** ~ THOUGHTS ~ **

Thoughts at the beginning of my day ~

1) Exodus 1:10 ISR98

come, let us act wisely towards them, lest they increase, and it shall be when fighting befalls us, that they shall join our enemies and fight against us, and shall go up out of the land.”

~ if I read this Scripture correctly, at the very end it says that the egyptians were afraid the Israelites would side with their enemies. Why did they think that way if there was no current rebellion on the part of the Israelites?  Politically speaking it would have made more sense to treat them with kindness and get them "on their side".  Then they would have been unbeatable, from any other earthly enemy!

I suspect this lie, this fear, came from the enemy, because satan knew our SAVIOR YAHUSHA would come out of these people!! 

2)  I never saw this before, I always thought that Mosheh (Moses) killed the egyptian just because he thought it was wrong for the egyptian to beat the Hebrew, but I see here in this scripture that he actually knew HE WAS Hebrew.  "And he saw a Mitsrite (egyptian) beating a Heḇrew, one of his brothers."  I don't know how I missed that important little nugget before?

Exodus 2:11 ISR98

And in those days it came to be, when Mosheh was grown, that he went out to his brothers and looked at their burdens. And he saw a Mitsrite beating a Heḇrew, one of his brothers.

< still not sure about the part where it says Mosheh knew that was his "brother", thus saying he knew he was Hebrew.  It must be important or Elohim (God), Ruach ha Kadosh (holy/set apart Spirit), would not have brought it to my attention. 
OH OH OH!!  Even as I wrote this I received *WORD*, just as Mosheh knew he was Hebrew, that was his brother being beaten; we, I, KNOW now that we too are *family* and it's of VITAL IMPORTANCE that we KNOW who we are!!!!!

I hope that makes as much sense in words as it did in my spirit.>

3) Psalms 46:10-11 ISR98

Be still, and know that I am Elohim; I am exalted among nations, I am exalted in the earth! יהוה of hosts is with us; The Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ is our refuge. Selah.

~ I'm not sure why, but this scripture has been sticking with me throughout the week.  I get very *disturbed*, I guess that would be the best word, when I see the things going on in our nation and around the world, especially to innocent children (including those who are raised to believe horrific lies, or murdered for those lies).  Just like Mosheh,  I have a desire to speak out and defend them. To be honest if I could strike them physically, that desire is there also, but I squash that of course, i'm human, but I ask forgiveness for & protection from those desires, and thankfully forgiven.  Yet, this scripture has been speaking out to me more and more and more and more and more and more everyday.  And notice, that if you read it in the correct scriptural version, it doesn't say "HE" will be exalted, it says "I" will be exalted,  Elohim Himself was declaring the final victory is His.  And what did it say we need to do? "Be still, and know that I am Elohim"  it did not say to strike out, or even speak out it said to "Be still, and know that I am Elohim".  This sheds new light on that question I have been asking myself so often doesn't it?  How to pray, what to do, when I see so much injustice in the world.  "Be still, and know that I am Elohim"  And HE is our refuge!!  not our government, not our supposed leaders, not even our own selves, not anyone or anything else but ELOHIM!

Psalms 46:10-11 ISR98

Be still, and know that I am Elohim; I am exalted among nations, I am exalted in the earth! יהוה of hosts is with us; The Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ is our refuge. Selah.

SHABBAT SHALOM!
