Shalom Ha Makem – The Place For Our Life To Mature

Etz Chayim – Tree of Life.

Followers of Yeshua/Jesus understand that He (alone) is the Tree of Life, the Center of the true Paradise of God in Rev. 22:2. Yeshua/Jesus is the Seed, Root, Trunk, Branches, and Fruit that comes from heaven. 

Speaking words of life from the source of the tree of life, to give the Word a platform; with shalom, a place for our life, (lives/chaim), to mature; and connecting some more pieces together.

Faith comes (X) BY hearing and hearing (X) BY the word. (X = Sign for multiply in math.)

 see last post. https://www.minimannamoments.com/a-paradox-the-echad-of-elohim/)

When you hear yourself say the words, it reinforces your faith and God watches over His Word to perform it to cause it to come to pass.

Jeremiah 1:12 then the LORD said to me, “You have seen well; for I watch over my word to perform it.”

Is. 55:11 So shall My word be that goes forth out of My mouth: it which I please and purpose, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

When we speak words of truth from scripture, faith is stimulated and rises up in our hearts. When we give His words a voice, He hears and can energize them on our behalf, causing them to be filled with His life/lives (Chaim) and manifest His power in the natural, physical realm, where the answers are needed. We create a platform for His miracles to occur and (X) By His Word (X) By His Blood (X) By His Spirit (X)

By His death(s) we are raised in His life/lives/chaim. All the X multiples = 1 – the Echad of Elohim.

In Hebrew the word for “life” is chayim ( חַיִּים ), which is plural to show us that we cannot live life alone… within the word itself are embedded two Yods ( יי ), representing unity in plurality
(Yod-Yod is also a Name of God).
The LORD is called Elohim Chayim
( אֱלהִים חַיִּים),…
the living God and we only come to life BY our unity with Him in the truth.

In the Ephesians armor of The Lord the sword (of the spirit) which represents the (S)Words of God coming out of our mouths with His authority which empowers them. The sword is the only offensive part of the armor, the rest are defensive, for protection. The Word only needs an S in the front of it to make it effective as an optimum offensive weapon.

The Sword contains the Word and is integral to its’ pronunciation, therefore you cannot have the sword of the Lord without the word in it, making up the majority of its letters. If this is the only weapon then it must be all we need, or God would have supplied more.

This is focusing on the Ephesians 6 armor and of course…

we overcome by the Word of our testimony and the Blood of the Lamb.

This is the testimony of what the Blood has done for us as regards salvation, deliverance, protection, etc. (see confession statement below.)

I testify to Satan personally as to what the Word of God says the Jesus/Yeshua’s Blood does for me. Through the Blood of Yeshua/Jesus, I am redeemed out of the hand of the devil. Through the Blood of Yeshua/Jesus, all my sins are forgiven. The Blood of Yeshua /Jesus Christ, Yeshua my God’s Son, continually cleanses me from all sin.

Through the blood of Yeshua /Jesus, I am justified, made righteous, just-as-if-I’d never sinned. Through the blood of Yeshua /Jesus I am sanctified, Made holy, set apart to Hashem my God. My body is a temple of the Ruach Ha Kodesh/Holy Spirit, redeemed, cleansed by the blood of Jesus/Yeshua. Satan has no place in me, no power over me, through the Blood of Yeshua /Jesus.

It is not referring to our life’s story. (Unless we are thinking we can bore the enemy into submission! He already is well aware of what we’ve done. We instead need to declare the victory in our lives and what God has done for us.)

Angels also hearken to the Word of God: Bless the Lord, you His angels, Who excel in strength, who do His word, Heeding the voice of His word. Psalm 103:20

This suggests we can expect angelic aid when necessary and when we speak out words of scripture.

A quick reference to one of the images on homepage – when we dig we will find our treasure here – this image highlights the letter TAV which is represented by an X

This in reference to the last post concerning Echad and a way to try and understand the concept of the oneness of God!

https://www.minimannamoments.com/a-paradox-the-echad-of-elohim/)

Tav is the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet.

In the picture above represented by an X as the Middle Age way of depicting the letter as shown in image below.

The image of the Early Paleo Hebrew script is in the shape of a cross!

Thousands of years before it was used by the Romans as a means of execution or became the well known ‘Christian’ symbol. As it evolved into today’s modern script, it was also represented in the shape of the X, the same symbol used today in mathematics as a sign of multiplication.

(See post for further explanation.)

As the last letter in the Hebrew alphabet Tav denotes the end, the finish, the Completion. These were among Jesus/Yeshua’s last words on the TAV/cross (It is finished). He said about Himself, He is the Alef and Tav. (In Greek, the alpha and the omega); the beginning and the end; the first and the last.

Col.1:20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

And he is before all things, and BY him all things consist. Col.1:17

BY (X) Him All things consist … It’s in the DNA.

Rev 4:11. “Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created.”

When we choose to look at the Word as if we are seeing/reading it for the first time, it will allow Holy Spirit/Ruach HaKodesh, to quicken it’s meaning to us.

We have such a deep rooted western, greek influenced mind set on things; because it’s what we were told and how we raised. The roots of our faith are Jewish, Hebraic, Israelite in their origins, whether we like it, embrace it, or believe it or not, it’s still the truth.

During the last 2000 years, leaders of Christendom have sought to separate Christianity from those roots. (In the fourth century, during the Councils of Elvira and Nicaea, church elders established many rules and regulations to separate the Church from the Jewish roots of Her faith.)

Today Bible prophecy is being fulfilled as the reconciliation of both Messianic Hebrew/Jewish/Israelites and Gentile/Goyim/Heathen/Nations come together to become the one new man. With this restoration comes greater understanding of scriptures as the truths lost in translation are restored to His challah/bride, His ecclesia/called out ones.

The two are made “one new man;” the Gentile is not turned into a Jew, nor the Jew into a Gentile, but both into one new man, thus removing all grounds of jealousy. This transformation is “in himself;” in vital union to Messiah they are formed into one body.

Echad.

Many Jews in Israel today are traditional and Orthodox Jews and do not recognize that Yeshua/Jesus was the Messiah and for whom they are still waiting. Those who have accepted Jesus/Yeshua as Messiah are known as Messianic Jews. They are not to be confused with the orthodox Jews who are the ones wanting the 3rd Temple to be built as they are the same that Jesus/Yeshua had issue with in His day. We are to continue to pray for their eyes to see their true Messiah.

“Then Jesus said to them, ‘Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees. 11 How is it you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread but to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.’ 12 Then they understood that He did not tell them to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” ” (Matthew 16:6,11,12, NKJV also in Mark 8:15 and Luke 12:1)

Beware the Leaven of the Pharisees “Leaven was a common Jewish metaphor for an invisible, pervasive influence.”

Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees and be a wise Christian. When Messiah did the work of redemption, the Israelites blindly follow the Pharisees’ words to nail Jesus/Yeshua to the cross so that they were self condemned to destruction.

The Jews quickly assumed full responsibility for His death: We accept the punishment for such a crime; let it be upon us and upon our children. They were visited with the same kind of punishment and worse, for the Romans crucified them in such numbers that there were no more crosses or place for them (Luke 21:20-24).

As many as 500 a day were scourged and crucified. Their children for ages have gone through untold sufferings in all lands. They are yet to suffer the greatest time of tribulation that has ever been on earth or ever will be. Besides, if the Jews were the only ones who killed him, then he didn’t die for anyone else. But he died for all, not just for Jews: the righteous Messiah died for everyone who is unrighteous, which is to say, for everyone. Everyone, Jew and Gentile alike, is a sinner.

 If one does a study of who the Pharisees were and what they believed and practiced they would be shocked to find they are still among us today. Not just in the Judaism as in the Ultra Orthodox, but in some areas of under the guise of “Christianity”. This is why we are given the gift of discerning of spirits, so we‘ll not be deceived.

Since it only takes a small amount of yeast or other leavening agent to transform an entire lump of dough, Messiah must mean that it takes only a little bit of what the Pharisees and Herod have to offer to ruin a person.

The Pharisees used a form of dis-fellowshipping to keep the Jews inline. Being thrown out of the synagogue would mean complete ostracism from Jewish society. The Pharisees used that as a form of coercion to prevent the Jews from confessing their belief that Jesus/Yeshua was the Messiah.

If and when they do build the temple, the false anti, (against), messiah, the man of sin spoken of in Revelation will quickly arrive on the scene. Israel is an indicator of where we are in God’s timeline, we should keep an eye on Jerusalem as prophecy unfolds before our eyes. The scripture says if a peace treaty is signed it will trigger specific ‘end of this age’ events. (Not the ‘end of the world’, so don’t be scared, be prepared spiritually. Men and the devil think they are in control of things but they are not God is.)

1Cor.2:8 says None of the rulers of this age understood this, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. Berean Study Bible.

The same could be said today, the (spiritual) rulers still don’t understand, they think they are going to win.

Coming back to the One New Man – Here in Ephesians 2:15 it says: having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace.

This can also mean the new man made out of each individual that He molds and makes us into.

And also the Lords ‘body of believers’ the ecclesia, the called out ones, who are to be His Challah/kallah, His bride.

(Jeremiah 3:14 says the I AM (ANOCHI) married Israel. You will call Me ishi My husband and will no longer call Me Baali, My Husband.

חָתָן bridegroom 2860 chathan khaw-thawn’

כַּלָה bride Kallah 3618 kallah   kal-law’

Jeremiah 3:14 , saith the Lord; for I am married unto you: declares the LORD, “for I am your husband.

Husband in Greek

Isaiah 54:4 is One of the most significant names is husband\ bridegroom.

For your Maker is your husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and your Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.

My husband – ISHI in Hebrew.

Hosea 2:16 speaking of Israel and remembering we are grafted in to the Olive tree and are ‘spiritually Israel’.

Hosea 2:18/ and it will be in that day, says the Lord, you will call me Ishi, my husband, and will no longer call me baali, my husband.

Here Ishi and baali, both mean my husband, in Hebrew however baali, also means my master. Ishi is the equal status in which Adam and Eve were created. So His desire is for us, His ‘bride’, to no longer call Him Baali, Master, (meaning we are in a relationship as a servant); but to call Him, Ishi, the intimate, close relationship of a husband, kinsman redeemer.

It is not important how old we are or how bold we think we are, we are His children.

He is our loving Father and if we are really honest with ourselves, there is a childlike quality in each of us still …

that softens at the thought of curling up and nestling warm and safe under the feathers of His wings.

Even the furry members of our extended families seem to know this is true of blankets!

Just like we do under a blanket in our favorite chair, sofa or bed… but we have to let Him hold us.

He cannot, if we are always wriggling and restless, squirming around with life’s worries and problems. He said shalom alecheim. My peace I give it to you. We have be still.. and know that He is God.

Shalom,

It means to set, to establish you in shalom. the word normally translated peace, means health, welfare, security, justice, and tranquility, also freedom from all disaster. A Hebrew scholar gave the best English translation of shalom: no good thing is withheld. Jesus/Yeshua gave us in this peace in John 14:27 saying, ‘shalom aleikhem’.

Shalom it cannot be translated into English with a single word.

Shalom comes from shalem meaning to be complete, shalam = restore.

When there is shalom there is tranquility just as sufficient food clothing Housing. There is divine health, with no sickness. Shalom means an absence of: disorder, injustice, bribery, corruption, conflict, flat, hatred, abuse, violence, pain, suffering, immorality and all the other negative forces.

Therefore, when we pray for the peace of Jerusalem, we are praying for the shalom of Jerusalem. We are praying that there will not be any injustice, disorder, strife, violence, poverty, sickness, abuse, accidents, homelessness, pain, anger, and more. When shalom rains there will be no where morality, no injustice and the principles advocated in the scriptures will be followed by all. Then the command to love your neighbor will be to made complete.

And it appears that one aspect of the secret place is right in the center of those soft feathers. We need to learn the definition of that which Jesus/Yeshua gives us because as often as we need it…. it is always there for us.

In Ps 91, this feathery nest is a place of safety it is another place of our hiding protected against all snares, and destruction.

The wings, of Boaz’ blanket in Ruth, showed us it is a place of intimacy.

Boaz (who was a type and shadow of Jesus as the kinsman redeemer) his blanket was his prayer shawl and the skirt of it in the literal Hebrew is wing.

It was a Jewish practice for a groom to cover his bride with a garment, the wings of the tallit, his prayer shawl. It was a precursor of the chuppah in today’s Jewish weddings. Ruth was saying let’s get married you are my kinsman redeemer.

Under the Lord’s wings is a statement of intimacy with Him indicating conversion to worship of the Lord.

When we abide under his wings we are his betrothed, the bride saying let’s be married, let’s be echad one. 1X1=1

It is the agreement and acceptance of the covenant. Prophetic of Messiah, and as Ruth was a Moabitess, also refers to the Gentile nations becoming a part of the covenant forming the One New Man.

This is where we can enter in to a deep relationship akin to that of a marriage.

This is the secret place,

Strong’s Hebrew: 4565. מִסְתָּר (mistar) — a secret place

mistar: a secret place, hiding place, concealment

מִסְתָּר

Transliteration: mistar g

Phonetic Spelling: (mis-tawr’)

The place – ha makem

‘Ha Makem’- ‘The Place’-המקום

The place of closeness, of relationship, of communion, Holy – set-apartness. This is the holy of holy’s הַקֳּדָשִׁים קֹדֶשׁ Kodesh HaKadashim. 

Termed also the “miḳdash ha-ḳodesh” (Lev. xvi. 33 The Inner Sanctuary. The Holy of Holies (Kodesh HaKadashim in Hebrew Qṓḏeš HaQŏḏāšîm), as its name implies, was the most sacred part of the entire Temple.

Today our bodies are His Sanctuary/Temple, His spirit dwells in us. Could it be said our spirit is the ark the container the Kodesh HaKadashim, The Inner Sanctuary – miḳdash ha-ḳodesh?

And when we make Him our refuge, when we abide in this place of habitation, we will look out from there and see He has taken care of all that would trouble us.

There are angels watching over us and all the power of the enemy is under his feet. Psalm 91:11

Verse 4, His protection extends around us, we are enveloped by His buckler; which means that which goes around – (see post)

 https://www.minimannamoments.com/because-10/

A buckler*. (*Heb. ‘Buckler’ means, ’that which goes around’, a very large shield to protect the whole body on 3 sides. The Lord gives full protection).   His Glory is also our protection/ rereward behind us.

Most likely it is referring to the large shield that protected on three sides and because we all have a north, south, east, and west direction to our person. He is also our re-reward, which is the protection for the fourth side, behind us, where unforeseen sudden attacks sometimes come.

Isaiah 52:12 the God of Israel shall be your Rear guard

and

Isaiah 58:8 the glory of the Lord shall be your Rear guard.

Just as the protection came after the ark of his presence –we are the ark of his presence today. Just as His presence protected them in the wilderness and at the Reed sea.

Isaiah 58:12 the Lord will go before you and the God of Israel will be your rearguard.

So who is the Lord in this verse?

There are 2 here The Lord and The God of Israel.

Is that the pre-incarnate Messiah? Is it Holy spirit? Is this an example of Echad as 1X1?

Is it likely referring to Messiah, who is the subject of the following verses from 13 in chapter 52 to the end of Chapter 53?

Image from Christian Inspirational Designs

In verse 15 when we call upon Him with our whole heart requiring Him [as a vital necessity] He promises to answer and declares I AM – anochi – who is with us in trouble.

Delivering us from trouble and in verse 16 with long life that is everlasting, eternal, lives, chaim in both realms.

And He will reveal to us and show us His full salvation. Salvation, meaning, rescue, deliver, bring us out deliver from bondage. Restore the broken fellowship, redeeming us by His life’s, (lives chaim), blood as His family His kin, and taking us to Himself as His challah.

https://www.minimannamoments.com/the-season-of-our-hiding/

It does not matter how ‘macho’ we are, or how independent we are, we are all His children and are required to be as little ones, it’s not a sign of weakness but of great, strong and enduring faith and trust.

For it is BY(X) and in Him, not of ourselves that none should boast. Will He find faith, (that faithfulness), on the earth when He returns?

Could this be what He will be looking for, the humility of the childlike faith?

Humility is akin to meekness, which has been inverted by modern definition to be associated with weakness, insipidity and ineffectiveness. When He said the meek shall inherit the earth, it is indicating to us that the contrary is Truth, as we misunderstood the concept of meekness, because it means exercising God’s strength, demonstrating power without undo harshness. He was the humble servant and did not use His power to rule over others but rather to serve, instead being the servant leader, yet not a ‘pushover.’

So let’s continue speaking, to give the Word a platform; with shalom, a place for our life to mature; and in meekness exercise God’s strength, demonstrating His power without undo harshness.

How to do the word – simply take scriptures that answer your need and read them out loud. Make it personal by reading it in the first person, with your name, or ‘I’ in the verse.

It’s up to us to make the Words of scripture personal, making it our own. We have to ‘own the Word’, by praying the words, for confession is made into salvation, deliverance, healing etc.

Some more examples will be posted on a separate page link below and have been a daily source of strength since compiling them many years ago.

Shavua Tov, Have a blessed week, you are greatly loved and don’t leave here without assurance of your salvation or without the joy of the Lord ENVELOPING you and the assurance that you are sealed to the day of redemption by the Blood of Messiah Jesus/Yeshua.

Not sure ..you can be…

Make certain Messiah Jesus/Yeshua is your Redeemer, Savior, Lord and soon returning King and that you have a personal relationship with Him.

It’s all about Life and Relationship, NOT Religion.

You are very precious in His sight.

SIMPLY SAY THE FOLLOWING MEANING IT FROM YOUR HEART..don’t delay one more minute, SAY IT RIGHT NOW…

Heavenly Father I come to you in the Name of Jesus/Yeshua asking for forgiveness of my sins for which I am truly sorry. I repent of them all and turn away from my past.

I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus/Yeshua is your Son and that He died on the cross at calvary to pay the price for my sin, so that I might be forgiven and have eternal life in the kingdom of Heaven. Father I believe that Jesus/Yeshua rose from the dead and I ask you to come into my life right now and be my personal Savior and Lord and I will worship you all the days of my life. Because your word is truth I say that I am now forgiven and born again and by faith I am washed clean with the blood of Jesus/Yeshua. Thank you that you have accepted me into your family in Jesus’/Yeshua’s name.
