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

EARNEST of Our Inheritance --- Pre-PASCHA Meditations ... Ephesians 1:14



PRE-PASCHA MEDITATIONS

A note to Syriac or Aramaic Followers of Y'SHU+: 

The time to stand united has come; the WHOLE House of Israel… yes, the WHOLE House… is coming under persecution world-wide, both the natural and the grafted-in branches. 

It is time to lay aside differences and seek The LORD in repentance, on our face.  It is clear that the 10 kings of Revelation 17 are actively pushing their agenda to eliminate all those who hinder their program.

Followers of Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA are the only ones on the face of this earth who can, through their obedience and their prayers, hinder their efforts.  The satan knows this, thus the persecution of the Whole House of Israel.

Also note:  I have used the form, Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA through-out, as found in the Peshitta, instead of the Jewish form of Y’SHUA+ haMOSHIYACH.
   
Meditations  for  the Pre-Pascha Season
(The Passover Season, 2016)

Now is My+ soul troubled;
and what shall I+ say ...
FATHER,
save ME+
from this hour ?
but for this cause
came I+ unto this hour.

FATHER,
Glorify Thy Name.

Then came there a Voice from Heaven, saying,

I have both glorified IT,
and will glorify IT again.

John12:27-28

Meditation Verse 
Ephesians 1: 14

 ...Ye were sealed with that RUACH ha KADOSH of Promise,

WHO is the earnest
of our inheritance
until the redemption
of the purchased possession,
unto the praise of HIS glory.

Note: WHO is referring to the RUACH ha KADOSH , keeping in context with the previous verse. REDEMPTION is "loosening away" in the literal Greek.  Followers of Y’SHU+ are the "purchased possession."  HIS may be understood to be the GODHEAD.

Now, from the Syriac / Aramaic translations of Dr’s. Etheridge, Murdock, and Lamsa, courtesy of Dukhrana.com :


Ephesians 1:14 - ܗܳܝ ܕ݁ܺܐܝܬ݂ܶܝܗ ܪܰܗܒ݂ܽܘܢܳܐ ܕ݁ܝܳܪܬ݁ܽܘܬ݂ܰܢ ܠܦ݂ܽܘܪܩܳܢܳܐ ܕ݁ܰܐܝܠܶܝܢ ܕ݁ܚܳܐܶܝܢ ܘܰܠܫܽܘܒ݂ܚܳܐ ܕ݁ܺܐܝܩܳܪܶܗ ܀ (analyze)

Ephesians 1:14 - who is the earnest of our inheritance, until the redemption of those who are saved, and unto the praise of his majesty.
Ephesians 1:14 - who is the earnest of our inheritance, until the redemption of them that are alive, and for the praise of his glory.
Ephesians 1:14 - Which is the pledge of our inheritance, for the salvation of those who are saved, and for the glory of his honour 
+  +  +

Meditation

This special, DIVINE, earnest --- the deposit, the down-payment ( as it were ) --- has been given to us to secure or hold our promised inheritance in the Kingdom of GOD. 

This DIVINE DEPOSIT or Pledge to us  is the RUACH ha KADOSH Who indwells within us at our conversion to the M'SHIKHA.

Then Peter said unto them,
Repent, and be baptized
every one of you
in the name of Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA
for the remission of sins,
and ye shall receive
the Gift of the RUACH ha KADOSH.
Acts 2:38

This Divine Guarantee-or  has marked us as legal RECEPTORS for an inheritance in the Heavenlies with our name on it.

No-one can steal that inheritance from us. No-one can cheat us out of our inheritance nor do we have to share our portion with another. It is ours; we have not been over-looked, neglected, nor dis-owned.

However, there is a Divine characteristic of this DIVINE Earnest or down-payment which makes it different from the usual legal transaction of goods or money given as a down payment:  This Divine Earnest  happens to be LIVING!

HE is ALIVE !

  But when the COMFORTER is come, WHOM I+ will send unto you

from The FATHER,
even the SPIRIT of Truth,
WHO proceedeth from The FATHER,

HE shall testify of ME+:

John 15:26

Now, this Living "Breath" from GOD has another Divine characteristic: HE does not speak of Himself, but of Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA

Howbeit when HE,
the SPIRIT of Truth, is come,
HE will guide you
into all Truth:
for HE shall not speak of Himself;
but whatsoever HE shall hear,
that shall HE speak:
and HE will shew you things to come.
John 16:13

Now, it is true that no-one can steal our inheritance from us because of this Divine Deposit of The RUACH ha KADOSH living within us.

However... we can lose it.

What?
Know ye not
that your body
is the Temple
of the RUACH ha KADOSH
WHO is in you,
WHOM ye have of GOD,
and ye are not your own?

For ye are bought with a price:
therefore glorify GOD
in your body and in your spirit,
which ARE GOD'S.
I Corinthians 6:19-20

+  +  +
Let us pray:

O LORD, we have been so foolish. We have grieved the RUACH ha KADOSH. We have played the harlot with the world.

We have desired things  ... and persons... who have drawn us away from THEE+.

We are finely tuned to our distractions but barely able to discern Thy+ Voice when we need it. 

We are led about by our bodies, our flesh, our earth-centered minds instead of by our Divine Earnest WHO is to lead us into ALL Truth.

We have NOT given to THEE+ Thine own: our body and our spirit. Rather, we have squandered THY goods on earth-centered living. 

We have not been good stewards of what is rightly Thine.

Standing in sore need of cleansing, we ask that THOU wouldst be pleased to restore us unto THEE and take not Thy blessed RUACH ha KADOSH from us.

We commit anew our bodies and our spirits unto THEE+ , to be led by Thy+ RUACH ha KADOSH and used for Thy+ purposes. 

We accept the call to Quietness and Separation from this world and its values and its ways and its activities... distractions, all.

Grant us this cleansing, this renewal, that we may bring praise to Thy+ Glorious Name... and not lose our inheritance.

These things we ask of THEE+, in Thy+ HOLY Name, O  M'SHIKHA+. Amen.

+  +  +
Worthy is the LAMB+.

Worthy is The LAMB+
that was slain.

Worthy is the LAMB+,
slain
from the foundation
of the earth.
Revelation 13:8


+  +  +
PRAISE and THANKSGIVING
be to The FATHER,
and to His Beloved SON+
Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA,
and to
the Blessed RUACH haKADOSH.

ONE GOD:
FATHER,
SON+,
and RUACH ha KADOSH,
both now and forever,
world without end.
Amen.
