Abba, I thank You for creating within me a wise and discerning heart, so that I am able to distinguish between right and wrong. This is my prayer that my love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that I may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Moshiach, filled with the fruit of the righteousness that comes through Yeshua Moshiach -- to Your glory and praise, O Adonai. Abba, I trust in You all my heart and lean not on my own understanding; in all of my ways I acknowledge You, and You will make my paths straight. Through Your precepts I get understanding; therefore, I hate every false way. Your word is a Lamp onto my feet and a Light to my path. Joseph in Genesis 41: 39-41 was described as a discerning and wise man who was put in charge of the entire land of Egypt. As You were with Joseph, so shall You be with me. You will cause me to find favour in my place of employment, at home, or wherever I may be. I make a special request, asking that I may be filled with the full -- deep and clear -- knowledge of Your will in all spiritual wisdom and in understanding and discernment of spiritual things -- that I may walk; live and conduct myself; in a manner worthy of You my Adonai, fully pleasing to You and desiring to please You in all things, steadily growing and increasing in and by Your knowledge -- with full deeper and clearer insight, acquaintance and recognition. Because Yeshua has been made unto me wisdom, I listen and add to my learning; I discern and get guidance, understanding Your will. In the Name of Yeshua I pray, amein.

Here's the archive of last night's Bible study, called "Why Yeshua," which discusses the basics of the Christian faith and would be good to share with unbelievers or those who are seeking Christ: https://firstfruits.cc/blog/2023/12/27/why-yeshua
And now your two sons, who were born to you in the land of Egypt before I came to you in Egypt, are mine; Ephraim and Manasseh shall be mine, as Reuben and Simeon are.
#genesis 48:5 #vayekhi
The names of Joseph's two eldest sons were prophetic of their future role in the nation and the world, and Ephraim and Manasseh effectively replaced Reuben and Simeon as first and second born. Although the blessing of Abraham was shared by all of Jacob's sons, the traditional firstborn blessing of double-inheritance, kingship, and priesthood was divided between Joseph, Judah, and Levi, respectively. Reuben and Simeon were demoted to the family's rank and file.

We all have our ups and downs, but you can’t say that one of us is without pride. I talk a lot but to cover up the truth I’ll admit that I straight out lied. The heart is broken, but life is what I applied. Low stream or high water, you two can still be held in the high tide. I know some days it’ll feel like you’re being fried, but the love of another I gave up once, and to this day I know it was my fault and I wish I could say I have the perfect guide, but humanity has it’s own ways they wish to abide. Even now I’ll admit that I still cried. 11 year anniversary today since the day I died. Money isn’t everything, but you’ll fail if you can’t emotionally provide. You can hope and hope, just remember that the world is open wide. The trip isn’t meant for all and if you don’t seek your best friend then you’ll have one hellish of a ride. I have words based on personal experience and a few actions I could have supplied. I’m sorry I held my tongue just allowing it to become untied.
[God] said to me, ‘Behold, I will make you fruitful and multiply you, and I will make of you a company of peoples and will give this land to your offspring after you for an everlasting possession.’
Genesis 48:4
Israel's ownership of the land of #israel is forever inviolable. It was promised by YHWH with no conditions attached and YHWH does not renege on his promises. Jacob's exile was always meant to be temporary.
