THE REVEALING…

There is much talk these days of

the Apocalypse,

the end times

and end of days,

the rapture or catching away, (harpazo)

and all the various scenarios that go along with this particular subject.

As usual the post is offering some points of view which we may not have seen or thought about before. It is also providing food for thought and as always encouragement for everyone to research and check things out for ourselves.

Many events are being called apocalyptic or biblical in proportion, as it relates to floods, other unusual phenomena and extremes in nature. These could be either the result of human meddling, demonic interference, the hand of the Father and of course ‘natural earth events’, or a combination of all 4.

In Hebrew אַפּוֹקָלִיפּסָה apocalypse .

The word apocalypse comes from the Greek word apokalupsis.

It has two root words apo which means,

away or to remove,

and kalupsis which means a veil or covering.

Strong’s Hebrew: 1540. גָּלָה (galah)

— to uncover, remove

So Apocalypse

really means

the removing of the veil.

When something is removed, then something else that has been hidden, is revealed.

 It is a revelation of mysteries, things which lie beyond the ordinary range of human knowledge.

We use both the terms, Apocalypse and Apocalyptic.

An Apocalypse, in the terminology of early Jewish and Christian literature, is a revelation of hidden things given by God, to one of His chosen saints, or more often, the written account of such a revelation. The word is derived from the Greek ἀπōκάλυψις, “uncovering,” “disclosure“…

And therefore in simple terms it is a Revealing.

לְגַלוֹת   reveal גְּלָא verb, to reveal, gelah or gela.

Phonetic Spelling: (ghel-aw’)

בְּהִתְגַּלּ֥וֹת bə-hiṯ-gal-lō-wṯ in revealing

חושף   revealing

A definition of Revealing  is – allowing a look at, or an understanding of something inner or hidden.

It’s a secret, a mystery that is being revealed, demystified and made known.

(μυστηρίōυ ἀπōκάλυψις, “revealing of a mystery”

Strong’s Greek: 602. ἀποκάλυψις (apokalupsis) — an uncovering/revelation

Cognate: 602 apokálypsis – properly, uncovering (unveiling).See 601 (apokalyptō).. 602 /apokálypsis (“revelation, unveiling”) is principally used of the revelation of Jesus Christ (the Word), especially a particular (spiritual) manifestation of Christ (His will) previously unknown to the extent (because “veiled, covered”).

Disclosure:–appearing, coming, lighten, manifestation, be revealed, revelation. 

The Greek verb ἀπōκαλύπτειν is occasionally employed in the Septuagint to translate the Hebrew  גְּלָא (reveal); thus, of a secret,

 אוזן גְּלָא 

uncover the ear, Ozen

 עֵינַיִם גְּלָא 

uncover the eyes, Ayin

meaning reveal,

Hidden from sight with the promise of showing itself in the not too distant future…

We are curious as to what is behind the curtain?

What’s in the box?

What is in the package that is so enticingly gift-wrapped ?…

We want to know – to see and to understand…

The things shown to Daniel

and John

were sealed until the time of the end.

The time of the end of the age.

Is this the time to which it was referring? 

Jesus/Yeshua alluded to this in Luke 8:16-18 v.17

It does of course refer to disobedient and sinful behavior that will be exposed on judgment day and also that the times of the end of the age were hidden from view; the emphasis is on, what has not been KNOWN, possibly meaning that all spiritual mysteries will be revealed?

These are the things pertaining to the second coming and end times with many variations and explanations floating around.

We could call ourselves apocalyptic believers, as we are having truth revealed to us.

However we should remember that with great knowledge comes great responsibility.

To whom much is given, much is required.

That means we must walk in the light of the fulness of that which we have had revealed to us. 

In the scripture the final book of the Re-New-ed Covenant and of the whole Bible is

Revelation, Chizayon,

הִתגַלוּ

This is the revealing, and the revelation of revelation, is the opening of the vision concerning the end of this age.

Chizayon/Revelation, or the revealing, was Messiah Yeshua/Jesus, revealing to John things which are to come,

and back then on the island of Patmos of course it was thousands of years in the future.

Definitions: Revelation is the revealing or disclosing of some form of truth or knowledge through communication with a deity or other supernatural entity.

A surprising and previously unknown fact, especially one that is made known in a dramatic way. The divine or supernatural disclosure to humans of something relating to human existence or the world. Disclosure, announcement.

חָזוֹן Chazown is the Hebrew word for vision from chazah; 2372; a sight (mentally), i.e. a dream, revelation, or oracle:–vision

Strongs’s #2377: chazown  

(pronounced khaw-ZONE) חָזוֹן

Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance: Hebrew 2377. חָזוֹן chazon 

לְגַלוֹת discover/reveal

According to scripture, this is not the end of the world; in terms of everything being completely destroyed, where 1 Peter describes the earth’s final cleansing and apparently is not the same event.

Revelation tells us that a new heaven and a new earth will be created subsequently.

It is however, the ‘end of the age’. Some call it the ‘church age’ or ‘the age of grace’ or the ‘6 thousandth year.” Ushering in a 1000 year period/age/reign of Messiah Yeshua. Which according to scripture, we will be together with Him; however will that be on the earth, or in heaven?

The Hebrew Talmud divides 6000 years of human history/olam hazeh into 3×2000 year epochs.

The first 2000 is from the time of the impartation of the neshamah /soul into Adam until Abrahams Calling.

The second epoch of 2000 years is from Abraham to the destruction of the 2nd Temple.

The third is the time of the Messiah, and refers to when the Messiah ‘could appear’, (we believe that was 2000+ years ago); before establishing Zions kingdom.

Immediately before His appearance is a time of testing in which the world will undergo various forms of tribulation called

or

Also

There are elements to both the time of Jacob’s/Israel’s trouble

and footsteps of Messiah

that are somewhat confusing, often due to mistranslations, which then obviously result in mis-interpretation. Romans 11:26 agrees with the verse in Jeremiah that ‘yet out of it he is saved’. When Messiah Yeshua returns to Jerusalem/Zion all Israel will be saved.

Some say the 

             will last for 70 years, with the last 7 being the time of Jacob’s Trouble.

Sometimes referred to as 

because it will be the worst part of the whole time, when catastrophes occur worldwide.

The very end of the 7 years being the Day of the Lord.    Yom YHVH.  

Which will be the judgment of the rebellious world system and the outpouring of God’s wrath. Is 2:19. The Lord will shake the earth. Rev. 6:17; Mal. 4:1. After which, the Messianic kingdom will be established.

Interesting to note that a 70 year period has just been completed in 2018, which began in 1948, when Israel became a nation.

The yissurim shel ahavah,

the troubles of love,

referring to the birthing of a child;

is equivalent to the transition time and struggle a new-born experiences when exiting the womb into the harsh light of day. It will be similar to the transition between this world and the Messianic world to come, that is imminent!

The time immediately prior to Messiahs arrival is sometimes called IKVOT MESHICHA,

the time when footsteps of the Messiah can be heard.

This is God’s appointed time

for the final Messianic redemption and the closing of the

Many believe the order of events will be connected to the annual Feasts/Appointed Times. That as Jesus/Yeshua has fulfilled the Spring Feasts at His first Coming, He will in turn, fulfill the Fall/Autumn Feasts in His Second Coming. (Fall/Autumn = September/October)

Believers in Yeshua/Jesus refer to the time just prior to His Second Coming, in which He will judge the nations and we believe He will establish His kingdom in Jerusalem?

No one knows the exact time when the Messiah will appear. However according to traditional Jewish sources in the Midrash Tehilim 9:2 Pesachim 54b; there are some hints. An example is that 1000 years = 1 day as in the 6 days of creation. 2Pet. 3:8.

God rested on the seventh day and it’s representative of the genesis of the great Messianic Sabbath Rest. This would indicate this age could not go further than 6000 years. So as the Hebrew calendar indicates, we are at the end of the 6th day, the 6th millennium, and close to the ‘Erev Shabbat’ of the world. And to expect the soon arrival of Messiah Yeshua.

For many years, the pre-tribulation rapture of the believers has been taught; and all the different scenarios have been presented by successive preachers and teachers from pre, to mid, to post tribulation rapture etc.

So which is it???

Here presented are the scriptures and Jesus/Yeshua’s own words and a plea for each hungry soul to read the Word and study the scriptures for ourselves. It is not the aim of mmm to mislead, or argue, only to present the Word in truth as it written. We are limited in the New Testament, with the Hebrew text as most of the references are written in Greek, however there are scriptures in Daniel and other prophets that we can look at.

End of days – acharit hayamim 

2 Pet. 3:3; 2Thes. 2:2-4; 2Tim. 3:1-5.

Some say the birth-pangs are to last 70 years with Edom/Rome/Europe being the 1st wave of trouble including the holocaust and 2nd in the form of Arab/Israeli conflict. As per Jesus/Yeshua’s words in Matt. 24:25.

The climax of

is called the great Day of the Lord

which represents God’s wrath, poured out upon a rebellious world system.

The Messianic Kingdom

will be ushered in.

However there is another connection at the end, in the last pages of the New Testament, where the Apocalypse reveals a wedding.

A bride and a groom.

Look back at the ancient Hebrew wedding format procedure mentioned in previous posts.

After the wedding, which takes place after a long separation, and follows the betrothal agreement, it can be a time period of up to two years. (Note here that we are all familiar with the thousand years equaling a day).

The couple finally stand face to face – panim el panim,

And the veil is lifted from the bride to reveal her face to her groom.

Here is the apokalupsis.

The removing of the veil – the Apocalypse.

There is now symbolically, or otherwise, nothing separating them; and it is as the Scripture says, face to unveiled face.

1Cor. 13:12; Eph. 5:27; Rev. 13:1, 19:7–9.

One day, all veils will be removed, and we will see Him as He is, face to face unveiled.

Every person will face an Apocalypse of one sort or another. Whether salvation in the wedding marriage of the lamb, or the Apocalypse of judgment.

It is our place to remove any veils, so there is no more separation between Him and us. Nothing we are withholding from Him. And face to face to allow His touch to change us from glory to glory.

Jesus has won the victory in the spiritual realm over sin and death or sin-death. He has fulfilled His Torah promise, at Sinai, of (spiritually and physically) returning to Earth, reaching out to all His saints, Israelite and Goyim alike, restoring them to fellowship with the Father in a face-to-face meeting in His Shekinah, the glory-cloud of presence, which corresponds perfectly with Lk. 21 & Rev. 21.

There may be some repetition from previous posts in references to these important scriptures, however, the signs of the times all around us, should give us pause to reflect that we may indeed be the generation that sees the return of the King of Kings.

It is true to say that human nature is eager and wants to know the answers, reveal the secrets and unravel the mysteries and then when it is a little too close for comfort, we act like ostriches and brush off the possibility in cognitive dissonance and we really would rather not know. Because

and If we don’t know, then we don’t have to deal with it. Ignorance is bliss?? Sadly not so! Ignorance is no excuse, and not mentioning these issues will not make them go away!

The human tendency is to believe anything that comforts and deny what discomforts, so that unpleasant truths are simply ignored.

Forewarned is forearmed and being prepared with trimmed oil-lamps filled with Holy Spirit/Ruach HaKodesh, is the preferred posture for a believer, in a season of the Messianic Messiahs soon return.

The signs are those of Matt. 24 25 and Israel becoming a nation Deut. 4:27 and Jer. 30:1-3; then a coming messiah of evil, (one out of harmony with God), will appear and offer a peace treaty for the middle east; but when they say peace and safety, (confirmed covenant), then sudden destruction will come upon them as labour pains on a pregnant woman, (time of Jacobs trouble) and they will not escape, 1Thes. 5:3.

This is the significance of the extraordinary, unprescedented, and cataclysmic world events, which we are seeing almost every day.

Some scriptural traits of this generation are, Chutzpah/ audacity and a lack of gratitude/hakarat ha-tov. The rest of humanity’s traits in the last days are listed in 2 Tim 3:1-5.

So let’s pull our heads out of the proverbial sand and in faith, see what the Scriptures are actually telling us. 

One thing we know is that it is NOT to make us fearful, for there is no fear in the perfect love of God and Jesus/Yeshua said in Mat. 24:25,25. See, I have told you ahead of time.  And for good reason. Love is truth.

For also in John 17:15a, Jesus/Yeshua even prayed for the opposite of what many say today: I do not pray that You should take them out of [or rapture/remove them from] the world.

One thing we need to realize is that, before the events described in revelation are manifested in our midst, we need to reread the words of Jesus Himself and see what He said, which are recorded in

Mat. 24:23–28, 37–41; 17:26–37. Mat:24:39: And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

So here, Many people were taken by surprise was it because they didn’t/wouldn’t listen laughed at him and thought he was crazy?

Mat:24:38: For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

Mat:24:39: And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 

M‘t:24:40: Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 
M’t:24:41: Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 

The days of Noe/Noah were a time of judgment so this will be similar.

If we as believers have judged ourselves, (as we should before each time we take the bread and wine of covenant); we have nothing to be concerned about, and should be looking up. For when we see all of these things coming to pass, it is in fact encouragement, for those looking for His coming.

A point that should be made here, is that, although Noah/Noe and family entered the ark and were saved from the judgment of the flood waters; (this is a picture of believer being in Jesus/Yeshua, and being saved from judgment); they were not taken out of the world but were equipped to go through it !

The wicked were the ones removed off the earth!

Similar with Lot, he was escorted out of the city by angels and by that, he and his daughters were saved, they were not taken out of the earth. However the wicked were removed of the face of it by fire.

Both water and fire are cleansing agents.

Matthew 24:21-31 (NIV) 
21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again. 22 If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.

The times are shortened because of the elect which means the elect are still on earth? Hmmmm!

We are equipped by Jesus through His indwelling Ruach haKodesh/Holy Spirit to be able to endure to the end and if it is in His plan, to be able to go through the times of tribulation. He said, ‘In this world you will have tribulation’.

23 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘There he is!’ do not believe it. 24 For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect—if that were possible. 25 See, I have told you ahead of time.  

He warned us not to be deceived by any means.

The modern computer technology will very possibly be a vehicle used as a means of delivering false signs and wonders.

To quote a well known authors statement that:

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

Maybe it has some pertinent meaning here. The antichrist, false prophet and beast may well use forbidden witchcraft/sorcery/magic, together with the aid of demonic spiritual power, used in connection with technologies such as laser imaging. These would provide abilities to project what looks like real manifestations into the skies, simulating visions of the return of Messiah Jesus or other spiritual phenomena.

What is the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?

We ask the very same questions that the disciples asked Him back then, 2000+ years ago, and His answers are the same to us as they were to those disciples…

Conclusion.. like Yeshua/Jesus, IS coming soon…!

Please, don’t leave this page until..

you are safe in the ark Messiah provided..

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

You are greatly loved and precious in His sight.

Its all about Life and Relationship, not Religion.

NOT SURE? YOU CAN BE..

SAY THE FOLLOWING FROM YOUR HEART 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. Amen.

Topsy-Turvey In An Ambigram Matrix?

Was Jesus/Yeshua An Upside-Down King?

He was everything no one expected!

He was the inversion and opposite of the Messiah desired by the people who were looking for change and for freedom from the Roman Empire, under whose shadow He was born.

He came to turn the world right side up; to declare the kingdom of the heavens is both at hand/close and within us. (Luke 17:21)

Confirming John’s message of Mt. 3:1-2 in Mt. 10:7 & Mk. 1:15And to show us we have been looking at things from the wrong perspective.

Those who have eyes to see Matt. 13:9-16.

Mark 4:9; Then Jesus said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.”

Mark 8:18; Having eyes do you not see, and having ears do you not hear? … “Hear this, O foolish and senseless people, who have eyes, but see not, who have ears, but  hear not.

Matt. 13:16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear. 

In today’s language, He may have used the word dimension, in describing the Kingdom of the Heavens.

For He said, John 18:36; My kingdom is NOT of this world! And He came to show us the WAY to inherit that kingdom!

He was not the Warrior King but the Servant of all and the Redeemer of mankind who came to pay the ultimate price for sin…Rom. 6:23; Prov.10:16.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Messiah Yeshua / Christ Jesus our Lord. 

He came to destroy the works of the devil…

For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. 1 John 3:8;

and

to restore our relationship with the Father and mandate us with the ministry of reconciliation and…

 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

Col. 1:20

..He was born to turn the world upside down!

According to John 10:10,

The works of the devil include:

the thief cometh not, but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy everything of Father’s creation; by perverting, dis-orientating, flipping, mirroring, inverting, turning upside down, back to front, opposite, twisting and confusing.

For he is a deceiver and a liar from the beginning and the father of lies. John 8:44“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” Isaiah lamented. “Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!” (Isaiah 5:20-21).

The hallmarks of the Upside-Down World are:

truths changed to lies;

material things exalted above the God who made them;

plain, clear, scriptural understanding scorned

and irrational human reasoning worshiped.

The Apostle Paul put it this way: ‘Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools’ (v. 22).We really have a skewed image of the world we live in, (courtesy of the devil.) 

for deception is his M.O.Unless we view it with our spiritual eyes, hence:

Eph. 1:8 The eyes of your understanding/heart being enlightened.

To see ourselves as God sees us..

Which cannot happen unless we are born again.

Pause and think for a moment….. We come into this world through the matrix, the womb…

Remember Matrix definition is – something within or from which something else originates, develops, or takes form in the womb, an environment or material in which something develops; a surrounding medium or structure: the set of conditions that provides a system in which something grows or develops:

Concordance Strong’s Hebrew: 7358.

רָ֫חֶם (rechem) — womb matrix. From racham; the womb (compare racham) — matrix, womb. see HEBREW racham. 

From Latin, meaning “breeding female,”

At the time of translation, matrix meant womb in English. Ex. 13:12

Exactly how do we enter?

Through the womb

UPSIDE DOWN

through water and blood.

Through the breaking of waters gushing out and through blood in a downward direction bringing with it birth, a new life.

As He died on the cross, the skin of His side was broken, the water and blood gushed downward out from Jesus/Yeshua’s body. His Life was in The Blood poured out and brought with it a RE NEWed Life. Streaming in a downward direction, before turning and raising upwards in Resurrection life.

In Ps. 51:5, the Scriptures say that we are conceived and born in sin and if we are not converted we cannot see the kingdom of heaven. John 3:3-8

We must be turned the other way up; right side up, by being born again of water and of the spirit of God.

We are spiritually washed in His blood to erase the sin.

Then we can ascend to the kingdom of the heavens.

The way up is first down.

If we are to ascend to the heavenlies we must first get back to basics.

There is no quick fix.

This life is a PROCESS for the soul /spirit to grow and mature, to BECOME His disciple. At the start, we die – to self. Mark 4:28 is the process

Always remembering as the NUN, we must remain attached to the root. For it’s the root that supports us, it’s the Yod, source of life.. we are planted in,(grafted into), the MEM! By the work of the YOD, the HAND, we begin to become His Disciple.

We began upside down, the Way the truth and the life is to be converted.

And go upwards, just like Jesus/Yeshua and the blade. 

For this to happen

First the eyes of our soul need to be opened.

Second the eyes of our understanding need to be enlightened.

For I was blind but now I see.

Opening the eyes of the soul, to receive His Words of Life which are spiritual food, Manna to the hungry.

Psalm 146: 7-9; Isaiah 24:1 –6; the way of the wicked he turns upside down.

The enemies kingdom is perverted, inverted and reversed and it’s why it all back to front and topsy turvey.

This is why the disciples were spoken of as those who’ve turned the world upside down. Acts 17:6

The Apostle Paul recorded a scathing rebuke that has shown itself to be remarkably prophetic: He described scholars and academics “Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever” (Romans 1:25).

The devil’s Upside-Down thinking and reasoning is everywhere on display. He is a master at cloaking his motives, dressing up his destructive ambitions, making them appear noble and upright. “Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light,” Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 11:14.

However, when his lies are compared against the right-side-up revelation in Scripture, the truth becomes clear.

Everything the world, the flesh and the devil have to offer, is a fake, a faxcimile, a copy of the real thing. Whether happiness, success, etc. etc. It’s his version of it and everything is distorted and rooted in a lie. He cannot create, so he takes the things of God and perverts them, twists them. It is all a distortion of reality, a complete illusion and fabrication, designed to deceive.

We are in this world not of it. The devil is the ‘god’, of this world and unless we are freed through new birth by Ruach haKodesh; we are his slaves and will remain so; trapped in the ‘prison’ after ‘entering the matrix’.

Through Jesus/Yeshua, the Father made a WAY of escape to know the TRUTH that leads to eternal LIFE and freedom from this prison. The choice is ours.

Strong’s Greek: 4151. πνεῦμα (pneuma) wind, spirit

 הַקֹּדֶשׁ     רוּחַ

ruach hakodesh 

(also transliterated ruaḥ ha-qodesh)

Our hope is in the Word of God, which promises that Jesus Christ /Messiah Yeshua, will return and set this world right-side up. The Apostle Peter called this “the times of refreshing” and “the times of restitution of all things” (Acts 3:19-21). Jesus.Yeshua Himself, called it “the regeneration” (Matthew 19:28) We must be renewed and turned upside down; which is why its called conversion.

Converted from the wrong way to the RIGHT WAY.

Before Jesus/Yeshua ascended to heaven the scripture record that He went into hell, to the ‘pit’ – then to the ‘palace’. Just like His Old Testament ‘type’, Joseph.

Jesus/Yeshua went through a full physical life. He didn’t skip the hard parts; He learned obedience by the things He suffered.

Heb. 5:8-10 Although he was a son, [Jesus] learned obedience through what he suffered. And being made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him, being designated by God a high priest after the order of Melchi-zedek.

   https://www.minimannamoments.com/why-was-the-priest-in-the-water-conclusion-of-the-mystery/

 

The suffering Jesus/Yeshua endured during His earthy life was needed in order to learn obedience. Jesus’/Yeshua’s suffering made Him fully empathetic with the sufferings and struggles of the world, things that we endure even today. Jesus’/Yeshuas suffering qualified Him to be the perfect High Priest of the whole world, once and for all. Jesus/Yeshua experienced the full spectrum of human suffering and remained fully obedient without sinning, which solidified His qualification to be our forever High Priest. Heb. 2:9-10

As believers in Jesus Christ/Messiah Yeshua, the scriptures prepare us that we will experience suffering. When we do, it is important that we stay surrendered to God and obedient to Him. Thanks to Yeshua /Jesus’ human experience, we now have a High Priest who understands every situation we walk through.

He did not gain the victory by having it easy in the lap of luxury!

Yeshua /Jesus did not have to learn obedience as the Son of God, but being fully God and fully man, He did have to learn obedience as the Son of Man.

The original Greek word for suffered, being used in this passage is most commonly used, to discuss going through difficult situations like persecution, (1 Thess. 2:14; 1 Pet. 3:12) or disease (Mk. 5:26).  Inherent in its meaning, is also a positive transformation of the sufferer due to the struggles he has walked through (2 Cor. 1:3–9; Rom. 5:3).

Jesus/Yeshua, chose to endure suffering because this was God’s will for Him while He was on earth. Jesus/Yeshua the man was “made perfect” by His suffering. In this situation, the word “perfect” means “complete.” 

Yeshua /Jesus walked through every struggle that we face; He is no stranger to suffering. Yeshua /Jesus remained obedient to God, perfectly fulfilling the Old Testament Law and offering Himself as the spotless, sacrificial atonement for our sins. Because of this, when we put our faith in Him, we are saved from sin, and we are able to approach Him in confidence, knowing we will find His mercy and grace. 

When He set His face like flint towards Jerusalem. Luke 9:53; Knowing what was ahead, this is counting the true cost of discipleship in following Him for ‘Jerusalem’ is our goal also! Taking up our cross.

There are some teachings that say because He suffered, we don’t have to; that because He fasted, we don’t need to; however Yeshua/ Jesus own words are clearly contrary to this, saying, not if, but.. When you fast… Matt. 6:16,17

In this world you will be objects of hatred by all people on account of my name John 16:33 doesn’t sound like a happy time!

He who endures to the end… Mt. 24:13 and we are to do just that. Mt. 10:38 and anyone who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me. Luke 14:27, And whoever does not carry his cross and follow Me cannot be My disciple. Luke 9 :23 then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.

Matt 16:24-26 Take Up Your Cross and Follow Jesus – Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it.

The Christian life is not the mossy track seen through rose colored specs, it’s a rocky climb up a high mountain.

We’ve been fed many misconceptions, for when its tough we are accused of being in sin or error! Prosperity and abundant wealth with all its accoutrements, is not a guaranteed sign that someone is truly blessed by God in the truest sense of the word. It’s all a matter of what you think and believe the blessing of God really is, neither of which will change Truth.

We were never promised a life of ease but He gave us a helper to get us through it.

One day at a time.

When it’s tough, we have a tendency moan and complain. Our flesh thinks we are missing out on what others have, as they seem to be so blessed! The life of self denial, sacrifice and discipline; of laying down our own goals and dreams, is not the sermon that those who love to have their ears tickled want to hear.

The Pharisees were the ones who taught that worldly wealth and prosperity was the result of those who were godly. It’s the same promise of the prosperity gospel of today.

We should remember Yeshua/Jesus said in Mark 8:36; For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Consider the butterfly, a creature often used as symbolic of the metamorphic change that takes place a new believers life.

From a worm like caterpillar, to a beautiful winged creature.

Sadly, this too is used as a symbol by those following the adversary, the hater of our souls, for their plans of mind control.

(Space does not permit examples however a web search reveals sinister and nefarious plans for the same goal the devil has always had; that we can become like God through transmutation from one form to another. That of ‘god-like beings’ and enhanced by genetic manipulation together with the mixing of Nephillim DNA. The co-mingling, like the experience of Nimród in Genesis 10:8 who ‘began to become..’ and others also after the flood.)

The search for any such ancient DNA, seems now to be in full force through heritage sites, such as 23 and me, and the unusual increase at law enforcement checkpoints, where officers have been charged with taking similar information. Those in opposition to the Kingdom of Heaven, are looking for something and are amassing a databank of citizens genetic makeup.

(Sounds crazy? Again a web search will reveal things that we have not even dreamed about! The devil is busy for he knows his time is short).

You will see, along with those who have eyes to see, and ears to hear, that butterflies, the monarch in particular, as part of logos on promotional materials. Movies and music videos and advertising et cetera et cetera. Their agendas are hidden in plain site. E.g.The monarch is a symbol used by occult, (occult means Hidden,) based societies and groups who are anti/against Jesus Christ and are following the devils lies; in basically the same as he did in Genesis; that ye shall be as ‘gods’ and not die!

The spirit of man ascends. Ecclesiastes 3:21. The beast goes down, using that same lie he did in the begining.

This information is NOT to cause fear but to inspire courage, so we are not taken by surprise. We need to be alert, ready and on guard for our enemy is..1Pet.5:8

and remember that we with Titus in 2:13 are in this season looking for the blessed hope..

 and manifestation of the glory!

 

However, returning to observe the butterfly cycle. From the egg

producing a worm-like, crawling caterpillar;

who crawls through it’s short life on the ground like the serpent; who was cursed, consuming all in its path.

Eating the dust of the ground of which we are all formed!

One day it climbs a tree and turns itself upside down, hanging on a tree.

It is ready to die and become something else entirely. (Has a familiar ring to it!) The caterpillar forms a protective hard shell around its body. Called a chrysalis and in that tomb like structure it dies to one form.

This structure resembles the tight hard lacquered strips of cloth used in burial and in swaddling clothes at birth! Familiar?

Is. 41:14 Jacob was called a worm.

Click link below for the worm that preached the gospel

https://www.minimannamoments.com/the-secret-of-how-a-worm-preached-the-gospel/

Only in dying to self as a worm form can it undergo the metamorphosis, in a process of change, beginning to become, another creature. And when metamorphosis is completed a new being emerges, it is born-again from the shroud of death.

The chrysalis this new creation does not in any way resemble its former self.For behold all things are become new. 2Cor.5:17

It will never have to crawl again for it now has wings and will soar upwards no longer earthbound.

It’s prison door is open and it is free to ascend, and live in the image that the creator planned, the One who gave it the breath/ruach of life, chaim.

And so are we to become the beautiful new creation in Jesus/yeshua the creatures we were always meant and designed to be.

There is a mystery revealed within.

We are given life by father, the butterfly gives life to the caterpillar and as it crawls not knowing its purpose or destiny. Still earth bound and unaware of why it was born at all; we are like that too. We think like a caterpillar, crawling along, consuming, going somewhere and thinking caterpillar thoughts. And see only what is right ahead, going, working, eating, sleeping in a continual cycle.

Then the miracle happens and the earth-bound life is terminated and for us the metamorphosis begins. From being first, born as earthly creatures upside down; now we are born again by His spirit pheuma/ruach into new creatures right side up in Him. Freed from the prison of the earthbound matrix, we are turned right side up becoming children of Heaven.Eph. 2:76 Made to dwell in and abide in the heavenly realms with Him leaving behind everything that held us earthbound everything of the prison that tied us to the world, to the things of the flesh and to sin.

We are turned right side up and headed in the right direction out of the ambigram matrix into the eternal light of heavens glory/ the symbolic dwelling place of the righteous. Where He has raised us up with Him and we are..

Eph. 4:22, 23; Gal. 2:20; 2Cor. 5:17; Rom. 6:4-8;

Thank the Father in Yeshua’s/Jesus’ Name, that according to Jn. 5:24 and 1Jn. 3:14; We have passed from death to life..

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed

from

The life/death ambigram is a

 typographical design consisting of text modified in such a way that it can be read in multiple orientations, as in mirror image words that have been flipped, mirrored, inverted, turned upside down! 

Which WAY will we let it read?

Death to Life or Life to Death?

We will go one WAY or the other – Life or Death –

choose this day..and choose LIFE!

Shalom!

NOT SURE? YOU CAN BE..

SAY THE FOLLOWING FROM YOUR HEART RIGHT NOW…

Heavenly Father I come to you in the Name of Jesus 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 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 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. Thank you that you have accepted me into your family in Jesus’ name. Amen.

A Mysterious Broken Vav, A Spear And A Bone?…

The genealogy of the High Priests was focused on in previous posts…

High Priest in Hebrew: כהן גדול – kohen gadol;

With definite article:  ha’kohen ha’gadol,

                              the high priest;

In Aramaic: kahana rabba.

Recall that the High Priests belonged to the Jewish priestly families and traced their paternal line back to Aaron.  He was the elder brother of Moses, through Zadok, a leading priest at the time of David and Solomon.This tradition came to an end in the 2nd century BC during the rule of the Hasmoneans, when the position was occupied by other priestly families unrelated to Zadok.

Even though Aaron was the first High Priest mentioned in the Book of Exodus, the legendary passage revealed the first man who assumed the title of High Priest of God was Enoch. He was succeeded by Methuselah, Lamech, Noah, Shem, (or Melchi zedek), Abraham, Isaac and Levi.

These priests are referred to as ‘descendants of Aaron,’ in the biblical traditions drawn upon by the writer of Chronicles. Aaron had 4 sons:  Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.However, Nadab and Abihu died before Aaron (incident of offering strange fire); so only Eleazar and Ithamar had sons. Chronicles records, one priest, Zadok, from Eleazar’s descendants and another priest, Ahimelech, from Ithamar’s descendants, were designated by King David to help create the various priestly work groups.

Aaron received from the Lord the promise of priesthood, it meant his children and their descendants would be part of the Levite priestly class called the Kohanim.

At the time his grandson Phineas had already been born, which meant he did not automatically receive the honor of Kohanim; and possibly also due to the fact that Phineas’s father, Eleazar, had a wife who was a Gentile. Exodus 6:25. She was a daughter of Jethro, a former Midianite priest called Putiel.

With these facts in mind, this post is connected to Aaron’s grandson, Phineas.

Phineas performed a very serious act during the rebellion at Baal Peor recorded in Numbers 25:10 – 30:1.

He killed a Prince of the tribe of Simeon, Zimri, (son of Zurishaddai, called Shelumiel;) because Zimri was engaged in rampant immorality with Cozbi a princess of Midian.

Those that were following Zimri’s leadership, as head of the tribe of Simeon, were the ones that partook the most in the sin of their leader.

Because of this blatant rebellion against Torah, a plague broke out amongst the people and 24,000 people died from this terrible disobedience.

If it was not for the zealous and righteous anger of Phineas, perhaps the entire tribe of Simeon would have been destroyed.

 The plague affecting Israel was stopped by God due to Phineas’ zeal.

https://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/num/25/11/t_conc_142011

25:11  פִּֽינְחָס בֶּן־אֶלְעָזָר בֶּן־אַהֲרֹן הַכֹּהֵן הֵשִׁיב אֶת־חֲמָתִי מֵעַל בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּקַנְאֹו אֶת־קִנְאָתִי בְּתֹוכָם וְלֹא־כִלִּיתִי אֶת־בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּקִנְאָתִֽי׃

קִנְאָה –  qin’ah – in my jealousy.

It took something to kill a family member, from one of the 12 tribes, and he would have had to count the cost. Here is another example of the sacrifice of the lives of the few for the many.

Phineas took a spear (the instrument by which sin was judged/death) and went into the tent and killed both the Zimri, his Israelite relative and his mistress.

Following this righteous act showing zeal for his God, the Lord rewarded him by making him a Kohen, Priest and promised him a covenant of peace.

He blessed him for his action because his heart motive was truly out of concern to stop any further deaths of the children of Israel that had been caused by these two individuals.

There is a spiritual principle here with this action, showing how to stop the plague of death, which is the consequences of sin.

This story tells us that the plague was not going to stop until someone paid with their life for Israel’s sins. In this case, we discover that it was the leaders of the rebellion that had to die to save the sins of their brothers.

Jesus/Yeshua did the same for us. Did He not take upon Himself the sin of all the people, shouldering all of it Himself?Was He not also thrust with a spear causing the life-giving water and blood to flow for all mankind?

(Spear, the instrument by which sin was judged and His death confirmed!)

Was not the plague of the law of sin and death destroyed the second He breathed His last?  

It is Finished!

Behold I am giving to him my covenant of peace.Hineni noten lo et-beriti shalom.

Hebrew word for covenant is Berit

(which is also a popular Norwegian/Scandanavian name)

The Hebrew word berit, is most often used to express the idea of covenant, and originally meant a shackle or chain.Later it came to mean any form of binding agreement. The covenant in the Biblical contexts combines God’s free offer of a special relationship and the people’s willing response in faith by agreeing to take the obligation to worship and obey only this God, Yahweh.

This was a further promised for his descendants, as a covenant of a perpetual priesthood, brit kehunat olam;(because he had been zealous for his God and made kafar/ atonement for all of Israel.)

Here it would appear, is a clear type of Yeshua/Jesus the Messiah and His Greater Priesthood; those of whom He is First-Fruit.

The copying of scrolls was the only way to reproduce the Torah and it was critical the scribes made certain to keep the Scriptures unaltered over the generations since Moses. 

Because of this there are strict guidelines concerning the writing of the Scriptures.

It is called, ‘Soferut Laws for Sefrei Torah’.

Writing Torah requires that each letter to be well-formed in the Hebrew script. No letters must touch other letters.

None can be badly formed, illegible or broken!

Here is the mystery of the broken VAV. 

In the ancient scrolls, Numbers 25:12, there is an exception to this rule.

It concerns only the Hebrew letter VAV.

This letter is part of the word Shalom

as it is normally written but here it is like this.. (m o l sha – in the Hebrew letters reading from r to l.)

Recall the Pardes of the last post and the levels of understanding in the Scriptures; like the layers of an onion.

Peshat- literal- the plain meaning – Pinchas righteous indignation the census and the holy days.

Remez – just beyond the literal = God’s character = a God of Salvation Redemption = Hidden glimpses of promised Messiah – broken VAV and in the 7 Appointed times of the year – moedim = application for us in our lives today – to be on fire for Him zealous in our love.

DRASH –to seek deeper by comparison- anomalies such as Enlarged letters e.g. broken vav small yod and enlarged nun– symbolism.

SOD further research e.g.– Dead sea scrolls and Gematria numbers equaling the value of each letter and torah code.

And look at this broken VAV on a SOD (Mystery) level. 

This broken VAV is a picture of the broken-ness of the Messiah for our ultimate deliverance, our salvation.

How is this possible as Jesus/Yeshua never had a broken bone in His body?

How was He broken for us?

Here the letter vav represents the number of man, six, and the broken vav represents a man that is broken.

In this verse, (pasuk), the man has been broken for the sake of a covenant of peace that brought atonement to Israel, a clear picture of Messiah Yeshua and His ultimate deliverance and restoration for us.

The ‘broken word’ shalom, can also be read as  שָׁלֵם – shalem.

(Phonetic spelling – shaw-lame)

Meaning COMPLETE, which indicates that the covenant is one of finality, perfection and completion.Repairer of the breach.

Restorer – bringing complete reconciliation to the broken relationship between God and man,

the broken covenant renewed,

He came to heal the broken hearted.He came to heal the broken in spirit those who have been crushed by the serpent, whose head He came to crush.When we think of His brokenness as He told us to do in remembrance of Him, at the breaking of bread.He says it in His own words this is My Body, BROKEN for you. He is the Bread of Heaven and of Life.

Manna = the pieces that are made at the breaking, it’s the spiritual connecting of each of us into one body of believers. One New Man.

We, as Messianic believers, understand that the promise to Phineas. It was a clear fore-telling of the Glory of the Greater Priesthood of Yeshua/Jesus, after the Order of Melchi-zedek, indestructible and everlasting.

The glory which is REVEALED to those who the Father has called. The same resurrection glory that raised Yeshua/Jesus from the dead WILL quicken our mortal bodies and make us alive in Him.

The broken vav promises us that His is restored.

Remembering from a previous Post that the vav, (in the paleo hebrew alef bet), is the…

The nail, peg, hook, symbolizing joining together; making sure; becoming bound; nailed to.

The nail that secures!

It is written in the Hebrew Scriptures of Deut. 5:15 that the Lord made the heavens and the earth by the Zeroah.

So it was by the Zeroah that everything we see, the universe itself, came into existence.

Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee. Jer. 32:17

When He brought the Hebrews out of Egypt on Passover, with miracles and wonders it is written that He did so by the Zeroah; and concerning salvation, it is written that the Lord will make known His Zeroah and all the earth will see the salvation of God.

Isaiah 53 contains the prophecy of one who will be wounded and crushed/BROKEN for our sins who will die for our judgment and who by His death will bring us healing life and redemption.

The ancient rabbis identified this one as the Messiah.

The opening verse of the chapter Isaiah 53, ‘who has believed our report and to whom has the Zeroah of the Lord been REVEALED?‘

The Zeroah is the one who dies for our sins and it is also the BONE of a LAMB which is the most mysterious object on the Passover table.

click link  below for more on Seder Plate
 https://www.minimannamoments.com/midweek-mannabite-secrets-of-the-seder-plate/

The death of the Lamb would be the death of Messiah and connects back to Isaiah 53. Zeroah however, was also there at creation because the Zeroah is the power of God, that which accomplishes the will of God is the arm/Zeroah of the Almighty.The first letter of Zeroah is Z – In Hebrew, Zayin.

Zayin and the Crownlets: Zayin is the 7th letter. The pictograph for Zayin looks like a sword. In the classical script the Vav on its head there is a large crown! There are 3 marks on the top of the letter Zayin. 8 hebrew letters are given this special mark by attaching to them 3 crownlets or ‘tagin’.The mystery of the ZAYIN is that its considered a crowned VAV. In the same way the VAV represents ‘Yashar’ – a straight line from God to man- so ZAYIN represents ‘or chozer’ or ‘returning light’. It is in itself a paradox meaning both ‘weapon/sword’ yet derives its root from a word meaning ‘nourishment/sustenance’. The word for war milchamah contains the word lechem/bread. Sometimes war = fighting for survival and therefore able to find food and be nourished.

They are collectively called ‘sha’atnezgets’ letters. Some sages comment that they are small zaynin (swords) and function as spiritual weapons e.g.in Ps.91

Zayin is the Crowned Man (Yeshua/Jesus) equipped with the Sword of Holy Spirit/Ruach HaKodesh. It is not hard to see that, since VAV represents MAN and ZAYIN is the crowned VAV (that is the Crowned Man), it is clear that ZAYIN represents Messiah Yeshua, the true King of the Jews while Zayin also represents a sword = the Word of God and Holy Spirit.

And here is another paradox, the arm of the Almighty, who was witnessed as weak, BROKEN and dying on a cross – was the manifested love of God and there is no greater power than that – dying to self that we might find life.

If we have ever dropped anything on the floor and seen it shattered into a million pieces, we know that there is no hope of ever putting it back together. Even if we glue every bit, it would never be the same as it was before. Jesus/Yeshua is the great renewer. The first mention of the re-new-ed covenant was to Jeremiah in the Hebrew Scriptures, Jeremiah 31:31 – 34. Telling of the covenant that had been broken, so it would seem that the re-new-ed covenant is born of brokenness.

It exists because of brokenness and it was first spoken of in the days when the land of Israel lay in ruins in the wake of judgment.

It’s the covenant God made for those who had fallen from grace, a covenant for the broken.

The covenant is not just for Israel but is given to everyone and its nature is the same for all.All have sinned – all have BROKEN His precepts – we have all failed – all fallen and become BROKEN in someway.

So the re-new-ed covenant, is the covenant God gives to all who have sinned, all who have failed and fallen; and all who should have no hope of any covenant with God, those who don’t deserve it. It’s the covenant He makes with them regardless of what ever they have done and it has a very special power.

It is the power to put together that which is BROKEN.

The power of restoration and healing.

The power to pick up and bring together all the broken pieces of our lives.The covenant of the BROKEN –  the VAV – symbolizing joining together, making sure, becoming bound, nailed to. The nail that secures. Hosea 14:4 – 7; John 8:9 – 11

There is another mystery, a secret hidden in the translation and it can only be seen in the original language.

 John 19:23–24; 1John 3:16.

It’s in the question that says, ‘to whom has the ARM of the lord been REVEALED?’

Revealed in Hebrew is niglatah.MI HE’EMIN LISHMU’ATEINU UZERO’A HASHEM AL-MI NIGLATAH?

Who has believed our report and to whom is the arm of Hashem revealed?

Isaiah/YESHAYAH 53:1

53:1  מִי הֶאֱמִין לִשְׁמֻעָתֵנוּ וּזְרֹועַ יְהוָה עַל־מִי נִגְלָֽתָה׃

זְר֫וֹעַ  Strong’s Hebrew: 2220 zeroa arm shoulder     זְרוֹעַ     zerowa

Messiah Yeshua/Jesus is the ‘arm of the Lord’

These words open the 4th and last of Isaiah’s ‘Servant Songs’, 4 prophecies describing the “Eved Adonai”, the “Servant of Adonai”, Who suffers and dies.The Arm/Zeroah of The Lord is REVEALED to those open to seeing it, even right here.

The arm of The Lord is being revealed in this very question.

It’s in the word galah גָּלָה  

גָּלָה Strongs H1540 https://www.blueletterbible.org/lang/lexicon/lexicon.cfm?Strongs=H1540&t=KJV

גָּלָה gâlâh, gaw-law’; a primitive root; to denude (especially in a disgraceful sense); by implication, to exile (captives being usually stripped); figuratively, to reveal:— advertise, appear, bewray, bring, (carry, lead, go) captive (into captivity), depart, disclose, discover, exile, be gone, open, plainly, publish, remove, reveal, shamelessly, shew, surely, tell, uncover.

Gesenius’ Hebrew-Chaldee Lexicon.

Revealed is a translation of the Hebrew word niglatah but niglatah means much more than revealed. Niglatah means to be taken captive.

The KJV translates Strong’s H1540 in the following manner:

 uncover (34x), discover (29x),

 captive (28x), carry away (22x),

 reveal (16x), open (12x),

 captivity (11x), shew (9x),

 remove (6x), appear (3x),

So the arm/zeroah of the Lord, the power of God will be taken captive. The Messiah was taken into captivity, arrested he became a prisoner.Niglatah also means to put to shame/disgraced.

So the arm of the Lord will be put to shame and disgraced.

Messiah was put to shame mocked degraded and condemned as a blasphemer.And niglatah also means stripped, naked, exposed and laid back. So the arm of the Lord will be stripped, naked and exposed. So Messiah was stripped of His garments and exposed ‘naked’* on the cross.

(*The Hebrew understanding of naked means, to remove all clothing except a loin cloth.)

It is the most famous image in this world, that of one who has been taken captive, stripped, naked and exposed.

It’s the arm of the Lord revealed the power of the almighty. But how could the strongest power in existence be revealed in the death of a naked man on the cross?

That is the revelation of the arm of God the strongest force in the universe the power of the almighty the power of love.

Most religions teach that salvation comes from the one who needs to be saved, an arm reaching up to heaven.

Only one message is different – the Gospel.Salvation is just the opposite:

It’s an arm, the zeroah of the Lamb of God reaching down from heaven.

We need to stop struggling and striving to be good enough.

Stop seeking to save ourselves. We can’t, and we don’t have to.

Messiah is Heaven’s ARM reaching down to us.

In biblical prophecy, its the Zeroah, the Arm of God. Wherever we are, wherever we’re not, just grasp on to heaven’s arm and He will do the rest.Not only does this story tell us that in order to receive life more abundantly, you must first die to the flesh and take up our cross and follow Him, it also tells us how Father/Yahweh feels about people that are sold out and zealous for Him.

He loves people with zeal and passion, people that love what He loves and hate what He hates.

In the story of Phineas IS The REVEALING.  The Niglatah, the baring of God’s Holy Arm was personified as a type of Messiah in Phineas (priest) with His spear the instrument of his zeal to save his family the children (sheep) of Israel.The broken covenant symbolized by the broken VAV in shalom/peace was restored by His zeal as fulfilled in Yeshua as the sacrificial lamb on Passover, the Zeroah/arm of Pesach.

In the brokenness, due to the severing of the connection with His Father, when He said, ‘why have you forsaken Me’? Sin causes separation from God.

His substitutionary sacrifice was the restorer of the breach, (of the relationship that was breached/broken); and we are now reconciled to the Father and this IS the gospel message.

We are ministers of reconciliation telling of the promise of the Berit Shalom – His covenant of peace – which was there in the VAV, the nail, that secures and joins together that which was broken.He was broken that we may be made whole.

The Hebrew word ‘kanaw’ qana’ קָנָא means: zealous, jealous, competitive.

It carries with it the idea that no one can come between you and the one you love – jealous for God.Love is stronger than death – it’s the glue that holds everything together and is revealed… with

a broken vav,

a shank bone of a sacrificial lamb,

the zeroah arm of the Lord given in love,

for a covenant of peace,

with our High Priest after the order of Melchi-zedek,

Who is alone the One who can put everything back together.

His brokenness was not in His BONEs but

in a better WAY of TRUTH that leads to LIFE.

SAY THE FOLLOWING FROM YOUR HEART RIGHT NOW…Don’t put it off one more moment…

Heavenly Father I come to you in the Name of Jesus 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 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 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. Thank you that you have accepted me into your family in Jesus’ name. Amen.

You are now Born Again by the Holy Spirit of the Living God and you are part of the ever growing family of believers. You will never be the same again!

Mystery of Rechem – The Secret of Living Like Royalty

If we are to live like Royalty… first the

God of compassion – El Rachum – (Deut. 4:31)Tells us we must be born-again. John 3: 3– 8This is probably one of the most familiar verses along with John 3:16.

Messiah was talking with Nicodemus who was a leader of the Jewish people and would have known Torah/Tenach, the Old Testament.

(obviously, there was no new testament written at the time.)

Everything Messiah Jesus/Yeshua referred to was in Torah, the Hebrew Scriptures, which is what we call the Old Testament.

He told Nicodemus that to enter heaven, (the kingdom of the heavens)

malkut shamayim” שָׁמַיִם (shamayim)

mal•choot ha•sha•má•yim

One must be born again.

His response was probably what anyone would say, how is that possible??

Can a man enter his mother’s womb to be born when he is old? Obviously not!

However in Hebrew, the word for ‘womb’ gives us a fresh and beautifully significant picture that we may have missed.

(An earlier post referenced the Hebrew Letter Mem.) The word for WOMB, is Rechem, and it comes from the word Racham.Racham speaks of mercy, tender love and compassion.So, Racham also means womb as well as mercy and is used in the Word of God to speak of His mercy and love as in EL Rachum.

Here is a mystery revealed:

The love/ahav and mercy/racham of God/Adonai, is like a womb/rechem –

and this is the connection.

When a new life is being formed, the only real protection is in the womb.Each one of us have been here for around 9 months. It’s a place of nurturing, tenderness and development of the physical body, in preparation to exist and live within the Earth’s environment.

Every individual needs that or we would never have been born the first time. However Jesus/Yeshua told us…Similarly, the womb of the morning,  can also represent a new day/a new beginning; the day has a new birth wherein His Mercies are new every morning.It’s the Racham of Adonai. EL Rachum.

The deep compassion and tender love of EL Rachum.

This is the ‘secret womb’ that we can enter,

the hidden place, the Mem,

abiding in the womb/Rechem of His tender MERCY/RACHAM.

This is one of the secret places of the Most High.

It is this mercy, this rechem, the womb of His love that also tenderly keeps us all through our lives.Nurtures us, holds us and protects us from harm.

It’s an intriguing observation that during times of great stress, we instinctively curl up into the same fetal posture that we were, when in the womb!

It is by living/Abiding within that place/womb of mercy and love, that we grow; and are formed first into the child and then into the mature believer we were called to become.“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.”  Jeremiah 1:5

rechem. 1) womb. 1a) womb … Numbers 18:15: “Every thing that openeth the matrix in all flesh, which they bring … Jeremiah 1:5: “I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified …

From the Latin word for womb (in turn from mater or mother), a matrix is either the intercellular substance of a tissue, the material in which a fossil is embedded, or a mold from which a relief surface is made in printing or phonograph manufacturing. It’s mostly translated as “womb.”

The Latin word for mother is “mater” (or matr). A woman who was having a baby, became “matrix”. The word was then was used for “womb”. So Moses is telling the people to dedicate their firstborn to God.

The womb. To “open the matrix,” Exodus 13:12,15, means, to be the firstborn.

Jeremiah 1:5: “I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet”

Exodus 13:12: “unto the LORD all that openeth the matrix, and every firstling that cometh of a beast”
Exodus 13:15: “I sacrifice to the LORD all that openeth the matrix, being males; but all”
Exodus 34:19: “All that openeth the matrix is mine; and every firstling among thy cattle, whether ox or sheep,”
Numbers 3:12: “instead of all the firstborn that openeth the matrix among the children of Israel:”

Numbers 18:15: “Every thing that openeth the matrix in all flesh, which they bring unto the LORD,”

Here, He not only formed us, but within are also the plans He has for us to fulfill during our sojourn, passing through this life, in our temporary home, en route to the true life with Him.

Every birth requires a womb; that womb/our new birth. In His love/Ahava for the Racham of El Rachum, is the Rechem of our new birth.One of the 13 attributes of God’s is His Mercy, which was revealed after the sin of the Golden calf. Shelosh esret middot .

Desiring the sincere milk of the word.

Psalm 119:103 then as we partake of salvation through the new birth, we need nourishment to grow.

And what matters now is not what we once were but who we have become in Messiah.

We’ve heard it said you are what you eat, and while a baby is within the womb, the food/nourishment is provided through the mother.If we are to grow then we need to feed on him who birthed us the second time. And partake of Messiah as the heavenly bread of our new life as a baby newly born into His Kingdom.

We see a secret in the larvae of bees. What a larvae becomes depends on what it eats. If the larvae eats royal jelly, it becomes a Queen. This is the only way to become a Queen.

No royal jelly = no Queen!Amazingly, queen bees are genetically exactly identical to worker bees. But they’re fed a different diet from worker bees their whole lives, from the time they are tiny larvae, until the day they die.This different meal plan causes their physiology and behavior to develop completely differently from worker bees, despite the same genetic foundation. this transforming food with the aptly named substance, royal jelly.

Royal jelly is a protein-rich excretion from the glands of worker bees –think of it as a honey bee’s version of mother’s milk.While all larvae are fed royal jelly for the first three days, of life, larvae chosen by the worker bees to become queens are bathed in royal jelly in special,elongated ‘queen cells’ throughout their development.

(larvae drone worker bees)

After the larval stage is complete and the queen bee emerges,she is fed royal jelly throughout her life.

Nurse bees feed larvae destined to be workers not only royal jelly, which queen-destined larvae are fed, but also beebread, or processed pollen (seen here).Beebread contains p-coumaric acid, which alters gene expression and contributes to the honey bees’ developmental fate.

Beebread and honey contain p-coumaric acid, but royal jelly does not. Queens feed exclusively on royal jelly. Worker bees known as nurses feed the larvae according to the needs of the hive.

Worker bees tending to larvae

When female larvae are fed royal jelly, which is secreted by other bees, they develop into large-bodied, fertile queens. But most larvae eat beebread, a mixture of pollen and nectar. These larvae develop into smaller, sterile worker bees.

The shape of Bees bodies are not aerodynamically efficient  –  so every flight is a flight of faith! 

Strong’s Hebrew: 4438. מַלְכוּת (malkuth) — royalty, royal power…

מַלְכוּת noun feminine royalty, royal power, reign, kingdom

מַלְכוּת Phonetic Spelling: (mal-kooth’)

ROYAL. roi’-al: Either belonging to a king (kingdom) or having kingly power, dignity, authority,

Either belonging to a king (kingdom) or having kingly power, dignity, authority, etc. In Hebrew, the word is expressed by using different nouns in the gen. case (the “construct state”).

They are:

(1) melekh, “king”: “Asher …. shall yield royal dainties,” literally, choice morsels of the king, meaning fit for a king (Genesis 49:20); “besides that which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty,” literally, which he gave her according to the hand (the wealth) of King Solomon (1 Kings 10:13; compare the Revised Version margin); “a royal statute,” literally, statute of a malka’, which is the emphatic Aramaic term for melekh, “king” (Daniel 6:7);(2) mamlakhah, “the power and dignity of a king,” “Gibeon …. one of the royal cities,” i.e. a capital city with a king of her own (Joshua 10:2; compare 1 Samuel 27:5); “all the seed royal,” literally, the seed of the kingdom (2 Kings 11:1; compare 2 Chronicles 22:10);(3) malkhuth, “kinghood,” “kingdom”:

“royal majesty,” literally, majesty of kinghood (1 Chronicles 29:25); quite frequently in the Book of Esther; royal wine (1:7); crown (1:11; compare 2:17; 6:8); commandment (1:19); “her royal estate,” literally, her kinghood (1:19); house royal (2:16; compare 5:1); royal apparel (5:1; compare 6:8,15); throne (5:1);

(4) melukhah, “kingdom,” “kingly power and dignity”:

“royal city,” literally, the city of the kingdom, meaning here that part of the city (Rabbah) in which the royal palace was situated (2 Samuel 12:26); “royal diadem,” literally, turban of kinghood (Isaiah 62:3);

(5) in Jeremiah 43:10 we find the word shaphrir; its meaning is uncertain:

“royal pavilion” (the Revised Version (British and American) and the King James Version), “glittering” (Revised Version, margin), “scepter,” “a carpet covering a throne.”

The New Testament uses the word for basilikos, “belonging to king”:

“royal apparel” (Acts 12:21); “the royal law,” something like “the golden rule,” being foremost because including all others (James 2:8), and for basileios (being vested with kingly power and honor), “royal priesthood,” the Hebrew rendering would be mamlekheth kohanim, “a kingdom of priests,” i.e. a kingdom whose citizens are priests, emphasizing the two facts that the true Christians have free access to the grace of God and that they enjoy the liberties and privileges of His kingdom (1 Peter 2:9).

Here’s the secret to a believer living a Royal lifestyle – it’s dependent upon what we feed ourselves.

If we partake of the Word of holiness and righteous, then we will become that. However if we partake of the world, we will in like manner, become worldly and so it goes for everything else.

Don’t be discouraged, He has overcome the world and we are not bound to be as we are right now. If there is depression, anxiety or sin dragging us down, simply stop eating the wrong food! Messiah, the bread of (new) life, the royal nutrition, that will give you a royal lifestyle, a new life in Him. Then we will become Messiah like and emulate His life. We will not be limited by who we have been but live by who He is in us. Bees and Bee-lievers.

If we consume Royal food, we will become the royal new creation in Him and fulfill and resemble His Word; according to 1Peter 2:9, we are a Royal Priesthood a Holy nation because we are grated in by His Grace and Mercy.

Joint Heirs with Him.And I will give to him to sit on my throne  Rev. 3:21
