3 They do nothing wrong but live by his ways.
4 You laid down your precepts for us to observe with care.
5 May my ways be steady in observing your laws.
6 Then I will not be put to shame, since I will have fixed my sight on all your mitzvot.
7 I thank you with a sincere heart as I learn your righteous rulings.
8 I will observe your laws; don’t completely abandon me!
The Omer is an offering of wheat and measurement that was commanded to be brought before the priests every year. By the children of Israel. As part of the gratitude of Yahweh's provisions and an idiom of El Elyon as being the bread of life. As well as mankind characterized by the wheat and tares. Yeshua's parable told to his disciples.
John 6:35 Yeshua answered, “I am the bread which is life! Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever trusts in me will never be thirsty. - CJB
So each day counting up to the 50th day. Leads up to Pentecost starting from the first day of counting the Omer. During the 7-week count. Each day has a connection to walking with Yahweh and bringing the Omer offering made by fire to the priest.

Ok, so we have the count of the Omer. Which is the offering made by fire, which is man. This tells me what El Eyon is saying nowadays, that we are to count each day as a sacrifice of self. Anything that is not of Hashem as each Omer is read. Shows us what area that needs to be cleaned and healed in order to receive the blessings and promises of counting up to Pentecost (Shavuot). We will be discussing Shavuot in tomorrow's lesson.
Now, what are we specifically counting?
Psalms 119 Has sections that are marked off by the Hebrew aleph bet. Starting from aleph to the last letter Tov. Contained in the sections are prayers. These alphabets are the original language of the Hebrews and of the Bible. One of the world's most ancient letters and languages. The belief is that Ahya Asher Ahya created life by the announcement by the using of these letters. The other interesting fact is that the Aleph Tov has a numerical value. These 22 letters that have a numerical value. Also, the Aleph Tov value changes after the 10th letter. Which is Yod valued at 10. From there all of the power goes by 10 so after Yod is Kaf=20 the 11th alphabet. So even though it's the 11th aleph bet it's valued at 20 and so forth to the 22nd and last aleph. Which is Tov equaling 400.
The power is found in the instructions to count. Since we have found that our Yahweh does things in cycles. Ecclesiastics 1:9 States nothing new is under the sun and all things are done in decency and in order.
1 Corinthians 14: 40 But let all things be done in a proper and orderly way. - CJB
So we learn to count seasons, days and months. From one Feast Day and its season to the next as a perpetual regulation from generation to generation. The same Feast Days implemented some thousands of years ago. Given to Adam then to Moses than to Israel. Never changing except for the sacrifices of animals because of the ultimate sacrifice. Yeshua paid it all to the T. The laws of sin and death. That will be another lesson but not to be overlooked.
Due to all the feast days of The Most High pointing to Him. Every part of the feast days is observed to the specific time of year since its establishment. The significance isn't just for selfish man-made traditions. That all point to everything other than what God established from the beginning.
I repeat. All God's feast days once again points back to Him and can be found not only in the scriptures. We read.... or may not, but not only are they found in the scriptures. But they are to be observed as a sign of a covenant between the children of Yahweh or the children of many gods (The nations outside of Torah).
In making the Omer count in our lives, meditating on these scriptures will be helpful in addition to reading Psalm 119 and each section of alphabet
