Shemot (Exodus) 6:2 – 9:35 Yechezkel (Ezekiel) 28:25 – 29:21 Romans 9:14-33 Like a wild horse, something inside of me does not want to submit to the hands of a master.  Most people don’t like being told what to do, especially if it’s by tyrants. Everyone I know wants to be free of the hands…

The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that…

Over the years, there has been a phrase passed down through the ages, “Behind every great man is a great woman.”  The first printed citation I can find of ‘Behind every great man there’s a great woman’ is from the Texas newspaper The Port Arthur News, from February 1946. This was headed – “Meryl Frost –…

Have you ever wondered how you might die?  No, I’m not being morbid in asking this question.  I think most of us have asked ourselves questions about death. Sometimes it’s as simple as, “Will people attend my funeral?  But many times, it’s a deeper question like, “Will I be able to say what I need…

This beginning phrase describing VaYigash, makes me want to know who “he” is. What about you? For those who are students of the Torah, they would recognize this title as belonging to an action done by Judah.

Are you longing for a rest?  If you have been fortunate enough to ever go on a vacation, I’m sure you would agree it’s on the 3rd day you finally feel “rested” enough to enjoy the break; and on the 7th day, you’re to the point of staying.  Have you ever considered how these time…

“You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life, and it is these that bear witness of Me, and you are unwilling to come to Me that you may have life.”  John 5:39-40 These are the words of Yeshua as he confronted the “learned” scholars of the Torah.  Imagine being…

Vayetze – And He Went Out – Dec 3, 2022 As our present world comes to an end, we are told that there will be a tribulation period called “Jacob’s trouble.”  In Jeremiah 30, we can read about Jacob’s distress. But starting at verse 10, we are told that YHWH will save Jacob from a…

This last weekend, I was privileged to sing for a household who were celebrating the life of their family patriarch; a man who was husband, father, and grandfather.   Besides the large crowd of spectators, the family generations had extended to over 50 people.  It was amazing to witness the similarities in physical looks, characteristics, and…

Ok, I admit it.  My faith is being shaken.  Where is Yahweh anyway?  We have prayed for healing, for our nation, for circumstances to change, for blessings, and yes, for people to come to their senses.  Will He ever appear?  Will He show Himself when we cry out to Him? Abraham’s faith is tested in…
