The Identity of the Bride up to the Torah |

| Our last book has now been translated into English and Dutch now! It is a strong prophetic message that sheds light on the rise of Islam and the solution HaShem has planned to fight it.
We are at the dawn of the 21st century, 2,000 years after the coming of our Master Yeshua and the world is on the road to ruin. While the Church should be strong after these centuries of practice, we witness the rise of a conquering religion, entering with power in all the civilized Christian countries to subjugate and submit men and women to an iron yoke. What are the reasons for this spiritual war and why does G-d allow Islam to conquer the Western world? What are the secret agreements concluded by our governments to give access to mass immigration for Muslims in Europe and in the United States? We will try to answer these questions in part, in this study based on the sacred texts of the Word of G-d and certain Jewish sources. |

| Study with Judah Messianic Torah Observant Teachers in Israel. October Session open We are very blessed to offer the possibility to French and English speakers to study Torah and receive certification at the end of their studies. Many have registered already and the encouragements we receive are just amazing! People are going back to their Jewish roots and enter a new intimacy with our Savior! More holiness, more closeness, more understanding of G-d's plan through Jewish Sources, of the return of the Ten Tribes... Yeshua and Torah are one !
A revelation of the Messiah without His Torah is only a partial revelation of Yeshua!
He speaks; who will listen to His voice?
For if you really believed Moshe, you would believe me; because it was about me that he wrote. But if you don't believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?" John 5:46-47 Two options to study:
1. Complete Training with graduation
2. Personal Enrichment Studies
The Distance Messianic Yeshiva is meant for those who want to deepen their Torah knowledge and go back to the Jewish roots of their faith, while discovering the Presence of the Messiah from the beginning of the Book of Genesis until the Book of Revelation. It also addresses those who desire to receive serious training in order to thoroughly become and also train talmidim (disciples) according to Yeshua's commandment: Therefore, go and make people from all nations into talmidim, immersing them into the reality of the Father, the Son and the Ruach HaKodesh, Matthew 28:19
Find out how to register: I feel overwhelmed in my spirit this morning to tell you how much both your studies and friendship have meant this last year; how important they are; and what an immense blessing (which is not a strong enough word) for myself and, by extension, my daughter. I pray without having proper words to express that G-d would shine upon you and pour out upon you in such ways as have not been seen before! |

Shabbat shalom! "If you hold back your foot on Shabbat from pursuing your own interests on my holy day; if you call Shabbat a delight, ADONAI' s holy day, worth honoring; then honor it by not doing your usual things or pursuing your interests or speaking about them. Isaiah 58:14 If you do, you will find delight in ADONAI-- I will make you ride on the heights of the land and feed you with the heritage of your ancestor Yaakov, for the mouth of ADONAI has spoken." Isaiah 58:13-14 |
A very interesting comment from one member of the Yeshiva: "This past weekend when I was meditating, the L-rd showed me something---not a profound revelation mind you, just a continuation of what He's been showing me concerning the House of Judah---I correlate it to 2 Corinthians 3:3 clearly you are an epistle of Christ, ministered by us, written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of flesh, that is, of the heart.
Judah is not just the keeper of the Oracles of G-d, they are not just leader in the things of G-d; He has made them a "living epistle"---His book on display, so to speak. Again, Judah, the elder brother has been leading the way. This living epistle has been and continues to be a visual, living depiction of His eternal plan set in the midst of man for all to see. Through obedience to the practice and keeping of the annual feasts, Shabbat, Torah, they continually and symbolically depict His redemption, death, burial, resurrection, infilling, ingathering, forgiveness, light, eternity through openly keeping His commandments! This "epistle" has been on display for centuries, as a testimony, but sadly, man has not seen and has openly condemned, criticized, ridiculed, tried to destroy and has oft times refused to receive this wonderful display of HaShem's faithfulness. His awesome plan truly on display every day for those who have eyes to see and ears to hear and a heart to receive what has been written and given. I pray that all would see, but especially the House of Israel/Ephraim as the tribes make their return. I thank G-d for putting on display through Judah, in the keeping of His appointed feasts, His eternal plan and that He has given me eyes to see!! " You have two possibilities to study: Complete training with graduation or Personal enrichment.
The Complete training will allow those who want to teach Torah to be part of our network of Torah teachers, who desire to start a Yeshiva in their home or at their kehila. Sukkat David will offer help to those who want to initiate Torah study groups.
Take the opportunity to study Torah starting with the highly prophetic Book of Genesis. Torah is the key for the end times; everything has been written in it. We just need to dive into it and receive tremendous revelations on Yeshua and His plan for our lives. From the beginning of the messianic calling of the first Patriarch, the Torah teaches us that faith is the key to salvation. Grace also has been present since the beginning. The foundations are laid from the first Book of the Bible, to help us understand the perfect plan of salvation that G-d has for mankind. If one doesn't study the foundations of this plan a great part of the Revelation is lost, notably, the Revelation of Messiah Yeshua.
Receiving Him in our heart as Savior and Master is one thing, one first necessary step for our salvation, but our path doesn't stop there. After Pesach (salvation by grace), we must head to the Festival celebrated in honor of HaShem, "three days walk" after the reception of the Torah: Shavuot. Avraham saw the L-rd, and the story of his life and of his descendents reveals His Presence, even from the beginning. The same way we have received the Savior in our hearts, it is now about receiving His Torah engraved in our hearts, even as proclaimed by the prophets in Jeremiah 31:31. True new birth takes place by the action of the Ruach HaKodesh, who circumcises our hearts to be able to walk according to the criteria of holiness of Elohim.
But in order to be able to walk in these commandements, under Yeshua's yoke, we need to know the Word. When did G-d speak, before the eyes and to the ears of all, with the sound of thunder, setting ablaze an entire mountain? The answer is obvious: the Creator of the universe came to reveal His heart at Mount Sinai, a place that didn't belong to anyone, and that was open freely to all those who wanted to drink the waters of life. Yeshua manifested Himself on that day at Mount Sinai, but only Moshe could see Him. Moshe's skin shone so intensely that he covered it with a veil. He shone from the initial Light of Creation: the Light of Messiah. He is the PURPOSE of the Torah; He fills us with His love and calls us to follow Him, to prepare a heavenly Bride.
He left us these words: John 5:45-47 But don't think that it is I who will be your accuser before the Father. Do you know who will accuse you? Moshe, the very one you have counted on! For if you really believed Moshe, you would believe me; because it was about me that he wrote. But if you don't believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?
Indeed, if we don't believe the Torah of Moshe, how will we believe the words of Yeshua? They are the same, only revealed to our understanding, because the veil was lifted.
By studying the Torah, our intimate knowledge and revelation of Yeshua grows. Don't stay at the stage of Pesach and salvation by grace; move on to the stage of priesthood! He is preparing the Kingdom of priests for the Glory of G-d the Father!

 Shalom to all our readers, Today is the 10th of Tevet and a day of fasting in Jewish communities around the world as mentioned in the Book of Zachariah.
"Although the Torah doesn't specifically commands fasting except for the affliction of Yom Kippur, four fasts are listed in the Book of Zechariah with the promise that they will one day turn into days of joy and rejoicing during the messianic era:
Zechariah 8:19 Thus says the Lord of hosts: 'The fast of the fourth month, the fast of the fifth, the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be joy and gladness and cheerful feasts for the house of Judah. Therefore love truth and peace.'
We had a lot of rain this week which is good, but there were also many casualties associated with it. Continue to pray for all those who lost loved ones and belongings. He who mourns with Israel in her time of distress will rejoice with her in her time of joy: Hebrews 10:25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together (with Israel), as the custom [is] with some; but encouraging [one another], and by so much the more as ye see the day drawing near.Isaiah 66:10-11 Rejoice with Yerushalayim! Be glad with her, all you who love her! Rejoice, rejoice with her, all of you who mourned for her; so that you nurse and are satisfied by her comforting breast, drinking deeply and delighting in the overflow of her glory. (CJB)
These fasts are all linked to the destruction of the two Temples:
· Tevet 10: Nebuchadnezzar, King of Chaldea besieged Jerusalem.
· Tammuz 17: Nebuchadnezzar made a breach in the walls of Jerusalem.
· Av 9 marks the date of the destruction of the 1st and 2nd Temples by Nebuchadnezzar and Titus, Roman Emperor.
· Tishri 3: the Governor Gedalia was assassinated under the reign of Nebuchadnezzar.
These fasts are to awaken our hearts to repentance by recalling the faults of our fathers, which led to the destruction of the Sanctuaries. These faults caused the dispersion of the sons of Israel into the nations, as Moshe prophesied to the young generation who was about to enter the Promised Land:
Deuteronomy 4:27 And the Lord will scatter you among the peoples, and you will be left few in number among the nations where the Lord will drive you.
Such repentance is necessary to hasten the reconstruction of the 3rd Temple, as the Talmud confirms :
"Any generation in which the Beit HaMikdash is not rebuilt is considered as if they had destroyed it." This passage means that every generation can, through their teshuvah (repentance) hasten the coming of the Redeemer, Messiah, and the gathering of the scattered of Zion (gathering of the 12 Tribes).
Fasting is then a preparation to repentance by confession of sins, as it is said in the Book of Leviticus:
Leviticus 26:40 But if they confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their fathers, with their unfaithfulness in which they were unfaithful to Me, and that they also have walked contrary to Me...
The prophecy of Zechariah about the transformation of these fasts into days of joy dates from about 520 BCE. The two prophets Zechariah and Haggai came back from the Babylonian exile with the people and they prophesied the reconstruction of the second Temple. This return is called in Hebrew "shivat Tzion" (the return of Zion), which began with the decree of the first king of the Persian Empire, Cyrus. He allowed the people to return to Israel after 70 years of captivity, and to rebuild the Temple.
Because of pressure from the local population, work stopped for 20 years until a new decree was issued from Darius, in the second year of his reign. During this time, the two prophets encouraged the people to rebuild the Temple by promising that its glory would be greater than the first:
Haggai 2:9 The glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former, says the Lord of hosts. And in this place I will give peace, says the Lord of hosts.
Despite the fulfillment of Jeremiah's prophecy with the return from captivity, many Jews decided to stay behind in Babylon, comfortably settled. Following the reconstruction of the second Temple, during the 4th year of the reign of Darius, a delegation of Jews from Babylon traveled to Jerusalem to inquire of the validity of the fasts:
Zechariah 7:1-3 Now in the fourth year of King Darius it came to pass that the word of the Lord came to Zechariah, on the fourth day of the ninth month, Chislev, when the people sent Sherezer, with Regem-Melech and his men, to the house of God, to pray before the Lord, and to ask the priests who were in the house of the Lord of hosts, and the prophets, saying, "Should I weep in the fifth month and fast as I have done for so many years?"
Instead of answering directly, HaShem replied with a question in the mouth of His prophet and ended His answer two chapters later with a note of messianic hope:
Zechariah 7:5 Say to all the people of the land, and to the priests: When you fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh months during those seventy years, did you really fast for Me-for Me?
Zechariah 8:19-23 Thus says the Lord of hosts: The fast of the fourth month, the fast of the fifth, the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be joy and gladness and cheerful feasts for the house of Judah. Therefore love truth and peace. Thus says the Lord of hosts: Peoples shall yet come, inhabitants of many cities; the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us continue to go and pray before the Lord, and seek the Lord of hosts. I myself will go also. Yes, many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord. Thus says the Lord of hosts: In those days ten men from every language of the nations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.
Between these words, HaShem enumerates conditions to reach this time of joy. We will discover them throughout our study. ...."
