Thought for Today: Monday February 21:
Worship YHVH ONLY! Idolatry has always been a downfall of His people. YHVH makes no secret of being a jealous Elohim. Current idols are more subtle than ancient ones because today’s false gods are often outside any religion. People, possessions, status, self-aggrandizement and pride are some of the most deities today. Beware of bowing down before these things. False gods never satisfy! Instead, they stir up lust for more and more. When you seek YHVH instead of world idols, you Experience His Joy and Peace. These intangibles slake the thirst of your soul, providing deep satisfaction. The glitter of the world is tiny and temporal, but the Light of YHVH’s Presence is Brilliant and Everlasting. Walk in the Light with YHVH. Thus, you will become a beacon through whom others are drawn to Him.
A good idea I was reminded of that my family did when I was young. We each got turns to find something to pray for each week. We had a bulletin board and pinned each prayer request, written on slips of paper, to it. We had prayer each evening and morning. When a request was answered, we would move it to a separate board and we would use that board as the faith building board. I might do something similar now too. We got to where we would see patterns of answered prayer. Stories of people like George Müller, Hudson Taylor, and Charles Finney were often read to bolster our faith. Now, I pray to have my prayers answered so long as the prayer is in line with a promise in scripture. For a quick example, we know that God is not willing that any should perish but have everlasting life. So when we pray, we can say, Father, you say you are not willing that any man perish without salvation. We claim this promise as we believe it applies here. Bring...... to salvation. Amen.
This is a second thought. To often we sayin Yeshua's name etc. This reduces our faith and makes us feel like it may not be a prayer that is answerable. Not that this is wrong, but it makes our prayers, like petitions with no law or statement following it. If it is promised in the word of God, we must boldly approach the throne of Grace and plead with God. Remember, We are not servants, dependant on the wages from our employer but rather, Adopted sons and if sons, heirs of the promise of eternal life together.

Psalm 30:4-5
Sing praises to YHVH, O you His righteous, and give thanks to His Holy Name. For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning.
Ecclesiastes 3:11,
“He has made everything beautiful in its time.”

This week's email will be about one of Paul's statements that is often interpreted to mean exactly the opposite of what it says:
For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law.
Romans 2:14

Shalom friends!
My name is Dee. My Hebrew name is Rivka yael anava. I live in eastern Pa. I love to sing and teach Hebrew. I love to share healthy recipes and life with friends.
I became a christian at 16, fell in love with God and dedicated my life to Him. I went through much trauma as a child, His spirit changed me, showed me I am able to be loved. That I wasnt just a tool for use and disposal.
I always questioned many things in the Christian faith, the number 1 thing I questioned since I came to the faith was “why dont we observe shabbat?” I asked this 2 more times to 2 different pastors over the course of like 20 years and I never got a satisfactory answer and at 36, I questioned my faith in general. Looked around at the church and didnt see anything remotely resembling the faith of Yeshua. I dug very deep and cried many nights asking for truth. One night after a bible study, I was cleaning up and closing up the church. I walked through the vestibule that I had so many times before and the beautiful plaque that had the 10 commandments in it, almost beckoned me to come near. I approached it slowly, as I got closer, the gold lettering in the 4th commandment seemed to glow brighter and raise off of the plaque. “Remember The Sabbath day and keep it holy.” I melted and cried right there. I did not understand why God kept putting this in front of me, but I was no longer going to ignore it. That began my journey. I learned Hebrew 10 years ago, went to Israel and I changed my understand completely. Im 46 now and try to live my life in truth daily. My family is tolerant of me, and supportive but do not follow in my footsteps. Its lonely sometimes, but I still follow Him.
My testimony is too big to share here. Maybe one day Ill share more if I find an opportunity.
Aleph is the first letter of the hebrew aleph bet. This sound takes on the vowel points under, beside or over it.
It can make the ah, ee, oh or ooh sound.
