It finally did it. The stock market dropped over 700 points today. Comex dropped a little. All their paper printing to manipulate the markets finally caught up to them, except silver & gold are still suppressed. Get physical. It will eventually be worth far more than we can imagine! Thank Yah I don't gamble with stocks!

It's interesting how the silver price has just been hovering around the £17-£19 range for the past 10 months and mining firms like First Majestic has dropped 45% in the same period.

Boggles my mind... ?

The Curtain over the Holy of Holies was supported by FOUR GOLD-plated WOODEN pillars set in SILVER sockets. The only way to the Ark of the Covenant, where God's presence would descend to commune with Moses, was through this curtain.

4 = Life, All of something
Silver = Blood, atonement
Wood = Mortal living flesh
Gold = Perfect righteousness

Yeshua, the only purely righteous man, gave his whole life to become the only way to the Father.

Blows that wound scour away evil, and beatings purge the innermost being.
Proverbs 20:30 TLV

Troubles in life are often the result of bad decisions or warnings to change course. If you ignore those warnings, the troubles will only get worse.

Hi, Rhy! Hope you had a restful shabbat. Just wanted to bring one thing up since Lupercalia is on Wed. The heart symbol comes from that pagan festival. It doesn't represent real love, but rather, lust. It's a symbol made to look like a pubic mound. I am grateful you have made the emoji's bigger so I can easily hit thumbs up instead of one I don't mean to. It's made a big difference! Do some research on lupercalia and pagan symbolism. You may be shocked by what you find. You may find a check mark or something else is more appropriate for a set apart site. I just thought maybe you're unaware. Whatever you decide, I'm content with thumbs up & smileys .

I had a bit of a search for the origins of the heart shape as a symbol of love which looks like it can be traced back to ancient civilizations, though pinpointing an exact origin is challenging due to its gradual evolution over time.

One popular theory suggests that the heart shape may have originated from the seed or fruit of the silphium plant, a species of giant fennel that grew in the ancient Greek city of Cyrene, located in present-day Libya. The silphium plant was highly prized in antiquity for its medicinal and contraceptive properties, and its seed pods bore a striking resemblance to the modern heart shape.

It was used as a contraceptive during the feasts and temple prostitution. So much so that it became extinct.

In regards to Lupercalia, I have found is that the connection between the heart shape and Lupercalia, an ancient Roman festival celebrated in mid-February, is not direct, but there are some historical links and cultural influences that may have contributed to the association.

Lupercalia was an annual festival dedicated to fertility, purification, and the coming of spring. It involved rituals where priests known as Luperci would sacrifice goats and dogs, and then run through the streets of Rome, striking people with strips of the animals' hides. It was believed that this ritual would purify and protect the city, promote fertility, and ward off evil spirits.

One aspect of Lupercalia that might have influenced the association with the heart shape is its connection to fertility and sexuality. The festival was characterized by its emphasis on love and desire, with participants engaging in various rites and activities to promote fertility and ensure the health of the community.

Over time, as Christianity spread throughout the Roman Empire and eventually supplanted pagan traditions like Lupercalia, elements of the festival were absorbed into Christian celebrations. The timing of Lupercalia coincided with the feast day of St. Valentine, a Christian martyr who was purportedly executed on February 14th. Over the centuries, the traditions and symbolism of Lupercalia became intertwined with those of Valentine's Day, including the association with love and romance.

While there is no direct evidence linking the heart shape specifically to Lupercalia, it's possible that the festival's focus on love, fertility, and purification contributed to the broader cultural associations that eventually led to the heart shape becoming a symbol of love and romance in Western culture.

Who can say: “I have kept my heart pure; I am cleansed from my sin”?
#proverbs 20:9 TLV

No one but #yeshua is ever perfectly pure. As soon as you repent, take a mikvah, or make your offering, you have already sinned in some way in your heart.

Most people don’t even attempt to try. They believe that their words are good enough.

Moreover, you shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet yarns; you shall make them with cherubim skillfully worked into them.
Exodus 26:1

There are ten curtains of the tabernacle in this verse. Perhaps because we are to be clothed in the Ten Commandments? IDK. Unlike our own clothing, the Mishkan's covering was made of interwoven wool and linen. Torah forbids wearing clothes made of a linen/wool mixture.

There are actually four types of "voices" which we hear speaking to us and it is important that we learn to distinguish each one so that we are able to discern the true voice of YHVH:

1 -- The voice that is perhaps the most obvious is our own voice. In addition to our speaking voice, we also talk to ourselves inside our heads, we see images and pictures inside our heads, we have emotions and feelings and desires and so on. Our minds tell us what we think, our wills tell us what we want and our emotions tell us how we feel. The Bible refers to our minds, wills and emotions as our "flesh nature".

2 -- Another type of voice which clamours for our attention is the "voice" of other people. Sometimes people say things which are true, noble and good and sometimes people say things which are just the opposite.

3 -- The third type of voice is the "voice" of the devil. The devil has crafty ways of speaking to us which he has perfected over the millennia. He does not appear before us in a red, cloven-hoofed suit and speak out loud to us, he is much more subtle than that. What he does is to throw thoughts into our minds like flaming arrows and he speaks to us through the worldly ideas and viewpoints that he has injected into other people.

4 -- The fourth and final type of voice is the most important, but it is also the most subtle. It is the voice of YHVH. YHVH does not speak to us in our minds, He speaks to us in our spirits because that is where the Holy Spirit lives.

Unfortunately, we tend to spend most of our thought life in our heads, in other words in "the mind of the flesh" (Romans 8:7, AMP), focused on the sensory world around us where our physical senses and our thoughts, feelings, desires and emotions are constantly being bombarded and stimulated in worldly, carnal, fleshly ways. We tend to live on the shallow surface, so to speak, rarely venturing deeper where the Spirit of YHVH lives within us. The result is that many of us do not know where our spirits are nor how to hear and be led by our spirits. Because of this we leave ourselves wide open to fall for the many deceptions of the devil.

In order to hear YHVH's voice and to discern His leading for your daily life, there is one key point that you need to be aware of. If you can grab hold of this one key point then you'll be hearing from YHVH in no time! Here it is:

Don't expect YHVH to speak to you in a sensational, spectacular, supernatural way!

You see, we have a natural tendency to want YHVH to speak out loud to us in some obvious way so that we know that it was Him and so that we know what we are supposed to do. YHVH occasionally does speak to people in "the audible voice of YHVH" or in some other sensational way, but those are not His usual ways of speaking to us.

Why? Because YHVH is into faith and without faith it is impossible to please Him (Hebrews 11:6). The thing about faith is that it requires that we don't have all of our questions answered! If YHVH were to speak out loud to us all the time so that we know it is YHVH speaking to us, then we wouldn't need faith to hear Him.

On the other hand, if YHVH speaks so softly to us that we need to get into the habit of listening closely to our spirits and drawing closer to YHVH in order to hear Him better, then there is a lot of faith involved and it requires cultivating a deeper, more personal, more intimate relationship with Adonai. This is exactly what YHVH is after!

The plain and simple fact is that YHVH usually speaks to us in such a quiet, non-spectacular way that we are almost never going to be 100% certain that we heard Him speaking to us and we just need to get used to that. Once we get past the "hang up" of needing to hear from YHVH in spectacular, loud, supernatural ways, then we will find ourselves beginning to recognize the still, small voice which He usually uses.

For example, have you ever done something that bothered your conscience? Deep down inside you knew that it was wrong, but how did you know? It was because there is something way down inside of us that knows when something is right or wrong. Somehow our "knower" knows these things and it bothers our conscience when we do things that our "knower" knows is not right. This "knower" which we sense way down deep inside of us is where YHVH often tends to speak to us. There is nothing spectacular about it, there is nothing sensational about it. It is the still, small voice of YHVH.

So, to make it visual for myself:

1. my physical voice and thoughts

2. external audible voices (which then causes thoughts as well)

3. images/desires in my mind which is out of line with Scripture

4. This one I am struggling to fully comprehend. It looks like our conscience plays a part in this. Is Father using our conscience to speak with us or is our conscience purely the Spirit?

Isn't the conscience simply a "yes/no engine" to lead us straight?

I believe that we need to become still in ourselves to hear Father, which is a problem for me as my head is always busy. Even during prayer I have to pull myself back from thinking about "the worries of this world".

How do you personally achieve this? Is there a "method" to become still?

One thing that helps me with distractions is to speak out loud. Speaking prayers out loud can help focus, but not always. So does writing my prayers. Reading the Word with intentionality and slowly will often times trigger insights. I'm always talking to Abba. I ask him to show me things and to show me in ways I can get it. To speak to me in ways I can hear it.

When I am reminded of past things, I thank Him for bringing me out of it and that I'm no longer in that place. I thank Him for the lessons learned from mistakes I've made, sins I've committed, or from the sins that have been committed against me.

I also believe I will speak to us in ways we may not recognize. I believe every insight I receive, every good idea I get, is from Him. We are told every good gift and every perfect gift comes from above, from the Father of Light. So I thank Him, as much as I can remember to do so, for every good thing, no matter how simple. Yes, I do thank him for the good part in space, for the special price in the store, for finding what I needed to thrift store. I thank him for anything and everything that's good.
Love
