Most people today think of Hanukkah as nothing more than a little oil that lasted for 8 days. Of all the original writing concerning the defeat of the Greek army, there is no mention of this either by the Maccabees or even Josephus. The first time this story is mentioned is found in a document from the fifth century AD almost 700 years after the event. So why does Hanukkah last eight days? 2 Maccabees 10:6, “And they celebrated it for eight days with rejoicing, in the manner of the feast of booths, remembering how not long before, during the feast of booths, they had been wandering in the mountains and caves like wild animals.” The people at the time chose a celebration based on the great feast, Sukkot, the feast of tabernacles to commemorate the rededication of the temple and remember all of the miracles that the Creator did to make it possible.

Thought for Today: Wednesday December 06

When you get into a tight place and everything is against you, until it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then -- for that is just the place and time that YHVH will turn the tide.

Overcome Hypersensitivity

Abba, forgive me for my attempts to hurt and dominate others. I realise that I have released my anger inappropriately. I confess this as sin and receive Your forgiveness, knowing that You are faithful and just to forgive my sins and cleanse me from all unrighteousness. I forgive those who have wronged me, and I ask for healing of my anger and unresolved hurts. I realised that I am responsible for my own behaviour, and I am accountable to You for my thoughts, words and actions. Thank You for Ruach HaKodesh who leads me into reality -- the truth that makes me free. You have sent Your Word and healed me and delivered me from all my destructions. Abba, I am empowered through my union with You. I draw my strength from You; the strength which Your boundless might provide. Your strength causes me to be steadfast and trustworthy and gives me the capacity for perseverance and tolerance and enables me to resist hypersensitivity, irritability and touchiness. I desire to be well balanced, tempered, sober of mind, vigilant and cautious at all times -- for I recognise that enemy, the devil, who roams around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to cease upon and devour. In the Name of Yeshua, I withstand him, firm in faith, against his onset – rooted, established, strong, immovable and determined. I’m dwelling in a secret place of the Most High and I shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty, Whose Power no foe can withstand. I purpose to walk in love towards my family members, my associates, and my neighbours with the help of Ruach HaKodesh. Whom the Son has set free, is free indeed. Thanks be to You, Abba, for You always cause me to triumph in Yeshua Moshiach. I am an overcomer by the Blood of a Lamb and by the word of my testimony. In Yeshua’ Name I pray. Amein.

I'm not gonna tell you who to side with, but I've been bullied by my government since before I was ten. I'm gonna say things that mess with your fake zen. People can put on blindfolds, but we live in the lion's den. My first fake friend was named Ben, but the masses only care about getting the next gen. we bomb civilians, but I'm a terrorist because I write facts with a pen. We are owned by corporations that own both the Shekel and the Yen. People would rather war for one sided freedom, hating Yahuah but love idols like amen. They got billions of slaves sitting in cages like a hen. When Scripture talks about being a taught one it means your mind is born again. The end of this era is coming, but I don't know when. We say it's okay in the west, but not in the east, but on a world stage, you can do what you want if you're one of those Zionist businessmen.
