LIFE IS BUILT ON PRINCIPLES

But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.
I Peter 1:25 [KJV]

Man’s ability to fulfill his purpose and to be all Yahweh intended him to be is predicated on the requirement that he obey the principles Yahweh established when He created human beings. Principle is a law that explains the fundamental reasons of the working of something in nature. Why is this true?  Yahweh is a God of principles.  Everything He created was established to operate by certain principles that guarantee its proper function.  This pattern in creation includes human beings.  We were created to operate by principles that Yahweh established before He created us.  These principles or rules of operation for human beings are found throughout the Bible, although they are not always referred to as principles.  They may also be referred to as Yahweh’s laws, ordinances, precepts, statutes, commands, commandments, decrees, instructions, word, and ways. Although the meaning of each of these words carries a slightly different nuance from the others, they all carry within them the basic concept of a principle, which is a law that is established to preserve and protect a created thing and to assure its maximum performance.  So each time these words occur in Scripture, the particular word used may be removed and the word principle may be inserted in its place.

Psalms 19:7-11 and 119:9-11 reveal the necessity of understanding and obeying Yahweh’s principles of creation.  This is true because only the manufacturer of a product knows what factors are necessary to obtain the maximum operation of the product.  In essence, you can’t use a product according to your own ideas and expect it to fulfill what the manufacturer promised it could and would do.  If you want a product to work, doing all that the manufacturer said it would do, you have to obey the principles (laws, commandments, instructions, etc.) of the one who designed and made the product.  We may prefer lawlessness, which is the freedom to do whatever we want to do, but our very creation by Yahweh, our Manufacturer and Source, requires that we follow His principles.  Should we choose lawlessness—doing what we want, when we want, how we want—we can expect to reap the inevitable results, which include slavery, death, and the loss of privileges or freedoms.  This is precisely what happened to the man and the woman in the Garden of Eden.

Yahweh’s command in Genesis 2:16-17 contains an inherent judgment.  The more serious consequence of man’s disregard for Yahweh’s principles for life in the garden was his loss of the Holy Spirit and his subsequent separation from Yahweh.  In truth, man cannot and will not live up to the potential and purpose Yahweh built into him until the love and intimacy Yahweh and man enjoyed in the garden is restored.  Because life in the presence of Yahweh is man’s ideal environment, Yahweh’s presence is also man’s greatest need.  Selah!

REMEMBER:   Life is built on principles and disregard for the laws of Yahweh is calamity waiting to happen.

PRAYER:    Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word to me today.  I receive the grace to treasure your Word in my life from this day in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

PROPHETIC RELEASE:   I see you receiving the revelation that will birth a revolution in your life in this great month in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
