The Lord, The Lord God!

Shalom!

The Name of G-d shown today is so powerful...as we enter this Shabbat on Sh'vat 2, 5771, let us bow before Him in Praise of His Name!

ADONAI, ADONAI EL
Yud Hey Vav Hey, Yud Hey Vav Hey, Alef Lamed

If you are following the Torah Portion readings of the Word of G-d, you know that the Sh'mot/Exodus is being recorded by the Hand of G-d through His Servant and Scribe, Moshe...G-d had clearly and specifically "called Moshe out" to bring the Children He Called His Own out of the Land of Mitz'rayim/Egypt...and to lead them to The Land that He promised these Ivyrim/Hebrew Children that He was giving them for all Eternity...

The story of the Sh'mot/Exodus of 2-3 Million Hebrew Men, Women and Children from one nation - Mitz'rayim/Egypt - to another - Yisrael/Israel - is recorded in great detail in the Torah. G-d said that not ONE "Yod or Tittle" would pass away...and that He would bring every Promise made about His Land and Eternal Covenant Children to pass exactly as He said He would...

The plagues He visited upon Mitzrayim/Egypt were so severe that the entire Nation was destroyed...G-d's choice of these plagues were critical - they proved His Dominance as the Creator and G-d of Israel over the false gods these Egyptians worshipped...each of whom was represented by one of the plagues that destroyed their Nation...

If you read the "behind the scenes news stories" of today's world, there are suddenly many similarities, ie: millions of fish are washing up on multiple shores around the world - DEAD...multiple thousands of birds are falling from the skies - DEAD...whales and frogs are washing up on shores around the world - DEAD...something is going. in the Animal World..there is no natural explanation for any of this...to many, it evokes thoughts of the Tribulation Period that is to come upon the Earth prior to the Second Coming of Messiah...we are told in The Revelation that "one third of the living things in the seas will die"...each day as His Clock ticks, the Second Hand that moves closer and closer to the Midnight Hour is Israel...She is HIS timepiece...we must watch Her to see Him...

"And Moshe said, "Please, show me Your Glory..." and Adonai passed over before Moshe's face, and proclaimed, YUD HEY VAV HEY, YUD HEY VAV HEY, ALEF LAMED: ADONAI, ADONAI EL, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, abundant in loving-kindness and truth, keeping loving-kindness for thousands, taking away iniquity and transgression and sin, but not entirely acquitting...charging the iniquity of fathers on their children..." And Moshe/Mem Shin Hey hastened and bowed to the earth and worshipped and said, "If, please, I have found favor in Your eyes Adonai, let Adonai please, go in our midst even though they are a stiff necked people - and You, forgive our iniquity and our sin, and take us as your own."
Sh'mot/Exodus 33:18; 34:6-9

Show me your Glory, "ADONAI, ADONAI EL"

Shabbat Shalom!
