Today's Reading is Exodus
12:1-20
1 The LORD said to Moses and
Aaron in Egypt, 2 "This month is to be for you the first month, the
first month of your year. 3 Tell the whole community of Israel that
on the tenth day of this month each man is to take a lamb [a] for
his family, one for each household. 4 If any household is too small
for a whole lamb, they must share one with their nearest neighbor,
having taken into account the number of people there are. You are to
determine the amount of lamb needed in accordance with what each
person will eat. 5 The animals you choose must be year-old males
without defect, and you may take them from the sheep or the goats. 6
Take care of them until the fourteenth day of the month, when all
the people of the community of Israel must slaughter them at
twilight. 7 Then they are to take some of the blood and put it on
the sides and tops of the doorframes of the houses where they eat
the lambs. 8 That same night they are to eat the meat roasted over
the fire, along with bitter herbs, and bread made without yeast. 9
Do not eat the meat raw or cooked in water, but roast it over the
fire—head, legs and inner parts. 10 Do not leave any of it till
morning; if some is left till morning, you must burn it. 11 This is
how you are to eat it: with your cloak tucked into your belt, your
sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand. Eat it in haste;
it is the LORD's Passover.
12 "On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike
down every firstborn—both men and animals—and I will bring judgment
on all the gods of Egypt. I am the LORD. 13 The blood will be a sign
for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood, I
will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I
strike Egypt. 14 "This is a day you are to commemorate; for the
generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the LORD
-a lasting ordinance. 15 For seven days you are to eat bread made
without yeast. On the first day remove the yeast from your houses,
for whoever eats anything with yeast in it from the first day
through the seventh must be cut off from Israel. 16 On the first day
hold a sacred assembly, and another one on the seventh day. Do no
work at all on these days, except to prepare food for everyone to
eat—that is all you may do.
17 "Celebrate the Feast of Unleavened Bread, because it was
on this very day that I brought your divisions out of Egypt.
Celebrate this day as a lasting ordinance for the generations to
come. 18 In the first month you are to eat bread made without yeast,
from the evening of the fourteenth day until the evening of the
twenty-first day. 19 For seven days no yeast is to be found in your
houses. And whoever eats anything with yeast in it must be cut off
from the community of Israel, whether he is an alien or native-born.
20 Eat nothing made with yeast. Wherever you live, you must eat
unleavened bread."
1.
In this Torah
portion the narrative story begins again with Moses calling the
Children of Israel to ASSEMBLE TOGETHER. This is the pre-cursor to
the SHIKINAH GLORY of the Lord YHWH coming down to dwell in the
midst of the Mishkan.
This is the most amazing prophecy if you have eyes to see
it. Look at the
progression that the Israelites have gone through so far; separated from their FATHER
Ya'akov (Jacob) and from the "Chosen One" Yosef--the one who had
ruled over them in Egypt as their Brother who the remaining 11
Tribes were convinced had "DIED". This is a wonderful picture
of the History of our people.
Sin causes "FAMINE" in our individual lands; there is no food
or water for growing crops to sustain ourselves anywhere. Our FATHER--just like
Ya'akov (Jacob) sends us out looking for food-- and we find food--
in Egypt. However we
cannot have the food because the SON OF PROMISE--Yosef, a type and
shadow of Yeshua --is ruling in Egypt on behalf of--OR EVEN AS
PHARAOH in this far away land, just like YESHUA is RULING even AS THE FATHER and just
like Yosef--Yeshua has been preparing for the great famine that was
over the whole world which is the Great Tribulation Period and
YHWH's judgement of ALL THE FALSE gods OF THE EGYPTIANS. Yosef will NOT just let us
have the FOOD, which is the TORAH: God's Teaching and Instructions
for a right life PLEASING TO HIM.
Yosef WILL GIVE IT TO US, just like YESHUA WILL ASSIGN US AS
RIGHTEOUS BY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, but not until and not without us
confessing our Sin's/Torahlessness that we committed against our
brother Yosef. However,
it is not enough to just ADMIT what was done to YOSEF--because Yosef
MAKES THE BROTHERS commit an ACT OF SELF-SACRIFICE--they must
DEMONSTRATE THEIR REPENTANCE--by bringing Benjamin in, which is a
TYPE AND SHADOW OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE Presenting US--as Benjamin was
presented to Yosef. The
Prophecies of Ezekiel and Jeremiah clearly state that JUDAH COMES
"TO" THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL and not THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL GOING TO
THE HOUSE OF JUDAH.
When we begin living the lifestyle of the Jewish
people--with the fire of the Ruach Elohim--with the FIRE OF
YHWH'S SPIRIT ONCE AGAIN, THEN and ONLY THEN will YOSEF REVEAL
HIMSELF TO HIS BROTHERS and be reunited once again with HIS FATHER'S
HOUSEHOLD.
Then in the same portion Yosef and Ya'akov BOTH DIE. This is a symbol of the Lord
YESHUA dying in our place and Yaakov's/Jacobs death is a type and
shadow of how the 10 Northern Tribes would be "LOST" or considered
"DEAD" amidst the Nations of the World--even though they are present
in EACH and EVERY NATION LANGUAGE AND TONGUE UNDER HEAVEN. Then following their death,
a NEW PHAROAH RISES UP--a type and shadow of the CATHOIC SYSTEM (not the people--as the people
are innocent)--WHO DOES NOT KNOW YOSEF or anything good or bad
that YOSEF had done as the Leader of Egypt under the PHARAOH.
This NEW PHAROAH ENSLAVES THE ISRAELITES--and the dark period
begins. FOR OVER 200
years the ISRAELITES ARE STRUGGLING in SLAVERY and they cry out FOR
A DELIVERER --for the MESSIAH to come and RESCUE THEM from the evil
PHARAOH. This is just
like us in the day to day slavery of our lives without hope in the
earth. FAR AWAY FROM
ISRAEL--and WITHOUT A HOPE.
Then……. YHWH REMEMBERS HIS COVENANT WITH ABRAHAM--and SENDS A
DELIVERER--MOSES--to LEAD THE CAPTIVES FREE--JUST LIKE YHWH
REMEMBERED HIS COVENANT
WITH KING DAVID AND ABRAHAM--and Sent YESHUA THE MESSIAH to come as
the SUFFERING SERVANT OF ISAIAH 53 to DEFEAT ALL THE FALSE GOD'S THE
EVIL PHARAOH HAD PLACED ABOVE THE ISRAELITES. YESHUA defeats EVERY FALSE
god and EVERY FALSE doctrine that is NOT found in HIS
TORAH.
Then YHWH directs MOSES to lead the children of Israel out
FOLLOWING THE FIRST PESACH--the FIRST PASSOVER (which is why we have a Double
Torah Portion with Pekudei in Exodus 12). Even as God has ORDERED THAT
WE ARE SET FREE FROM SLAVERY BY ACCEPTING YESHUA'S SACRIFICIAL
OFFERING AS THE PASSOVER LAMB--ADMITTING US INTO ISRAEL and
AUTHORIZING ALL WHO ARE CIRCUMCISED IN HEART--even as MOSES was--TO
EAT FREELY OF THE PASSOVER SACRIFICIAL LAMB--which we partake of
EACH YEAR AT PASSOVER, and replicate at the SHABBAT KIDDUSH on EREV
SHABBAT each Friday at sundown.
Then the FORMER SLAVES--Who HAD SACRIFICED THEIR FORMER
STATUS--AS SLAVES--Were led THROUGH the REED SEA--which is a type
and shadow of what happens to us when MOSES and THE LIVING TORAH
lead US TO BE MIKVAHED/BAPTISED INTO THE COMMANDMENTS….the true
meaning of the Hebrew Idiom of "IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, AND THE
SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT."
THEN MOSES leads the FORMER SLAVES TO MOUNT SINAI to be
MARRIED TO YHWH. YHWH
gives the former slaves THE TORAH: LIVING INSTRUCTIONS FOR A
SUCCESSFUL MARRIAGE to YESHUA AS THEIR "KETTUBAH" or their Hebrew
Wedding Contract. Just
like MOSES TODAY--LEADS US TO THE WEDDING FEAST--BY IDENTIFYING THE
ONES YHWH HAS CHOSEN TO BE THE BRIDE OF YHWH……….and that BRIDE IS
CALLED "ISRAEL" or the "JEWS" today. If you have been chosen by
the Holy One --Blessed be HE--then YOU TOO ARE A JEW. CIRCUMCISED BY YHWH, and
BAPTISED INTO THE COMMANDMENTS. YOU HAVE NOT REPLACED THE NATURALLY
BORN JEWS--BUT YOU HAVE BEEN GRAFTED INTO THE NATURAL OLIVE TREE
ALONG SIDE OF THE EXISTING JEWISH
NATION!
Well there are those who WILL
NOT ACCEPT THIS CALLING.
THEY WILL SAY "MOSES IS DONE AWAY WITH" and they will ask
THEIR PRIESTS TO MAKE THEM gods that they can SEE--like a
DEAD MAN ON A STICK--and the POPE--A BEAST COVERED IN GOLD WHICH ARE
TWO FROM THE CATHOLIC SYSTEM FOR EXAMPLE. When you bow to these--then
you have also partaken of the "EIGEL"--the REBELLION OF THE GOLDEN
CALF, that results in
3000 dying and a plague breaking out against the NATION because SIN
IS NOT JUST PERSONAL--SIN IS ALSO COMMUNAL.
Moses RETURNS with the Commandments FROM YHWH and they are
thrown down and BROKEN.
This is a TYPE AND SHADOW OF YESHUA COMING DOWN the FIRST
TIME--WHERE THE BIBLE USES THE
WORF "EV'EN" in Hebrew meaning "From Father to
Son." Even as
TODAY THE SPIRIT OF MOSES HAS RETURNED TO THIS GENERATION TO FIND
THAT THERE IS "REVELRY IN THE CAMP" OF YHWH. THOSE WITH MOSES SPIRIT--ARE
CRYING OUT FOR THOSE WHO ARE FOR YHWH TO "COME OUT" to BE
OUTGATHERED--and INGATHERED BACK TO MOSES COMMANDMENTS. SAYING THAT MOSES IS "DONE
AWAY WITH" IS LITERALLY SAYING THAT YESHUA--WHO IS THE PHYSICAL
EMBODIMENT OF THOSE SAME EXACT COMMANDS--IS DONE AWAY WITH (YHWH
FORBID!!).
The Question we have to ask today is who are we? Are we the MOSES and YESHUA
to this generation of Jews and those who DO NOT YET KNOW THEY ARE
JEWS IN THE CHURCHES BECAUSE THEY LOST THEIR IDENTITY in over 2000
years of SLAVERY UNDER AN EVIL PHARAOH--CATHOLIC RULE? Now can you see the
Prophecies ALL Fitting together in a CONTINUOUS PROGRESSION? Yet there is still
more……
After the Wedding at MOUNT
SINAI the children of ISRAEL are asked to make WILLING OFFERING--a
"TERUMAH"--to the Lord YHWH to provide the materials and provisions
for the Mobile Moving Tabernacle in the Wilderness: The
MISHKAN. The people
prepared their offerings of Gold, Silver, and Precious Stones,
Crimson, Blue, Purple and White Weavers Cloth and much more. THE ONE CAVEAT--OR THE ONE
REQUIREMENT FOR THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL IS THAT TO CREATE THIS HOME
FOR THE PRESENCE OF YHWH IN THEIR MIDST THEIR GIVING HAD TO BE
FROM A WILLING HEART.
Today, as we sit in the UNITED
STATES of AMERICA--and live out our lives as BELIEVERS in the GOD OF
ISRAEL--we do many things.
We build, we Destroy, we raise up and we tear down. We rush from this program to
that program, and we have all spent years in the FIRST CHURCH OF THE
FROZEN CHOSEN---ASLEEP IN THE DARKNESS. We were "SAVED" as our
Status Change is based on WHAT GOD DOES--NOT ON WHAT WE
DO, for you are
Delivered from the SINFUL WORLD and placed WITHIN ISRAEL by GRACE
THOUGH FAITH --ONLY.
But then we touted our FREEDOM to the point that we made
Golden Calf after Golden Calf.
And we suffered through them WISHING to just have MORE FAITH,
when we did not have FAITH at all but we had BELIEF.
"FAITH" in the religion of Israel comes from the word
"EMUNAH" which means "STEADFAST OBEDIENCE TO GODS TEACHING AND
ISNTRUCTIONS --THE TORAH."
Yet today most people believe that FAITH MEANS BELIEF or
HOPE. The Demons
believe--shoot even satan "Believes;" in fact I might argue that he
is 110% certain who Yeshua is.
So what separates OUR BELIEF from the fact that the DEMONS OF
HELL and THEIR leader actually BELIEVE?? SHOOT--if you think about
this honestly even satan ACTS ON HIS BELIEFS. HE BELIEVES that HE IS ETERNALLY
CONDEMNED and DAMNED--THUS HE SEEKS TO TAKE AS MANY AS HE CAN WITH
HIM--HIS BELIEF MOTIVATES HIM TO ACT TOO………..SO WHAT IS THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN US AND hastan?? Or US and the demons of
Hell?
The ONLY THING THAT DISTINGUISHES YOU IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD
IS OBEDIENCE TO THE TORAH --DONE BY GRACE and THROUGH FAITH--WHICH
IS THE DEFINITION OF LOVING YHWH. Yet to do this, just like
the Children of Israel in this Torah Portion--we have to distinguish
one thing and one thing only: DO YOU HAVE A WILLING HEART? A Willing Heart Carries the
SHAME of YESHUA, the JEWISH RABBI, the ISRAELI and KING OF THE JEWS
who is REJECTED and SLANDERED--BROKEN and AFFLICTED------FOR SOMEONE
ELSES SALVATION. IS OUR
HEART WILLING? Are we
WILLING to make our TERUMAH--our OFFERINGS of GIVING AND our
OFFERINGS OF SERVICE done solely for the LIFE OF SOMEONE ELSE??
Just getting someone CONVERTED is NOT DISCIPLING THEM TO
MATURITY! TO DISCIPLE
YOU HAVE TO BE INVOLVED AND CARE AND BE WILLING TO
WALK IN THE TRENCHES WITH THEM. DO NOT BE FOOLED INTO
THINKING THAT JUST BY PASSING THE SAMERITANS ON THE HIGHWAY and
STOPPING TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT THEY ARE SAVED--THAT YOU HAVE IN
ANY WAY DONE YOUR DUTIES TO GOD OR MAN. LOVE PREFERS THE "OTHER" and
to PREFER THE OTHERS IT TALES A WILLING HEART. A WILLING HEART is the ONLY
HEART THAT WILL BUILD THE TABERNACLE like the CHILDREN OF ISRAEL DID
ON THIS PORTION.
THERE ARE TWO HELPERS IN THE PORTION--ONE MAN NAMED
"BEZALEL"--MEANING " YHWH SEEN IN SHADOW" who was with the Tribe of
JUDAH--WHO HAS BEEN FILLED WITH A "DIVINE SPIRIT" to complete HIS
TASK OF TAKING THE TERUMAH of the WILLING HEARTED ISRAELITE AND
BUILDING THE MISHKAN--MOBILE MOVING TABERNACLE. The Other Man chosen is
"OHOLIAB" WHICH MEANS "FATHERS TENT" from the TRIBE OF DAN. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL PICTURE
OF THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AND THE HOUSE OF JUDAH. BY REMOVING EITHER
"BEZALEL"--JUDAH, or "OLOLIAB"--CONVERTS FROM THE NATIONS--THE
MISHKAH TABERNACLE WOULD NOT BE BUILT FOR THE PRESENCE OF THE
LORD. BOTH MEN WERE
NEEDED--JUST LIKE BOTH THE JEWS AND CONVERTS THROUGH MESSIAH ARE
NEEDED TO ERECT THIS LAST DAYS
TABERNACLE.
A WILLING HEART MOTIVATES GOD TO DO THE MIRACULOUS, BUT AS
LONG AS OUR VISION IS ON THE HERE AND THE NOW--OF THE PHYSICAL
WORLD, THEN OUR VISION WILL ONLY BE "TEMPORAL" AND "TEMPORARY" AND
WE STAND THE CHANCE OF NEVER ENTERING INTO THE FULLNESS OF THE
PROMISES YHWH GAVE US IN MOSES AND YESHUA= A UNIFIED PEOPLE WITH
YHWH IN OUR MIDST BINDING US TOGETHER INTO A BEAUTIFUL TABERNACLE IN
THE WILDERNESS.
STEPS TO HAVING A WILLING
HEART
1. A Willing Heart is an Obedient
Heart:
Communication's most powerful contributor --believe it or not
--is Vision. The
sign that you are walking in line with the communication of the
Ruach Elohim (Spirit of
God) is that HIS VISION and PURPOSE for the Life He has given
you will become your passion.
The VISION that God has prophesied for this generation is to
REUNITE THE KINGDOM OF ISRAEL UNDER ONE UNIFIED STANDARD and that
STANDARD IS THE LIVING MESSIAH. This Unity is the UNITY that
Yeshua prayed that we would receive in John 17.
Without OBEDIENCE there is NOT A CLEAR
VISION.
OBEDIENCE SETS THE DIRECTION AND THE AGENDA. IT CLEARS OUR MINDS FROM THE
PETTY TO THE IMPORTANT.
THE VISION and the MISSION and the
DECLARATION and IMPLIMENTATION OF GODS VISION --FOR
UNITING THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AND THE HOUSE OF JUDAH--MAKING THE TWO
INTO ONE --AND UNIFIYING HIS THRONE IS PARAMOUNT TO ANYTHING ELSE IN
THIS WORLD. This is the
"KINGDOM OF GOD" that everyone claims to walk in but they have no
power to maintain.
Today in many Churches and Shul's we have "SPIRITUAL
DIALYSIS CENTERS" where you go in--get hooked up and get your
blood cleaned from all the toxins that have built up from the
previous weeks intake and then people are released. The hour of blood cleaning
is a Critical Condition--not a position of
POWER. The
Kingdom of GOD is NOT ABOUT WORDS--we heard the same words in the
Church for decades--and they had NO POWER. People are in such
desperate need for the miraculous--that they literally have created
an effect where they go forward for prayer--and where the Leader
lays hands on them--they fall down on the floor in a demonstration
of acting that would make the Academy Awards in some places. They know that YHWH is not
pressing them to the floor--the Leaders know that YHWH is not
pushing them to the floor….then why do we do it? We know it is not "Slain in
HIS SPIRIT" because HE IS LIFE AND HE THE RESURRECTION --and not
promoting death through "Slain in the spirit"--only satan promotes
death.
These exercises are just another attempt from a finite being
to reach up to an
infinite God with little more than human understanding. Because our sick and damaged
hearts are willing to do anything and everything except the one
thing that YHWH said to do--to OBEY the TORAH. The TORAH is the ROCKET SHIP ON THE LAUNCH PAD OF
YOUR LIFE PROVIDING TRUE POWER, but UNTIL YOU WILLINGLY OBEY --You
will NEVER RISE TO NEW HEIGHTS IN YOUR WALK WITH
YHWH.
ISAIAH 1:19 says " If you are willing and
obedient, you will eat the best from the
land;
MATTHEW 26:41 says " Watch and pray so that you will
not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body
is weak."
ROMANS 12:16 says " Live in harmony with one
another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of
low position. Do not be conceited.
2.
A Willing Heart is a heart that it unencumbered by
the PAST and is focussed on the "What YHWH is doing in the now," in
preparation of the Future.
Whoever your were---and WHATEVER YOU WERE is irrelevant in
light of YOUR CHANGED STATUS.
You may have been a Catholic from Indiana or a Baptist from
OHIO or an AGNOSTIC from Texas--but ALL OF THAT STATUS was to be
SURRENDERED TO GOD at your conversion. Our heart must be WILLING to
leave behind our ABUSE MENTALITY and the "POOR ME" of all the crimes
that our "PARENTS"--and "GRANDPARENTS"--or "FORMER SPOUSES"--did to
us.
Humans even hold on to things we blame GOD for since we did
not get what we wanted or the situation did not turn out the way we
wanted things done. Not
to say that THOSE THINGS DID NOT HURT--THEY DID--but if our focus is
on the VISION of erecting the MISHKAN OF OUR LIVES FOR THE PRESENCE
OF THE LORD YHWH TO WORK IN AND ABIDE THROUGH THEN WE WILL BE ABLE
TO MOVE AHEAD TOWARD JERUSALEM.
YOU CANNOT EVER CHANGE A SINGLE THING IN YOUR PAST--SO STOP
ALLOWING YOUR MISTAKES AND FAILURES TO CLOUD YOUR VISION FOR YOUR
TOMORROW!! WHAT GOD DID
WITH YOU BEFORE--HE WILL GENERALLY NEVER DO WITH YOU AGAIN THE EXACT
SAME WAY BECAUSE HIS KINGDOM IS ADVANCING; IT IS NETHER STATIC NOR
RETREATING. ANYWHERE WE
BUILD AN ALTAR AND STOP TO BOW OUR KNEE--IS CALLED AN "IDOL" --EVEN
IF WE SPIRITUALIZE IT BY CALLING IT AN ALTAR. YOU WERE A
GENTILE---WHICH MEANS "CONFUSED PAGAN UNBELIEVER" BUT
TODAY YOU ARE ISRAEL--CO-RULER WITH YHWH IN THE DOMINION OF
THIS EARTH.
YOUR WILLING HEART TO FORGET
THE SINS--GONE--BY--WILL EMPOWER YOUR
FUTURE."
ISAIAH 43:18 SAYS " Forget the former things; do
not dwell on the past.
ISAIAH 65:16 SAYS " Whoever invokes a blessing in
the land will do so by the God of truth; he who takes an oath in the
land will swear by the God of truth. For the past troubles will
be forgotten and hidden from my
eyes."
ISAIAH 44:21 " Declare what is to be,
present it-- let them take counsel together. Who foretold this long
ago, who declared it from the distant past? Was it not I, the Lord?
And there is no God apart from me, a righteous God and a Savior;
there is none but me"
3.
A Willing Heart is a heart that displays a lifestyle
of worship that manifests in the Signs and Wonders of Deuteronomy 28
in operation THROUGH your life.
IF we obey the Torah, with a WILLING HEART then we will begin
to take on a LIFESTYLE THAT LOOKS LIKE AN IMITATION OF
YESHUA'S. Gone will be
the broken down reasoning that says "I didn't have enough faith"
or "perhaps it was not God's
will for me to receive."
These are the accusation of the Enemy Accuser, not of
YHWH. This is the way
the WORLD THINKS and not the way the CHILDREN OF ISRAEL
THINK. YOU MUST STOP
YOURSELF FROM ALL THOUGHT THAT SENDS YOU INTO A MINDSET THAT
IS OUTSIDE THE COVENANT THAT YHWH PROMISED TO THE SEED OF
ABRAHAM.
IF YOU LIVE OUT THE PROMISE OF THE TORAH THEN YOU WILL BE "A
LIGHT" TO ALL WHO COME INTO CONTACT WITH YOU--YOU WILL BE THE
BLESSING OF DEUTERONOMY 28:1-14. IF YOU LIVE "THE CURSE OF
DISOBEDIENCE TO THE TORAH"--YOU WILL BECOME THE CURSE FOR EVERYONE
YOU COME INTO CONTACT WITH FROM DEUTERONOMY 28:15-64. WHAT YOU CHOOSE IS A SIGN OF
YOUR SONSHIP--OF WHERE YOUR HEART IS
ALIGNED.
DEUTERONOMY 28:1-3 SAYS " 1 If you fully obey the
LORD your God and carefully follow all his commands I give
you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations
on earth. 2 All these blessings will come upon you and accompany you
if you obey the LORD your God:
3 You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country.
DEUTERONOMY 28: 15 SAYS " However, if you do not
obey the LORD your God and do not carefully follow all his
commands and decrees I am giving you today, all these curses
will come upon you and overtake you: 16 You will be cursed in the
city and cursed in the country. 17 Your basket and your
kneading trough will be cursed."
4.
A Willing Heart is a heart which brings down the
Shekinah of YHWH
TO BRING DOWN THE SKIKINAH OF
YHWH, WE MUST PREPARE OUR HEART AS THE TEMPLES FOR THE RUACH
ELOHIM--THE SPIRIT OF GOD MOST HOLY. WE CANNOT MAINTAIN
UNCLEAN LIVES AND EXPECT THE POWER OF GOD TO SHOW UP WITH THE
BLESSING.
THE REUNIFICATION OF THE HOUSE
OF JUDAH AND THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL WILL BRING ABOUT THIS SHIKINAH
GLORY IN A CORPORATE MANNER--BUT UNTIL OUR CONFESSION AND OUR
CONDUCT BECOME THE SAME--THEN WE ARE NOT PREPARING FOR A TABERNACLE
IN THE WILDERNESS--BUT FOR A WANDERING IN CONCENTRIC
CIRCLES.
TO UNDERSTAND THE 4 REALMS AND
HOW WE FIT INTO THE PROCESS OF PREPARING TO "BRING THE MESSIAH DOWN
EACH WEEK--AS WE BRING DOWN HIS KINGDOM --WE MUST FIRST UNDERSTAND
HOW YHWH RELATES TO SPACE AND TIME. TIME IS THE MOST
IMPORTANT--THIS IS WHY THE SABBATH IS THE MOST
IMPORTANT--BECAUSE EVEN YESHUA STOPPED AND RESTED ON THE 7TH
DAY. WHEN SPACE
CONFLICTS WITH TIME [meaning we run out of time to do
all we would like in the 6 working days each week]
--TIME MUST ALWAYS BE GIVEN PREFERENCE LIKE ON THE SHABBAT
AND THE MO'EDIM AND REGALIM (THE FESTIVALS AND APPOINTED TIMES THAT
YHWH HAS SET TO COME FORTH IN OUR MIDST IN POWER.)
LET'S START WITH THE NAME OF GOD:
YHWH
Y-- is transliteration for a Hebrew "Yud" and
stand for "What Was" before Eternity. This is the highest Heavenly
Realm called "Azzilut" --which is the "Throne of YHWH" --Heaven Come Down and
Dwelt among us. THIS IS YESHUA YHWH.
H--is the transliteration for the Hebrew letter
"HAY" and stands for "What IS" currently. This realm is the 3rd Heaven
called "Beriah"--or the place of Creation, "Gan Edan:" the Garden of
Paradise. The mercy
seat of the MISHKAHN which is a type and shadow of Yeshua's physical
body" reopens the pathway to return to this place in the Garden
where the Etz Chayim: The Tree of Life, or "THE TORAH" is free to be eaten and those
who do will live forever.
Once closed and guarded by the swords of two K'ruvim
(Cherubs) because of Adam's Sin--this way is not opened for our
daily return in the Spirit.
W-- is the transliteration for the Hebrew letter
"WAHV" or "What WLL
BE." This is the 2nd
Heaven which is called "Yetzerah "--The place of Spiritual Warfare
where Angels and Demons oppose one another and where WE mandate what
WILL BE by our ACTIONS OF OBEDIENCE--restoration of THE WHAT
WAS.
H-- is the
transliteration for the Hebrew letter "HAY" and when coupled with
the first 3 verbs of YHW+H--it says "WHAT WAS, WHAT IS and WHAT IS
TO COME-- the 4th Heavenly realm called "Assiyah"--The place where
LIGHT and DARKNESS manifest together; this is where we live without
Torah in our lives. If
the LIGHT of Torah is absent, then DARKNESS REIGN'S in CHAOS and
FRUSTRATION. If the
LIGHT of Torah is present--IT DRIVES OUT THE DARKNESS and everything
AFFILIATED with it…..SICKNESS, DISEASE, BEING LAME, BEING MUTE,
BEING DEAF and restores the THRONE OF YHWH IN THIS REALM and HOLDS IT'S PLACE FAITHFULLY
UNTIL HE RETURNS.
THE MISHKAN IS YESHUA and THE
MISHKAN IS ME:
UNDERSTANDING THE REALMS AND HOW THEY RELATE TO THE NAME OF
GOD AND OUR LIFE HELPS US TO KNOW IF WE ARE BLESSED OR WALKING IN
THE CURSE-- IT PROVIDES US DISCERNMENT. IF THE "WAS" and "IS" and
"IS TO COME" are not present then we are not in the light. THE "WAS" and the "IS" and
the "IS TO COME" IS WHAT YESHUA MEANT WHEN HE SAID "I AND THE FATHER
WILL COME IN AND MAKE OUR HOME WITHIN YOU." THAT IS THE "YH" and the
WAHV WAS GIVEN ON SHAVUOT--PENTECOST SO THEN, THE "YH+W" NOW RESIDE
IN THOSE WHO ARE OBEDIENCE AND WILLING IN HEART TO OFFER THEIR LIVES
AS A LIVING SACRIFICE.
THE TORAH IS THE LADDER OF JACOB--IT IS THE "SON OF ADAM"
--THE SON OF YHWH.
MOSES HAD PEOPLE GIVE FROM A WILLING HEART TO ESTABLISH THE
MISHKAN--AND YESHUA IS THE MISHKAN--AND AS WE LEARN TO STUDY AND
WALK IN THE TORAH IN OBEDIENCE TO THE TORAH--WE UNITE THE "WHAT IS
TO COME" WHICH RETURNS US BACK TO THE PRE-ADAMIC STATE ALLOWING US
TO WALK IN THE REALM OF BERIAH--THE REALM OF
CREATION.
MATTHEW 5:1-12 SAYS " 1Now when he saw the crowds, he
went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him,
2and he began to teach them saying:
3"Blessed are the
poor in spirit,
for
theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4Blessed are those
who mourn,
for
they will be comforted.
5Blessed are the
meek,
for
they will inherit the earth.
6Blessed are those
who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for
they will be filled.
7Blessed are the
merciful,
for
they will be shown mercy.
8Blessed are the pure in
heart,
for
they will see God.
9Blessed are the
peacemakers,
for
they will be called sons of God.
10Blessed are those
who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for
theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11"Blessed are you
when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of
evil against you because of me. 12Rejoice and be glad,
because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they
persecuted the prophets who were before
you.
VAYAHEL--AND HE ASSEMBLED. TODAY, LET US NOT HARDEN OUR
HEARTS AS THEY ONCE DID IN THE DESERT. LET US ALWAYS HAVE A WILLING
HEART TO SERVE THE MASTER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH AND BRING DOWN THE
CREATOR--BLESSED BE HE--WITH A LIFE THAT IS AN IMAGE OF HIS PRESENCE
WITHIN OUR OWN MOBILE MOVING TABERNACLE IN THE WILDERNESS OF OUR
LIVES.
