Shabbat shalom dearly beloved: There are so many amazing benefits of WISDOM that if people would embrace her, this world would be completely transformed! The word for WISDOM in Hebrew is CHOCHMA and it is in female gender. The source of all WISDOM is the Creator Himself! For YHVH gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding. Proverbs 2:6 Since YHVH is the one to give wisdom and since it originates from Him we can understand that those who fear and serve Him should be the wisest, most influential and strongest people in the Planet! The fear of YHVH is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. Proverbs 9:10 Wisdom strengthens a wise man more than ten rulers who are in a city.Ecclesiastes 7:19 By me kings reign, and rulers decree justice. Proverbs 8:15 They should be the most CREATIVE people in the Planet! YHVH by wisdom founded the earth, by understanding He established the heavens. Proverbs 3:19 Those who love and serve the Creator of the Universe should be the healthiest and wealthiest people on Earth! Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. Proverbs 3:16 That I will cause all those that love me to inherit substance and I will fill their treasures Proverbs 8:21 In fact the Benefit of Wisdom is equal to the Promise given to Abram Go forth from your country, and from your relatives and from your father's house, To the land which I will show you; and I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great; and so you shall be a blessing; andI will bless those who bless you, and the one who curses you I will curse and in you all the families of the earth will be blessed. Genesis 12:1-3 If Abram would display the Fear of YHVH by OBEYING His instructions to "get out from the familiar and from idolatry" then YHVH would cause the Benefits of Wisdom to be his. Abram and his descendants would become the most powerful, influential, prosperous and blessed people on the earth! THE FEAR OF YHVH AND TORAH The fear of YHVH is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all those who do His commandments; His praise endures forever. Psalm 111:10 Some proof that the Blessing of Abraham and the Benefits of Wisdom are one and the same is the fact that the Jewish People (the direct natural descendants of Abraham!) have earned the highest percentage of Nobel Prizes in the history of mankind! And that in spite of all their suffering and misfortune they always come out on TOP! The Torah and its instructions in righteousness made Israel the strongest and most influential nation in the Ancient World and it has made Israel a "military power" in the modern times as well! Once the Biblical Principles of Torah are applied to the normal affairs of life, those principles would give a Godly wisdom that is above those of Israel's enemies! Your commandments make me wiser than my enemies, for they are ever mine. Psalm. 119:98 King David And what one nation in the earth is like Your people Israel, whom God went to redeem for Himselfasa people, to make You a name by great and terrible things, in driving out nations from before Your people, whom You redeemed out of Egypt?22 For Your people Israel You made Your own people forever, and You, OLord, became their God. 1 Chronicles 17:21, 22 King Solomon One of the most moving stories that I have heard was from one of the recent military operations against terrorism in Gaza, the Cast Lead Operation. During the Shabbat all the soldiers were invited to the Military Synagogue and even secular soldiers went. Someone had bought thousands of "talit katan" which is an undergarment like the Priestly Ephod with FRINGES (Tsitsit). According to Numbers 15 all Jews need to wear fringes in the four corners of their garments, this would represent obedience to Yah's (God's) Commandments and it speaks in the spirit: "I fear YHVH, the God of Israel!". Speak to the sons of Israel, and tell them that they shall make for themselvestassels on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and that they shall put on the tassel of each corner a cord of blue.39 It shall be a tassel for youto look at and remember all the commandments of YHVH, so as to do them and notfollow after your own heart and your own eyes, after which you played the harlot,40 so that you may remember to do all My commandments andbe holy to your God.41 I am YHVH your God who brought you out from the land of Egypt to be your God; I am YHVH your Elohim. Numbers 15:38-41 During that Shabbat service all the soldiers that were going to enter the dangerous and "booby trapped" Gaza "snatched" the Talit Katan as if their lives depended on it! The young Israeli soldiers decided that this token of faith and fear of YHVH would be a better protection to them than any anti-bullet jacket! But they were one short and one soldier could not get one and he was so sad and scared! Another Israeli soldier, a believer in Yeshua gave him his own Talit Katan trusting the Blood of Yeshua to protect him! Faith in Yeshua, the Fear of YHVH and obedience to His instructions (Torah and Torah written in our hearts by the Holy Spirit) obtains the Benefits of Wisdom! For wisdom is protection just as money is protection, but the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the lives of its possessors. Ecclesiastes 7:12 The Definition of Wisdom from Various Sources From the Free on line dictionary 1. The ability to discern or judge what is true, right, or lasting; insight. 2. Common sense; good judgment 3. The sum of learning through the ages; knowledge. Wise teachings of the ancient sages. 4. A wise outlook, plan, or course of action. 5. Wisdom Bible Wisdom of Solomon. From Wikipedia Wisdom is a deep understanding and realization of people, things, events or situations, resulting in the ability to apply perceptions, judgments and actions in keeping with this understanding. It often requires control of one's emotional reactions (the "passions") so that universal principles, reason and knowledge prevail to determine one's actions. Wisdom is also the comprehension of what is true coupled with optimum judgment as to action. Synonyms include: sagacity, discernment, or insight. From the Bible The fear of YHVH is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. Proverbs 9:10 The fear of YHVH is the instruction for wisdom, and before honor comes humility. Proverbs 15:33 ARE YOU A VESSEL OF WISDOM? But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering, without hypocrisy. Yaakov (James) 3:17 Why is it that often non- believers have more wisdom in this world than believers in Messiah? It is YHVH Himself the Source of all Wisdom but some- times He does not find believers that will listen to His wisdom because they are full of RELIGION and PRIDE instead of HUMILITY, FAITH and OBEDIENCE. Both spirit filled and non -spirit filled Christians and even Messianic believers can be filled with the spirit of RELIGION rather than the true fear of YHVH that makes us WISE above others! This has been the condition of the Church due to Replacement Theology that has caused the Church world- wide to reject and even hate the Torah given To Israel. They call it in derogatory terms "the law" as if it is not Yah's words of instructions! That, of course is very foolish and it has robbed the Benefits of Wisdom. The following passage of Scripture explains it clearly! Do not think that I came to abolish theLaw or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill.18 For truly I say to you,until heaven and earth pass away, notthe smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished.19 Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and teachesothersto dothe same, shall be called leastin the kingdom of heaven; but whoeverkeeps and teachesthem, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:17-19 Because of rejecting Yah's Commandments as given to Israel many have stayed "small" instead of being GREAT like Elohim promised to Abram. Replacement Theology and the hatred of Yah's Torah Instructions have caused many not to enter into the Blessing of Abraham and the Benefits of Wisdom. He who turns away his ear from listening to the law, even his prayer is an abomination. Proverbs 28:9 DO NOT GRIEVE THE SPIRIT Do not quench the Spirit;do not despisepropheticutterances. 1 Thessalonians 5:19, 20 On the other hand those that have rejected the Holy Spirit, praying in spiritual languages (that gives us supernatural WISDOM!) and all the gifts of the Spirit have also forfeited the Benefits of Wisdom; because the only way to have the Torah written in our hearts is by the Holy Spirit! But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit. Jude 20 We must eagerly desire the Holy Spirit and all His gifts! Pursue love, yet desire earnestly spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy.1 Corinthians 14:1 WHEN THE RUACH HAKODESH (Holy Spirit) AND THE TORAH MEET IN OUR LIVES WE BECOME THE MOST POWERFUL PEOPLE ON EARTH! I will make anew covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah,32 not like thecovenant which I made with their fathers in the day Itook them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, Mycovenant which they broke, although I was a husband to them," declares theLord.33 "Butthis is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days," declares theLord, "I will put My law within them and on their heart I will write it; andI will be their God, and they shall be My people. Jeremiah 31:31-33 The only ones that will fully obtain the Benefits of Wisdom which include strength, influence, wealth, health, abundant life, eternal life and the fullness of Abraham's Blessing are those who will love Wisdom as it is given to us through Elohim's Word (including the Torah!) as inspired by the Holy Spirit! PraisetheLord! How blessed is the man who fears YHVH, who greatly delights in His commandments.Hisdescendants will be mightyon earth; the generation of theupright will be blessed. Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever. Psalm 112:1-3 These will become the most powerful and influential people in the Planet and will rule and reign with Messiah Yeshua during His Millennial Reign from the City of Jerusalem, the Capital of Israel! Let us pray and declare together: Behold, You desire truth in the innermost being, and in the hidden part You will make me know wisdom. Psalm 51:6 Your Friends and Mentors in Israel Bishop Dominiquae and Rabbi Baruch Bierman "For Zion's sake I will not keep silent" Isaiah 62:1 |
