Abide in Me! "Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the Vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me." John 15:4 NKJV

Remember Me! ...the Lord Y’shua, on the night in which He was betrayed, took bread and after He gave thanks He broke it and said, “This is My body being given on your behalf: you must regularly do this in Remembrance of Me.” Likewise also the cup after supper saying, “This cup is the New Covenant by means of My blood: you must regularly do this, as often as you would drink it, in Remembrance of Me.” For as often as you would eat this bread and you would drink the cup, you are proclaiming publicly the death of the Lord until He would come. 1 Cor 11:23-26 ONMB

Is Sunday now your normal idea of the first day of the week? How does it FEEL to make Monday the second day? Are you LIVING Today intentionally in your surroundings with a 7-day realization? What insight do you get from overlaying Mankind 7's with our Main 7's? Be still and ponder ...these and other questions HolySpirit may illuminate. Write or doodle in your Journal... Remember the Songs Menu!

Have a Sweet Sunday!

Week 15 - Day2Monday, April 7, 2025 Daily Reading 2 Samuel 1-4

Theme - 3Mankind

Mankind has this focus:

The God we Serve: And it will be said in that day, Lo, this is our God. We have waited for Him and He will save us. This is the LORD! We have waited for Him. We will rejoice exuberantly and be glad in His deliverance/salvation. Isa 25:9-10 ONMB

The Voice we Follow: "... your ears will hear a word behind you saying, This is the Way, walk in it, when you turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left. Isa 30:21-22 ONMB

The Promise we Embrace: The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise, as some people think of slowness; on the contrary, He is patient with you; for it is not His purpose that anyone should be destroyed, but that everyone should turn from his sins. However, the Day of the Lord will come “like a thief.” 2 Peter 3:9-10 CJB

The Ministry we Understand: “You must continually watch out for the ministry which you took in the Lord, so that you would fulfill it.” Col 4:17

The Things which Remain: This means that all of creation will be shaken and removed, so that only unshakable things will remain. Heb 12:27 NLT

God had a special intention for Mankind:

LOVE - God, the Father wanted a Family of Spirit-born-children to love; we learn a little about family love by loving our own children.

BELONG - God, the Son wanted a Spiritual Body to express through... there is a place in His Community (church) where we each can receive and give of those gifts which He imparts for the work of the Kingdom.

PURPOSE - God, the Spirit wanted a Temple in which could dwell... as our relationship with God grows deeper, we learn to know good and evil more clearly...we become holy, like He is holy.

God formed Adam(Mankind-Humans)from the ground, (adamah)-the humus soil. They were created as both Ish(Man-male) and Ishah(Woman-female... who was FROM Ish). Can you see how knowing the Hebrew roots of words can give us a greater understanding and meaning of what God really did? Adamah-Adam... Ish-Ishah... Humus-Humans. I never got that understanding until I began to dig deeper into Biblical Hebrew... more to come!

Then God said, "WE WILL MAKE Mankind in our image, after our likeness and have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the fowl of the air, over the cattle, over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth." He made them male and female and then God said, "Be fruitful! Multiply! Fill the earth! Subdue it and have dominion..." And God said, "Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; it will be food for you." Genesis 1:26 ONMB

As CHILDREN in Christ we can begin to learn about our Purpose... about where we Belong... and about the Great Love of our Father!

Time for Daily P.S.A.L.M.S. Quiet Time

Have a Marvelous Monday!

Week 15 - Day3Tuesday, April 8, 2025 Daily Reading 2 Samuel 5-10

BERIT (Covenant) - F.A.I.T.H.

There are five points of covenant that we use in this study and they can be related in this order...

Who What How Why Where/When ...all a very loose description that will be more clear as we go.

We will explore our next Covenant Pattern of 5's ... and I hope the beauty will become obvious. For this week, our Pattern of Covenant 5's is: F.A.I.T.H

(God/Serve) Father - (Who) For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to bring you back again into fear; on the contrary, you received the Spirit, who makes us sons and by whose power we cry out, “Abba!” (that is, “Dear Father!”). Rom 8:15 CJSB

(Voice/Follow) Arrangement - (What) ...the One Who rescues us and calls us to a holy calling, not according to our works but according to His own Purpose and grace, because that grace was given to us by Messiah Y’shua before eternal time... 2 Tim 1:9-10 ONMB

(Promise/Embrace) Infinite - (How) Great is our Lord and of great power: His understanding is infinite. Ps 147:5 ONMB

(Ministry/Understand) Trust - (Why) The God of my Rock, in Him will I trust. 2 Sam 22:3 ONMB

(Things/Remain) Heritage - (Where/When) The Spirit Himself bears witness with our own spirits that we are children of God; and if we are children, then we are also heirs, heirs of God and joint-heirs with the Messiah... Romans 8:16-17 CJSB

Time for Daily P.S.A.L.M.S. Quiet Time

Have a Terrific Tuesday... maybe with tacos!

Week 15 - Day4Wednesday, April 9, 2025 Daily Reading 2 Samuel 11-16

S.I.M.P.L.I.C.I.T.Y. in Christ - reminders:

1 Source - "Everyone who calls on the Name of the Lord will be saved." Rom 10:13 NLT

2 Instruction - All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness... 2Tim 3:16 NKJV

3 Ministry - And all things are from God, the One Who reconciled us to Himself through Messiah and Who gave us the ministry of reconciliation... 2 Cor 5:18-19 OneNewManBible (ONMB)

4 Plan - “For God so loved the world that He gave His only and unique Son, so that everyone who trusts in Him may have eternal life, instead of being utterly destroyed. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but rather so that through Him, the world might be saved. John 3:16-17 CJB

5 Life.LightLove - In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. All things came through Him, and there was not one thing that came into being without His participation. What had come in Him was Life, and the Life was the Light of mankind: John 1:1-5 OneNewManBible (ONMB)

6 Intention - Furthermore, we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called in accordance with His purpose; Rom 8:28 CJB

7 Completion - ...(Y’shua said,) “It has been completed,” John 19:30 ONMB

8 Intercession - First of all, then, I counsel that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all human beings, 1 Tim 2:1-2 CJB

9 Transformation - Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Rom 12:2 NLT

10 Y'shua - And she will give birth to a Son, and you will call His name Y’shua: for He will save His people from their sins.” Matt 1:21-22 ONMB

So much to sit with HolySpirit today... Time for Daily P.S.A.L.M.S.

Quiet Time Get your Journal and ponder S.I.M.P.L.I.C.I.T.Y.... the concept and verses above... do you need more simplicity in your day-to-day so you can incorporate more S.I.M.P.L.I.C.I.T.Y.? Can you feel the growth in your spirit?

Have a Wonderful Wednesday!

Week 15- Day5Thursday, April 10, 2025 Daily Reading 2 Samuel 17-21

Gospel in the Stars (Mazzarot) - STP

Mazzarot (Constellations)(Zodiak) for this week is still the sign of the Lamb - Aries (we consult with the Maker of the Stars, not the sign). It tells that there will be Glory from Humiliation in the Gospel in the Stars. Think of the Lamb of God here.

The Ancient Hebrew view of this Mazzarot-The Lamb of God Proclaims Liberty

Seasons - Times - Purpose (STP)

See THURSDAY under the Days Menu for the Ecclesiastes 3 list of STP... there are 28 of them. What Season/Times/Purpose do you find yourself in Today? What Promises can you hold onto from your Father to get you through the hard ones? How can you Praise Him for the easy ones?

Time for Daily P.S.A.L.M.S. Quiet Time You know what to do!

Have a Thankful Thursday!

Week 15 - Day6Friday, April 11, 2025 Daily Reading 2 Samuel 22-25

CHILDREN in Christ... 4 Mankind

Theologians have noticed a connection of God having a triune-Father.Son.Spirit - being and Mankind also having a similar three-part being.

May the God of shalom make you completely holy — may your entire spirit, soul and body be kept blameless for the coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah. 1 Thess 5:23-24 CJSB

I don't go into in this devotional, but I share the following for a deeper look into the above. You can download the Treasures of Truth and Unless a Grain of Wheat for additional study.

As you grow in Christ you will begin to be mobile by spiritually crawling... then standing...then walking... and eventually running, and yes, soaring! You will learn to commit to memory the Word of God that will keep your mind "stayed on Him" that will bring you "peace that passes human understanding." After you have partaken of it you will be able to share it with others.

Do not rush this process of growth. Enjoy and embrace being a newborn, a child, and a young one staying close to those mature true believers who will guide you into your destiny with God. Even when we are mature, there is always someone with more experience in this journey... so I believe we will always need to have someone to help lead us in this life.

The Parable of the Sower (see Menu) talks about the SEED (the Word of God) that goes into stony soil and it doesn't get deep roots. So when life gets rough, they fall away from the LORD. The Soil is the heart of a person. Children need to get God's Word into their heart to produce good soil (a heart that hungers and thirsts for Him) for that SEED (the Word) to deeply take root in. The Word is the milk... so drink up! Make the soil of your heart rich!

For our Jewish cousins, sundown tonight is the beginning of Sabbath that will continue all day tomorrow until sundown. Shabbat Shalom! (Sabbath of Peace).

Time for Daily P.S.A.L.M.S. Quiet Time You know what to do!

Have a Fantastic Friday!

Week 15 - Day7Saturday, April 12, 2025 Daily Reading PSALM BOOK 2: Chapters 53-57

SABBATH - 3 Mankind

Our Psalm 119 Word to ponder is

4- COMMANDMENTS (23 times)

mitsvah (H4687) - a command

translated 'commandment'...

Make me to go in the path of Your commandments, for I delight in them. Ps 119:35 ONMB

What are your testimonies in the LORD?... the inner/outer witness that He is real and active in your life? This would be your blessings! Ann Voskamp in her book One Thousand Gifts challenges her readers to count 1000 blessings. I actually was able to do it over a period of months... Try it!

How do you Honor the Sabbath and Keep it Holy (set apart for God)?

“Remember the day, Shabbat, to set it apart for God. You have six days to labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Shabbat for Adonai your God. On it, you are not to do any kind of work ... For in six days, Adonai made heaven and earth, the sea and everything in them; but on the seventh day He rested. This is why Adonai blessed the day, Shabbat, and separated it for Himself. Ex 20:8-11 CJSB abbreviated

Time for Daily P.S.A.L.M.S. Quiet Time

Reflect - Ponder - Praise - Gather - Worship - Rest ... However you are led to celebrate and reflect on Sabbath as a BABE in Christ.

Your Father loves you!

Have a Sacred Saturday!
