What a great and exciting parashah (portion)! Out of the Rivers of Egypt come 7 complete examples of Life and Death. Read on to see a special name that Joseph was given. What do you think the cows represent? How about the river? Why did Joseph make the family come back 3 times? What did Pharaoh make all of Egypt do when they were in the famine? All of this is a picture of Yeshua and the Bride (YOU)
Israel loves his son so much, he gives him a coat, like a family coat; something you would give a first-born. Joseph was the first-born of Rachel. This display of favoritism to one son caused a wild degree of resentment and jealousy. Do you think this is the kind of jealousy that Yahweh will provoke in Judah, as we see in Romans 11:11?
Jacob is Blessed, but doesn’t seem to spend much time with Yahweh like our mentor Abraham, much like the Bride of Messiah of today. We see that he is full of fear. So Yahweh meets with him, wrestles all night, spends all this time working out his fears of the world and worldly desires. We see a great change in Jacob; from this point on He is Israel!! It seems this change is from the letter to the Spirit, as it is becoming in You!
This study shows us life in Yeshua, the Mayim Chaim. It also shows the deceit and the control of the worldly items in our hearts. The fear of man and of the world systems causes us to do some foolish things as we see Jacob/Yakov doing. Yahweh made a mighty covenant with him, the same one He made with his fathers. This is the same covenant he made with you today, because of the covenant through the seed of Abraham, Yeshua. I pray we walk in His obedience, which brings authority in your life. Let these examples in Torah encourage you to know Him in a way you have never known before.
Be Transformed This Year!
You are preparing the Generations (Toldot) to come! Who are they??
These are the generations, descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; but these are also the Generations of Abraham & his Seed, Yeshua/Jesus, and you. All of this is from the Covenant that has been renewed from Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and then again in Jeremiah 31:31-34 and Hebrews 8:8-12. These are the Generations of His Love and Compassion for His Bride, through the redemption of the Son-ship and the Spirit of Adoption. Praise His Name that you can be grafted into His genealogy. This study can show us how we can choose the right birthright, the right kingdom, and how to serve the right God. We also learn how to live from the wells that give living water, that give life and give it more abundantly!
We have become the Living Stones with ALL the WORDS of Yahweh written on them, so we don’t have to walk in the curses, therefore choose the blessings, by your Lifestyle because it is YOUR LIFE!!
Are you finding that Messiah is always on your mind?? The Torah was alive then and now It is alive in you, don’t just read the Torah, become the Living Torah. Did you know Yeshua was with them in the Wilderness & the Torah was alive??
You have been scattered, you are already sent out, now What?? Scatter, gather, give religion or give life? Is the River of Life flowing from your inner most being?? You are a great picture of Yeshua, He is the Tabernacle in you, maybe you are His Sukkot?? Notice there are 74 mitzvot or commandments. Many of these were taught by Messiah. He taught them in the Kingdom, He didn’t just explain them, HE taught them from a Kingdom perspective. I will give you a secret, “He taught using the mind of Messiah’, not the mind of man!!” Can you take these mitzvot and explain them in the Kingdom??
Notice the Word “Sent” or “Shalach” also means to SOW. You are a sower, you sow who you are. Do you sow Life, Love and Messiah or do you sow “Common”??
Re’eh (or Ra’ah) is not just ‘To See’, but “Discern-Perceive”. This is your beginning relationship with Your Father. As we progress it should become a relationship of intimate experience, to really “Know” or “Yada” our Father. This is the experience the remnant- within- the-remnant is beginning to “Experience”. We have a God who tells us not to make any images, and He Has no image or Form, Can you see HIM on this earth, In one another. Are you HIS life, if you are the Light of the World then you give HIM Life. John 1:4-5
“Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken (SHEMA) to these judgments, (Mishpat-deliverance from evil ways) and keep (Shemar - guard), and do them, that Yahweh your Elohim shall keep unto you the Aleph Tav, (Messiah) covenant and the mercy which he swore unto thy fathers:”
