Psalm 112

 ¹Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
 ²His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
 ³Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
 ⁴Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
 ⁵A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.
 ⁶Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
 ⁷He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.
 ⁸His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies.
 ⁹He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.
 ¹⁰The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

Balance and moderation seem to be the key to the majority of things in life and the combination of attributes we have gone through are a perfect example of that. If it were not for this delicate balance you’d almost get a Jeckel and Hyde effect.
First, you had Loving-kindness, then Severity and Strength and now Beauty. All of which are extremes from one another. Along with balance and moderation, timing too is essential; knowing when to employ any given combination of attributes. I suppose this symmetry is the Beauty of His Majesty, like a silent regulator it along with Holiness keeps everything in balance and in check.
We were created symmetrical beings and therefore love and are drawn to things with symmetry and we find beauty in such things. Psalm 112 as we read is all about such Majestically Beautiful Symmetry.
“Abba YHWH Elohim, though we finite beings are attracted to symmetry, it seems our souls are anything but, ever in flux. We slip and slide from one extreme to another. I guess this testifies to the fact that we like absolutes too. I pray Abba Father that You would conform me into the Perfect and Majestically Beautiful Balance of Your Son Yeshua Messiah, the Living Torah. In His Name I pray, Ameyn.”

I'm Natsari!

OMER 43-44

“Today is forty-three days which are six weeks and one day of the Omer.”

Theme of the Week: Malchut - Majesty

Theme of the Day: Chesed – Loving-kindness

Overall Theme: The Loving-kindness of His Majesty

Oft times royalty has a professional distance which can be construed as, or turned into aloofness and we sometimes can’t fathom that majesty can have and should have an element of Loving-kindness to it. But King YHWH, our King is a Majestic King who is Lovingly Kind.

Psalm 106:1-5 Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? who can shew forth all his praise? Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth righteousness at all times. Remember me, O LORD, with the favour that thou bearest unto thy people: O visit me with thy salvation; That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.

The Psalm of the day, these verses speak of a Loving King who cares for and is intimately involved with His people. He is the model for any world or religious leader.

“Abba YHWH Elohim, I praise and thank You because You are a Holy, Benevolent, Loving King who cares and sacrifices for His people. I am so undeserving of this. Thank You! In the Name of Messiah Yeshua, Ameyn.”

“Today is forty-four days, which are six weeks and two days of the Omer.”

Theme of the Week: Malchut - Majesty

Theme of the Day: Gevurah - Severity and Strength

Overall Theme: The Severity and Strength of His Majesty

History is full of negative examples of Earthly Kingdom’s flexing the severity and strength of their majesty by oppression of other peoples. This Psalm today flips the human example and shows us how in a positive way G-d uses the Severity and Strength of His Majesty to free oppressed people.

Psalm 111

 ¹Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.
 ²The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
 ³His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
 ⁴He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
 ⁵He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.
 ⁶He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.
 ⁷The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.
 ⁸They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
 ⁹He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.
 ¹⁰The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.

“Abba YHWH Elohim, Thank You that the Severity and Strength of Your Majesty has freed me from oppression. Show me how to use that authority that has been given me to led others to the freedom I live in. In Yeshua’s Name, Ameyn.”

OMER 42

Theme of the Week: Yesod - Intimacy

Theme of the Day: Malchut - Majesty

Overall Theme: The Majesty of His Intimacy

Psalm 105:4 Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore.

The KJV Key Word Study Bible has this header over the Psalm, “God takes care of His people.” The Stone’s Tanak comments, “God guides the course of history; seemingly unrelated events were tied together to bring about a society of all mankind governed by God’s holy Torah.”
YHWH is a King and knows how to be Majestic without being aloof or untouchable. HE can be intimate with His people while retaining His Majesty. His Kingdom Maw (Torah) touches on the most intimate activities in human affairs and raises them to a majestic holy act. King YHWH knows and cares for every individual, knows them by name, and keeps account of the hairs on their head and how many tears they shed and even if gone unnoticed, this Almighty, Royal King is intimate with His subjects in a Majestic way and models how we as Ambassadors ought to  cary ourselves and care for each other as HE does us.
The Traditional Psalm to read is Psalm 105:1-11:

O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people. Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works. Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD. Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore. Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth; O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen. He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth. He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations. Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac; And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant: Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:

“Abba, Indeed because of Your Infinite Wisdom and keen balance, balancing extremes of Majesty and Intimacy You are the King of Kings and Lord of Lords and above all other gods. In Yeshua’s Name, Ameyn.”

Theme of the Week: Yesod - Intimacy

Theme of the Day: Yesod - Intimacy

Overall Theme: The Intimate Intimacy of His Intimacy

Have you seen the skeletons in your best friend’s closet? Do you know all the dirt on them? Have you seen behind the picket fence and seen their dirty laundry waving in the wind on the line? Don’t be too quick to say, “Yes.” Sure, you may know a lot that most people don’t know about your bosom buddy because we are all vulnerable and private and hang on to at least one dark or shameful thing. Yet the G-d of this Universe knows what you try to keep so quite and in the dark and He still loves you anyway! And since you know He knows and if you have given yourself wholly over to Him, you know what He has doesn’t come with regret.

Psalm 103:12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.  

That’s not in a complete circle like North to South is. It is an infinite line away from you.
The Traditional Psalm to read is Psalm 103:

Psalm 103

 ¹Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
 ²Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
 ³Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
 ⁴Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
 ⁵Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
 ⁶The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
 ⁷He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
 ⁸The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
 ⁹He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.
 ¹⁰He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
 ¹¹For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
 ¹²As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
 ¹³Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
 ¹⁴For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
 ¹⁵As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
 ¹⁶For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.
 ¹⁷But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;
 ¹⁸To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.
 ¹⁹The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
 ²⁰Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
 ²¹Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.
 ²²Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.

“Abba YHWH Elohim, despite the most darkest and concealed blight on my soul, You know and You still love me anyway! You have taken that which I tried so hard to hide and flicked it away like a piece of lint on my clothes. HalleluYah! Thank You Father! All in the Name of Yeshua You have done this and In His Name I pray, Ameyn.”
