Hebrew Nation Online | Living Torah – Mike Clayton

Our actions have consequences! The Hebrews are a walking model of this truth. Will our walk be any different? If not, we can expect the same results as they lived out. The eyes of Yah have a singular focus, Israel as a land and Israel as a people. Where ever we are today His focus […]

Moshe pitched his tent in the presence of Yah in order to plead his case. The answer was no. Why? Yah saw a bigger picture then and by the way, does now. He saw the sin of the people, the exile and our day of return. The Shema. Why are these words so important? What […]

Moshe could have been remembered for his final failure, but Yah had a better plan. Do personalities and personal issues keep us from entering into the fullness of His promises? Show no mercy to that which we are called to destroy! Are we expecting Yah to become comfortable with exile? Joinedtohashem.org

Catching up with a double Torah portion as well as a report from Revive. Balam and Balak give us clues to a war every generation will battle. The righteous one in their crowd is the donkey! We need those with the same spirit as Pinchas to rise up in our generation. No time to site […]

Miriam died! That’s it. Finished. Done. Shen died. Why is Scripture so blunt and even matter of fact with this statement? The answers may speak volumes to us today. Moshe has been leading these people for some 38 years now. It would seem he could get a break when his frustration caused error. Another lesson […]

The Korah rebellion challenged the Hebrews on many levels. Who would they stand with? Would they go forward or retreat? The crowd made the wrong choices over and over and the circumstances cost them dearly. In the end one man stood between the living and the dead. The opportunity is once again before us to […]

Twelve men were called to “tour” The Land. Was it their idea, Moshe’s idea or God’s idea? What was the purpose of their tour? Why did they go to Hebron and what is the significance of fruit from the Eshkol Valley? Why Joshua and Caleb? How is this all being played out today? Joinedtohashem.org

The Menorah shines light onto the Table Of Showbread in the Tabernacle. It still does today in our Tabernacles. Inverted Hebrew letters bracket two instructions to the people as they travel. These letters are like two arms reaching out embracing a moment or period of time. What if these two letters are able to “float” […]

Everyone has something they are responsible for. We should all be asking what that task or Tasks are. The Aaronic Blessing is maybe the most beautiful set of verses in all of Scripture. Who should speak these word to whom? What are the purpose of these words. How is Messiah revealed in the words? Joinedtohashem.org

Growing up in a Baptist church the day of Shavuot or Pentecost was not taught on. Later in my walk I find the importance of this wonderful festival. Then I find out that it did not begin in the Book of Acts, but rather at Mt. Sinai. My how life has changed! Joinedtohashem.org

What is the purpose of the wilderness experience? The very basis of the word has much to teach on this subject. The Tabernacle was to be the center of the camp. That message is still speaking to us today. Are we listening? Joinedtohashem.org

“When you enter The Land.” It is getting harder and harder to get past those words. How are we doing in our longing for home? Is the anger over the world system really getting us anywhere? Time to look to the horizon instead of staring in the rear view mirror. Joinedtohashem.org

Life is a test and there will be an exam at the end. What standard are we setting for our life? We may have been allowed to cheat on the entrance exam, but what about the performance exam? It’s all about making our Creator look good! Joinedtohashem.org

In order for there to be life there must first be death. Just where are we looking to for our life? Why was the goat sent out of the camp? Why was it a goat? Just what is the abomination of current practices of our day? Joinedtohashem.org

Mold, scabs and sores. What is the purpose of all these things? Is the satan’s work or God’s work. Knowing who is bringing something into our lives can mean the difference between healing and life or sickness and death. The love The Father has for us is brought forth in these Torah portions.

The message of Passover is the greatest love story ever told. This is not a teaching as much as sharing the events of our Passover with each of you. May it be a blessing that also challenges each of us. Joinedtohashem.org

Our lives are to be an offering to our God. Leviticus teaches us how our life offering is to be presented. The fire was given once, but the responsibility to keep it burning was the duty of the priests. Same message pertains to our daily lives. Ephesus was reminded of this. Let us heed the […]

“They had done it!” The amazing words spoken over a flawed people who had put their heart, soul and resources into a task which brought the Heavenly realm and the earthly realm together. May these words be spoken again of our generation. Regarding our lives, are we giving or leaning in? Joinedtohashem.org

History repeats itself! Are we asking for history to speak to us or settling for it speaking at us? Moshe is called to build, but he is not the one who will build this most important structure. Should be time to work 24/7 to accomplish the task. Not so fast. The work is to be […]

Does Yah have the right to tell us what to do? Of course, our answer would be yes, but what is the attitude regarding our answer? Aaron stood in splendor with garments that were made for him. Were they really made for him or was he simply filling them until their rightful owner would one […]

Regulations. Instructions. Maybe just plain common sense from above on how we should treat one another. After all, how we treat one another is tied to how we are treating our Creator. One word to sum it all up? Responsibility! Joinedtohashem.org

Egypt is now in the Hebrews rear view mirror and that is a problem that will hinder their walk. Driving while looking in the rear-view mirror can be dangerous to your forward progress. It sure was for the Hebrews. Time to learn a different way of life, thanksgiving instead of complaining! Joinedtohashem.org

The last plagues are coming upon Egypt and it is time to go home! Why did all this have to happen? Why will it have to happen again? Is part of the answer in the “mixed multitude”? Was this group the prophetic shadow of our lives today? Joinedtohashem.org

Let the plagues begin! What is the purpose of the plagues? Are they about Egypt, the Hebrews, something else? Is the answer yes? Is there one answer more right than the others? How relevant is that question today? Beware of false repentance of today’s systems! Joinedtohashem.org

The story of deliverance begins. Will we read it or allow it to read us? The lives of Moshe and the Hebrews are recorded for us so that we will not make the same mistakes they made. Embracing our calling in the deliverance story may not make the process easy, but will ensure less mistakes […]
