YAH'S PURPOSE FOR THE MALE!!!!!!!
Genesis chapter 1
Today we are walking in: Yah's Purpose For The Male!!!!!
Today we look to the word- KING- H4427- Malak- to reign; inceptively, to ascend the throne; causatively, to induct into royalty; hence (by implication) to take counsel:—consult, indeed, be (make, set a, set up) king, be (make) queen, (begin to, make to) reigning, rule, surely.
The Torah Testifies……………………
Genesis 14:18
And Melchizedek king H4427 of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.
The Prophets Proclaim……………………
Isaiah 44:6
Thus saith the LORD the King H4427 of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
The Writings Bear Witness…………………..
Psalm 10:16
The LORD is King H4427 for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.
Yah’s Purpose for The Male
Yah Designed and Equipped the Male to Carry Out Every Purpose and Function He Has Been Given.
Many men are still wondering why they exist. Yet the Creator of man did not leave us guessing about who the male is supposed to be and what he is designed to do. In this teaching, we are going to explore Yah‘s original intentions for men, so that there‘s no more worry, no more guessing as to their reason for being. We turn again to Proverbs 19:21 for the vital truth, “Many are the plans in a man‟s heart, but it is the Most High‟s purpose that prevails.” Many are our opinions of what man should be, but the Most High‘s purpose is the only one that counts—and this purpose is the key to our fulfillment.
What we will be looking at is the male‘s ideal purpose. This is not where we are right now. Yet Yah‘s ideal is what we should be moving toward; and by His grace, we will.
The Creation of the Male-Man
We first need to remember that Yah creates according to the requirements of His purposes. In the previous teaching, we learned that Yah desired to dominate and influence the planet through mankind, and so He created man—the spirit—in His image and then placed the man in two physical ―houses, male and female. “So Yah created man in his own image, in the image of Yah he created him; male and female he created them” (Gen. 1:27).
I would like to point out here that since the spirit-man dwells in both male and female, we may refer to the male as a male-man and to the female as a female-man. This will remind us that men and women are both man. The distinctions between men and women are physical and functional, rather than of their essence.
The purpose of man—the spirit—and the purpose of the male are two different things, although they are related. Man was created in Yah‘s image for the purposes we discussed in the previous teaching. Male was made to serve the needs of man on earth and to enable him to fulfill his purpose.
Genesis 2 gives us a more detailed explanation of the manner in which Yah made male and female. First, He “formed” the male: “The Most High Yah formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being” (Gen. 2:7). The male was made first, and there was an interlude of time before the female was made. There is much we can learn about Yah‘s purposes for the male by what the male saw, heard, and learned during this interlude.
Remember that the purpose of something determines its nature, its design, and its features. This means that the nature, design, and qualities of males were decided upon by Yah and created by Him according to what He determined was best for the sake of His purposes.
Elements of the Male’s Purpose
-The purpose of the male may be summed up as his priority, his position, and his assignment.
-Priority refers to the man‘s order in creation and what this means in regard to his reason for being.
-Position refers to the environment and place in which the man is to carry out his purpose.
-Assignment means the functions or tasks that the man has been given.
1. The Male’s Priority
The order in which the male was created gives us the first indication of his reason for being. Why did Yah make the male first? It was not because the male was better, but because of his purpose.
When you think about it, Yah really made only one human being. When He created the female, He didn‘t go back to the soil, but He fashioned her from the side of the man. (See Genesis 2:21–23.) Only the male came directly from the earth. This was because the male was designed by Yah to be the foundation of the human family. The woman came out of the man rather than the earth because she was designed to rest on the man—to have the male as her support.
I believe that the foundation of society, the infrastructure Yah intended for this world, has been misunderstood. We often say that the family is the foundation of society. It is very true that the family is the adhesive that holds it together. Yet Yah did not start to build earthly society with a family. He began it with one person. He began it with the male- man.
Remember our discussion of the principles of purpose in past teachings? Because Yah is a Yah of purpose, He planned everything before He began to create, so that when He started digging the foundation, He knew exactly what He wanted and what the completed picture would look like. But he had to start with the foundation.
Have you ever seen a contractor build a house starting with the roof? Have you ever seen a guy walk into an empty lot and hold up a window in the air, trying to get it to stay? You don‘t start with the windows. You don‘t start with the roof. You don‘t start with the rafters. Likewise, Yah starts like any other builder. The priority in building is always what you need to do first. You start with the foundation.
Yah‘s communications to man in the Bible indicate the importance He places on building from the foundation up.
What did Yahusha describe as our foremost priority? What we‘re building on. (See Matthew 7:24–27.) He said, in effect, ―Now, some of you are building on sand. Your building looks good, but I don‘t care how good your building looks. If your foundation isn‘t right, there‘s going to be a great crash.
Paul said, “No one can lay any [spiritual] foundation other than the one already laid” (1 Cor. 3:11). What—or rather, who—is that foundation? “Yahusha Hamachiach” (v. 11). So Yah does not think of foundations in terms of only concrete and water, but also in terms of people.
That is why, when Yah began to build the human race, He began by laying the foundation of the male. Yah placed males at the bottom of the entire building of humanity. This means that society is only as strong as its males. If the males don‘t learn what it means to be a strong foundation in Yah, then society is sunk. That goes for America, Canada, Russia, China—all the nations of the world. If the male leaves the home, or if he neglects his responsibility, you have a house built on sand. It becomes very difficult for those windows to stay intact. The rafters rock when the pressures come because the man isn‘t there.
You children of divorce know what I‘m talking about. Your mother was a single parent and had to struggle, so that you weren‘t sure what was going to happen to the family. Of course, you are grateful to your mother. You really appreciate what she did, and you thank Yah that she weathered the storm and got through life. She did well. However, you all suffered the trauma of a missing foundation.
When the male-man has cracks and faults in the substructure of his life, then the whole building is on shaky ground. Now men, let‘s talk. This is the year you must decide to get yourself on solid ground, for as the man goes, so goes the family, society, and the world. Take a look at the condition of our societies and nations. How do you think the men are doing?
Our societies are in a mess because, as the foundation, men have become sandy—uncertain and unstable. How can you build a human race on a foundation that is full of sand mixed with straw? A foundation is always measured by how much weight can be placed on it.
When I was building my house, the architect and contractor were discussing all these figures, and I got confused. I was sitting there acting as if I knew what they were talking about. They were saying things like, ―How much weight can the foundation hold? I said, Concrete is concrete. But, no, I found out that they had to calculate things like the height of the house, how many stories it would have, and what the roof would weigh when it was finished. They had to check all those things before they even started the foundation. Why? Because if there are twenty tons weighing on the foundation, they have to put in enough reinforced steel so that when the weight sits on it, it doesn‘t crack. The foundation has to have the first priority because everything else will be built on it.
Again, when Yah made the male first, He wasn‘t saying that the male is more important than the female. He was saying that the male has a specific responsibility. He has a purpose to fulfill that is just like the foundation. Even though the foundation is important, it‘s not more important than the other parts of the building. The foundation can‘t perform all the functions itself. For example, it cannot protect the occupants from the weather. You can walk around saying, ―I have a $500,000 foundation here. Isn‘t that nice— solid concrete. But then the rain comes. The foundation can‘t keep you dry; only the roof can. It‘s the same way with the human family. The foundation is crucial, but the rest of the family is essential, also.
Remember that the foundation is often hidden. I don‘t see the foundation of my house anymore, even though I was involved in discussions about it and watched it being dug and poured. I know it‘s there, because I saw it being put in. Today, I walk on the foundation all the time, but I never see it. The foundation is meant to be solid, dependable, but not necessarily seen.
Many of you men need to live like the foundation you were created to be just be there and keep the home steady so that your wife and children can always lean on you and know that you aren‘t going to crack. Many young boys with absentee fathers—men who are missing either physically or emotionally are walking in mud instead of on concrete. These young boys are trying to find a foundation for their lives, but there‘s mud all over them, because there‘s just no place where they can stand on solid ground. Their foundations are missing. Then, when they grow up, they will go out and try to become foundations themselves. The only problem is, they were never shown what a true foundation is.
I once heard the statement, ―A young boy becomes a man when his father tells him he‘s a man. Many young boys never had a father to tell them who they are. The purpose of the male-man is to give foundation to the structure of life.
I‘m praying that Yah will raise up some strong foundational men. Men who will stand by their wives and stand with their children and be there as a stabilizer. Men whose families will feel secure in their strength. It doesn‘t matter what your father was you can be a strong foundation by becoming the man Yah created you to be.
I was speaking about this topic recently, and a young man said to me, But you don‘t understand the history of the Afro-Caribbean man. I inherited my granddaddy and great-granddaddy‘s legacy, you know. I said, Hold it right there. Whenever a negative history predicts your future, your present is in trouble. Don‘t come and tell me that you have to repeat your history. What men are about is creating history. You need to create a new history for all our children‘s children. And then I told him, It doesn‘t matter who your grandfather was. The important issue is what your grandchildren are going to say about you.
Solomon said, “A good man leaves an inheritance for his children‟s children” (Prov. 13:22). I like that. A good man doesn‘t think about the past. He thinks about the fu- ture. A good man doesn‘t leave an inheritance of just money and land. That‘s not the only inheritance Solomon was talking about. He was talking about a heritage, something to stand on, something to lean on throughout life.
Maybe when you were growing up, your father left when things got tough. You think you need to do the same thing now that you have a family. Let me tell you: if you have a little boy, and you leave, you‘ll teach him the same thing your father taught you. It doesn‘t stop. It causes a perpetual cycle of destruction. We have to stop this cycle by getting back to Yah‘s Manual and getting on course again.
