Repentance

Repentance #1

Scripture

And seeing this, Peter answered to the people, Men, Israelites, why do you marvel at this one? Or why do you stare at us, as if by our own power or godliness we have made him to walk? The "God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob," "the God of our fathers," glorified His child Jesus, whom you delivered up, and denied Him in the presence of Pilate, that one having decided to set Him free. But you denied the Holy and Just One, and asked for a man, a murderer, to be granted to you. And the Author of Life you killed, whom God raised up from the dead, of which we are witnesses. And on the faith of His name, this one whom you see and know was made firm by His name, and the faith which came through Him gave to him this complete soundness before you all. And now, brothers, I know that you acted according to ignorance, as also did your rulers. But what things God before proclaimed through the mouth of all His prophets, that the Christ should suffer, He fulfilled in this manner. Therefore, repent, and convert, for the blotting out of your sins, so that times of refreshing may come from the face of the Lord, and that He may send forth the One before proclaimed to you, Jesus Christ, whom Heaven truly needs to receive until the times of restoration of all things, of which God spoke through the mouth of all His holy prophets from the age past. For Moses indeed said to the fathers, "The Lord your God will raise up to you a Prophet from among your brothers, One like me; you shall hear Him according to all things," whatever He may speak to you. 
(Act 3:12-22 LITV)

{See Deut. 18:15-16, 19}

(see Ex. 3:15)

26 And He made from one [common origin, one source, one blood] all nations of men to settle on the face of the earth, having definitely determined [their] allotted periods of time and the fixed boundaries of their habitation (their settlements, lands, and abodes),27 So that they should seek God, in the hope that they might feel after Him and find Him, although He is not far from each one of us.28 For in Him we live and move and have our being; as even some of your [own] poets have said, For we are also His offspring.29 Since then we are God’s offspring, we ought not to suppose that Deity (the Godhead) is like gold or silver or stone, [of the nature of] a representation by human art and imagination, or anything constructed or invented. 30 Such [former] ages of ignorance God, it is true, ignored and allowed to pass unnoticed; but now He charges all people everywhere to repent ([d]to change their minds for the better and heartily to amend their ways, with abhorrence of their past sins),31 Because He has fixed a day when He will judge the world righteously (justly) by a Man Whom He has destined and appointed for that task, and He has made this credible and given conviction and assurance and evidence to everyone by raising Him from the dead.32 Now when they had heard [that there had been] a resurrection from the dead, some scoffed; but others said, We will hear you again about this matter.   (Acts 17:26-32 AMPC)

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom; A good understanding have all those who do His . commandments. His Praise endures forever. (Ps 111:10 NKJ)

Repentance

During this season let us return to our Lord with fear and trembling. Our Lord is a consuming fire and He is thrice Holy! We see recorded in Scripture how Isaiah stood in the Lord's Presence with awe. He saw the Lord High and Lifted Up! While he watched; the angels, the seraphim cried out Holy! Holy! Holy! Is the Lord of Hosts! The whole earth is full of His Glory!

Who is there like unto Him? He alone is God! Besides Him there is no other! He is the Lord God Almighty! Hear the Lord say to us; "Come up hither! Draw near to Me and I shall draw near to you! Take My yoke upon you; Come to Me; you whom are heavy laden; And I will give you rest!" Come stand in His Awesome Presence! Be bathed in His Love. His Goodness and Love draws us closer toward Him! Yes His Goodness & Mercy, endures forever.

We are to remember to choose and repent on behalf of our families and their bloodline (ie our bloodline). We need to repent on behalf of the sins of our forefathers, our nation, our country and our peoples. Yeah it may even mean repenting on behalf of our nation's leaders. We 're reminded in Scripture; to pray for all people eve'rywhere. E'en though we do not necessary agree.

First of all, I encourage you to make petitions, prayers, intercessions, and prayers of thanks for all people, for rulers, and for everyone who has authority over us. Pray for these people so that we can have a quiet and peaceful life always lived in a godly and reverent way. This is good and pleases God our Savior. He wants all people to be saved and to learn the truth. There is one God. There is also one mediator between God and humans-a human, Christ Jesus. He sacrificed himself for all people to free them from their sins. This message is valid for every era. I was appointed to spread this Good News and to be an apostle to teach people who are not Jewish about faith and truth. I'm telling you the truth. I'm not lying. I want men to offer prayers everywhere. They should raise their hands in prayer after putting aside their anger and any quarrels they have with anyone.(1Ti 2:1-8 GW)

Remember when Daniel prayed he enquired of the Lord icw the future of his nation. He had also studied the word given Jeremiah, by the Lord as to the future of Israel. While praying, interceding for his nation he repented on behalf of Israel's sin and the sin of her fathers and forefathers. He therefore  could also read the times and seasons as the Lord revealed them to him.

Through diligent study of the Word (Scriptures), we are able to understand the times and seasons; the reason for repentance. Especially while studying Jeremiah. He (Daniel) came across the Word of the Lord concerning Israel's deliverance from Babylon. Meanwhile he interceded repenting on behalf of his people Israel. Through his repentant intercession, the Lord revealed to Daniel the future of what is about to take place. Surely our Lord would not do anything,without first letting His secrets be known to His servants the prophets (see Amos 3:7).

 Cry to the Lord

I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah. I laid me down slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.(Psa 3:4-5 KJV-BRG)

David knew from first hand experience, what is meant by repentance. Though he would be anointed king in Saul's steed, he was known as a man after God's own heart.Through his many years he had built a steady relationship with YHVH! When he messed up he soon repented. We see this clearly illustrated in his life. When he sinned with Bathsheba, schemed against his most trustworthy soldier.

After this adulterous affair; he thought he could hide his iniquitous actions. The Lord, being all knowing was aware of David's, treacherous wrongdoing against both Uriah and Bathsheba.Therefore, He sent Nathan to reprimand  David, icw his sinful actions. When confronted with the truth and destruction of his actions; David quickly repented. He confessed his sin and in due course the Lord restored him. We see his repentant heart and prayer found in Ps 51_ _

Create in Me a Clean Heart, O God

To the chief musician,

A Psalm of David when Nathan the prophet came to him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba.

Be gracious to me, O God, according to Your loving-kindness, according to the multitude of Your tender mercies; blot out my transgressions. Wash me completely from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I know my transgressions; and my sin is ever before me. Against You, You only, I have sinned, and done evil in Your eyes; that You might be justified in Your speaking and be clear when You judge. Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin my mother conceived me. Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts; and in the hidden parts You teach me wisdom. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Cause me to hear joy and gladness; the bones You have crushed will rejoice. Hide Your face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me out from Your presence, and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit. Then I will teach transgressors Your ways; and sinners will turn back to You. Deliver me from the guilt of shedding blood, O God, O God of my salvation; my tongue shall sing aloud of Your righteousness. O Lord, open my lips and my mouth shall declare Your praise. For you do not desire sacrifice, or I would give it; You do not delight in burnt offering. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise. Do good in Your good pleasure to Zion; build the walls of Jerusalem. Then You shall be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole offering; then they shall offer bulls on Your altar. (Psa 51:1-19 LITV)

"From this Psalm we are able to see how David could say; "I cried unto the Lord, with my voice, and He heard me out of His Holy Hill! Selah_" (Ps 3:4-5 NKJ).Though he had many setbacks, he could say "the Lord heard, healed and restored me!"

We find several examples throughout Scripture. Repentance remains a vitally important issue in our daily walk with G-d. Without repentance (i.e. genuine, true repentance) in our life the Lord is unable to do much. As said earlier G-d is thrice Holy! Sin cannot survive in His Holy Presence! For real true Salvation to take place; there needs to be true, genuine repentance.

Now what is repentance? A fairly good question in deed! Through this brief study; we shall try answering this question, to the best of our ability. Scripture clearly speaks about this matter. The Lord clearly tells us, the Holy Spirit is able to train us in all these matters. This is why we need to remain teachable at all times. He promises to show us great wondrous things, when we diligently, urgently seek Him. As we daily seek to know drawing near to Him; He promises to draw near to us.

He regularly desires to fellowship with us! For so Great is His Love! But our sins come between Him and us. These can build a wall of separation between G-d & us! Therefore we need to be living continuously in a repentant spirit. David knew this that is why he immediately repented of his foolishness, once confronted with his sin.

Repentance means a 180￮ turn around from the way we are living. It means a lifestyle change. Before repentance there is the need of confession. Confession takes place before repentance. The two go together. The one needs the other. These two are required before Salvation is able to take place in our life. True repentance also bring us to  the point of Salvation through Christ Jesus in our life..

When we as a people whom are called by His Name, humble ourselves; pray, repent from our wicked ways  seek the Lord's Face confess our sins. He is sure to hear from heaven and heal our land, our nation , our peoples. (More to follow later)

Return to the Lord

I also had undergone similar situations in my life. When our Lord saved me I had prepared myself to go all the way with Him. Yet to my shame I missed it. Started giving up, yet our Lord ever remains faithful. When and where others wrote me off, our Lord had not once done so.
Instead He says, ” I’ll ne’er leave you nor shall I forsake yo. I am with you always; e’en till the end of the age. ” ’tis so easy to write someone off if they do not meet your standards. But our Lord ne’er did. He could of destroyed Israel long ago, yet He is God of Covenant! He made His Covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob! (later Israel)!
Our Lord e’en today still keeps and honours His Word above His Name. Giving everyone an equal opportunity, for Repentance, Deliverance and Salvation!
He could’ve written off Simon (later changing his name from Simon which means reed to Peter [Cephas]; meaning small rock or stone). Yet once more , though Peter denied Him thrice, our Lord restored him back to his full title authority and position.
Remember Scripture clearly says our Lord would not break a bruised reed. neither put out a smoking flax. What do we mean? Do I hear one ask.
Our Lord came to heal, find and save that which is lost. He always Loves us, yet hates the sin, wickedness, evil we allow in our lives. He gives every person, man or woman an equal chance for repentance, Forgiveness and Salvation It is His will that none should perish, but that all may be saved, repented, restored , forgiven. He paid for us with His Life. Crucified, sacrificed for us to have life, and life abundant (more of this later).
A medical practitioner (doctor, nurse, sister or matron) are placed there through legislation, to heal, care, watch the sick, despite what their patients background may be. Even so our Lord came to die on our behalf, rising again to heal and restore peoples and nations! He wishes to restore all mankind to their original state and relationship with their (our ) Creator. Hearken, heed, hear, listen for His calling for us to return to Him. His ear is always open to hear. (His arm not to short to save).
Call unto Him while He still can be found. He came to seek and save that which is lost (as mentioned earlier). ” The hour is near! The time short! Return to me o faithless people. My arm is not to short, to heal, to save to deliver. The sick need a doctor!”
As sinners we need to repent; return to the Lord before the Great and Awesome day which lies ahead. “Return to Me o backsliding children! Return afore it is too late! When you call, or when you cry unto Me I shall hear.”
“Those called by My Name; when you repent, humble yourselves, pray; confess your sin, seek My Face, turn from your wicked ways, Then I shall hear from Heaven, Forgive your sin and Heal your land!” (See 2 Chron 7:14).

Chapter Six

The Wilderness Files (Syndrome)

Scripture

7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: Today, if you will hear His voice, 8Do not harden your hearts, as [happened] in the rebellion [of Israel] and their provocation and embitterment [of Me] in the day of testing in the wilderness, 9 Where your fathers tried [My patience] and tested [My forbearance] and found I stood their test, and they saw My works for forty years. (Heb3:7-9 AMPC).1
10 And so I was provoked (displeased and sorely grieved) with that generation, and said, They always err and are led astray in their hearts, and they have not perceived or recognized My ways and become progressively better and more experimentally and intimately acquainted with them.11 Accordingly, I swore in My wrath and indignation, They shall not enter into My rest.12[Therefore be-ware] brethren, take care, lest there be in any one of you a wicked, unbelieving heart [which refuses to cleave to, trust in, and rely on Him], leading you to turn away and desert or stand aloof from the living God.13 But instead warn (admonish, urge, and encourage) one another every day, as long as it is called Today, that none of you may be hardened [into settled rebellion] by the deceitfulness of sin [by the fraudulence, the stratagem, the trickery which the delu-sive glamour of his sin may play on him].14For we [c]have become fellows with Christ (the Messiah) and share in all He has for us, if only we hold our first new-born confidence and original assured expectation [in virtue of which we are believers] firm and unshaken to the end.

15 Then while it is [still] called To-day, if you would hear His voice and when you hear it, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion [in the desert, when the people provoked and irritated and embittered God against them].16For who were they who heard and yet were rebellious and provoked [Him]? Was it not all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses? 17And with whom was He irritated and provoked and grieved for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose dismembered bodies were strewn and left in the desert? 18And to whom did He swear that they should not enter His rest, but to those who disobeyed [who had not listened to His word and who refused to be compliant or be persuaded]? 19 So we see that they were not able to enter [into His rest]; because of their unwillingness to adhere to and trust in and rely on God [unbelief had shut them out. (See Heb 3:7-19 AMPC)


Without Faith

Through our entire life, we need to seek the Kingdom of God first and His Righteousness; then all these things shall be added unto us. Whoever calls upon His Name shall not be ashamed. Therefore, Yaakov arose and sought the Lord His God for an answer; His Leading for the Lord’s next step to take place in his life. The Lord our God is constantly ordering our steps. Our lives been continually directed by and through His Word. He daily directs our steps!
While in the land of their captivity Israel called all his children to draw near to him. He was to declare over them God’s Blessings, that which would take place in the near future, and their latter years, nearing the end of the age. He revealed to them both God’s Blessing and His promise for them and their descendants. He would prophetically reveal to them God’s response, toward them including their promised deliverance.
Before going down to Egypt (Mitsrayim), the Lord appeared to him at Beersheba giving him the sure Word of Promise. The Lord told him, he would see his beloved son. Further God confirmed His Earlier Promise, which He made with Abraham. Once more, God reminds Yisrael includ-ing all who believe on His Name that He is the Rewarder of them whom diligently seek Him (see Heb 11:1-5).
He called for Yoseph to appear before him. He was about to speak God’s blessing over him and both his sons (Manasseh & Ephraim). The Lord gave Yisrael an encouraging word, saying he would see Yoseph before his passing. He would also see his grandsons.
On seeing Ephraim and Manasseh, he asked Yoseph about them. An-swering his father, he said they are the children with, whom the Lord had blessed him. While blessing them he adopted them giving them both an inherited portion with the rest of his sons. Further placing upon them the names of his fathers Abraham, Isaac and his own names (Yisrael & Yaakov).
Now before Jacob’s (Israel’s) passing, he called his children to him. It would be crucial for all of them to be present. The Lord was about to re-veal to Israel, what would take place in due course. He would reveal to them that which would take place in the latter days as well. The times and seasons are all in His Hand.
Israel (Yaakov) was preparing his descendants for the future, which their Lord was planning for them. The Lord knows the plans, the thoughts that He has concerning us. His Plans, thoughts are of success and a future, not of failure. He holds the keys of death and Hades. He has also given us the keys of Heaven.
Remember whatever we bind on earth shall be bound in Heaven. In addition, whatever we loose on earth shall be loosed in Heaven (Mat 16:19; Mat 18:18).

Blessing of the Tribes

Scripture

And Ya‛aqoḇ called his sons and said, “Gather together, so that I declare to you what is to befall you in the last days: “Gather together and hear, you sons of Ya‛aqoḇ, and listen to Yisra’ěl your father. “Re’uḇěn, you are my first-born, my power and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of exaltation and the excellency of power. “Boiling like water, you do not excel, because you went up to your father’s bed, then you defiled it – he went up to my couch. “Shim‛on and Lěwi are brothers, their weapons are implements of violence. “Let my being not enter their council, let my esteem not be united to their assembly; because they killed a man in their displeasure, and they lamed an ox in pleasure. “Cursed be their displeasure for it is fierce, and their wrath for it is cruel! I divide them in Ya‛aqoḇ and scatter them in Yisra’ěl. “You, Yehuḏah, your brothers praise you; your hand is on the neck of your enemies; your father’s children bow down before you. “Yehuḏah is a lion’s cub; from the prey you have gone up, my son! He bowed down, he crouched like a lion. And like a lion, who does rouse him? “The sceptre shall not turn aside from Yehuḏah, nor an Inscriber from between his feet, until Shiloh comes, and to Him is the obedience of peoples. “Binding his donkey to the vine, and his donkey’s colt to the choice vine, he washed his garments in wine, and his robes in the blood of grapes. “His eyes are darker than wine, and his teeth whiter than milk. “Zeḇulun dwells at the seashore, he is for a haven for ships, and his border is unto Tsiḏon. “Yissasḵar is a strong donkey lying down between two burdens, and he saw that a resting place was good, and that the land was pleasant, and he inclined his shoulder to bear a burden, and became a subject to slave labour. “Dan rightly rules his people as one of the tribes of Yisra’ěl. “Dan is a serpent by the way, an adder by the path that bites the horse’s heels so that its rider falls backward. “I have waited for your deliverance, O יהוה! “Gad, a raiding band raids him, but he raids its heel. “Bread from Ashěr is rich, and he gives delicacies of a sovereign. “Naphtali is a deer let loose, he gives words of elegance. “Yosěph is an offshoot of a fruit-bearing tree, an offshoot of a fruit-bearing tree by a fountain, his branches run over a wall. “And the archers have bitterly grieved him, shot at him and hated him. “But his bow remained in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the Mighty One of Ya‛aqoḇ – from there is the Shepherd, the Stone of Yisra’ěl – from the Ěl of your father who helps you, and by the Almighty who blesses you with blessings of the heavens from above, blessings of the deep that lies beneath, blessings of the breasts and of the womb. “The blessings of your father have excelled the blessings of my ancestors, up to the limit of the everlasting hills. They are on the head of Yosěph, and on the crown of the head of him who was separated from his brothers. “Binyamin is a wolf that tears, in the morn-ing he eats prey, and at night he divides the spoil.”(Gen 49:1-27 TS2009)2

Israel becoming a nation

Here we see Israel (Yaakov/Jacob) passing on the blessings to all his sons. Jacob been the last of the patriarchs passes on the blessing to the new generation. They are to be the forerunners of the establishment of Israel as a nation. Yet they and their descendants still had to increase both in numbers and in strength.
They were about to enter into God’s next phase for raising a strong na-tion. The Lord was about to fulfil the rest of His promise, as given to their father Abraham many years before. God is no man that He should lie nor the son of man that He would repent. Has He not said so and shall He not fulfil His Word (See Num 23:19-21 NKJ)
While in their land of bondage, Israel became a nation according to the Word of God given to Abraham, our father of faith. These promises fully given to Israel’s descendants included all future matters, times and sea-sons. The Lord would later lead them to completely, take possession of their Promised Land. Through Isaac and Joseph’s life and testimony, they would be able to remain at peace in their land of bondage until the sea-son was ready for the Lord to lead them out.
God is not a man that He should lie, or a son of man that He should repent. Has He said, and shall He not do it? And has He spoken, and shall He not make it good? Behold, I have received word to bless; yes, He has blessed; I cannot reverse it. (Num 23:19-20 LITV)4
Meanwhile, Joseph had risen to power becoming Pharaoh’s Prime Minis-ter. The Lord would watch over them and they would multiply, growing from strength to strength. All during the life of Joseph (Yoseph) after Israel’s (Yisrael’s) passing, they were under YHVH’s protection. The Lord watched over them and they grew! Multiplying from strength to strength.
The Lord also gave them favour with Egypt until after Joseph’s passing. Meanwhile their numbers increased daily. They grew from strength to strength! The nation of Israel became established!
And Joseph said unto his brethren: ‘I die; but God will surely remember you, and bring you up out of this land unto the land which He swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.’ And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying: ‘God will surely remember you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence.’ So Joseph died, being a hundred and ten years old. And they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt. (Gen 50:24-26 JPS)

The Passing of Joseph (Yoseph)

Scripture

And these are the names of the children of Yisra’ěl who came to Mitsrayim with Ya‛aqoḇ, each one with his household: Re’uḇěn, Shim‛on, Lěwi, and Yehuḏah; Yissasḵar, Zeḇulun, and Binyamin; Dan and Naphtali, Gaḏ and Ashěr. And all those who were descendants of Ya‛aqoḇ were seventy beings, as Yosěph was already in Mitsrayim. And Yosěph died, and all his brothers, and all that generation. And the children of Yisra’ěl were fruitful and increased very much, multiplied and became very strong, and the land was filled with them. Then a new sovereign arose over Mitsrayim, who did not know Yosěph, and he said to his people, “See, the people of the children of Yisra’ěl are more and stronger than we, come, let us act wisely towards them, lest they increase, and it shall be when fighting befalls us, that they shall join our enemies and fight against us, and shall go up out of the land.” the more they increased and grew, and they were in dread of the children of Yisra’ěl. (Exo 1:1-12 TS2009)

Joseph (Yoseph) Who_ _ _?

This new Pharaoh had neither known nor even heard about Joseph. He had forgotten the famine from which the Lord spared both Mitsrayim, Yisrael and the rest of the known world. He saw how the children of Yisrael increased in numbers, strength and stature . Be-ing fearful, he tabled a law to enslave Israel (Yisrael) , and to abort the birth of their entire male babes after or during their birth .
Therefore, they set slave-masters over them to afflict them with their burdens, and they built for Pharaoh Supply cities, Pithom and Ra‛amses. However, the more they afflicted them; In due course Joseph breathed his last. He asked his brethren, when the Lord their God would lead them out; they take his bones with them. Therefore, they embalmed his body, after he passed on. I due course all of Yoseph’s brothers and their generation passed on. Yisrael still prospered until Mitsrayim (Egypt) came under rule of a different royal house.
Unless they were ready to take possession of their rightful inheritance. They would still need to traverse the Wilderness for fourty years. Although they could have entered their, promise in a short space of time. The Lord had to deal with their flesh.
Despite their opposition, which Israel experienced, the Lord came through for them. When the times, the season being ready Israel cried out for their deliverance! On hearing their cry, the Lord remembered His Promised Covenant, which He made.

Moses (Mosheh)

Scripture

And a man went from the house of Levi and took a daughter of Levi. And the woman conceived and bore a son; and she saw him, that he was beautiful. And she concealed him three months. And she was not able to hide him any longer, and she took a basket for him made of papyrus, and she daubed it with bitumen and with pitch. And she put the child in it, and placed it in the reeds by the lip of the Nile. And his sister took her stand from a distance, to know what would be done to him. And the daughter of Pharaoh went down to bathe at the Nile. And her slave women were walking on the side of the Nile. And she saw the basket in the midst of the reeds, and sent her slave-girl and took it. And she opened it and saw the child, and, behold, a boy crying! And she had pity on him and said, This one is of the children of the Hebrews. And his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, Shall I go and call a woman for you, a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you? And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, Go. And the girl went and called the child’s mother. And Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, Take this child away and nurse him for me, and I will give your wages. And the woman took the child and nursed him. And the child grew, and she brought him to the daughter of Pharaoh. And he became a son to her, and she called his name Moses, and said, Because I drew him out of the water. (Exo 2:1-10 LITV)6
For Him to execute His plan. He raised Moses in Pharaoh’s courts. Whom He would eventually use to lead Israel out from captive bondage. He trained Moses in all matters concerning governing, leading and rul-ing a nation. The Lord would lead him into the wilderness fourty years as a herdsman. He was preparing him to lead a nation out from captiv-ity.
His mother suckled him when Moses was still a babe. This done under covering of the watchful eye of Pharaoh’s Daughter. In due course, she showed him to her father. She declared that she has adopted Moses as her own son and an heir after her, for she was barren.
Pharaoh’s daughter adopted him; raising him as her own son. She also trained him in Egypt’s Royal Lifestyle. According to Josephus and the Book of Jasher. During this time, the Lord raised Moses up as one of their finest generals. His father taught him to read and write in Pharaoh’s courts.


YHVH’s Answer


It happened that Mosheh saw an Egyptian (Mitsrian) strike a fellow He-brew. On seeing this, his ire rose within him. Through defending his fel-low Hebrew from the Mitsrian. He killed the Egyptian .
The following day he came across two fellow Hebrews fighting. Once more, he intervened. He was hoping to prove that he would be their future liberator. They remarked on his previous action asking _ _ _.
“By whom are you placed charge o’er us? Will you do us in as you did your fellow citizen?” This became knowledge to Pharaoh, who wanted Mosheh’s head . They were aware of his able, capable leadership potential
Immediately Moses (Mosheh) fled leaving Mitsrayim behind! For fear of his life! On his way, to Midian! Mosheh (Moses) came across a Midianite well. Where seven daughters of Midian’s priest made ready to water their flocks. During which time some uncouth shepherds arrived, rough-ly pushing them aside . Straightway he acted and watered their flocks, keeping the uncouth aside to wait their turn.
Through the courtesy, which he showed these sisters, they arrived at their home earlier than usual. Their father enquired about their early re-turn. On hearing of Moses benevolence, Reuel (his title being Yithro meaning Excellency) the priest of Midian desired to reward Moses ac-cordingly.
For the courtesy, he showed his daughters Reuel (the Midian priest), enquired about Moses. He desired to return this courtesy being the head of the house. He wanted to prepare a table in his honour.

Covenant with Death

(Ariel Gate dd 11 Oct 2017 to 21 Oct 2017)
(Notes taken by Joan E Lottering)
(Edited Ian R Lottering)
1 Covenant with Death

Ariel Gate
1.1 How often do we lie?
Any place we are either a witness of life or of death. When/where ever wanted to kill someone, we are connected with the spirit of death. Any tearing down of something/anything leads and relates to death. Any thought of suicide is linked with spirit of death. The Lord sets before us death and life; blessing and cursing; therefore choose life_ _ _ (see Deut 30:15-20). Our thoughts are not hidden from God. Our hearts are predominately evil.
Therefore any gossip or corrupt speech, is bound to lead us in the way of death and /or destruction if we are not careful about what we say. With David we need to ask the Lord to put a watch on our mouth. Because that which is in our heart and mind is sure to reveal itself through our speech. Often Scripture reminds us that which is in our hearts will overflow out of our mouth (see Mt 12:33-37). We/our lives and outcome are determined through the rudder of our soul, the tongue. Often we need to bridle our tongue!
Behold! I have set before you today life and good, and death and evil, in that I command you today to love Jehovah your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His judgments, so that you may live and multiply. And Jehovah your God shall bless you in the land where you go to possess it. But if you turn away your heart, so that you will not hear, but shall be drawn away and worship other gods and serve them, I declare to you today that you shall surely perish; you shall not prolong your days on the land where you pass over Jordan to go to possess it. I call Heaven and earth to record today against you. I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing. Therefore, choose life, so that both you and your seed may live, so that you may love Jehovah your God, and that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him. For He is your life and the length of your days, so that you may dwell in the land which Jehovah swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give it to them. (Deu 30:15-20 MKJV)
Remember in Christ Jesus (Yeshuah Ha Massiach) we are connected to life. Jew and Gentile in Him are become one new man. Christ paid for us through His death and shedding of His Blood, so that we are able to live (see Eph 2:11- 17). Christ Jesus is our giver of life which is a different Spirit to that of the spirit of death. The spirit of death has no concern, neither does he care less whether we live or die. Remember death and life are in the power of our tongue (see Pr 18:20-21; Pr 12:28). This is the reason we are reminded to guard our hearts, above all else because from out of our heart, flow the issues of life (see Pr 4:20-27).
This covenant with death eventually starts killing us from within, bringing forth destruction even to our generation and those after us. Although the covenant with death is able to destroy us, personally and generationally. Even though neither of our generations nor ourselves are killed due to our covenant with death_ _ _! We need to break its hold over us through our authority given us in Christ Jesus. Repentance on behalf of ourselves, our generational bloodlines and over our seed after us, is therefore; often necessary and much needed.

1.2 Original Sin brought Death
We involuntary are entered into this covenant of death because of Adam and Eve’s sin. For when they acted in disobedience to the Lord’s instruction concerning the knowledge of good and evil heeding the serpent instead of hearkening to the Lord, Death and Destruction entered into all of Creation. Thereby we also inherited death and destruction. Instead of Blessing we inherited the Curse. This curse cut us off from lifetime fellowship with God.
This was never God’s intent for His crown creation. He originally planned for us to enter into an abundant, pleasing life of fellowship with Him. His abundant manifold Love, far greatly surpasses our human understanding. He promises to give Life unto all whom call upon Him. His Name far surpasses all other names, in Heaven above and the Earth below. He desires to call us by His Name. Yet we are only be able to partake of it through our acceptance of His Death, Resurrection and Ascension.
God is no Mickey Mouse god, made through the hands and sleights of men. He is thrice Holy, Gracious, and Righteous without sin. The Sinner is unable to stand in His Presence. We through original disobedience, committed High Treason. We sinned against this Holy, Righteous and Just God; thereby entering into death. Through one man’s sin and disobedience Death entered in (Rom 5:7-21). The Lord forewarned His Crown Creation, the day he would eat of the Tree of The Knowledge of Good and evil, he surely would die (see Gen 2:15-18). This includes all the seed and descendants of mankind, from Adam right through; even until our present day.
Remember Jesus Christ (Yeshuah Ha Massiach), came to Earth to bring and give us Life which is Life More Abundantly. What or how does this abundant life seem to look to us? Are we able to imagine what abundant life means for us? We are entitled to that which God promised us. When I am Born Again, I need to be baptised. Thereby I partake of His Death, Resurrection and Ascension. This Baptism comes with repentance in our hearts.
1.3 After Baptism
We are able to partake of the abundant life. We die to self, living a crucified life. We are then circumcised in our heart. No longer circumcision of the flesh, but circumcision of our heart. This circumcision is a cutting of the heart. Our hearts be broken with that which breaks the Heart of God.
