โฐ 'Daily Commandment' starts today โ€” listen FREE! 1๏ธโƒฃ

The first audio from our new 'Daily Commandment' discipleship program dropped this morning! Listen for yourself here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wJLj... (and tell me if you like how it ends!)

After that check out the questions designed to help you go from hearer to doer. (They're in the episode description and I'll attach them here too.)

I had originally said that each of these audios would only be available for 24 hours but to ensure nobody falls behind we'll keep each up for a couple days.

All of these are from the forthcoming book, 'All That I Commanded You: 713 New Testament Commandments (The Way of Discipleship)'. After it's out we plan to also release a Jewish version, 'Mussar Bible: 713 Mitzvot for Tikkun Olam'.

I'm kickstarting this audio program now because I want this two-year track to begin in the fall, and because this project has only been possible thanks to our members and I wanted to give you back something special. Which is why, starting this Sunday, I'll also be sharing one introductory chapter a week with our online community.

It's not too late to join! Help me keep going with this initiative to teach the body of Messiah to do ALL that he commanded by becoming a member here: www.holylanguage.tv/checkout/subscribe/purchase

Then enroll for the Daily Commandment here: www.holylanguage.tv/forums/private-links/79492

I firmly believe that in the coming years this project will be used to change countless lives around the world, and that we'll point back to September 1, 2026 as the day it all began.

Congratulations on being a part of that birth today!

โณ You have FIVE DAYS to join the 'Daily Commandment' program! 5๏ธโƒฃ

I can't believe it's already been two weeks since I unveiled the project I've been working on for the last year and a half - a book listing the 713 commandments of the New Testament, along with the verses where they're given and related commands.

If you missed that check out the sampler here: www.holylanguage.org/download/713-New-Testament-Coโ€ฆ

I can't say how much I appreciate the encouragement and support that poured in since then - and I'm happy to report that not only have I been making steady progress, but the local situation I told you about has also been mostly defused.

The Master's commands are at the heart of our love-relationship with him. They're also our mission - nothing more, nothing less. Yet if you were to ask most believers today to list ALL that we have been commanded, how high would they get before trailing off?

That's why this project is so explosively powerful. It's also why starting this September 1 I'm going to be dropping one audio commandment a day. I'll also be sharing a weekly introductory chapter from the book with our online community. The book itself won't be published for another several months, but these beginning materials are ready to go and I'm feeling a deep urgency that now is the time.

This 'Daily Commandment' discipleship program will be two years long and each of these audios will only be available for 24 hours after they're released, so if you're going to join me - or if you know anyone who should - NOW is the time!

If you're not already a member start by joining here: holylanguage.tv/checkout/subscribe/purchase

Then enroll for the Daily Audio Commandment here: www.holylanguage.tv/forums/private-links/79492 and join our online group for the introductory chapters here:

I just put these links and instructions on our newest website, www.713commands.com/, so if you can't find this announcement later just go to 713commands.com.

And please share 713commands.com with your friends too! Our mission is to teach each other to do EVERYTHING that Yeshua commanded us - and now, with this project, that will never be easier. Just listen to the daily commandment, reflect on the questions, and grow in your love and obedience like never before.

Join me this September 1 for the journey of a lifetime - and tell the world they're invited!

๐Ÿ†• 713 New Testament Commandments ๐Ÿ“– (And please pray for me) ๐Ÿ™

Tonight begins a special timeframe on the Jewish calendar. I thought it would also be a meaningful time to tell you about the project I've been working on for the last SIXTEEN MONTHS. And honestly, I need to ask for prayer too.

You know how there are 613 commandments in the Torah? Many Christians hear that and are like, "Wow so many, good thing we only have two now!" But what if I told you there are actually ONE HUNDRED MORE commandments in the NEW TESTAMENT?

That's literally what I've been working on: a book listing everything Yeshua commanded us, along with supporting verses and groups of related imperatives. I've also written introductory chapters laying a theological foundation for the commandments, casting a vision inspired by the Jewish 'Daf Yomi' program, and exploring Hebrew secrets such as the gematria for 713.

๐Ÿ‘€ SEE THE SAMPLER

See for yourself this sampler from "All That I Commanded You: 713 New Testament Commandments (The Way of Discipleship)": www.holylanguage.org/download/713-New-Testament-Coโ€ฆ

God-willing, after this is published we'll also release a Jewish version titled "Mussar Bible: 713 Mitzvot for Tikkun Olam". And after THAT the plan is to release these as audiobooks and then begin dropping one commandment a day by podcast.

You can see what a powerful discipleship resource this will be - and how it will set believers on a trajectory towards greater support for Israel and a higher view of the Torah. There's much more I could say about all this but I want to keep this short so I'll just finish with some vulnerability.

๐Ÿ˜” PRAY FOR ME

I've been feeling really discouraged lately. The final stage is these sets of related commandments. I've been working on them for the last four months and am about a third of the way through the second pass, but it's still going to take another month or two and I'm just tired.

Compounding this, two weeks ago the management at our mobile home park falsely accused me of theft and barred my entire family from future community events. I'm dealing with the shock and anger of that, along with the fear they may be building a case to evict us, and have been forced to divert time away from this project to research my legal rights and plan my appeal.

In addition to this, YouTube just denied my third appeal so we have officially lost that source of income at a time when we really need it. And X suspended my Psalter account for no reason. And my internet was down yesterday, along with my spirits. I just feel like I've been fighting battles on every front.

So anyways, please pray for me and if you're into spiritual warefare, do that too. I wouldn't be surprised if there was an element of demonic resistance to all this - while still believing that God is sovereign over all.

๐ŸŽ‰ย CHEERS TO YOU

Pray for our finances, too. We took multiple hits this last year, especially in reaction to the Israel Platform. And because I'm not coming out with new videos until the 713 book is done, our membership has further suffered. (And cheers to all of you who HAVE kept your subscriptions active during this time!)

Speaking of which. If you look over this sampler and realize the massive impact this book/podcast could have across the Christian, Messianic, and Jewish worlds, please help me see this through. Your membership or donation will help me make it back to that point when I can start producing videos again. Use the links at the end of this message.

๐Ÿ“… PROPHETIC TIMEFRAME

Last thought - tonight is Rosh Chodesh Elul, the first day of the sixth month, and starts the forty-day countup to "the Day" of Yom Kippur. It's actually my birthday on the ancient Hebrew calendar, but more importantly, it's a season of awakening. Starting tomorrow morning, the shofar will be blown daily and Jewish people around the world will do everything they can to get right with each other and with God before the looming "Days of Awe".

Obviously all that is prophetic and is the historical timeframe we are in right now. The Master is coming back for a bride who loves him AND keeps his commandments. I have experienced the 713 project as a divine commission, and I believe that it will be used mightily to prepare the body of Christ for the imminent return of her Jewish Messiah and bridegroom.

Thank you for being a part of that with me. And if you feel like sharing this and inviting the world to join us...you should!

๐ŸŽ I want to give YOU a present for my birthday tomorrow ๐Ÿฅณ

I'm turning 45 tomorrow! And to celebrate, I wanted to give you a gift - something that has brought new feeling and passion to my soul.

For the last several months, whenever I've come out with a new lesson, I then used AI to turn it into music. I know, we all have mixed feelings about AI! But hear me out.

Every one of these songs has hit me so deeply that it brought tears to my eyes - that was how I knew it was good. (And ask my family, I don't tear up easy!)

These two playlists are from courses I'm teaching through the Mussar Center. Mussar is the Hebrew word for discipline and is basically the lost art of becoming Christlike...or should I say, Messiahlike?

Listen here, and happy birthday to me!

MUSSAR PRACTICES: www.youtube.com/playlist?list... (from this course: www.mussar.tv/practices)

HERO'S JOURNEY: www.youtube.com/playlist?list... (from this course: www.mussar.tv/journey)

If these songs speak to you and you'd like to join me on the Mussar journey, sign up for texts or emails at mussar.org/. And I'm not going to lie, the biggest gift you could give me would be to subscribe here and join me for these courses because I really am pouring my heart and soul into them: www.mussar.tv/checkout/subscribe/purchase But I won't ask for that because the main point of this message is to share something with YOU that has become truly meaningful to my heart during this last year of my life.

Thanks for celebrating with me!

P.S. You may also be wondering, Mussar Center? What happened to Holy Language Institute? I only teach Mussar on Fridays; for HLI I've been working fulltime for over a year now on a book listing the 713 commandments of the New Testament - which is finally almost ready!

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Stand with Israel TONIGHT ๐ŸŒ˜

The ninth day of the fifth month on the Jewish calendar, called Tisha B'Av, starts this evening.

Jews around the world will be fasting, recalling the tragedies that befell Israel during this time, reading the book of Lamentations, and crying out to God.

But it's also a time of hope! God says in Zechariah 8:19 that in the future this time of mourning will become a day of joy.

In the meantime, Tisha B'Av is an opportunity to stand in solidarity with Israel and intercede on behalf of the Jewish people.

Want to be a part of that, but aren't sure exactly what to do?

The God of Abraham Hymnal is history's first Messianic Zionist hymnbook and has three chapters dedicated to this day with songs themed to lamentation, intercession, and hope for Israel. And the BEST part is that it's beginner-friendly! Along with print and ebook formats it's also available as YouTube shorts so you can just play the melody on repeat and sing along to the lyrics in the video description.

Same goes for the Son of David Psalter, which also has a special chapter showing the Psalms that Yeshua would have sung on the Ninth of Av with his family and disciples.

Get your copy of the hymnbook here www.ourhymnal.com/ and the psalmbook here www.ourpsalter.com/ (or make your way to the YouTube shorts through the Melodies pages!)

I hope you'll take some time to sing, or even just pray, these psalms and hymns with your family, fellowship, or even just by yourself, this Tisha B'Av.

And as a Jewish person, I thank you for your love and support. Yeshua is the King of the Jews, and what a joy and an honour to stand with his nation on this solemn occasion.

On a personal note, I've been immersed for months now in the final stages of a book listing the 713 commandments of the New Testament. It's grueling work, but will be so worth it. In the meantime, thank you for supporting our work - I couldn't be doing this without you.

Most Messianic congregations are weak in these six critical areas: Hebrew fluency and Israel advocacy, outreach and discipleship, equipping men to lead their families, and training young leaders.

That's why I started the Messianic Leadership Center at www.messianicleaders.com, and it's ALSO why we're now sponsoring Messianic and Christian leaders to study with us FREE!

If you ARE in ministry, learn more and apply here: forms.gle/rRnaroegXrKEAWDYA

If you're NOT in a leadership role, would you send this to at least one person who is? And if you're not already doing so I hope you'll start supporting this work financially - because we literally can't do this without you.

I really believe in the Messianic movement. And I also believe that God is calling us to the next level. I'm doing what I can to get us there, and I can't say how much I appreciate your support.

Here's to closing up those gaps and getting stronger in our weak areas!
