Whom Do You Say That I Am?
Messiah In You
mes·si·ah məˈsīə/ noun 1. the promised deliverer of the Jewish nation prophesied in the Hebrew Bible. 2. a leader or savior of a particular group or cause.
Messiah or Hamashiach in Hebrew means a deliverer of the Hebrews. Delivered from what? I thought the Hebrews freedom from slavery occurred already with the black Egyptian dynasty and The Great I Am that I Am. Calling Moses to lead El Elyon’s people to worship His feast days and practice His commandments as they where taught.
That meant the Messiah had to keep delivering Israel beyond several times. Due to the fact that the Hebrews of old had a stiff neck, hardheaded donkey mind, mule hearted purpose to be fullfiled always by El Elyon. All knowing, all powerful, all planned. Trust He did send deliverers throughout Israel’s many captivities.
The question is--if you know your God is The God of All Gods and He has proven it time and time again. Why would you keep doing everything contrary to what He teaches.???? Knowing your are going to fail and be in bondage and loose everything given promised ect… In this writing we will look at several items that will help us to discern His will, so that we might allow Messiah who lives within us, to bring us in.
Discerning His Will
Let's take particular note of the consistency and urgency of the following statements, as we try to listen for, and discern His will for us. And as you read along, remember this is the Word of the Most High, who is Yahushua Messiah, speaking to us in all of these passages:
And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. (Exodus 20:6)
And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments. (Deuteronomy 5:10)
Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations; (Deuteronomy 7:9)
Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, always. (Deuteronomy 11:1)
For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him; (Deuteronomy 11:22)
If thou shalt keep all these commandments to do them, which I command thee this day, to love the LORD thy God, and to walk ever in his ways; then shalt thou add three cities more for thee, beside these three: (Deuteronomy 19:9)
In that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it. (Deuteronomy 30:16)
But take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the LORD charged you, to love the LORD your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul. (Joshua 22:5)
And said, I beseech thee, O LORD God of heaven, the great and terrible God, that keepeth covenant and mercy for them that love him and observe his commandments: (Nehemiah 1:5)
And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments; (Daniel 9:4)
If ye love me, keep my commandments. (John 14:15)
He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. (John 14:21)
If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide [remain] in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. (John 15:10)
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep commandments. (1John 5:2)
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. (1John 5:3)
Beloved, the above passages show the close connection of love, El Elyon’s commandments. We note from the above passages that the ultimate test of our love is based on whether or not we keep Yahushua commandments.
I find it interesting that the laws that teach us how to love one another and how to act in The Most Highs kingdom as citizens. These laws He gave were thrown out and the man-made laws and traditions was kept. Yet some of the most hateful people I’ve know have not been from the streets, but from behind church and religious walls. Upholding their man made laws. Saying, thou shalt not get pregnant and be the ones impregnating. Thou shalt not drink and gamble and what not. Still will tell you in the same breath that the laws Yeshua committed to was nailed to the cross. So we wonder why a lot of the body is as hateful and crazy as ever and the history of the body shows. No commandments in you, no Yeshua Hamashiach in you. The father of Yeshua but not of--just as the Disciples of Yahushua's day followed Yahushua, in the same way Yahushua gives us His example for us to follow today. Notice Yahushua tells us in John 15:10, "...even as I have kept my Father's commandments."
In this statement, Yahushua gives Himself as our example to follow; and then the apostle John reminds us in 1John 2:6, "He that saith he abideth [is remaining] in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked." Yahushua kept Father's commandments, so we who desire to abide [remain] in Him, ought do the same.
Entering His Rest: The Fulfillment
There are 15 verses listed above. The number '15' speaks of "Rest." We are then reminded that the phrase 'My Sabbaths' occurs fifteen times in Scripture. This phrase reveals both the importance, and the means, of entering Father's rest. The Theologians, and most of their followers today, have dreamed up elaborate schemes to deceive their followers, listing reasons why the "Sabbaths" of the Most High are not for New Testament Believers. Fiveamprayer, the implications are enormous. If we desire to be a "DO-er" of Yahushua's sayings, His commandments, then we must be talking about being a doer of not only the obvious ones in the New Testament, but a do-er of the Most High's 'Old Testament' commandments spoken by Yahushua, including the Ten commandments, His ordinances, and His Feasts, and all those things Yahushua has spoken, and in which He has prepared for His people to walk.
Titus 1:14
Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.
Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning. (1John 2:7)
And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another. (2John 1:5)
These passages, tell us plainly that John is talking about the Old commandment, or the commandments in the 'Old' Testament. Notice the following passage:
Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself: I am the LORD. (Leviticus 19:18)
This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. (John 15:12)
Well, what about the New Commandment of Yahushua, that we love one another. Isn't that the only commandment we must obey?" Let us look at the following verse:
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. (John 13:34)
This New commandment is much more demanding than the Old Testament command to love. This new commandment does not replace everything else He spoke, but is in addition to everything else He has said. Foolish teachers have taught, however, that this new commandment supersedes or replaces all the Old Testament commandments, thus they say we need not "obey" them. What rubbish! To the contrary, Yahushua merely summed up the commandments into two general summary categories, however, and did not say that the Law [Torah] or the commandments were superseded, replaced, or in any way done away with. Let us notice the following words Yahushua spoke to those who sought to enter His Kingdom. First, in showing how the two greatest laws summarize all the rest, Yahushua said:
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. (Matthew 7:12)
On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. (Matthew 22:40)
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 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. 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. (Matthew 5:17-19)
Moreover, we have further testimony that true love for Yahushua (the Most High) is shown by our obedience to His commandments, as John points out:
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. (1John 5:2-3)
Messiah-In-You
As Believers, we have been set free, and forgiven, and cleansed for a purpose, just as a vessel must be cleansed before it is filled (Gal 3:14). Let us now look at the purpose for our cleansing. Notice the following passage:
Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: (Colossians 1:26-28)
Notice the issue of 'Messiah-in-you' is listed as a mystery. Not many will understand it. Second, we see that 'Messiah-in-you' is the hope of glory. The use of the word 'the' shows exclusiveness, and tells us that this is the only hope of glory, of being counted among those called "My Glory," and of being among those who will be allowed to enter in to the City of the King. The word 'perfect' shows that the goal of informing others about 'Messiah-in-you' is that they would become 'perfect' or complete, a term referring to the preparation of the Company of Believers, just as a Bride prepares for her Husband. Just as a baby in the natural sense is the result of an intimate fellowship, so it is in the spiritual realm. It is in this way that we become Born-Again, in that Messiah becomes birthed within us, and "Messiah-in-us" is formed within us. This is how He comes forth in us, and how we grow up in Him, as we mature, and become increasingly obedient to all of Scripture (Gal 4:19; Eph 4:15).
The Most High desires that we walk together with Him, day by day. As we choose daily to allow ourselves to be conformed to the image of Messiah, we begin to notice that some of the dealings of the Most High are not as we expected. We go through many experiences of what we think is death to self, and it really is, but resurrection life is brought forth as a result! The Master deals with us about yokes of bondage, and how we are not to be yoked again, but then expects us to take on His yoke of bondage (Matt 11:29-30), the yoke of bondage in betrothal to Him, in the marriage Covenant with Him (Ezekiel 20:37).
This last step is very difficult for most Believers to do, since they have been trained by their teachers and false prophets to avoid all forms of bondage, including the 'Bond(age)' of Love between the Lamb and His Bride! It may be noted here that the main feature of the Mountain of El Elyon's presence — His habitation, called Mount Zion in Scripture — is 'Bondage.' Everything of Truth in The Most High's kingdom appears as Bondage, and for that reason only the few, the very elect of El Elyon, will attempt to come near, and touch the Mountain.
Shema Selah, what is the instruction that Most High, gave you? Hold fast to that for it is your blessing as your wrestle with your old way, be renewed as you enter the promised land with a change in name given by the Most High!! Facebook LIVE video
