Death lips demand the reverence of the Eternal’s commandments. The Terror of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Fearing Him must come first before we can learn to love Him. Like “Beauty and the Beast,” love comes out of fear. We must instill such in our children so they may live in blessing.

Greater still are acts of love. There is a unity of all things but only one God. The attributes of the Mystical YHVH are pitying the sinner, gracing the repentant, ruling, sympathizing to suffering, loving concern, long-suffering, abounding in mercy, verifying, remembering human merit, understanding, forgiving, atoning, and seeing guilt. We Love Him out of His Love for us. That Love is best expressed in doing His Torah. Dennis Prager wrote in his book the Rational Bible: Deuteronomy, “But love must be reflected in behavior. We are therefore to live according to His commandments.” (pg. 2; 2022   Regnery)

The condition of our lives should bring the love of the Lord to others. As much as we keep Torah, It keeps us. We must keep reminders to walk in faith. Rabbi Pesach Wolicki’s new book, Verses for Zion  “If we make conscious choices to govern our behavior by faith in God, the result is that we will begin to see the world through eyes that reflect that faith.”

Only by the power of the Lord can we accomplish anything. When we are full, we often forget the blessing of the divine. Then, especially we must reverence the Lord. God has a jealous desire for you. His judgment is real and He will destroy unrighteousness. Do what is right and He may create a holy possession making our countries great again.

 When someone wonders about the Lord's legitimacy in making such requests, our response is that He granted us freedom. In each generation, we have seen the “sea split” and many other miracles. The laws He has given us are for our own benefit. We find happiness in serving the Lord.There is no room for giving the Glory of God to anything else. To fallow the Lord, we must only yoke ourselves to the Children of the Lord, so we may dive each other to good works. John Calvin preached in his sermon “On Thursday, the first of August 1555 The 51st Sermon which is the first upon the seventh Chapter,”

“You shall resemble your heavenly father (says our Lord Jesus Christ) who causes his day sun to rise both upon good and bad: and therefore do good to such as are not worthy of it. Seeing that GOD has not a better reason to persuade us to show mercy, than by showing us what he himself does: it seems not in any wise convenient, that he should provoke us to cruelty.”

The Lord did not choose the Jews for their greatness, but so His greatness could be seen in them. God keeps His covenent with this who love Him. Atheism steals God's glory, which is why their societies fail. Fertility is promised to those keep His Torah.
