disagree, you should test the ruach on your own, instead of rely on what someone has taught You in the past.   Please feel free to leave comments regarding your thoughts.

יהוה bless you and guard you; 
יהוה make His face shine upon you, and show favor to you; 
יהוה lift up His face upon you, and give you peace.

Thank You, that You are an ELOHIYM who restores, who heals, who cleanses, and who saves.   Thank You for making us Your children and cleansing us through YAHUSHA HA'MASSIACH.   We at one time had been cursed, but now You redeemed us and cleansed us.   May we be salt to this world.   May You redeem the lost, heal and cure them, and may You cleanse them through the Blood of YAHUSHA.   We decree people who are lost shall be saved, the Blood of YAHUSHA is stronger than the curse of Sin.

There are many other verses about evil, you can do you own internet search or look at a Bible Concordance.  Please consider your words and actions with others.  Are you causing suffering, injury, ruin, pain, harm or destruction to others?

יהוה (YAHUAH) bless you and guard you; 
יהוה (YAHUAH) make His face shine upon you, and show favor to you; 
יהוה (YAHUAH) lift up His face upon you, and give you peace. 

What is Truth?

 This morning, while I was reading 1 John 2, I was reminded of Pontius Pilate, when he asked YAHUSHA, "What is Truth?" (John 18:38).   So what is Truth?   I believe we should let Scriptures define Scriptures and use the below verses to define Truth.

  • Psalm 119:142 ->  Your righteousness is righteousness forever, And Your Torah is truth
  • John 14:6 -> יהושע (YAHUSHA) said to him, “I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. 
  • John 8:32 -> and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” 
  • 2 Timothy 2:15 -> Do your utmost to present yourself approved to Elohim, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly handling the Word of Truth
  • Ephesians 6:14 ->  Stand, then, having girded your waist with truth, (Isaiah 11:5) and having put on the breastplate of righteousness (Isaiah 59:17),
  • Below is a link to a Blog which I had posted about YAHUSHA being the living and walking Torah.    YAHUSHA - the Living and Walking TORAH

Looking at the above definitions, let's look at the verses from 1 John 2: 3-6.
  • 1 John 2:2  And He Himself is an atoning offering for our sins, and not for ours only but also for all the world.
  • 1 John 2:3  And by this we know that we know Him, if we guard His commands. (See  1 John 3:6.) 
  • 1 John 2:4  The one who says, “I know Him,” and does not guard His commands, is a liar, and the truth is not in him
  • 1 John 2:5  But whoever guards His Word, truly the love of Elohim has been perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him. (See Genesis 17:1, Psalm 119:1, Matthew 5:48,  1 John 3:24). 
  • 1 John 2:6  The one who says he stays in Him ought himself also to walk, even as He walked. 
Does this give you a new perspective on verses from 1 John 2?  Brothers and Sisters, we are living in a time where we need to know the truth and be obedient to YAHUAH's Word.  Find YAHUSHA, the Living and Walking Torah,  while You can, the day is coming when the door will be closed.

יהוה (YAHUAH) bless you and guard you; 
יהוה (YAHUAH) make His face shine upon you, and show favor to you; 
יהוה (YAHUAH) lift up His face upon you, and give you peace.

Thank You for waking up to the sound of robins singing a glorious song.   May we sing songs of praise to You and may they be sweet music to Your ears and may we worship You with a pure heart.

We lift up to You our federal Supreme Court Justices and State Justices.   We ask You to speak to them and through them.   We pray for Justices with integrity and thank You for the good Judges You have placed within our courts.   Remind the judges that they should rule justly for You, as they serve for You, may righteousness prevail in our courts.   We pray that justice shall be served for the aborted babies, that the Supreme Court will stop this abomination.   We pray for Justice Clarence Thomas who has been hospitalized due to illness, place Your healing hand upon him.   May our Court Justices come into alignment with Your will.   We pray for the unsaved Justices souls, may they hear Your voice and be saved.   We declare the hand of YAHUAH shall touch our Justices with favor.

Thank You for Your Son, YAHUSHA HA'MASSIACH, who is our only hope.   Help us to discern those we fellowship and how we live our lives.   We pray for wisdom to recognize the devil's workings, help us to test the RUACH to insure what we hear aligns with Your Word.   May we not be lead in error, help us to recognize false prophets, help us to be mindful of the words we speak, and may our words glorify Your QODESH name.   

We stand on Your Word, we trust Your Word, may we be open minded to Your Word.  Teach and instruct us through Your Word, may Your Word be our guide and measuring stick.

ABBA FATHER, we may not be experts at evangelizing to others, but we are experts at what brought us to You.   At times we have struggles at evangelizing, heavenly FATHER, so show us simple and effective ways to share the Good News about Your Son, YAHUSHA HA'MASSIACH.

Amein and Amein.

Reflection: Deuteronomy 35:21

Dear YAHUAH, 

As the psalmist writes, "Today is a day YAHUAH has made, let us rejoice and be glad."   

We are so blessed to have another day to produce fruit for You.   We pray for Your Angel's to bring about a reversal amongst the nations.   We pray for a reversal of oppressing rulers, we pray for a return to the American way.   May the corrupt elected officials be shaken, removed, and exposed for their evil.  Let freedom and turn-arounds be seen again in this country.   May Your people be awakened and shaken to Truth as we come into agreement with Heaven.   Release Your Angels to thwart the plans of the enemy.   We decree and declare a turn-around shall occur amongst the nations.    

Thank You for Your Son, YAHUSHA, that we are still standing after all of our battles.   Thank You for all of the mountains we have overcome.   Thank You that You are an ELOHIYM who restores and heals, you are the Bread of Life, the Fountain of Living Water.  We are triumphant because of You, You are the Light of Life, You are a Waymaker, the Good Shepherd, our Redeemer and Deliverer, and You are the Lion of the Tribe of Yahudah.  Thank You again YAHUSHA.   

We believe in You and place our hope in You.   Only You can give us Shalom, not this world.  Your rod and staff produces comfort in us.   We can live in joy and shalom through You, our Savior.   Let Your RUACH encourage us, may he lift our faith, and may He instruct us to Your way and Your Word.

Heavenly Father, help us to choose to serve You today with everything we do.   Show us the gifts You have given us to serve others.

Amein and Amein.

Dear YAHUAH,

Oh, how great is Your Faithfulness, from morning to morning, we see new mercies.   All that we need, Your Hands have provided, You are so faithful to Your promises, how great is Your Faithfulness.

We ask that You prepare us for the battles ahead against the powers of darkness.  Through our prayers of intercession, help us enforce the victory that is ahead.   Satan and his minions are over stepping their boundaries.   We claim the words spoken by YAHUSHA, to bind the enemy, to have the enemy return seven-fold what he has stolen from us, that which is rightfully ours.   We declare no weapon formed against us can overcome us, which has been given to us through YAHUSHA's death.   We declare the Sword of YAHUAH, Your Word, is more powerful than the enemy.  

It is well with our souls, as we know You, we seek You, and we place our hope and our trust in You.   Our faith is in You, ABBA FATHER.   You will never abandon us on our darkest days.   In the midst of all the turmoil we see You.    We can only see what .is in front of us, but You can see the past, present, and the future.   You are working out all things for Your good.  

Thank You, through Your Son, we have life.   The enemy comes to kill, steal, and destroy.  Our Good Shepherd has come to give us life abundantly, the Good Shepherd has come to lead us to still waters, and the Good Shepherd is Truth; Love; and Joy.   The Good Shepherd has come to give us Shalom.   May we focus on our Creator and his risen Son.   We ask you to remove our fears and worries.   You know what is best for us, no matter what takes place in this world, You are in control.   

Thank You for Your amazing Love.   May we be faithful in prayer, may we rise above anxiety, may our thoughts and words produce good fruit for You.   ABBA FATHER, may Your extra-ordinary love flow through us in ordinary ways.   May we forgive others and nourish our vineyards in the soil of ordinary acts of thoughtfulness as You provide what we need.

Amein and Amein.

YAHUSHA - The Living and Walking TORAH

Let us take a look at the below verse from John 14:6, which contains a powerful message, in 3 short phrases.   

  • John 14: 6 :יהושע (YAHUSHA) said to him, “I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. 
  • YAHUSHA says that "I am the Way"
    • Psalm 119:1 - > Blessed are the perfect in the way, Who walk in the Torah of יהוה (YAHUAH)! 
  • "YAHUSHA says that "I am the Truth
    • Psalm 119:142 -> Your righteousness is righteousness forever, And Your Torah is truth.
    • Psalm 119:160 -> The sum of Your word is truth, And all Your righteous right-rulings are forever. 
  • YAHUSHA says that "I am the Life"
    • Proverbs 13:4 -> The Torah of the wise is a fountain of life, Turning one away from the snares of death. 
  • This can be seen in Isaiah 2:2-4, which is a prophecy referring to YAHUSHA.
    • Isaiah 2:2-4 -> And it shall be in the latter days that the mountain of the House of יהוה (YAHUAH) is established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills. And all nations shall flow to it.   (3) And many peoples shall come and say, “Come, and let us go up to the mountain of יהוה (YAHUAH), to the House of the Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ (Jacob), and let Him teach us His ways, and let us walk in His paths, for out of Tsiyon comes forth the Torah, and the Word of יהוה (YAHUAH) from Yerushalayim.”   (4) And He shall judge between the nations, and shall reprove many peoples. And they shall beat their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither teach battle any more
    • From this verse we see the phrase,  Word of יהוה (YAHUAH), which is defined in Revelation 19:13., which points to the WORD of YAHUAH being YAHUSHA, our MASSIACH (Messiah).
      • and having been dressed in a robe dipped in blood – and His Name is called: The Word of יהוה (YAHUAH).

    Based upon the Bible verses from above, we can see YAHUSHA being the Word of Truth, the Walking Torah.   At the end, YAHUSHA says "No one comes to the Father except through Me."
    • 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17 - > (13) Now, brothers, we do not wish you to be ignorant concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you be sad as others who have no expectation. (14) For if we believe that יהושע (YAHUSHA) died and rose again, so also Elohim shall bring with Him those who sleep in יהושע (YAHUSHA). (15) For this we say to you by the word of the Master, that we, the living who are left over at the coming of the Master shall in no way go before those who are asleep. (16) Because the Master Himself shall come down from heaven with a shout, with the voice of a chief messenger, and with the trumpet of Elohim, and the dead in Messiah shall rise first. (17) Then we, the living who are left over, shall be caught away together with them in the clouds to meet the Master in the air – and so we shall always be with the Master.
Finally, I would like to leave you with something to ponder upon.   Through my walk, I have learned, "in order to understand the beginning, you need to understand the end.  In order to understand the end, you need to understand the beginning.  Everything in the Bible is cyclical, it goes around in a complete circle.   Lets look at the creation story, and ponder what Scripture is telling us.   Let us look at the following verses from Bere'shiyth (In the Beginning / Genesis).
  • Genesis 1:1-3 -> In the beginning Elohim created the heavens and the earth.   (2) And the earth came to be formless and empty, and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of Elohim was moving on the face of the waters. (3) And Elohim said, “Let light come to be,” and light came to be
  • Genesis 1::14:17 - > And Elohim said, “Let lights come to be in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signs and appointed times, and for days and years,  (15)  and let them be for lights in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth.” And it came to be so.   (16)  And Elohim made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night, and the stars.   (17)  And Elohim set them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth, 
  • John1:1-5 ->  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim.   (2)  He was in the beginning with Elohim.   (3)  All came to be through Him, and without Him not even one came to be that came to be. (4) In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.   (5)  And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. 
If the sun and the moon were not created until day 4 of creation, what is the Light referred to on day 1.   Let me know your thoughts.

“יהוה (YAHUAH) bless you and guard you; 
יהוה (YAHUAH) make His face shine upon you, and show favor to you; 
יהוה (YAHUAH) lift up His face upon you, and give you peace.” ’

Oh bless ELOHIYM TSE'VAOTH, oh my soul, we worship your Holy Name and we shall sing like never before.   The sun is rising and a new day is beginning.   Whatever may pass us and whatever lies before us, let us be singing when the evening comes as we celebrate Your Shabbat as the sun sets today.

Thank You for being our stronghold and waymaker.   May we hear Your roar from Mount Tsiyon, may You be our refuge during these troubled times.   We await the roar from the King of Kings, the Lion of Yahudah.   May you arise with a loud shout of victory.   May the Shofar (Trumpet) sound; may freedom, liberty, and righteousness prevail, and may the enemy flee.   We shout to You with a voice of singing and pray with passion.   Our ADONI ELOHITM shall rule and reign over all nations.   When You arise, Your enemies will be scattered and those who hate You shall flee before You.   

Thank You for hearing and answering our prayers.  Use our prayers to the Glory of Your Name and to Your Will.   We release healing in our bodies, we release our family members from the sins and deceptions they have fallen to.   We decree that the RUACH HA'QODESH's power shall be released by our prayers.  

Thank You for the Light of the World, Your one and only begotten Son, YAHUSHA.   May we be full of the Light in these dark times.   Light is pure and cannot be overcome by darkness.   May our light shine brightly for you, may others see our good works so that Your Name may be glorified.  

May we have a burden for the lost souls.   May we seek Your Kingdom firstly, may we be obedient to Your Word.   We will stand in Faith, we will stand upon Your promises.   We believe in the power that is in YAHUSHA HA'MASSIACH, we believe we have victory, we have been cleansed, we have been redeemed and delivered, we can stand up high and lift Your royal banner.   We ask You, oh YAHUAH, to be with us as we stand up for You.

Oh Heavenly FATHER, our ABBA FATHER, we know You hold the answers to all the choices we must make.   As we seek Your RUACH of Wisdom, please show us clarity and the strength to boldly move forward with You.   May we trust You at all times and not lean upon our own understanding.  We submit to You, may You make our paths straight.

Amein and Amein.

Will you enter Through the Gates of Heaven?

Brothers and Sisters, considering the current events taking place, have you ever wondered about your salvation?   Have you pondered upon where you will be spending Eternal Life?  Have you read about the End of Times, the Day of ADONI (the LORD), or the times of Ya'aqoḇ's (Jacob's) trouble in the Bible?   I hope this writing will open your eyes to what you may have been taught and what Scriptures tells us.

Let's examine the Bible verses below from Matthew 7:21-23 (taken from the TS2009 Bible), 

  • Mat 7:21 Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Master, Master,’ shall enter into the reign of the heavens, but he who is doing the desire of My Father in the heavens. 
  • Mat 7:22  “Many shall say to Me in that day, ‘Master, Master, have we not prophesied in Your Name, and cast out demons in Your Name, and done many mighty works in Your Name?’ 
  • Mat 7:23  “And then I shall declare to them, ‘I never knew you, depart from Me, you who work lawlessness!’ 

  •  There are some keywords that we need to look at:
    • Master, comes from the Greek word, kyrios (G2962).   The word, kyrios, is translated into: LORD/Lord/lord, Master/master, and Sir/sir.  Some Bible translations will also have ADONI.
      •  He to whom a person or thing belongs, about which he has power of deciding; master, lord
        • The possessor and disposer of a thing
          • The owner; one who has control of the person, the master
          • In the state: the sovereign, prince, chief, the Roman emperor
        • Is a title of honor expressive of respect and reverence, with which servants greet their master
        • This title is given to: YAHUAH and YAHUSHA HA'MASSIACH.
    • Lawlessness comes from the Greek word anomia (G458).  The word, anomia is translated into: iniquity, unrighteousness, transgress the law, transgression of the law.
      •  The condition of without law
        • because ignorant of it
        • because of violating it
      • Contempt and violation of law, iniquity, wickedness
  • Now that we have the keywords defined, lets look at Matthew 7:21 and 22.   Who are those that would call YAHUSHA, Master, Master?  Would an atheist call our savior, YAHUSHA, Master, Master?  Would an unbeliever call YAHUSHA, Master, Master?  This could only refer to those who call upon the Saviors name.
    • John 3:16-17 -> “For Elohim so loved the world that He gave His only brought-forth Son, so that everyone who believes in Him should not perish but possess everlasting life. 
    • John 3:17  “For Elohim did not send His Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. 
    • Romans 10:31 -> For “everyone who calls on the Name of יהוה (YAHUAH) shall be saved.”
    • Acts 2:21 -> ‘And it shall be that everyone who calls on the Name of יהוה (YAHUAH) shall be saved.’
    • Joel 2:32 -> “And it shall be that everyone who calls on the Name of יהוה (YAHUAH) shall be delivered. For on Mount Tsiyon (Zion)  and in Yerushalayim (Jerusalem) there shall be an escape as יהוה (YAHUAH) has said, and among the survivors whom יהוה (YAHUAH) calls.
  • But wait, verse 23 says, “And then I shall declare to them, ‘I never knew you, depart from Me, you who work lawlessness!’  To answer this, we need to go back to our definition of lawlessness to determine who are those who work lawlessness.
    • Let's look at one more verse, Revelation 22:14.
      •   “Blessed are those doing His commands,  so that the authority shall be theirs unto the tree of life, and to enter through the gates into the city. 
        • Matthew 19:17 -> And He said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good except One – Elohim. But if you wish to enter into life, guard the commands.”
        • John 12:50 -> “And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, as the Father has said to Me, so I speak.”
      • Command/Commandments comes from the Greek word entole (G1785).   The word entole is translated into commandment(s), precept(s).
    • From the definition of lawlessness, we can see this group of people are those who do not keep YAHUAH's commandments.   The Law (Torah) was given to Moses on Mount Horeb, which includes both the 10 Commandments (Exodus 20:2-17) and the Law of Moses (Torah - Exodus 20:18-23:19). 
      • Are we making the seventh day of the week (the Sabbath) our day of rest or following the church, making the first day of the week (Sunday) as our day of rest?  It is fine to worship on Sunday, but we are commanded to do no work or business on the Sabbath.
      • Are we keeping the appointed 7 Feasts (Moedim) as commanded by YAHUAH or celebrating pagan holidays?
  • Conclusion
    • There will be three groups of people on this Earth at the End of Times.
      • The first group are those who do not call on or do not believe in YAHUSHA.   They shall be sent to hell, a place reserved for ha'satan and his demons, where there will be tormenting and mashing of teeth.   I pray we do not fall into this group.
      • The last two groups will be those who call on and believe in YAHUSHA, who shall have eternal life in the New Jerusalem.
        • Those who are obedient and obey the TORAH, shall be given keys to enter the gates of Heaven, the New Jerusalem.
        • Those who will not be allowed to enter the gates, will be those who are workers of iniquity, transgressors, and lawlessness (Torah-less)
          • Related bible verses: 1 Corinthians 6:9-10, Galatians 5:21, Ephesians 5:3-8, Romans 1:29-31, and 1 Timothy 1:9-10
  • It is not my position to judge others, as this will be done on Judgement Day by YAHUSHA, our Savior and Redeemer.  I ask you to pray to YAHUAH and ask him for wisdom, guidance, and instruction on this topic.  I do not want to make this to long, but to open your eyes to what I have learned, and you would research this as well.  I am still learning about this journey, we are all learning and journeying together.
  • Feel free to leave comments on this blog or other topics you would like to see.  
  • Numbers 6:24-36 -> 
    • “יהוה (YAHUAH) bless you and guard you; 
    • יהוה (YAHUAH) make His face shine upon you, and show favor to you; 
    • יהוה (YAHUAH) lift up His face upon you, and give you peace.” ’

 Bible Verses: Isaiah 49:22-26,  Exodus 15:1-12, Exodus 14:16, Luke 8:48, Matthew 14, Philippians 4:6

Dear YAHUAH,

Thank You for Your provision, for Your mercy, and for Your love.   Even though we are undeserving at times, You still love us, watch over us, and never leave us.   You are always in control, even though there are storms.   You shelter us and encourage us to continue in our walk.   You help us persevere through the promises of Your Word.   We truly have a loving and caring Father in Heaven.   

We shall sing to You as You are Highly exalted.   You are our Salvation, You are worthy of our praise, Your right hand is Highly in power, Your right hand is almighty.   You have protected us from being overcome by the enemy.   Who is like You, great is Your faithfulness, You are an awesome ELOHIYM.  

You are a fierce and undefeated warrior.   We are in a spiritual battle, it is a real battle, we need Your Spiritual Weapons.   Equip us and strengthen us with the weapons of Ephesians 6.   Help us to release our weapons against the enemy.   Your Word is power, Your Word is a sharp two-edged sword.   We are the instruments and vessels You have placed here to carry-out Your Will, may we not fail in asking in prayer.   We ask that You awaken the Warrior RUACH in Your people.   We ask You to arise in the Battles with us to bring a destruction of the enemy.   We declare the Warrior Nature of Your Assembly is being awakened through YAHUSHA HA'MASSIACH.

Please end the innocent deaths in Ukraine, Afghanistan, the Middle East, and the innocent babies murdered through abortion.   We thank You for the good report from our daughter that she has been healed from her rash and swelling.

We believe and have faith, may our actions reflect our faith.   We can defeat our fears by placing our burdens upon You, oh YAHUAH.   We want to know You, we want to build upon our relationship with You.   We claim the victory we have been given by YAHUSHA.   We come to You and lay our burdens at Your feet.

We have a YUHUAH who can move mountains, an ELOHIYM that is impossible to overcome, an ELOHIYM who can do miracles.   HalleluYAH.  We may have limitations in our fleshly bodies, but if we reach out to You, You can remove them if it is Your Will and we are obedient to Your Word.   May we experience Your Power.   Thank You that You are in our corner, may we put our faith inaction.   

Oh YAHUSHA, some days and weeks and years feel overwhelming.   Thank You for Your patience, thank you for Your peace which guards us yesterday, today, and forever.  Help us to be an encouragement to others, that they also may be an encouragement.

Amein and Amein.

Prayer for Wednesday, March 9, 2022

 Bible Verses: Hosea 10:12, Psalm 119:105, 2 Timothy 2:12, Galatians 1:10, Colossians 3:23-24, Psalm 36:5, Romans 12:11, Habakkuk 2:3

Dear YAHUAH, 

We come before You on this new day, may all we think be focused upon you, may all we .do be to the glory of Your Name.   It is hard to understand what is taking place in the physical World which we can see.   The enemy seems to be set upon destroying this world, this is a Spiritual Battle.   We call upon the Creator of Heaven and Earth, your people need to be awakened and a Great Revival to take place.   May we sow for righteousness, may we reap according to kindness, help us to break up tillable ground.   May we seek You till Your return and may righteousness rain upon us.   May your will be done, for you are in control.   Your Son, YAHUSHA, has given us victory and we claim that victory.   We acknowledge and decree You are the one and only ELOHIYM.   May we be intercessors for You and grab our plows to till this country.   May Your Glory shine.   

We declare and decree this nation shall be saved.   We decree this country will be healed, this country shall arise once again, and this country shall be revived to a nation under one ELOHIYM.  

May we walk in Your Light and not in darkness, may we walk in the RUACH and not in the flesh, may we walk by faith and not by sight, and may we walk upon the straight and narrow path and not the broad path.   May Your Word be a light unto our paths.   We take up our cross and choose to follow YAHUSHA HA'MASSIACH.   With every morning that we awaken, may You be our motivation for all things.   May we be faithful servants.   When we reach the end of our journey here, may we hear, 'Well done my good and faithful servant".   Teach us to do all things with gratitude.   

May we not be lazy with our journey here.  May we not be prideful or anxious, but have tranquility and peace.   Help us to dwell in Your shelter, may we dwell under the shadow of the almighty ELOHIYM.   ABBA FATHER, we lift up our cares and worries to You.   May we find Shalom in Your tender arms as You hold us close to You.

We lift up our daughter to You, who has a rash, that medical doctors are unable to identify the cause.   Place Your healing hand upon her, realign the cells in her body and may her skin be cleared.   

You, oh YAHUAH, are the fountain of life, in You we see Light.   Continue to love those whom You love and to those who know You.   Continue righteousness to those who are upright in heart.

We pray, oh YAHUAH, that You will send people in our path from many places who shall have something good to tell us.   We say that we will have sufficiency in all things and our cups shall run over.   We pray that we shall flourish abundantly and goodness and mercy will follow us where we go, in YAHUSHA's mighty Name.

Amein and Amein.
