שַׁבָּת שָׁלוֹם

--------------------------------------------

 

Today we use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from the 1500’s

 

Today is August 4, 2018 - in the 21 Century

 

August -- Augustus Caesar's month

Latin Augustus "Augustus"
Latin Augustus mensis "month of Augustus"
Latin sextilis mensis "sixth month"

Sextilis had 30 days, until Numa when it had 29 days, until Julius when it became 31 days long.

Augustus Caesar clarified and completed the calendar reform of Julius Caesar. In the process, he also renamed this month after himself.

 

We acknowledge Yehovah’s calendar

 

We are now in the 5th month, day 21 – This month has no scriptural name.

It is not Av as Judaism and some Messianics say it is.

Today’s Topic

Having Joy, being merry in God is very important

Some Proverbs

Pss.5 [11] But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

Prov.17 [22] A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones

Prov.12 [20] Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counselors of peace is joy.

Prov.15 [23] A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it!

Prov.17 [21] He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow: and the father of a fool hath no joy.

Prov.21 [15] It is joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.

Prov.23 [24] The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him.

 

Make sure your joy in God is not withered away

Joel.1 [12] Make sure your - vine is (not) dried up, and the fig tree (is not) languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are (not) withered:

(Make sure your :) because joy is withered away from the sons of men.

 

The “joy of Yehovah is your strength

Neh.8 [1] And all the people gathered themselves together as one man into the street that was before the water gate; and they spake unto Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses, which Yehovah had commanded to Israel.

[2] And Ezra the priest brought the law before the congregation both of men and women, and all that could hear with understanding, upon the first day of the seventh month. (ha Ethanim)

[3] And he read therein before the street that was before the water gate from the morning until midday, before the men and the women, and those that could understand; and the ears of all the people were attentive unto the book of the law.

[4] And Ezra the scribe stood upon a pulpit of wood, which they had made for the purpose; and beside him stood Mattithiah, and Shema, and Anaiah, and Urijah, and Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, on his right hand; and on his left hand, Pedaiah, and Mishael, and Malchiah, and Hashum, and Hashbadana, Zechariah, and Meshullam.

[5] And Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people; (for he was above all the people;) and when he opened it, all the people stood up:

[6] And Ezra blessed Yehovah, the great God. And all the people answered, Amen, Amen, with lifting up their hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped Yehovah with their faces to the ground.

[7] Also Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, caused the people to understand the law: and the people stood in their place.

[8] So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading.

[9] And Nehemiah, which is the Tirshatha, and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites that taught the people, said unto all the people, This day is holy unto Yehovah your God; mourn not, nor weep. For all the people wept, when they heard the words of the law.

[10] Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry;

for the joy of Yehovah is your strength.

[11] So the Levites stilled all the people, saying, Hold your peace, for the day is holy; neither be ye grieved.

[12] And all the people went their way to eat, and to drink, and to send portions, and to make great mirth, because they had understood the words that were declared unto them.

[13] And on the second day were gathered together the chief of the fathers of all the people, the priests, and the Levites, unto Ezra the scribe, even to understand the words of the law.

Some Psalms

Pss.16 [11] Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

Pss.21 [1] The king shall joy in thy strength, Yehovah; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!

Pss.27 [6] And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy;

I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto Yehovah.

Pss.30 [5] For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

Pss.32 [11] Be glad in Yehovah, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.

Pss.35 [9]my soul shall be joyful in Yehovah: it shall rejoice in his salvation.

[27] Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let Yehovah be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.

Pss.42 [4] When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.

Pss.43 [4] Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.

Pss.48 [2] Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.

Pss.51[7] Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

[8] Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.

[9] Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.

[10] Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

[11] Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

[12] Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

[13] Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.

 

Pss.63 [5] My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:

Pss.65 [13] The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.

Pss.66 [1] Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands:

Pss.67 [4] O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Selah.

Pss.81 [1] Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.

Pss.89 [15] Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, Yehovah, in the light of thy countenance.

Pss.95 [1] O come, let us sing unto Yehovah: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.[2] Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.

Pss.98

[1] O sing unto Yehovah a new song; for he hath done marvellous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.

[2] Yehovah hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen.

[3] He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

[4] Make a joyful noise unto Yehovah, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.

[5] Sing unto Yehovah with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm.

[6] With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before Yehovah, the King.

[7] Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

[8] Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together

[9] Before Yehovah; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.

 

Pss.100 [1] Make a joyful noise unto Yehovah, all ye lands.

[2] Serve Yehovah with gladness: come before his presence with singing.

[3] Know ye that Yehovah he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

[4] Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

[5] For Yehovah is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

 

Pss.105 [43] And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness:

Pss.126 [5] They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

Pss.132 [9] Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy.

[16] I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

Pss.149 [2] Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

[5] Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.

 

A portion of a Gospel

Matt.25

[14] For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.
[15] And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

[16] Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.

[17] And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.
[18] But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.

[19] After a long time the Lord  of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.

[20] And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.

[21] His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

[22] He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.

[23] His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

[24] Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:
[25] And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.
[26] His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:
[27] Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
[28] Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.
[29] For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

[30] And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

The Son of man, the King

[31] When the Son of man shall come in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then shall He sit upon the throne of His glory:

[32] And before Him shall be gathered all nations: and He shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:

[33] And He shall set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.

[34] Then shall the King say unto them on His right hand, Come, ye blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

[35] For I was an hungred, and ye gave Me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave Me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took Me in:
[36] Naked, and ye clothed Me: I was sick, and ye visited Me: I was in prison, and ye came unto Me.
[37] Then shall the righteous answer Him, saying, Lord, when saw we Thee an hungred, and fed Thee? or thirsty, and gave Thee drink?
[38] When saw we Thee a stranger, and took Thee in? or naked, and clothed Thee?
[39] Or when saw we Thee sick, or in prison, and came unto Thee?

[40] And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto Me.

[41] Then

 shall He say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from Me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
[42] For I was an hungred, and ye gave Me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave Me no drink:
[43] I was a stranger, and ye took Me not in: naked, and ye clothed Me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited Me not.

[44] Then shall they also answer Him, saying, Lord, when saw we Thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto Thee?

[45] Then shall He answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to Me.

[46] And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

 

In closing:

Job said:

Job.13 [15] Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him

 

Ecc.9 [7] Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.

[8] Let thy garments be always white; and let thy head lack no ointment.

[9] Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy portion in this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun.

[10] Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might;

for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.

[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.

 

[13] This wisdom have I seen also under the sun, and it seemed great unto me:

[14] There was a little city, and few men within it; and there came a great king against it, and besieged it, and built great bulwarks against it:

[15] Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered that same poor man.

[16] Then said I, Wisdom is better than strength: nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.

[17] The words of wise men are heard in quiet more than the cry of him that ruleth among fools.

[18] Wisdom is better than weapons of war:

 but one sinner destroyeth much good.

 

Rejoice in Yehovah, be glad in His Salvation, Yeshua
