Eloheinu melech ha-olam asher bachar banu m’kol

(Bless YHVH the
blessed One; Blessed is YHVH, the blessed One for all eternity. Blessed are
you, YHVH, our Elohim, King of the Universe, you have selected us from among
all the peoples,and have given us your Torah. Blessed are you, YHVH, giver of
the Torah. Ameyn.)
Many who are responding to the call of the restoration
to the Hebraic roots of our faith realize that a paradigm shift is required.
The magnitude of this shift in our way of life and thinking is far greater than
what most of us have realized. Many on this journey continue to seek the safety
of that which is known; very few seem willing to abandon everything that seems ‘’safe
and normal’’ to pursue a Messianic calling along a journey that is filled with uncertainty
risk and even danger. Those who embark on this “risky” journey are usually
willing to surrender everything that will hinder their journey back to the
‘’ancient paths’’ and back to the land of Israel. (Jer 6:16-19)
This Messianic kingdom
is like a treasure hidden in a field …. a pearl of great price – Mat 13:44-46 –
How much are we willing to surrender in order to obtain this treasure?
Yesh/Is 40:29-31 - He gives power to the faint, and to those who
have no might He increases strength.
Isa 40:30 Even youths shall faint and be weary, and
young men stumble and fall,
Isa 40:31 but those who wait on יהוה renew their strength, they raise up the wing like eagles, they
run and are not weary, they walk and do not faint.
Gen 12:1 And יהוה said to Aḇram, “Go yourself out of your
land, from your relatives and from your father’s house, to a land which I show
you. (see Gen 13:1 And
Aḇram went up from Mitsrayim into the South, he and his wife and all that he
had, and Lot with him.)
The only time we will ever truly discover our life’s
purpose and our destiny is when we agree to “lech lecha” This means a
willingness and courage to separate ourselves from everything that will
separate us from YHVH’s calling and purpose. This is the nature and heart of
the Hebrew. The word “Hebrew” comes from the Hebrew word “avar” which speaks of
one who has “crossed over”. Crossed over from Babylon or from man- made
religion to embrace the Sovereignty of YHVH and His Torah as taught to us by
Moshe rabbeinu and Yahshua the Messiah. (Gk – ekllessia – called out)
