Week 6 /Attribute 6 - Foundation/Bonding/Connection (Yesod)
We have completed 5 weeks counting to Shavuot
Sitting At The Feet Of Our Master Yeshua
He Is Our Foundation
Mat 7:24 "So, everyone who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be like a sensible man who built his house on bedrock.
Mat 7:25 The rain fell, the rivers flooded, the winds blew and beat against that house, but it didn't collapse, because its foundation was on rock.
Mat 7:26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not act on them will be like a stupid man who built his house on sand.
Mat 7:27 The rain fell, the rivers flooded, the wind blew and beat against that house, and it collapsed - and its collapse was horrendous!"
Mat 7:28 When Yeshua had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at the way he taught,
Mat 7:29 for he was not instructing them like their Torah-teachers but as one who had authority himself.
1Co 3:11 For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Yeshua the Messiah.
1Co 3:12 Some will use gold, silver or precious stones in building on this foundation; while others will use wood, grass or straw.
1Co 3:13 But each one's work will be shown for what it is; the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire - the fire will test the quality of each one's work.
1Co 3:14 If the work someone has built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward;
1Co 3:15 if it is burned up, he will have to bear the loss: he will still escape with his life, but it will be like escaping through a fire.
Eph 2:20 You have been built on the foundation of the emissaries and the prophets, with the cornerstone being Yeshua the Messiah himself.
Eph 2:21 In union with him the whole building is held together, and it is growing into a holy temple in union with the Lord.
Eph 2:22 Yes, in union with him, you yourselves are being built together into a spiritual dwelling-place for God!
The only way to build a firm foundation is by hearing and acting on the Words of our Master Yeshua. How precious and valuable is His Word to you?
It is the Yesod/foundation of Yeshua that will pass the test of fire. Are you using Gold, Silver and Precious Stones or wood hay and stubble?
John G. Lake once said "If you love reading about what others say about the Word more then reading the Word yourself....you are backslidden" In other words you have lost your first love. If you do not know the Word how are you going to know if that book you are reading about the Word is correct?
Psa 19:7 The Torah of Adonai is perfect, restoring the inner person. The instruction of Adonai is sure, making wise the thoughtless.
Psa 19:8 The precepts of Adonai are right, rejoicing the heart. The mitzvah of Adonai is pure, enlightening the eyes.
Psa 19:9 The fear of Adonai is clean, enduring forever. The rulings of Adonai are true, they are righteous altogether,
Psa 19:10 more desirable than gold, than much fine gold, also sweeter than honey or drippings from the honeycomb.
Psa 19:11 Through them your servant is warned; in obeying them there is great reward.
His Word will....
- vs.7 Restore you within, deep in your soul
- vs 7 His Word gives you Wisdom and Understanding
- vs 8 His Word Gives Brings you Joy
- vs 8 His Word Brings Revelation Knowledge and insight into who He Is and The Beauty of His Holiness.
- vs 9 His Word is True and Righteous
- vs 10 His Word is priceless
- vs 11 Obedience To His Word Brings Reward
If your foundation has become shaky, or maybe full of potholes and cracks because you have not built your faith upon the Word it self, ask Him to bring restoration to your life and rekindle the fire in your heart once again for His Word.
