If you have suffered great injustice by someone you called a friend, consider that so have thousands before us.

Reach for kindness in your heart , and if you can forgive, you have already overcome. But while we walk with unforgiveness, the heavy burden remains. When you can forgive, love can truly live and multiply.

A bitter person has no friends in and suffers a loss of living life to its full purpose and potential.

Matthew 6:14-15
"If you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses

There is no possibility of happiness until we have established friendship, fellowship, and a true relationship with YHVH. And there is no possibility of establishing this fellow - and friendship apart from the Cross of His Son, Yeshua Moshiach.

So, why is this?

Because only through Moshiach’s death on the Cross can we be forgiven and reconciled to Elohiym. It is if an accounting entry is made in the books of heaven, declaring us righteous for Moshiach’s sake.

The Divine cancels our debts through forgiveness.

Holding grudges and bitterness can interfere with your relationship with our God.

Nurturing hurt and anger can make it difficult to live in peace.

We are not each other's competitors when we have loving and caring hearts.

Matthew 5:7
“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.

James 2:13
Judgment (by YHVH) is without mercy to one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.

The issue raised is the issuing of judgment. So often, bitterness and judgment walk together while gossiping and slander is the preferred language.

Matthew 7:16–20
You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes or figs from thistles? So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree can not bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit.

Unforgiveness is like a disease that speaks and proclaims death.A healthy tree can not bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, you will recognize them by their fruits.

Forgiveness brings new life and new beginnings.

We show his fellowship by doing the will of our Father. Without this evidence in our lives, we hear the words, “I never knew you.”

If the forgiveness that we received at the cost of the blood of the Son of God, Yeshua, is so ineffective in our hearts that we are bent on holding unforgiving grudges and bitterness against someone, we are not a good tree.

Simply said, the person not speaking forgiveness refused to be saved and did not cherish the true meaning of forgiveness. There is no trust and value for them in this forgiveness as they don’t embrace and treasure the purpose of forgiveness.

1 Corinthians 6:9
“Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived”

Nobody is perfect in every way. We all have mistakes, but through love, understanding, and caring hearts, we know that forgiveness pardons the mistakes.

Our Father, Who are in heaven, HOLY be Thy Name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Be blessed and stay blessed 🪻🥰💜

Psalm 31:16
Let Your favor shine on Your servant. In Your unfailing love, rescue me.

I am a living testimony. I have walked through many storms in my own life to know without a shadow of a doubt that our Heavenly Father cares about every little detail of our life. He has a plan for us and He truly cares.

Let us continue to trust in YHVH's grace that will sustain us until His Kingdom come and we celebrate the everlasting life.

Sometimes it seems hard to connect to a positive thought when you are drowning in a sea of hopelessness. Therefore we place all our hope in the Only true God who saves.

Don’t be discouraged. Don’t be disturbed. For we know our God will break through for us as He remains fully in control.

Isaiah 41:10
“Fear not, for I Am with you; be not dismayed, for I Am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.”

Our Heavenly Father and Great I Am Father, as Your children we boldly come before Your throne of grace. Thank You for blessing us with a new day filled with Your love and Grace.

Take not for granted the smallest things and let it not slip our minds unnoticed. In all things, let us be reminded that every day is a gift and a blessing.

How often do individuals focus on the bad and speak the negative into their own lives? Giving it words to increase and feeding it by constant complaints.

Hosea 10:12
Sow righteousness for yourselves, reap the fruit of unfailing love, and break up your unplowed ground; for it is time to seek YHVH, until He comes and showers His righteousness on you.

A farmer will not just leave his dry land to waist, he will take care of it, preparing the soil to be plowed, plant seeds (positive) and pray for YHVH to send the rain.

Isaiah 45:8
“You heavens above, rain down my righteousness; let the clouds shower it down. Let the earth open wide, let salvation spring up, let righteousness flourish with it; I, YHVH, have created it.

Acts 14:17
Yet He has not left Himself without testimony: He has shown kindness by giving you rain from heaven and crops in their seasons; he provides you with plenty of food and fills your hearts with joy.

We experience the best joy and outcome in our life, when we give constant glory to YHVH. In the right season we will reap the good fruit of all our hard labor. Nothing just fall into our hands and just as grounds needs to be pepaired , and the seeds planted in the soil, there is a waiting time. While we wait, we pray that YHVH bless us by pouring out His blessings in our life.

Block out speaking curses in your own life, allowing negativity to take over everything you worked for. Speak life and experience prosperity.

Our Heavenly Father and Great I Am, thank You for every sparing life. Thank You for the joy we have, waking up this morning hearing the sound of rain, knowing that You have send doen the rain to feed the grounds. Thank You for patience and endurance. Even the very supportive structure to uphold us in our growth. Our Heavenly Father we are blessed with so many blessings and we take joy this morning, giving thanks with our hearts and spirit. Thank You for being our provider and taking care of us. Thank You for blessings of our children, family and friends. To You all the glory and praise. Please forgive us our trespasses and sins. Forgive us for every negative attitude and word spoken. Let Your kingdom come and will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Be blessed and stay blessed 🌷

L**h-L**ha

Our life changes when we connects with the Power of our Almighty and allow Him to do His will for us. Not only is this a important step of faith but, acknowledging that our relationship with YHVH is an act of love and spontaneous obedience.

Psalm 62:11
“Power belongs to you, YHVH.”

We would like to live in peace, experience love, prosperity and happiness. To experience the best things in life is to recognize the power of that is in YHVH's Name. Just by the power of YHVH's spoken words all comes to existence.

Our course and ways are determined by our Creator his plans are never to harm us but to offer us a.life of goodness and prosperity with a future.

Through our obedience to Him, YHVH will be moving mountains and opening seas. YHVH has the power to do more than what we can even imagine.

Matthew 22:14
“Many are called but few are chosen”

This statement is the conclusion to the Parable of the Wedding Feast. Yeshua spoke this parable to show what the kingdom of heaven will be like when the end of the age comes.

In the parable, the king sends his servants out to gather the wedding guests to the wedding feast. But those invited refused to come, some because they were too busy with their own worldly pursuits and some because they were positively hostile toward the king. So the king commands his servants to go out and invite anyone they find, and many come and fill the wedding hall. But the king sees one man without wedding clothes, and he sends him away.

Yeshua concludes by saying that many are called "invited" to the kingdom, but only those who have been “chosen” and have received Yeshua, will come.

The phrase "L**h L**ha" translates to "go forth" or "you should go".

This is an order that YHVH gave to Abram when YHVH prepared not only to change Abram's course but destined a future of hope and a foundation that will change the future of all his generations.

L**h-L**ha is considered a significant step in human history. YHVH calls Abram to leave his home and to go to a land that YHVH Himself will show him. This again indicates that Abram will not travel on his own, but that YHVH will lead the way.

YHVH promises to be with Abram and his family, to bless all nations of the earth through his family. YHVH who is the owner of all the earth and all that exist plannec to show Abram the land YHVH will define its borders.

In obedience to the instruction YHVH gave to Abram, Abram's entire future will change. Abram's journey is a mew identity and a new version of himself.

Genesis 12:1
YHVH had said to Abram, ‘Go [l**h l**ha] from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.’”

The Hebrew word l**h (לֶךְ) means "go". L**ha refers to "you" Another refrain of the word "l**ha" is "L**ha Dodi" which means "Let us go, my beloved, to greet the bride, the Sabbath presence, let us welcome" and is a request of Yisrael's "beloved" to join together in welcoming a "bride"

As a "bridegroom" will leave his home and prepare a home for his bride, YHVH as the Father prepared a home for His righteous son. This will be a place called "home". A place that is the new beginning of a future with his bride.

In the beginning YHVH instructed Adam and Chavah ‘life giver’ (Eve) to go out, be fruitful and multiply" in Genesis 1:28

The meaning of Chavah as ‘life giver’ comes to her only after she gives birth, become the mother of all the (Humans) living.” (Genesis 3:20)

L**h L**ha" is referred to as the Great Commission.

Matthew 28:19
Therefore go and make disciples of "all nations", baptizing them in the "Name of the Fathe"r and of "the Son" and of "the Holy Spirit" and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

The command"L**h L**ha,” carries the most exciting messages of YHVH’s call to His people to make exit and "aliyah" , literally to "go up or to ascend", to leave country, kindred, home and go to the Promised Land.

This resonate so deeply, spiritually and comforting to know that YHVH prepared a future and a place for us.

Yeshua HaMashiach is the Chosen one, YHVH had amazing plans for us through Yeshua. Every plan of YHVH is purposeful and determined for the best outcome.

Just as YHVH chosen Yeshua as the Messiah, that will change direction towards YHVH, YHVH chosen people in ancient times to contribute to the destined plan.

The Hebrew word "to choose" is בָּחַר, which is pronounced "bachar" and also meaning a biological. The Hebrew meaning "Bechira" means "the chosen one".

YHVH as the Alpha and Omega have a perfect plan from the beginning to everlasting.

Genesis 1:27-8
“So YHVH created mankind in His own image, in the image of YHVH He created them; male and female He created them. YHVH blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it.”

As the Creator and owner of all heaven, earth and all that exist, YHVH has the right to a "Chosen" one that will determine the full purpose of YHVH's plan

The word "aliyah" in Hebrew means to immigrate to the Land of "promise". When a person makes "aliyah’ it refers to "immigratation. Just as these words are defined a meaning as oleh or olah it means one who goes up. Abram was chosen by YHVH to oleh "go up".

YHVH chosen a very specific place, that YHVH Himself prepared at the time of creation for HIS purpose. YHVH established.

Genesis 12:2-3
“I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”

YHVH had said to David and to Solomon his son, “In this house and in Yerushalayim, which I have chosen before all the tribes of Yisrael, will "I put My Name for ever" 2 Chronicles 33:7

These passages emphasize that YHVH's covenant with Abraham and shows YHVH's heart for a diverse and redeemed people, gathered from every part of the world, ultimately fulfilling His promise to bless all families of the earth.

Genesis 12:1–4
Now YHVH said1 to Abram,“Go from your country and your kindred and your father’s house to the land that I will show you And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and pin you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” So Abram went, as YHVH told him, and Lot went with him.

As Abraham's entire future depended on the plans YHVH had for him, it was Abraham's faith and trust carried him through.

Galatians 3:7–9
Know then thst it is thise of faith who are the sons of Abraham. And the Scripture, foreseeing that YHVH would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying; In you shall all the nations be blessed.” So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith .

Isaiah 48:3
“I foretold the former things long ago.They went forth from My mouth, and I caused them to be heard. Suddenly I acted, so they came about.

YHVH's grace, love and His peace surely surpasses all understanding. There is no peace for the wicked.

Isaiah 48:15-19
I, I have spoken, yes I called him. I will bring him, so his ways will succeed. Draw near to Me, hear this: Since the beginning, I have not spoken in secret. From the time it existed, I was there. So now YHVH Elohim has sent Me, and His Ruach. Thus says YHVH, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Yisrael:
“I Am YHVH your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you in the way you should go. If only you had listened to My commandments! then your peace would be like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea. Your seed would have been like sand, and your offspring like its grains.
Their name would never be cut off or destroyed from before Me.”

YHVH gave the land he showed to Abraham as a inheritance for ever. YHVH directed the way to Abraham, YHVH led the Yisraelites through the desert and He provided the water. Nothing is done in secret andBy His spirit He leads us to His promises that will be fulfilled.

Isaiah 48:21-22
They did not thirst when He led them through the deserts.
He caused the water to flow out of the rock for them.
He split the rock also, and the waters gushed out.’”
“There is no shalom,” says YHVH, “for the wicked.”

The earth is filled with His Glory As the generations of Abraham are blessed, the earth is filled with a multitude of the offspring of Abraham.

Genesis 28:13–14
“I Am YHVH, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the land on which you are lying. Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and … all peoples on earth will be blessed through you and your offspring.”

The wicked ones try to bring great division into the world, but it is YHVH Himself that will do the final sifting, removing the wicked. The Kingdom of YHVH will never be shaken, nor will it be destroyed. YHVH's power will prevail and His promises never fail. All will be accomplished.

Revelation 7:9–11 (A Great Multitude from Every Nation)
After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number from every nation, from all tribes and people and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white white robes, with palm branches in their hands and crying out with a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne and to the Lamb" And all the Angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped YHVH.

A House divided cannot stand. There is only One God and One faith. In Standing together undivided we are His people.

Isaiah 54:10
“‘Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet My unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed,’ says YHVH, who has compassion on you.’”

When YHVH commanded Abram to walk the length and breadth of the land, it fulfilled a legal custom in ancient times to claim ownership of a property by walking through it.

Do we also claim our ownership to walk by faith and in His truth to be chosen for the promised Kingdom.

Noah walked “with” YHVH; YHVH paved the way for Abram to walk “before” YHVH, to come to the knowledge of faith in his walk knowing the one true God is with him.

Abram crossed over into his destiny chosen by YHVH, and his descendants inherited the reward and blessing. May we, too, come to this life-altering place where we “cross over” into a newness of new beginnings, experiencing our life with Him.

As the wedding feast is prepared, we participate in being clothed and ready.

Genesis 5:24
And Enoch walked with YHVH: and he was not; for YHVH took him."

In this verse above, the Hebrew word for "took" is "laqach" and it means:

"To take, receive, to be led away, to be captured, to gain possession, exercise authority. To take a woman means "to "marry a wife", to be taken away from her family, have a relationship with her and bring children forth.

In fact it means to win her heart over and let her desires be for you that is her husband. When you have children that she will teach the children well. " It shares its root with the Hebrew word "leqach" which means: "teaching, instruction, learning". The Groom coming to sweep His Bride off her feet and take her to be married, after she has purified herself, through His teaching and instruction.

The Hebrew word for "went up" is the same word as "aliyah" and means: "to go up, ascend, rise, to be lifted up, to be carried away. The base meaning of "rise in elevation" stem from "to exalt, honour."

To those who believe in the God of Yisrael, the Messiah Yeshua our Savior, we are being "called up" to live our lives increasingly holy and be focused on the One that is "above".

Yeshua was without sin, Enoch "pleased God" and Elijah was a prophet of God, Noah and Abraham walked righteously. Yeshua HaMashiach is known as the Righteous one who sits at the right side of YHVH.

Soon we will celebrate the Feast of Chanukah, which means "Feast of Dedication." That feast is all about the Messiah hidden in plain sight, being "dedicated" to YHVH in holiness.

Before the bride is ready she goes through a time of purification and cleansing.

1 Corinthians 6. 19-20
Know you not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have of YHVH, and you are not your own? For you are bought with a price: therefore glorify YHVH in your body, and in your spirit...."

When YHVH ask us to leave everything, we must embrace, be joyful in our hearts as He opens the door for us. These words speak to us, to go to the Land that “He will show you.”

This is a level of trust that you can only understand fully when you spiritual and physically experience it. This is a time of reflection before we make AliaYah.

Lesson Continuing!

Be blessed and stay blessed

Noach's Favor

Psalm 41 says, “The favor of YHVH keeps my enemies from defeating me.” When you walk in YHVHs favor, honoring Him with your life, knowing who you are, you cannot be defeated by the enemy that wants to destroy your life.

Psalm 5:12
"The Favor of YHVH goes before me and surrounds me as a shield."

We wake up daily purely by the Grace of YHVH and because He is our Father who truly loves us because we are His. Even when times of great destruction surround us, He guards us from the enemy being present in our midst.

2 Corinthians 6:2
"For He says, 'In the time of my Favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.' I tell you, now is the time of YHVHs favor."

YHVH command Noach to build the ark that would preserve the human race from total destruction in the flood.

Regardless of the disbelievers, Noach obeys the order YHVH gave him.

In the first chapter of Genesis, YHVH saw that all He had made was good. Generations after sin increased in the world, YHVH sees that wickedness and evil entered into the human race. Once again, mankind is failing to live up to YHVH’s good plan for creation.

Genesis 6:1- 7
And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives, whomsoever they chose. And YHVH said: 'My spirit shall not abide in man for ever, for that he also is flesh; therefore shall his days be a hundred and twenty years.'The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown. And YHVH saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.And YHVH regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. And YHVH says, “I wipe away man whom I have created from off the face of the ground, from man to beast, to creeping thing, and to bird of the heavens, for I have regretted that I have made them.” But Noah found favor in the eyes of YHVH.

The word "favor " in Hebrew is "ratson" which means to delight or take pleasure. Favor is a divine blessing that embrace your life and draw us near YHVH The favor comes from YHVH,and it is demonstrated through men.

Another Hebrew word to consider is "Hen" which also refers to favor, mercy, kindness, graciousness. The Hebrew word: Hesed means , "loving-kindness, mercy, pity". YHVH's grace is unmerited favor, an expression of YHVH's affection.

Psalms 30:6;
“For His anger is but for the moment, His favor is for a life time. Weeping may tarry for the night but joy comes in the morning.”

Our expectation can be set for a flow of favor and released through the words we speak. The blessings of YHVH are already ours, but we engage our faith and open the way for YHVH's blessings to come to us through what we believe and declare concerning our life.

YHVH offered all these people a second chance to live and starting fresh. But they continued to go their own way, ignorant about what is about to come. They continued with their own choices and ways until the day came of the great flood. Must a disaster strike, before people realize that YHVH revealed this ahead of time. In the case of the flood people ignored the calling and missed the opportunity to be saved.

I believe that Noach and his family endured a major tragedy to see all the people they once knew, other than those on the ark, have all died. it is heartbreaking to see the people we care about are not attentive to hear the truth and accept the invitation to be saved. The emotional trauma that went along with this final day of the flood surely must have been a eye opener for Noach’s family.

YHVH found Noach righteous and therefore, he found favor in the eyes of YHVH, worthy to be saved. Although the world was filled with injustice, wickedness cruelty and violence, YHVH found favor in Noach and this favor received is the Mercy YHVH gave Noach finding him worth saving.

In the generation of Noach, he was the only ish (man) that was tzadik (righteous). Favor is an expression of affection and YHVH's love. In Hebrew, the name Noach means "rest or consolation". To bring comfort .

Just as YHVH told Noah exactly when to enter the ark, YHVH told Noah exactly when to leave the ark. YHVH didn’t leave the decision up to Noach, that was for Noach’s own safety to ensure he and his family would survive when they left the ark.

Noach and his family are on the brink of saving grace and the gift of starting over a new life. Let’s see what they do first.

When Noach offered a sacrifice to YHVH after leaving the ark, YHVH was pleased.

Although YHVH knew that evil was before they entered the Ark, evil were there after again attempting to consume the world not too long after the flood. YHVH made a promise that no matter how bad things got, He would not destroy the earth again with a flood. Instead, YHVH is patient and aiting for the day whenHe will once again make all things new. Not many people grasp the Mercy that YHVH’S offer, but many takes His mercy for granted.

Psalm 136 - His Mercy Endures Forever
1 Give thanks to YHVH, for HE is good. For HIS mercy endures forever.
2 Give thanks to the GOD of gods. For HIS mercy endures forever.
3 Give thanks to YHVH Tzevaot. For HIS mercy endures forever.

His Creating Love
4 To HIM who alone does great wonders For HIS mercy endures forever.
5 To HIM who by HIS understanding made the heavens For HIS mercy endures forever.
6 To HIM who spread out the earth on the waters For HIS mercy endures forever.
7 To HIM who made the great lights, For his mercy endures forever.
8 the sun to rule by day, For HIS mercy endures forever.
9 the moon and stars to rule by nigh For HIS mercy endures forever.

His Redeeming Love
10 To HIM who struck Egypt by killing their firstborn, For HIS mercy endures forever.
11 and broughtYisrael out from their midst, For HIS mercy endures forever.
12 with a mighty hand and outstretched arm, For HIS mercy endures forever.
13 To HIM who cut the Red Sea in two, For HIS mercy endures forever.
14 and brought Yisrael through the middle of it, For HIS mercy endures forever.
15 but brushed off Pharaoh and his army into the Red Sea, For HIS mercy endures forever.
16 To HIM who made HIS people travel through the wilderness, For HIS mercy endures forever.
17 To HIM who struck down great kings, For HIS mercy endures forever.
18 and killed mighty kings, For HIS mercy endures forever.
19 Sihon king of the Amorites, For HIS mercy endures forever.
20 and Og king of Bashan, For HIS mercy endures forever.
21 and gave their land as a possession,For HIS mercy endures forever.
22 a possession to HIS servant Yisrael. For HIS mercy endures forever.

His Continuing Love
23 Who remembered us in our low condition, For HIS mercy endures forever.

24 and tore us out of the hands of our oppressors. For HIS mercy endures forever.
25 HE gives food to all living creatures. For HIS mercy endures forever.
26 Give thanks to the GOD of the heavens. For HIS mercy endures forever.

YHVH finds great value in life, His favor is our daily portion of His love. As YHVH establishes a covenant to never flood the earth again, YHVH express His Mercy to be a sign of His love. Every time it rains and we see the rainbow we are reminded about YHVH's Mercy and His power to save the world.

The very thing Noach done after he left the ark was to build an altar to worship YHVH. This is something that Noach did as an act of worship from his heart.

We are created to be the image bearers of YHVH's amazing love and we bear the highest image of YHVH Himself when we act towards others in the same way of YHVH's affection and mercy.

YHVHs plan is that the cycle of days and seasons would endure to be bring Glory to His magnificent Name.

In both Ezekiel 1 and Revelation 4, YHVH’s radiance is described as a brilliant rainbow. So next time you see a rainbow, stand in awe that YHVH is letting you see a glimpse of His glory.

Words and actions can have a significant impact on our lives in many ways, it can evoke emotional responses that shape our beliefs and drive our behavior.

Negative words release curses and contribute to verbal discouragement.

Words can shape how others perceive us, just as words can have a deep connection on a person's heart.

For someone who has not grown up with the encouragement that YHVH is full of Mercy, it can be shocking to discover that YHVH destroyed His world, but look pass the Merciful act of the opportunities He offers in His Mercy to save humanity from evil.

These people have participated in the corruption, evil and wickedness and cimmited sin in the sight of YHVH. Although they have been sinful and deserved the flood of YHVH’s wrath, YHVH gave them the opportunity to get on the ark to be saved.

In today’s life we find that wickedness and evil entered the world to come and destroy.

We need to look at Noach’s story as a miracle, a story is a warning but also about the salvation. Our faith in the miraculous deeds of our Almighty allows us to embrace the supernatural aspects of our faith.

Throughout the Scripture we find that YHVH will not tolerate sin indefinitely, and when His reckoning comes suddenly we have to be ready.

Romans 6:23, states that the wages of sin is death. Noah’s story is underscored by the warning that sin’s consequences are severe.

Just as people were unprepared for the flood in Noach’s time, so too will many be unprepared for His return.

Noach’s story is a miracle, and it serves as a warning, but ultimately, the story of Noach highlights YHVH’s mercy rather than His wrath. The real surprise in this text is not YHVH’s judgment, but His grace towards those who respond to Him.

Genesis 6:16, and specifically this phrase: “…YHVH shut him in.” Just as a father tucks his children in at night for safety, YHVH seals those who trust Him. Salvation is only possible through being “shut in” by YHVH. Heed Noach’s warning, and accept YHVH's grace.

There’s something irresistible about those pairs of animals and the incredible scale of what Noach built. It reminds us of the preparation of YHVH's Kingdom with many rooms.

We can't always just accept to overlook our wrongs. We have to acknowledge them and therefore YHVH even made Atonement available.

The wrong's that we do is more serious than we admit, we are offered to make the choice to repent and be saved.

Noach’s story begins with descriptions of YHVH grieving at what His creation had become. He sees the wickedness of human actions and the evil of human attitudes.

We experience some of YHVH's pain when someone offend us. The impact of negativity are similar to rejection of the goodness that YHVH revealed in His Merciful plan.

When YHVH vows to “blot out” His creation, it’s a word that can be used when wiping clean a dirty dish (2 Kings 21:13). Just as YHVH cleansed the earth with water in Noach’s day, YHVH promises to one day purify the world with the fire of judgment (2 Peter 3:5-7)

With such hopeless assessments of human sinfulness, we are fully surprised to learn that there’ is a person who has “found favor in the eyes of YHVH”.

Noach is called “righteous” and “blameless” (Genesis 6:9). What does it take to find favor with YHVH in a world where sin feels like second nature? Noach’s righteousness is that he “walked with YHVH” . Righteousness was found in the character and nature of Noach. We are told that Noach had a relationship with YHVH, a relationship of trust in YHVH that caused him to walk in light of YHVH’s commands.

Hebrews 11:17 says, “By faith Noach, being warned by YHVH concerning events as yet unseen, in reverent fear constructed an ark for the saving of his household. By this he … became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.”

We do not just need someone who walks with YHVH; but to trust in every word that He had spoken.

Let us we find another miracle in Lamach naming his son Noach and saying “Out of the ground YHVH has cursed, this one shall bring us relief from our work and from the painful toil of our hands” Genesis. 5:29

The story of Noach highlights much deeper than we can grasp. Considering that evil (Hamas) was before and thereafter.

The flood was not meant to be the end, but a new beginning like a woman who gives birth and the waters break to announce the birth.

Life on earth is not so much drowned, but taken over by the forces of chaos in order to be recreated into beautiful, useful function once again. A baptism and renewal of a new life. While we tend to focus on Noach, the ark, the water, or the animals, the really interesting action is happening with YHVH Himself when He offers pure Mercy through His endless love.
