Thought for Today: Wednesday November 26
I have learned that serving Adonai requires prayer, and often means tears. Power for life for ministry, does not come from our own ability; it comes from YHVH. We need a fresh daily anointing from the Holy Spirit, and that comes from the time we spend with YHVH in His Word and in Prayer. “Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from YHVH” {1 John 4:7}

FROM THIS WEEK’S TORAH PORTION – VAYYEITZEI:
“Vaya’an Ya’aqov vayomer L’lavan, ki yareitiy” ~ “And Ya’aqov answered and said to Lavan, ‘Because I was afraid...’”
Throughout his youth, Ya’aqov’s biggest problem was that he constantly feared. And he feared all the wrong things. He feared financial loss and exclusion, he feared his brother and his father-in-law, he feared both the present and the future. Because of his fear, he acted with guile and deceit, seeking to manipulate others in order to get his way and what he wanted. Does this sound like anyone you know?
The one person Ya’aqov did not properly fear, until later in life, was the one and only Person who deserved that fear: YHWH Shadday. He even attempted to manipulate YHWH to obtain his own desires, – and YHWH graciously but temporarily allowed this for His own purposes. Does this also sound like anyone you know?
Fear of anything or anyone besides YHWH is misplaced and unproductive. Yehoshua our Messiah said, “But I shall show you whom you should fear: fear the One who, after killing, possesses the authority to cast into Gehinnom.” Of other persons and things, he only said, “And which of you by worrying can add one amah to his lifespan? If then you are unable to affect the smallest thing, why do you worry about the rest?” He also said, “Seek ye first the kingdom of YHWH and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.” We who have the blessings and promises of YHWH, whether through birth or by adoption and ingathering, have no right to fear anyone or anything else. He has promised to be our strength and our shield, as well as our provider. As occurred with Ya’aqov, fearing anything or anyone besides YHWH will only prevent or delay us from becoming who we are truly meant to be and truly realizing our hopes, blessings and dreams.

How we think of worship today is much different than how it was thought of centuries ago. Today some think worship is simply going to a church or synagogue to listen to a message. Others consider it worship to hear music with a message, while someone else may consider it worship to be alone in nature. Genesis 2:15, “Then the LORD God took the man and placed him in the Garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it.” The word cultivate in this translation is a word that also can be translated as worship. Although different than when Abraham took Isaac to worship in Genesis 22:5, which means to bow down, the word in Genesis 2:15 means “to be in the service of”, when we are serving our Creator it is a form of worship.
