Shabbat Shalom


                     Exodus 20:8-11

"Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. "Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath of the LORD your God; in it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant or your cattle or your sojourner who stays with you.


"For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.

Good Morning And Shalom:

Today, most people have off of work and school for the weekend. During the week we get a lot of the things done that is needed to provide for Families and to fulfill our obligations and goals. However , the weekend comes , most of these types of regular duties stop. many of us don't take a break . We try to catch up on everything else that is needed to be done: groceries, lawn maintenance, Homework and even work over the weekend Etc.

Its great that we take are able to have so much to do, However, what's even more important  is to rest. To really take a mental and physical break.

I do remember when being very young and for as I can recall, visiting my grandparents on Saturdays . They were conservative Jews. They didn't turn the lights on or do any work. We would go swimming in there pool and would have a nice kosher lunch. It was something I used to love. They always had the food prepared from the local deli and was ready to go.

Isn't it interesting that these simple things had a life long lasting impression? That's the same with God , our heavenly Father. He wants us to rest , however not just rest but rest in Him. To take time out from all our thoughts and concerns and just enjoy what He has made for us to enjoy. To give Him thanks for it as well. To enjoy the company that we keep and take a break , one day each week.

All of our concerns , worries, frustrations will still be present , after we take a break, however, If we know God has made our day to  be glad and rejoice in it, to not to worry about tomorrow because each day has enough in it by itself , and we are to rest and to Know He is God, then all that will matter , is the Joy you will receive and the peace of God that will supersede all our understanding.

You see its simple math, sort off speaking; all of our concerns, worries , fears cannot go with you when you pass on from this life. They will not be remembered and or taken into account that you do now. So simply let go and let God. God ordains it and He also rested , so if its important for Him and its important for Him to us , then it should be also important within us.

Have a great weekend and be blessed . Amen!

The comfort of a Mothers Womb




Lamentations 3:22-23 (AMP)

It is because of the Lord’s loving kindnesses that we are not consumed,
Because His [tender] compassions never fail. They are new every morning;
Great and beyond measure is Your faithfulness.

חַֽסְדֵי יְהוָה כִּי לֹא־תָמְנוּ כִּי לֹא־כָלוּ רַחֲמָֽיו׃

חֲדָשִׁים לַבְּקָרִים רַבָּה אֱמוּנָתֶֽךָ׃

 

Shalom and Good Morning:

 

I wanted to share with you an understanding and a description of who God is and how He Loves us more then we know and understand. I found it in the Hebrew language.

Have you been broken, hurt, ashamed, depressed, feeling of guilt, worried, nervous, weak, et al. ?

I’m here to let you know that none of these things will separate you from Gods love. In fact, God wants you to know He’s pulling for you and wanting you to see His plan for you. Through these tough times, He wants you to know that all He wants you to do is repent of the sin, meaning turn away from it. Ask for Help from the Lord in dealing with it, and get back up and keep it moving forward in Him.

Proverbs 24:16 (AMP)
For a righteous man falls seven times, and rises again,
But the wicked stumble in time of disaster and collapse.

So to understand how great God’s love for you and me, can be found here in Lamentations 3:22 with the word used in the English from the Hebrew “Compassion.”

רַחַם

Strong’s definition for this word is the following:

racham, rakh'-am; from H7355; compassion (in the plural); by extension, the womb (as cherishing the fetus); by implication, a maiden:—bowels, compassion, damsel, tender love, (great, tender) mercy, pity, womb.

I’m not sure if you caught this, His compassion for us is the same as extension of a mother’ womb for her unborn child.
I would say that is pretty deep compassion. As mother with child in the womb. The child is given everything possible that it could need inside the womb. Protection, nutrients, warmth, and love.

Every day that we wake up in the morning, Gods loves for us is an extension of a mother’s womb for us. Everything that we need He wants to provide for us. Although trying times will come and they will go, as mother nurturers her child in the womb, so he does for us. That is what it means, and that’s how you apply it for yourself in your life and to be shared with others.
A mother that is expecting is always caring for herself, so she can care for her child. That is how much He loves you.

The enemy of God and Christ, doesn’t want you to get this or understand this. He wants you to be kept in fear, depression worry guilt and shame.

God required in the Torah the atonement for sin. The Temple had been destroyed. The sacrifice of animals was only a shadow of How’s God atonement for sin is fulfilled in Yeshua Hamoshiach (Jesus Christ).

Our daily repentance of sin is that payment. It doesn’t mean you have a ticket to sin it means that its paid for and that your seeking the Lord for help from it. It allows you to bring it to the Lord instead of the accuser bringing the charge. Being that’s so, your discipline is from the Lord will build his righteousness in you. Then you can know his comfort because your surrender to him and his discipline will be your strength in Him. Psalm 23 is that promise. Amen!

 

Be encouraged, take hold of His promises. Be Blessed !!!!
