MICAH 5:2 Complete Jewish Bible

Micah 5:1... Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

But you, Beit-Lechem near Efrat,so small among the clans of Y’hudah,out of you will come forth to me the future ruler of Isra’el,whose origins are far in the past, back in ancient times.

Neither is there SALVATION in any other; for there is NO OTHER NAME+ under Heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Acts 4:12

That at the NAME of YESHUA+ every knee shall bow, of beings in Heaven, beings in earth, and beings under the earth; and that every tongue should proclaim that YESHUA+ MASHIYACH+ is LORD, to the Glory of ALAHA, His+ FATHER.
Philippians 2:10-11

The STING of Obedience





 
The WORD+ made Flesh ~ The LAW+ INCARNATE

ADVENT MEDITATIONS # 4
2016

 Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA+
The Law Incarnate+
 
… versus …

[ "Now I'm saved; I can sin all I want to." ]

GOD FORBID!

+  +  +


Y'SHU+ saith unto him,

I+ am The WAY,
The TRUTH+,
and the LIFE:

no man
cometh unto The FATHER,
but by ME+.

The Words of Our LORD,
John 14;6.

+  +  +
Mere outward appearance and outward observance of The Law WILL NOT MAKE a person Righteous.  No, rather, a person MUST BE IN AGREEMENT in his heart as well as in outward performance, with The TRUTH+.

Our LORD 
 Y'SHU+
is
"The TRUTH+" .

When we agree with The LORD in our heart, then something happens:  We change .  We change, replacing our wrong ways with The TRUTH+.


This change usually comes about through repentance. Indeed, the Greek word for repentance, "metanoeW" means a "change of mind." 


Something ELSE happens when we agree with The LORD in our heart: the forgiveness of others HE+ is requiring of us metamorphoses  from a heavy-handed Law which we do not wish to perform ... into a DELIGHT TO DO HIS+ WILL. From worm to butterfly, we change.

How is that accomplished ?  

His+ DELIGHT sits upon us when we agree in spirit and in TRUTH with HIM+. 

That joy and delight is SO GREAT that we can obey what HE+ shows us is RIGHT TO DO , this time, out of LOVE for HIM+.

We delight to obey HIM+ ... in response to His+ love for us !

HE+ Himself+ carries the STING of the Law of Obedience. His+ love over-whelms the Law of Obedience.
+  +  +
Let us pray:

Dear Heavenly FATHER,

Hallowed be Thy Name, O HOLY FATHER, and the Name of Thy HOLY SON+ , The LORD Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA+. 

I thank THEE+ for carrying the sting of obedience for me,  O M'SHIKHA+.  I delight to do Thy+ Will, especially in the DIVINE Law of forgiveness, for THOU hast forgiven me my many, many transgressions.

O, Blessed be Your+ HOLY Name, LORD  Y'SHU+, for sending me joy when I obey YOU+ !

Amen and amen.
+  +  +

In the Name of The FATHER,
Who created us;
And HIS HOLY SON+  Y'SHU+ ,
Who+ saves us;
And The Blessed
 RUACH ha KADOSH,
Who sanctifies us.
+  +  +
