WHAT Does Our LORD Hear ?.... Pre-PASCHA Meditations.... Ephesians 1:15

Our LORD Hears...

PRE-PASCHA MEDITATIONS

A note to Syriac or Aramaic Christians: 

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 Pre- Pascha

(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.

Meditation Verse 

Ephesians 1:15

Wherefore I also,

after I heard of your faith

in the LORD Y’SHU+ and

love unto all the saints…

The literal Greek:  For this reason , I also hearing the faith concerning you all in The LORD Y’SHU+ and the love towards all the saints,

+  +  +

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

- ܡܶܛܽܠ ܗܳܢܳܐ ܐܳܦ݂ ܐܶܢܳܐ ܗܳܐ ܡܶܢ ܕ݁ܫܶܡܥܶܬ݂ ܗܰܝܡܳܢܽܘܬ݂ܟ݂ܽܘܢ ܕ݁ܰܒ݂ܡܳܪܰܢ ܝܶܫܽܘܥ ܡܫܺܝܚܳܐ ܘܚܽܘܒ݁ܟ݂ܽܘܢ ܕ݁ܰܠܘܳܬ݂ ܩܰܕ݁ܺܝܫܶܐ

Ephesians 1:15 - ON account of this, behold, I also, since I heard of your faith in our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, and your love to all the saints,

Ephesians 1:15 - Therefore, lo I also, since I heard of your faith in our Lord Y’SHU+ the Messiah, and of your love towards all the saints,

Ephesians 1:15 - Wherefore I also, since I heard of your faith in our LORD Y’SHU+ The M’SHIKHA+, and your love toward all the saints,

Meditation

Reports came to the Apostle Paul regarding the Followers of Y’SHU+ in Ephesus.

Here, then, were the reports:

The Ephesian Followers of Y’SHU+ were KNOWN for their faith in THE M’SHIKHA+.

They were also KNOWN for the AgapA love they issued toward all the saints... their fellow brethren in THE M’SHIKHA+.

Can this be said of us?

What kind of report about us would the Apostle Paul hear if he were alive on earth today ?

Are we supportive of the Brethren in THE M’SHIKHA+ whom we know ? Are we supportive individually as well as collectively ?

Do we love the Brethren enough to warn them when they go astray from the Narrow Way that leads unto Life Eternal?

Do we kindly and gently, with support, issue correction when Brethren walk or talk against Scripture ?

Or rather, do we play at love and try to keep everybody "happy" with that  "warm and accepted" feeling …  at the expense of THE M’SHIKHA+ ?

Do we indulge in "friendship evangelism" ... i.e., "just come to our church and we will love you into the Kingdom of GOD"... while not requiring true repentance and conversion and amendment of life ?

Are we known for our faith in THE M’SHIKHA+ when the presses of life occur ?

Is our faith of SUCH depth that we can stand firm in the face of depression and oppression    ?

Is our faith dependant on wealth? On our health ? On others ? On our family being intact ?

Hard times, troublous times, turbulent times --- beyond those normal things that come upon all persons --- are at the door.  They have already descended in horror upon many in the rest of the world.

It is a living nightmare what the Followers of Y’SHU+ are enduring in North Korea, Syria and the Middle East, Pakistan, Nigeria, the Sudan, and other African nations…  and now it is beginning in Europe.

Persecution is coming closer to home.

It is reported that one well-known Western nation's current leader covers the Cross of Y’SHU+ if he must enter into a building or room where it is hanging.

It is a fact that that same leader refused to attend the funeral of a Supreme Court judge because the funeral service was in a Church and the LORD Y’SHU+ THE M’SHIKHA+ was proclaimed.

There is an abundance of politicians vying for leadership who openly, proudly, and stridently support ungodly life-styles and Agendas, including the killing of babies in the womb and "harvesting" their "valuable" organs. ( An unthinkable, grotesque form of humanity trying to play "god." )

As a matter of fact, killing humanity is the hidden but primary Agenda of most of these programs... from GMO seeds to enforced “health care” from the cradle to the grave.  

Any one who refuses to personally participate in any unrighteous programs that go against GOD'S WORD will make himself a target. 

One report from a reputable ministry stated that the Agenda is to remove all The Christian witness from the public eye.   This has already taken place in some countries in Europe; it is only a matter of time before it occurs closer to home.

Take HEED, Church:

We CANNOT correct

SPIRITUAL problems

with political solutions,

so guns and voting

and civil "movements"

are NOT the realm

for Followers of Y’SHU+. 

There are

NO political solutions

to SPIRITUAL PROBLEMS.

Y’SHU+ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. HE+ alone is able to correct the spiritual sickness engulfing this world.

Instead of standing for guns, voting rights, civil movements, and weeping over the flag, we must stand for Y’SHU+.

We must weep

over this Sin-Sick World. 

And the Sin-Sick Worldlings,

both in control and out-of-control, 

are not going to like that.

Will our faith stand in the face of persecution ?

Will our faith stand when the enemies of Y’SHU+ THE M’SHIKHA+ make us choose to conform to their ungodly programs and accept un-holy life-styles ... or face persecution ?

Will we love the Brethren… or turn them in if they preach a righteousness based on Scripture instead of the ever-changing societal norms ?

What will

our LORD and SAVIOR

Y’SHU+ THE M’SHIKHA+

be hearing about us ?

+  +  +

Let us pray:

O, LORD Y’SHU+, we need help. YOU+ know what is coming before YOU+ arrive to re-claim the earth.

We are weak and shallow; we have not been tested as our Brethren have across the sea.

We think if we don't have the right food at the right time or the right house we are bearing a cross.

We know the Refiner's Fire is determined upon all the earth.  Help us to grow solid in YOU+.

LORD Y’SHU+, I say I love YOU+; help me to pick up the Cross of discipleship before the Cross of Persecution comes.

Help me NOT to shy away from spiritual discipline; I will not be ABLE to shy away from persecution.

Show me, O LORD Y’SHU+, how to stand against my own flesh and submit myself unto Your+ Word.

I accept that the Time of Preparation is NOW to train myself to deny my flesh... so that I do not deny YOU+ when my hour of testing comes.

YOU+ went to the Cross -- alone --- so that I would not have to go through ANYTHING without YOU+.

Help me, LORD Y’SHU+.

For Thy+ Name's sake, I pray. 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 HA KADOSH.

ONE GOD:

FATHER,

SON+,

and RUACH HA KADOSH,

both now and forever,

world without end.

Amen.
