One of the common occurrences when leaving Christendom
to teshuvah to Yah is a desire to find a replacement. A replacement to what you are missing from
Christendom. That is the choir, praise
or drama team and or the loud orchestra/musician band.
Many tend to search locally, and even on social
sites trying to find a Messianic or Torah Observant fellowship to assist in
filling that Christendom replacement void.
And after a period of time they become sadden and dishearten because it
appears that there are no Messianic or Torah Observant fellowships that has the
choir, praise or drama team and or the loud orchestra/musician band.That's what many are searching for; the big bang! Something that makes them feel good or something they can tangibly see like a big church structure of a building or assembly hall.
What many are wanting is the Torah, but also wanting
the big bang stuff of Christendom! However, is this Torah realistic or a
soulish distorted fleshly desire? Because
after running around and searching sites many just leave everything alone.
Matthew 7:14 “Because the gate is narrow and the way
is hard pressed which leads to life, and there are few who find it”.
Jeremiah 6:16 “Thus said Yahweh, “Stand in the ways
and see, and ask for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; and
find rest for yourselves. But they said, ‘We do not walk in it.”
Instead of searching fellowship sites or beating the
dead horse of a Christendom feel good lookalike, try Yahweh’s method! If you did
not know HE has one, here it is:
Deuteronomy 6:5-7:
“And you shall love Yahweh your Elohim with all your heart, and with all
your being, and with all your might. And these Words which I am commanding you
today shall be in your heart, and you shall impress them upon your children,
and shall speak of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the
way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.
HIS command is for you to gather those within your
home and teach them.
Instead of wandering; live it and teach it! Oh how many hours, days, weeks, months and
years has gone by because you looked for the big band Christendom stuff within a
Messianic or Torah Observant fellowship!
You see there is a two-fold purpose for blood being
placed on the doorpost in Shemot (Exodus) 12.
- For the plague to pass over
- For the identification of Yisrael being set-apart.
“Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old
paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; and find rest for yourselves”.
Stop Wandering and Start Being a Witness! It's time!
Se'lah and Shalom
Excellent word of admonishment! Baruch HaShem!
