A Missing Piece?

Is there a missing peace in our Christmas festivities?

Amid the annual fuss and flurry, shopping and stress…

Pause a mini manna moment…

and assess the real reason for the season.

Yes, the impact of that phrase has been diminished by it’s overuse.

However its’ TRUTH remains forever pertinent. He is the bridge the WAY of reconciliation.

During this season our focus often strays from our savior, to that which has become so commercialized and gift oriented, that we forget the greatest gift that ever was given should be the primary focus and IS The MISSING PEACE/PIECE in too many ‘Christmas’ events and gatherings.

 

It’s all about the presence

not the presents,

because He is the star

of the house of bread.

BEIT LECHEM

בֵּית לֶחֶם

Bethlehem Is the Greek spelling of the Hebrew name BEIT LECHEM meaning house of bread, in what more appropriate place could he have been born, the one who said, for the bread of God is that which descends from heaven and gives life to the world. John 6:33

Bethlehem (/ˈbɛθlɪhɛm/; Arabic: بيت لحم‎ Bayt Lahm Arabic pronunciation: [beːt.laħm], “House of Meat”;

Hebrew: בֵּית לֶחֶם‬ Bet Lehem, Hebrew pronunciation: [bet ˈleχem], “House of Bread”;

Ancient Greek: Βηθλεέμ Greek pronunciation: [bɛːtʰle.ém];

How do we see things?

We miss so much, its all about perception and what we focus on…

our eyes are a gift; so what do we see?

There are so many sights happening around us.

Hebrew letter Tav at the end of a lightening bolt!

So many amazingsigns in the heavens,in the sky,the moon and stars

Nov. 19th, Northern Lights Tromsø, Norway,Phoenix appears in aurora over Senja, Norway Nov. 11thSky over Portugal abovebelow in Swedens’ skies.

There’s a comet passing by and has been dubbed the Christmas comet.

Its’ closest approach was 16th December.

The comet 46P Wirtanen near the Pleiades on Dec.16th 2018 Visible to the naked eye, a reminder of the star that the wise men followed and amazingly in the same location as the one they saw which they interpreted as meaning that a king had been born in Beit Lechem of Judea .and where the Lamb of God was born and wrapped in swaddling clothes.

Which star are we following which star is leading us? And where is it headed?

Make sure it’s the bright shining of Messiah and not an angel of light!

Instead of looking down to our digital devices let’s look up to where our help comes from.

Look up, at the amazing phenomena happening all around this beautiful earth which He spoke into existence.

There is nothing wrong with remembering Him as a baby as long as it does not detract from His purpose in coming  – we celebrate His miraculous birth and yet it was just the beginning. As believers, we know He is Risen and that our soon returning King is no longer a helpless infant.

His life, death, resurrection and soon return, should be our prime motivation in any purpose of gathering together. Not the food, or the gifts, or the traps and trappings, all designed by purveyors of commercial things, who all vie for our hard earned money.

They ply their never ending temptations directly to our wants, lusts, traditions and culture and promote everything except what we should be thinking of.

A little research will confirm the somewhat non Christian roots of many traditions we entertain; like santa clause, etc. The exact time of year when Messiah Jesus was born, is possibly correlating more accurately to the Hebrew season of either Passover in the spring, which some scholars say and others point to the season of Succoth, which is our Sept/Oct and not Dec 25th. However the exact date is not the critical issue. The focus of our love intention and heart motivation is.

Our attention is linked to our intention.

What we give our time to and in what order and capacity.

It’s all about our souls’ desire and our spirits’ well-being.

The missing piece should not be peace missing in your spirit, soul and heart; we should be filled with the peace He came to bring us. Just as the Angels declared it to those shepherds in the fields.

True biblical shalom refers to an inward sense of completeness or wholeness. Although it can describe the absence of war, a majority of biblical references refer to an inner completeness and tranquility. today, when we greet someone or say goodbye, in Israel you say, Shalom.

We are literally saying, “may you be full of well-being” or, “may health and prosperity be upon you.”
Hebrew words go beyond their spoken pronunciation. Each Hebrew word conveys feeling, intent and emotion. Shalom is more then just simply peace; it is a complete peace. It is a feeling of contentment, completeness, wholeness, well being and harmony.

According to Strong’s Concordance 7965 Shalom means completeness, wholeness, health, peace, welfare, safety soundness, tranquility, prosperity, perfectness, fullness, rest, harmony, the absence of agitation or discord.

Shalom comes from the root verb shalam meaning to be safe in mind, body, or estate. to be complete, perfect and full. In modern Hebrew the obviously related word Shelem means to pay for, and Shulam means to be fully paid.

So when Jesus/Yeshua said, My Peace I give to you, My Peace I leave with you, the meaning of fully paid, takes on a deeper concept, that of Gal. 3:13 and Col.1:14

Paid The Price. (Shulam)

… He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness.  

What do we see?

And Messiah Himself said He was both giving and leaving His Shalom with us. Not like the world can understand but His peace – the missing peace – If it wasn’t missing He would have had no need or reason to say what He did.

Messiah Jesus/Yeshua is called Sar shalom, Prince of Peace, which perfectly describes the ministry and personality of our Messiah (Isaiah 9:6).

Shalom is taken from the root word shalam, which means, to be safe in mind, body, or estate.

It speaks of completeness, fullness, or a type of wholeness that encourages you to give back — to generously re-pay something in some way.

If this is the way we understand biblical peace, then suddenly many verses take on a whole new meaning.

Because each Hebrew word conveys feeling, intent and emotion, Shalom is more then just simply peace; it is a complete peace. It is a feeling of contentment, completeness, wholeness, well being and harmony. Nothing is missing or broken and no good thing is withheld.

Each of the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet has a special meaning and a story to tell. The Hebrew letters spelling the word “shalom” are Shin Lamed Vav Mem sofit. Taken together, and reading from right to left, they spell SHALOM.

SHIN is the 21st letter of the Hebrew alphabet and it has a numerical value of 300. SHIN means TOOTH, YEAR, REPEAT, TEACH. SHIN makes the sound SHHHH when the DOT is on the right, and SSSS when the DOT is on he left. Shin is one of 7 letters which may be adorned with Tagin, or little crowns, in the Torah, Tefillin or Mezzuzah scroll.

LAMED is the 12th letter of the Hebrew alphabet and has a numerical value of 30. Lamed makes a sound like the L in Like. Lamed means both TO LEARN and TO TEACH. The Lamed is the tallest and most majestic of all the letters. Since LAMED means LEARNING, it would seem that this would constitute a direct connection between LAMED, LEARNING and YHWH.

VAV is the 6th letter, has a numerical value of 6, and is constructed of a single vertical line. Vav means HOOK and makes a sound like the V in Victory. When used as a vowel, Vav can sound like a long o or a long u. Translated it means AND. It is the GREAT CONNECTOR. Vav appears in the Four Letter name of YHWH our Elohim – Yud Hey Vav Hey.

MEM is the 13th letter of the Hebrew alphabet and has a numerical value of 40. Mem makes a sound like the M in Middle. But according to an ancient text the MEM hummms! Mem is usually associated with the word mayim – WATER or Eemah – MOTHER. Mem is composed of a Caf (20) and a Vav (6) = 26, which have the same GEMATRIA as the Yud (10) Hey (5) Vav (6) Hey (5) = 26, name of God – the holiest of Name of God. The first word in Torah is Bereshit, meaning: A BEGINNING. If you divide Bereshit into bara and sheet, it means HE CREATED SIX (sheet is 6 in Aramaic) meaning The 6 days in which creation was completed.

Matt. 1:21. She will bear a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus [the Greek form of the Hebrew Joshua, which means Savior], for He will save His people from their sins [that is, prevent them from failing and missing the true end and scope of life, which is God].

This is why He came and the world is in danger of leaving Him out of the annual celebration of His birth.This year let us be the ones to refocus the attention of those we are with, to the Sar Shalom/Prince of Peace; whose gift of forgiveness, salvation and eternal life will not break, or have to be returned because it’s the wrong size! Let us guide our family, friends, coworkers and neighbors to the present giver.

(It is rather disturbing that santa and satan is just one letter different by removing n from the center to the end of the word!?)

There is nothing wrong with giving, on the contrary it is the central message of the gospel – He GAVE His only Son.

And it truly is, more blessed to give than to receive. This is a principle based on Hebrew thought that the person in need is actually the reason we are able to be blessed; because they have a need, we have the opportunity to be blessed to give and should be grateful for that chance.

We can give in many ways our time, our talents, our money, our resources, our love, our attention, our prayers, etc. It’s as always, the motivation of the heart and why we do what we do that determines the quality of our gift; and it truly is the thought that counts. What one may see as a useless gift, was on the givers end their way of showing their love and fond thoughts. The old adage of don’t look a gift horse in the mouth reveals an ungrateful attitude.  While we celebrate the true meaning behind the worlds façade, when we look at the twinkling lights… let’s remember, as we did at Hanukkah, He is the light of the world, of our lives and the hope of tomorrow.

This new year, as the Gregorian calendar changes to 2019, we remember the Fathers’ calendar and what time it really is.   It’s 5779 and time is running out.

So instead of scheduling the attendance to an annual Christmas service, crammed in between everything else, let’s make Him the central focus of all we do this Christmas time. After all, the reference to Him as Messiah/Christ is why it’s called Christmas.

The date is not as important as how we spend our time and what we focus on. For believers every day is just as special, its not just for one or two times a year.So indeed it truly is, Joy to the world for the Lord is come – and He is Coming again …soon!

Is there a missing piece in your plans?

Maybe what’s missing is the Peace of the Son of Man, Jesus the Messiah!

He’s the one who completes the picture.He is the last piece in the puzzle and the glue that holds everything together by the Word of His power.

Let us look for a star of guidance and wisely seek Him in our own lives and be willing to follow wherever He leads.He is the light from on high that dawns upon us to guide our feet into the WAY of Shalom.

We may never intellectually comprehend the miracle of His incarnation and all its’ majestic mystery with our natural finite minds.Let’s rather follow the example of the wise men, who, after following the star, they then fell down in humble worship on finding Him.Make sure the true Shalom is the present that we give to others and that you receive His gift to you.

Much love and abundant blessings to every subscriber, follower, FB friends and of course much Shalom from your MMM Mishpachah.

MMM just passed 2 years of internet presence and will continue to post with the Fathers’/Avinu’s guidance. for subscribing and your faithful support in prayer.

What Does The Mysterious Roy G Biv Reveal About Ahavah?

Is it perhaps an emerald green like the color of the rainbow around our Heavenly Fathers Throne?

Or could it be blue

like the firmament of the heavens..?

the same as the color of a sapphire?

Here is a very curious find…

“Skystone” or “Stone of Heaven” is an odd type of blue stone and was discovered during archeological excavations in Sierra Leone, West Africa.

Angelo Pitoni, the archeologist who found the stone,

was puzzled by its appearance, so he sent it to be investigated by laboratories of the University of Geneva and according to analysis.

 A piece of Sky Stone being prepared for cutting.

An amazing ,77.17% of the stone, is somehow made of pure OXYGEN, yet harder than diamond, unnatural to earth and has strong carbon and silica (glass) in it! The remaining percentage was divided between carbon, silicon, calcium and sodium.

Sky-Stone-Analysis

The composition makes the “Sky Stone” similar to a kind of concrete or stucco, and seems to have been artificially colored.

The natives living in the area where the stone was found, already knew about its existence because this stone-like artifact used to pop out during the digging in the area.

Another mystery related to the stone of heaven is that this artifact is always found in soil layers dating to at least 12000 BC. 

Could the sky stone be part of the firmament ?

http://www.mysterious-skystone.com/?p=4

Or is this like that which Moses, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu and the 70 elders saw in Ex. 24:9-10 (NASB)?

 

Or is the color of

maybe gold

like the sea of glass – the purest transparent gold that the streets of heaven are made of?

God is love (1 John 4:8), the very nature of the Creator is under scrutiny when love is considered…

We are used to hearing the definition of Love in Greek which has many different words to describe various types of love. Some say 3, some 6 and others 8.

In ancient Greek, the three words for love with which we are more familiar: eros, philia, and agape.

Eros: The first kind of love was named after the Greek god of fertility, it represented the idea of, a physical love, passion and desire between husband and wife. the root word is found in erotic. The Modern Greek word ” erotas ” means “(romantic) love.

Philia/Philos, as in ‘brotherly’ love, The love between two members of the family, love of Mankind, broader human relationships, or deep friendship; the root word is found in ‘ Philadelphia’.

Agape, a really high relationship with the Godhead, the love of God for Man; or love for everyone. As a verb Agapo means “I love”; Agapetos means “beloved.”

the next 3 are:

Ludus, or playful love.

Philautia, or love of the self.

Pragma, or longstanding love.

The other 2 are:

Storge, Affection, as in love for babies children, pets.

Mania, a combination of Eros and Ludus: Obsessive, troubled, intense, madness.

In English we have a number of words for love: fondness, adoration, cherishing, etc.

Ahava (Ah-ha-vah) is the Hebrew word for love.

Hebrew was not just created by God, but it is the language through which He spoke in creating the world.

Much wisdom is attributed to the words and letters in the Hebrew language and understanding the concepts that are incorporated in words can help us in our own lives.  

Hebrew is a living language, a language of the heart/lev and it is a power-filled force that helps us better know the Bible and it’s author.  Each Hebrew letter is a sign, a symbol, a sound, and a number; and maybe even a color?  By digging into the depths of the original language of the Bible we can better grasp its message. 

The word “love” which is thrown about so freely in English that everyone uses for everything has a special meaning in Hebrew.

Love or “ahavah” in the Hebraic mind is very different in today’s culture. In the Hebrew, love is connected directly with action and obedience.

Strong’s Exhaustive Dictionary defines ahavah as “to have affection, sexually or otherwise, love, like, to befriend, to be intimate.” 

Hebraically ahavah is a verb and a noun, it is an act of doing. Ahava is not just a feeling.

It brings to mind the idea of longing for or breathing for another.

To get a clear understanding of ahavah, let’s examine the Hebrew word itself and learn what it means to love Hebraically.

 Most Hebrew words can be broken down to a three-consonant root word that contains the essence of the word’s meaning.   

Love in Hebrew is “Ahavah” , which is made up of three basic Hebrew letters,

 These three letters actually are broken down into two parts: a two letter base or root,

and the first letter,

which is a modifier.

The root word of ahavah is “ahav.”

The term ahav in Hebrew means, “to give.”

 

The Hebrew word “ahavah” is spelled

“aleph, hei, bet, hei.” 

The root word ahav is spelled “aleph, hei, bet.”

These Hebrew letters reveal a secret of love hidden for thousands of years. This secret is exposed through the meaning behind each Hebrew letter in “ahav.” 

Hebrew is read from right to right to left.  The first letter of the Hebrew alphabet is also the first letter in “ahav.” 

This is the aleph.

The first letter of the Hebrew alphabet is also the first letter in “ahav.” This is the aleph this letter has the numerical value of one. Aleph symbolizes the one and only Eternal God. In Revelation 22:13,  Jesus/Yeshua called Himself the Aleph and the Tav. Aleph is a picture of God our Father and His creation. There is one Father Creator.

God our Father – Abba/Avinu

Jesus/Yeshua said that this is the number one commandment in Matt.22:37-39. The first of all commandments is, Shema O Yisra’el; the Master /God is our Father. God our Abba/Avinu is Echad: and you shall ahava (love) the Master/ God our Father with all your lev (heart), and with all your being, and with all your mind, and with all your strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like it; You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There are no other commandments greater than these,” Mark 12:29-31.

Ahavah starts with Aleph. Real ahavah starts with loving God our Father first. Then, as a person has a relationship with God our Father, we can love our neighbor properly.

The next letter of ahav is the “hei.” The letter “hei” is the fifth letter of the aleph-bet. Five is the number of chesed/grace and highly symbolic.

There are five books of the Torah, five fingers on the hand, and King David gathered five smooth stones to kill Goliath. It is through grace or chesed that God our Abba/Avinu loves us. Mankind loves God our Father back through the fifth letter hei. How? Ahavah is shown to Abba/Avinu through hei – through the five books of the Torah. “If you love me, obey my mitzvoth / commandments. If a man loves Me, he will guard My words, and My Abba/Avinu will love him, and We will come to him, and make Our stay with Him,” said Y’shua in John 14:15, 23.

The hei is the means that a person expresses ahavah. You love and give to God our Abba/Avinu by your actions of obedience.

The form of the letter hei, the number five shows how to correctly love Abba/Avinu and man. The three lines of hei are a picture of loving Abba/Avinu with thought, deed, and words. The top horizontal line is the realm of thought. A person’s thoughts should be focused upward on Abba/Avinu and His word. The vertical line to the right is speech. From the abundance of the heart/mind/horizontal line, the mouth speaks because speech comes directly from thought.

The unattached line to the left is deed. Though actions should be connected to our intentions, they often are not. “There are many plans in a man’s heart; nevertheless the counsel of Abba/Avinu shall stand,” Mishlei / Proverbs 19:21.

Man is to unite the three lines through devotion and service. Loving Abba/Avinu with thoughts, words, and deeds is the goal of the hei.

The Beit is the second letter of the Hebrew alphabet. It is the third letter in “ahav.”

(B is also V in Hebrew.)

This letter vividly demonstrates the purpose of all creation. How? Beit is a picture of a house. Abba/Avinu created the world to be a dwelling place in this world below.

The first letter in the Torah is a beit, found in the word Beresheet, Genesis.

The tabernacle was made to create a bayit, or a house, for Abba/Avinu. “Know you not that you are the temple of Abba/Avinu, and that the Spirit of Abba/Avinu dwells in you?” 1 Corinthians 3:16.

The objective of loving Abba/Avinu is to be conformed to His image and represent Him to the world. The two are to walk together.

Beit, is also the number two.

Abba/Avinu plus His servant equals two. Yet in the beit, the two shall become one. Y’shua said, “For where two, or three will assemble together in My Name, there am I in the midst of them,” Matthew 18:20. Ahava starts with loving Abba/Avinu first and foremost through word, deed, and thought.

This type of ahavah creates a house for Abba/Avinu to inhabit. We make a dwelling place or house for Abba/Avinu when we show love by giving to others.

In review, the Hebrew root word for love is “ahav,” spelled “aleph, hei, bet.” The aleph reminds us that we are to love Abba/Avinu first. Hei shows us to express that love by conforming our thoughts, words, and deeds to the five books of the Torah. When love is directed first to Abba/Avinu, then a beit, a house, is built to sustain His presence.

The meaning of the two letter base, is “to give”. The letter “aleph” , which precedes these two letters comes to modify the meaning of the base word, “give”. The meaning of, is “I give” and also “love”.

We now see the connection between the two words, “I give” and “love”. Love is giving. Not only is love giving, but the actual process of giving develops the very connection between the giver and the receiver. The more giving that one does, the greater is the connection.

This, is hebrew thought.

The process of giving is a vehicle through which the giver through his act of giving is able to, through a physical gift  give of himself to another. This act of giving something is not merely helping another but is much more than that. Giving enables us to make a connection to another. When we give to another, that which we give to him/her, could have been utilize to further our own self. Instead, we choose to take that which could have been used for our own needs and instead, use it for someone else.

True ahavah, true love, is more concerned about giving than receiving.

Giving is a condition that creates and sustains love. With out giving, there is no connection that is sustaining.  Giving is the vehicle of love. God so loved the world that He GAVE His only Son.

Love may focus on receiving, but ahavah is all about giving.

Is RED the color of love – from the sacrificial death of Messiah and the Blood that was shed for us? Matt. 26:28.

The true relationships that our meaningful in our lives are those in which mutual giving takes place. The giving may be physical, emotional, intellectual or a combination. Without giving from ourselves, no relationship can be enduring.

That is the secret of love that is revealed to us in the Hebrew language placed within by it’s Creator.

However, love is more than just a word, rather than an emotion, it involves action, in Israel, love is also a way of life!  It is not something that happens “to you” but a condition that you create when you give.

In Hebrew: דודים ,חיבוב ,רחמים ,אהבה, are some words having to do with love.

(The word דודים is sometimes a plural noun; but it also means love, as in Ezekiel 16:8.)

Because in the Hebrew language there aren’t any exact synonyms, each of the apparent synonyms for אהבה, ahava, will point to a slightly different aspect of love.

(The noun for love is ahavah.)

אהבה is the most general word for love, which is used to express all kinds of love and affection, from deep love, to just liking someone or something.

אהב aheb to love (verb) = ah-HAHV is usually translated with to love, but it rather means to be attracted to ,or to be attached to, and that in a rather mechanical way like a magnet to a nail.

It’s used to describe a parent’s attachment to a child,

“you love you” doesn’t make much sense, but it would be:

to a female = at ohevet et atsmekh

to a male = atah ohev et atsmekha

if you are male, your love = ahava shelkha

if you are female, your love = ahava shelakh

The obvious antithesis of this verb is שנא – sane – which means, to hate, and which is identical to the verb that means, to sleep. Sleeping in the Bible is often used in the sense of being inattentive or aloof (Matthew 26:40), which suggests that our verb אהב (‘aheb) primarily has to do with being attentive and intimate.

דודים is used for love such as that of newlyweds.

חיבוב is close to “cherish.”

רחמים is for a gut-feeling, such as the love of a guardian.

חסד is a verb –  hasad – and is the reason why we see curious words like “loving kindness” or “faithful love” in the Bible.
It appears to have originated as a word that expressed a kind of economic and emotional loyalty among relatives or friends or neighbors, but it appears to have moved into legal jargon as the verb that describes a formal contract or covenant.

In our world the word, contract brings to mind being bound by a law, that when broken will land you in jail. The Hebrew word חסד (hasad),  has primarily to do with human decency and allegiance.

רחם

The verb רחם raham – expresses a kind of devotional love that usually goes one way: from a caregiver to the receiver of this care.

It’s often used to describe a parent’s devotion to a child, and subsequently also God’s devotion to mankind.

The Fathers Love is expressed in the 1st covenant was sealed with Noah after the flood and God pointed out to him the rainbow in the heavens which was not before the flood for it had never rained.

For Noah it would serve as a reminder to Him of God’s covenant promises and salvation from the judgment on sin.

If we had never seen one, how would we know what it was – how would someone describe it to you know without tv, the internet or Hollywood to animate it?

Then suddenly came the deluge.

The whole eco system was changed forever after the windows of heaven were opened and the fountains of the deep were broken up.

Note of interest…

They apparently have found an ocean beneath the ocean!! how they know that is in itself a mystery!

https://www.iflscience.com/environment/huge-underground-ocean-discovered-towards-earths-core/

https://www.livescience.com/1312-huge-ocean-discovered-earth.html

The sky above the firmament may have had more of a solid structure like that of ice – frozen precipitation. It’s apparently cold out in space. Just as altitude affects temperature and there is a clear snow line on mountains, with snow on the highest peaks all year round. The higher one goes the colder it gets.

The windows of heaven opening were maybe a way of meaning, the ice is melting and its going to fall to earth.

Water always finds the lowest point flowing down. The amount of precipitation condensed moisture we call rain, is determined by the clouds that form as the earth heats up from the suns rays. The moisture rises as we know heat always rises, and it’s the same principle for how a hot air ballon functions.

The moisture evaporates and condensation, rises up and then hits the cold air in the upper atmosphere and it is transformed into what we see as clouds. The more moisture in the clouds the darker they become in color.

When they become over saturated and too heavy to float, the moisture they contain falls to earth as rain or snow. Friction within the cloud gives rise to lightning which precedes the rain falling harder and faster. Thunder is simply the sound of that electric lightning bolt of energy and we see it before we hear it, because light waves travel faster than sound waves. However this is not a science /physics lesson, although God is the perfect scientist/physics master and man is only at the tip of comprehending all He has created and understanding how His creation functions.

The point of the pre-ramble is to highlight the rainbow, which had probably never been seen prior to the flood, for according to scripture, there was no rain..

Genesis 2:5–6 states that “the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. But there went up  a mist…

So therefore probably no clouds  however, they may have seen the mist. Gen. 2:8

No Rain? Crazy you may say?

There are desert places today that never see any measurable rainfall so its not impossible.

As a covenant reminder it’s’ His token of love that is perpetual and everlasting in Jesus/Yeshua. The ultimate representation of divine and unconditional love for us.

So as a covenant sign what color is love?

Is it the emerald rainbow described as being around His throne as described in Revelation?

The colors of the rainbow are Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, (blue-purple) and Violet (red-purple).

An Acronym for the rainbow colors is ROY G BIV – it sounds like the name of a person and makes it easy to remember the order in which we see them.

Through that ‘mysterious name’ we will have the secret color of ahavah revealed to us.

Is it red?

The color of Messiah Jesus/Yeshua’s blood?

The color of the sacrifice that paid for our redemption and forgiveness before we even knew we needed it and certainly did not deserve i?

Orange, golden for the harvest of the first fruit and the gold of the tabernacle furniture together with the mercy seat that speaks of our salvation?

Yellow the color of the sun/son the brightness of His glory. The light beams that come forth from His hands the hiding place of His power. The color of spring, new life, resurrection and the season of First Fruits? 

Is it Green, the color of the green pastures that He leads us to lie down in, His true Shalom? The tranquility and safety of our beloved great shepherd over His sheep.

Or Blue? The color of the heavens and all it promises us as it beckons to our longing hearts. The color of the sea that speaks of humanity and the only One who can reconcile the two back from our broken fellowship and so healing the relationship.

Is Love Indigo? A blue-purple for royalty, of the King of kings and Lord of lords. The ONE/ECHAD, who stepped down into darkness that we should see a great light and turn from our wicked ways and seek His face.

Or could it be Violet? A red-purple of the high priestly garment that He indeed is the propitiation for our sins the only go between that intercedes for us before the Fathers throne. The High Priest of the confession of our faith, of love, that not only ministered in the place of the sacrifice but actually became it.

Is Love White? The color of the high priests garment worn on the most Holy day and representing the robe of righteousness that we are clothed in as our garment of salvation; washed in the blood and cleansed white as snow. The brides adornment and the wedding guests required attire.

Or is it black? As He reminds us of the hidden riches of darkness;

and that He was in the the thick dark cloud 

leading and guiding and protecting.

Or is Love gold? A hue of orange, the purest element known. So pure that Heavens streets are made of it; it does not rust nor corrode. In its’ most purest form, with all the dross removed, it’s transparent; so there is nothing hidden from or obscured – it is pure, like His love.

There is a cyclical element to the color wheel and the numbers are significant

3 primary colors red Yellow and Blue

3 secondary colors orange green and purple (indigo violet)

red + yellow = orange

yellow + blue= green

blue + red= purple

However there are 7 colors in the rainbow –

7 has the meaning of spiritual perfection.

The position in the rainbow shows the secondary color between the primaries that mix to produce it and explains the indigo-violet as each color is next to the one it contains more of; i.e. the blue-purple sits next to blue and the violet next to the red.

These are the colors that are in the visible spectrum of light that our human eyes can identify. There are other spectrums e.g. infra red and black light and that we cannot see with the naked eye but we can see them with the help of technology. There are x rays, gamma rays, and radiation light waves, that we call the aurora borealis.

It’s all a form of energy and helps in describing that God is light.

God   IS…. His covenant sign.

He IS light…

…and John says He is love and He is Light –

so what color is love???

The symbol has been highjacked and used by other groups over the years but interestingly, one of them is not the same rainbow as it only has 6 colors and not seven; and six is the number of man!

The 7 colors can be connected to the 7 feasts,

and also linked to the 12 tribes...and 12 months

 So what color is love???

The way we see all 7 of the rainbow colors is because the beam of white light passes through water droplets and is split or divided into its base elemental light frequencies.

Seen here passing through a prism is the same as the process when light passes through water droplets in the sky forming the rainbow. We know the significance of water = the word of God and that God is light and that there are 7 spirits of God; could they also be represented by the colors?

The diagram above shows the different spectral light and wave forms of light now the atmosphere had changed as the water in the firmament above could not be put back.

So if the white light = God, positioned before the prism…

God is light – God is love and is therefore = to 7 colors after passing through the prism –

So here’s the answer to our question – what color is Love?

It’s all of them!

Ahavah/Love is all the colors rolled into one because God is One –

Echad;

and so love is also the source – white light – so bright it’s almost blinding.

– and the seven rainbow colors passing through the water of His Word was in Yeshua, the Word made flesh.

It is the sign of His covenant of LOVE in the heavens.

It’s a reminder of His Love in the 7 appointed times and that He is coming back to manifest the heavenly, royal, priestly colors of blue, indigo and violet to fulfill the covenant.

The frequencies that our human eyes can see tells us of His Love and of His seven spirits here to minister to our needs as Holy Spirit/Ruach HaKodesh in 7 colors of Love; all contained within the purest light of righteousness, (white). The white of the robes of His righteousness that He places around us.

The rainbow reminds us of His glory (gold) and His grace, (we come from dark to light, black to white); and because every color of the palette comes from 3 original primaries, with white or black added for hues, shades and tints. He is in every part of His creation and His love shows in every color we see.

Each color is visible because it’s the only 1 of the 7 that is not absorbed by the object that is the visible light. Light is a frequency and travels in waves like the movement of water in the sea. Light apparently travels at 186,000 miles per second, too fast to be followed but we see the result.

When we humbly receive His Light – His visual AHAVAH – it changes us and we are never the same again. No one can remain the same once they have been in the light/love of His presence.

God is light and He must by this understanding, also have frequency as part of His existence, His being. It follows then, that in some measure, as we are His children we are therefore children/beings of that same light.

Eph.5:8. We must walk and

His light was the light of men. While I am with you I am the light of the world You (We) are now the light of the world.

To  recall the simple and innocent saying as a child, this little light of mine… It really is pertinent, we really do need to shine brightly. Let the AHAVAH colors of His covenant shine out through us; as His pure white light shines on us and passes through the Word dwelling in us, emitting the 7 colors and radiating to those in the world around us, the seven spirits of His Ah-HA-VAH.

What color is Ahava???

ALL  – ONE  – ECHAD

– ALL –  LIGHT

ALL – LOVE

One day soon no other source of light will be needed for He Himself will be the light. Rev.22:5.

Next time there is a rainbow (ke-shet) in the sky – see ALL the colors of the Father’s Ahavah covenant over our lives.

Shalom Mishpachah, and a special thank you for your prayers, the technical issues seem to have finally been resolved!

Please Do Not leave this page without the surety in your heart that you are a child of His light..

NOT CERTAIN?

YOU CAN BE..

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

Its all about Life and Relationship, NOT Religion.

You are greatly loved and precious in His sight.

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.

The Miracle of The Hammer Men

Light The Lights

חֲנֻכָּה

Chanukah/Chanukkah /Hannukkah/Hanukkah

This coming week is

חֲנֻכָּה

which begins 24 Kislev 5777 and lasts 8 days.

It is not a biblically-commanded feast/ appointed time of the Lord. (Leviticus 23.)

However it has become a permanent fixture on the calendar; maybe it is partly because there is a distinct lack of annual appointment times during the almost 6 months which include winter and also due to the fact that it falls during the annual Christmas season and people have come to associate it with a Jewish alternative of the western Christmas celebration.

For the Hebrew Israelites/ Jewish people, wintertime is a season that is supposed to be a time of preparation and a kind of dormancy period (like a hibernation) which stands between the end of Israel’s year in the autumn/fall and it’s new beginning in the spring time when the annual cycle of God’s appointed times begins again.

In fact it is not mentioned anywhere in the scriptures of the Old Testament/ Torah. Which is an interesting point, however, it is mentioned in the New Testament

The one place it is mentioned is in connection with Messiah/Jesus when he was in Jerusalem walking in the temple and could indicate that He was celebrating the remembrance or could indicate that He at least acknowledged it’s significance.

John 10:22-23

“Now it was the Feast of Dedication in Jerusalem, and it was winter. And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon’s porch.”

This begs the question. Why do Jewish people who do not believe in Jesus Christ as Messiah or acknowledge the new testament/ covenant as Any kind of divine Record of truth, celebrate the season of Hanukkah?

Historically it is a factual incident which took place between the years that ended the old testament Records and when the New Testament Records begin approximately 150 years before Messiah/Jesus was born.

The event that precipitated the Chanukah commemoration occurred around 168 B.C. Jerusalem had been conquered and the Holy Temple had been defiled by Antiochus Epiphanes IV and his Syrian army.

Antiochus IV Epiphanes was a Hellenistic Greek king of the Seleucid Empire from 175 BC.

Thousands of Jews had been slaughtered and Antiochus had set up an idol in the Temple, declaring himself to be god. His coup de grâce was sacrificing a pig on the altar. 

Hanukkah also known as the festival of lights begins each year on the 25th day of the nine months Kislev according to the Jewish calendar which usually corresponds to the month of December.

Hasmonian Period (166-63 BCE)

It is based on historical events Hanukkah means the feast of dedication and commemorates the victory of Judah Maccabee (which means “hammer”) and the group of Israelites who became freedom fighters against the Greco- Syrian oppressors during the second century BC. Israel’s temple was defiled by pagan sacrifices during the course of foreign occupation.

These brave men who came to be known as the Maccabees retook Jerusalem from the invaders, the first act was to purify cleanse and rededicate the temple and this is the root of the eight day annual celebration and remembrance.

Restoring the Eternal Light

“…command the children of Israel that they bring you pure oil of pressed olives for the light, to cause the lamp to burn continually. …It shall be a statute forever to their generations…” Exodus 27:20-21

The Temple Menorah needed the oil to keep the flames alight and hence the 9 branch Menorah, called a chanukiah, is lit during the week one for each night + the servant candle the tallest central candle.

Links  below for more details of the lighting and meaning.

https://www.minimannamoments.com/who-lights-up-your-life/

https://www.minimannamoments.com/hanukkahchanukah-believers-today/

https://www.minimannamoments.com/chanukah-or-hanukkah/

Within the framework of historical events the rabbis enhanced the legend of the miraculous eight date burning of a single days supply of oil which is commonly taught and universally accepted explanation of the meaning and the purpose of Hanukkah.

This is all recorded in the Talmud tracate Shabbat 21b. The events referred to here are all verified by historical sources, except the miracle of the enduring holy oil.

So it may have happened but It may not?

The real story of Hanukkah is recorded in the ancient Jewish writings 1 and 2 Maccabees which is part of the inter-testamental manuscripts catalogue among the infamous Apocrypha.

The Apocrypha, which is a collection of writings included in the Septuagint which is the Jewish translation of the Hebrew Scriptures into Greek. It is also contained in the Latin Vulgate and was originally part of the King James Bible however many Jews and Protestant Christians do not consider the books of the apocrypha to be divinely inspired note to carry the weight of scriptural authority.

However, although 1 and 2 Maccabees are included in the apocrypha, it’s not the canon of Hebrew Scriptures but are nevertheless considered authoritative accounts as accurate historical documents.

For further study here are 2 links for PDF files of 1 & 2 Maccabees

http://www.jacksonsnyder.com/yah/manuscript-library/11-maccabees_1.pdf

http://scripturaltruth.com/PDF_Apocrypha/APOCRYPHA%202ndMACCABEES%20OF%20THE%20KING%20JAMES%20BIBLE%201611.pdf

 

The real story of Hanukkah is the story of turmoil and upheaval to the nation of Israel. It is a record of the attempted simulation of the Jewish people and the anti-Semitic spirit set against them. It is a story of sin and corruption; oppression and persecution; freedom and ultimately victory.

The heroes of Hanukkah were not motivated by loveless legalism or a misplaced religious fervor but by an overwhelming zeal for the one true God and it is a rallying cry for all who have dedicated their lives to serve the Messiah every single day of our lives and not just for one week of the year.

At the heart of this story is the account of Gods people experiencing assimilation, oppression, conviction, self-sacrifice victory and above all dedication.

Why is this relevant to Christians?

The Temple had to be restored before Messiah Yeshua could come. He acknowledged this holiday as we read in the new testament scriptures, where He rebuked the leading Jewish authorities for non-biblical aberrations. 

John 10:24 was the opening description of a discourse by Jesus the Messiah, just before He was to reveal that it is His works that bear witness of who He really is. Then the Jews surrounded Him and said to Him, ‘How long do You keep us in doubt? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly.’

Few realize that this took place during the Chanukah celebration in Jerusalem. It was here in the Temple, more than 150 years earlier, that an event had taken place that was essential for Jesus to come, for it restored the Temple and Jerusalem to Israel.

Therefore, it is easy to understand why Messiah would share in the celebration even though it is not one of the commanded biblically appointed times of the LORD from Leviticus 23.

There is also a teaching that links CHanukkah with the end times and the coming of antichrist.

It behooves us all to remember the real reason for the season amid the frenzy of parties, food, drink and gifts.

This year, when we see the familiar Christmas lights let’s remember Messiah is the True light of the world and remind ourselves that we are to be the light shining into the world. Instead of miracles and merriment the father is longing for His people to return wholeheartedly to Him.

The light of the fire of His love still blazes in His heart and true shalom – peace on earth and goodwill towards men; will maintain its original and prophetic meaning for all those who will believe and receive His miracle gift of salvation in Messiah Yeshua/Jesus of whom the central servant candle the Shamash is a representation.

The Shamash reminds us that we are servants of the LORD Most High. We are privileged to carry His Name, His Light before men, bringing that light into a dark and wicked world. Just as the few men who stood for God against an evil generation.

Chanukah Blessing to the LORD as We Light the Candles

Some words to remember and focus on during this season:

Return, Restoration, Rejoice, Thankfulness, Grateful hearts, Victory, Light of the World and Servanthood.

Light is sown for the righteous and joy for the upright in heart. Ps 97:11

 

Extra helping –

the hidden mystery –

a blueprint for the last days revealed in The season of Hanukkah – dedication or rededication – has the most amazing and specific revelation of end times ever given by the Father.

In scripture there are some things relating to end times in the feast of trumpets and the feast of tabernacles. However Hanukkah holds the most exact precise revelation of what is going to take place and also the strategy of how to overcome in those days.

Daniel prophesied of these times in the old testament saying in chp.12:7; concerning the length of the time; of the temple desecration and oppression by Antiochus. He said it will be for a time, times and half a time, which represents 3 ½ years. He further speaks prophetically in Dan 9:26 about the prince that will come and make a covenant for a week and in the middle of the week will break it middle of 7 is 3 ½.

We read how apparently Messiah celebrated the feast of dedication/Hanukkah in the new testament.

(This is a great witnessing scripture to the Jewish people concerning Messiah.)

Without Hanukkah there would be no Christmas – because without Hanukkah the faith of Israel would have been wiped out; including all the family line through whom Messiah was born.

Rev 11:1, 2 also refers to the gentiles; a time line of 42 months, which is also 3 ½ years. Rev 12:6 also refers to this Hanukkah number of 1,260 days which also = 3 ½ years..

The abomination of desolation was spoken of when the pig was sacrificed in the Temple, which was the reason there had to be a Hanukkah – a rededication.

Also in reference to Messiahs words in Matt 24:15, when you see standing in the holy place the abomination of desolation…..

(when we don’t understand the roots of some of these events, then we miss the truth behind that reference.)

All Jewish people know of these times because it’s a part of their history and it did not require further explanation when Messiah spoke of it, they understood. What He was declaring was that, what happened in Daniel, will happen again, as written in the book of Revelation, so its not a case of ‘either/or’, but both.

By saying this Messiah also seems to give a clear timeline that this will happen before He returns.

The one world system and Israel along with gentile believers will not fit in to the new world order of the antichrist and the beast system. So there will be yet another attempt to destroy all God’s people through persecution.

Hanukkah is a reflection of what is occurring today and also gives a strategy of how to overcome in the end times. The spirit of the antichrist is already working towards requiring worship of the replacement ‘god’.

Eph 2:2. according to the will of the prince of the power of this air, the spirit that now works in the sons of disobedience,

As believers we too must turn away from compromise of the world and go to the Father by re dedicating our lives, take time to fast and pray and as we do, Father will give us the steps to take.

If the light of God is not shining through us – darkness will encroach.

The 1st important message of Hanukkah is for the believers and clearly the Word states that the antichrist will not come except there is a falling away, an apostasy.

2 Thess 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

the changed or altered kingdom in hebrew Strong’s Hebrew: 8132. שָׁנָא (shana or shanah) — to change Phonetic Spelling: shaw-naw

לְהַשְׁנָיָה֙

Change denotes the transition that occurs between one state to another.

ə-haš-nā-yāh to change (strongs 8133) אשְׁנָ Phonetic Spelling: (shen-aw’)

Strong’s Hebrew: 8138. שָׁנָה (shanah) — to repeat, do again

This word meaning, changed, or altered kingdom, used in the Hebrew, Daniel 7:25, described what Antiochus put in place, is the same meaning referring to antichrist, who will also initiate a changed or altered kingdom, perverted, different or unnatural order; over which he can rule, pushing his agenda of the one world system.

He will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people and try to change the set times and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time. He will defy the Most High and oppress the holy people of the Most High. 

Daniel 7:25,

Apostasy, means; to depart from revealed truth, to lead away, seduce, mislead; to defect, to blind the eyes of the people by manipulating the truth; to turn one from the truth. It speaks of a culture that once knew God and has compromised their faith, which is self evident in their lifestyle.

Congruent with a general falling away from the purity of the faith; and a tolerance for things that are against the Bible. People who are wanting a ‘new god’. It’s a rejection of the true God/Christ Messiah, and is the spirit of anti-Christ and it could not be manifest until Christ had actually come because it’s against Christ. So in that respect that spirit has only been working the last 2000 years.

Since the days of Acts until now, there has never been such a strong joining together of Israel and Christian believers.

The One New Man of Eph. 14-16.

Christ Our Peace – For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken … in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace, 

The name Antiochus Epiphanes; Epiphanes means. ‘god manifest’ and it is said he created the statue of Zeus to look like him. This reminds us of the image of the beast as being the same as that of end times and that he was changing and redefining things that are biblically based in society. Making himself as being god, reigning supreme over everything, so that he can do whatever he wants making new laws with no oversight or restriction.

The Zeus legend tells that Zeus took on the form of a bull and carried away a woman called Europa and it is where we get our word Europe from. Here is the representation of end time; the woman on the beast. Rev 17:5 The people of the revived roman empire which turned away from the God they once knew and worshipped. The Europe symbol of today is a woman riding a bull…

Hanukkah and the antichrist is repeating the slow change in society where people begin to call evil good and good evil. Antiochus declared the word of God illegal.

Here is the type of the remnant and the blueprint for victory.

The family of the Maccabees represent the believers who stand against the antichrist spirit and have the victory.

Hanukkah the blueprint of end-times.

1 They decided no compromise, mentally drew a line in the sand, in effect saying, from now on I’m not playing around any more. Not I’ll do it sometime later when I’m not so busy! The challenge of Hanukkah is become what you are called to be NOW.

2 They didn’t care that they were the minority; they were with God and He is bigger than any problematic situation so don’t believe the circumstances cannot be changed, they can.

3 They went against the spirit of the times. They bent their life and circumstances to fit the word of God not the other away around, by bending the Word of God to their desires. They chose not to be like, to resemble in fashion or behave like the world around them.

4 They separated themselves and prepared to engage the enemy. We too are to be separate, yet impact the world around us.

5 They become warriors and turned whatever the enemy sent back against him. Eph. 6:12-16.

And finally they carried on the war joyfully. In Maccabees we read they declared, god has chosen us to do this, and they did it even after the discouragement. Neh. 8:10 and also David encouraged himself. 1sam 30:6.

They lived by and fought by the Word. They knew their God and resisted and they cleansed the Temple’…

‘but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.” Daniel 11:32b

 

Messiah will come and cleanse this world and bring everything back to the Father.

We are to be the…. 

those who smash the works of darkness.

Lights in the darkness is the symbol of the Hanukkah menorah .

End time Israel’s symbol is not so much the star of David but rather the menorah light and it is indicative of an active agent in the world.

Us!

The sum of the Hanukkah message is – God wins and if we are with God, we will always be on the winning side.

Shalom to every reader as we celebrate the light of the world.

A Secret Hidden in a Kings’ Song /Shir HaMelech

“I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine,” –

Song of Songs /Shir HaShirim, 6:3.

Many phrases from The Song of Songs written by King Solomon, have been used in weddings for centuries.

What does it truly mean and why is this particular verse so popular when it comes to weddings?

While reading this think in terms not of an earthly wedding and marriage covenant but of the marriage covenant of the Lamb and wedding feast of the Coming King of Kings.

Solomons Song is a type and shadow of our future when we are finally together with the one whom our soul loves. He gave His life for His bride – US.

It’s a song of redemption, of selfless love that we are learning from Him as we walk along the WAY and we are no longer our own, we are His forever.

Ani Lo & Dodi Li  

I am His & My Beloved is mine

Dodi Li V’Ani Lo – My beloved is mine and I am His

Ani Lo – I am His – it is the summary of all that is required of us.

1Cor.6:19-20 You are not your own; you were bought at a price. 

No human being can stand that unless he is identified with Jesus Christ. We are not sanctified for ourselves. We are called into intimacy with the gospel, and things happen that appear to have nothing to do with us. But God is getting us into fellowship with Himself. Let Him have His way. If you refuse, you will be of no value to God in His redemptive work in the world, but will be a hindrance and a stumbling block.

The first thing God does is get us grounded on strong reality and truth. He does this until our cares for ourselves individually have been brought into submission to His way for the purpose of His redemption. O. Chambers.

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Galatians 2:20

 

However the secret to fulfilling that, is, Dodi Li – that our beloved is truly ours.

In the Hebrew tradition of Israel during the wedding ceremony, the Bride must say Dodi Lo, prior to saying, Ani Lo.

This is because she must first have the apocalypse/revelation that her beloved belongs to her, then the easier it will be and the more she will be able to and want to give herself to her beloved and visa versa.

Here-in is the secret to living our life in Yeshua Messiah, our bridegroom. If we receive His love for us we will easily give our love to Him. The more understanding we gain of Dodi Lo, that He is ours, the more our lives will become, Ani Lo/His. The deeper the personal apocalypse/revealing, the easier it will be for us to yield our lives to Him completely. This in turn will bring spiritual intimacy to our relationship, changing our perspective and causing the desire to surrender to His Will, Plan and Purpose for our lives and not live for ourselves and our own future goals. 

If he is hers, she will be his and if she is his, he will be hers. It’s reciprocal and complimentary at the same time.

Likewise, if He is ours we will be His and if we are His then He will be ours.

Many have pointed out that the initials of the words in this phrase spell out “Elul”…

Any new Jewish month (a lunar month) has special prayers such as Hallel, especially for weddings. Traditionally a bride and groom are to fast on their wedding day. However, there is an exception: Rosh Chodesh.

And this month’s new month of Elul, has a lot of meaningful significance in Judaism.

If it’s on Rosh Chodesh Elul, it means the bride and groom wouldn’t have to fast, as some couples customarily do.

So as already mentioned, many say that Elul אלול stands for “Ani L’Dodi V’Dodi Li” ״אני לדודי ודודי לי״ which means “I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine.

This phrase is very popular within both Jewish and non-Jewish weddings.

When reading the entire poem, it is a beautiful love story between a man and a woman. Relationships are always based on give and take, and one of equality between both partners – a balance. So too, a husband and wife should always give and receive love and support.

Often this is read as a metaphor of the love between the Jewish people/grafted in believers and God. 

There’s a Hebrew word that means soul mate.

also meaning – Meant to be.

Natural soul mates are only temporary on earth, God is our basheret, our true soul mate, He is the real lover of our souls.

In Messiah, our Dodi Li will manifest our Ani Lo. He belongs to us and the more we receive His love for us the more we will give of ourselves to Him.

As we open our hearts to fully understand Dodi Lo, our lives will become the reflection of Ani Lo, belonging completely to Him. Then, how we live and what we do, will no longer be a fleshly struggle of the soul; it will be easy, for it will flow out from His love.

An Ani Lo life, is the result of a Dodi Li heart, for the knowledge that He is ours creates that life of divine love.

As the bride of Yeshua we are to say and know, that as we fill our hearts with this Dodi Li understanding – our lives will soon become Ani Lo.

My beloved is to me and I am to Him –

My Beloved is Mine and I am His –

Simply Dodi Li V’Ani Lo

This is in a nutshell everything required of us in God.

It’s the foundation of everything we are to be and do in Him.

It encompasses our calling, consecration, dedication, works, sacrifices, ministry. As we are in covenant with Him we have to honor that covenant form our side too.

Just as when God called to Moses,

Moses reply was the correct covenant response. It was immediate and he did not hesitate. We are to be as quick to respond when He speaks to us – no hesitation – just simple obedience. He will never ask us to do anything that He has not equipped us to do.

May the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. Heb.13:21 & Eph.4:22

Hineni expresses readiness to give ourselves in total availability. This answer will mark a turning point in the lives of those of us who respond to The Father with this word.

Moses wasn’t the only one to say Hineni:

Samuel said Hineni – I’m listening.

Isaiah said Hineni – Send me.

Hineni is the right WAY to respond to our Heavenly Father whenever He calls, it should always be our desire to fulfill His Commands in directing the path for our lives.

All that remains is for us to surrender all to our beloved and cry…

It is Complete Surrender – The Covenant Call to Action.

Here Am I

Your will be done in our lives.

I will go where you go lead me because

And I have Found The Secret Hidden in a Kings Song /Shir HaMelech it’s…

Ani L’Dodi V’Dodi Li.

Please don’t leave this page without knowing Messiah is not only your Savior, Lord and soon returning King but He is also your beloved and His desire is for us to be His Beloved.. to have a personal relationship with Him.

Maybe it’s time to re-dedicate and re-ignite passion for our Bridegroom.

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

You are greatly loved and precious in His sight.

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.
