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.

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: 17
[ 1:16 Cease not to give thanks for you,
making mention of you in my prayers;]
That the
GOD
of our LORD Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA,
The FATHER of Glory,
may give unto you
the SPIRIT of Wisdom
and revelation
in the knowledge
of HIM+:
A
Peek at the Greek:
·
The word that is
"hina", which means in order that.
·
The word used here for wisdom
is sophia, which is generally used in the NT as "the ability to USE
knowledge for correct behavior, insight."
( Friberg's Analytical Lexicon of the Greek New Testament).
·
The Greek word here for knowledge
is actually a compound word, with the prefix EPI-- attached to the beginning of
gn0sksei , "gnOskO" =
to know.
Strong's Concordance tells us that EPI has a basic meaning of superimposition.
Friberg's AnLex tells us that "epign0sis" is "what one comes to
know and appropriate through faith in the M'SHIKHA+.
Vine's
Expository Dictionary includes discern or discernment in the
definition of EPIGN0SIS.
In other words, this EPI-GN0SEI is a supernatural
discernment which comes through faith in the M'SHIKHA+ via the RUACH ha KADOSH... not merely a factual head knowledge.

Meditation
That the
GOD of our LORD Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA, The FATHER
of Glory, may give unto you the SPIRIT of Wisdom
and revelation in the knowledge of
HIM+:
The phrase which starts this
verse, "In order that..." ,
tells us that it is connected in thought to the verse above it. The Apostle Paul never
ceases to pray for the new believers in the M'SHIKHA+ ...
in order that Our FATHER Who art in Heaven will do something
out-standing for them.
What is that out-standing
"something" that the world CANNOT --- is not able --- to receive but
even New-born Believers can have ?
...The FATHER
of Glory, may give unto you the SPIRIT
of Wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of
HIM+:
Our FATHER'S gift to
us is the RUACH ha KADOSH'S ability to use
Wisdom to correct our behavior. HE grants
us insight as to our motives and the "why" we do things un-like the
M'SHIKHA+, through this priceless SPIRIT of Wisdom.
Furthermore, we are given
something else the worldlings do not have: revelation... an UNcovering. This "uncovering" includes revealing
to the Light+ the darkness that hides the evil one's doings, his illusions, in
our lives.
For the follower of Y'SHU+, the
satan's workings are no longer hidden from view: we can pin-point our impure motives, our guile, our
wounds, and our sins which the satan often hides from us, trying to keep us in
bondage. This also comes only via
the RUACH ha KADOSH, our priceless gift from The
FATHER.
...The FATHER
of Glory, may give unto you the SPIRIT
of Wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of
HIM+:
The Apostle also asks The
FATHER to grant believers the EPI-GNOSIS, the supernatural
discernment of Y'SHU+ our LORD.
This also, like the Apostle Paul's other prayer requests, comes
through the RUACH ha KADOSH, the SPIRIT of Wisdom.
The world and its worldlings
CANNOT --- are not even able ---
to receive these gifts of discernment and Wisdom because they only go to
Followers of Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA.
They only go to the ones who
have heard the call of the M'SHIKHA+ in
their hearts and have RESPONDED to that call ... in a way that pleases HIM+.
They only are granted to the
ones who are placed into that pre-defined flock, for they have identified with the M'SHIKHA+ in
His+ death.
They are the Followers who
search out their inner motives, who listen to the RUACH ha
KADOSH when conviction of sin and impurity of motives are revealed.
They put to death their flesh
now and bring their bodies into subjection unto The Word
of GOD, like the Apostle Paul did.
They have died with the
M'SHIKHA+, so that they might live with HIM+. THEY DO SO DAILY, through the power and help
of the RUACH ha KADOSH.
Here is what identifies "The
Elect" :
They cannot stand ANYTHING
which comes
between them and Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA.
That is why
"The Elect" die to Self daily
and live for the M'SHIKHA+.
These are the ones
who meet the QUALIFICATIONS
to be in that group
called "The Elect"
which Our FATHER
draws near to HIM.
That is the group which Our FATHER established, setting up
the QUALIFICATIONS before the foundation of the world, before mankind lived on
planet earth.
How can we be certain about this, that QUALIFICATIONS were established
to belong to the group called "The Elect " ?
We know this is true because The LAMB+
was slain from the foundation of the World ! ---
before GOD even created man from earth. Revelation
13:8.
Are you
MEETING THE QUALIFICATIONS
to be in
"The ELECT" ?
Not only did the Apostle Paul
speak of these QUALIFICATIONS
to be in "The ELECT," but also the Apostle Peter taught
the same Truth.
Hear this:
2 Peter 1: 10
Wherefore the rather,
brethren,
give diligence
to make your calling
and election sure:
for if ye do these things,
ye shall never fall:
2
Peter 1:2-3
According as
His Divine power hath given unto us all things
that pertain unto Life and Godliness,
through
the knowledge
[ EPI-GNOSIS ]
of HIM+
that hath called us to glory and virtue:
Whereby are given unto
us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers
of the Divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world
through lust.
+ + +
Let
us pray:
O Ruler of the Universe, LORD
GOD, YHWH ADONAINU, great deeds are they which YOU have done, surpassing human
understanding.
Your ways are ways of
Righteousness and Truth, O King+ of all the ages.
Who can fail to do YOU
homage, LORD, and sing the praises of Your Name ? For YOU only are the HOLY
ONE.
All nations will draw near
and fall down before YOU, because Your Righteous and HOLY works have been
revealed ! 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.
