Men Of Torah--Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

Leviticus 11; Genesis 1:29; Acts 10; Romans 14:2-3; Mark 7:19; 1 Timothy 4; Romans 14:14

We are walking in today:  Men Of Torah--Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

Witness true prophet throughout the Bible:  H3651 ken right, just, honest, correct
H5030 navi  speaker, spokesman, prophet
Romans 3:4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
Deuteronomy 18:32; Ezekiel 33:33; Amos 2:11; Luke 18:31; Revelations 22:6

Yahweh gives Moses the commandments to teach the people of the food intended for our bodies in the eleventh chapter of the book of Leviticus.  How could we make bad choices for the temple of God?  He lives in us so why pollute, His dwelling?  Before we received the doctors recommendation and studies on the best food to eat, we had instructions from on high.  Fiveamprayer this is a lifestyle change--no longer seeking what has been advertised to soothe our bodies.  The rush for immediate satisfaction has gotten many of us in a poor position in our health.  Yet when we return to the beginning and eat what Yahweh defines as food there is a marked change in our health.  Wouldn't the manufacturer know which type of gasoline and oil to use in the vehicles they make?  They would not give you the wrong information in the hopes that your car would operate at a sub-par level.  So why would we think that the advertisements on television have our best interest at heart when they did not craft us nor knew us before the beginning began?  What advertisements am I referring to?  The incorrect definition that pork is food.  Seems like there is bacon on everything suddenly and the high amount of shrimp available even at fast food restaurants--when it used to only be available at the higher end establishments.  Fiveamprayer, this is not a judgment but a teaching of what the word says about food.  There was a time that people ate for survival and were not aware of the biblically defined foods.  We can make the correction once we receive the information to do better.  Many of us in our past would order a bacon burger or go out for a fancy surf and turf dinner.  We find that eating what is defined as food according to scripture will extend and benefit our lives greatly.  Like a car that was given the wrong octane of gas will run smoother with the correct fuel.  Isn't it time to get our bodies in their proper holy position?  Leviticus 11:44 For I am the Lord your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.  When we use other means to meet our needs or find comfort from anything but from He who is higher than high--we will fall flat or wane like the closing of a great meal.  Why would He give instructions if we are not to follow them?  We are made in the image and likeness of Yahweh, but do we actually present the Holy One of Israel to the world?  Does your life resemble holiness?  Would others say that you resemble your Heavenly Father? 
The dis-ease that so many experience, stems from our lifestyles.  Take a look at what you eat.  Are you holding on to bitterness?  Just these two examples can have many effects on our health and can produce rebellion and disobedience in our bodies, which is dis-ease.
Yeshua tells us that He did not come to do away with the law but to fulfill it.  All of His word stands forever!  Psalm 119:89 For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heavenIsaiah 40:8 (KJV) The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.  This misunderstanding has made it's way from the past to our current day churches.  All food is acceptable, but all that we eat is not food!  Only what Yahweh considers, defines and directs is food for us.  For He is our creator!  Everything else is not food!  Cease from being correct with the popular opinion and align with the biblical truth!  When Noah entered the ark he took in 7 pairs of clean animals and 1 pair of unclean animals.  Why would a distinction be given if all animals were to be food for us to eat?  Certainly we would need a higher number of clean animals to eat over the unclean animals.  Pay attention that this designation is after the garden of Eden.  It is the Torah that instructs us on how to live holy before a holy God, Yahweh.  The slaves in Egypt, like many slaves were subject to eat for survival.  Now we are able to choose and why not choose life?  Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live.  So what will you choose, the clean or unclean for your dinner plates?
Many of the excluded animals for our diet are those who eat decaying animals--are not food for us.  Fish that lack scales and fins, are not our food.  Anything from the sea that does not having scales and fins is not food.  Not having split, cloven hooves and chews it's cud--is also not food for us.  The only food designated for His creation is defined in His word!  We can eat all food but all that we eat is not food!  All things are considered clean if they are defined by His word as food.  This question can lead us to others.  Are we still under the law?  We have our answer in Matthew 5:17 He came to fulfill not abolish, so yes we are still to follow His word.  All that the King speaks is law!  He teaches us what is defiled, impure, corrupt, filthy, dirty, perverted and unclean in His 613 principles.  Yet we don't know what is food by His standards because we threw out the measuring stick.  Return to the ancient path, the way that was made for us for our very best life!  To hear this teaching again click here.

The Voice Of Jacob, But The Hands Of Esau

Genesis 27; Romans 9:13; Genesis 25:23, 36:9; 2 Kings 8:20-22; Psalm 108:7-9; Ezekiel 36:22-38; Psalm 139:16; Matthew 6:19-21; John 6:27; Isaiah 40:25; Psalm 27:4; Luke 10:41-42; Matthew 6:31-33; Philippians 3:7-8; Luke 16:1-15; Ezekiel 34:2-3, 24:8-10; Galatians 3:26-29; Luke 9:23; Malachi 1:3; Colossians 3:1-2; Genesis 27:30-40; Matthew 22:1-14, 25:1-13; 7:21-23; Esther 4:16; Psalm 144:4; Matthew 5:11-12


We are walking in today:  The Voice Of Jacob, But The Hands Of Esau

Witness Yahweh of Heaven's Army throughout the Bible:  Revelation 1:8, 4:8, 11:7, 15:3, 16:7, 19:6, 19:15, 21:22

The children that fought in the womb of Rebecca are two nations that will be descendants of Jacob and Esau.  This fighting between these brothers was constant for they had strong ideas that happened to be be against each other.  That Esau was fighting his brother so strongly that Jacob had to grab his heel to keep from being stepped upon.  When we study scripture from the Hebraic mindset we find that Jacob was not trying to take from his older brother but did not want the duties that he was to uphold to be diminished.  We find that Esau the firstborn who is to receive the birthright by right which would be a double portion of inheritance from his father, would be responsible to take care of the women and younger siblings in his father's household.  The firstborn is also to have the role of priest in the household and to receive the covenant blessing from Yahweh.  Jacob could not bear Esau in this position of priest while he did not have the same care of love for Yahweh as he did.  For while Jacob spent time studying His word and Esau in seeking material wealth--while a skilled hunter and on pursuit of fleshly desires solely.  This unending quest for the temporary also shows Esau's disdain for the birthright that he does not see the value in it and speaks in a mocking tone in the future resurrection and is content to eat of the food prepared by Jacob.  This transfer of the birthright was not just a mere conversation.  There is much more involved in this repositioning of this birthright.  This act was full of abandonment of his responsibilities and selfishness for the narrow view of what the birthright entails.  In this case there was an oath sworn that could not be reversed nor taken lightly.  This shows how little Esau cared for the thing that Yahweh care's for.  This belittlement of all of his father's possessions, land and people that he is to care for was shifted fully to his brother in this oath.  These actions of Esau was known in the womb and here is why there is in scripture, Jacob I loved and Esau I hated said by Almighty God.  Do we ever allow our temporary situation to move us to life altering decisions--look at what Esau said, what is my birthright when, I am about to die.  Certainly Yahweh can sustain us in all things!  So if Jacob refused the food, Esau would not be able to eat?  This is a camp of many tents close together and no one else had access to food of Esau to eat?  Rather does the birthright seem like such a small thing to trade for a bowl of food?  We can see from Esau's actions and commitment to actually swear an oath that he did not see the value in the birthright to preserve it in that moment.  We have to be careful to not put away our future for a temporary present need. 
Let us look to the traits of Esau that was apart of his wicked nature that the birthright was not to fall on him.  Yahweh would not allow the lineage of Abraham and Isaac to continue in the covenants in Esau.  In his killing of innocent men, the ravishing of a woman and marriage to two idolatrous women to the shame of his father.  Isaac for his blinding love for his firstborn, accepted the bribes of Esau to allow this marriage.  This shows us why the lineage could not continue from Esau and his idolatrous brides with the covenant Yahweh has with Abraham and his generations.  This agreement caused the diminished eyesight of Isaac for he was often in the tent and not caused to be seen for the shame of Esau's behavior.  This blindness was not only natural but also spiritual. For Issac knows the doings of his son and made ready to bless him at the close of his life.  Bids him to go and hunt for him some meat that he may eat.  He instructs Esau to hunt for a clean animal for him to eat.  He warns him not to steal or bring him an animal already dead to him for his meal.  These instructions show that Isaac knows about his son's nature and overlooks it all anyway.  The date that Issac makes this request is the night before Passover which is a time when the dew of heaven is heavy and the whole world sings praises to Yahweh. The season when the storehouses of dew are unlocked.  Upon his father's request, he leaves out to find the quickest way to obtain meat.  This is where he is thwarted by the hand of Yahweh for the prey that he catches and ties up to catch another is loosed by the the devil.  This was done to delay his return and allow another plan to be executed.
We have Rebecca telling her son Jacob to enter in with the meat that she has prepared and place fur on his arms and hands to disguise himself as Esau.  Jacob does not want to trick his father for fear of being cursed instead.  Rebecca tells him that she will bear the curse if this is found out.  She places Esau's goodly clothes on Jacob to enter in to Isaac to be blessed.  These goodly clothes are the clothes that have been passed down from the garden--the clothing that Yahweh made for Adam.  Through the generations it was passed through the hands of many, Noah, Shem, Abraham and at that time Esau.  For Rebecca's distrust of his wives kept these clothes in her tent.  This is how Jacob goes in to appear before his father.  Upon the greeting of his father in the tent, Isaac hears Jacob's voice and choice of speech.  This prompts him, bid him to come closer since he knows the voice is not Esau and feels the hair on his hands and arms.  Jacob is in such fear of being found out that he can't move under his own power.  Yahweh causes the angels of Gabriel and Michael to take each arm to guide him to his father.  So when Jacob reaches Isaac and feels his arms and says the voice is of Jacob but the hands as Esau.  This was said to prove that the voice of Jacob imposes silence on those on the earth and in heaven, for even the angels of heaven are not permitted to pray until Jacob is finished speaking.  Jacob was the last person to kiss Issac on the cheek before his death.  Isaac blesses Jacob with the firstborn blessing and with all that Jacob is laden down with from his father, upon his departure sees Esau coming up to the tent of Isaac and he stood concealed in the door.  For if Esau had found him them there would have killed him.  How could this be?  Was the cries of Esau, isn't there a blessing for me too, father?  This plan that was set in place to keep the linage of Esau from going forward with the covenant that was handed down from his grandfather.  All being lead of the Holy Spirit, Rebecca, Jacob and Issac all played their part in the correct positioning for the way that Yahweh would have it all go!  There is the plans of man but the purpose of the Yahweh will prevail!  To hear this teaching again click here.

Fiveamprayer this morning we are going to take a close and Biblical look at the origins of many church practices to find and determine how and where we got off course from the original plan of the Most High!  This study will look to find the places where the devil has inserted his plan while pushing out or overlaying Yahweh's appointed times and instructions.  The evil and counterfeit plan to usurp the power, glory and authority of Almighty God, started very long ago.  
In the garden of Eden we have the sacrificial system set up for the rebellion of Adam and Eve to the perfect instruction of Adonai.  From this instituted process to account the wrong's of man at the death of the innocent animal.  A very visual reminder that their actions have resulted in death that should have been accounted to them.  In the watching of this process, satan found a way that if man could be convinced to do the same process, but in error--he would be able to steal glory away from Yahweh.  Here begins his plan to exalt himself to be like the most high--remember this declaration of the devil in Isaiah 14:14.  So here it begins how to shift man, Yahweh's crafted image to worship and revere him in error.  So there had to be a government, a throne, false worship based on his counterfeit religion established in this foul substitute to His perfect truth.  The image that the enemy chooses is the sun.  It is a strong force of nature and source of light, a ready made symbol of that which he sought to apply to himself.  This process while it took hundreds of years to complete this shift of the day of worship in the church, that Yahweh's appointed day of worship the 7th day of the week, Saturday--this shift made to Sunday the first day of the week.  A small shift that many may try to dismiss, yet what does scripture say?  Did Yahweh ever appoint a change of the His day to meet with His people? The Sun's day of worship is directly tied to sun god worship which is not worship of the Living God, Yahweh but over the years, layers of lies and the dust of deceit we arrive to our present day worship in many churches.  These which are to be of Almighty God and yet not defined according to His words at all!  You may even be surprised to find that this sun god worship on Sunday was done almost as early at Sabbath keeping worship.  Here in Job we find that he speaks of being secretly enticed or lead away from knowing that Yahweh is above, due to worship of the sun or the moon (Job 31:26-28).  Job is saying that if he were convinced to worship either the sun or moon is denial of the Creator of the Universe--the King of kings!  Wake up church!  We have been secretly enticed and lead away from the Way, the Truth and the Life!  But surely that is it, nothing else was changed?  Let us continue on further.  The golden calf worship in the wilderness by the children of Israel in Exodus 32.  Why would they have to get up early on the next day for this worship?  Their replica that they fashioned in gold was the calf that was a part of the sun god worship in Egypt.  They were worshiping the sun is why the got up early.  Now with this understanding you are not surprised at the burning anger of Moses when he returns with the instructions of Yahweh to find the people in such abject disobedience to the only God Almighty!  Where else do we find sun worship in the Bible by the pagans that surrounded the people of Israel?  We hear of the baal worship in the first half of the Bible--but who is baal?  This is a pagan god that was attributed the characteristics of the sun, moon and the stars.  The devil in ancient times was worshiped as the pagan god baal.  We have all throughout the Bible the worship of baal that kept drawing the children of Israel away from the One True God--Yahweh.  This is what happened in the showdown at Mt. Carmel of Elijah and the prophets of the pagans including baal.  1 Kings 18:21-27 21 And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word. 22 Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the Lord; but Baal's prophets are four hundred and fifty men. 23 Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: 24 And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the Lord: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken. 25 And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress it first; for ye are many; and call on the name of your gods, but put no fire under. 26 And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made. 27 And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked.  This taunt of Elijah could be in regard to the season when the sun is at it's lowest point that they though that it would go to sleep, thus they had to cry out louder to be heard or maybe on a journey and out of earshot.  Yet when the true God, Yahweh is called upon with all the altar in order and sacrifice set appropriately on the arranged wood that was thoroughly wet with water answers, for it was the appointed time for prayer/sacrifice.  Do you consider that Yahweh gave us times and days at random?  Isn't not His calendar marked for each time and date that He expects to meet with you and yet many of us either unaware or disregard and come any other time.  Well if you can meet at any time, why not His appointed times?  What benefit do you have to be a stubborn child and refuse correction?
Going back to the book of Genesis 10:8-10, 11:2-9 we have Nimrod the son of Cush who became the first great ruler after the great flood.  This great and mighty ruler was very wicked and by the hand of hasatan is a tool crafted to begin instituting sun/devil worship.  Nimrod and his wife Semiramis are the first two people deified--made as gods. At the death of Nimrod he was to be transformed into the sun for that is what Semiramis said set in motion that his soul went to the sun and that she would go to the moon to reside at her death.  As she called herself the queen of heaven and was worshiped by the people in that fashion.  She also has a son that she claims is the reborn Nimrod and named him Tammuz who has been worshiped by the many pagans and his symbol is the 't', the first letter of his name.  There were human sacrifices offered to him on that 't' which would later be known as the cross.  Since there was a huge focus on sun god worship, people noticed in December around the 21 that the sun would be at it's lowest point, and did not begin to rise again until the 25.  This day became known as the birthday of the sun and celebrated.  So how does this get inserted into our church practices?  Not knowing the day of Christ's birth it was determined by man's intellect that since there is not a specific day given, why not choose a day that many already observe and consider special for the birth of the sun or Tammuz.  Over time under the authority of the Catholic church, there was a special Mass that was done on that day which was Christ's Mass.  Later followed with the decorating of a tree which represented the continuing life of Nimrod who ascended into the sun and reborn in Tammuz.  
Where else was their a pagan mix up or devilish takeover in church practices?  In the spring we have the crucifixion and resurrection of our Messiah Yeshua.  On the pagan calendar this is the time of the moon festival.  Remember the wife of Nimrod, Semiramis who likened herself to a moon god and called herself the queen of heaven?  We have cakes being made for her that had a 't' on them.  These were renamed, hot cross buns by the church (Jeremiah 7:16-18).  The 40 days of weeping for Tammuz was later called Lent that would end on Easter Sunday (Ezekiel 8:12-18)  The goddess Ishtar or Easter was known to be the goddess of reproduction and new life tied to springtime.  Those who worshiped her would get up very early on Sunday as the sun was rising to worship, here enters the symbols of eggs and rabbits tied to fertility and reproduction.  We have all seen Easter baskets that are certainly linked to these symbols!  Wake up church, the birth of Christ assigned by men on the same day of a pagan god the people had been worshiping for centuries; the Passion of the Christ surrounded by eggs, rabbits, hot cross buns and early sunrise services;  the 40 days of weeping for the death of a pagan god switched to Lent???
So let's look to Jeremiah, who speaks of correction to the people to cease worship to the 'queen of heaven' and they refused (Jeremiah 44).  Fiveamprayer let us not seek to continue in the counterfeit when the Truth has been revealed unto us!  Our innocence and ignorance is now over!  Return to the truth without the error.  Walk in all the truth you have received!  He is taking the scales off of our eyes and hearing is being opened to come back to the original, holy and perfect ways of the Eternal One, Yahweh!  We have accepted and been entangled in the lies and traditions that have been handed down, years over years!  This suprising revelation of truth is needed to fully return to the truth. That is what Yahweh is seeking for His people to return to Him!  The time is coming that you will have to make changes for the truth that you have received.  Time is out for making deathly concessions for traditions over honor to He who is True!  We have spent too much time in man-pleasing when he has no authority over you!  We have in Ezekiel 20:12-20 gives the designation of the pagan sun god worshipers selected the first day of the week to for their time of worship.  And those following Yahweh's design are observing the 7th day Sabbath as instituted from the beginning of the world.  To hear the weekend meditation again click here.

Torah Portion--Shabbat Chazon/Shabbat Of Isaiah's Vision & Chukah/Decree

Deuteronomy 1:1-3:22; Isaiah 1:1-27; Hebrews 4-6

We are walking in today:  Torah Portion--Shabbat Chazon/Shabbat Of Isaiah's Vision & Chukah/Decree

Witness see My ways throughout the Bible:  H7200 ra'ah look at, to percieve, look after, watch, search, gaze at
H1870 derek  course, path, course of life, moral character
2 Kings 17:13; 2 Chronicles 7:14; Job 31:4; Song of Solomon 3:2; Isaiah 58:2

This morning we begin our study of Deuteronomy for this Torah reading cycle.  This is the countdown to the time that Moses will lie with his fathers or when he will die.  He takes this time at the close of his life to remind and bring to remembrance that which they have learned in the wilderness.  That time that Yahweh had them set apart as a time of His instruction due to disobedience of entering the land in the previous generation.  Why would he need to remind and cause them the remember?  They have been in the wilderness with him and have seen those who were stricken down due to rebellion and other poor choices.  As we see later on in the other books in the history of Israel, without leaders that follow closely to Yahweh, the people will wander into and embrace paganism.  Moses knows that a time will come.  He has been mentoring Joshua to take his place and directing him on leadership while setting examples of what to do in various situations.  So let's fast forward to the children of Israel to the first chapter of Isaiah.
The first few verses in this chapter shows that Moses was right that the people could and would forget Yahweh their Elohim.  Isaiah 1:2-3 2 “Hear, heaven! Listen, earth! For Adonai is speaking. “I raised and brought up children, but they rebelled against me. 3 An ox knows its owner and a donkey its master’s stall, but Isra’el does not know, my people do not reflect.  This comparison of the working animal knowing it's owner or the stall of it's owner, shows a closeness in relationship and daily access to come into knowing and yet Israel His people do not know Him!  Why would people need to be reminded?  Two reasons the importance of the knowledge--remember the perishing from lack of knowledge?  The other reason is the weight of the information.  As a child the things that were most important were repeated over and over again--things of little import were not drilled into our minds, brought up in various settings like walking along the road, when you rise up or when you lay down. 
Preceding through the next verses we find that in Israel's rebellion and abandoning Yahweh they have become sick in their whole bodies.  That there are bandages and balm everywhere for the maladies they are suffering.  What is attacking or causing such a woeful state?  Isaiah 1:5 “Where should I strike you next, as you persist in rebelling? The whole head is sick, the whole heart diseased.  What does the Bible say that Yahweh is asking where, He should strike them next?  Isaiah 1:7-8 7“Your land is desolate, your cities are burned to the ground; foreigners devour your land in your presence; it’s as desolate as if overwhelmed by floods. 8 The daughter of Tziyon is left like a shack in a vineyard, like a shed in a cucumber field, like a city under siege.”  So we have that the people were so stricken that there was no health to be found in them.  The land was burned and the foreigners were eating of it's produce--this is a desolate and overwhelmed land by enemies.  Now the time that was spent and focused on the people's recall of His instructions that they would remember and even rehearse the book of the law of Moses day and night (Joshua 1:8).  So how could these people, the children of Israel end up in this state?  Deuteronomy 28:14-22 14 And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them. 15 But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee: 16 Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field. 17 Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store. 18 Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. 19 Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be when thou goest out. 20 The Lord shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me. 21 The Lord shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest to possess it. 22 The Lord shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with the sword, and with blasting, and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.
This sounds like the state of the children of Israel in this first chapter of Isaiah. illness in their bodies and desolation of the land, all at the hands of Yahweh.  All stemming from the people not walking in the instructions of their Elohim, this is the result--curses, in the city and the field, their basket and store.  Until this time when reading the Bible with a Hebraic mindset we find that the upper portion of Deutronomy 28 contains all of the blessings, which many of us have confessed and repeated to others everywhere we go.  Upon closer review of the whole chapter the blessings are for those who life their lives according to His direction.  The curses arise in our disobedience.  Look again at the people in Isaiah, this is not describing people living a blessed experience.  Why does Adonai all this to happen?  The better question is why did the people allow this to happen.  Their actions are tied to an result, but which actions will you choose?  Will you allow those around you to walk in disobedience or remind them what Almighty God has taught and rehearsed to your ancestors and generations?  As we continue reading that the people were setting new feast days or combining neighboring pagan practices with what was to be pure worship before the holy Yahweh.  Because of His wearied response this was not a one instance, this was in repetition of their error and arrogance that they could offer any worship and that He would accept it.  The plea of correction to return the people from their shame from pagan practices in verse 15 let's them know that He is turning His ear from their prayers but if they would put evil away and to learn His good and right way from before.  This is a terrible thing to consider that they had gone so far from what which is true, they have to learn it all over again.  This is the state of many of us before we came to the Torah.  We did not know, understand or regard His instructions as worthwhile or beneficial to our lives now.  The more we study, we find much of what has be pushed aside for great information of the time is no longer valid, yet we have so many problems.  For His heart is for His chosen and still has hand out stretched for them to return and correct their ways and walk in His principles.  That in washing us in our return to Him in our hearts and actions we are able to eat the good of the land. 
This portion deals with the preparation of the close of Moses' life and then the introduction to one of the major prophets and the condition of the people in each book is at opposite ends of the spectrum.  This is the danger in not teaching wisdom from one generation to the next.  If there is no record of the measure of defining elements of a good person how to determine which attributes are to be prized?  We have in Isaiah a great people who if left to their own devices can live in such a way to be absolutely foreign to the one who began their lineage, Abraham.  Just take a look around and think of your grandparents would they be shocked, appalled, ashamed, or upset at the state of the world today?!  When the instruction is not passed down much can be suffered by those without direction and the state of the society and land diminished.  To hear this mornings portion click here.

We are walking in today:  The Shofar Of Yahweh

Witness hear My voice throughout the Bible: H8085 shama` listen, hear, obey, listen or give heed to, grant a request & H6963  qowl sound of instrument, sound of voice or proclamation
Genesis 3:10; Deuteronomy 18:16; Isaiah 28:23; Daniel 10:9; John 5:36-38, 10:16; Revelations 3:20

The shofar is the horn that was used to alert the children of Israel and in the worship of Yahweh.  We have throughout scripture, the shofar in major Bible scenes, the ram caught by the horns in the thicket on the mountain with Abraham and Isaac; the blast that was sounded when the mountain was covered with clouds and thunder before Moses goes up to receive the Torah; with Joshua and the people circling Jericho and the walls coming down.  We have to see that what Yahweh does is with sound.  He spoke, He said and sounded in order to create and protect His people Israel.  The sounds that He releases are with power and distinction, the one used most often in the earth is the shofar.  This is the only instrument that is used by both heaven and earth.  For in some cases the messengers will sound the shofar as well.  When going out to war, the shofar was sounded--Gideon and troop sounded the shofar that released the sword of the Lord against the enemy.  This sounding of the shofar was used to gather the people together; to distribute messages; to crown the new king.  The most notable use of the shofar is for the priests to go before the warriors in battle with the sounding of the shofar.  This has to be noted, to as we are not fighting battle in the natural but in the spirit!  This we must understand, that this sound going forth pierces through the enemy and establishes Yahweh's intention.  In the worship in the temple, the shofar was used in praise.  We are told, Psalm 98:6 (CJB) With trumpets and the sound of the shofar, shout for joy before the king, Adonai!  This is for a celebration of the greatness of our King of kings!  The shofar blast is also associated with those who are being woken up to return to the truth.  This return from worldly ways to the original directions of Yahweh is seen in the blast of the shofar in Daniel 12:2 (CJB) Many of those sleeping in the dust of the earth will awaken, some to everlasting life and some to everlasting shame and abhorrence. The root or the word shofar means to beautify which can be seen as beautification of our ways when we return to Elohim and His ways!

As we have come to remember and return to the feast days and appointed times of Yahweh we find that the sounding of the shofar was also instructed.  On the new moon, which begins the Hebrew months and certainly on the feast of Trumpets when shofar and trumpets are blown, for this set apart time.  As we continue to read our Bibles we find in the last half the shofar blast of Yahweh during a series of judgements. Found in scripture in throughout the book of Revelation.
There are several sounds that the shofar makes:
-Tekiah is one long unbroken sound that extends for several beats of musical measure.  This announces Yahweh's intent and establishes righteous boundaries in an area and the place He is to occupy.
-Shevarim contains several short or breaking sounds.  Which announces His intent to breakthrough barriers and shatter resistance to His will.
-Tekiah Gdolah the Great Tekiah is a single sound unbroken and long, played for several musical measures.  Due to the commanding tone is used to announce or begin a series of shofar sounds or the conclusion of a series of sounds.  This declares the extension of Yahweh's glory and domain.
Simply the shofar is a horn made of undomesticated animal that is prepared and blown to release a specific sound.  The animals most often used are the ram.  Ram shofars can be up to 30 inches in length and are often with a single curve in them.  The Kudu shofar or Yememite shofar is the longer twisted or curved horn.  Due to it's size various octaves can be reached when sounding.  The Gemsbok shofar is a straight horn with ridges and does not have any curves in it.  Made from the Gemsbok antelope. 
Take some time to look these scriptures for yourself.  Make a note that the word translated as trumpet is often times a shofar.  Just as the soldiers are directed by the horn blast we too must heed the shofar of Yahweh in directing us to where His intentions and dominion resides!

The 153 Fish Are The Sons Of God

Ezekiel 47; John 21:3-14; Jeremiah 16:16; Romans 11:25, 16:25; Genesis 35:22-26; 1 Kings 11:26-40;  2 Samuel 18, 19:41, 20:22, 20:1; 1 King 11:35; Nehemiah 1:2-3; Luke 3:1; 2 Samuel 7:11-17; John 1:1; Ezekiel 44:22-23; Jeremiah 31:31-33; Hebrews 8:8-11; Matthew 13:47-48; Isaiah 52:10, 62:8; Hosea 1:10

We are walking in today:  The 153 Fish Are The Sons Of God

Witness entangled throughout the Bible:  H943 buwk to perplex, confuse, be confused or involve oneself in evil
Exodus 14:1-3; Galatians 5:1; 2 Peter 2:20

This morning we are talking about the parable of the 153 fish in John chapter 21.  Let's start with some key points to remember before getting started:
--we do not support British Israelism.
--we do not support replacement theology
--the Torah is the word of Yahweh and at the time of Yeshua was focused on the first five books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy
In scripture we have the house of Jacob which is also the house of Israel which contains these sons of Israel the 10 1/2 northern tribes:  Rueben, Simeon, Issachar, Zebulun, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher, Manasseh, Ephraim and 1/2 tribe of Levi.  This group is also called Ephraim for they are the largest number of these tribes.  The house of Judah consist of Judah, Benjamin and the 1/2 tribe of Levi known as Judah, the largest in number is the southern kingdom.
All the 12 tribes called the house of Jacob for all had received land according to their inheritance that Yahweh gives to each tribe.  During the rule of King David, Judah was Manaseh's main rival. This division into the northern and southern kingdoms was fully divided under the rule of Rehobam.  These two kingdoms started to split with Absalom's rebellion and continued in difficulty until finally split after the death of Solomon.  In 722 B.C. the northern kingdom/Israel/Ephraim, when the people were dispersed after exile into Africa, Spain, Europe and Americas.  The southern tribes were exiled and in Nehemiah some of them returned to rebuild Jerusalem, this is the house of Judah.  When exiled they were sent to Assyria and Babylon for a time and then they returned.  The everlasting covenant that Yahweh made with the House of David is the unified kingdom under his rule which is both the northern and southern kingdoms restored.
Looking to John 21 we have Simon Peter goes out to fish with 6 other disciples.  As we looked at Hebrew idioms last week we can see how much of scripture is opened up to us with this Hebraic understanding.  Fishing is an idiom for looking for the harvesting of the Holy Spirit into the kingdom of God.  At night is an idiom for going out without the Torah, the root word which is or means light.  There being 7 disciples in the boat, stands for the 7 laws given to Noah after the flood, many Jews believed that those in the nations were to follow those laws but they were only chosen to be apart of Israel if they became Jews.  The sea is an idiom of people groupings and groups of people.  In verse 4 we have Yeshua standing on the shore but was not recognized by them--this shows that many today fail to recognize Yeshua and the covenant of Moses are the same Word of God!  This is the reunification of the whole house of Israel, both Ephraim and Judah. They had been out all night and had caught nothing, yet at His instruction that they cast the net on the right side.  The right hand of Yahweh is an idiom of His power and authority.  That we have the right side here in the text instead of cast on the other side of the boat is something the Hebraic mind would have grasped this is power and authority of Yahweh.  This also shows us that the great abundance we expect is only in walking in obedience to the Torah.  That is how we move from lack and decrease to gain and increase!  It is John who was a Levite who recognizes Yeshua on the beach and Peter who wraps himself in his tallit or prayer shawl to jump into the sea.  Here John and Peter are two witnesses as in the books of Daniel and Revelation.  Do you think to ask why put on your prayer shawl to jump into the sea?  The tallit represents the Holy Spirit and the sea is groups of people.  This is a shadow of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit into all people.  To hear more of this awesome teaching click here.

8th Commandment Closeout/Torah: Law or Grace, Kingdom Principles of Kingdom Living, chapter 5

Acts 21:20, 2:38; Exodus 20:8; Hebrews 13:8; Mark 2:27; Genesis 22:17; Acts 15:12-21; Leviticus 12:4; Deuteronomy 12:23; Hebrews 10:29

We are walking in today:  8th Commandment Closeout/Torah: Law or Grace, Kingdom Principles of Kingdom Living, chapter 5

Witness root throughout the Bible: H8328 sheresh a root (literally or figuratively):—synonymous to bottom, deep, heel, as in the root core and essence of a person, place or thing.
Isaiah 11:1; Jeremiah 17:8; Ezekiel 17:6, 31:7; Hosea 14:5; Proverbs 12:3; Daniel 4:20, 4:23; Matthew 13:6, 15:17 

As we finished up the 8th commandment on Friday, we wanted to look over Exodus 20:13  Thou shall not steal.  There are principles contained within that command that gives a bigger picture--than someone breaking your door down to take your TV.  This commandment includes fair treatment of employees and agreed time and amount of wages.  It all really goes to the heart of the person, what is your intention?  Are you seeking gain to the damage of another?  Are you not trusting in His provision for yourself?  We get into a lot to trouble comparing when we don't have the full story.  But mainly we have to know that we are not to know everything the only one with that charge is Yahweh!  Trust that He knows best and has all of your provision ready from the foundations of the world.  He is not in a panic when a need or situation comes up--that is us.  When you fully shift and remain in that position of trust you begin to look for how He will take care of that situation.  We should never seek to take from others what we don't think we have.  The King of kings takes great care of all of His citizens and royal family--His reputation is banked on it!  So relax and listen to His direction, trust and know that He can never lie.  Only He can work all things together for our good!
Fiveamprayer, in starting this chapter we find those who are zealous for the Torah, Yahweh's teaching and instruction.  Acts 21:20 (AMP) And upon hearing it, they adored and exalted and praised and thanked God. And they said to [Paul], You see, brother, how many thousands of believers there are among the Jews, and all of them are enthusiastic upholders of the [Mosaic] Law.  The words used in the Amplified Bible says that they adored, exalted, praised and thanked Yahweh, that there were believers among the Jews and all enthusiastic upholders of the Mosaic Law.  At that time the Mosaic law or the law of Moses is the commandments that he received on mount Sinai.  Remember that the book of Acts is in the second portion of the Bible and here we have those who are enthusiastic upholders of Moses' law?  Well what does it say in the King James version? And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord, and said unto him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are which believe; and they are all zealous of the law.  This text exclaims that when they heard it glorified the LORD, how many thousands of Jews there are which believe and are all zealous of the law.  We find in the book of Numbers a charge of another that was listed as zealous for his God, Yahweh that he was moved to action for the disobedience that was operating in the camp.  This is a passion of the things of Adonai that His word is not seen as an option.  That saw the beginning of our undoing that we see it as an option that we can select at our leisure.  It is by the leading of the Holy Spirit that we are returned to the Torah.  We have in Yeshua's direction an attribute of the Holy Spirit--John 16:13 (KJV) 13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.  Fiveamprayer we are being lead to all truth, Psalm 119:142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth.  We have from King David that His law is truth!  This is the truth that Yeshua is speaking of in speaking of the Holy Spirit being sent after His return to heaven.  As you look at how you ended up in this place, it was lead by the Holy Spirit!  So many of us were faithful church attendees and studied our Bibles, still felt that there is still more!  That this unrest will continue until the time that He comes to draw you back home to His instructions.  We were given His directions for our maximum benefit for our lives.  That in our observing the Sabbath, the day He set aside for us, restores us.  Fiveamprayer, we have received what He appointed for us to have!  This is not an argument not to study or worship any other day of the week besides Saturday.  What it is that we have a set apart, set aside, particular day for us at His design from the first 7 days of creation.  There is peace, rest that we find in obedience of His principles.  As we continue in this walk, we find that the Torah is keeping us, that we are not keeping the Torah--we get to observe the Torah!  We keep applying each principle as we learn and grow--for He is drawing us to Him.  There is not an expectation to shift tomorrow and walk in all 613 commandments!  We are to walk in what the Spirit of Truth leads us to.  As time goes on we, will keep adding principles and receiving understanding of His intentions and care already waiting for us.  The sabbath is the day set apart of us, once we observe it we find restoration and extension of our lives for our obedience to the great benefit that He has provided for us!  
As we look again at the commandments of the Most High God, Yahweh we see that many of the rules that we uphold come from the the principles from the foundations of the world.  As time has passed there were changes made--things added and omitted over the generations.  Now is the time that we return to the original!  Finding what was already given to us and living in the life that Yahweh has been handing us, won't we take hold of what is purposed for us?  In keeping the times appointed for us we find that time will be subject to us!  For so long we have been subject to time.  We look to the walk of Yeshua at His first coming and find that all of His actions are true and accurate to the Torah, the teaching and instructions that are explained in the first half of the Bible.  In every principle, that the Holy Spirit revels to you, walk in that portion as time goes on there will be another that will show up and your walk will change and as you look back you find that you have walked in more and more of the principles of Yahweh.  So why do we have to do these things?  This is not a punishment, it is freedom, liberty and rest.  The steps that are being taken will lead you to no longer desiring the things that are outside His principles!  To hear this teaching again click here. https://www.freeconferencecallhd.com/playback.html?n=RvxYy/jsxyz

Fiveamprayer we have this morning for our weekend meditation--The Remnant or the 144,000 singing the Song of Moses and the Song Of  The Lamb.  This can be new for many of us to find out about these songs.  What is going on in this time and season that this comes before us now?  Let's first look to the Song of Moses.  We find this in the book of Deuteronomy 32, the song that Moses sings to the children of Israel before his death and they enter the promised land lead by Joshua.  This song was a warning to the Israelites to keep all that they had learned in the wilderness.  Moses knew that at his death that they would fall deeply into idolatry.  This song also has elements that speaks to us now in the latter days.  For we too will have our own exodus experience to leave out of the bondage of pharaoh (which is a system like Babylon, not necessarily a ruler) that we are to be leave out from.  
The planning and preparation that elite military groups undertake are the same as those who have been selected and chosen by Yahweh for His army of soldiers that will fight, stand in all of the training and strategies they have been taught.  It is the fine tuning and precision of tasks and actions that brings them to the forefront.  Yahweh will and has many who will go forth in leading the way back to Him fully from the lies the were inherited by our forefathers.  This is the time that His marvelous light is scattering all darkness--the truth is now fully available to be seen and known.  Those that are charged with this task are called by many names, the remnant, the Son of Man and the 144,000.  When we look to Revelation 14:3 that is the number of people that are singing the Song of the Lamb.  If we only look to scripture with the Greek mindset we will only expect to see that actual number out of the whole earth 144,000 singing this song.  We have that 12,000 came from each of the twelve tribes, yet with the people being scattered due to the idolarty they subjected themselves to--we would not be able to determine which tribes are from where.  This scattering that was done at His hand in response to rebellion.  Now in this time He begins the ingatering of the people from all the places that they were scattered.  Only Yahweh knows who is of which of the tribes at this time.  
The Song of the Lamb is found in Revelation 15 that the remnant were given to sing alone.  This is a song that was not sung before.  These people are the ones who know the Torah, Yahweh's teaching and instruction and the testimony of Yeshua on their lips.  This will be the first and only generation that will sing both the Song of Moses and the Song of the Lamb.  These are the elite trained soldiers of Yahweh that were prepared for this time and season at His appointed time.  This gives another picture to see that Yahweh is one with Yeshua as we are also to be one, or in Hebrew echad!  The Bible is one book that should have never had divisions of the old and new--His word is one!  This is the time that all things are being restored and in their proper places at His perfect design and timing.  To hear this teaching again click here.

Torah Portion Matot/Tribes & Masei/Journeys

Numbers 30:2-36:13; Jeremiah 2:4-28, 4:1-2; Hebrews 1-3

We are walking in today:  Torah Portion Matot/Tribes & Masei/Journeys

Witness move camp & journey throughout the Bible:  Exodus 14:19; Numbers 4:15,10:2; Deuteronomy 23:15; Numbers 33:2, 33:8; Judges 18:5-6; Ezra 8:21

This morning we are looking to the children of Israel that are making ready to go into the promised land.  This is the next generation that is going to cross over, only Caleb and Joshua were from the previous generation, to possess the land.  One of the assignments that Yahweh gave to the people was to take His vengeance against the Midianites (that we had last week's portion) who were luring the men of Israel by the Midianite women.  This act of disobedience led to a plague that was quenched by the zealous action as of Phineas.   This was at the direction of Baalam who was not able to curse the people of Israel with his words but found other methods to place stumbling blocks before them.  For this battle, each tribe was to send forth soldiers to fight in this battle, that every male was to be slain which included the five kings of Midian.  Upon the Israelites returning from war, the heads of the thousands and hundreds that they have the total count that went out to war.  We can see here that the protection of the hand of Yahweh upon the people when being used as His tool of vengeance for evil deeds done against His chosen.  With no lives lost, the people were not diminished in number at all.  The spoils of war were livestock, precious metals, jewels and women.  Moses had to direct them to only save the women that had never knew a man.  Remember the stumbling that these women caused in the luring to pagan practices and other unholiness?  This is a great lesson for us to totally remove those stumbling blocks that we have tripped over and no longer permit them at any stage of our lives.  Why tempt yourselves with a previous downfall?  Why not be obedient to His directions at all times?  Once the correction comes, take and make that correction for your life and not just for a moment.  All of those who went to war, the spoils and the captives were to remain outside the camp until purified--keeping all contamination from entering the general assembly.  The soldiers also made atonement for their return in their full number to the camp.  All of the increase from this battle was given a portion to Yahweh and the priests and then divided among the people.  This battle in Midian gives a pattern that the children of Israel could follow when taking possession of the land of Canaan, leaving no one alive that would draw them away from Yahweh's good and right way.  That they would have peace on all sides and not be pulled in or blend what they were already doing in the land from the instructions that they received and practiced in the wilderness.
In the 33rd chapter of Numbers we find a review of all of the stops of the children of Israel as they went throughout the wilderness.  There is a total of 42 that each have meaning giving revelation of who Yahweh is as well as what resides in the children of Israel as well.  This character reveal of the people allows them to see what should have been learned for they will need these completed lessons in the promised land.  Fiveamprayer remember that which we learn is not just for the present lesson but is also for our moving foward.  The original generation that was brought out of Egypt all died in the wilderness save Joshua and Caleb.  The display of the mighty arm of Yahweh that delivered them out was to be a comfort for the beginning the close  of their wanderings.  Through the mouth of Moses, the people were directed to drive out all of the people who inhabited the land, destroy all of the pictures, destroy the molten images and casting down every high place used for pagan worship.  If this was not done in totality the people would experience many difficulties at the hands of their disobedience for if any were allowed to remain would work against them--leaving room for attack from the inside of the people themselves.  They are a holy people, set forth by Yahweh, the holy God and they were to be His holy people.  They were not to have any dealings with the profane and thus making them unholy.
We find in these two portions we must be mindful of those thing that would attempt to tempt us.  Utterly remove those things that caused stumbling before or prevent our stumbling.  How do we know, we have His directions for our lives that when accurately followed will give us that we are to avoid and remove from our presence.  We have to understand that His sight is big picture and long distance, He knows what results in even the small disobedience will eventually yield full grown rebellion.  Our sight is often not that far down the road, this limited sight and understanding can make room of the 'just this once' mindset that is easily the undoing of many.  When we seek to obey and follow all of His directions we find that in His full awareness we are able to expect and receive all that His word promises!  So the question becomes in whom do you rely?  Your own sight or His directions?  To hear this again click here.

The Building Blocks Of Creation/Get On Your Level, Speak On Your Level

Genesis 1:1; John 1:1, 1:14-15; Colossians 1:16-17; Psalm 78:1-8; Zephaniah 3:9; Revelation 5:4-5; Matthew 9:20-22; Malachi 4:2; Luke 2:21; Genesis 17:12; Luke 2:24; Deuteronomy 5:4-6; Luke 2:39-40, 2:41-43; Leviticus 12:1-8; 1 Corinthians 3:16; Deuteronomy 16:1-8; Matthew 16:19, 6:22-23, 6:1-3; Deuteronomy 15:10; Exodus 22:22; John 21:5; Joshua 1:8; Deuteronomy 32:44-47

We are walking in today:  The Building Blocks Of Creation/Get On Your Level, Speak On Your Level

Witness Adonai's greatness in the storm throughout the Bible--Job 38

The 22 letters of the Hebrew alef beit are the building blocks of life.  The words that brought forth light, organized the stars, separated the land from the water, created plants and animals and made man.  We find that with translation from the original we loose these building blocks, also Hebrew is read from right to left.  As English speakers we read the opposite.  Hebraically the language will focus on verbs and actions--the doing.  Yet in the English/western mindset is focused on the nouns or subject--the who or what.  The language is focused on the action so much that you can find several verbs in the sentence so that it will be abundantly clear that action is taking place--this is not a distant observation but an upclose review that leads to motion. 
The number 7 speaks of completion and fullness seen throughout scripture. The groupings of the number 7 can be found throughout the whole Bible.  Looking to the first seven words we find that in the fourth word spelled with an alef and tav pronounced as et these are the first and the last letters of the alef beit.  This is how all the things in the earth came into being from the word of Yahweh spoken in the beginning.  The first creation is with the Hebrew letters and then makes everything in the universe for they are the building blocks.  This is where the Torah comes from--His very word itself!
A tradition of the ancient sages is that if the Hebrew letters are not spoken that the world itself would cease to be for the letters hold, form and shape the entire world together.  The first seven words tells us that only Yahweh can create, the second word only used in relationship with Him.  Everyone else can only mold or form from what He created.  Fiveamprayer let us be mindful that we must be cautious of the words that we write and speak for that is how we are judged!  Without proper understanding of the culture and language of Hebrew such as idioms the meaning can be lost or misunderstood.  Idioms are focused on the culture and accepted understanding of the meaning behind the actual words.

We have to return to the beginning to understand the second portion of the Bible.  Only in untying the first portion can His word be fully understood.  Fiveamprayer, 85% of the 'new testament' came from the 'old'.  Now is the time to go back to the beginning for understanding of the entirety of His word!  How do we see and know Yeshua, the word made flesh if we can not clearly understand the word of Yahweh?  In the beginning was the word, and the word was Yahweh and with Yahweh and became flesh and dwelt among men--could the Torah being be something unrecognizable to Yeshua in the flesh?  They are one in the same!  He could never divide Himself nor speak against Himself.  That is not a kingly trait!  Let us stop putting our faults on He who is perfect and eternal!  This great light, the Torah, or in Hebrew or was from the beginning.  Remember that His burden is easy and yoke is light?!  We miss too much and are not able to fully relate to our Jewish Messiah, a rabbi and Hebrew speaking man who came to walk among us!  He is the word/Torah made flesh!  Do you know that the Torah scrolls have 39 lines written across that the letters are to be written on?  He was given 39 stripes could stripes be lines that His word is written on--since He is the word made flesh?  The Torah is His teaching and instruction for our lives!  This isn't hard nor difficult but we have to get out of the watered down, spoon fed word that no longer sustains us.  We can not longer be full grown adults still seeking nutrition from milk alone.  To persist in this milk only diet leaves us undernourished and lacking vital nutrients!  It is time to go to a higher level from milk to meat.  This is not to give us too much too soon.  Simply as you would a child cut the meat into small pieces and discuss with others for understanding.  We are to learn for ourselves, but not by ourselves!  It is only study that keeps us form being misled or pumped up on air that only leaves us deflated.  Come on up to the higher level!  The level that will not compromise nor accept sugar coated words over the actual truth.  Remember that everything in the 'new' originates in the 'old'!
We see that Mary in Luke 2 gave an offering for her sin.  This was after giving birth, this let's us know that she is not equal with Yeshua!  She is honored for being the incubator but is never to be sought with prayers as if Yahweh Himself!  Time out for fluffy, empty words to feed you or your children with!  We are now to dine on the meat of His word!  He will reveal the meaning to us as we seek in Him in prayer and steadfast study.  We are not moving forward, walking in foolishness!  We find in study that we are to observe His commands all of our lives!  There is not expiration date on His word!  All that the king speaks is without fail or reduction, even over time.  Nothing that Yahweh has spoken is diminished--we may have a reduced understanding but His word is intact and in it's entirety!  As we look to the second half of the Bible, we find that Yeshua kept all of the feasts and He now resides in us.  Thus we too must observe the directions of Yahweh!  It is time to cease the passing of the baton of half truths--they only weaken our families and halt our progression.
We have to fully see how language contributes to our culture.  Let's look at the English language spoken in the US and in England.  They are both called by the same name but not clearly understood by the opposite nation.  So we can find that things that have many similarities are not always equal in meaning.  Then how much confusion can result in differing languages, one focused on action and the other on the subject of the sentence?  The directions of the language and then add in years of others adding or subtracting based on understanding or lack there of and now we feel that with our increased intellect we can jump in and read any scripture without study or witnesses found in the same text.  Could it possibly be that we have only half of the picture?  At best be have half, most likely we have a smaller portion that we will have to study to find what was left off intentionally or omitted by mistake.  With many people fleeing the country of England to come to the new world, America was one vote shy of Hebrew being the national language.  The understanding of idioms will shed light on the culture and understanding of common themes.  This can be a historical development over time in the speech of a culture.  When viewed void of that culture and common theme will lead to only surface understanding that can easily be incorrect.  We can not take our 21 century western understanding and apply this to the Hebraic idioms found throughout the scriptures.  The levels of understanding scripture are: peshat, the literal simple meaning; remez to refer back or hint; drash, the study and discussion and the sod the deeper, secret things.  This is how the Hebraic mind views scripture.  Take the woman with the issue of blood who reaches out to touch Yeshua and received healing.  When Yeshua looks about to find out who touched Him, the woman comes forward and says it was she and His reply that her faith has made her whole.  The better translation of faith in Hebrew would be obedience.  What what she obedient to?  Looking back to the first portion on the Bible we find that the Son of righteousness would have healing in His wings.  So that is the start we have the who, but what about the wings.  The prayer shawls or talilt that Jewish men wore in those days was called wings and the four corners have the tzizit that look similar to tassels but are seven threads of white and one of blue that are tied in 5 knots for the Torah, the spaces between for the four letters YHVH which all adds up to 613 in the numerical assignment of the letters.  So her obedience to reach out to the 613 principles resulted in her healing.  This she would only know in studying His entire word.  The same charge we have been given for His word to operate in our lives!  Fiveamprayer we have to move from confession, only devoid of action.  We all want to see the action yet we are slow to get into motion!  This woman got her healing in reaching back or remez that allowed her to reach forward into healing.  When questioned by Yeshua she is able to declare her obedience and here we have a short discussion.  We have been called to teach beyond our household, this study and learning is not just for you and yours.  We must be prepared and go out--why wait until the battle is at our door step to push back the line of those that are attacking us?  With renewed minds we go forth and stand on all the truth!  Only His marvelous light will back up darkness--it can no longer remain in the brilliance of pure light of the Torah!  We have got to wake up before it is too late, please wake up!!  We have a purpose and set time to fulfill it!  When we clear out all of those idols from our lives, then we an really begin to understand Torah.  For when we apply His directions properly we can permit health in our obedience not forbid health in our disobedience!  This is the accurate understanding of binding/forbid or loosing/permit.  Now is the time to show yourselves approved, properly dividing the word!  Return to the original for studying to cut out the fluff and confusion!  To hear this teaching again click here.

Yahweh's Kingdom Established Upon The Earth

Genesis 1; Psalm 24:1; Matthew 6:9; Genesis 3:7-19, 3:23-24, 3:21; Matthew 5:48; Genesis 2:17; Romans 5:12, 5:17-18; 1 Corinthians 15:45-47; Genesis 12:1-3, 17:1-9, 17:21; Galatians 3:26-29; Luke 4:5-8; Exodus 20:11; Hebrews 4:4-9; Numbers 14:34; 2 Peter 3:8-9; Matthew 4:17; Mark 1:14; Matthew 13:24-52; John 15:1-8; 5:16; Matthew 7:16-21, 25:13-30; Psalm 78:2-3; Luke 22:25-30; Acts 1:6-8; Luke 17:21; John 15:16; 2 Corinthians 5:20; Matthew 10:32-39; Luke 22:28-30; Matthew 19:27-29; Revelation 5:9, 20:4-6; Isaiah 9:6-7, 11:1-9; Matthew 7:21-23, 25:31-46; John 6:44; Psalm 23:1; Matthew 6:24-34; Galatians 3:29; Deuteronomy 10:10-12; Psalm 19:7-12; Malachi 3:6; Hebrew 13:8; Esther 8:8; Micah 4:1-7; Zechariah 4:16; Isaiah 66:18-20, 24:1-6; Joel 2:32, 3:16, 3:21; Jeremiah 31:31-34; Isaiah 65:16-25, 35:1-10

We are walking in today:  Yahweh's Kingdom Established Upon The Earth

Witness tribulation throughout the Bible:  H6887 tsarar to bind, be narrow, be in distress, make narrow, cause distress, besiege, be straitened, be bound
Deuteronomy 4:29-31; Judges 10:14; 1 Samuel 26:24; Matthew 24:29; John 16:33; Romans 5:3; 2 Corinthians 7:4; Ephesians 3:13; Revelation 1:9, 2:9-10, 2:22, 7:14



Fiveamprayer we have to look at Yahweh's word with a Hebraic mindset, in regards to His Kingdom.  This is not a feeling or an assembly such as a church!  This is an actual dominion that the King has over specific lands.  Growing up in America we will not easily understand kingdom since we are a government that was built on rebellion to the kingdom of England.  We are in an evolution of the misunderstanding that man's ideas are better than the Original who spoke and it was!  We have to look to scripture to see what the word has to say about this!
In the prayer that Yeshua taught to the disciples that the pattern in the earth is what is reflected from heaven.  Matthew 6:9-10 (KJV) 9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.  Thy kingdom come from this scripture lets us know that this is not a spiritual place but an actual physical place.  Why would physical people not need a physical place that our Savior would give us to be the pattern here on the earth?  As was read in it's entirety this morning, Genesis 1.  The beginning begun by His word that set all things in order, the evening, the morning of the days; the water separated from the land; stars, sun and moon; the creations of plants and animals; crafting of mankind.  We are what He crafted by His hands to be His image to be fruitful and multiply.  What Adam received in the garden was the perfect government of Yahweh, His kingdom, that he was to be an ambassador.  The yielding of Adam to the false government of hasatan was an act of treason, not sin.  That action of disobedience to His instruction is what caused the false government of hasatan to be allowed to operate for 6,000 years until His purpose was fulfilled at the appointed time.  For the creation of the world was done in 6 days total and rest and set apart day of the 7th day. The 6th day or the millennial period is what He is teaching us this morning.  We can see all of the changes that have happened over the years, the days of the week from the beginning were day 1, day 2 and so on yet as man has determined in following this false government has changed the days of the week and the holy days of observance to varied pagan days. 
This is what happens when we are not clear on kingdom operations.  In a true kingdom, the king owns everything and is responsible for all of those in his kingdom.  Which means that anyone in lack is a reflection on the king on how well he treats the citizens of his kingdom.  There would need to be a petition to the king to live in his kingdom.  There is not just a move in freely and be included with the other citizens.  The structure of the kingdom is set by the laws of the king and the customs that he establishes to be in place over the kingdom.  This is not what Americans are familiar with, there is not election of the king or a body of citizens that are to represent 'the people'.  The kingdom is in the sole control of the king and he seeks out how to expand his dominion.  Is this why Yeshua charges His students to share His teachings and instructions with all that they meet, to extend His kingdom.  Matthew 28:19-20 (KJV) 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.  So are we to only limit this charge to those who would only speak of the goodness of Yeshua alone?  What commandments are they to teach?  Could this be the commandments of the kingdom, that which the King has decreed for His kingdom? We have to remember that in a kingdom, the king is the all powerful authority.  There is no one higher than the king.  Those growing up in a democracy feel that they should have a say or at least given the appearance of a choice.  Upon truthful review it can be clearly seen that all of the people in this current government do not have a clear say in how things operate.  Really the better question is who is best to say the way it should go?  The one who set all things in motion?  How about the one who has the funds to back up His domain?  Could it be that the One who is all-seeing, all-powerful, omniscient has it all under control?  Everything else is just a smoke screen that when the smoke fully clears we will see that all is not as it was televised. 
The creation of the linage of the promised seed to lead to the arrival of Yeshua, Yahweh in the flesh on the earth was set into motion after Adam's betrayal for he committed treason against his king.  It was during this 6,000 years that we have this process operating and drawing those who will walk in the commandments of the King to be able to teach others in the millennial period.  For the kingdom was experienced in some degree by the upholding of the teaching and instruction of our King of kings, is fully realized in the millennial reign of Yeshua in the flesh at His second coming.
Take time out to shift from the democratic government to what is a kingdom and how does it operate?  Do you know that covenants are an element in kingdoms?  Where the lesser makes a binding agreement with the more powerful and that both have now exchanged what they posses with the other.  There is also a sacrifice of an animal to bind this covenant.  Which also was a clear message of what would happen to the one who broke the covenant.  This is serious that you would loose your life for breaking the covenant!  As we see with Adam, he became separated from the close relationship with Yahweh that he had in the garden.  This separation is akin to death.  For now he had to toil and work to obtain even food to eat.  Yahweh is serious about all of His word.  He is not a politician who will spin His words to please various groups.  He will not reverse His word due to falling low in the political polls.  He is going forward and if you will line up and be fully committed to His good and right way, fall into step!  This is the ancient path that we speak about every day for the last few months.  This is a study you want to listen to again and again.  Click here.
