Let’s Pray

My ministry is to bring up topics in the Bible that have never been
discussed, mentioned or deleted in your life that God wants you to know.
-------------
Today we use the
Gregorian calendar (Pope Gregory, 1500's) – August
21, 2010
--------------
We
restore the calendar of God
We are now in the
10th day of the 6th month of God
Change
your Judaism calendars; Judaism is wrong again by calling the 6th month
Elul, no scripture to back that up.

You can hear them on my site at http://oneinmessiah.net/av.htm
You can see them on my site at http://oneinmessiah.net/videoFiles.htm
I would love to come and give a talk
at your congregation, school or home on the Jewish / Hebrew roots of your faith
from the Scriptures, not Judaism.

I explain the Sabbath, the 7th day,
each week
This is how simple it is:
Exod. 20
[8] Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
[9] Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
[10] But the seventh day
is the sabbath of Yehovah thy God:
in it thou shalt
not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy
daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger
that is within thy gates:
[11]
For in six days Yehovah made heaven and earth, the
sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Yehovah blessed the sabbath
day, and hallowed it.
------------
Deut. 5
[12] Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as Yehovah thy God hath commanded thee.
[13] Six days thou shalt labour,
and do all thy work:
[14] But the seventh day is the sabbath of Yehovah thy God: in it thou shalt
not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor
thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy
maidservant may rest as well as thou.
[15]
And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of
Egypt, and that Yehovah thy God brought thee out
thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore Yehovah thy God commanded
thee to keep the sabbath day.
------------
Lev. 23
[3] Six
days shall work be done:
but
the seventh day is the Sabbath of rest, an holy convocation;
ye shall do no work therein:
it is the Sabbath of Yehovah in all your dwellings.
--------
Isa. 58 [13] If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy
pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath
a delight, the holy of Yehovah, honourable; and shalt honour him,
1 - not doing thine
own ways,
2 - nor finding thine
own pleasure,
3 - nor speaking thine
own words:
[14] Then shalt thou delight thyself in Yehovah;
and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee
with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the
mouth of Yehovah hath spoken it.
------------------------
Buying and selling is evil on the
Sabbath
Neh. 13 [16] There dwelt men of Tyre also therein, which brought fish, and all manner of
ware, and sold on the Sabbath unto the
children of Judah, and in Jerusalem.
[17]
Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said unto them, what evil thing is this that ye do, and profane the Sabbath
day?
------------------------
We read
from law and the prophets every Sabbath like they did in the Book of Acts
60 times in the Gospels
and letters it uses the word Sabbath!
--------------------
Today's Topic - TIME
TIME runs all things in your life
How do you "SPEND" your TIME? We say it all the time
Spend is a interesting word meaning:
to pay out, disburse, or expend; dispose of, to pass (time) in a
particular manner, place, with, to use up, consume, or exhaust
We only have so much time here
We have created many devices to keep and measure
time.
Many movies have been written about time, the
time machine and time travel.
Countless songs and books have been written in
many fashions about time.
There are countless sayings about time - Time
waits for no one! Time heals all things, Time marches on, Give it time, Times
up, you get the picture, I digress...
--------------------------------------------------------------
God has His own TIME and TIMES for
all things

Gen. 8 [22] While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and
summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease
Deut. 16 [16] Three times in a year shall
all thy males appear before the YEHOVAH thy God in the place which he shall
choose; in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the
feast of tabernacles: and they shall not appear before the YEHOVAH empty
Deut. 18 [10] There shall not be found among you
any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass
through the fire, or that useth divination, or an
observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch,
[11]
Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a
necromancer.
[12] For all that do these things are an abomination
unto the YEHOVAH: and because of these abominations the YEHOVAH thy God doth
drive them out from before thee.
[13] Thou shalt be perfect with the YEHOVAH
thy God.
[14] For these nations, which thou shalt
possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as
for thee, the YEHOVAH thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.
Job 7 [1] Is there not
an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days
also like the days of an hireling?
---------------
The Book of Psalms is filled with verses about time
Here are a few:
[9] The YEHOVAH
also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
[5] For in the
time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his
tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.
[15] My times
are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that
persecute me.
[1] I will bless
the YEHOVAH at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
[19] They shall not
be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be
satisfied.
[39] But the
salvation of the righteous is of the YEHOVAH: he is their strength in the
time of trouble.
[1] Blessed is he
that considereth the poor: the YEHOVAH will deliver
him in time of trouble.
[8] Trust in him at
all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge
for us. Selah.
[13] But as for me,
my prayer is unto thee, O YEHOVAH, in an acceptable time: O God, in the
multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy
salvation.
[9] Cast me not off
in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.
[38] But he, being
full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and destroyed them not: yea, many a
time turned he his anger away, and did not stir up
all his wrath.
[3] Blessed are
they that keep judgment, and he that doeth righteousness at all times.
[2] Blessed be the name of the YEHOVAH from this time
forth and for evermore.
[18] But we will
bless the YEHOVAH from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the YEHOVAH.
[3] Blow up the
trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day
------------------------------
In the early 1970's, a song was written about this, remember?
Ecc. 3
[1] To every
thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
[2]
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up
that which is planted;
[3] A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time
to build up;
[4] A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to
dance;
[5] A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a
time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
[6] A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to
cast away;
[7] A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a
time to speak;
[8] A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of
peace.
-----------------
/cgi/k/kjv/kjv-idx?type=DIV2&byte=2553361Ecc. 3
[17] I said in mine heart, God shall judge
the righteous and the wicked: for there is a
time there for every purpose and for every work.
Ecc. 7
[17] Be not over much wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldest
thou die before thy time?
Ecc. 8
[5] Whoso keepeth
the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and
judgment.
[6] Because to every purpose there is time and judgment, therefore the
misery of man is great upon him.
[7]
For he knoweth not that which shall be: for who can
tell him when it shall be?
[8] There is no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the
spirit; neither hath he power in the day of death: and there is no discharge in
that war; neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it.
Ecc. 9
[11] I returned, and saw under the sun,
that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet
bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but
time and chance happeneth to them all.
[12] For man
also knoweth not his time: as the fishes
that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare;
so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth suddenly upon them.
-------------
The Book of Daniel has many verses pertaining to time and times
Dan. 12 [1] And at
that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be
a time of trouble, such as never was
since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time
thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the
book.
----------------------------
The Gospels and letters have many verses
about time and times
Here are a few of them:
Matt.2
[1]
Now when Yeshua was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in
the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to
Jerusalem,
[2] Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to
worship him.
[3] When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all
Jerusalem with him.
[4] And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the
people together, he demanded of them where Messiah should be born.
[5] And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is
written by the prophet,
[6] And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda,
art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out
of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.
[7] Then Herod, when he had privily called the
wise men, inquired of them diligently what time
the star appeared.
[8] And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently
for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I
may come and worship him also.
[9] When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star,
which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where
the young child was.
[10] When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
[11] And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child
with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had
opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense,
and myrrh.
[12] And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to
Herod, they departed into their own country another way.
[13] And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Yehovah appeareth to Joseph in a
dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into
Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for
Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.
[14] When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and
departed into Egypt:
[15] And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled
which was spoken of the Yehovah by the prophet,
saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.
[16] Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was
exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in
Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had
diligently inquired of the wise men.
[29] And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Yeshua,
thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?
[21] For then shall be great tribulation,
such as was not since the beginning of the world to this
time, no, nor ever shall be.
[15] And saying, The time
is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and
believe the gospel.
[19] For in those days shall be
affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God
created unto this time, neither shall
be.
[33] Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.
[6] When they therefore were come
together, they asked of him, saying, Yehovah, wilt
thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
[7] And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the
times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
[8]
But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye
shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in
Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
[19] Repent ye therefore, and be
converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the
presence of the Yehovah;
[20]
And he shall send Yeshua Messiah, which before was
preached unto you:
[21]
Whom the heaven must receive until the times of
restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all
his holy prophets since the world began.
[6] For when we were yet without strength, in due time Messiah died for the ungodly.
[18] For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be
compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
[5] Even so then at this present time
also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
[11] And that,
knowing the time, that now it is high
time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than
when we believed.
[14]
Wherefore he saith, Awake
thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Messiah
shall give thee light.
[15] See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
[16] Redeeming the time,
because the days are evil.
[17] Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Yehovah is.
[5] Walk in wisdom toward them that are
without, redeeming the time.
1Thes.5
[1]
But of the times and the seasons,
brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
[2] For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Yehovah so cometh as a thief in the night.
[3] For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction
cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not
escape.
2Thes.2
[1]
Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Yehovah
Yeshua Messiah, and by our gathering together unto
him,
[2] That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by
spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Messiah is at
hand.
[3] Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come,
except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the
son of perdition;
[4] Who opposeth and exalteth
himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing
himself that he is God.
[5] Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with
you, I told you these things?
[6] And now ye know what withholdeth that he
might be revealed in his time.
[7] For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
[8] And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Yehovah
shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the
brightness of his coming:
[9] Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power
and signs and lying wonders,
[10] And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish;
because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
[11] And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they
should believe a lie:
[12] That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had
pleasure in unrighteousness.
2Tim.4
[1]
I charge thee therefore before God, and the Yehovah Yeshua Messiah, who shall judge the quick and the dead at
his appearing and his kingdom;
[2] Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove,
rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
[3] For the time will come when
they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap
to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
[4] And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be
turned unto fables.
1Pet.4
[17]
For the time is come that judgment
must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end
be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
[18] And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and
the sinner appear?
[18] Little children, it is the last
time: and as ye have heard that antiMessiah
shall come, even now are there many antiMessiahs;
whereby we know that it is the last time.
[18] How that they told you there should
be mockers in the last time, who
should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
[3] Blessed is he that readeth,
and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are
written therein: for the time is at hand.
Rev.10
[1]
And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and
a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet
as pillars of fire:
[2] And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot
upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth,
[3] And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth:
and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.
[4] And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to
write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things
which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not.
[5] And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth
lifted up his hand to heaven,
[6] And sware by him that liveth
for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things
that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea,
and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:
[7] But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin
to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his
servants the prophets.
[18] And the nations were angry, and thy
wrath is come, and the time of the dead,
that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest
give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that
fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy
them which destroy the earth
[12] Therefore rejoice,
ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters
of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come
down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth
that he hath but a short time.
[13]
And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the
woman which brought forth the man child.
[14] And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle,
that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished
for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
[15] And another angel came out of the
temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy
sickle, and reap: for
the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is
ripe.
[10] And he saith
unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.
-------------------------------
In closing:
So how do you “spend” your time?
You know you only have so much!
Here
is a good lesson to end with today:
[15] And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of
covetousness:
for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
[16] And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
[17] And he thought within himself, saying, What shall
I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
[18] And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my
barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
[19] And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid
up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and
be merry.
[20] But God said unto him, Thou fool, this
night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be,
which thou hast provided?
[21] So is he that layeth up treasure for himself,
and is not rich toward God.
Be rich toward God in your “time” here on earth
