Today, our real challenge is that we cannot abide or continue in His Word if we have not learned His Word. We learn of Yeshua through discipleship . Yeshua told His Disciples to follow Him. They heard what He taught and saw the miracles, signs, and wonders. Then Yeshua sent them out and they performed miracles, signs, and wonders as a result of their discipleship. We must abide in the truth that we learn through discipleship. To abide is to continue in that truth and to live by that truth. As on...

YeHoVaH's display of Power and Authority over nature, the elements, and the resources of Egypt may appear to the denominational disciples, or the un-discipled, to be singularly targeted and focused on Pharaoh and the Egyptians. However, a closer look into what is written reveals that YeHoVaH is setting the stage, and laying the groundwork, for the Children of Israel to know who this Great and Mighty One is that is about to rip them out of the clutches of Pharaoh, enrich them for their years of t...

YeHoVaH desires for every last one of us to be successful in our faith walk. When you begin to walk with the Master, it puts space between you and people who are not willing to walk with the Master the way that He desires. John is trying to communicate to us that the condemnation is because light has come into the world and men love darkness rather than light because their deeds are evil. Those who refuse to receive Yeshua as the Son of Elohim will die in their sins. Yeshua, the Word of Elohim, ...

YeHoVaH had the power and authority to destroy Pharaoh the first day He sent Moses and Aaron to instruct Pharaoh to let go His firstborn son, the Children of Israel. Pharaoh's continual refusal and hardening of his own heart, in addition to YeHoVaH hardening Pharaoh's heart, set the stage for the demonstration of YeHoVaH's patience, grace, and mercy toward Pharaoh and the people of Egypt. Join us and witness for yourself as YeHoVaH's mercy and grace toward Pharaoh, and the people of Egypt, is pu...

While Yeshua was teaching in the Temple Court, the Scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery. They said unto Him, “Master this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. Now Moses, in the Law, commanded us that such should be stoned. But what sayest thou?” They were tempting Him that they might have reason to accuse Him. But Yeshua said, “He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.” Because they only bring the woman and not the man, it is clear ...

Pharaoh's hardened heart caused him to continually refuse to listen to Moses and Aaron's request to let the Children of Israel leave Egypt to serve YeHoVaH. As a consequence of Pharaoh not listening to YeHoVaH's servants, Moses and Aaron, YeHoVaH turns His focus to Egypt's economy. Pharaoh's repeated rejection of YeHoVaH's single command of letting His people go, and Pharaoh turning a blind eye to the miracles, signs, and wonders, brought the people of Egypt's economy to a standstill. Tune in as...

We continue with John's testimony of what he saw and experienced as a follower of Messiah. John introduced us to the Word, tells us that the Word was Elohim, the Word was in the beginning, and then John tells us that the Word manifested itself in the human form of the Messiah Yeshua. John indicates, by capitalizing the word “Prophet”, that Yeshua is the Prophet that Elohim spoke about to Moses. In this last portion of Chapter 7, the Pharisees and Chief Priests sent officers to arrest Yeshua. How...

Miracle after miracle performed by Moses and Aaron did little to cause or convince Pharaoh to release the Children of Israel so they could go and serve YeHoVaH. Pharaoh's heart was hardened to the point that he would not listen to the council of those around him. Pharaoh would not relent even when they described the miracles being performed by Moses and Aaron as, "This is the finger of God". Despite being powerless to compete, Pharaoh continued to defy the command of the Most High to, "Let Israe...

Amongst themselves, the people acknowledged the plot of the religious leaders as Yeshua was speaking at the Feast. Some were perplexed because they knew the rulers’ intents, but Yeshua was speaking openly. Some wondered if the rulers had finally accepted Yeshua to be the Messiah. Deuteronomy 18:18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put My words in His mouth; and He shall speak unto them all that I shall command Him.

The miracle of turning the waters of Egypt to blood, performed by Moses to demonstrate the power of YeHoVaH to Pharaoh, his magician's, sorcerers, and wise men, does not persuade Pharaoh to let the Children of Israel go. Instead, Pharaoh hardened his heart. The back and forth with Pharaoh and Moses, in actuality, was a back and forth between Pharaoh and YeHoVaH. In some instances, YeHoVaH hardened Pharaoh's heart, but in other instances Pharaoh was unyielding and hardened his own heart. Join us ...

This teaching addresses several issues related to Yeshua and the keeping of the Law. Did Yeshua keep the Law of YeHoVaH or was He a lawbreaker? Were the Pharisees and Sadducees keeping the Law of YeHoVaH or some other law? Was there a difference between the law of the Pharisees and the law of the Sadducees? Did the people of Yeshua’s day observe the Law given to Moses or the Law of the Pharisees and Sadducees? What do people mean when they say that those who keep the Law have fallen from grace. ...

Moses, as God to Pharaoh, and Aaron, as Moses' prophet, were instructed by YeHoVaH to perform miracles before Pharaoh. The miracles demonstrated the power of the Most High in the sight of Pharaoh, his magician's, sorcerers, and wise men. Instead of yielding to the power of the Most High, performed through Moses and Aaron, Pharaoh's heart became unyielding. This resulted in hardship and extra labor for the Egyptians in order for them to survive. Join us as Moses and Aaron are instructed to perfor...

In this portion of John, we see that Yeshua knew the world hated Him and that His brothers were a part of that world that hated Him. At the Feast celebrations, no man spoke openly of Him for fear of the religious leaders. The religious leaders had made open threats about killing Yeshua and they threatened to kick anyone who acknowledged Yeshua out of the synagogue. Over the course of Yeshua’s lifetime, He would have kept all of the Commanded Feasts in their appointed times. During the course of ...

Egypt was a land where its society and people worshiped many gods and was ruled by a king who surrounded himself with magicians, sorcerers, and wise men. It was to this land that YeHoVaH designated Moses as a god and his brother Aaron a prophet. If in fact Pharaoh, king of Egypt, was considered to be a god, as stated by many, YeHoVaH elevated Moses to be his equal. Likewise, Aaron, Moses' spokesperson, was a counterpart to the magicians, sorcerers, and wise men who surrounded Pharaoh.

We pointed out last week that Messiah, the Word, became flesh. When He says eat of my flesh and drink of my blood, He's speaking to them words that are Spirit, but they are hearing His words in the natural. When you eat of His Word, consume His Word, you're eating His body and drinking His blood. He dwells in you because you are consuming His Word! It's not something you do once a month, or once a quarter, or once a year, it's something you do every single day, all day. But if you're just simply...

This Prophet, the Almighty was going to send, the Children of Israel must Shema!

Afflicted, heavily burdened, and realizing they are in trouble, the Officers of the Children of Israel direct their grievances toward Moses and Aaron. Then Moses and Aaron return to YeHoVaH to ask why He had brought trouble on the people. Previously, YeHoVaH had revealed to Moses what He was going to do. However, YeHoVaH had not revealed to Moses how He was going to do it, the process, or the means by which He would accomplish what He had spoken. Join us in this continuing and intriguing saga of...

Sometimes you have to get away from those who have an agenda for you that is contrary to your agenda. It's dangerous if you don't have an agenda from YeHoVaH because you will find yourself being manipulated to fulfill somebody else's agenda. Yeshua sent His Disciples away by ship.

The elders of Israel believed, bowed their heads, and worshipped upon hearing the news brought to them by Moses and Aaron. Truly, YeHoVaH had looked upon their afflictions! Moses and Aaron must now deliver YeHoVaH's message to Pharaoh; a message that will not be well received. This message would create hostility between the Children of Israel, of that generation, and Moses. However, the hostility toward Moses and YeHoVaH would continue long after Israel's deliverance from Egypt and for the rest ...

It is evident in Scripture that 5,000 men were fed, but there was also an unnumbered amount of women and children present for this miracle as recorded by John. From the dialog recorded between Yeshua and Andrew, we see that Yeshua knew he was about to perform a miracle amongst His Disciples in the presence of the multitude . Matthew, Mark, and Luke record Yeshua looking to heaven and giving thanks to His and our Father . The miraculous thing about miracles is that they are unexplainable. Of all ...

Yeshua makes it clear that the work He is doing is not independent of His and our Father YeHoVaH. There are people today who see the work of Yeshua/Jesus as independent of the work of Father.

The Name of God is a very controversial subject for many in the Messianic, Messianic Jewish, and Hebrew Roots communities. While some insist we don't know the Name or His Name should not be used, others insist on not only saying the Name of God, but also demand His Name should be pronounced a certain way. The pronunciation and use of God's Name is so contentious and divisive, it has caused much hate and disharmony among those who are supposed to be recognized for their "love for one another". - ...

There are also the laws of the Sadducees, that are contained in their writings. When Yeshua said, “Beware of the leaven …”, He was speaking of the leaven of the teachings .

As the adopted son of the Egyptian Pharaoh's daughter, Moses was nursed and raised by his Hebrew mother. After Moses was weaned, he was delivered to Pharaoh's daughter's house. Moses grew up knowing he was Hebrew, even though he had an Egyptian name, and was raised in an Egyptian household by an Egyptian woman.

Even though John reveals to us that the people were looking for Messiah, for Elijah, and for the Prophet; Yeshua testified that a prophet had no honor in his own country. Mark Twain aptly said, “Familiarity breeds contempt.” This means when you have a lot of knowledge about a person, you tend to lose respect for that person especially when they move beyond your assigned role for them. This could manifest when others expected something of you that you didn't want to live up to; they made rules th...
