Another depiction of Joseph/Yeshua the Savior of the remnant and a picture of a complete sell out of our lives;
There are so many images of Yeshua in this study you can’t miss HIM if you tried! Notice that Joseph tells his brothers that he was sent ahead to prepare a way for the Remnant. We start out with, Judah “drew near: the King;
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.
The people of Israel are commanded to take a census of their numbers in each tribe. It is time we also take stock of our lives - what are we doing right? What are we doing wrong? What glorifies God? What are we doing in attempt to glorify ourselves?
Your life has a purpose - do you know what it is? Have you asked God about it?
This wilderness experience is an ongoing relationship of testing and overcoming. YOU are HIS, and you have been called to be victorious!! You Can Do it!! Through HIM that lives in YOU.
Powerful & Awesome pictures of Salvation; The Year of Jubilee, Yovel, then the most beautiful picture with rewards, physically and spiritually to “Obedience”. Then Chapter 27, You the Priests are going to redeem what belongs to Yahweh. John 3:16, the world in Greek, “cosmos” literally means “the proper order”. You will return the “proper order” to this life. Wow! What He has planned for You is awesome!
“If you walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;
then I will give you rain in due season.”
