‘AND GOD SAID, “LET THERE BE LIGHT!” AND THERE WAS LIGHT.’
Exodus 28:1-2 records:
“Now take Aaron your brother, and his sons with him, from among the children of Israel, that he may minister to Me as priest, Aaron and Aaron’s sons: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. And you shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother, for glory and for beauty.
Ezekiel 44:15-16 records:
But the priests, the Levites, the sons of Zadok, who kept charge of My sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from Me, they shall come near Me to minister to Me; and they shall stand before Me to offer to Me the fat and the blood,” says the Lord God. “They shall enter My sanctuary, and they shall come near My table to minister to Me, and they shall keep My charge.
2 Timothy 1:8-9 records:
Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God, who has saved us and CALLED US WITH A HOLY CALLING, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began.
1 Peter 2:9-10 records:
But you are a CHOSEN GENERATION, A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, A HOLY NATION, HIS OWN SPECIAL PEOPLE, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who CALLED YOU OUT OF DARKNESS INTO HIS MARVELOUS LIGHT; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.
Today, do we truly know and understand the holy calling which our Great God and Holy Lord, Yeshua HaMashiach has on our lives?
Our dear fellow brethren in Messiah, our definition of holy is so contaminated because it is only horizontally oriented and influenced by this pagan, Messiah-hating world. Holiness is NOT just moral purity. There is so much more to it.
Our dear fellow brethren in Messiah being holy means that which is separate, set apart for the Preordained and Predestined Purposes of the One True Living Infinitely Holy God, Elohim. HaShem’s Chosen Nation, Israel was called to be a holy nation. In order to be a holy nation, the nation of Israel had to be a separate nation. Within the twelve tribes of the nation of Israel were the Levites. As the ministers of the One True Living Infinitely Holy God, theirs was a more holy calling. So, they had to be separated from the rest of the Nation of Israel. And from the Levites, the One True Living Infinitely Holy God called the KOHANIM, the priests, with a holier calling. So, the KOHANIM had to be separated from the Levites. And from the priests, Elohim called the KOHEN GADOL, the high priest with an even holier calling. So the KOHEN GADOL, the high priest had to be separated from the KOHANIM, the priests. EVERY DEGREE OF HOLINESS WAS MATCHED BY AN EQUAL DEGREE OF SEPARATION.
THAT WHICH IS HOLY MUST BE SEPARATED . . . AND THIS HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH YOU AND ME, WITH US. How? Because 1 Peter 2:9-10 records, But you are a CHOSEN GENERATION, A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, A HOLY NATION, HIS OWN SPECIAL PEOPLE, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who CALLED YOU OUT OF DARKNESS INTO HIS MARVELOUS LIGHT; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.
So if we truly belong to the One True Living Infinitely Holy God, Elohim then we are priests, His KOHANIM (Revelation 1:5-6). And every priest and holy vessel must be separated from everything else, set apart unto the One True Living Infinitely Holy God. Are we truly separated from this evil world, from our desire to accomplish things in this world unto our Great God and Holy Lord, Yeshua HaMashiach? Are we truly? Or are we just pretending? Is it all about me just using the Holy Name of the One True Living Infinitely Holy God, Elohim? Do I just want the One True Living Infinitely Holy God, Elohim to be a positive catalyst to gratify my flesh and fleshly desires?
Do I claim that I am truly Supernaturally regenerated by the Precious, Priceless, Kadosh Dam (Holy Blood) of my Great God and Holy Lord, Yeshua HaMashiach? Glory be to our Risen King Yeshua HaMashiach, that He chose you and me, chose us, even before the foundation of this world and predestined us to be redeemed unto His Preordained Paths from our sins and flesh (Romans 6:1-14; Colossians 3:1-10; Ephesians 2:10, 4:17-24).
But what have I done with regards to my Staggering Supernatural Salvation? Do I truly know what Eternal life is? Do I truly know the Precise Preordained and Predestined Paths which the One True Living Infinitely Holy God has called me unto? Or did I make up a noble purpose and now presume that such a noble act has to be of the One True Living Infinitely Holy God? What is it? What is it truly?
Genesis 1:3 records:
Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.
Genesis 17:5 records:
No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you a father of many nations.
Revelation 2:17 records:
“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows except him who receives it.”
The Hebrew text of Genesis 1:3 reads-
וַיֹּ֥אמֶר אֱלֹהִ֖ים יְהִ֣י אֹ֑ור וַֽיְהִי־אֹֽור׃
‘Vayomēr Elohim, “Y’hi Or”, vay’hi-or.’
‘And God said, “Let there be light!” And there was light.’
Did we pay heed to what the One True Living Infinitely Holy God, Elohim did? In the world, we speak of that which is. BUT THE ONE TRUE LIVING INFINITELY HOLY GOD SPEAKS OF THAT WHICH IS NOT. The One True Living Infinitely Holy God, Elohim spoke the light when it was not, AND THEN IT WAS. This is the Way of the One True Living Infinitely Holy God, Elohim..... not only with light, but with His redeemed Blood-bought bondservants as well.
There was an old man whose wife was past the age of bearing children. But the One True Living Infinitely Holy God gave him the name AVRAHAM or ABRAHAM, which in Hebrew means “FATHER OF THE MULTITUDES”. ELOHIM GAVE HIM A NAME OF THAT WHICH WAS NOT . . . AND THEN IT WAS. Abraham became the father of nations. His name was a prophecy.
Then there was the man who was rejected by his family, falsely accused, and thrown into prison. But the One True Living Infinitely Holy God, Elohim had caused him at birth to be given the name YOSEF. YOSEF means “HE SHALL INCREASE”. AND SO HE WOULD. He would increase even to become the ruler of Egypt.
And then there was the man who lived in fear of his enemies. But the One True Living Infinitely Holy God, Elohim had caused his name to be GIDDONE. The name means “HE WHO STRIKES DOWN”. He would end up a hero who against overwhelming odds struck down the enemies of Israel. Gideon. HE TOO WAS GIVEN A NAME OF THAT WHICH WAS NOT . . . AND THEN IT WAS.
And then there was a man of great passion but little stability. But the One True Living Infinitely Holy God, Elohim had given him the name KAYFAH. KAYFAH means “THE ROCK”. By the end of his life, that is exactly what Peter would become, a rock of strength.
Our dear fellow brethren in Messiah, we see ourselves as we are from the lens of this world and define ourselves by our horizontal accomplishments. BUT THE ONE TRUE LIVING INFINITELY HOLY GOD, ELOHIM SEES US NOT AS WE ARE, BUT AS HE CALLED US TO BE. The One True Living Infinitely Holy God, Elohim does NOT give us an identity based on our horizontal quests and fleshly desires and our fleshly accomplishments but based on His Precise Preordained and Predestined Paths which He has chosen for us in His Great Mercy, what we are to become as we walk daily, moment by moment in His Precise Preordained and Predestined Paths empowered by the Sanctification Ministry of the Indwelling Ruach HaKhodesh.
The secret is to receive that identity and believe it before you and I, before we see it. Live it as if it is because the One True Living Infinitely Holy God says so…. THE KING OF THE UNIVERSE, THE ONE TRUE LIVING INFINITELY HOLY GOD IN HIS GREAT MERCY HAS GIVEN YOU AND ME, US A NAME OF THAT WHICH IS NOT. LET US TRULY RECEIVE IT AND IT WILL BE. It is time to seek and truly live by our prophecy name. What is your prophecy name? Did you seek the One True Living Infinitely Holy God about it? Are you willing to go that extra-mile from this Shabbat to the next to understand and know more about your prophecy name which the One True Living Infinitely Holy God has already preordained for you as His beloved, as His redeemed Bride, as His Blood-bought bondservants? Will you please?
We claim on the Scriptural Blessing of Numbers 6:24-26 for each and every one of you, our dear fellow brethren in Messiah on this Holy Shabbat:
