Listen! (Deuteronomy 6-7)

 God gave us the Torah out of love. By obeying these commands, we will be blessed. Likewise, your grandchildren will learn to fear Him. We must listen also to the Lords still small voice.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.

One of the last things Moses preached to Israel before dieing was this in Deut 6:4-5, “Hear, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD is one!  You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.”NASU (The Shema)  Rabbi Sacks said “The Shema is not just about believing in God; it's about living in a way that reflects your beliefs. It's about making God the center of our lives, not just the idea that we hold.”

When God pours out His blessings, giving you all you could ever want or need, never forget to honor Him. Remember, it is the Lord who provides everything. Put your trust in Him alone, for He will not share His glory with another and judges with perfect justice.

When our children ask about the meaning of the Torah, we are to tell them how the Lord delivered us from darkness and brought us into His marvelous light. He commanded us to follow His statutes so that we might walk in His blessings. The fear of the Lord is not only wisdom—it is our very survival.

When the Lord grants us peace, we must remain set apart, not entangled with the world’s values or systems. We cannot compromise with a world that seeks to lead our children astray, turning their hearts away from God. The Lord calls us to holiness because He loves us deeply and desires to fulfill His promises through us.

Our stories are about the one true God—a God of love and justice. He blesses those who love Him but stands against the ways of hatred and rebellion. So, let us obey the Lord, for His law is the path to abundant life. By following His ways, we open ourselves to His blessings and protection, including healing and preservation from affliction. God’s love for us is steadfast, and His faithfulness endures forever.

What are you enslave to? (Exodus 1-3

 Those who forget and Lack gratitude for our nations early leaders create tyranny. The world fears when the children of the Lord prosper. They have been persecuted not for their rebellion but out of unwarranted hatred. However, some have chosen to stand up for them. Israeli bible scholar Nechama Leibowitz stated, “The Torah how the individual can resist evil. He needs not shirk his moral responsibility under the cover of 'superior orders'...neither moral courage or sheer wickedness ethnically... determined qualities.”  

By faith, we act choosing to obey the word in-spite of the laws of the land  seeing the Lord as our ultimate authority. Ultimately, our live must be given up to the Lord. When we are given our first act, The Lord will give us greater things for our faithfulness.  Those who walk in the Way of the Lord are given a heritage. Isaiah wrote in Isa 56:6-7 this :

“Also the foreigners who join themselves to the LORD, To minister to Him, and to love the name of the LORD, To be His servants, every one who keeps from profaning the sabbath And holds fast My covenant;  Even those I will bring to My holy mountain And make them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be acceptable on My altar;  For My house will be called a house of prayer for all the peoples." NASU

The wrath of man does not do the will of God but drives on from from humanity. No man is grateful for hatred. A gentle heart brings new opportunity. In God's timing, He will call His person to do His work. When we approach the Holy One, we must do it with respect for Him.

 The Lord has heard the distress of His people. He has given Israel to the Jews. We are only powerful in the Lord.
