Greetings Family of The Most High God!

His word is the fuel for our bodies to absorb His Ruach haKodesh (Holy Spirit)!

Pray this;

Father, I want to hold you up as number 1. I want to love you more than anyone. Help me put you First in my life and show me the clear way to remain in your care.

I will trust in Your WORD.

A decree was made approximately 1,700 years ago, to honor the gods of the roman empire. The Roman empire declared that Sunday is the day of the venerable sun. They put many to death because of it. They purportedly made a deal with the leaders of Judaism, controlled by the religion of the Pharisees, which is called the “oral torah� based upon the Scripture taken out of context in Deuteronomy 30:12, Lo bashamayim hi, the rulers of Judaism have made this concept their alter. They created thousands of rulings and additional “regulations� in addition to the Holy Scriptures, in direct violation of God’s Word. Paul referred to it as: the handwritten ordinances which are contrary to us.

I hope you will try to see this for the truth it contains. This is what Paul spoke against when he talked about “the works of the law� � oral torah, “trusting in works� � oral torah, “justified by the law� � oral torah.

These verses are a continual testimony of the absolute incredible mercy The Father has for His people. Can you see how the lo ba’shamayim hi (it’s not in heaven) concept is taken out of context? If you do, you’re blessed!

If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of יְהוָֹה thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, and if thou turn unto יְהוָֹה thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul. For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off.

It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?

Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it? But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it. (Deut 30:10-14)

And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, has he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. (Col 2:13-15)

ORAL TORAH = The inventions of the Jews of EXTRA rules and regulations, that are NOT sanctioned by The Most High, and the oral torah is NOT GOOD! Yeshua told them it was foolishness.

TORAH = EXCELLENT! Remember Paul in Romans 6:

SIN is defined as the transgression of the torah/commandments. Torah is synonomous with Commandments. Sin = breaking the commandments are not following the Torah. Knowing that, read what Paul says:

What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? (Rom 6:1-2)

Dead to sin, means that you are not involved in sins any more. Meaning, that you follow the torah, God’s instruction. If you sin, miss the mark, you get back up and walk on the path again with Yeshua.

I pray that you will understand that these handwritten ordinances are actually the oral torah, based upon lo bashamayim hi. Look it up. The oral torah is the works of the law that was spoken against. Yeshua NEVER spoke against “the Torah�. The Torah is God’s instruction to man. Torah literally means = instruction.

Yeshua came and made it a habit to rebuke the oral torah. He taught that we ought to follow the torah, which is pure, simple and a blessing to those who walk in it.

There is one assembly (church) Messiah is returning for. He has one Torah. In it, we are told, that we are to Shomer (guard) the Sabbath day. Levitcus 23 goes on to mention the feasts (appointed times) of the year which The Most High calls His appointed times.

I encourage you to read all of Leviticus 23. Trust in יְהוָֹה with all your heart and don’t lean toward your own understanding. Acknowledge Him in all your ways and He WILL DIRECT YOUR PATHS. We are supposed to be on the path with Him, walking in right ways.

And יְהוָֹה spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of יְהוָֹה, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts. Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of יְהוָֹה in all your dwellings. (Lev 23:1-3)

Please consider the simplicity of God’s instructions and the happiness of knowing you’re following Him, on the path.

The Roman empire’s decree had major influence on the council of Laodicea. They said: The day of rest would now be sun-day.

However, The Most High told us that He doesn’t change. For I am יְהוָֹה, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. (Mal 3:6)

So shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. (Isa 55:11)

These nations that didn’t know The Most High, who worshiped the sun, the planets and the deities of the Greeks and Romans didn’t understand that The Most High gave one day over another and said, this is the day you shall set apart, to rest from your labors and have a mikra kodesh (set apart gathering).

I often explain this to folks to help them understand the seriousness of obeying The Most High by following His WORD.

If it’s important to The Most High, it should be important for those who say they believe The Father’s report He left for us, by His prophets.

If you believe Jesus died for your sins, you should make an effort to stop sinning, stop breaking His commandments and develop your relationship with him with truthful meaning. Be zealous for Him and He will help you to understand His WORD more fully.

What will you do when the world is scoffing at the 2 witnesses who the whole world will hate? Pray that you will be accounted worthy to stand before (with) the Son of Man.

elow is a series of verses that clearly show The Most High is going to save a small remnant of obedient believers out of great tribulation.

Great tribulation is the final part of the 3.5 years, which occurs, "more than likely" (it’s not clear when exactly), after the 2 witnesses have finished their testimony and are killed. But it definitely happens after the abomination of desolation:

Matt 24:15: When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)... ...

The same point continues and is expounded upon, and at verse 22 it says: And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

To understand what is being said here, you need to read Daniel 12. Just as the scripture in Matthew 24:15 WARNS us, whoso reads, let him understand, that we should understand Daniel’s words regarding the abomination of desolation to “understand� what is being said in Matthew 24.

When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso reads, let him understand:) (Matt 24:15)

Now let’s get to what Daniel was being told and look at the days he is told.

Daniel is not understanding what the angel tells him. So the angel explained to him, the gist of it all;

And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days. Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days. (Dan 12:11-12)

1,335th day is the return of Messiah. However, since the days are shortened, we don’t know the exact day. Only the Father knows the exact day and hour He will send Yeshua back to save His people!

Let’s discuss the event we are to watch for. The daily sacrifice being taken away, or the continual offering being stopped. Follow along here;

Daily sacrifice = Tamid soor = Continual offering First the word sacrifice is added by the translators. Let’s look at the Hebrew:

The word is used to describe Daily sacrifice is Tamid.

H8548 תָּמִיד tamiyd (taw-meed') n-m. 1. (properly) continuance (as indefinite extension). 2. (but used only attributively as adjective) constant. 3. (also, adverbially) constantly. 4. (elliptically) the regular (daily) sacrifice. [from an unused root meaning to stretch] KJV: alway(-s), continual (employment, -ly), daily, (n-)ever(-more), perpetual.

And, the tamid will be soor. Taken away.

H5493 סוּר cuwr (soor) v. שׂוּר suwr (soor) [Hosea 9:12] to turn off (literal or figurative). [a primitive root] KJV: be(-head), bring, call back, decline, depart, eschew, get (you), go (aside), X grievous, lay away (by), leave undone, be past, pluck away, put (away, down), rebel, remove (to and fro), revolt, X be sour, take (away, off), turn (aside, away, in), withdraw, be without.

So: the place of continual offering taking place is going to be stopped, taken away.

Can you think of somewhere on earth where the people that believe He exists go to pray to Him? Continually?

The Kotel. The Western Wailing Wall. Keep it in mind.

(Matt 24:22) Read matthew 24, Daniel 12, Revelation 11 to understand what will happen and the timing of it.

Then read Rev 6:6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

Isaiah 59:16 So shall they fear the name of יְהוָֹה from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of יְהוָֹה shall lift up a standard against him.

Isaiah 65:8 Thus saith יְהוָֹה, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy them all.

And Ezek 5:3:

Thou shalt also take thereof a few in number, and bind them in thy skirts. (Ezek 5:3)

The Most High has a plan to save a small remnant of His people who:

Keep His commandments and have the testimony of Yeshua, meaning, Yeshua is my saviour, my King, my Deliverer and He it is who saves me!

I pray these words are a blessing to you and that you would look into these prospects of following Him more perfectly and find the energy He will deliver to sustain you.
