Parsha “Bechukotai” (Leviticus 26:2 through the end of the Book) contains one of the two most dramatic sets of ‘blessings and cursings,’ but particularly cursings, in all of Scripture. And it is, as Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa demonstrates, utterly relevant now.
First, the Erev Shabbat reading:
The Sabbath Day midrash starts with a reminder: We are NOT in the land; we’re in exile.
But America’s Founding Fathers knew that. In August, 1776, Ben Franklin, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson were tasked with coming up with a suggested design for the Great Seal of the united States. Both Franklin and Jefferson wanted a depiction of then-Israel from the Exodus. Ben Franklin described a scene from the ‘parting of the Red Sea,’ with the inscription, later adopted, that “Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God.”
Yet they also clearly understood what was at the heart of the message of Leviticus chapter 26: “IF you will walk in My statutes, and keep My commandments,” you will be blessed. They believed that in this New land, there was a Covenant to be kept.
But now, what is beyond doubt is not merely that it has been broken, but that what He says in verse 15 is true: That this has become a nation, and a world, that rejects His statutes, and has a soul which abhors His laws. And, evidently as a direct result, “those that hate you,” do “rule over you?”
And what, exactly, does it look like when YHVH Himself “appoints terror over you?”
Mark Call, of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship, observes that we are about to find out.
The combined two-part teaching is here:
The Israel Summit was held in Franklin, Tennessee on May 20-22. All of the messages shared were calls to action. It is time for believers in Yeshua the Messiah to STAND WITH ISRAEL and the Jewish people. Today, we share two STELLAR messages from this conference with you:
Caroline Glick: “What was Hamas’ Plan for Oct 7?” What was Hamas’ plan for October 7th, did they really think they could win? Caroline Glick tackles this complicated subject in her extraordinary talk given at our Israel Summit in Nashville, Tennessee.
Robert Stearns: “American Church, Where are You?”
And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD’S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. Isaiah 2:2
Listen to Robert Stearn’s fiery message from The Israel Summit event. It is a “now word”… something that we must hear, receive, and act on.
“Moses, Where are you? Why are you here at this burning bush? Why are you tending sheep when you should be confronting Pharoah? Where are you Esther? Are you a beauty pageant winner or a Queen who will deliver her people? Where are you today? It is not about location. It is about identity. American church, where are you?”
If you are not on your way to Zion, you’re going in the wrong direction!
Isaiah chapter 37 could be called a great story of Faith, and of Truth.
And it is followed up, in chapter 38, by what Ray Harrison points out is one the two most dramatic illustrations in Scripture of what might constitute proofs for ‘Divine Intervention’ in astronomy.
News, commentary, and some questions that are arguably long overdue. Why do we trust a level of Evil that is nothing short of Satanic?
Jeff Prystupa, David Justice, and Mark Call talk about the news – and a lot of other things! – in a week where even the most blind among us have to recognize that something is horribly wrong.
Which tells us what?
To no one’s surprise – except perhaps for the LEVEL of perfidy – a dozen hand-selected NY morons read their script. The next plandemic remains on track. And the Bear may have had just about enough of being poked by bratty delinquents with sticks.
Those of us with “eyes to see” watch in disgust.
Some of what we can see so clearly coming, we can prepare for. Other parts we can only pray about.
But there is something we can do in every case!
Trust – or the justified Lack Thereof – Part 2
How do we get our lives unstuck? Is belief alone the thing that gets our lives moving and producing the kind of fruit we & God desire? How do we actualize the idealized version of ourselves?
In this series, we are seeking to answer the question Yeshua asked His disciples in John 1:38, “What do you want?”. Not only are we going to find out what we truly desire, but also some proven ways to become the image-bearing people we were created to be.
