Yom Shlishi, Nisan 30, 6003 – April 17, 2018

Building Desire

We have within us the laws of God written on our hearts and minds.

Hebrews 8:10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.

While the old covenant was something written in stone and scrolls that man tried to do from the outside in, the new covenant is those laws written in the heart and mind. A mistake often made is that it is the Law that is the old covenant. This in not accurate. This same Law written on the heart and mind is the new covenant. The old covenant was external, the new covenant is internal. The Law is the same. This is the kingdom of God.

Luke 17:20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

We are called to build one another and ourselves up, speaking the things of God, that we might raise people up to be like our Messiah. When God converts their hearts, they will respond and do that which is in their heart. It is an ongoing work, that is in their hearts and transforming their lives. We continue to study scripture to learn about what is contained there, but it is the personal time in prayer, praise, and conversation with the Father that we become priests after the order of Melchisedec. That priesthood is one of the heart being turned toward God, and of laying down one’s life.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here into the hearts of mankind. Let Your will be done here on earth as it is in heaven, where the sun, moon, and the stars show Your perfect will without fail. Send us today Your abundant provision that we might also overflow to those around us. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Deliver us from the evil that tries to come between us all. Restore our hearts and minds that we might more fully turn them to you. If You heal us and wipe away our thoughts and memories of evil done to us or by us, we shall be cleansed and healed. My King, only You can prevail in these times. I call to You now to help us to be what You have called us to be that we might receive more fully the blessings promised. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). We ask all these things in the name that is dear to us Father, Your name YAH. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah, YAH Yeshuah. Amen.
