Elohim's Aleph-Bet (Letters) - The Resh

Shalom friends. My name is Chadwick Harvey. You have reached Faithful Performance. Thank you so much for joining us tonight as we continue our journey on Elohim's Aleph-Bet by discovering the letter Rash. It is the 20th letter of the Aleph-Bet. It has a great anointing to it that we'll find out, along with all the other anointings that the letter has. We'll go through those.

First, I'd like to make a couple of announcements. We are going to go back to Israel, June 7th through the 17th, next year, 2027. It is during the festival of Shavuot, and we all know how important that festival is. So, please pray into it if you're willing, if you're wanting to go, to see what the Lord says. You can find more information on the website through the QR code or on the website in general. We'll be doing more videos on the tour once we get into the fall, since we're going here June 7th through the 17th. So, we look forward to seeing you there if God leads.

Also, if you want to visit us on the website, faithfulperformance.org, we do have a new website with the Hebrew calendar on there, also a lot of other news articles, things like that. Please sign up for the email list as well, as you'll get notifications of the videos that we do, and also the transcript will come with it. So, please visit us on the website. It's got a lot of cool gadgets and gigs that I think you'll like.

And also, the Watchman Report. It is kind of like a side off of the faithfulperformance.org website, but it's a website of its own. And basically, we just gathered all of the articles from the important resources that we feel are important. And so, you get all of the news articles in one spot, you know, in one website. You can see really all of the news articles from even America, and obviously the Middle East, and all of those dire reports that we do get. So, please visit us on thewatchmenreport.com, and you can find all of the articles that tell you what's going on in the Middle East with the updated news, so to speak. So, we look forward to seeing everybody there.

But tonight, my friends, we're going to go through the Rash. If you're not familiar with the 20th letter of the Aleph-Bet, it's on the bottom row, three letters from the end there. It looks like the number seven. So, we're at the Rash right now, and we have two more letters, and we'll get through the Aleph-Bet one more time before the Feast of Trumpets. So, we'll do two more letters in weeks, and we'll be finished with the Aleph-Bet. So, I hope you guys who have been with us have enjoyed what God has shown us on the letters, how important the letters are to one's walk with the Messiah, and the deeper layers of understanding through the scriptures. It's really amazing once we have that understanding or the education and the knowledge to go read the scriptures again, and we can see these Hebrew letters in there. And that's why we do the devotionals on there.

Okay. So, another thing is, we do have a book coming out, "The Cross to the Crown" book. You can see it behind me there. It is out right now via ebook. You can find that through the website, and then also the printed version should be out soon. I've ordered a book to make sure it's cool, make sure everything's good with the book before we start, you know, making sure it's out there, marketing it, so to speak. So, let me get the book. I believe it's coming tomorrow. Let me thumb through the book to make sure there are no errors on Amazon's end, and then I will let everyone know whoever is interested in the book. But there is an ebook that you can get, and it is on the website. So, please visit us there and sign up for the email, and we will get you an ebook from "The Cross to the Crown" book. We have added a few chapters in the book since the last edition, the first edition. So, this is the second edition really that's being released, and we have a couple extra chapters in there. And basically, the book is about the calendar year from the Feast of Trumpets to the Feast of Trumpets on the civil calendar, and going through the entire year from the cross to the crown, you know, going through the purification journey that we find by observing the Sabbath, by observing the feast days, by observing the new moon celebrations, all of these things, and why that is important. So, we go through that through the book.

And also, the prerequisites that I personally believe if one reads the Holy Bible through the calendar, the feast days, the covenants, the table of nations, they're going to really understand the trajectory of the Holy Bible with God's plan of salvation for Jews and Gentiles with the covenants, and also what time it is with the calendar and the feast days as we get to the end of the age. And it makes the Bible read very fluently. Okay, we're not going to be guessing. We'll know what time it is. We're not going to be caught as a thief in the night because we're reading the Holy Bible the way that it's supposed to be read with the prerequisites that God put in there for us to understand the tools on how to read the Holy Bible. Kind of like the table of contents to a book, right? It tells us what the chapter is going to be, what's included in the chapter, what the overall message is of each chapter. Well, that's the same thing with reading the Holy Bible. If we understand the calendar, the feast days, the covenants, and how those work together at the end of the age, also with the table of nations, with the prophecies of the biblical prophets, the battle of Armageddon, then we're going to have a great understanding of what's going down in the Middle East, and we're not going to be caught as a thief in the night, you know. So, that's why it's super important to read these things the way that Yahweh has told us to read them. And then we'll have a better understanding as we go through and read it like that over and over and over. Things just glide into you, you know, so to speak, with Revelation.

But tonight, my friends, let's go through the Rash. It's a very powerful letter. Please forgive me on the dates there; that was when we did the last Hebrew letters in 2023. But as we always do, we're going to read a scripture to begin with. And then we'll tie it in when we get finished with the education and the knowledge. We'll come back to Matthew 5 and we'll have a better understanding of what the Rash means in this scripture, but also in general to other scriptures as well. So, we'll begin tonight with Matthew 5:1-12. And this is Yeshua talking. And he says, "And seeing the multitudes, he went up on a mountain, and when he was seated, his disciples came to him. Then he opened his mouth and taught them, saying, 'Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see Yah. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be sons of Yah. Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for my name's sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.'"

Okay. So, we all know this is the Sermon on the Mount. It's a very powerful sermon, of course, the Sermon on the Mount, the Olivet Discourse. These are very powerful statements, if you will, by the Most High, by Yeshua. So, we've got to understand the reason that he was given these, and also the anointing of the letters that he uses in those, so to speak. So, that's what the Rash is, my friends. We're going to go through the Rash, and then we'll come back to what Yeshua was speaking of with that passage with the 20th letter of Elohim, the Rash, and its numerical value is 200. 20 is a powerful number in many ways, as it is a double portion of 10, and partakes of its consecrated meaning, which is the perfection of divine order. So, we all know that the number 10 is the perfection of divine order. So, number 20 is a double portion of that perfection of divine order. However, it is one short of 21, which is significant, as it signifies the expectancy of a matter, anticipation of it. Remember, seven is spiritual perfection, and three is divine perfection, marking 21 as the fulfillment of both spiritual perfection (seven) and divine perfection (three). So, this is super important to realize what the Rash means. The Rash is more of the anticipation of 21. You see? So, the number 20 is the expectation of the deliverance, if you want to call it that, or number 21, where it's 7 times 3, or 3 times 7, divine perfection times spiritual perfection is 21. So, the number 20 sits right below that. Okay? And that's why it's the expectation number, is the number 20, in the numerical understanding of the scriptures. Okay?

Here are a few examples in the Holy Scriptures to confirm its anointing: 20 years Jacob waited to get possession of his wives and property. 20 years Solomon was waiting for the completion of the two houses. 20 years Jeremiah prophesied concerning the destruction, exile, and captivity of Israel and what the people would face if they did not wholeheartedly repent. So, as we can see, my friends, 20 is the number of expectation. Okay? It's right below spiritual perfection and divine perfection, the number 21. So, right where it's located is very important. Next week, we'll go through the Shin, which is the number 21, and we'll see how that relates to the Rash in the number 20. Okay? We'll go through that next week. But as we can see through the scriptures, friends, 20 years is a waiting time for the expectation of the deliverance. Okay? Whether it's, you want to look at it from divine perfection or spiritual perfection, or just in deliverance in general, you know, either way, it's the number of expectation. Okay? Excuse me. I'll make sure my mouse is running a little bit wild tonight. So, let's make sure that, here we go. Yes. I'm sorry. This thing I think went Okay, there we go.

So, 20 is the number of expectancy, and 200, we have it tenfold. Okay? So, again, we have the number 20, which is a double portion of the number 10. Okay? Number one, divine perfection. We're right below spiritual and divine perfection, number 21. However, we have the number 200 in the numerical value. We have it in a tenfold. Okay? 20 times 10. So, this is super important to realize how the numbers and the letters match up together. So, again, 20 is the number of expectancy, and we all know that 10 is the number of divine perfection, or perfection of order. Okay? And then the number 200, we have it as a tenfold, 20 times 10, which goes over the divine perfection of order again with number 20 times 10. So, again, we have this number of expectancy, and we also have the divine perfection of order illuminated tremendously during the letter Rash. Again, 20 is the number of expectancy, and 200, we have it tenfold, 20 times 10.

There is a stamp of insufficiency upon it, friends. A great illustration of this number is Ezra's 200 singing men and women who were not sufficient to produce peace with Yah. And that's in Ezra 2:65. Another example is David's son, Absalom's hair, that weighed 200 shekels. Pretty interesting, right? But it was not sufficient to save him, but rather caused his destruction. Okay? So, again, this proves the insufficiency of beauty. Rash stands for rash, or one who is poor. That's why when we read the Sermon on the Mount, we put the Rash there where it says about the poor, you know, the poor in spirit. It also signifies a person who is bent over, especially their head. So, like we said before, friends, when we look at the formation of the character, okay, of the letter, we can get great understanding from this. We've gone through letters before on the left that we look at the Koph or the Tzadi, or some of these double form letters, that the first form was humility, and then the second form was exaltation, right? We went through that with the Koph, we went through that with the Tzadi, etcetera, you know, is that that's what it is, is the first letter humility, and then exaltation. Okay? Well, this letter is about total humility. When you look at it, when you look at the character form, it's someone bent over in prayer. All right? So, this is a humble letter. This is a humility letter, if you will, and something that we can get great understanding from that. Okay? Because it still is that insufficiency that we're waiting on the deliverance, if you will. Okay?

When we study the shape of the letter, it resembles a servant bending over in service to another. It is a picture of humility and humbleness, or humble humbleness, excuse me. Like the Rash, we need to be on our knees, face down, in total and complete servantthood to our Master Yeshua. In doing so, it will also teach us to serve our neighbors as well. So, again, it's twofold, right? It's the two greatest commandments. It's the first commandment: we bow down to our Most High Elohim. And then the second commandment is loving our neighbor and being in service to our neighbor as well. You know, too many times we don't want to be in service, right? We want somebody to wash our feet, right? And Yeshua washed their feet, right? So, we are, we never want to be in service too much, you know, of today. You know, that's just mankind. That's just how we're made sometimes, right? And we've got to remember to be humble and to be in humility, and also to be in servantthood, not only to the Father, but also to our neighbor as well, which would fulfill the two greatest commandments. Okay?

Like the Rash, we need to be on our knees, face down, in total and complete servantthood to our Master Yeshua. In doing so, he will also teach us to serve our neighbors as well. It is written, "As the Father loved me, I have also loved you. Abide in my love. If you will keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and I abide in his love. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends. You are my friends if you do whatever I command you. Again, you are my friends if you do whatever I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing. But I have called you friends, for all things that I have heard from my Father, I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and I appointed you, and you should go and bear good fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in my name, He may give to you. These things I command you, that you love one another."

Friends, we all know this scripture. It's one of my favorite chapters or two chapters in the Holy Bible: John 14 and John 15. These are extraordinarily important chapters for the Jews and the Christians to read. It really is that important. If we can understand what the Master said in John 14 and 15, we would be in alignment, right? And look at what he says. This is, he says it in John 14 as well. But in John 15:9-17, it is written, "As the Father loved me, I have also loved you. And if you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and I abide in his love." So again, to all of my Christian friends out there, we have to keep the commandments just like Yeshua kept the commandments. I mean, isn't it crazy when we look at it that Yeshua, just like it said, he said he kept the commandments perfectly. He had to. If he wasn't perfect, he wouldn't have been the Son of God. He would have been the Jewish Messiah. So, of course, or the King of Israel. So, of course, he kept the commandments. So, isn't it interesting that our Christian friends believe that they can believe in Jesus, but they don't have to keep the commandments, but he kept the commandments? How selfish is that? Okay? He kept His Father's commandments. He expects us to. But the Christians feel like he went to the cross so they can be disobedient. I mean, it's pretty amazing, isn't it? In a bad way.

So, again, again, he went to the cross so that we would be obedient, not disobedient, right? And then when we are disobedient, that's when the grace comes in instead of the sword, instead of the gavel. Okay? So, we have to really understand that again, if my Christian friends would understand John 14 and 15, "If you love me, if if you love me, you'll keep my commandments." Goodness gracious. I mean, what a If you love me, Chadwick, you will keep my commandments. And if you don't, you do not love me, is what he truly says in John 14:15. And that might offend people, but people need to really go read John 14:15 to understand the standard, okay, that he has for his believers. And that standard is His Father's commandments, okay? Just like he kept His Father's commandments, He wants His servants to keep His Father's commandments as well. It's pretty simple to understand to an obedient heart. Okay? We have to understand that. Okay? He wants obedience. Okay? And that's why we're facing what we're facing in Israel. That's why we're facing what we're facing in America. That's why the world's facing what they're facing is because we have a bunch of disobedient believers out there. I'm not talking about the unbelievers. The believers are the ones who are disobedient. He's worried about the believers, the remnant. Okay? Just like with Israel. He's worried about Israel's behavior. He's not worried about their enemy's behavior. The enemy's behavior depends on Israel's behavior. Okay? Does that make sense? If they obey, no enemies. If they disobey, all of the enemies. Okay? So, that's what the Torah says. That's what Moses says in Leviticus 26 and Deuteronomy 28 through 30. Okay? And throughout the entire Torah, he tells the people to be obedient, or it's not going to be good. Same thing with Yeshua. He's telling everybody in John, "Father loved me, I have also loved you. Abide in my love. If if you keep my commandments, then you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments, and I abide in his love." That's it, folks. I mean, that's the standard right there. He obeyed, and He wants us to obey. Again, He didn't go to the cross for a bunch of disobedient people. He went to the cross so that we would love Him and be obedient in all of these things. You know, it's the reverse of what people think.

"These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full." How's that? By the commandments, right? "This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends. You are my friends if you do whatever I command you." I mean, what a powerful statement, my friends. If you are keeping His commandments, you are the Master's friend. Think about that. I mean, that is how powerful. You are the friend of Yeshua. You are the friend of Yahweh. What did He call Abraham? "My friend Abraham." Why? Because Abraham was disobedient and sacrificing other gods and doing all that? Of course not. You know, he was obeying. He obeyed Him. That's why He went to live with Noah for what, 48 years, 38 years or something? Okay? So, and learned the commandments of God. Okay? So, we have to realize that. I mean, it's all throughout the scriptures if we know it. Even though the Torah was given at Mount Sinai, the people before that who loved Yahweh kept the commandments. I mean, Abraham was making unleavened bread in Genesis 18 when the three men came to him and told him that he was going to have Isaac the next year on Passover. That tells you that it was unleavened bread and Passover because he was making unleavened bread. Genesis 18, the three men came, told him they were going to have Isaac. They had a good laugh together, and Sarah and Abraham did. And then the two angels went down and destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. Okay? On the Feast of Unleavened Bread. So, if we, again, if we understand the calendar, the feast days, we understand the unleavened bread, the symbolism, and all of these things, and understand that God's ways are His ways. Even before the Torah, His ways are His ways. Okay? Noah, Abraham, Enoch, all of the ancients, man, they were obedient believers. Adam, you know, they were all obedient. Even though Adam and Eve made a mistake, Abraham did too. We do as well. But they were still obedient overall in the trajectory of their life to the Most High God. And that's why Abraham was called His friend, right? So, it's pretty amazing to be called a friend of Yeshua, you know, but the prerequisite is, is we keep His commandments. I can say I love Jesus all I want, but if I don't keep His commandments, He does not think that I love Him, according to John 14:15. I can say I love Jesus, I love Jesus, I love Jesus, and go act like a rebel, and I don't love Jesus because I'm not following the Master's commandments, His Father's commandments. Okay? So, this is super important. It gets right down to it in John 14:15. And that's something for our Christian friends to really understand, and even my Jewish friends to understand that. Why? Because the Jewish people look at the Christians and be like, "How could that be our religion or the way?" Because of all the paganism and all of these things, not keeping the commandments. So, when the Jewish people, if they would read that according to what they believe in the Torah, the Prophets, and the Psalms, and look at what Yeshua said, I mean, it lines up beautifully. He didn't tell anybody to break the commandments. He didn't tell everybody to quit doing the Passover or quit breaking or not doing the Sabbath, all of these things. He never said that. It would have eliminated him from being the Jewish Messiah if he did say that, or Paul as an apostle if he said that. So, my friends, no one has the authority to tell the Father His commandments are done with. I think that is just craziness that Christianity has gotten off on that, that they think that they can tell the Father His commandments are done away with. Good luck with that when you stand before the King of Israel. Okay?

So, again, this hits right there. I love these passages. John 14:15. It's really beautiful if we understand it from the perspective, right? So, I'll read it one more time. It is written, "As the Father loved me, I have also loved you. Abide in my love. If, if, if you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love. And if you don't, you won't. Just as I have kept my Father's commandments, and I abide in his love." That's it, folks. I mean, that's the standard right there. He obeyed, and He wants us to obey. Again, He didn't go to the cross for a bunch of disobedient people. He went to the cross so that we would love Him and be obedient in all of these things. You know, it's the reverse of what people think. "These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full." This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends. You are my friends if, if you do whatever I command you." I mean, what a powerful statement, my friends. If you are keeping His commandments, you are the Master's friend. Think about that. I mean, that is how powerful. You are the friend of Yeshua. You are the friend of Yahweh. No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing. But I have called you friends, for all things that I have heard from my Father, I have made known to you. Okay? So, Yeshua spoke everything from the Father to the disciples. Christians, same way today, from the Father to us. Same way through Yeshua, through the blessed Holy Spirit to us. Okay? I can't believe that we're taking the Father out of this. Okay? Or not we, but they are. Christianity, they take the Father out of it. Okay? I mean, what is going down? I mean, the Father, the Son, through the blessed Holy Spirit. Okay? And that's what He says. The Holy Spirit will not speak anything but from the Father and the Son. Please read John 14:15. And that's going to be the commandments, my friends. Whenever we're baptized and we are born again, then here comes discipleship. Here comes the commandments. Here comes purification. Here comes all of these things. I mean, again, a lot of things break off of us whenever we receive that beautiful divine appointment of that time that we receive Yeshua as our Savior. A lot of things do break off, but then there's some things that you've got to go on the purification journey. Some of those things that whatever each one's personal whatever is, we've got to get through that. You see, and whatever, whatever it may be. Okay? So, again, purification is a process. It's not just one day, you know, it's done with. No, it's an incredible moment. Of course, things, new life, new beginnings. But then you go get really purified through the scriptures, through the Torah, worshiping the right ways, Sabbath, new moon, feast days, you name it. And really get down to it. Okay? So, people forget that. I mean, they think it's just a one-day or one-moment thing and then that's it. And that's why people fall away, okay? Because of that. And they don't have any guidance or direction from the church because discipleship is pretty much dead in the church the right way. Okay? We're not leading people to what Yeshua said to, "If you love Him, keep His commandments." What are His commandments? Well, of course, His commandments are Torah, Mount Sinai, what He told Moses at Mount Sinai through the Father, Son to Moses, right? So, we've got to really understand that they saw the King of Israel, Moses and the elders and all of these people, they drank and ate with the King of Israel. Well, no one's ever seen the Father's face. That was Yeshua. Exodus 24. Okay? Please go read it. It's a beautiful thing. Yeshua told the Jewish people in John chapter 8 that "Before Abraham was, I AM." Well, anyone who knows this in the Torah knows that "I AM" is in Exodus 3:14 when He told Moses, "I AM." So, again, Yeshua was in the beginning with Yahweh. John 1, of course, He was at Mount Sinai speaking to Moses. Kind of like Moses and Elijah speaking with Yeshua on the Mount of Transfiguration. It's really beautiful. We've got to understand that every time a divine appointment was needed by the Father, who did He send? Yeshua. Okay? Yes, He sent Michael. Yes, He sent Gabriel to people as well. But I'm talking about giving the Torah, the first coming events, the second coming events, conquering the promised land with Joshua, Joshua 5. Okay? So, we have to understand that it's really important to put that the cloud by day, the fire by night. Who was that? Yeshua. So, He's so again, if people believe that He's the fire by night, the cloud by day from from Mount, excuse me, from Exodus to Mount Sinai, 50 days, well, all of a sudden He just took a desert road out of there or something and left? Of course not. He was with them all the way, you know, the rock, you know, the water that came out of the rock. All of these things are Yeshua, you see. And so, we've got to really understand that, my friends, and we'll be better off as Jews and Christians, you know, the one new body and the one new man. Very important. John 14:15, very important chapters in the New Testament, really in the whole Bible. I think John 14 and 15 really tie in the importance of the Torah, Prophets, Psalms, and understanding that Yeshua had to say this. He has to get the people to come back to the Father's Torah. He has to. That's a prerequisite of being the Jewish Messiah. Isaiah 2, Micah 4, He's going to send it out from Jerusalem, from Zion, to the nations. The nations are going to get a heavy dose of the Torah whenever He returns. Okay? His Father's word out of His mouth, Mount Sinai, all the commandments. Christian, my Christian friends, we've got to really understand that come the millennial kingdom, it's going to be Torah, okay? And that's what it's going to be to the nations, to everybody. And whoever doesn't want to come on with that, just go read what happens with the striking the nations with a rod of iron and rule them with a rod of iron. Everybody, what does that mean? That means a righteous eternal dictatorship, everybody. So, people get really upset when I say that word, dictatorship. I guarantee you, it's going to be a righteous eternal dictatorship. His way, get out. Okay? In the promised land, it's going to be all of us there, the believing Jews and Gentiles, okay, that follow the commandments. And it's going to be Garden of Eden. It's going to be a beautiful thing. Ezekiel 36. Okay? But for the nations and all of these people in the nations, it's going to be a rod of iron, man. I mean, because they're not going to be in the kingdom, okay? The kingdom is Jerusalem, Israel, all of the land in Israel, the seed of David, the seed of Abraham. He's going to conquer all of it. Okay? And then He's going to allot it. What did He tell Daniel in Daniel 12 at the very beginning? "Go your way, Daniel." Go your way. Because Daniel was looking for the understanding of what he was just told. "Go your way, Daniel." Okay? "And you will rest and you will rise up to your allotment." What does that mean? The allotment, his land, peace in the Abrahamic covenant in the millennial kingdom. So, my friends, if we don't understand the covenants, we're not, or the feast days and all these things we talk about, we're not going to put all this together to understand Daniel's going to be raised up to receive his allotment at the end of the age in the promised land, and all of the ancients as well. Okay? And we are as well. How great is that?

Paul says this in Galatians 3:26-29. I mean, please read the entirety of Galatians 3. It's really beautiful. But what does he say in Galatians 23:26-29? "If you are a seed of Christ, which all of us are. We're born again believers. Then you are a seed of Abraham." Man, that's pretty powerful. "And you're heirs according to the promise." Well, what's the promise? Well, it's related to Abraham, the Abrahamic covenant. So, Paul tells all of us in Galatians 3:26-29 that you are a seed of Abraham if you are a believer. Okay? Okay, if you're a Christian, you are a seed of Abraham, and you're heirs according to the promise of the Abrahamic covenant because it's related to Abraham. Okay? So, again, the promised land is just as much your land as it is to the believing Jews. Okay? The believing Jews, the believing Gentiles, that's your land in the millennial kingdom. Okay? The ones who believe in Yeshua, the Messiah. It's really a beautiful thing. Okay? So, again, we have to understand this to understand what's going to occur in the future in the millennial kingdom. But also, if we're going to be a part of the millennial kingdom, I mean, what's it going to be? It's going to be His Father's commandments. It's going to be the Torah, everybody. I tell people all the time, my Christian friends are not going to be the Gentiles are not going to be really understanding how Jewish the millennial kingdom is going to be. I mean, it's going to be 100% Jewish. Okay? So, anyone who has a problem with that, they need to go back and read what the Jewish writers, all of them said in the Holy Bible, including John 14:15, because he was Jewish as well. So, we've got to understand what we're going to be into so that we get the right heart posture and not be against some of these things that we're seeing. "Oh, it's a Jewish thing." "Oh, it's a Jewish thing." "Oh, it's a Jewish thing." Yeah, it is a Jewish thing. It's a God thing, number one, but it is a Jewish thing because He chose Him to go through that. Okay? So, we have to realize these things, my friends. And it's just again, that's just the order of it. And people hate order. I know people do hate order. Not all of you, but people in general hate order. And God is very orderly, okay, with the everlasting covenants, the Abrahamic, the Davidic, and the New Covenant. And we must understand that, my friends.

But that goes into the Rash, my friends. Okay. In this incredible portion of scripture, Yeshua testifies that we are not only His servants to Him, we are His friends if we follow Him and His commandments. It is really that simple. And it's the overall theme from Genesis to Revelation. "If you love me, keep my commandments." We even find this concept written in the book of Revelation, the final book of the Holy Scriptures. It is written, "Blessed are those who do the commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may enter through the gates into the city." Amazing, right? Accordingly, according to this passage, John records that we can only partake of the tree of life if we do His commandments. See, we've spoken about this on the channel before. Revelation 22:14-16. The end of the Bible is just like the beginning of the Bible. Okay? He'll declare the end from the beginning, and from ancient times not yet fulfilled, in Isaiah 54. I believe that's where that is. But anyhow, "Blessed are those who do His commandments, all of you, that you will have the right to the tree of life and you may enter the gates into the city of the New Jerusalem." Look at the blessing. And now here comes the curse. But outside, I didn't include it, but outside are the dogs. It says that. And everyone who practices a lie or falsehood. Okay? So, please understand that sorcery, falsehood, and all that. So, that's very important to understand as a Christian believer that we have to keep the commandments. There are very blessings with that, but also much cursing, curses with that as well. It goes back into what the Torah says: blessings or curses. Blessings or curses. So, whenever you see "Blessed are those," then you can say "Cursed are those" as well, on the opposite side, because that's the way the Torah works, right? And that's the way God's message works. And "Blessed are those who do His..." through the gates into the glorious city, the New Jerusalem. But outside, if you keep reading, Revelation 22, are the dogs and the sorcerers and anyone who practices falsehood. Okay? According to this passage, John records that we can only partake of the tree of life if we do His commandments. I mean, that's a very, very important passage to really meditate upon and pray upon if someone's not keeping the Sabbath, not keeping the feast days, not keeping the ways of Yahweh. I think it's very important for someone to spend time with that scripture and many other scriptures, John 14:15 as well, just with the New Testament scriptures. If one is listening to this and says, "You know what, that's all Old Testament. That's all whatever." Go read the New Testament. Go read John 14 and 15 and see what He says. And then, what are His commandments? What are His commandments? Are they in the New Testament? I don't, I mean, "Love your neighbor," He says. But what are His commandments? They're in what He spoke out to Moses. Okay? What did He tell Moses in Exodus 19? He said, "I'm going to make the people believe you, Moses, forever. The ones who are true believers. I'm going to make you believe, believe Moses forever." John 5, what does He say? Yeshua, what does He say? He says this. It is so amazing. John 5 is located right after John 3 and John 4, obviously. But why I say that is because John 3 was to the Jew, Nicodemus, and then John chapter 4 was to the Gentile, the Samaritan woman. And then John 5, okay, He went to the Jew, went to the Gentile, and then John 5, He says, "If you're not going to believe Moses," okay, think about that. He went to the Jew and the Gentile. Now He's talking to everybody in general. He says that. He says, "If you're not going to believe Moses, then you're not going to believe someone who's risen from the dead," talking about himself. So, all of my Christian friends, if you don't believe Moses, you're not going to believe Yeshua. Period. That's what the Master says. So, I'm just quoting what He said in John 5. So, we have to understand, we have to follow what He told Moses in the commandments. And yes, it is a Jewish thing. But you are grafted into that Jewish thing. Okay? Whether people like it or not, you're grafted into the Jewish kingdom, okay, that He's going to restore back to Israel. And He mentions that in the New Testament in Acts 1:6-7. So, even in the New Testament, we can show everybody about the commandments, and nothing has changed because if it did, then you got problems. Okay? You got problems with the New Testament if it did change the message. It did not change the message. Okay? It continued the message with the Messiah. Okay? The prophesied Messiah and what His expectations were, what His standards were, what His values were, and that was only from the Father. Okay? Period. And all Christians would probably agree with that. But then go check out the way that you're worshiping Him. Okay? If you agree with that. If you don't agree with it, you don't agree with it. Go read the Bible again. But if you do agree with it, then here, let's go, you know, and it's okay. I mean, I had to repent. It took me four decades to come to the truth. Four decades to come to the truth. And that's not the point. Even if it takes you till 90 to come to the truth, cross over. Hundred, cross over. We've got to cross over to the other side, you know, as believers, as true believers, as just like the Mount Sinai priestly kingdom, okay? A holy nation, a kingdom of priests, you know, that's what we've got to be. And there's no kingdom of priests and a holy nation without God's commandments in the Torah. There's no way. You're talking about a paganistic nation. Yes. A whatever nation. Yes. But not a holy nation, not a set-apart people. A holy kingdom is only loving God and loving His commandments, as it says throughout the entire Holy Bible. What does it say from Genesis to Revelation? "Those who love God and keep His commandments." It just didn't say love God. It said to keep His commandments all throughout Genesis to Revelation. Even in the book of Revelation, at the last three and a half years, Revelation 12, what does it say? He goes after the ones, okay? After the Antichrist, after the Jewish people, the wise ones flee to the mountains like Yeshua commanded them to in the three and a half years, Matthew 24. Then what happens? Okay, I mean, we've got to really understand and put that together. So, we've got to realize Satan's coming, or Antichrist will come after the ones who love Yeshua and keep the commandments. Just like Revelation 12:6 and Revelation 13 says, he's coming after the ones. If someone's keeping the commandments, you are a danger to Satan and his is what he wants to do on the earth. Okay? Christianity right now is not, he's not worried about. Why would he be worried about Christianity right now? I mean, they're not keeping the commandments. So, Satan, he ain't worried about that. He's worried about you. He's worried about all the people who are keeping the commandments. Okay? Because you are the danger, you know, because again, love God and keep His beautiful commandments. Amen.

Yeshua is the perfect example and illustration of the letter Rash, and He demonstrates how we should live and conduct our lives. It begins and ends with love. Love. We must humble ourselves like a Rash with our heads and our bodies bent down in honor, love, and respect for the Creator, Yeshua the Messiah. He is our Creator as well as our Messiah. And there is not a greater servant than Him, because His life was totally and completely full of servantthood. It is written, "Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give His life as a ransom for many." Amen. Of course, Messiah is our perfect example to follow and imitate. Therefore, we too should serve people instead of expecting to be served by others. There's so much blessing and liberation when it comes to giving back to another individual who is in need. This is paramount and is such a transformation or paradigm shift to make and receive into our own personal lives. You know, I know we can all probably agree with this that, you know, of course, everybody likes to receive. That's just human nature. But if you do serve your friends, if you do serve your family, if you do serve mankind and whatever gifts that you do have, there's no greater satisfaction than that. Okay? I would just speak of it personally, you know, personally speaking, that, you know, God has blessed me with a lot of things as far as in the past with business and all these things, but none of it compares to what we're doing now. Okay? And I'm not saying, whatever. I'm not saying that in any kind of arrogant way. I can do a lot more, and I need to do a lot more. But at the same time, I can see the satisfaction that I get from the world compared to doing the work of Yahweh, you know, in my own little spiritual gifts or whatever, you know, there's a huge difference in that, you know. And again, I thank God all the time for whatever blessings He does give me. At the same time, there's a huge difference in worldly satisfaction and money and all these things, achievements and awards and all this stuff. Okay, great. Congratulations. But there is something else on the spiritual side about doing the Great Commission, you know, being doing our part in God's kingdom, using our spiritual gifts, helping other people through whatever it may be. You know, it doesn't have to just be the Great Commission. It could be helping someone change a tire, helping someone do whatever it may be out of the goodness of our heart. So, you know, we've got to get back to that. We've got to get back to loving God and loving our neighbor because He says at the end of the age that the love of many will grow cold. And certainly, when you look around, it's really there. It's really there. The love of many have grown cold. And I'm really not talking about the believers. I'm talking about the non-believers. I'm talking about the believers. I'm talking about God's people who say they're Christians and say they're, you know, observant Jews and all these things that look at where we are right now. And it's not a pretty picture. I don't, I'm not trying to be negative. I'm trying to be honest and realistic that we have let down God tremendously. You know, the Jews and the Christians have, okay, the Jewish people have, and now the Christians have. We've let down Yahweh tremendously because if we haven't, then the world would not look the way that it looks, okay, under our watch, okay? We wouldn't have all this murder all over the place with our abortion and also homosexuality and all of these things that we see across the world. Across the world, including Israel, including America. So, we wouldn't be seeing all that. So, we've let down Yahweh tremendously. So, I'm not really sure what other people are thinking, but how in the world do we think that God's going to bless the nation of Israel or the nation of America or the nation of Europeans or whatever, if we're acting like we're acting? He's not going to do that. And that's why the world is just exploding in front of our eyes. No matter where you look in Europe and the Middle East, of course, America, Latin America, Central America, you look wherever. And you're talking about a lot of people who are suffering right now. You know, go look at Africa. Go look at the Christians being martyred over in Africa. You know that it's just, it's just the time. I'm not trying to be negative, just realistic when you look at it. So, yes, I think we have to get back to the Rash, get back to humility, to get back on our faces on the ground and repent, you know, for whatever we need to repent for individually, but also as a nation wherever one is located, because any nation one wants to bring up, I'm sure they're having the same problems as we're facing with all the major nations that we have right now. So, again, friends, just being honest with you, but we got to get back to that. We got to get back to serving other people, loving other people, not being so selfish, you know, serving people, you know. So, I think that's kind of lost its way. Kind of like discipleship. Disciplehip has lost its way, you know. So has the Great Commission, and so has servantthood, which is the Great Commission pretty much. But servantthood is serving people, you know, taking care of loved ones, taking care of parents, taking care of children, taking care of whoever, taking care of our next-door neighbor. We've got to get back to loving people. And I think we can all agree with that. Not all of us, but just in general, as the world, as believers, as Jewish people, we've got to get back to loving people. You know, love conquers all. You know, to overcome evil with good, you know, and not just, okay, someone did me like this, I got to go get them back. You know, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. That's what I'm about. I mean, we've got to get out of that because, I mean, goodness gracious, it's like the laws of the jungle is what they call it. And that's where we are right now. Especially with our Middle Eastern friends over there. They're in the laws of the jungle. Everything goes. No one cares, whatever, you know, about other human beings at all over in the Middle East. And pretty much in the world, but especially in the Middle East, they've got to get back to loving one another, or trying their best to love one another, because all I see is everybody wants war and terror and murder and revenge, and we're going to do all of them. Christians, Jews, and Muslims, all of them, that I see most of them over there are going to go for, "Let's go, let's go at it." You know? So, again, and I say, let them go at it, you know, but for the rest of us who want to live in civilization, you know, peace, let's love one another, you know, let's love one another, you know. And I love the Middle Eastern people. I think everybody knows that. That's why I give them a hard time because it's unbelievable their attitudes and their heart positions are there towards their neighbor. All of them, really, all. When I say all of them, all three major religions is what I'm talking about. Not every single person over there. The religions over there overall need to do a heck of a lot better job than what they are doing right now. But my friends, just like Yeshua said, it all comes down to love. It begins and it ends with love. We must humble ourselves like the Rash with our heads and bodies bent down in honor, love, and respect for the Creator, Yeshua. He is our Creator as well as our Messiah. And there's no greater servant than Him, completely full of servantthood, and ours should be as well. It is written, "Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give His life as a ransom for many." Of course, Messiah is our perfect example to follow and imitate. Therefore, we too should serve people instead of expecting to be served by others. There is so much of a blessing and liberation when it comes to giving back to another individual who is in a time of need. This is paramount and is such a transformation or paradigm shift to make and receive into our own personal lives. Amen.

It is written, "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God." If we don't have a renewed mind, then we're going to be always in doubt of what God has in store for us, the perfect will of God. Okay? We've got to be, we can't be conformed to the world. Unfortunately, today, we have our Christian friends and Jewish friends who are conformed to the world. I used to be conformed to the world as well. Okay? And we all have to come out of it. We've got to repent and come out of it and not go back in and do our part in God's kingdom. You know, it's really that simple. You know, we all have to make that choice. We all have to come out of the world and renew our mind that we may be able to prove what is good and acceptable and the perfect will of God in our own personal lives. If we don't reform our mind, if we're not renewing our mind, then we're going to be conformed to the world. Okay? The Apostle Shaul warns us not to be conformed to the world, but be transformed by the renewing of our minds, which is done daily by the blessed Holy Spirit. Amen. Remember, Satan is after our minds. That's the reason the crown of thorns was placed on Yeshua's head. The mind, the Rash is talking about the head, the pictograph. But greater is He who lives in us than he who tempts with worldly lust. Okay? So, just remember that we have the Holy Spirit inside of us, you know, guiding us and directing us, but also He will convict us as well. I mean, of course. Okay? So, the Holy Spirit will lead us into this if we renew our mind. What does that mean? Renew our mind in the scriptures. Renew our mind every day in the scriptures. Okay? From whatever, wherever you are in life, and then put that together, and then you will have a renewed mind by going through the scriptures. I tell people this all the time, that if we pray the scriptures, if we pray the word, if we are in the word, pray over, in the word, then we're going to renew our mind. You know, if we turn some of these things off that we all listen to sometimes, radios, TVs, people, we've got to cut some of these things down a little bit, take it down a notch and get more in solitude with the Most High God, and we will be able to hear, remember? Okay? So, again, we have all of these anointings throughout the summer of hearing and also seeing as well. And this month, we're into the hearing month, right? Israel, you know, because we're in the month of Av. So, it's a hearing month for that we have to hear and understand so that we can be in the right alignment with the Most High God. Okay? Let us remember to put on the armor of Elohim every day as we journey on our spiritual purification process. Okay?

So, here's the pictograph. Every letter, as you guys know, has a pictograph as well as a formation of the character. Moses would have written the Rash like this: the man's head. And then we write it like this. Okay? Just the modern-day form is here, and then Moses would have written it like this. Okay? So, the pictograph of Rash resembles a head and is connected to Rosh, which means the head of the year, as in Rosh Hashanah, the New Year on the Jewish civil calendar. Okay? So, again, we're about to get into the Feast of Trumpets here, Yom Teruah, in about 35 days, I believe. So, again, that's called the head of the year. Nissan's the head of the year as well, you know, because they start both calendars. Prophetically, a rash, who represents a poor person, can become a Rosh, or head of people, once Yah lifts him up at His appointed time. So, again, Rash means the head of of something, the head of the civil year, Rosh Hashanah. Okay? And in this case, he's relating it to Rash and Rosh. So, prophetically, a rash, who represents a poor person bent over, in need, can become a Rosh, lifted up, head of the people, once Yahweh lifts him up at His appointed time. So, again, just like these other letters that we had with the double formations, where we had the first letter was a humble letter, the second letter was exaltation once we get humbled, if you will. Same thing here. A rash represents a poor person can become a Rosh, which means a head of people, once Yahweh lifts him up at His appointed time. So, just like we've seen with other letters, humbleness is the main aspect of this letter.

In the book of Genesis, we find Rash in a great light. In the beginning, or "Bereshit," the letter Rash is a part of the formation of it. Okay? So, again, in the book of Genesis, we find Rash in a very great light. In the beginning, or "Bereshit," the first words of the Bible, the letter Rash is a part of the formation of that because of the letter R, you know, "Bereshit," it's got a "Rash" in it right at the beginning. This correlates to the ordinal number of Rash, the number 20, which represents expectations for new beginnings and a fresh start. Okay? So, again, this correlates to the ordinal number of Rash, which is the number 20, which represents expectations for new beginnings and a fresh start. May we receive the revelation and anointing of the letter as we bow our heads in worship like the Rash. Praise and give gratitude to the One higher than every other name, Yeshua HaMashiach. Hallelujah. So, again, again, when we say "bow our heads," that's what the Rash, the Rash, bow our heads in humility. Okay?

So, now let's go to the devotional of Rash. Every Hebrew letter will have a devotional. This is in the book, by the way, "The Cross to the Crown" book. The book behind me. Well, this goes through all of these as well. The devotional inside of the book goes with the Hebrew letters, the Aleph. So, this is the devotional of Rash, or R. In our devotional, we will discover a beautiful yet prophetic story of servantthood. The story of Yeshua washing His disciples' feet. It has tremendous layers of meaning, but we will focus on the purification aspect of it. As we continue to set apart ourselves on our journey of the cross to the crown, as we begin to close our journey, let us remember to pick up our cross and follow Him, and only Him.

It is written, "Now before the Feast of Passover, when Yeshua knew that His hour had come that He should depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end. And supper being ended, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray Him. Yeshua, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, that He had come from God and was going to God, rose from supper and laid aside His garments, took a towel and girded Himself." Hours before Yeshua was crucified for all of our sins at Passover, He provided the disciples a final lesson on servantthood until His moment of ultimate servantthood at the cross. It is written, "Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends." Although the Master knew the Father had given Him all things into His hands and that He was going to ascend to heaven, He still provided one last illustration of what He commands of all of us: to humble ourselves and to love one another. It is written, "This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you."

As the story continues, Yeshua literally humbles Himself to show the disciples in a physical form the essence of humility and servantthood. It is written, "After that He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and to wipe them with the towel with which He had girded. Then He came to Simon Peter. And Peter said to Him, 'Lord, are you washing my feet?' And Yeshua answered and said to him, 'What I am doing, you do not understand now, but you will know after this.'" So, once Messiah poured water into a basin and began to wash their feet as an example of love and servantthood, notice how John writes that Yeshua wiped their feet with the towel that He had girded Himself with, which signifies the girdle of truth, Ephesians 6, which is the word of Elohim, which is Yeshua. I mean, this is very powerful, friends, to really discover these devotions or these stories in the Bible with the Hebrew letter that's really associated with it. It's really amazing. So, again, Yeshua had the towel. Remember, He girded Himself with a towel, and He took that towel from where He was girded, and He washed the disciples' feet. Okay? And that puts on basically the girdle of truth. Remember in Ephesians 6, it says the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness, the sword of the Spirit, guard me in Your truth. And that's what Yeshua was girding the disciples in was in His truth of the Father's commandments. Okay? So, this is a pretty powerful scene when we look at it this way, of what Yeshua was doing. He humbled Himself, of course, and He was being the servant to them, and He wanted them to understand the picture that He was painting. And they did receive that picture after the events happened with the first coming events. That's what happened to the disciples, and they turned the world upside down after that, as it is recorded, I believe, in the book of Acts. So, my friends, this is very powerful. We'll read it again just to understand it.

"But once Messiah poured out or poured the water into the basin and began to wash their feet as an example of love and servantthood, notice how John writes that Yeshua wiped their feet with a towel that He was girded by, which signifies the girdle of truth, which is the word of Yahweh, who is Yeshua." Amen. Amen. Let us recall that Yeshua said that He would send the Holy Spirit to teach and remind us of all things, which surely points to the word of Elohim. Assuredly, the Holy Spirit is our perfect teacher and witness of Yeshua and His ways and commandments. Just like He says in John 15, verse 26, He told the people, He said that basically the Holy Spirit, the Comforter, will come, and He will not speak on His own accord. He will speak whatever is spoken by the Father and the Son. Okay? So, again, my Christian friends, my Jewish friends, whoever friends, understand Genesis to Revelation. All of it or none of it. Okay? All of it or none of it. We've got to understand that as the scene continues to unfold, the Apostle Peter chimes in on the conversation, as normal. It is written, "Peter said to Him, 'You shall never wash my feet.' And Yeshua answered him, 'If I do not wash you, you have no part with me.' Simon Peter said to Him, 'Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my feet.'" This fascinating dialogue between Yeshua and Peter provides us great insight into how important it is to continue a spiritual purification journey. He has to wash and cleanse us, and sometimes that is not such a comfortable thing to go through. But He is, He is striving with us to go deeper than ever before with Him. In other words, at first, beginning a purification journey seems difficult because Yah is showing us what we need to repent of and get out of our life. This can seem difficult at first, but remember, freedom is never easy, including spiritual freedom. And we have to make sure that we have a pure and clean heart, which means to die to ourselves every single day.

It is written, "Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Make me hear joy and gladness, that the bones you have broken may rejoice. Hide your face from my sins and blot out all of my iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O Yah, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me away from your presence, and do not take your Holy Spirit from me. In the name of blood Yeshua, amen, amen, and amen." In this beautiful repentance letter penned by King David, may we have the same favor as he did, because although we were once like scarlet, Yeshua washes and cleanses us as white as snow. We win with the blood of the Lamb. Cleanse, wash, purify, and refine. This is the desire of the Father's heart as we journey from the cross to the crown. Okay? Look how beautiful this is with King David. I want to go back and look how beautiful this is. Okay? And again, I tell people all the time whenever we talk about the journey, the purification journey, I call it the cross to the crown journey. But whatever you want to call it, it's not easy to start this process or even to go through the process. That's why most people don't want to go through the process of purification, of refinement, of understanding, of knowledge, of wisdom, so that we can be the light at the end of the age. And we can have knowledge, have wisdom, have understanding so we can help other people go search it out. And then they can go search out what we have spoken to them. Okay? So, this is really paramount. I tell people all the time, following Yah, okay? And following His days, following the Sabbath, all of these things, it is not going to be as easy as people might think because Satan does not want you to be on those days, okay? Satan wants you to go like all the rest of the replaced theology, whether it's Jews or Gentiles, okay, Christians. So, he wants everybody to be in replacement theology, and he's done a pretty good job of putting both the Jews and the Christians in replacement theology, so to speak, to their own accord. And so, again, that's what he's trying to do. Daniel 7 says he's come to change the times and the seasons. He comes to change the calendar, come to change the seasons, come to change the feast days, kind of like Antiochus Epiphanes IV did, right? And all these ancient people who hated the Jewish people. So, we've got to have the heart posture to stay true to it, okay? As a friend of God. I mean, how many people want to be a friend of the Most High? I know I do. You want to be a friend of the Most High? Then follow the commandments, and you'll be a friend of the Most High. It's really that simple. Okay? You don't have to pay a hundred grand to put hands on you like some other pastors try to get people to do. You don't have to do any of that. You know, your money is no good in the kingdom of heaven, so to speak. It is, but it's not. Just please keep me in context. It doesn't cost anything, you know, for all of these things that some people charge a lot for. So, again, my friends, look at what it says right here with King David. "Purge me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow." Make me hear joy and gladness, that the bones you have broken may rejoice. Hide your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O Yah, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me away from your presence, and do not take your Holy Spirit from me. In the name of blood Yeshua. Amen. Amen and amen. Very amazing.

One thing I'd like to mention before we go forward is hyssop. The herb hyssop. King David just did not write this just to write it. Let me just see what kind of herb I can put in there and it's all good. No. Think about it. "Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean." When did they use hyssop? Think about Exodus 12, okay? Passover. On the Passover door, they put blood and hyssop on there, okay? The actual application of it, okay? Not just whatever hyssop and blood on the lentils, okay? And they were saved from the death angel. Okay? So, King David wrote this for a certain reason, okay? "Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean." Now, for all of you, everybody out there, go look up hyssop. Go look up hyssop and go look at what it's for. "Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean. Wash me in the blood, and I will be redeemed." Basically, right? It's what the prophet Isaiah said as well, right? In Isaiah 1, "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be washed as whiter than snow." And that's what King David was doing. So, again, the blood of Messiah washes us, and then the hyssop will cleanse us. Okay? Physically and literally. Like, I use hyssop as well, literally and physically, application, anointing, and also ingesting with a tea. Okay? So, please look it up. Now, when I say that, be careful with hyssop. You can only drink about a cup or two, okay? That's it. Okay? A big cup, a cup about this big, that's it, because it will, go read about it, okay? So, there's a reason why King David said that. So, my friends, those who are in herbs or not into herbs, please get into this herb, the hyssop herb, because it will help you tremendously with digestive situations, autoimmune diseases, also with skin, you know, rashes and stuff. It's beautiful. It's a beautiful herb, and you don't have to go get some Benadryl to go wipe all over you with an ointment. You can go get that. Go get hyssop and go get, go look at it with drinking it, okay? And be careful with it because it's a very strong herb, okay? And of course, I'm not a doctor. I'm not any of that stuff at all. It's just something that's helped me in life, and I just want to pass that on. And there's a reason King David said, "Purge me with hyssop." Okay? And I will be clean, okay? Because he, that's what he did. Literally, he did that. Okay? "Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow." Okay? Very beautiful prayer. Psalm 51. We know that that was a repentance letter penned by him from Bathsheba. So, we all know what that was. But I just wanted to mention that because a lot of people are struggling with autoimmune diseases and don't take my word for it. Please go do your own research and pray about it. But hyssop is one of those things that will help you tremendously, used in the right manner, of course, as well as frankincense, as well as myrrh, as well as all of the biblical herbs are very important. Okay? The holy anointing oil, Exodus 30, very important. Okay? The application of those strong herbs are very important. Cinnamon is a great herb, okay, for inflammation and all that. So, God told them to grab these herbs for a reason, right? And hyssop, my friends, we'll just go back to tonight's lesson. Hyssop is very important, and King David wrote it for a reason. It was on the Passover doors as well. Okay? So, hyssop is a very important herb in the Bible for cleanliness, cleaning, and it will cleanse you tremendously. Okay? Just be careful with it.

Okay. Philippians 2:12-13. "Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure." So, again, I'll read that again in Philippians 2:12-13. "Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling." So, think about that. Look at what Paul says here, everybody, my Christian friends. He says, "As you have always obeyed," okay, my Christian friends, obedience to God's commandments is what Paul is saying, "not in his presence only, but much more in Paul's absence. Work out your own salvation with just grace only." He didn't say that. He said, "Work it out with fear and trembling," is what the Apostle Paul says. Okay? Work our salvation out with fear and trembling. Fear, the fear of Adonai is one of the seven spirits in Isaiah 11. I'm not talking about to have a bad fear of Him, okay? A condemning fear, but have a reverent fear of Him. Revere Him, okay? And we have forgotten how to revere the Most High. I think that's pretty common. Okay? The Jews and the Christians, all of us have forgotten. We all have forgotten how to revere the Most High and to fear Him. Not in a bad fear, a holy fear of who He truly is. We've got to get back to that. Okay? We've got, we all know about grace. We got grace. We've got to get back to the holy fear of Adonai Tzvaot and the holy fear of our Elohim in heaven. We've got to get back to that because He's going to put it inside of us. If not that holy fear that we have of Him, not bad fear, the reverence, okay, the goosebumps, okay, the holy bumps, whatever you want to call them, the Holy Spirit coming upon you, that holy fear of the Most High God. That's what He's looking for. And unfortunately today, we have all lost it as Jews and Christians. Okay? We don't have it. We don't, as a group of believers, we don't. We just don't. I think that that's a, that's not a far stretch out there. And we've got to get back to that because having a holy fear of Adonai, a righteous fear of Adonai, not an unhealthy fear of Adonai, that will put you in the right position with the Most High. Once we have that, once we get to that point of that holy fear, He is our friend. We're, and obviously He's our God and our King and the respect, but also He's our friend. We're keeping His commandments. We're walking with Him. Then you know you're on your way on that journey. Okay? None of us will arrive until we get glorified. But goodness gracious, He wants us all to keep washing our garments until we get there and try to get as spotless as we possibly can with the effort it takes to do that. Okay? It's not just about, oh, I believe in Jesus. No, it's about the effort we put with Him. Okay? The works. The works. People don't know this. Go read James. Go read Yeshua in Revelation. He's coming to give rewards for your what? Your faith? No, for your works is what He says in Revelation. For works is what He says in all the other accounts as well. So, He's coming. I think Paul even says that He's coming to give works. Now, are we saved by our works? No, we are not. We're saved by the blood of the Lamb. But once we get saved by the blood of the Lamb, then He wants us to get up and do our spiritual gifts and whatever He's called us to do. Okay? Saddle up and go. You know, so that's what He wants. Okay? And that's where we've lost it. Everybody just believes, "All I have to do is just believe in Jesus. I'm going to heaven." Okay, maybe so, maybe not. That's up to Him. But at the same time, for sure, if you love Yeshua and keep His commandments, you don't have to worry about whether you're getting into the pearly gates or not, you're in. Okay? Okay. The ones you have to worry about is the ones who are not following His commandments.

And I'm not saying they're not getting in. That's up to Him. But you've got to follow His commandments. It's all throughout the Bible. I would err on the side of caution with that. Number one, you love Him. So if you love Him, this is not anything I love. Like if I love my mother, I'm going to do whatever for her. I love my father, I'm going to do whatever for him. I love God, I'm going to be on the days. I'm going to be on the Sabbath. I'm going to be on the new moon. Because I have to? No, because I love Him. He loves me, I love Him. What kind of relationship is it if I have to do these things? "Oh my gosh, I've got to rest for the Sabbath. I mean, what a terrible commandment. I guess I'm going to start rebelling," which most Christians do and don't keep it. "Oh gosh, you want me to rest and keep it holy? You know, rest with my family, my friends, with all of you guys. Oh, what a terrible commandment. Let's all rebel like all the rest of the Christians do." That's a terrible attitude to have. We want to do it. I look forward to Shabbat for many reasons. I look forward to Passover. I can't wait for Yom Teruah. I can't wait for Yom Kippur. I can't wait for the righteous rendered verdict. That's the expectation we must have because we're friends of Him. We're in a relationship with Him. We're obeying. Are we perfect? Of course, we're not perfect. But that's where the grace comes in because the heart posture is for Him. The heart posture is for the commandments, not, "Let me see how I can break every commandment by reading Paul out of context." It's a whole difference of understanding that unfortunately, today Christianity does not have that in their theology to teach people. They didn't teach it to you, they didn't teach it to me, my parents, your parents, whoever's parents. And whatever it is, what it is, but goodness gracious, let's all try to do better, you know, with worshiping Him in spirit and in truth in your life. Again, it might not be easy, but Yeshua's life wasn't easy. The prophets' lives weren't easy. The disciples' lives weren't easy. And He said it was not going to be easy. So, if we're on easy street, then no, that's not the ticket. The ticket is travailing through this world, doing our part in His kingdom just like He did, and just like the disciples did, and just like the prophets did. You're going to be persecuted. You're going to be hated just like He was and just like the prophets. And I say hallelujah about that. I say hallelujah if you're persecuted because you know, just like we read in the beginning, be thankful when you're persecuted for righteousness' sake. And if you're following His Father's ways for righteousness' sake and you're standing up for the truth, man, you're in good company with Jeremiah. You're in good company with Moses. You're in good company with Yeshua. You're in good company with the disciples. You're in good company with all of them because they were hated for the true message of Yeshua and the commandments. It's really crazy, but that's what it's about.

As the story continues, Yeshua said to him, "He who is bathed needs only to wash his feet, but he is completely clean. And you are clean, but not all of you." For He knew who would betray Him. Therefore, He said, "You are not all clean." So when He had washed their feet, taken His garments, and sat down again, He said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you? You call me Teacher and Lord, and you say well, for so I am. If I, then your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you. Most assuredly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master, nor is he who is sent greater than he who sent him." Talking about the Father. "If you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them." Again, there's that word: "if you do them." So again, my friends, He's speaking about washing feet. And basically, He's showing us an example to whether we wash feet or we're being a servant in another way to people. We have to serve people. We've got to go and do the Great Commission. Serve people. Number one, with Yeshua, with the commandments, and then obviously some of the things in life that they might need assistance with, whatever that may be, discipleship, whatever it may be. So that's what we've got to get back to. Can we recall when we've done something selfless for someone else? Something that we weren't required to do, we weren't commanded to do, we weren't ordered to do, but we did it because we love that human being? How many of us can say that? So, something that we need to search out. The resh is the head down in humility, but also to turn, is what the resh means as well. And we just have to have that accountability. What have I done lately for mankind? What have I done lately for my family, for my friends, for all of you, which are my friends? What have I done? So, we always have to check ourselves with that because a servant is always going to be checked as a servant. He's always going to have the mindset of serving people, not someone who always just takes, takes, takes, takes, takes, and takes some more. We all know those people, right? They just take, they don't give. We've got to be givers and lovers. I'm not saying to give away everything you own, like the people that were looking for the rapture last year, giving their cars away, giving their houses away, giving their bank accounts away. I wish I had their number. I'd have a lot more money now, maybe a home as well and a car. So, yeah, I wish I'd have known those people's numbers. I would have gone up there. I'm just kidding. I would have taken their money. I'd be like, "Are you out of your mind?" is what I would tell these people and showed them the shmita cycle and said, "Keep your money, man. Keep your money."

But anyhow, my friends, we've got to be servants. We all know that. And man, the human flesh is selfish, right? The human flesh is selfish. So, we've got to crucify that selfishness. All of us. I know I have it in me. I know I do. I'm trying to get it out of me, all of it out of me. That selfishness, and always be selfless. You know, when we're helping families, friends, another person, a stranger. A stranger is just as important as your friend. Maybe even more important to do it for a stranger, someone you don't know, than your own family or friends. So, my friends, the love of many has grown cold. It's really amazing to see that in a bad way of what Yeshua said and Paul said, but the love has gone out the window. It's a selfish world, as we all know. But we can't get caught up in that. We have to be caught up into what the Word of God says and what Messiah says and what the Holy Spirit is leading us to do. And that's to be a servant to the Most High, but also to our neighbor as well. So, it says to be a servant to righteousness. In the Bibles, it might say a slave to righteousness, and people might take that out of context, but He wants you to be a servant. He wants you to be shackled to Him in righteousness, in servantship, just like He did. God became flesh and was crucified for all of us. Just think about that. God, who did not have to come down, He came down to do what He did for all of mankind, to be crucified and resurrected. Totally amazing. So, the least thing that we can do is to be a servant of Him, and to be a servant of Him and to follow His Father's commandments will make you a friend of His. Right? And so, we all want to be a friend of His. And that's the only way one can be a friend of His is to follow His Father's commandments. And that's what John 14 and John 15 says as well.

As Messiah concludes His teaching, He explains to them by word and deed about loving our neighbor. After all, Yeshua declared it to be the second greatest commandment in Matthew chapter 6. Without the love of God, what do we have? Secondly, without the love of our neighbors on earth, what do we have? Does not one cooperate with the other? If Yeshua humbled Himself and showed us an example of servantship, then we must imitate His actions to the fullest and become zadiks, the righteous ones. 2 Timothy 5:1: "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Messiah Yeshua, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men, and being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore, God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every other name, that at the name of Yeshua every knee should bow, of those in heaven and those on the earth and those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Yeshua HaMashiach is Adonai, Lord, to the glory of Elohim the Father. Amen."

So, now let's go to Psalm 119. Psalm 119 is the longest chapter in the Holy Scriptures. It was written by King David in homage to Elohim's Aleph-Bet. He eloquently writes and gives each letter its rightful due, uncovering the richness of each one. In doing so, the man after God's own heart also highlights the importance of Torah, the instructions of God. It is believed by some that David desired to not only teach Solomon the Aleph-Bet, but also the deep spiritual understanding of each letter. Thus, one of the reasons Elohim blessed Solomon with great and unmatched wisdom. Certainly, deep calls unto deep, and we will be going through these on the rest of the letters as well. Psalm 119. So, Psalm 119 is the longest chapter in the Bible, and again, it goes into the alphabet. Every letter is in Psalm 119. It is written as homage to it. It has eight verses to each letter. All 22 letters. That's why it's the longest chapter in the Bible. And this is what King David wrote. And again, it's right after the Hallel Psalms, Psalm 113 through Psalm 118, which is the Hallel book of the feast days that we sing in spring and fall. So, it's the Hallel book. So, King David wrote this right after the Hallel. Where is it situated in the Bible? Right after the Hallel. So, it's just interesting. Psalm 118 is the crucifixion hymn about Messiah. Psalm 118 is, if you read the bottom of the passage. So, I find it very interesting that they put Psalm 119 right behind Psalm 118. And here we go. So, this is the homage to the letter Resh and also to God's instructions, the Torah. So, this is from King David, Psalm 119:153-160: "Consider my affliction and deliver me, for I do not forget Your Torah. Plead my cause and redeem me; Revive me according to Your word. Salvation is far from the wicked, for they do not seek Your statutes. Great are Your tender mercies, O Lord; Revive me according to Your judgments. Many of my persecutors and my enemies, yet I do not turn from Your testimonies. I see the treacherous, and I am disgusted, because they do not keep Your Torah. Consider how I love Your precepts; Revive me, Adonai, according to Your lovingkindness. The entirety of Your word is truth, and every one of Your righteous judgments endures forever and ever. Amen."

So, my friends, just like we always go through, this is very powerful coming from King David. No one would come against that. I'm going to say this tonight and two more times, but no one's going to come against this. The Apostle Paul would not come against King David. Actually, he quoted King David. Why would he come against him? He quoted Moses. Why would he come against him? So, we have to understand that Paul's going to be in alignment with Moses, with David, with Yeshua, with everybody. Because if he's not, then he'd be the only one that's not. So, again, it takes two witnesses to establish a matter. Paul is a servant of Yeshua, not the other way around. He's a servant of the Most High God, not the other way around. What does that mean? God is the lawgiver, not Paul. So, we've got to realize that there's only one lawgiver, and that's the Most High God. And Paul's going to be in alignment with that. And if one does not think he is in alignment with that, then please read Paul a different way, from the Torah, prophets, Psalms, and Gospels. Because too many Christians are reading Paul in the wrong way because they think Paul came to basically eliminate the commandments and Christians don't have to do anything. That's putting Paul as God, basically, is what that's doing. That's putting Paul above the Most High, saying that he had the authority to change these things. He did not. And again, he would have been the only writer in the Holy Bible that would tell people to break the commandments. He would have never done that. And he did not do that. So, Christian, my Christian friends need to quit reading him like that and go get educated about the Torah, the prophets, and the Psalms, and then go read Paul, and then Paul would make better sense because he's teaching and he's writing from a Torah-based gospel. He's writing from the understanding of the Torah, the prophets, the Psalms, and the Gospels. That's how he was writing his letters. Very awesome writing, if we understand how to read him right, read him the right way. If we're reading him from a replacement theology standpoint, then good luck. But if you're reading him from what he would have understood with the Torah, the prophets, the Psalms, and the Gospels, then you're going to read him in the right way. That's why I tell people, Paul should just be locked up away from people until people go get educated with the Torah of the prophets and Psalms. People shouldn't even be able to read Paul until they read that first. It should be a prerequisite to read because it is to read the Torah, prophets, Psalms, Gospels, and then go read Paul, and they'll have a different understanding of Paul instead of going to the New Testament first, which is wrong, trying to understand the New Testament without the Torah, the prophets, and the Psalms, or the Old Testament. We have to understand the original revelation, Torah, to understand everything. Isaiah 46:9-10 says this: "For I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, 'My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure.'" So, if we don't understand the beginning, how in the world are we going to understand the end? We're not. And that's why, in my opinion, the Jews and the Christians are out of alignment with the end of the age because we don't understand the Torah, the prophets, and the Psalms, and what Yeshua said, and then go to Paul, and then go to Revelation, right? So, we've got to get back to the proper reading of the Bible. And if we don't have the calendar, the feast days, the table of nations, and the covenants, welcome to replacement theology. That's simple. But if one has that, understands the basic understanding of the calendar, the basic understanding of the feast, the basic understanding of the covenants, the basic understanding of the nations that the prophets were prophesying about instead of all this stuff that people were saying, America, Russia, China, and everybody else in the world. No, it's all the 70 nations in Genesis 10. That's it. The beast kingdom, Antichrist kingdom is in Genesis 10, pretty much. If the nations aren't in Genesis 10, they're not in there. They're not in there. Will China, Russia, and America be involved? Yes, just on a very secondary level, just on a very support whoever you want with your money or whatever. They will not be involved because America is being run out of the Middle East. China has not shown any evidence that they want to get involved in the Middle East militarily. No evidence whatsoever. They'll support with intelligence, with missiles, with all this stuff, they'll send it to them. They will not get involved. They'll let the other people get involved. They're smart. We're not smart. They are smart. They haven't gone to war for 25 years trying to dethrone everybody in the Middle East. So again, when we look at the table of nations, we have to understand that these nations are the surrounding nations that have always hated Israel and hated the God of Israel. The Islamist today, that's who it is. It's pretty clear about the Abrahamic covenant.

So, my friends, take it from King David. Don't take it from me. Take it from King David, who Yeshua is going to sit on His everlasting throne forever. Do you think anybody's going to come against King David when Yeshua is sitting on His throne at the millennial kingdom? King David's going to be there. You think anybody's going to tell this is wrong, what King David is saying? Of course not. I mean, everything in the scriptures, we have to understand it, but in the right context of understanding. And Paul would never come across King David. Why would he come across King David, right? Or try to go against what he taught. "Consider my affliction and deliver me, O Adonai, for I do not forget Your Torah." How many Christians say that? "Plead my cause and redeem me." "Great are Your tender mercies, O Adonai. Revive me according to Your judgments. Many are my persecutors and my enemies. Yet I do not turn away from Your testimonies, from Your Torah. I see the treacherous and I'm disgusted because they do not keep Your word. Consider how I love Your precepts. Revive me, O Adonai, according to Your lovingkindness. The entirety of Your word is truth, and every one of Your righteous judgments endure how long? Forever. Amen and amen and amen."

Here's a prayer. I pray that you receive it. These are in the book as well, "The Cross to the Crown." But I pray that you take this with the letter Resh. May we Resh as we continue to set apart ourselves on our spiritual purification journey from the cross to the crown. As we wait on Yahweh's righteous rendered verdicts, let us bow our heads and get on our faces as we seek Him, giving thanks and praises to the One who will purify, redeem, and restore us to our proper calling in our personal lives. It is the letter of expectancy. Therefore, let us expect Yahweh to do wonderful and great things in our lives. Let's expect it. Speak it out and pray over it and use two or three scriptures to confirm a matter as He guides us into our new journey in life, our new beginnings from the cross to the crown. Amen. Amen and amen.

My friends, we are entering into some beautiful times right now with the month of Elul coming this Friday night. We've got 30 days or 29-30 days from there to get to the Feast of Trumpets. And that's where the verdicts are given. That's where the righteous rendered verdicts are given. If you're looking for answers to your prayers, if you're looking for decisions, if you're looking for strategies, whatever you're looking for, please understand how important this time is. As we get to the Feast of Trumpets, Yom Teruah, this is where all of the decisions are made, my friends. Whether you get a decision made on next April 2027 or next February 2027, the decision will be made during the 10 days of Awe. Please understand that. Please understand that that's the way it works. We can show you that in the Bible, that again, after the Feast of Trumpets to Yom Kippur for the year, if someone gets a verdict, whatever that may be, then it was established in the courts of heaven sometime during those 10 days this year, last year, year before, whatever it may be. So again, that's how it works. I've been on this journey for about 12 years now, and I can promise you that's how it works. Or I don't promise, I'm just saying that's the way it works. My "yeses" are "yeses," my "nos" are "nos." But anyhow, that's the way it works. I've seen some amazing things with it over and over. And that's why I wrote the book. I was led to write the book because of the experiences I've seen, family, friends, myself, whoever, with the calendar, with the days, with the righteous rendered verdicts, with all of these things that happened. My friends, that's the way it works. You can do your own research on that as well. Most rabbis would go along with that. Most sages would go along with that, that the books are open and sealed. Open on Trumpets, sealed on Yom Kippur, out for delivery. So, this is an important time. That's why again, I was about to pull up this image and got sidetracked. One second, please. If I can find it. Here we go. That's why it's important. Maybe this would be better for you when you look at it, my friends. But this is where we are. We're in the last week of the month of Av, the fifth month. We're about to enter into Friday night, the month of Elul. That is the month of repentance, is what it's called. And that's where everybody repents. Why? Because the books are being opened on Tishrei 1 to Tishrei 10. So, this is called the month of repentance because the next month is when the books are open. So, we've got to understand that. And that's how powerful it is. The courts are open in heaven on Tishrei 1 to Tishrei 10. The way that we understand it now, the first day of the seventh month to the 10th day of the seventh month, the books are open. And again, pray into it. We'll be doing a video on this like we do all other years. After we do the Feast of Trumpets, night number two, the second day of Elul, of the 10 days, we'll be doing a Courts of Heaven prayer. Because I feel like it's that important to pray into the courts, not only individually, but also as a corporate group, whoever wants to join us on that. And again, pray into the courts on the Feast of Trumpets to Yom Kippur. Ask for the righteous rendered verdict. Of course, repent. Of course, cleanse all of these things. Pray for whoever you need to pray for as well. Open their book as well. My friends, you have the power to pray for other people. Get their book, or when I say open their book, open their book in heaven. Everybody's got a book up in heaven. So, when you're in the courts of heaven in your prayer time, whatever you want to call it, you can petition their book and pray for them. You know, whoever God leads you to do it. Pray for America. Pray for Israel. Pray for whatever country that you're living in or that God puts on your heart to pray for. So, it's a very powerful time. Joseph was released on the Feast of Trumpets in Genesis 41, at the beginning of a shmita cycle, by the way. But he was released on the Feast of Trumpets because that's when the verdicts are given. On the Feast of Trumpets to Yom Kippur, sealed. So, Joseph was released at the last day before, I mean, right at the Feast of Trumpets because again, that was the appointed time. And how do we know that? Because seven good years, seven bad years, it started a seven-year cycle of good, and then seven bad years. So, if we don't understand the Feast of Trumpets, if we don't understand the seven-year shmita cycle, we're not going to understand what Genesis 41 says. "At the end of two full years," what does that mean? At the end of two full years, Joseph was released on the Feast of Trumpets. Pretty powerful. So, again, we can look at these things like that's how important it is. How about Nebuchadnezzar? Daniel chapter 4. From Nebuchadnezzar, the angel told him, Daniel told him that he was going to be exiled for seven years until he comes to his right mind with the Most High. And then what did he do for the next year? Bragging, but all this arrogance and all these things. And then on the Feast of Trumpets, the angel came down, "Your kingdom has been weighed, you're going to be exiled." I mean, that's on the Feast of Trumpets. That's where the verdicts are given. And that's why I tell people, what we have seen the last two years with these, excuse me, let me see if I can find these now. The two years that we have seen these has been very important. The solar eclipses we've had on Tishrei 1 for two straight years. The Feast of Trumpets, that's Tishrei 1. If one's not familiar with it, the Feast of Trumpets is Tishrei 1. Two years in a row, we had solar eclipses. Past two years, 2024, 2025. Two solar eclipses. What does that mean? Nations will rise, nations will fall. And look at what you've seen. But look at the Middle East. Look what's happened with Iran. Look what's happened with America. Look at Israel. Look at all the nations that are rising. Look at Russia and Ukraine. Look at all of the leaders that have risen and fallen. Right? So, that's why it happens, my friends. It happens no matter what. Solar eclipse or not, the Feast of Trumpets, Feast of Trumpets. But whenever you put solar eclipses on top of the Feast of Trumpets two years in a row, boy howdy, you're going to see some interesting turnover. And that's what we have been seeing. So, the Feast of Trumpets, friends, is very important to understand. That's when the courts are open. The biblical courts, the courts of heaven are open during that time, and it's closed on Yom Kippur, sealed for the year. So, that's how important it is. And we hope that you guys stay with us on the Feast of Trumpets throughout this feast season because it's a lot of great anointings to it. And personally speaking for all of you out there, if you've never done that, please do that, and you'll see a beautiful thing. You'll see a beautiful thing with what Yahweh responds to you. And like I said, at first, it might seem a little uncomfortable because He's going to tell me or you or whoever what we need to correct. That's a good thing. That's a beautiful thing. Receive that in love. Thank you, Most High, that we need to repent. And then He will show you some amazing things of what your petitions are with these things. So, friends, I wanted to leave you with that. A very important time that we're in right now. We hope that you guys are with us. We'll be back with you on Wednesday night as well. So, we'll be back with you on Wednesday night for the solar eclipse and also the Middle East updates. There's a lot of updates to go through that we've talked about a little bit, but there's a lot of valuable information that's going on right now. You're seeing the transition of the Middle East into a new beast kingdom. Basically, you're seeing it right in front of your face with Pakistan, Arabia, Turkey coming together in a defense pact that is super huge in many ways. I don't want to go into it tonight because no reason to do the video Wednesday night, but many, many things are going down that tells us what's going on and what we're about to step into with the book of Daniel. You're seeing it right in front of your eyes in real time, the transition of the Middle East. So, we're going to go through that Wednesday night. The solar eclipse will be Wednesday night, and then we will go through the Middle East updates. And then Friday night, Shabbat night, we'll be doing the new moon of Elul, and it will be a Shabbat as well. So, we hope you guys join us for that as well as we bring in the new month and also the month before the Feast of Trumpets, Yom Teruah. So, we'll be going through that Friday night. So, Wednesday night, we're going through the solar eclipses occurring and also the Middle East updates, mainly the Middle East updates. It's just when the solar eclipse occurs. And then Friday night, Shabbat night, we'll go through Shabbat and also the new month, or the new moon of the sixth month, which they call Elul right now. And we'll go through all the beautiful tie-ins of the month. And it's really a lot of my friends say that it's their favorite month. Think about it. They say it's their favorite month is Elul because it leads into Tishrei, but also the month of Elul, all the anointings of the month of Elul. So, we hope you guys stay with us. We've got a jam-packed week for you. But Wednesday night will be a lot of great information with the Middle East updates. And then Friday night, of course, the new month. We'll proclaim it. We'll celebrate it. We'll blow the shofar and we'll welcome in the new month before we get to Yom Teruah. So, we hope you guys will join us Wednesday and Friday. But if not, we'll hopefully see you on Friday for sure.

So, now let's turn to the comments section. Shalom to you, Michael. Thank you so much for joining us. We hope everything has worked out with all the technical difficulties. We hope that everything's good now. But thank you so much for joining us. Denise, shalom to you as well. We hope you're having a great week so far and we hope you have a good week here ahead and we'll see you here soon. Thank you so much for joining us as always, Miss Denise. Thank you so much for joining us as well. Shalom to you. Proverbs 11:8: "The righteous person is rescued from trouble, and it falls on the wicked instead." The turnaround, right? Amen to that. We hope you have a great week ahead, Denise. Miss Sandra, thank you so much for joining us. Shalom to you. Great to see you as always. We hope you have a great week as well. My friend, Mr. David Chen, thank you so much for joining us. Shalom to you. We hope all is well in the Southwest out there. And thank you so much for joining us. And we'll catch up soon, my friend. Have a great week ahead. Mr. Michael, please pray for my friend Karen because she didn't say she's not saved and she is Jewish. And we will keep Karen in our prayers and we'll pray for her right now that the Most High, the Jewish Messiah will open up her eyes through the blessed Holy Spirit and that she will receive her Yeshua's salvation for her. We just pray that whatever it takes, you know, to just purge her, you know, to the truth and so that she can be saved through Yeshua the Messiah, in the name of Yeshua. Amen. Amen. Amen. And amen. Thank you for sharing that, Michael. Amen. I cannot wait for the millennial kingdom. And I second that emotion. Me as well. It's going to be beautiful. I don't like summer. Oh yeah, it's pretty hot, especially down here in Georgia with the humidity. I love Israel. Me as well. Amen. I love you and I love you as well, my friend. We hope you're doing well and it's always beautiful to see you. New year is not, it doesn't begin in fall at all. No, that's right. It is the new year on the civil calendar. And then the springtime is the Nisan 1 calendar. Two different calendars. Mr. Michael, I want to be a friend of God. And I know you are a friend of God because you keep the commandments, right? And that is the prerequisite of that is keeping the commandments. You're a friend of Elohim. Of course, Yeshua, of course. But you are a friend of His, and you keep the commandments, so amen to that. Miss Denise, the Jewish new year begins in the fall. Yes, there are two new years. There's the civil calendar, Feast of Trumpets, that goes from Adam to right now with the time of the prophecies, 6,000 years and all that. That starts in the fall. So, we have to understand it from two standpoints. The fall starts the civil calendar, which is Adam. Adam was born on the Feast of Trumpets. So that's why again, Adam's calendar, if we call it this, begins on Tishrei 1. Why that is important to understand that is because that counts time from Adam to Yeshua's second coming events, the 6,000 years, six days. You can't start the 6,000 years from Exodus 12. That would be cutting off about 2,000 years. So, you've got to start the 6,000 years, the six days that we all know in the Bible, from Adam to Yeshua. The Son of Adam is what He's called in the Hebrew, in the English, Son of Man, but it's really the Son of Adam that connects Adam to Yeshua with the second coming events. So, 6,000 years, six days, right? So, you cannot count that from Exodus. You've got to go back to Genesis, when Adam was created on the sixth day. That sixth day was Tishrei 1. That means the first day of creation was Elul 25. So again, that's just the way we know it now. But it was six days before Tishrei 1, which is Elul 25. Add six days, Feast of Trumpets. So, Adam was born on the Feast of Trumpets. Yeshua will return on the Feast of Trumpets, 6,000 years. So again, it's really beautiful. So, that's why it's important to understand the feast days and the calendar and all these things so that we can understand these things. So, the civil calendar is important. The Feast of Trumpets is where it starts because of the 6,000 years. God told us to count the feast days and all that from Exodus 12, from Nisan 1. So, the religious calendar, if you want to call it that, the biblical calendar is Nisan 1 forward. The civil calendar from Adam is Tishrei 1. They work together. One does not negate the other. We just have to understand it again from that mindset. Adam to Yeshua is civil calendar. And then we count the feast days from Nisan 1 is the calendar that we follow with counting the new moons, counting the feast days, etc., is from that calendar only, Nisan 1. So, I hope that makes sense. This civil calendar, 6,000 years, that's really what we have to go on. And also, the shmita year begins on the Feast of Trumpets. It does not begin on Nisan 1. It begins on Tishrei 1. And then the Jubilee year begins on Tishrei 10, Yom Kippur. So, that's why we have to understand both calendars because the shmita does not begin on Nisan 1. It begins on Tishrei 1. So, we have to understand both calendars in their respective understandings, but they do go together.

A Monster Ball. Shalom to you. Thank you so much for joining us. Great to see you. A 7.4 quake in Colombia today. 7.4. I saw that. Pretty amazing, isn't it? In a bad way. We pray for all the people there. I know there was, from what I saw, 80 people so far. I think if I'm remembering correctly. Too many people. One's too many, but a lot of people have died in that. So, let's keep the Colombians in prayer because of a 7.4 quake. That's pretty big. Thank you for sharing that, Monster Ball. And Miss Linda, thank you so much for joining us. Great to see you. Thank you so much for doing everything for us that you do. Good evening, everyone. This is such a beautiful teaching. Thank you, Chadwick, and everyone. Have a blessed week. Well, thank you very much for your kind remarks. Praise be to God. Hallelujah. And we hope you have a beautiful week as well. And thank you so much again for everything that you do. We really appreciate it.

Well, my friends, that's going to wrap us up for tonight. Thank you so much for joining us tonight. Don't forget to visit us on. I'll show you guys really quick some of these things that I was telling you about earlier. Let me get to it. So, this is, if you guys want to visit us at The Watchman Report, this is kind of what it looks like. And I'll kind of scroll so you guys can see a little bit of it, but it pulls in all of the articles across the globe that are relative to what we all talk about. So, it's not just pulling American media or whatever. It's pulling all media across the world that is valid in my personal opinion and not just giving people lip service. So, this is what it kind of looks like with graphics and all, but The Watchman Report. It is a shoot-off of faithfulperformance.org, or but you can just go to thewatchmanreport.com, and we have all these different articles that are pulled in, like every two hours, I believe they come in, and you can find all these different media. Some of them I've never even heard of, but they're all relative with the articles and the information that they do have. So, again, it's just articles of updates of the Middle East and what's going on really in the Middle East and North Africa. So, I just wanted to show you guys that. And also, really quick, I'll show you guys this as well. The Faithful Performance email, or excuse me, the Faithful Performance website. I think there we're having problems with it. Hang on one second. I think I just messed up. But anyhow, I'll try to get that back. But for some reason, I've seen double of this screen, double of another screen as well. But let me see if I can get that back. And if you haven't visited us, if you want to visit us there, we I'll show you some cool things on there and we'd love to connect with you guys there and do more of these things from the channel. You can obviously watch. I think that's where I was getting kind of confused. I can't look at that because that's just the video that we're doing right now, is why I got confused just a minute ago. Is if I click to the website right now, it's going to show me doing what I'm doing right now because the video is live on the website. So, that's what kind of confused me a little bit. All right, but let's keep going down. If you can, if I've shared this enough with you guys, let me share this and I'll show you some cool things really quick before we end tonight. Okay, so now we're on the website. So, again, you can watch this is me right now on the website. So, again, that's why it kind of confused me a little bit. So, you can watch the videos from the website that we have because it's live on the website. Here's for people who do not keep the Sabbath on Saturday, on why it's important and why we do keep it. We just put that right there for people who come on the site. If you want to sign up on the email list, we'll send you a free ebook of "The Cross to the Crown," and then we'll be able to connect with you. You'll only receive emails when we do live videos only, and you'll get a transcript of the video, and then if we give away an ebook or something, you'll get that as well. So, we're not going to blow your email up with just crazy stuff. Also, "Watching on the Wall," this is basically a blog that we're going to get started. You know, once we get everything kind of going, we're going to start a blog, an ongoing blog. It will either be on the website or on The Watchman Report. Either or. I think it'll be better on The Watchman Report because all the articles are on there, and we can just move the "Watchmen on the Wall" blog over there. Here we have an AI. You can ask if you want my personal opinion on whatever topic it may be. You can go to the AI, punch in the question or topic, and it will carry you to the actual video that I've done on the topic and the timestamp and everything. Pretty amazing. And again, this is The Watchman Report on the website that you guys just saw right there. We have some challenges if you guys want to have a little fun with the crossboard puzzles and all of these things if one's into that kind of stuff. And then also, you have the books and stuff like that. So, just wanted to show you guys that really quick for those who haven't been on the website with us to show you guys that all the gadgets and stuff. We do have the Hebrew calendar on there as well. I forgot to show you guys that, but the calendar is on there as well. You have to scroll to it on the slider, but it has the calendar there with the date. And thank you, Linda, for catching that. We had 12 days cut off. Okay. So, I've shortened people 12 days before the Feast of Trumpets. I didn't do that. The Yeah, I did that. So, we have to check that. But anyhow, we've got the calendar on there, the Hebrew calendar, the days highlighted, all of these things because people do get confused on the feast days and stuff, especially in the spring, but in the fall as well. So, we hope to connect with you on that on the website. And also, if you are wanting some true news with all these different articles across the globe, then you will be able to decipher what's truly going on. Okay. So, that's the way that I wanted to do it is I wanted to give the people all of the articles out there, and then you guys can decide on what all the articles say because there's a lot of misinformation given in American media. And we do have some American media on there, but I'm just saying there's a lot of misinformation in the American media for a lot of reasons. And I'm not trying to criticize that. I'm just saying there is what you and me and all of us see about a month ahead of time in the Middle East. It takes them about a month to get to, you know, because of the politics and all the stuff. So, I just put it on my mind that I thought it was a cool opportunity to create a website with all the articles coming with what we're talking about with the Middle East. The Middle East updates, if you will, with all these articles coming in to share with whoever wants to look at it. Just share with you guys all these articles, and then you guys can decipher what you want to believe in and whatnot. So, please visit us on there. We'll probably have the blog on The Watchman Report because it just makes sense that it could be real-time because those are end-time articles every two hours, and we can have real-time chats, you know, whoever wants to join the blog, if you will, and just kind of, you know, trade ideas and understandings and stuff like that. So, anyhow, we thought it would be pretty cool. So, if you guys want to join us, we'd love to see you guys there at faithfulperformance.org or thewatchmanreport.com, and we would really appreciate that. But friends, we'll be back with you on Wednesday night for the solar eclipse. Again, we won't be doing a lot of teaching on the solar eclipse because we've already done it. I mean, I'll mention it for a couple minutes because it will actually happen Wednesday. And then we will be going mainly through the Middle East updates and what's going down with the Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Pakistan defense pack. That speaks volumes of what we've been talking about on the channel. There's a new sheriff in town, if you want to say it like that, in the Middle East, and you'll see that even progressively go on with Egypt getting involved with the pack, and it will go on forward. So, we'll talk about that more. I could talk about it all night, but we'll talk about that Wednesday night. And then Friday night, we'll be back with you for the new month, for the new moon on the month of Elul, and we'll go through all the understandings and the anointings of the month of Elul, the Hebrew letter, the constellation, and also the tribe of the month. And we'll also celebrate the Sabbath as well, you know. So, we hope to see you guys here both nights, but if we can't see you one night, we hope to join you, hopefully see you the other night, if I can talk, if I can get it out. So, thank you again, everybody. I hope this has been very enlightening with the information tonight with the Hebrew letter of the Resh. We've got two more letters. Very powerful letters to close it out on, just like we opened up with the Aleph-Bet. We're going to close out with the Shin. And that's going to be very powerful, just like Yeshua says, "I am the Aleph and I am the Tav." Right? "I am the Alpha or I am the and the Omega." Right? So, that's the Greek. But in the Hebrew, He is the Aleph and He is the Tav. So, we're going to get into these last two letters. They're going to be very amazing to close out the journey. So, we really appreciate everybody's patience for being with us for this many weeks. It's taken us some time to get through all of the 22 letters, but thank you so much for your patience and your interest in those. We really appreciate it and we look forward to seeing everybody here Wednesday night, and if not Wednesday night, Friday night, but hopefully we'll see you both nights because we enjoy your company.

A few more chats before we close out the night. Miss Alba. Thank you again. The website looks great. Shalom and good evening to you. Well, shalom and good evening to you. Thank you so much for checking out the website, and I'm glad that it looks great, and we'll continue hopefully to make it look great for you. So, good to see you. Thank you so much for joining us, and we hope you have a great week ahead. Miss Sandra, thank you as well. We really appreciate it, and we thank everybody. We really appreciate everybody who's watching it live, but also on the replay as well, and also for all of the different platforms that you are watching it. We really appreciate it. And my friends, we will see you again on Wednesday night. And until that time, may God bless you and may He keep you. May His face shine upon you and give you His grace. May He lift up His countenance upon you and your family and give you His everlasting shalom. My name is Chadwick Harvey, and you've reached Faithful Performance. Good night, everybody. We'll see you Wednesday night.
