Messiah Echad

You’re the one who conquers giants, and calls out kings. You are the One Messiah, and You are I Am. We are so blessed to know the veil is torn, and know we live, with Your spirit inside. After praise and worship, Pastor Harry summarized Beshalach, And he sent, Exodus 13:17 – 17:16. God led the Israelites through the Red Sea, then provided manna, quail, and water, but complaints against Moses ensued. Next, we gave praise to God for fixed laptops, and prayed for osteoarthritis, after which Rabbi Jonathan talked about the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. We should use the gifts in a uniform, not chaotic, fashion, for the common good. Rabbi also shared prophecies he recently received; people have stabbed him in the back yet his roots (not others’) are in the living water, and God anointed our Rabbi. Amen!

Stir in me a love that’s deep. A love that’s wide, and sweet. As my heart burns dim, or my feet fail, call my name God. There is no fear I have in my love for You. I just want to stay close to you. After powerful, prophetic praise and worship, Brother Adam explained the ten plagues, and taught about how in each one, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob defeated several of the Egyptian deities. Praise included our friends learning about torah, and prayer was for literacy, after which Rabbi Jonathan covered our first statement of faith. We discussed if Trinity is the most biblical description of God, and if we all worship the same God. The God we worship is a giving Father who we should love, He is a righteous judge that will weigh our lives, and God dwells in us. For some people, we are close to God as they will ever get.

When the sun comes up, it’s time to sing Your song again. You are rich in love, and Your heart is kind; there are ten thousand reasons to worship God Almighty. After praise and worship, Rabbi Jonathan taught from Va’era, I appeared, Exodus 6:2 – 9:35. Not by the name God Almighty but YHVH, God established a covenant with the descendants of Israel. When enslavement and oppression happens, God always hears the groanings of those in covenant with Him. Yet the most powerful reality is knowing God will redeem us with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judgement. Lastly, God did not make Pharaoh hate the Israelites… Pharaoh already despised them. Then after praise reports of bible reading and prayer for chronic illness, Pastor Duane preached about David, a man after God’s own heart.

As I come into Your presence, past the gates of praise and into Your Sanctuary, I realize that You are awesome in this place, Mighty God. Pastor Harry kicked of 2018 with Parsha Shemot, Names, Exodus 1:1 – 6:1. A new Pharaoh in Egypt did not know Joseph, and oppressed the Israelites, but God had a plan to bless and deliver His people. Moses would be born, raised as royalty, then commissioned to deliver the Children of Israel. After praise reports of healings, and prayer for family in the hospital, Rabbi Jonathan talked about his radio appearance on KRGN 98.5FM, then dove into how we can build Community at Messiah Echad. Learn to love and respect those who worship differently. Do not force your knowledge on people who do not ask. And compete against yourself, not others in Church.

The God we worship is worthy of all our praise, and He alone deserves the glory. Day and night, night and day, let the incense of our prayers arise to God. Pastor Duane summarized torah portion Re’eh, See, Deuteronomy 11:26 – 16:17. God further has set out blessings and curses; one if we obey the commandments, and the other if we turn aside from them. The enemy even, often, disguises the path to curses, but beware, and choose wisely. Then after praise reports of cancers disappearing, and prayer requests for more miracles, Rabbi Jonathan explained how the devil wants us to disobey biblical commands, and not bring our faith into secular institutions. Yet Project Hero invited our Rabbi (Jonathan) to serve as a Chaplain for healing veterans, and we pray his story encourages you to share your faith, everywhere.

Are you hurting and broken? Have you come to the end of yourself? Yeshua (Jesus) is calling for you to come to the altar, and leave behind your mistakes. In the torah portion, Brother Phillip covered Va’etchanan, I Pleaded, from Deuteronomy 3:23 – 7:11. Moses was not permitted to enter the promised land, but he was allowed to see it, and was chosen to deliver the S’hema, V’Ahavta, and Ten Commandments. Recite those commandments daily! Then after praise reports for savings at the dentist, and prayer for healings, Rabbi Jonathan spoke on spiritual warfare, and leveraged the trailer from The Rite (2011) https://youtu.be/yeYQ6DDI0_U. As per Ephesians 6:12, spiritual warfare is real. Have you trained, overcome fear, and removed enough hooks in your life, to defeat demonic forces?

We invite you to get lost in the words “More Love”, “More Power”, “More Of You In My Life”. Today, cast all of your cares on Him. Yes. Rabbi Jonathan did, and he covered Vayechi, He Lived, Genesis 47:28 – 50:26. This parsha was real, and we learned that our Rabbi was confrontational in times past, to include breaking ankles but big picture, is it our place to punish people or play God? If you are a Jacob, help those people in your care, get along. As a Joseph, forgive. And as the Brothers, repent. Finally, after praise reports, a public confession, then prayer requests, Pastor Gunnar from Gateway Church in Dallas (http://gatewaypeople.com/profiles/gunnar-johnson) preached on financial stewardship. Its all about firsts, generosity, minimal debt, saving, margin (profit), budgets, and eternal perspective.

On the seventh night of Chanukah, Kyra Goldman sang Nes Gadol Haya Sham (a great miracle happened there), after which Mayor Dale Ross proclaimed 30 December 2016 Messiah Echad Day. Amen! Then in Shabbat Service, Dr. Greg Silverman blessed us with some Messianic Soul, singing Provide. Oh how awesome it is when El Shaddai (God Almighty) provides for our needs. Brother Mitch covered Miketz, From The End, Genesis 41:1 – 44:17, stating we all have a part to play in building God’s Kingdom. Stay true to your dream! After praise reports and prayer requests, to include another Kyra Goldman song, Rabbi Jonathan spoke on Protecting the Lights of Judaism, and those of Chanukah. And finally, we lit the eighth light for Chanukah, with Police Chief Wayne Nero. And the slides are http://messiahechad.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/31-Dec-2016-Slides.pdf

Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, and we enjoyed singing a new song, to Him who sits on, heaven’s mercy seat. Amen. Brother Philip covered Vayeshev, He Settled, from Genesis 37:1 – 40:23. Joseph was loved by his father, but hated by his brothers… who can relate to this concept? And this was actually a rather racy section in scripture, but the key take away is suffering for our God, is a good thing. Then after praise reports and prayer requests, Rabbi Jonathan spoke on what its like to have a strategy or vision from God, but be hated for it. Yet if we are doing the Lord’s work, things will always work out. Now ask yourself; is Christmas strategic, and winning? What about Chanukah? If you celebrate the later, see you every night at 05pm, in the Georgetown town square! And the slides are http://messiahechad.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/24-Dec-2016-Slides.pdf

There is power, in the name Yeshua (Jesus), and when we declare this, every chain of bondage in our life, is able to be broken. Amen. In the torah portion, Rabbi Jonathan spoke on Vayishlach, He Sent, from Genesis 32:3 – 36:43. God values unity, and He loves our seeking Him in rock bottom moments, but did you know “doing the right thing”, can become a form of idolatry? Simeon and Levi fell to this wickedness, over the Dinah incident, but don’t let it happen to you. Repent. After praise reports and prayer, First Lady Laura shared her heart for the Jewish People, First Lady Delilah talked about prayer and fasting, and Rebbetzin Melinda said we are all in this journey together. So stay with us, check out our redesigned mobile and desktop websites, then prepare for Chanukah!
