Things I learned at Sukkot
It
was my prayer to not come home the same.
And
on the first day Olivia was there with me - we sat in our tent eating... and we
prayed... that YHUH change us - so that none of us go home the same as we
came.
We
had the best camping spot in the whole place...
beside the river where Mikvah took place... There were some rapids
there.. and so we heard the water constantly when we were at camp. Especially at night.
It
was very cold and mostly rained... 30-60
degrees in the rain... and that cold wet didn’t even matter! - Especially after we learned to dress to
sleep in it! :)
~
I
met an 81 year old woman who walked into the icy waters of the mountain... to
be mikvahed for the fist time in the true name.
I
want to be 81 and older like Margie...
not stuck in my old understanding but walking in more and more Truth of
YHUH!
I
felt those icy waters clean me up.

3
times to go before YHUH
Sh’mot
(Exodus) 34:18-24
p 75
Three
times going up before YHUH to the temple.
What
is this?
This
is stepping out of the normal...
Stepping
out of the world we live in and going and gathering with like minded believers
... to be refilled and refreshed to be
able to go back out - “home” - into the
world.
Many
many times... I heard so many say - “it is so hard to leave”.
It
wasn’t because we didn’t miss families at home (although many had most if not
all of their family there)...
It
was being safe and hidden ... it was not being affronted by “busy” and “overwhelm” and more importantly -
the pagan mess in the world.
And
incredible to be with like minded people...
people
who walk in the Melchizedek Priesthood and it’s Torah...
and
people who don’t eat GMOs and poisoned food,
and people who know the Word says the earth is NOT a globe.... and who
understand the MESS in history, and science, and Scripture... and who choose to
walk in EMET - to be “in the world and not of the world!”
There
was so much more peace...
**
Counselor...
In
the first teaching Matthew did - he talked about counseling... and i want to clarify some things for us.
He
started out by teaching “how to live in the excellency of YHUH’s power.”
If
you spend your life focused on sin (like the religion we came out of)
you
only are doing 1/3 of what we are supposed to be doing.
3
things He wants to do:
1. Deliver us from sin (milk of the Word - the flesh)
2. Deliver us from our natural selves (“the good person” - the soul)
3. Deliver us from the evil, wicked
principalities in the supernatural realm of evil (the spirit)
He
also talked a lot about “study” / “learning” is soulish.
Knowledge
is NOT communion with YHUH.
Romans
7:14 p
843 RSTNE
“For we know that the Torah is full of
the Ruach...but I am of the flesh, sold under sin”
KJV
“For we know that the “law” is
spiritual... but I am carnal, sold under sin.”
“Torah”
/“the law” = G3551 Nomos
anything established,
anything received by usage, a custom, a law, a command of any law
whatsoever - a law or rule producing a
state approved of God by the observance of which is approved of God
-a precept or injunction
- the rule of action prescribed by reason
- of the
Mosaic law, and referring, acc. to the context. either to the volume of the law
or to its contents
and
“Ruach”
/ “Spiritual” = G 4152 “Pneumatikos”
1
belonging to a spirit, or a being higher than man but inferior
to God
2
belonging to the Divine Spirit
1
of God the Holy Spirit
2
one who is filled with and governed by the Spirit of God
3
pertaining to the wind or breath; windy, exposed to the wind,
blowing
When
we just study and focus on all that we “know”... this is of the soul... the
mind, will and emotions - where personality reside
But
what if we... study .....and that study
takes us into greater understanding of YHUH?
!!!!
YHUH
told me
“My
people do not know who they are because they don’t understand who I am. Teach them who I am.”
So
as we understand more truth - we know this... we become more in awe of YHUH...
and all that He has done for us.. and His Word....
and
it is an incredible / awe- inspired place to worship.
There
was much discussion in our study and sharing times... about
HOW
DO WE LIVE MORE IN THE SPIRIT THAN THE SOUL?
And I said... we make
I
Thessalonians 5:17 p 897 in our life.
“Make
tefillah without ceasing.”
“Pray
without ceasing.”
Because
if I am always praying - I am always in communication with YHUH.
That
means everything I see, everything I hear etc... all goes to YHUH before I
RESPOND.....
So
it is my spirit combined with the Ruach HaKodesh - that responds....
I
don’t react out of my flesh or soul... what I think.
Wow...
do we all have a lot to learn in this!
The
main functions of our spirit:
1. Conscious - our knowing what is of YHUH
2. Intuition (prophecy - that knowing)
3. Communion with
YHUH (worship/ communication)
An
un-regenerated spirit (Not alive in Yah) works with the soul in the world.. .
this is how the world works.
The spirit is subject to the soul -
with depression, fear, anxiety, oppression, hopelessness and lonely.
This happens if we become consumed
with study of the end of days...and we get in fear.
What
is the spirit ?
“the
part of us that hears and communicates with YHUH.”
Mishle
(Proverbs) 20:27 p. 559
“The
ruach of man is the lamp or YHUH, searching all the inward parts of the belly.”
The
functions of the soul:
1. Will / violation
2. Mind / thought - intellectual prowess
3. Emotion - what I like and don’t like.. what I want to do and don’t want to do.
-
“The
souls is man’s selfishness”
-
“Without
enacting government of the spirit - the soul is a tyrant.”
Ezrah
4:5 p. 610 COUNSELING
“And
hired counselors against them, to frustrate their purpose, all the days of
Koresh melech of Persia, even until the reign of Daryawesh melech of Persia.”
“Counseling
stops the building of the ministry”
I
did a word study on counseling.
There
are two types in Torah
Counseling
that is of YHUH
and
counseling
that is of the pagan world or hasatan.
In
Ezrah 4:5 - the counseling that was the distraction was from the world.
He
did make it a point to say that he is not saying don’t do counseling ... but
that you must give tools so they can heal.
Clearly
this is NOT how the WORLD counsels!
The
world doesn’t give tools because they don’t believe in healing.
Because
only Yah heals!

“But
he forsook the counsel that the elderly men gave him, and took the counsel with
the young men that were brought up with him, that stood before him.”

We
can get “Oppressed by our soul because we spend too much time studying and not
enough time in the spirit!”
“It
is good to study but we have to understand the spirit - soul - body and focus
on the spirit.”
“If
we are pursuing knowledge we have to have a heavy spiritual work out!”
“Only
when our spirits are regenerated / we are born again - can Ruach HaKodesh find
a place with in us = spiritual reality!
**
We
are at war and we can not be passive - we have to fight!
We
can not give up ground by trying to be “nice” or trying to “keep the peace” -
and let them do paganism in our homes!
If
the spirit of man is the fortress... the will is the moat and the open field is
the mind - where the battle is fought.
2 Corin 10:3-5 p 870
“For
though we are walking in the world (flesh), we do not war according to the
world (flesh).
4
For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through our Alohiym
to the pulling down of strong holds;
5
Casting down imaginations and every high human matter that exalts itself
against the da’at of YHUH, taking captive every thought to be obedient to
Moshiach.”
The
god of this world blinds the minds.
Our
hope is to transform our mind by renewing it!
“blazes”
= Matthew’s word for the “ideas” / “thoughts” that just randomly jump in that
we have beaten ourselves up for over and over.... because we couldn’t tell the
difference between our thinking and the junk the enemy puts in our minds!
Blazes
are not my thoughts! - they are obscene, manic, oppressive and suicidal.
Hasatan
is able to impart ideas and steal from man’s brains.
The
only thing that stops it is my will!
I
have to understand this! and not receive the junk of the enemy as mine!!
6
ways the battle happens in open field
/the mind
or
another way to say it
6
ways the mind is given over to hasatan:
1. Un- renewed mind - We have to clean out
the old thoughts and music, etc
2. Improper mind - we have to
clean out the old sin in our hearts
3. Misunderstanding
Yah’s Truth
-We must lay down our religion and the
traditions of man because they are seeds that give ground to the enemy and
destroy our future generations!
-
we
can not justify or tolerate paganism in our homes!
-
We
war against principalities - not people!
4.
Accepting suggestions... “you look
sick”
making statements like “my disease”...
“shame on you” - shame is sexual
immorality.
-
words
mean things!!
-
speak
life and not death!
5.
Blank mind -
eastern religion / new age - wants you
to have an empty mind
(although i think the west does to -
look at the zombie sheeple who watch tv and don’t think for themselves)
and if you question whether or not they
think for themselves... just look at how willing they are to put neurotoxins,
heavy metals, cancer, and animal DNA in - not just their bodies but the bodies
of their children!
We must exercise the mind - meditate
ON the WORD!
Blank brains lead to a passive will.
6.
Passive Mind
- this is zombie sheeple
=waiting for an outside force to act
on our mind.
In an “affective state”
Have to be in a CAUSE State... and
never on defense!
Self defense is bad because it is in
an affective state and nobody in an affective state ever wins.
The battle is never won in an
affective state!
The battle can only be won from a
cause state!
The WORD is a WEAPON that puts me in a
CAUSE STATE!
We
are rebuidling... we are making sense out of the ONE NEW MAN....
and
there is going to be warfare...
WE have to be in the Spirit to be able to be in
a CAUSE state to go after it!
WE
have to go after it and engage in warfare!
There
is no building without warfare...
Think
of that ... how it relates to:
to understanding Melchi - zedok
The One
New Man
How it
relates to just in each of us as we
“come
out of her my people”!!!
Matthew
said ...
We
have the building anointing
We
are keeping Sukkot!!
The
Truth has been submerged for over 2,000 years and our generation has found the ax!
We
are in a powerful spiritual place because we have recovered the ax!
The ax is the cutting edge of the Covenant of Promise!
It
is able to divide the bone and the marrow
2
Kings 6: 1-7
p 277
The
cutting edge anointing has been in the water for 2k years... submerged in
paganism...
but
we have regained the ax head...
The axe is the covenant building anointing that allows the Ruach HaKodesh - to
ascend to her rightful high position.
It
has been recovered through the anointing of Elisha on this assembly
You
guys have the DOUBLE PORTION for such a time as this!
This
is Book of Covenant revelation!
We
have to have spirit- soul - body in order.
And
we have to be aware that python spirit - a restrictor always comes after
revelation has been poured out
Pray
that you don’t become prey!
Python
will operate to squeeze out Holy Spirit!
You
have to take the battle to the forefront... you have to engage!
You
can not be passive...
The
battle is in the open field of the mind...
How
will we fight?
**
Love
and Fear
**
the 8th Great Day...
It’s
about perspective...
From
Joshua to Ezra and Nehemiah - when Tzadok was the righteous line... King Daniel and King Solomon - they didn’t
keep Sukkot!
Ezra
and Nehemiah kept the first Sukkot in over 800 years!
WE
ARE THE GENERATION KEEPING SUKKOT!
**
=
heavenly audacity rushing into battle without considering the
possibilities... A confidence of victory
before war. We are not mere men and
women.
“Be
strong and of good courage”
Chazak
Amatz!!
We
are out for the glory of Yah.
Be
not afraid for YHUH is with you.
The ax has been found... and we have it!

lives. His name is Yahusha” - our Melchi
