I KINGS 18:46-19:21

In this study, we see a second example of “zeal” for Adonai. Israel was again, bowing down and worshipping Baal, and Eliyahu really had enough and decided to do something about it. He initiated a contest between YHVH and Baal. Whoever answers the prayers and brings down fire to devour the animal sacrifices, that “god” would be GOD, who the Israelites would worship from then on.

Of course, we know who won the contest. Yet as soon as Jezebel, the queen and wicked wife of King Ahab, heard this, and was told that Eliyahu had the 450 priests of Baal slain, she sent a “death threat” to Elihayu. Well, he ran all the way to Mt Horeb in Saudi Arabia, hundreds and hundreds of miles away. There he hid out for a while.

There are times when a “man of God” or a “woman of God” can pretty much be tired out, exhausted, and they really need a rest. Eliyahu was no different. Adonai understood that. He allowed him to rest, he sent an angel to cook for him, and reassured him that there were 7000 Israelites that did not bow the knee to Baal! Elihayu’s mission wasn’t quite over yet, he still had a job to do before being taken up to Heaven in a chariot of fire. Now that was quite a hot exit!

When we serve the LORD, we work to the best of our anointed abilities, yet we need to know when to rest. Not quit mind you. Quitting and resting are two different things. Serving Adonai in ministry is a life calling, ending only at death! So, continue to serve YHVH, in this way, we show our zeal.


LUKE 23:1-24:53


We have seen in the above cases, “zeal” for YHVH, yet in this case, we see YESHUA himself, who the zeal was directed to, in his case, he was the “lamb to the slaughter”. Remained silent in front of his accusers, before Pilatus and Herod. There is a time for a believer to protest, to speak out, and there is a time to remain silent. For this reason, Yeshua came into the world. Not to claim kingship then, yet the whole earth was his to rule. His mission was to teach Torah, heal the sick, and to die for our sins.

Yes, there were times when he got incensed and angry, and there were times when he showed his power, yet on the final day of his earthly life, it was a time to be silent, yet a time to forgive his accusers, to accept the nails, and to say; “Father, forgive them, they know not what they do!’ “Aba, Sh’vook l’hoon la ge’ir yadeen mana av’deen” (Aramaic) and “It is finished” “ha m’shalam” (Aramaic) seems like the translation is saying “the peace’ (is restored)

Zeal can come in two forms, aggressive, and passive, we need to know when to use them. Shalom to all. Have a blessed day.

Eliyjah or Eliyahu knew he would go to fight against Satan, a former cherub, called also Old Serpent, the Devil, and for him there was not any difference between the ridiculous tetragrammaton YHWH and Baal and Adonai, actually it's you who are saying that as you learned from the esoteric and spiritist Judaism.

Peter Apostle, filled with the Holy Spirit, said unto the rulers of the people, and elders of Israel: Acts 4:9 to 11 - Complete Jewish Bible-CJB

9 If we are being examined today about a good deed done for a disabled person, if you want to know how he was restored to health, 10 then let it be known to you and to all the people of Isra’el that it is in the NAME of the Messiah, Yeshua from Natzeret, whom you had executed on a stake as a criminal but whom God has raised from the dead, that this man stands before you perfectly healed.

11 “This Yeshua is the STONE rejected by you builders which has become the cornerstone. 12 There is salvation in no one else! For there is no other NAME under heaven given to mankind by whom we must be saved!”

That said, the ridiculous figure of the ficticius tetragrammaton and adonai have nothing to do with Yeshua-JESUS-, the Word made flesh according Isaiah 9:6-7. See, the Word is GOD, self-executing, He spoke by the prophet Isaiah, and it was done, yes, the Word is GOD, self-executing because proceeds from the MOUTH of GOD. Great mystery. The Word is from everlasting to everlasting, the Word is GOD.

GOD the Father, the Word, self-executing / self-executable, left very clear through Micah 5:2 - But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall He come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.

Acts 4:9-14KJV:

9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;

10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that
by the name of JESUS Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.

11 This is the STONE which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.

12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none OTHER NAME UNDER HEAVEN given among men, whereby we must be saved.
(Yes, there is none OTHER NAME UNDER HEAVEN given among men, whereby we must be saved. The Devil invented other ficticious NAMES or nicknames for GOD the Father, and preaches them by his messengers as being the ridiculous tetragrammaton YHWH or
adonai,

Jehovah
Yahweh,
HaShem,
Yehovah,
Elohim,
Yahusha
YEHװshia
YEHװvah
These ten are one, the Devil.

13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with JESUS.

14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.
