Those who look to our God will be strengthened. Isaiah 40:31 NKJV says, "But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint." There are blessings for keeping God's commandments. Deuteronomy 28:1-2 NKJV says, "Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the vo...

God’s ways can prosper us because they are good ways. God has given us light, understanding, through His commandments. Psalms 118:24-27 NKJV says, “This is the day the LORD has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. Save now, I pray, O LORD; O LORD, I pray, send now prosperity. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD! We have blessed you from the house of the LORD. God is the LORD, and H...

Do you want to bring God’s goodness into the world, or the pain sin brings into the world. We need to decide that we will do what is “right and good” and keep God’s commandments. God’s ways are, “Love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law,” see Galatians 5:22-23 NKJV. God has good intentions for mankind. Give yourself t...

Take care of the matters of life and our spiritual lives. Stay on track spiritually; God should be an important part of our lives. Hang on to spiritual truth and live for God. Noah’s Ark has been discovered, but more important than that, is for each of us to discover the mighty God of the universe and our Messiah Yeshua. 

Also, we should note, many believers in the Messiah are blind too and don't understand the scriptures in their proper biblical Jewish or Israelite context. That is the original context of the Bible and that is where we should be getting our understanding. Bible teachers teach their own doctrine or just good advice instead of the truth. Theology has taken over Christianity and they explain awa...

God is a God who provides the Holy Spirit to help us (see John 15:26) so we can have fellowship with God. 1 John 1:3-4 CJB says, "What we have seen and heard, we are proclaiming to you; so that you too may have fellowship with us. Our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Yeshua the Messiah. We are writing these things so that our joy may be complete." Isn't that amazing;...

As believers, we need to keep seeking God and never give up. Stay connected to God and His word. In order to grow spiritually, we may need to change some things in our lives. Money is often a driving force for us, but God and doing what is right should be especially important. We will have to give an account to God for how we live. Stay faithful to our good and just God.

This time of year is important as are all of God’s feasts. I am not talking about the Gentile made-up feasts, but the real biblical feasts. In my life, I replaced the Gentile feasts with God's feasts. Those who keep God’s commandment to keep the Sabbath, which is observed every week, should always remember to make a big deal about the special feasts of God like Passover, Shavuot, Yom Teruah (...

We should remember that God gave us His commandments to help us. If we keep His commandments God says we will be His treasured people. I want to be one of God's treasured people. The Bible teaches us that we are to be a humble people. We can incur curses by not keeping God's commandments; often these are in the form of consequences. We will receive blessings if we keep God's command...

This portion contains a lot of important miscellaneous laws. Some of the laws are used in our own culture. God is the creator and knows what is best for us. Work at directing your life towards God. It will give you peace and even make your life longer; perhaps by even changing and protecting your DNA. Be consistent in developing a godly life. Work at areas in your life that need attention. Be humb...

The Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38-39) is given to believers in Messiah in this Messianic era to help us live better and lead us and encourage us in life's situations. You can do no better than to follow God’s commandments and how the Holy Spirit is leading you (The Holy Spirit will not contradict God’s commandments – why would God’s good commandments change; God says in Malachi 3:6 NKJV, “For I am t...

Do not get caught up in worldly disputes about how to live right because the worldly redefine truth and makes it into a lie. They call what is good evil and what is evil good. They will have to pay for their evil it said in Ezekiel so don’t follow their false system of lies. We live among perverse people, but we are not to live like they live. Hold fast to the words of life. Don’t pretend to be Go...

We have seen a number of verses from the Old Testament portion quoted in the New Testament portion in our studies. This portion also has verses from the Old Testament portion of the Haftarah that are quoted in the New Testament portion. The New Testament believers reference for life is the Old Testament portion – that’s why they quoted the Old Testament portion. If they Old Testament portion was o...

Over and over in this portion, we see Moshe reminding them to keep God’s commandments. The writer of Hebrews says the same thing (in Hebrews 3:5 to 4:2). As Moshe says there are dire consequences for not following God, the writer of Hebrews says the same. Hebrews 3:12 NKJV says, "Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God." Co...

Work things through in life. Sometimes this comes easily and at other times we need to take time to process what to do. Sometimes we need to look at our lives, our motivations, our plans, our desires, and get them in line with God’s truths in the Bible.  Provers 3:5-8NKJV Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall d...

God was real and present with Israel while they were in the desert before they entered Canaan. He is a real and present powerful God who sustains all of His creation and works on behalf of His people every day. God reaches out to mankind to help us find Him and rescue us so we can demonstrate the goodness of God. We are to be a people of light and understanding through an all-knowing and good God....

God expects us to keep His commandments. Those who teach and keep God's commandments will be rewarded by God. It says in Hebrews 6:10-12 NKJV: "For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister. And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope...

  Some of the Old Testament portion scriptures are pictures of spiritual things. The sacrifices of the Israelites were to be pure which is a picture for us to be pure. Yeshua the Messiah was pure. Mo-shay strikes the rock instead of speaking to it. He was not able to enter the promised land because of what he did. We should remember that God expects us to do exactly what He says. If we want truth,...

God gave us His commands to help us; God cares about us. God wants a people who do what is right and spiritual leaders who are dedicated to keep God’s commandments and to teach all of God’s truths including God’s Old Testament commandments, the work of the Holy Spirit, God’s judgment, and the lake of fire. Our spiritual life is important, and we don’t want to get off track. God is more important t...

What can we learn from the sin of the spies? *The lack of faith in this era has resulted in several things. Some are afraid of the Holy Spirit even though Yeshua commands us not to be afraid of the Holy Spirit in Luke 11:13 NKJV, "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him;" Luke...

In this portion, Moshe says that he wished all God’s people were prophets. It has always been God’s intention that we fellowship with God personally. That close connection was lost when Adam and Eve sinned in the garden, but that connection has been restored to some extent now through the gift of the Holy Spirit; believers in Yeshua are commanded to receive the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38-39). It is no...

God is there and at work powerfully. A friend of mine prayed for someone who was blind, and stuff started oozing out of the eyes of the man he was praying for, and he was healed of his blindness. I prayed for a woman in the jungle in the middle of nowhere near the Amazon River who had just heard about God. She had a bad back and her pain was completely gone. She cried for half an hour after her he...

Our lives are not perfect but keep moving forward and do not give up . Yeshua said in Revelation 3:5 NKJV, "He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels." Yochanan (John) says we have victory and can overcome sin through Yeshua. 1 John 4:4-6 NKJV says, "...

Thread count is the number of threads woven together per inch. So, 100 x 100 threads is a 200-thread count. A 200-thread count is considered high quality thread. Think about this in spiritual terms. The more of God that is inter-woven into our lives, the better quality of spiritual life we will have. I want a good spiritual life, who wouldn't want that. God, Jeremiah 10:12 NKJV says about God...

Our society teaches us that we can only rely on man. They have made up an alternate reality without God. We also have inherited lies through theology. Jeremiah 17:5 NKJV, "Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart departs from the LORD;" God is God and mankind is not. What makes people think that their man-made theology is okay with God? They obviously...
