Job 19:25 is especially beautiful in the Koren Magerman Tanakh 2021, here it reads:

"As for myself, I know my Redeemer lives, and He will rise from the dust at last."

It's amazing that the risen God is my Redeemer, and that Job knew this all the way back then!

There is yet another #chiasm on blessing and protection for obedience to God's #torah in #deuteronomy 28:8-11.

.God blesses all you do in the land.
...He will establish you for himself.
.....If you obey.
...People will see you are God's.
.God blesses all you do in the land.

You don't have to be perfect to be blessed by God, but can't ignore your sins either. Keep working it out. Keep striving for perfection. See also Deuteronomy 28:13-14.

And if you faithfully obey the voice of YHWH your God, being careful to do all his commandments that I command you today, YHWH your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth.
Deuteronomy 28:1

God's promises to Israel were given in conditional terms, but He also assured them that the conditions will be met one way or another. This verse says God will elevate Israel above all nations *if* they obey, but 26:18 says it *will* happen. Therefore, Israel *will* repent and return to God's Law someday.

What is really keeping you from following the invitation of the King?


Let's pray Abba will help us all to overcome the obstacles, because for our flesh it is too hard for us to go up to Jerusalem.

The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold, and a man is tested by his praise.
Proverbs 27:21 ESV

How a person responds to praise will tell you almost as much about him as how he responds to criticism. Both tend to reveal the inner man, especially when sustained.

I hope you all are having a great day. The end times are really intensifying. A lot is going to happen this fall. I suspect that the Abraham Accords signed back in 2020 will be strengthened soon and we will enter the 7 year period before Messiah returns. This is the peace treaty with Yisrael, or the "covenant with many"

Dan 9:27  Then he will make a firm covenant with many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on a wing of abominations will come one who destroys, until the decreed annihilation is poured out on the one who destroys.’”

Is it one of these,
Or something else...
