We are now in the third month of God called Sivan, 

Esther 8:9, day 20

 

Today’s topic:

Be a good vessel of God

We are commanded by God:

 

Deut.4

[2] You shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall you diminish ought from it, that you may keep the commandments of Yehovah your God which I command you.

 

Deut.12

[32] What thing so ever I command you, observe to do it: you shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.

 

Prov.30

[6] Add not unto His words, lest He reprove you, and you be found a liar.

 

We are supposed to be a new creature in God

Eph.4

[22] That you put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; 

[23] And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

[24] And that you put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

 

2 Cor.5

[17] Therefore if any man or woman be in Messiah, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

Amos 3 

[3] Can two walk together, except they be agreed?

 

Paul said:

every wind of doctrine

Eph.4

[14] … be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive…

 

John 9 

[31] Now we know that God hears not sinners:

but if any man be a worshipper of God, and does his will, him he hears.

 

Tit.1

[10] For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, especially they of the circumcision: Jews that rejected the Messiah

[11] Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake.

 

[14] Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.

[15] Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.

[16] They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.

 

1 Tim.1

[1] Paul, an apostle of Yeshua the Messiah by the commandment of God our Savior, and Lord Yeshua the Messiah, which is our hope; 

[2] Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Yeshua the Messiah our Lord.

[3] As I besought you to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia that you might charge some that they teach no other doctrine, 

[4] Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.

[5] Now the end (goal) of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:

[6] From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;

 

Jangling:

ματαιολογα mataiologia {mat-ah-yol-og-ee'-ah}

Meaning:  1) vain talking, empty talk

 

Back to:

1 Tim.1:

[7] Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.

[8] But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;

[9] Knowing this that the law (the judgments) is not made for a righteous man,

but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

[10] For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for men stealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine…

 

Heb.13 

[9] Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines.

 

1 Tim. 4 

[1] Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

[2] Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

[7] But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.

 

2 Tim. 4

[1] I charge you therefore before God, and the Lord Yeshua the 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.

 

Rom.16

[17] Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which you have learned; and avoid them.

[18] For they that are such serve not our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.

 

Be aware of:

2 Cor. 11  

[26] …false brothers and sisters

 

Gal. 2

[4] And that because of false brethren unawares brought in…

 

2 Cor. 11

[13] … false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Messiah

[14] And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

[15] Therefore it is no great thing if his, Satan’s ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

 

Think of all the religions that don’t believe God was manifested in the flesh…

 

Pail said:

1Tim. 3

[16] And without controversy great is the mystery of godlinessGod was manifest in the flesh…

 

John 1

[1] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

[14] And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

 

2 John 1

[7] For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Yeshua the Messiah is come in the flesh (of Israel). 

This is a deceiver and an anti-Messiah.

[8] Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.

[9] Whosoever transgresses, and abides not in the doctrine of Messiah, had not God.

He that abides in the doctrine of Messiah, he hath both the Father and the Son.

[10] If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:

[11] For he that bids him God speed is partaker of his evil

 

Vessels of God

Acts 9

[1] And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest

[2] And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.

[3] And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:

[4] And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

[5] And he said, Who are you, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Yeshua whom thou persecute:

it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

[6] And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?

And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.

[7] And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.

[8] And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.

[9] And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink.

[10] And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord.

[11] And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold he prays,

[12] And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hand on him, that he might receive his sight.

[13] Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem:

[14] And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name.

[15] But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way:

for he is a chosen vessel unto me,

to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:

[16] For I will show him how great things he must ssuffer for my name's sake

[17] And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said,

Brother Saul, the Lord, even Yeshua, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.

[18] And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales:

and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.

Rom.9

[1] I say the truth in Messiah, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,

[2] That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.

[3] For I could wish that myself were accursed from Messiah for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:

[4] Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises;

[5] Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Messiah came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.

[6] Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect.

For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:

[7] Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.

[8] That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.

[9] For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sara shall have a son.

[10] And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac;

[11] (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;)

[12] It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.

[13] As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

[14] What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.

[15] For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

[16] So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

[17] For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might show my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.

[18] Therefore had he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.

[19] You will say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?

[20] Nay but, O man, who are you that repliest against God?

Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why have you made me thus?

[21] Had not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor?

[22] What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:

[23] And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,

[24] Even us, whom he had called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentil

[25] As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.

[26] And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.

[27] Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:

[28] For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.

[29] And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.

[30] What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.

[31] But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.

[32] Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;

[33] As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

 

1 Thes.4

[1] Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.

[2] For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

[3] For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:

[4] That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honor

[5] Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:

[6] That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.

[7] For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.

[8] He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.

[9] But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.

 

2 Tim.2

[15] Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

[16] But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

[17] And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;

[18] Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.

[19] Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Messiah depart from iniquity.

[20] But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonor.

[21] If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.

 

 

1 Pet.3

[7] Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.

 

We are still waiting for the return of Yeshua the Messiah

Wait with patience: 

Pss.31

 

[14] Wait on Yehovah: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart: wait, I say, on Yehovah.

 

Pss.37

 

[34] Wait on Yehovah, and keep his way, and he shall exalt you to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.

 

Prov.20

 

[22] Say not, I will recompense evil; but wait on Yehovah and he shall save you.

  

Have patience:

Luke 21

[19] In your patience possess you your souls.

 

Luke 8 

[15] … (they) that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.

Rom.5 

[1] Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Yeshua the Messiah:

[2] By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

[3] And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation works patience;

[4] And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

[5] And hope makes not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

 

Rom.8 

[24] For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man sees, why does he yet hope for?

[25] But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.

 

Rom.15 

[4] For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

[5] Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Messiah Yeshua:

[6] That you may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah.

 

 

 

Col.1

[9] For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that you might be filled with the nowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;

[10] That you might walk worthy of Yehovah unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

[11] Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;

[12] Giving thanks unto the Father, which had made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:

[13] Who had delivered us from the power of darkness, and had translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

 [14] In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

[15] Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:

[16] For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: 

[17] And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

[18] And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

[19] For it pleased the Father that in him should all fullness dwell;

[20] And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

[21] And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled

[22] In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:

[23] If you continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which you have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven…

 

1Thes.1 

[2] We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers;

[3] Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, in the sight of God and our Father; 

[4] Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.

 

2 Thes.1

[4] … we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that you endure: 

[5] Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer:

[6] Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you…

  

1Cor.1 

[7] … (see that) you come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah:

 

 

2Thes.3

[5] And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Messiah.

 

In closing:

Be a good vessel of God

Thanks for joining us, may God bless you

 Shabbat Shalom
