I will give them one heart and one way, so that they will always fear Me for their own good and for the good of their children after them.
At Mount Sinai, the Almighty 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YAHUAH) made it clear that His greatest desire is to enter into a personal relationship with us, His people. He went through great lengths to show His love for us. In the days of Moshe, He came down personally, in the burning bush, to announce His plans to Moshe. At the same time, He revealed His eternal Name, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, by which He is distinguished as the self-existent one who is sovereign over all! So Moshe was given a special commission, to lead the people of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 , the nation of Yasharal, out of Egypt. There, the people suffered so greatly from hard labor and torture, that they cried out for help. 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 heard their cries and delivered them. He brought them out with a mighty hand and outstretched arm, saving them from their enemies. He performed signs and wonders, led them through the Red Sea, and then to Mount Sinai. He was over them throughout their journey in the wilderness: a cloud by day and fire by night! But He did something very special during the seventh week after the exodus. He came down and personally spoke the 10 commandments, which were carved in stone by His very finger.
Now, the people transgressed against the Father even after hearing His voice at the foot of Sinai, and they set up a golden calf and worshipped it, as they celebrated with singing and dancing. This breach of the everlasting covenant showed that their hearts were still hardened, and they needed to surrender to the working of the Set Apart Spirit in their lives, to walk in the ways of the Father. Despite their grave sin, the Father had mercy on them, and gave them new tablets, showing that He will give us all a chance to be redeemed from our sinful ways.
Moshe sought to learn more about the Father, as he drew into a closer relationship with Him, so he asked 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 to show him His esteem. So 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 told Moshe: “I shall cause all My goodness to pass before you, and I shall proclaim the Name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 before you. And I shall favour him whom I favour, and shall have compassion on him whom I have compassion.”
When Moshe appeared again with the two tablets of stone that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 told him to cut, so He could again write the 10 commandments, the Father revealed His esteem to Moshe:
And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 came down in the cloud and stood with him there, and proclaimed the Name, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄. And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 passed before him and proclaimed, “𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 ,𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, an AL compassionate and showing favour, patient, and great in loving-commitment and truth, watching over loving-commitment for thousands, forgiving crookedness and transgression and sin, but by no means leaving unpunished, visiting the crookedness of the fathers upon the children and the children’s children to the third and the fourth generation.” (Exodus 34:5-7)
After this, we see something amazing happen in the wilderness, among the children of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄. We see that they moved with a united heart to build the tabernacle in the wilderness. Their generosity was so great that they brought more than enough, and Moshe had to ask them to stop bringing contributions for the tabernacle.
‘Take from among you a contribution to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄. Everyone whose heart so moves him, let him bring it as a contribution to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄: gold, and silver, and bronze… And everyone whose heart lifted him up and everyone whose spirit moved him came, and they brought the contribution to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 for the work of the Tent of Appointment, and for all its service, and for the set-apart garments. (Exo 35:5, 21)
The Father also prepared the hearts of those who were commissioned to build the tabernacle and fashion the priestly garments.
And Mosheh said to the children of Yasharal, “See, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 has called by name Betsal’el son of Uri, son of Ḥur, of the tribe of Yehuḏah, and He has filled him with the Spirit of Alahym, in wisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all work, to make designs, to work in gold and in silver and in bronze, and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving wood, and to work in all workmanship of design. And He has put in his heart the ability to teach, in him and Oholiaḇ son of Aḥisamaḵ, of the tribe of Dan. He has filled them with skill to do all work of the engraver and the designer and embroiderer, in blue and in purple, in scarlet material, and in fine linen, and a weaver, doing any work, and makers of designs. (Exo 35:30-35)
There is an important lesson here. We see that it is the Spirit of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 that gives us the ability to work together in harmony to achieve His will. We see that the Father took a rebellious people, and by the outpouring of His Spirit upon them, they gave generously the things that were needed to build the tabernacle where He would dwell among them, and the elect were blessed with spiritual gifts that they needed to do the work of making excellent garments and furnishings for the Dwelling Place and the priesthood.
This is a great example of how 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 moves to equip His people to accomplish His goals. This same power was moving in the days of Shabu’oth (Pentecost) in the book of Acts, and it is also available us today, to everyone who desires to partner in building the Kingdom of the Most High 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, as prophesied by our Master, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤅𐤏 the Messiah.
May the Father 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 give you peace this day, through our Master and Saviour, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤅𐤏 the Messiah, as you and YOUR HOUSEHOLD abide in Him, believe in His Name, and do His will!
🕊 Shalum aleichem! (Peace be unto you!)
