THE MYSTERY OF ENVIRONMENT

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.Genesis 1:20 (KJV)

There is a truth the Spirit of the Lord wants to ingrain into your spirit indelibly and that is that you are created to function in the presence of the Lord. If you can understand this and begin to consciously practice His presence, you would have achieved the purpose of today’s word. 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. The presence of Yahweh is the environment that your life and destiny is designed to function in order to be fully actualised. That is why nothing can satisfy the heart of man on earth. The economists says that human desires are insatiable. That is because on earth, nothing can fill the void in man that was designed to be filled only with the manifest presence of Yahweh.

PRAISE IS YOUR PURPOSE

PRAISE IS YOUR PURPOSE

This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
Isaiah 43:21 (KJV)

Purpose is the original intention for the creation of a thing. For everything created there was a purpose behind the manufacturer’s mind for the making of that thing. Man is the creation of Yahweh and He didn’t leave us ignorant of the purpose for Him making man. Dr Myles says that if purpose is not known, abuse is inevitable. The reason there is so much abuse of purpose in the human race is because for most part, most people don’t even know the purpose for which they are alive. They were born into a routine of being born, going to school, getting a job or starting an enterprise, getting married and giving birth to children, growing old and dying. Most people go through this routine and for them, that is life. No wonder, there is so much bustle in the rat race. Everyone wants to beat everyone else. For the majority, there is no consciousness of purpose at all. Consequently, what you don’t know you can’t pursue. The good news is that man has a purpose for his making and it can be discovered. There is the general purpose of man and there is the specific purpose of man. The specific purpose gives the individual the specific ways to fulfil the general purpose. By all means the general purpose is the life assignment of man and that is to show forth the praises of the Yahweh; to bring Yahweh praise and glory. Whatever man is doing that does not fulfil this purpose is a wasted life and securing an eternity in agony and anguish. Though praising Yahweh is our purpose, it is only the living that can praise the Lord (see Isaiah 38:19). Ephesians 2:1 says that we were dead in trespasses and sins. Apostle Paul says that the law came and sin revived in him, thereby killing him (see Romans 7:9). Sin kills and Romans 3:23 says that all have sinned and come short of the glory of Yahweh. Therefore, everyone born of a woman was born in sin, consequently, spiritually dead. That implies that you cannot praise Yahweh until you are alive and living.

PRAISE DEFINED (3)

O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the Lord our maker.
Psalms 95:6 (KJV)

We shall be concluding our discuss on the seven Hebrew words that define praise. We have seen Towdah, Yadah, Halal, Shabach and Zamar in the preceding days. Let’s continue with the sixth.

6. Barak (Strong’s, H1288; Vine’s, “To Bless”), the sixth dimension of praise, is a primitive root meaning, “to kneel, to bless Yahweh as an act of adoration, to salute.” (Psalms 95:6). This is often the response of the human spirit to the presence of Yahweh during praise and worship. While barak is often translated to “bless,” particularly in the King James Version (see Genesis 9:26; Deuteronomy 1:11; Jer

PRAISE DEFINED (2)

Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.
Psalms 150:1 (KJV)

We continue from yesterday and we are beginning today from the third Hebrew word for praise and the third dimension.

3. Halal (Strong’s, H1984; Vine’s, “To Praise”), the third dimension of praise, is derived from a primitive root that means, among other things, “to be clear,” “to shine,” “to make a show,” “to boast,” “to be (clamorously) foolish,” “to rave.” It suggests a sense of foolishness or abandonment in praise. Therefore, some people won’t praise Yahweh with halal because they are too dignified. They refuse to look even a little bit foolish in their celebration of Yahweh. Whenever I think of halal, II Samuel 6:21-22 comes to mind. David said “… therefore, will I play before the Lord.” “and I will yet be more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight …” Wow! This is halal in demonstration. It means to play before the Lord, to be clamorously foolish in giving adoration; to be vile and base in one’s sight just to show Yahweh how much one loves Him. In the Scriptures, in addition to “praise,” halal is translated as “commend” (see Genesis 12:15; Proverbs 12:8), “boast” (see 1 Kings 20:11; Psalms 10:3; 34:2; 97:7), “celebrate” (see Isaiah 38:18), “glory” (see 1 Chronicles 16:10; Psalms 105:3; Isaiah 41:16), “exult” (see Isaiah 45:25), “sing praises” (see 2 Chronicles 23:13), and “shine” (see Job 31:26; 41:18). Since halal is also translated “insane” (see 1 Samuel 21:13), or “fools” and “foolish” (see Job 12:17; Psalms 5:5; 73:3; Ecclesiastes 2:2). Found in the Old Testament more than 160 times, halal may also be used in the praise of people, but the more common usage is in praise of Yahweh—hence, the word Halleluyah, a Hebrew word from the same root, which is usually translated “Praise the LORD!”

PRAISE DEFINED (1)

Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
Psalms 100:4 [KJV]

If man was formed to praise Yahweh, then it is of utmost importance to understand what praise is. Webster’s dictionary defines praise as “an expression of approval: commendation; worship, value, merit. Artha Open Thesaurus defines praise as an expression of approval and commendation; as offering words of homage as an act of worship. In the Bible, we have about seven Hebrew words that defines praise. These seven Hebrew words for praise are like seven dimensions of praise. Praise progresses. After we have introduced the seven Hebrew words for praise, we shall tell you why we say that praise is progressive. For space we may run this praise definition in series in order to cover them.

YAHWEH MADE LIFE TO RUN ON PRINCIPLES

YAHWEH MADE LIFE TO RUN ON PRINCIPLES

And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
John 8:32 [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.

5 Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. 6 Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us.

Beloved, it is with joy and gratitude to our Lord and Master Yahushua HaMashiach and our beloved Heavenly Father that I welcome you to the month of September 2022. It is already the ninth month just like that in this awesome year that we are existing in the Still Waters, Green Pastures side of life. It is my faith that you are enjoying the best of Yahweh. Whatever your situation is today, there is hope for you because you are still alive “for a living dog is better than a dead lion.” (see Ecclesiastes 9:4). In the month of August, we saw that prosperity is your covenant heritage in redemption because “whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.” (Romans 8:30). He has justified you and therefore you are now in glorification and there is nothing glorious in poverty, lack or empty-handedness. If you are in glory, then you are in prosperity, abundance and affluence. No matter what your bank account is saying presently, this is your position in HaMashiach now and you walk into its reality by knowledge and light. It is still your era of abundance of resources and forever you shall continue to bask in that abundance.

THANKFUL FOR JUNE 2022

THANKFUL FOR JUNE 2022

Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
Colossians 2:7 [KJV]

Here at #WordForTodayDevotional, we devote the last day of every month as our thanksgiving day where we celebrate the grace of Yahweh that has seen us through the month. We do not take for granted the mercies of the Lord from the first of the month to today the thirtieth. It has been a torrent of the word of Love and we owe the Lord thanks. We have returned today to thank Him for the success of the month of June 2022. In case, you cannot see anything to thank Yahweh for – I know such a person will not be reading this now; let me remind you that not all that saw 1st of June 2022 are alive today to see the 30th June 2022. It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed (see Lamentations 3:22). We owe Him thanks today. Also, our attitude of thanksgiving determines, what the next month will be for us. Let us explore more on the benefits of thanksgiving.

Our text says that we should abound with thanksgiving. The Greek word translated abounding is ‘perisseuo’ meaning to superabound (in quantity or quality), be in excess, be superfluous; also (transitively) to cause to superabound or excel. You see that the English word abounding did not capture the Greek rendering. What the text is saying in essence is that we should superabound with quality and quantity thanksgiving, and allow our thanksgiving to be in excess. This is beyond theology brethren. The Lord wants us to superabound with quality thanksgiving and quantity thanksgiving. We are not just expected to thank Yahweh but to superabound with quantity thanksgiving. Thank Adonai until it is in excess. Let us think a bit. How many hours can you thank Yahweh today that will be in excess and will be of highest quality. You see that thanksgiving is not something to be mindless about.
