As we have been doing Torah Studies with our children we are beginning to see the LOVE of Father...
Let me share it with you here:
Genesis (its Hebrew name is Bereisheet meaning “in the beginning”) is the book dealing
with beginnings and how YHVH in his divine power chose certain people to accomplish his
purposes on earth.
Exodus (Hebrew name: Shemot meaning “names”) is the book whose main theme is redemption
or salvation. In this case, it is about Israel’s deliverance or salvation from Egypt (Hebrew:
Mitzraim), which we shall see later is a spiritual picture of this evil world. In Exodus we learn just how YHVH saves his people out of the world (or spiritual Egypt) and we are shown that his people are redeemed in order to worship him. The steps of YHVH’s plan of redemption are laid out in Exodus 6:6–8.
Leviticus (Hebrew: Vayikra meaning “he [YHVH] called”) gives instructions on HOW to worship YHVH. YHVH didn’t just tell his people to leave Egypt and to go into the wilderness to worship him. He gave them specific instruction on how to do this in Leviticus. This book is like an instruction book or “how to” manual on worshiping YHVH.
Numbers (Hebrew: B’midbar meaning “in the wilderness”) gives instructions pertaining to our spiritual walk and warfare in the “wilderness” of life. Upon leaving Egypt, not only does Israel learn to worship YHVH, but life in the wilderness begins. The wilderness is a picture of our physical lives on this earth as we are headed for the spiritual Promised Land of YHVH’s eternal or forever spiritual kingdom. We must learn to overcome sin and temptations.
We must learn to fight the devil and those who follow him who will attack us. We become victorious overcomers by faith in YHVH (and in his Word—the Torah and Yeshua) who will provide for all of our needs and help us to fight our battles
Deuteronomy (Hebrew: D’varim meaning “words”) gives instructions
to the younger generation preparing them to enter the Promised Land. Deuteronomy reviews the truths of the Torah, and adds some new Torah-laws, as well. In this book, we learn what our hearts should be like when obeying YHVH’s Torah (his instructions in righteousness). In it, YHVH predicts or prophesies
what will happen to Israel in the future IF they either obey or disobey his Torah-instructions.
WOW!! Did you know that the Torah had such promises that teach us of the LOVE of our ELohim and His son Yeshua the Messiah??
Will we be one of the chosen ones who bring forth the purposes He wants to accomplish on the earth as those in Genesis and love like Father?
Are we redeemed from spiritual Egypt? Have we given our lives and hearts to Yeshua in belief and then chosen to walk out that faith by following His commands?
When we do this we are redeemed and He has set us apart to worship Him; giving freely His love to others..!
Father loves us and didn't leave us hanging without instructions on how to worship Him. In Leviticus we find instructions on just what YHVH expects.
Then Father gives us instructions on how to live our lives here on earth.. We come to Yeshua in belief and faith and then we ask, "What do you want of me Elohim?" Where do I go from here?" "How can I make what I believe, my faith active and living?" We are pointed to Yeshua and his words, "If you love me, you will obey my commands." We can find those commands as YHVH gave them to us in Numbers. Did you know that Yeshua kept the Torah perfectly? Did you know He kept all the Biblical Feasts? Yeshua set an example for us...the LOVE of Father through His son! Can we show the LOVE of Father by obeying Him??
In Deuteronomy we find more instructions but also WONDERFUL promises given to us His people who because of our belief in Yeshua have also become Abraham's seed! If you haven't read the promises given to us I challenge you to go and read the promises YHVH gave if we will but follow Him and His ways; not our own..
Father loves us and through His word we see an amazing plan begin to unfold...
Let us LOVE as Father does! Let us seek His truths through His word! I pray that YHVH's love for YOU will be clearly shown as you seek Him in His whole Word...
What glorious love we have been given! Too amazing to comprehend! And with it a chance to LOVE like Father does!
Are you up for the challenge??
Great Post Ambra! It was great to see it all before my eyes, YES what a loving Father.....
