Jehovah Mekoddishkem : the LORD who Sanctifies

Adonai said to Moshe, “Tell the people of Isra’el, ‘You are to observe my Shabbats; for this is a sign between me and you through all your generations; so that you will know that I am Adonai, who sets you apart for me.” ‭‭Sh'mot (Exo)‬ ‭31‬:‭12‬-‭13‬ ‭CJB‬‬ The Lord commanded Moses to tell the people of Israel, “Keep the Sabbath, my day of rest, because it is a sign between you and me for all time to come, to show that I, the Lord, have made you my own people.” ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭31‬:‭12‬-‭13‬ (‭GNT‬‬)

Seeking

Instead, be concerned above everything else with the Kingdom of God and with what he requires of you, and he will provide you with all these other things. So do not worry about tomorrow; it will have enough worries of its own. There is no need to add to the troubles each day brings. Matthew 6:33-34 (GNT) Do not be distracted by the noise about you. Leave your insecurities with me. Sit with me and allow me to heal you. Pour out those issues upon my altar of forgiveness. Seek me and you will find me. I am there. Don’t rush through, but allow my Spirit to minister.

What Do You See?

The rims of the wheels were covered with eyes. Whenever the creatures moved, the wheels moved with them, and if the creatures rose up from the earth, so did the wheels. The creatures went wherever they wished, and the wheels did exactly what the creatures did, because the creatures controlled them. So every time the creatures moved or stopped or rose in the air, the wheels did exactly the same. Ezekiel 1:18-21 (GNT) Silence your busy self and look again. Correct your vision and search for me. I have not left you. I am there, straight ahead of you. Don’t become distracted, but look for me and you will find me. I have what is needed by you to become whole in me.

Is this you?

With Me

Let there be no doubt in your mind. I have placed you where you are for my purpose. I have placed those around you so they might grow, absorbing things I have fed you. Stand and walk forward. You are covered with my cloak and sword. Use them wisely and conquer the enemy. You are my warrior. I have prepared you for upcoming purposes. Walk in step with me.

Allow Me

Don’t fearful in the darkness of night, nor allow the nightmares disturb your waking moments. Come and sit with me. Allow my Spirit to comfort your sore areas. Turn to me so I can bring what you need. Don’t allow anger to guide your emotions, but sit with me. Allow me to release what is needed. Give me your fear and allow my wings to close over you, shielding you from the enemy. I am ever-present. I have no condemnation, but release my Spirit of direction and peace. Allow me into the corners of your life. Allow me to be what is needed.

YHWH Tsaba’ - (The Eternal of Hosts/Armies)

There was a man from Ramatayim-Tzofim, in the hills of Efrayim, whose name was Elkanah the son of Yerocham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tochu, the son of Tzuf, from Efrat. He had two wives, one named Hannah and the other P’ninah. P’ninah had children, but Hannah had no children. This man went up from his city every year to worship and sacrifice to Adonai-Tzva’ot in Shiloh. The two sons of Eli, Hofni and Pinchas, were cohanim of Adonai there. ‭‭Sh'mu'el Alef (1 Sa)‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭3‬ ‭(CJB)‬‬ There was a man named Elkanah, from the tribe of Ephraim, who lived in the town of Ramah in the hill country of Ephraim. He was the son of Jeroham and grandson of Elihu, and belonged to the family of Tohu, a part of the clan of Zuph. Elkanah had two wives, Hannah and Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah did not. Every year Elkanah went from Ramah to worship and offer sacrifices to the Lord Almighty at Shiloh, where Hophni and Phinehas, the two sons of Eli, were priests of the Lord. ‭‭1 Sa

Being Changed

What seeds are you sowing? Are they returning what you would like to receive? Do not allow anger or distraction to come upon and direct you. but be filled with my Spirit. Allow me to be the way for you. I am your Example. Look to me when you are tired and frustrated. Sow good seeds. Sow seeds of love and understanding. Sew faithfulness in your daily walk. Be continually filled with my Spirit. Receive me and be changed.

Your Covering

In the beginning the Word already existed; the Word was with God, and the Word was God. From the very beginning the Word was with God. Through him God made all things; not one thing in all creation was made without him. The Word was the source of life, and this life brought light to people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has never put it out. ‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭(GNT‬‬) Take time and wait for me. I will reveal myself. I will illuminate what is important. There is nothing coming which will surprise me. I have created all things. In me is the light and life you need. Watch for me and I will be found. Do not fear the words and ways of my enemy. Be found in my covering of light and life.

the light

Don’t allow fear to guide you in your decisions. Trust in me and what I say to you. Darkness has no place in your life. Those who love me will be safe in me. I am yet the light of this world. Feed yourself upon my written word. Learn my heart and direction thru its pages. Learn to recognize my ways. I will speak to you in the night times. I will show you directions and warnings. I will speak to your heart to encourage you to reach out. Yes, I am the light of the world.

El Olam (the Everlasting God)

In the following manner they made a covenant at Be’er-Sheva (well of the sevenfold oath): then Avi-melekh (my father is king) rose up, and Pikhol (mouth of all) the chief captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the P’lishtim (wanderers). And [Avraham [exalted father/Fly They Will]] planted a grove in Be’er-Sheva (well of the sevenfold oath), and called there on the name of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), the everlasting God-Elōhīm [The Living Word - The Many Powered].” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭21‬:‭32‬-‭33‬ (‭NMV) After they had made this agreement at Beersheba, Abimelech and Phicol went back to Philistia. Then Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba and worshiped the Lord, the Everlasting God. ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭21‬:‭32‬-‭33‬ (‭GNT‬‬)

What You Need

Don’t begin in a rush. Block out your distractions and sit with me. Allow my healing ways to penetrate the business and self-absorption. If you seek me, I am there. I will reveal myself to you. I will refill and refresh you. I am what you need.

Gifts in the Sun

This morning, as I went out to fill the bird feeders I could see nine turtle doves. They sat together warming in the morning sun. I felt His voice granting me a reminder. Like the nine gifts of the Spirit they can unwittingly draw self-attention. As the gifts of the Spirit are important, as a sole focus, they can be part of divisive conversation among believers. We, as a family of believers, can often focus upon those gifts. We can miss their true value and may fail to move further. But we need to look internally, and ask “Where’s the fruit?” They are available to all. They all reflect the true light of the Son.

Walk With Me

Invite me into your life, into those tight corners where trouble seems to hide. Allow my light to shine, to bring illumination. Allow my healing presence to work its way. I will not force my way into any situation but await your invitation. Walk with me. Learn the love I have for you to share with others.

Your Calling

So then, have your minds ready for action. Keep alert and set your hope completely on the blessing which will be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed. Be obedient to God, and do not allow your lives to be shaped by those desires you had when you were still ignorant. Instead, be holy in all that you do, just as God who called you is holy. The scripture says, “Be holy because I am holy.” ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭1‬:‭13‬-‭16‬ ‭(GNT‬‬)

Your Pathway

I want you to realize who you are in me. Awaken the giftings I have placed within you. Speak my words of truth and hope. Reach out and bring healing to those I place in your pathway. Walk forward. I have given you what they need.

The Way

Allow the warmth of my Son to warn and direct you. He has demonstrated my ways and heart. Be filled with my Spirit. Follow where He leads. Flow upon his wings. Grow in the ways I have planted within you. Seek me and my ways and what you need will be supplied. Do not be guided by fear, but let my love continue to show you the way you should go.

Allow Wisdom

Now let Pharaoh look for a man discerning and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt. Let Pharaoh take action to appoint overseers in charge of the land, and let him exact a fifth of the produce of the land of Egypt in the seven years of abundance. Genesis 41:33-34 (NASB) Allow wisdom to guide you. Follow her pathway and go where she leads you. Do not allow impatience to drag you into the shadows, but learn to walk secure with me.

Jehovah-M'Kaddesh (The Lord Who Sanctifies)

Consecrate yourselves, therefore, and be holy, because I am the Lord your God. And you shall keep My statutes and practice them. I am the Lord who sanctifies you. ‭‭Leviticus‬ ‭20‬:‭7‬-‭8‬ (‭BSB)‬‬ Consecrate yourselves and be holy, because I am the Lord your God. Keep my decrees and follow them. I am the Lord, who makes you holy. ‭‭Leviticus‬ ‭20‬:‭7‬-‭8‬ ‭(NIV‬‬)

I Am There

he said, “Get out, everybody! The little girl is not dead —she is only sleeping!” Then they all started making fun of him. But as soon as the people had been put out, Jesus went into the girl's room and took hold of her hand, and she got up. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭9‬:‭24‬-‭25‬ ‭(GNT‬‬) I am there in your situations. Call to me aloud, expecting my answer. Seek me. Uncover the secrets I have planted for you to find. Know my heart. Within it are the answers and direction you need. I am there. My blessing is awaiting to be shared.

closer

God said to me, “Mortal man, prophesy to the wind. Tell the wind that the Sovereign Lord commands it to come from every direction, to breathe into these dead bodies, and to bring them back to life.” Ezekiel 37:9 (GNT) Do not allow the enemy to bring discouragement. In his words are and ways are death and lies. I am what is needed. I am life. My ways of truth releases vision and encouragement. Look forward. I am already there, leading your way. I am behind you granting safety and protection. Walk with me each day. Search for me and I will be discovered. I will open new wells of deep water. I will wash and refresh you. Learn to know me as I know you. Let each step bring you closer.

Your Journey

Learn to recognize and respond to my voice. There are many who would speak to you. They would draw you into darkness. I still speak light and life. My words go forth from the beginning, continuing to create as they travel. Follow the directions I have given you and watch as things open up before you. You will know the way. The results will bring life. Don’t allow fear to guide you. My spoken words do not change. Continue in what I have given you. I will be there in your journey.

Is this you?

If any of you needs wisdom to know what you should do, you should ask God, and he will give it to you. God is generous to everyone and doesn’t find fault with them. When you ask for something, don’t have any doubts. A person who has doubts is like a wave that is blown by the wind and tossed by the sea. A person who has doubts shouldn’t expect to receive anything from the Lord. A person who has doubts is thinking about two different things at the same time and can’t make up his mind about anything. ‭‭James‬ ‭1‬:‭5‬-‭8‬ ‭(GW‬‬)

Planted Within

Walk secure with me. Allow me to guide you, To show you the way created for you. Wherever you are, I am already there. I will take you to the places so others might see my light. Don’t allow circumstances misguide you. See me and the way I have planted within you.

Let it Rain

I am the one who forms light and creates darkness; the one who brings about peace and creates calamity. I am the Lord, who accomplishes all these things. O sky, rain down from above! Let the clouds send down showers of deliverance! Let the earth absorb it so salvation may grow, and deliverance may sprout up along with it. I, the Lord, create it. Isaiah 45:7-8 (NET) It is my desire to rain upon you, to wash away misconceptions, to cleanse you from the arrows of the enemy. I will send my rain to wash you and release refreshing. I will erase the tears, replacing them with clear vision and a refreshed heart.

Rest in Me

As a face is reflected in water, so the heart reflects the real person. Proverbs 27:19 NLT Learn to rest in me, and in the safety only I can provide. Lay aside that which weighs you down. Toss aside the lies which seek to rope and lead into the area of doubt. Rest secure in my sphere. I will cover you in what is needed. I will supply a renewed covering. I will guide and refresh you. Rest in me and you will have all that is needed.

the eternal, our righteousness

In his days Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] shall be saved, and Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] shall dwell safely: and this [is] His Name whereby he shall be called, THE Lord-Yehōvah Tzudkenu [Messiah Pre-Incarnate OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS].” Jeremiah 23:6 (NMV) And this will be his name: ‘The Lord Is Our Righteousness.’ In that day Judah will be saved, and Israel will live in safety.” Jeremiah 23:6 (NLT)

Watch...

Watch for me. Listen for my voice as it leads you. Listen for me even more when you feel you do not hear me. I am not silent, but often wait for my people to seek after me. What are you doing when you sense I am silent? Are you doing what I’ve shown you or have you moved in your own direction and timing? Watch for me and you will find me there, beside you. Listen carefully for my breath of direction to blow over you, leading you to the way you should go.

varieties

Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are varieties of ministries, and the same Lord. There are varieties of effects, but the same God who works all things in all persons. But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. For to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, and to another the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, and to another the effecting of miracles, and to another prophecy, and to another the distinguishing of spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, and to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually just as He wills. 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 (NASB)

Your Journey

Be stilled in me. Know that I am ever-with you. Don’t allow the enemy of distract you. Yes, I am ever-with you. Walk under the covering I provide for you. There the enemy has no sway. Come. Allow me to feed you and heal your wounds. In me there is no condemnation. With me you are safe. I will show you the way you should walk. If you allow, I will lead you on your journey.

I Am There

Then he said, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but now I will go and wake him up.” John 11:11 (NLT) Don’t rely upon what you don’t see or how You may feel. Rely upon what my Word says. In it is truth and direction. In it is life. Wherever you may be I AM there with you. Learn to recognize me, responding in love.

Names, part-10

It is all right, the Lord replied. Do not be afraid. You will not die. And Gideon built an altar to the Lord there and named it Yahweh-Shalom (which means the Lord is peace). The altar remains in Ophrah in the land of the clan of Abiezer to this day. Judges 6:23-24 (NLT)

Within You

So Jesus came to Jerusalem and went into the Temple. After looking around carefully at everything, he left because it was late in the afternoon. Then he returned to Bethany with the twelve disciples. Mark 11:11 (NLT) I am there, right in front of you. Open your spiritual eyes and I will present myself. I will remind you of my heart and the majesty of my creation. Listen for the sounds I have implanted into you. Do not be afraid of them but allow them to grow. Walk in the authority I have made available. Let it grow in you. Become whom I already see within you.

Reach Out

And even when he reached the land God promised him, he lived there by faith—for he was like a foreigner, living in tents. And so did Isaac and Jacob, who inherited the same promise. Abraham was confidently looking forward to a city with eternal foundations, a city designed and built by God. It was by faith that even Sarah was able to have a child, though she was barren and was too old. She believed that God would keep his promise. ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭11‬:‭9‬-‭11‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Put aside your impatience and take time to sit with me. Allow me to fill you with what you need. Allow me to wash you and open your eyes to see what I see. It’s time to stop looking back at once was, but see now what I see within you. I have given you things to be shared with others. Reach out and release the flow I have set within you.

I Am Calling

Do not be discouraged, bur STOP and focus yourself upon me. Allow my ways and perspective to lead you in the right pathway. Don’t step in the trap of the enemy. Walk where I will lead you. I will show you what you need to know. I will feed you my word of trust and direction. Listen for me, for I am calling your name.

Names, part-9

And said, If you will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) you God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], and will do that which is right in his sight, and will give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon you, which I have brought upon the Mitzri: for I [am] Yehovah Rof’ekha [Messiah Pre-Incarnate that heals you].” ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭15‬:‭26‬ (‭NMV)‬‬ He said, “If you will listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in his sight, obeying his commands and keeping all his decrees, then I will not make you suffer any of the diseases I sent on the Egyptians; for I am the Lord who heals you.”” ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭15‬:‭26‬ (‭NLT‬‬)

Your Steps

It was by faith that Abraham obeyed when God called him to leave home and go to another land that God would give him as his inheritance. He went without knowing where he was going. Hebrews 11:8 (NLT) Are you on the move? Step forward. Don’t be led by your emotions or reactions, but by what I have spoken to you. I have plans for you to grow in my ways. Wherever your feet are going, I have been there before, so step forward. Cast aside your “but if” of fear and walk in knowing I AM with you. You can not disappoint me. I know your every thought. I know the destiny yet to blossom forth from deep within you. I AM with you each step of your day.

What I See

Don’t be stuck in your tomorrow. This is the day for you to step forth. This is the day of your promotion. Go now. Walk where I am leading you. Speak my truth in love. Open the doors for others to reach where I have plans for them. I am with you now. I will be forever with you. Watch expectingly for me to act in your everyday life. Today is the day for you to discover what I already see within you.

For You

Speak over the dreams I have given you. Do not push them, but allow them to come to pass. Don’t allow fear to suffocate what I have shown to you. You are my agent of change. Allow my ways to start with you. I will guide you in the way you should go. I will continue to open the ways for you to follow. Your descendants will be as numerous as the dust of the earth! They will spread out in all directions—to the west and the east, to the north and the south. And all the families of the earth will be blessed through you and your descendants. What’s more, I am with you, and I will protect you wherever you go. One day I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have finished giving you everything I have promised you.” Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely the Lord is in this place, and I wasn’t even aware of it!” Genesis 28:14-16 (NLT)

Are You Listening?

So we must listen very carefully to the truth we have heard, or we may drift away from it. For the message God delivered through angels has always stood firm, and every violation of the law and every act of disobedience was punished. So what makes us think we can escape if we ignore this great salvation that was first announced by the Lord Jesus himself and then delivered to us by those who heard him speak? And God confirmed the message by giving signs and wonders and various miracles and gifts of the Holy Spirit whenever he chose. ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭(NLT‬)‬

Seek Me

Do not be discouraged, but watch for me. Do not listen to the barbs and scorn of the enemy, but be filled with my word. Seek after my words. They are truth. Wash and be refreshed in me. There are truths and trails yet for you to discover in me. I am yet what you are searching for.

What I show You

Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭6‬:‭13‬ (‭NLT‬‬) I have created all thing, the large and the tiny. They all reflect my image. They hold secrets yet undiscovered. Let impatience be in the past. It does not reflect my heart. Seek me, search out what I have yet to show you. Seek me. Each day find yourself absorbed in me. My Word is life. Learn when to keep quiet and when to speak what I show you.

Take a Look

On the fifth day of the sixth month in the sixth year, I was sitting in my home. Judah’s leaders were sitting in front of me. The power of the Almighty Lord came over me. As I looked, I saw something that looked like a human. From the waist down its body looked like fire, and from the waist up its body looked like glowing metal. It stretched out what looked like a hand and grabbed me by the hair on my head. In these visions from God, the Spirit carried me between heaven and earth. He took me to Jerusalem, to the entrance to the north gate of the inner courtyard of the temple. That was where an idol that stirs up ⌞God’s⌟ anger was located. There I saw the glory of Israel’s God as I did in the vision that I saw in the valley. Ezekiel 8:1-4 (GW)

It's Time

It’s time for you to grow deeper in me and my ways. Put your roots into the soil of my Word. Grow onto the vision I have placed within you. Allow the light of my Word to penetrate and feed you. Don’t settle but grasp for more of me. Learn to recognize my ways to stimulate you. Learn to bask in my refreshing. In me is light. I am the Word which you need.

Names, part-8

Moshe said to God, “Look, when I appear before the people of Isra’el and say to them, ‘The God of your ancestors has sent me to you’; and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what am I to tell them?” God said to Moshe, “Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh [I am/will be what I am/will be],” and added, “Here is what to say to the people of Isra’el: ‘Ehyeh [I Am or I Will Be] has sent me to you.’”” ‭‭Sh'mot (Exo)‬ ‭3‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭(CJB)‬‬ But Moses protested, “If I go to the people of Israel and tell them, ‘The God of your ancestors has sent me to you,’ they will ask me, ‘What is his name?’ Then what should I tell them?” God replied to Moses, “I Am Who I Am. Say this to the people of Israel: I Am has sent me to you.”” ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭3‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭(NLT)‬‬

Prospering

So the king of Israel would send word to the place indicated by the man of God. Time and again Elisha warned the king, so that he would be on the alert there. ‭‭2 Kings‬ ‭6‬:‭10‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Watch for me. I am placing signs in your pathway, as directions for you to see and follow. Do not become discouraged. I am with you. Do not allow the way of the enemy to affect you. Stand firm in me. I yet have plans for you. Watch for me and you will find me. Seek my ways and my works and you will prosper.

Weigh Yourself

So we must listen very carefully to the truth we have heard, or we may drift away from it. For the message God delivered through angels has always stood firm, and every violation of the law and every act of disobedience was punished. So what makes us think we can escape if we ignore this great salvation that was first announced by the Lord Jesus himself and then delivered to us by those who heard him speak? And God confirmed the message by giving signs and wonders and various miracles and gifts of the Holy Spirit whenever he chose. Hebrews 2:1-4 (NLT)

Names, part-7

So she named Adonai who had spoken with her El Ro’i [God of seeing], because she said, “Have I really seen the One who sees me [and stayed alive]?” This is why the well has been called Be’er-Lachai-Ro’i [well of the one who lives and sees]; it lies between Kadesh and Bered.” ‭‭B'resheet (Gen)‬ ‭16‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭(CJB‬‬) Thereafter, Hagar used another name to refer to the Lord, who had spoken to her. She said, “You are the God who sees me.” She also said, “Have I truly seen the One who sees me?” So that well was named Beer-lahai-roi (which means “well of the Living One who sees me”). It can still be found between Kadesh and Bered.” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭16‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭(NLT‬‬)

Trust in Me

Trust me. I will show you the road for you to take. It will open my way for you. Don’t compare yourself to the others. Walk in the leading I’ve built into you. There you will find the purpose and fulfillment. Watch for me and I will again show myself to you. I will reveal my heart and direction. Trust in me, I am the Creator-God.
