Thank you for your feedback on last week’s drash.

Yes, I think you are on target there.  In order to possess (or inherit) the
promise, we must diligently seek.  That means getting off our thumbs and
taking action.

Aim at nothing and you’ll always hit it.

Would you like me to add your name and email address to the weekly email
list to get notification of the drash each week as soon as it is published?

Elohiym is Spirit

Elohiym is Spirit, and those who worship Him, must worship Him with [their created] spirit, and in truth. John 4:24 Elohiym is SPIRIT, and He breathed a created spirit into man, so that He could have intimate communion with His creation. And our created spirit communes with HIS eternal self-existant SPIRIT, as believers pray in the spirit. This is the intimate communion for which we were created, and the enemy wants to steal from us.

Belief

Belief, confession, faith, baptism, are all key aspects unto a renewed life, and a release from the bondage of sin. Yet two things are constantly under attack:

  1. Baptism
  2. The Name.

Both are considered unnecessary or optional in religion today. Yet those of us who believe the scriptures are clothed with His Name in baptism. And are made overcomers by our profession and confession. And we rejoice to obey HIS voice and to imitate our Master Yeshua, by living by the same law and instructions which HE lived by. May Yah bless you.

Something must be done

Everyone agrees that something must be done, but the U.S.A. cannot agree on what. And it is politically incorrect to suggest the obvious. America must return to YaHVaH the God of Israel, and mourn weep and turn from her many sins. All other answers fall short, and will accomplish little , except lead to a loss of freedom. Yet outside of YaHVaH there is no freedom. May you walk in the liberty of Yeshua, by obeying the laws of YaHVaH the Father.

Thanksgiving

Thank you YaHVaH for demonstrating your power in our lives through your set apart Spirit, and the blood of Yah your word who has appeared unto us as our salvation, as Yeshua. There are so many ways you have worked in our lives, for which we have not been thankful enough, nor even acknowledged. So we take time now to offer you thanksgiving and praise for all your works.
