We are walking in today: Weekend Meditation--We Took Obedience Out Of Faith!
Here are the next 10 principles of the Lord God Almighty. This arrangement of the 613 principles, the law of our Lord God Almighty, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is from the book by Rabbi Ralph Messer, Torah: Law Or Grace? Kingdom Principles For Kingdom Living. This book can be ordered online here or in the store if you are in the Denver area here.
The Fourth Commandment Exodus 20:8-11
Remember the Sabbath day, to sanctify it. Six days you shall
work and accomplish all your work; the seventh day is Sabbath to the
Lord , your God; you shall not do any work--you, your son, your
daughter, your slave, your maidservant, your animal, and your convert
within your gates--for in six day the Lord made the heavens and the
earth, the sea and all that is in them, and He rested the seventh day.
Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and sanctified it.
367. You shall sound and hear the shofar on Yom Teruah --Numbers 29:1 And in the seventh month,
on the first day of the month, ye shall have an holy convocation; ye
shall do no servile work: it is a day of blowing the trumpets unto you.
368. You shall offer the prescribed Elevation-Offering on Yom Kippur --Numbers 29:7-8 7
And ye shall have on the tenth day of this seventh month an holy
convocation; and ye shall afflict your souls: ye shall not do any work
therein:8 But ye shall offer a burnt offering unto the Lord for a
sweet savour; one young bullock, one ram, and seven lambs of the first
year; they shall be unto you without blemish:
369. You shall offer the prescribed Elevation-Offerings on each day of Sukkot --Numbers 29:13 And ye shall offer a burnt offering, a sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord; thirteen young bullocks, two rams, and fourteen lambs of the first year; they shall be without blemish:
370. You shall offer the prescribed Elevation-Offering on the eighth day of Sukkot --Numbers 29:36 But ye shall offer a burnt offering, a sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord: one bullock, one ram, seven lambs of the first year without blemish:
371. You shall not demand payment debts remitted in the 7th year --Deuteronomy 15:2 And this is the manner of
the release: Every creditor that lendeth ought unto his neighbour shall
release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbour, or of his brother;
because it is called the Lord's release.
372. You shall remit the debts of your brother in the 7th year --Deuteronomy 15:3 Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it again: but that which is thine with thy brother thine hand shall release;
373. You may demand payment of debts from a gentile--debts not remitted in the 7th year --Deuteronomy 15:3
374. You shall not refuse to lend to your destitute brother because the year of remission is near --Deuteronomy 15:9 Beware that there be not a
thought in thy wicked heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of
release, is at hand; and thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and
thou givest him nought; and he cry unto the Lord against thee, and it be sin unto thee.
375. You shall not send your Hebrew bondservant away empty-handed --Deuteronomy 15:13 And when thou sendest him out free from thee, thou shalt not let him go away empty:
376.
You shall adorn your Hebrew bondservant generously from your flocks,
from your threshing floor, and from your wine cellar --Deuteronomy 15:14
Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of thy floor, and out of thy winepress: of that wherewith the Lord thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him.
Matthew 5:11-20 11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. 13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. 14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. 17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Fiveamprayer is faith a noun or verb? In my opinion the second most misused word in the Bible is faith, law is the first. This word has become a large part of every day language: you gotta have faith, I have faith in you, where is your faith? With this common use of this word do we really know what it means? Let us look at scripture. Destroy the law is a Hebraic term meaning to misinterpret or cause an incorrect interpretation of scripture. The words faith and belief are often used as synonyms. From a Hebraic mindset there are several root words that are translated as faith. Aman is one of them, meaning faith, faithful, believe, assurance, nursing. Numbers 11:11-12 contains the term nursing father in reference to Moses caring for the children of Israel. This illustrates the child like faith of those over them in caring and providing for every need. That they and us would come to the Adonai in total trust for every need being supplied by Him. To believe in Yahweh does not necessarily mean to believe Yahweh. This lead to taking away following the Torah and less focus and study on the Tanakh. In this manner, Christianity has become spiritual Israel who went away from Yahweh's law. The enemy found victory in the re-defining the word faith. Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Faith is a personal commitment to follow, believing Yahweh and trusting Him. This is an action word like most of the Hebrew language is in motion. Fiveamprayer, faith is a response to the davar Elohim, the word of God. It is about obedience not sacrifice, this is our natural response to commitment. This is a do, more than just believing, this word faith. This is not something that you get it is always something that you are doing. True faith is a hear and do! We find in Matthew 8:5-10 a trusting obedience, faith. It is not unseen or blind but a flow of obedience from a higher authority. 1 Corinthians 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. True faith is manifested by obedience to a higher authority, fiveamprayer! Praise Yahweh, for He has given us a how to guide for His will for our lives, the Torah. Don't just believe--do!
