Thought for Today: Thursday January 11

Since Yeshua lives within us, the care we show to others is a reflection of His love and the blessings we bring are an extension of Who He is.

Healing Prayer:
Heavenly Abba, thank You for being my strength and my song; You truly are my strength and my shield and in Your joy I find my strength. Help me to remain quiet and confident at all times, because I realize this gives strength to me. With Your help I will endeavour to follow Your ways at all times, because I know this will bring strength to me. Indeed I will trust You forever, for You are my everlasting strength. Thank You for allowing me to know You Abba, for I realize that this makes me strong. Fill me with Ruach HaKodesh, because I know He will quicken my mortal body as He dwells within me. Thank You for all the dynamic promises of Your Word Abba. My Adonai and my YHVH, You are my strength, and I know it is not by might nor by power, but by Your Spirit that I shall prevail. Thank You for His strength in my life Abba. I bless You O my YHVH, for You are my strength and You teach my hands to war and my fingers to fight. Therefore, I know I shall be strong. Thank You for giving Your strength to me Abba. In the All-powerful Name of Yeshua I pray, amein.

"Doth he thank that servant, because he did that which was commanded unto him? I think not.
So likewise ye, when ye have done all those things, which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do."

Lk 17

Here is your question for Yom Chamishy found in today's Torah portion in Shemoth 8:11-22:

What did YHWH tell Mosheh to tell Pharaoh about the swarms of flies in relation to Goshen?

14 Va’eira – Day 5
Sh’moth 8:7-22
Pharaoh then called for Mosheh and Aharon, and said, “Pray to YHWH to take away the frogs from me and from my people, and I shall let the people go to slaughter to YHWH.”
And Mosheh said to Pharaoh, “Explain yourself to me: When am I to pray for you, and for your servants, and for your people, to destroy the frogs from you and your houses, and remain only in the river?”
So he said, “Tomorrow.” And he said, “Let it be according to your word, so that you know that there is no one like YHWH our Elohim.
“And the frogs shall turn aside from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your people – they shall remain in the river only.”
And Mosheh and Aharon went out from Pharaoh. And Mosheh cried out to YHWH concerning the frogs which He had brought against Pharaoh.
And YHWH did according to the word of Mosheh. And the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courtyards, and out of the fields.
And they gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
And when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart and did not listen to them, as YHWH had said.
And YHWH said to Mosheh, “Say to Aharon, ‘Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the land, so that it becomes gnats in all the land of Mitsrayim.’”
And they did so, and Aharon stretched out his hand with his rod and struck the dust of the earth, and it became gnats on man and beast. All the dust of the land became gnats in all the land of Mitsrayim.
And the magicians did similarly with their magic to bring forth gnats, but they were unable. And there were gnats on man and beast.
The magicians then said to Pharaoh, “This is the finger of Elohim!” But the heart of Pharaoh was strengthened, and he did not listen to them, as YHWH had said.
And YHWH said to Mosheh, “Rise early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh as he comes out to the water, and say to him, ‘Thus said YHWH, “Let My people go, so that they serve Me.
“Or else, if you do not let My people go, see, I am sending swarms of flies on you and your servants, and on your people and into your houses. And the houses of the Mitsrites shall be filled with swarms of flies, and also the ground on which they stand.
“And in that day I shall separate the land of Goshen, in which My people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, so that you know that I am YHWH in the midst of the land.

Tehillah 81 - Day 5 (Yom Chamishy)
Shout for joy to Elohim our strength; Raise a shout to the Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ.
Lift up a song and beat the tambourine, The pleasant lyre and with the harp.
Blow a shophar in the New moon, in the covering for the day of our festival.
For this is a law for Yisra’ěl, And a judgment of the Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ.
He appointed it in Yehosěph for a witness, When He went throughout the land of Mitsrayim; I heard a language that I did not know.
He says, “I removed his shoulder from the burden; His hands were freed from the baskets.
“You called in distress, and I rescued you; I answered you in the covering of thunder; I proved you at the waters of Meriḇah. Selah.
“Hear, O My people, and let Me warn you, O Yisra’ěl, if you would listen to Me!
“Let there be no strange mighty one among you, And do not bow down to a foreign mighty one.
“I am YHWH your Elohim, Who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim; Open your mouth wide, and I fill it.
“But My people did not listen to My voice, And Yisra’ěl would not submit to Me.
“So I gave them over to their own stubborn heart, To walk in their own counsels.
“O, if My people had listened to Me, Yisra’ěl would walk in My ways, I would subdue their enemies at once, And turn My hand against their adversaries!
“Those who hate YHWH would cringe before Him; And their time of punishment be forever.
“He would feed them with the finest of wheat; And with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”
