We are walking in today: You Need The Principles To Rule Over Principalities!
Joshua 24:15
And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day
whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were
on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose
land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
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:

Ephesians 6:12 For we are not struggling against human beings, but against the rulers, authorities and cosmic powers governing this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realm.
Then we have in Genesis--beginning was the Word and it was with God, that there was nothing made without the Word. That this same Word came and dwelt among us in the flesh. John 1:1-3, 14 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. We see this not only in Genesis 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. Then again we have in, Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. The Word is apart of the "let us make man in our own image," statement from Genesis 1:26. Fiveamprayer, I have a question for you--How did we ever get the idea that there were parts of the Bible that we are no longer to follow? The Word that was there even before the beginning began, that created all things, that was wrapped in flesh to walk among us--was put away or no longer valid? Well there is one place that we find the words void and word, in the same scripture--Isaiah 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. Well from this one and only scripture in the King James Bible that has those two words in the same scripture speaks to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob's word being immutable, that is does NOT return void but does what He pleases it to do! Philippians 2:7-9 7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name. Fiveamprayer we have Jesus Christ the only begotten of the Lord God Almighty, the Word made flesh--being obedient unto death. So how is it that we can do all that is in our wicked hearts and desires of our eyes and still run around claiming grace, grace?! So Yeshua was obedient to the Word unto death and we won't be obedient to the law of God unto to life?! Galatians 2:16-18 (CJB) 16 even so, we have come to realize that a person is not declared righteous by God on the ground of his legalistic observance of Torah commands, but through the Messiah Yeshua’s trusting faithfulness. Therefore, we too have put our trust in Messiah Yeshua and become faithful to him, in order that we might be declared righteous on the ground of the Messiah’s trusting faithfulness and not on the ground of our legalistic observance of Torah commands. For on the ground of legalistic observance of Torah commands, no one will be declared righteous. 17 But if, in seeking to be declared righteous by God through our union with the Messiah, we ourselves are indeed found to be sinners, then is the Messiah an aider and abettor of sin? Heaven forbid! 18 Indeed, if I build up again the legalistic bondage which I destroyed, I really do make myself a transgressor. Sounds like all that He speaks, His very word is not shaky nor unsure. That sounds resolute and definite to me! Can you say chiseled into stone? Sounds like the ten commandments, to me! The commandments did not contain an expiration date, if that was the case--with Jesus the Son of the Living God, the Word made flesh wouldn't He have told us in all of His teachings? Wouldn't this have been revealed to the prophets, who were told many things for a later time?!
Ok so now let's look at the law. Which in so many modern societies we have allowed even willingly followed many laws. For example on the roadways: if we did not follow the traffic signals how many accidents and deaths would be the result? How many more would have to go to jail for breaking those laws? How about some one just busting down your door, would that be alright for them to come in a take what ever they want? No you say, well if we are no longer under the law?! It is that same law that you disagree with, that gives us freedom from the things that lawlessness brings in our natural world how much more for us in the spirit realm? We know that satan and his influences were kicked out of heaven for trying to overtake and rule. So when they fell to Earth they thought that they would rule this realm, but we have to come to know and realize that we were made in this realm and have authority--Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Fiveamprayer we are made in His image and likeness and given dominion! So when satan tempted Yeshua what was His reply? It is written! The Word made flesh is quoting the written word, the word of authority that has power over principalities! Matthew 16:19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. So you still think that the law is over? Matthew 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
We have been given the keys to the kingdom of heaven--the 613 laws found in the Torah--Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. Laws to protect, lead and guide us. These law keep us healthy and prosperous. With so much lacking in many areas why would you not at the very least, investigate these laws for yourself? They are all found in the same Bible that you read. They are from the same God that you claim to serve. How different could they really be?! If Yeshua walked in them and we are called Christians shouldn't our lives resemble how He walked on the earth?!
We even find in Matthew 5 that Yeshua Ha Mashiach says that He did not come to destroy the law but to fulfill. He also teaches that until heaven and the earth pass, not even the smallest character of the law will pass until it is all fulfilled. Which we see that Yeshua taught His disciples to pray--Matthew 6:10 (KJV) Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Hebrews 8:5 But what they are serving is only a copy and shadow of the heavenly original; for when Moshe was about to erect the Tent, God warned him, “See to it that you make everything according to the pattern you were shown on the mountain.” We are to do and operate as they do in heaven. Adonai sent a colony of heaven to the earth, Yeshua came as King to teach us about the laws of His kingdom. When you are apart of a kingdom, the care and well being of the citizens of that kingdom is credited to the reputation of the king. Psalm 23:3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Only those that are given and operate in their rights by the law of God have power and authority in the earth! His will be done in earth as it it is in heaven! We are made from the dust of the earth and we want His will done in us as it is done in heaven. By now we can clearly see that we can not govern our own lives outside of Him! Yield unto your Maker, He truly knows what is best for you. What rest and peace is found in your willingness to walk in the 613 laws of Yahweh! That is where the grace is applied to assist us in walking this out. The law that was finished on the cross was the law of sin and death--this is why the punishment does not kick in when we fail in keeping the laws of God. But as we have been directed on this line before--what is the condition of your heart? Are you seeking to walk in the law to show your holiness? Or are you walking to point out the failings of others or walking in a true and pure love of the Almighty? Or are you looking to serve and walking according to what He has commanded us? That we would experience Him on a whole new level--such peace and rest! And there are so many out there that are worn-out, burned out and all churched out--surely you need some rest! To truly trust Him, be obedient unto Him even when you don't understand. Much like a parent and child relationship, the parent knows what is best for the child and should be followed without question! Abba, our Heavenly Father is perfect and full of love--why not be obedient unto life, for His Son was obedient unto death for us! With your life in shambles won't you stop putting tape on it to make it look presentable and show Him your brokenness, that He is already sadly aware of. It is only you who has not come to the realization that He is that cure, the answer, the Way, the Life! Won't you seek Him? Won't you be obedient unto to Him, unto life?! Take a selah moment and really look at this with spiritual eyes and what do you see with spiritual discernment? This can not be seen in the natural, that is what has gotten you in the woeful place! Seek Him and walk as He directs whether you fully understand or not. As His child shouldn't you just listen to Abba knowing He is your keeper and shield?! To hear this again click here.

Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against
spiritual wickedness in high places.
This same scripture reads like this in the Complete Jewish
Bible:Ephesians 6:12 For we are not struggling against human beings, but against the rulers, authorities and cosmic powers governing this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realm.
The kingdom of God
shows up in the Bible 68 times, many times spoken by Yeshua Himself. The
phrase kingdom of heaven shows up 31 times and also stated by Jesus Christ of
Nazareth. What is all of this kingdom talk all about? Why is that
important for those of us who are on an unrelenting search for the truth?
I am talking about that deep down burn to search and seek out the Almighty God.
To know more of Him and to better understand how to walk in this life?
Let us keep these questions in the foreground as we go through these scriptures
and see what it is that we find.
We see here in Matthew chapter 6 where Yeshua finishes
giving us a model prayer at the disciples request, He discusses our human
needs. Matthew 6:16-34 16 Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the
hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may
appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 17 But
thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face; 18 That thou
appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy
Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly. 19 Lay not up for
yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where
thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in
heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not
break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart
be also. 22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single,
thy whole body shall be full of light. 23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole
body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be
darkness, how great is that darkness! 24 No man can serve two masters: for
either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the
one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. 25 Therefore I say
unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall
drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than
meat, and the body than raiment? 26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow
not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father
feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? 27 Which of you by taking
thought can add one cubit unto his stature? 28 And why take ye thought for
raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not,
neither do they spin: 29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his
glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the
grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall
he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? 31 Therefore take no
thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal
shall we be clothed? 32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for
your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33 But seek
ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall
be added unto you. 34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow
shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the
evil thereof. So this gives us an answer to what we should be seeking, and
not seeking as the case maybe. We see that those walking outside of God's
teaching and instruction have the same natural needs that we as citizens of the
kingdom of heaven have as well. The difference is how we go about it.
Which brings us to Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all
these things shall be added unto you. Fiveamprayer we are to seek
first the kingdom
of God and His
righteousness. We learned last Thursday about Yahweh Tsidkenu, the Lord
is our righteousness. He is so gracious to give us His righteousness,
since we have none purely on our own. What a mighty and awesome God that we serve! Matthew 5:3-20 3 Blessed are the poor in spirit:
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they
shall be comforted. 5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. 6
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall
be filled. 7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. 8 Blessed
are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers:
for they shall be called the children of God. 10 Blessed are they which are
persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11
Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all
manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding
glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets
which were before you. 13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have
lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for
nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. 14 Ye are the
light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither do
men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it
giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before
men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in
heaven. 17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am
not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven
and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till
all be fulfilled. 19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least
commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the
kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be
called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I say unto you, That except your
righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye
shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. So why are the
poor in spirit blessed? Because theirs is the kingdom of heaven!
In Matthew 5:19, we have the ones who break the commandments and teach
others to do the same are the least in the kingdom of God and those who walk in
and teach others to do the same will be called great in the kingdom of
heaven. John 14:21 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.Then we have in Genesis--beginning was the Word and it was with God, that there was nothing made without the Word. That this same Word came and dwelt among us in the flesh. John 1:1-3, 14 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. We see this not only in Genesis 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. Then again we have in, Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. The Word is apart of the "let us make man in our own image," statement from Genesis 1:26. Fiveamprayer, I have a question for you--How did we ever get the idea that there were parts of the Bible that we are no longer to follow? The Word that was there even before the beginning began, that created all things, that was wrapped in flesh to walk among us--was put away or no longer valid? Well there is one place that we find the words void and word, in the same scripture--Isaiah 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. Well from this one and only scripture in the King James Bible that has those two words in the same scripture speaks to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob's word being immutable, that is does NOT return void but does what He pleases it to do! Philippians 2:7-9 7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name. Fiveamprayer we have Jesus Christ the only begotten of the Lord God Almighty, the Word made flesh--being obedient unto death. So how is it that we can do all that is in our wicked hearts and desires of our eyes and still run around claiming grace, grace?! So Yeshua was obedient to the Word unto death and we won't be obedient to the law of God unto to life?! Galatians 2:16-18 (CJB) 16 even so, we have come to realize that a person is not declared righteous by God on the ground of his legalistic observance of Torah commands, but through the Messiah Yeshua’s trusting faithfulness. Therefore, we too have put our trust in Messiah Yeshua and become faithful to him, in order that we might be declared righteous on the ground of the Messiah’s trusting faithfulness and not on the ground of our legalistic observance of Torah commands. For on the ground of legalistic observance of Torah commands, no one will be declared righteous. 17 But if, in seeking to be declared righteous by God through our union with the Messiah, we ourselves are indeed found to be sinners, then is the Messiah an aider and abettor of sin? Heaven forbid! 18 Indeed, if I build up again the legalistic bondage which I destroyed, I really do make myself a transgressor. Sounds like all that He speaks, His very word is not shaky nor unsure.

We know that satan and his influences were kicked out of heaven for trying to overtake and rule.

Fiveamprayer we are made in His image and likeness and given dominion! So when satan tempted Yeshua what was His reply? It is written! The Word made flesh is quoting the written word, the word of authority that has power over principalities! Matthew 16:19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. So you still think that the law is over? Matthew 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
We have been given the keys to the kingdom of heaven--the 613 laws found in the Torah--Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. Laws to protect, lead and guide us.

Psalm 23:3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Only those that are given and operate in their rights by the law of God have power and authority in the earth! His will be done in earth as it it is in heaven! We are made from the dust of the earth and we want His will done in us as it is done in heaven. By now we can clearly see that we can not govern our own lives outside of Him! Yield unto your Maker, He truly knows what is best for you. What rest and peace is found in your willingness to walk in the 613 laws of Yahweh! That is where the grace is applied to assist us in walking this out.

Much like a parent and child relationship, the parent knows what is best for the child and should be followed without question! Abba, our Heavenly Father is perfect and full of love--why not be obedient unto life, for His Son was obedient unto death for us! With your life in shambles won't you stop putting tape on it to make it look presentable and show Him your brokenness, that He is already sadly aware of. It is only you who has not come to the realization that He is that cure, the answer, the Way, the Life! Won't you seek Him? Won't you be obedient unto to Him, unto life?! Take a selah moment and really look at this with spiritual eyes and what do you see with spiritual discernment? This can not be seen in the natural, that is what has gotten you in the woeful place! Seek Him and walk as He directs whether you fully understand or not. As His child shouldn't you just listen to Abba knowing He is your keeper and shield?! To hear this again click here.
We seal this prayer in the precious blood of Jesus of Nazareth, the only Begotten of the Heavenly Father and by the Holy Spirit: Matthew 13:44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. We must walk in the principles that Adonai has given us to walk in this redeemed life!
