Bondage

Bondage in Hebrew means to “be in bondage to,” or to “be a slave of,” or to “be a servant of,” are three different ways of translating the same Hebrew (‛âbad/‛abdûth) word.

The bondage that we should be beware of, and be set free from, is of course “bondage to sin” – as we read in John 8:34-35 Yahusha answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone doing sin is a servant of sin. “And the servant does not stay in the house forever – a son stays forever.

Other words the sinner is removed from the house but the righteous stays. (Read also Roman. 6:6-23).

Are we physically in bondage? Most will tell you the people in the west are free but if you remove yourself from the brain-washing system you realize we are led by a carrot hanging in front of us which we never really get to, therefore freedom is not understand.

Let me put it another way; we were in the past been passively controlled but as we notice today it is becoming outright control, no longer done under the covers.

Control of what and why the control?

It is to sin!

They want to control us so that we stay in bondage to sin. They want to control us so we are in bondage to sin physically and spiritually.

So, what is sin?

Sin is defiantly not what the various religions of the world teaches us.

Sin is lawlessness! Those who do not walk in the Almighty’s teachings or commands.

Once you know what sin is, will you understand how Messiah came to set us free from sin.

This is what matters!

That Yahusha came to set us free from sin, to deliver us from being in bondage to sin.

He physically set those free from slavery when He walked on earth and He is spiritually setting us free from slavery today.

Once we are spiritually free, will we be able to free ourselves from physical sin and restore us back to His covenant.

I will say it again; all what matters, is to be free from being in bondage to sin.

Boast in the Almighty

YAH says, do not let the wise glory in his wisdom, and do not let the strong glory in his might.

Do not let the rich glory in his riches.

 

But let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am YAH, doing kindness, justice and righteousness in the earth; for I delight in these, declares YAH.

The glory is not about you or I, but it’s all about Him.

All Glory to Almighty Father, through His brought forth son. 

Believe is trust

Believe means to trust someone.

When you say you believe in the Almighty Elohim, bear in mind that it means much more than uncommitted believing.

Believing means to trust, to rely on, and even to prove your belief by obedience.

 

Think carefully when you say “I believe,” as this must be a complete trust in Him that you believe He is your maker, your protector and your healer.

Trust Yahuah. 

Blessed are they – Psalm 119:1-3

Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the teaching of Yahuah! Blessed are those who observe His witnesses, who seek Him with the whole heart! They also do no unrighteousness; they shall walk in His ways.

I have read these three verses 1-3 from Psalm 119 over and over again and I stand with amazement on how powerful these words are for us.

Let me share my thoughts and the awesome message I have found in these verses.

Blessed are the upright or the perfect or the undefiled in the way. Those who are undefiled are praiseworthy, who walk in the Torah or the law or instructions of Yahuah?

Not the Torah of Moses but the Torah of Yahuah.

 

Yahusha the Messiah said He is the way and the truth. So, when you walk in the way together with the instructions of Yahuah, it is possible to be undefiled, and therefore be blessed.

Blessed are they who keep or guard or observe His testimonies or His witnesses which is known as His commandments and who seek Him with the whole heart.

So, again if you look for Him with everything you have from the inmost of your heart, you will find Him and then you will keep His commandments as you will love them and be blessed many more times.

Praiseworthy are you.

They do no iniquity or no evil or wrong as they walk in His ways.

So, it is possible not to do wrong (or sin) when you walk in the way with the instructions of Yahuah.

Think about this! To be righteous in Yahuah’s eyes, not in man’s eyes but the Almighty’s eyes is to live His commandments.

Again, I must point out it is not man’s commandments but the commands of Yahuah. This is why Yahusha Messiah who is the way had to come to pay the penalty for the sins of breaking Yahuah’s teachings/Laws.

Praiseworthy are you, who are in the way, who walk in the teaching of Yahuah. 

Be aware believer

Be on the lookout, believers, for fear that a heart of unbelief make you fall away from the living Creator Elohim (Hebrew 3:12).

Let us as true believers, encourage one another daily, to not hardened our heart by the deliberate practicing of sin without repentance which will lead to a hardened heart and quench the Ruach (Holy Spirit) (Hebrew 3:13).

 

As we become partakers of Messiah in this true covenant of Yahuah, let us hold fast till the end (Hebrew 3:14).

David warns us not to harden our hearts when we hear His voice (His Spirit)as our forefathers did who saw His great wonders and still provoked Him when He led them out of slavery.

Father was grieved with them for forty years because their hearts led them astray (Psalm 95:7-10 and Hebrew 3:15-17).

For He is our Elohim, and we are the people of His pasture, and the sheep of His hand.Today, if you would hear His voice:“Do not harden your hearts as in Meribah, and as in the day of Massah in the wilderness,“When your fathers tried Me, have proved Me, though they saw My work.“For forty years I was grieved with that generation, and said, ‘They are a people who go astray in their hearts, and they do not know My ways’ – Psalm 95:7-10.

Let us learn from their mistakes and not turn away from our belief in Yahuah our Creator.

We cannot be a lukewarm believer; we need to be a light for Yahuah and walk in His path.

It is our calling as a true believer.
