Today we use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from
the 1500’s,
May 28,
2016
May -- Maia's month
Old French Mai
Old English Maius
Latin Maius "of Maia"
Latin Maius mensis "month of Maia"
Maius has always had 31 days.
Maia (meaning "the great one") is the goddess
of spring, the daughter of Faunus, an ancient
Italian deity in Classical Roman times were identified with those of the Greek
god Pan. and wife of Vulcan, the ancient Roman god
of fire and metalworking.
---------------------------------------------------
Yehovah has His own calendar
Today is the 21st day of the second month of God called Ziv / Zif,
1 Kgs. 6 [1] And it came to pass in the four hundred and
eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt,
in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the
month Zif, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of Yehovah.
זִו - ziv - brightness, (figuratively) the
month of flowers
***Make sure
you change your Judaism calendars – The 2nd month is not Iyyar as Judaism states, it is Ziv as scripture stated it.

Today’s topic:
When I think about scriptural
concepts,
“It’s all
about faith”
Just think, many people of the
God of Israel in scripture had Messiah, “in promise’
that He was to come; we now have, by faith, Messiah
himself that was promised. We believed by faith He came and by faith will
return at the end of the world.
Just think, many people of the
God of Israel in scripture had many prophesies of Messiah that needed to be
fulfilled, we now have Messiah that fulfilled all the prophesies of His first
coming
As you see, many of them had faith in Messiah as we today
have faith in Messiah
Let’s read
Heb.11
[1] Now faith
is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
[2] For by it the elders
obtained a good report.
[3] Through
faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so
that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
[4] By faith
Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he
obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it
he being dead yet speaketh.
[5] By faith
Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found,
because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this
testimony, that he pleased God.
[6] But without
faith it is impossible to please him:
for he that cometh to God must believe that He is,
and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently
seek Him.
[7] By faith
Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear,
prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the
world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
[8] By faith
Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after
receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he
went.
[9] By faith
he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling
in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
[10] For he looked for a city
which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
[11] Through
faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was
delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who
had promised.
[12] Therefore sprang there even of
one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and
as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
[13] These all
died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar
off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they
were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
[14] For they that say such things
declare plainly that they seek a country.
[15] And truly, if they had been
mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had
opportunity to have returned.
[16] But now they desire a
better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is
not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath
prepared for them a city.
[17] By faith
Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received
the promises offered up his only begotten son,
[18] Of whom it was said, That
in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
[19] Accounting that God was
able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a
figure.
[20] By faith
Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
[21] By faith
Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and
worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.
[22] By faith
Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of
Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.
[23] By faith
Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because
they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's
commandment.
[24] By faith
Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of
Pharaoh's daughter;
[25] Choosing rather to suffer
affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a
season;
[26] Esteeming the reproach of Messiah
greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
[27] By faith
he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as
seeing him who is invisible.
[28] Through
faith he kept the passover,
and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch
them.
[29] By faith
they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians
assaying to do were drowned.
[30] By faith
the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven
days.
[31] By faith
the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed
not, when she had received the spies with peace.
From the Torah, Abel to Joshua
------------------
Then through
the rest of scripture, Judges, Samuel, Kings, and the prophets
[32] And what
shall I more say? for the time would fail me to
tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae;
of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:
[33] Who
through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained
promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
[34] Quenched the violence of
fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed
valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.
[35] Women received their dead
raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:
[36] And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea,
moreover of bonds and imprisonment:
[37] They were stoned, they were
sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in
sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;[38] (Of whom the world was not
worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of
the earth.
A good report through faith
[39] And these
all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:
(still waiting) [40] God having provided some better thing for us, that they
without us should not be made perfect. (or complete)
Simply put, they had
the promise of the coming of Messiah, we have Messiah that came, and therefore it
is complete or perfect, finished.
Heb.12
[1] Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of
witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so
easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
[2] Looking unto Yeshua the author and finisher of our faith;
who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame,
and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
[3] For consider Yeshua that endured such
contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your
minds.
[4] Ye have not yet resisted unto
blood, striving against sin.
[5] And ye have forgotten the
exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children,
My son, despise not thou the chastening of the
Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:[6] For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
[7] If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the
father chasteneth not?
[8] But if ye be without chastisement,
whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
[9] Furthermore we have had fathers of
our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much
rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits,
and live?
[10] For they verily for a few days
chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be
partakers of his holiness.
[11] Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward
it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto
them which are exercised thereby.
Let’s look up the
word - chasten
יָסַר
yâsar - yaw-sar'
A
primitive root; to chastise,
literally (with blows) or figuratively (with words); hence to instruct: - bind, chasten, chastise,
correct, instruct, punish, reform, reprove, sore, teach.
מוּסָר
mûsâr - moo-sawr'
From יָסַר
Properly chastisement;
figuratively reproof, warning or instruction; also restraint:
- bond, chastening ([-eth]), chastisement, check, correction,
discipline, doctrine, instruction, rebuke.
[12] Wherefore lift up the hands which
hang down, and the feeble knees;
[13] And make straight paths for
your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out
of the way; but let it rather be healed.
[14] Follow
peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the
Lord:
[15] Looking diligently lest any man fail of
the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness
springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;
[16] Lest
there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat
sold his birthright.
[17] For ye know how that
afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he
found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.
[18] For ye are
not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with
fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
[19] And the sound of a trumpet,
and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated
that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
[20] (For they could not endure
that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it
shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:
[21] And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)
[22] But ye are come unto mount Sion,
and unto the city of the living God, the
heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
[23] To the general assembly and
church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of
all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
(people with God in heaven)
24] And to Yeshua the mediator of
the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh
better things than that of Abel.
[25] See that ye refuse not him that speaketh.
For if they escaped
not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from
him that speaketh from heaven
[26] Whose voice then shook the earth:
but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
[27] And this
word, Yet once more, signifieth
the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that
those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
[28] Wherefore we receiving a kingdom
which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably
with reverence and godly fear:
[29] For our God is a consuming fire.

In closing:
Have Faith
Watch out for Physical and Spiritual Giants on this 7 week
journey as we go to meet the God of Israel.
Are you ready for the Giants in your life?
We read about physical giants in scripture, watch out for the spiritual giants that
will come, and they will come.
These
giants maybe: false brothers or sisters, strangers,
friends, relatives, situations that may arise, troubles at work, school, financial
matters, sickness, jail; just anything to discourage you from serving God of Israel, watch!
Don't let anyone or anything discourage you from
serving the God of Israel
Have Faith in the God of Israel
They had faith
to tarry and they received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost
