What Does YHWH Require?

Shalom Beloved Hebrew Yisraelite Family,

There is none like unto Our YHWH. He alone is Our Savior. The Hebrew Yisraelite People have No Other Hope, No Other Redeemer, No Other Deliverer, No Other Restorer. I hope all is well with you and yours. Let it be known in every Hebrew Yisraelite Household that only in YHWH shall all the Seed of Yisrael glory and be justified. Blessed be the Name of YHWH for ever and ever; for wisdom and might are His. He changes the seasons. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to them that know understanding.

He reveals the deep and secret things. He knows what is in the darkness and the light dwells with Him. Know that YHWH has set apart them that are godly for Himself. He will hear us when we call unto Him. Stand in awe, and sin not; commune with your own heart upon your bed to YHWH, and be still before Him. Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in YHWH. It is He who gives Shalom to the Hebrew Yisraelite People, and makes us dwell in safety.

Some Do Not Know Requirements

"Some of My Chosen People are not aware of what I require. They do not understand that getting to know Me is Obtained Through Obedience. Time spent with Me is above all else. I desire My People to know me, believe me, and understand me."

These words echoed deep down in my spirit, in the middle of doing my daily morning chores. My chores came to an abrupt halt, because listening to the rest of this message took priority. Not later but NOW. I went over the words in my mind, and as always, I looked at me and my life wondering,am I fully aware of what YHWH requires? Am I fulfilling all that YOU require in my life? Am I being as obedient to You as I can? I cried out to YHWH, for Him to show me where I am. I prayed, reveal to me what it takes to make You happy, satisfy You, suit You, and please You more

The Tanakh Speaks Plainly

I have learned that everything I need to know is written in the Torah, in the Prophets and in the Writings.I don't have to make up any other rules to live by. YHWH's Will is made plain to The Hebrew Yisraelite People. There was, and never is any need for us to falter. or fail Him. Deuteronomy 10:12-13, list 5 requirements, that YHWH demands of "Now Yisrael." The passage reads: "And now Yisrael, what doeth YHWH Your G-D require of you, 1. but to fear(reverence, respecter, honor) YHWH Your G-D, 2. to walk in all His ways, 3.to love Him, 4 and to serve YHWH Your G-D with all your heart and with all your soul. 5. To keep the Commandments of YHWH, and His Statutes"

The requirements of YHWH are listed here. Our Prophet Moses declared, YAH's requirements are for "Our Good." These are not for the good of Our Creator. There is nothing listed here complicated or hard to do. No special degree or training is needed to fulfill these requirements.

YHWH's Sovereignty

We, the Hebrew Yisraelite People must come to understand and completely comprehend the sovereignty of YHWH. Reading on in Deuteronomy 10:14, Behold the heaven of heavens is YHWH Your G-D's, the earth also, with all that therein is. I pray we come to the understanding of what this truly means. We are not in control. We are nothing. We have no authority or power. YHWH is all that there is for the Hebrew Yisraelite People! Without Him we are nothing. Without YHWH, we will never arise above the Diaspora and our captives that rule over us. We will never be restored as a nation. There is nothing we can do outside of YHWH to gain the things we need!

We must come to realize verse 15, which says, Only YHWH had a delight in our fathers, to love them, and He chose their seed after them , EVEN YOU ABOVE ALL PEOPLE, as it is this day . Come with me on a spiritual journey if you will. Here in the Diaspora, nothing is designed for you to come to YHWH, to serve and love Him. Churchanity is thrown out all around us twenty four seven. The whole culture of the Diaspora is built around it. If YHWH does not deliver you from the philosophy of this abomination, it's system of worship, and the given sacrifice, you will never come to His Truth. You can never be delivered to meet His Requirements. It is not hard to get caught up in the customs and ways of our captives. It is taught in the education system, the media pushes it, our communities are in their communities which promote the xanity fundamental beliefs.To have been chosen by YHWH out of all this, is an honor to say the least! To have a desire to rise above this filth, and have a mind to seek The Most High is a privilege. Our mouths will be filled with Praise for YHWH once this sinks in. We will no longer allow anyone to dictate to us how much time, honor, and emotion, we can put into YHWH Our Creator.

Next Move Simple

We have to come to another level of "The Requirements Of YHWH" That is CIRCUMCISION. YHWH commands Circumcision of all Yisrael. Hebrew men are required to receive two Circumcisions. 1. The foreskin of the flesh. 2 The foreskin of the heart. Hebrew women are required to receive circumcision of the heart. All Hebrew Yisraelites are to be circumcised before YHWH. In Deuteronomy 10:16. " Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked." From experience, I know, when a married man is uncircumcised in the flesh, his wife suffers. Because of the foreskin, a man is unable to properly cleanse himself in that area. Germs and diseases can hide under the foreskin. Women married to these men can suffer many kinds of infections, including yeast infections. Some women suffer endometriosis, the leading cause of infertility, and other severe complications. .

When an Yisraelite is uncircumcised in heart, the whole Hebrew Yisraelite Community suffers. Because of the same inability to cleanse one's self. it takes YHWH to cleanse the heart. One must be humble enough to allow YHWH to do so. When your neck is stiff, you cannot bend, change, or conform to the ways of YHWH. When a leader is uncircumcised in heart, the people are led astray from the teachings of The Most High. Jeremiah 23:21 declares, But if they( prophets, leaders) had stood in my counsel, and had caused MY People to hear MY WORDS, then they(the prophets, leaders) should have turned them(My People) from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.

Circumcision-Both Physical And Spiritual

Briefly, I want to show you a few examples of circumcision that All Hebrew Yisraelites are required to receive, because it is essential to our "Spiritual Growth." The first step in Circumcision is: To Acknowledge. One must humble him/her self to realize and acknowledge the foreskin is a problem. It interferes with so many activities. It breeds germs and diseases that sometimes can not be detected with the natural eye. Isaiah had to acknowledge his area of uncircumcision. Check Chapter 6:5, he had uncircumcised lips. The Psalmist prayed against unclean lips in Psalm 141:3, Set a watch, O YHWH, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips. Psalm 24:4 says only those with clean hands and a pure heart shall ascend into the presence of YHWH.

Jeremiah speaks of the uncircumcised ear being unable to hear the Word Of YHWH in Jeremiah 6:10. When our ears are uncircumcised we can not hear YHWH!. Our eyes must be circumcised to see the spiritual. Psalm 119:18, ask YHWH: " open mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of Your Law" Our feet must be circumcised to walk in the way of YHWH, to fully apply the meaning of :"thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. Our minds must be circumcised to think on the things of YHWH. Isaiah declares in 26:3 YHWH will keep him/her in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Him, because he/she trust Him.

Encouraged

Whenever I leave any of my sessions with My Teacher, I have never failed to be encouraged. I am always overwhelmed with His love and faithfulness to me and The Hebrew Yisraelite People. He asked me: " Have you ever known Me to discourage anyone from keeping my Laws, Statutes, Judgments, And Commandments? Have I ever punished any Yisraelite for trying to please Me? Have I ever condemned any Hebrew Yisraelite for trying to do My Will?

I had to answer No to each of these questions presented to me. Truth is, no parent in his/her right mind punishes a child for doing right, or trying to please them There is no controversy when a Hebrew Yisraelite truly comes to grips with Isaiah 43:10. YHWH has never said no to His People's true praise, devotion, appreciation and love of Him. In Psalm 72:18 it is written, Blessed be YHWH, The G-D Of Yisrael, who only does wondrous things. My lifelong quest is to fulfill the requirements of The Most High. For this, I must seek Him daily for the wisdom, knowledge, and understanding of what I have to do to accomplish this quest. I encourage you to pray for, and with one another. Don't forget to love and forgive one another. Remember the sick, and those in jails and prisons. Visit them when you have opportunity to do so. Be appreciative of those that are good to you.

The secret of YHWH is with them that fear Him, and He will show them His Covenant.



Be Blessed. I Love U.
