Menorah days this week...
the Pattern of 7's for the CHRIST (as described in the Gospels)
Incarnation (Birth)... "you shall call His Name Y'shua... for He will save..." (His Name in Hebrew literally means to save)
Inauguration (Baptism)... "this is my Beloved Son..." It was the beginning of His Ministry... which was followed by the Spirit leading Him to the Temptation.
Temptation... "it is written..."
Transfiguration... "this is My Son, whom I love; with Him I am well pleased. Listen to Him."
Crucifixion... "It is Finished!"
Resurrection... "He is not here... He is Risen."
Ascension/Return... "This Yeshua/Jesus, who has been taken away from you into heaven, will come back to you in just the same way as you saw him go into heaven.”
Line up the days of the week with the Main Isaiah 11:2 Pattern. (See Days in pull-down menu). Then we add the The Word Pattern of 7's for this week as well...
I wrote out the full words for our Main Pattern to help you get a better glimpse of the pairing...

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? 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...
Have a Sweet Sunday!
Week 17 - Day2Monday, April 21, 2025 Daily Reading 1 Kings 17-19
Theme - 6 Christ
Christ has this focus: (borrowed from the Song, Glorious Day-in the Menu)
Living, He loved me:
Dying, He saved me:
Buried, He carried my sins far away:
Rising, He justified freely forever:
One Day He's Coming-Oh, Glorious Day:
As CHILDREN in Christ we can learn to have this focus for simplicity in our Journey with the LORD.

BERIT (Covenant) - T.R.U.S.T.
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: T.R.U.S.T. (all Patterns will not have a specific Scripture to note... sometimes it is an overall concept)
(Living, He loved me) Triumphant - (Who)
(Dying, He saved me) Reign - (What)
(Buried, He carried) Utmost - (How)
(Rising, He justified) Sanctions - (Why)
(One Day) Timeless - (Where/When)

S.I.M.P.L.I.C.I.T.Y. in Christ - reminders:
1 Source - (God) "Everyone who calls on the Name of the Lord will be saved." Rom 10:13 NLT
2 Instruction - (Word) 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 - (Mankind) 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 - (Salvation) “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 - (HolySpirit) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning.

10 Y'shua - (Promise) 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

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!

Gospel in the Stars (Mazzarot) - STP
Mazzarot (Constellations)(Zodiak) for this week is now the sign of the Bull - Taurus (we consult with the Maker of the Stars, not the sign). It tells that there will be His Glorious Coming in the Gospel in the Stars.
The Ancient Hebrew view of this Mazzarot- Gospel to the Jews
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 17 - Day6Friday, April 25, 2025 Daily Reading 2 Kings 10-14
CHILDREN in Christ...6 Christ
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.
Maybe there is actually wisdom in God allowing us to have several generations of family as an example... do we glean the wisdom of the older generations? I have seen a definite decline in our culture of appreciating the wisdom of elders... and maybe an actual discard of them altogether... may this not be!
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!
Remember that... The commandments of the Lord are right, bringing joy to the heart. Ps 19:8 NLT
Have you received His Joy in your heart?
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 17 - Day7Saturday, April 26, 2025 Daily Reading PSALM BOOK 2: Chapters 62-66
SABBATH - 6 Christ
Our Psalm 119 Word (see PSALM Menu) to ponder is
6 – RIGHTEOUSNESS (14 times) (plus more for other forms)
tsedaqah (H6666) - (from H6663 -tsadaq - cleanse) - rightness, virtue, justice
translated 'righteousness'...
The righteousness of Your testimonies is everlasting: give me understanding and I shall live. Ps 119:144 ONMB
In what way do you walk with your life? Are you learning righteousness?
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 Sabbath as a BABE in Christ.
Your Father loves you!
Have a Sacred Saturday!
