No Post This Week
My apologies to the MVF family for not being able to provide comments on this weeks Torah Study. My week slipped away from me. Though I do want to encourage you to consider the theme of this week, which is to build a tabernacle. Ask yourself these questions: 1. How can I build a tabernacle to Yahweh, what does it entail, and what can I bring? 2. Is it possible for me to build a tabernacle without Yeshua? 3. How can the tabernacle of my heart become Kadosh or holy.”
Be blessed this Sabbath, Rollyn
Pearls in Torah
It seems like that no matter where we look, there is someone behind a “curtain of oz,” promoting false ideas or misleading perceptions. How can we guard ourselves from doing the same thing?
How Important are Details Anyway?
The passages describing the workings of Tabernacle, its services, its structure, and those who cared for it, are so full of details that they are often perceived as some of the most boring parts of the Torah. Yet these detailed commands are repeated over and over again. Why?
Have you ever wanted to be deemed important? For most, a title can give status. A designated name seems to give permission to assume importance or authority. But, in reality is a title overly significant? Personally, I almost think it is detrimental, in that onlookers can easily size up an individual to see if the title truly belongs to the person wearing the badge. In this week’s study, Israel is called to be a priesthood. Do they measure up? And what does Yeshua tell us about becoming a priest today?
B’shalach means, “when he let go.” The study refers to Pharaoh, who finally releases Israel so that they can leave the chains of slavery. But what will happen to Israel when they leave their land of bondage? Will they (you) be able to accept freedom? Will they (you) be able to walk in faith towards a new way of living; or will they (you) accept a chain of false belief?
Like many of you, I believe this last week has been full of spirit directed assignments in giving ministry to others. In following The Spirit, I was blessed to see what is “really important” and was directed back to an article I wrote last year regarding “Bo” meaning to enter or go. I hope this article continues to bless you as much as it has blessed me.
Still Blaming Others?
After some 15 years, I still remember some amazing words given to me from my master teacher while completing certification in Life Coaching. He basically stressed the idea that we should always pay attention to circumstances given to us, in that these very circumstances are God’s way of drawing our attention to our own “challenges.” He went on to clarify that when our issues are addressed, we will be better equipped to coach others. How true!
“I don’t witness well, others can see my good works, but don’t ask me to talk to anyone!”
Does this statement ring a bell? Come on. Admit it. At some time or another we have either stated it out loud or even under our breath. Why do we? And when we do, can we overcome this statement? I believe both Exodus and the New Testament give us some clear answers this week on how to be amazed over being worried.
Is Prophecy in Hebrew letters?
Common denominators of evil are becoming rapidly transparent in the world today. A New World Order of artificial intelligence built entirely on lies and deception seeks to destroy life, bringin us to a “famine in the land” devoid of Yahweh and His Laws, in an effort to create a new god. Can the agenda be stopped and if not, what are we to do? Again, I believe Jacob and Joseph provide an answer through the letters of their names.
What are the Purposes of Yahweh?
For many, it’s hard to come clean. Our pride gets in the way when we become compelled to admit our belief system may be flawed or that a participative action was misplaced. When this happens, some of us may just confess, but the temptation to skirt the admission and to offer a solution of friendship can be easier. When Judah and his brothers are threatened by Egypt, does Judah come near to Joseph to save face or is the issue prophetically deeper?
