 This Weeks Torah is "Balak" Numbers 22:2- 25:9

 Haftarah Micah 5:6-6:8 Gospel John 13-14

Balak son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.

Moab was alarmed because that people was so numerous. Moab dreaded the Israelites, and Moab said to the elders of Midian, "Now this horde will lick clean all that is about us as an ox licks up the grass of the field."

Balak son of Zippor, who was king of Moab at that time, sent messengers to Balaam son of Beor in Pethor, which is by the Euphrates, in the land of his kinsfolk, to invite him, saying, "There is a people that came out of Egypt; it hides the earth from view, and it is settled next to me. Come then, put a curse upon this people for me, since they are too numerous for me; perhaps I can thus defeat them and drive them out of the land. For I know that he whom you bless is blessed indeed, and he whom you curse is cursed."

The elders of Moab and the elders of Midian, versed in divina- tion, set out. They came to Balaam and gave him Balak's message. He said to them, "Spend the night here, and I shall reply to you as the Lord may instruct me." So the Moabite dignitaries stayed with Balaam.

God came to Balaam and said, "What do these people want of you?" Balaam said to God, "Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab, sent me this message: Here is a people that came out from Egypt and hides the earth from view. Come now and curse them for me; perhaps I can engage them in battle and drive them off." But God said to Balaam, "Do not go with them. You must not curse that people, for they are blessed."

Balaam arose in the morning and said to Balak's dignitaries, "Go back to your own country, for the Lord will not let me go with you." The Moabite dignitaries left, and they came to Balak and said, "Balaam refused to come with us."

Then Balak sent other dignitaries, more numerous and distinguished than the first. They came to Balaam and said to him, "Thus says Balak son of Zippor: Please do not refuse to come to me. I will reward you richly and I will do anything you ask of me. Only come and damn this people for me." Balaam replied to Balak's officials, "Though Balak were to give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not do anything, big or little, contrary to the command of the Lord my God. So you, too, stay here overnight, and let me find out what else the Lord may say to me." That night God came to Balaam and said to him, "If these men have come to invite you, you may go with them. But whatever I command you, that you shall do."

When he arose in the morning, Balaam saddled his ass and departed with the Moabite dignitaries. But God was incensed at his going; so an angel of the Lord placed himself in his way as an adversary.

He was riding on his she-ass, with his two servants alongside, when the ass caught sight of the angel of the Lord standing in the way, with his drawn sword in his hand. The ass swerved from the road and went into the fields; and Balaam beat the ass to turn her back onto the road. The angel of the Lord then stationed himself in a lane between the vineyards, with a fence on either side. The ass, seeing the angel of the Lord, pressed herself against the wall and squeezed Balaam's foot against the wall; so he beat her again. Once more the angel of the Lord moved forward and stationed himself on a spot so narrow that there was no room to swerve right or left. When the ass now saw the angel of the Lord, she lay down under Balaam; and Balaam was furious and beat the ass with his stick.

Then the Lord opened the ass's mouth, and she said to Balaam, "What have I done to you that you have beaten me these three times?" Balaam said to the ass, "You have made a mockery of me! If I had a sword with me, I'd kill you." The ass said to Balaam, "Look, I am the ass that you have been riding all along until this day! Have I been in the habit of doing thus to you?" And he answered, "No."

Then the Lord uncovered Balaam's eyes, and he saw the angel of the Lord standing in the way, his drawn sword in his hand; thereupon he bowed right down to the ground. The angel of the Lord said to him, "Why have you beaten your ass these three times? It is I who came out as an adversary, for the errand is obnoxious to me. And when the ass saw me, she shied away because of me those three times. If she had not shied away from me, you are the one I should have killed, while sparing her." Balaam said to the angel of the Lord, "I erred because I did not know that you were standing in my way. If you still disapprove, I will turn back." But the angel of the Lord said to Balaam, "Go with the men. But you must say nothing except what I tell you." So Balaam went on with Balak's dignitaries.

When Balak heard that Balaam was coming, he went out to meet him at Ir-moab, which is on the Arnon border, at its farthest point. Balak said to Balaam, "When I first sent to invite you, why didn't you come to me? Am I really unable to reward you?" But Balaam said to Balak, "And now that I have come to you, have I the power to speak freely? I can utter only the word that God puts into my mouth."

Balaam went with Balak and they came to Kiriath-huzoth. Balak sacrificed oxen and sheep, and had them served to Balaam and the dignitaries with him. In the morning Balak took Balaam up to Bamoth-baal. From there he could see a portion of the people.

Balaam said to Balak, "Build me seven altars here and have seven bulls and seven rams ready here for me." Balak did as Balaam directed; and Balak and Balaam offered up a bull and a ram on each altar. Then Balaam said to Balak, "Stay here beside your offerings while I am gone. Perhaps the Lord will grant me a manifestation, and whatever He reveals to me I will tell you." And he went off alone.

God manifested Himself to Balaam, who said to Him, "I have set up the seven altars and offered up a bull and a ram on each altar." And the Lord put a word in Balaam's mouth and said, "Return to Balak and speak thus." So he returned to him and found him standing beside his offerings, and all the Moabite dignitaries with him. He took up his theme, and said:

From Aram has Balak brought me, Moab's king from the hills of the East: Come, curse me Jacob, come, tell Israel's doom! How can I damn whom God has not damned, how doom when the Lord has not doomed? As I see them from the mountain tops, gaze on them from the heights, there is a people that dwells apart, not reckoned among the nations, who can count the dust of Jacob, number the dust-cloud of Israel? May I die the death of the upright, may my fate be like theirs!

Then Balak said to Balaam, "What have you done to me? Here I brought you to damn my enemies, and instead you have blessed them!" He replied, "I can only repeat faithfully what the Lord puts in my mouth." Then Balak said to him, "Come with me to another place from which you can see them--you will see only a portion of them; you will not see all of them--and damn them for me from there." With that, he took him to Sedehzophim, on the summit of Pisgah. He built seven altars and offered a bull and a ram on each altar. And [Balaam] said to Balak, "Stay here beside your offerings, while I seek a manifestation yonder."

The Lord manifested Himself to Balaam and put a word in his mouth, saying, "Return to Balak and speak thus." He went to him and found him standing beside his offerings, and the Moabite dignitaries with him. Balak asked him, "What did the Lord say?" And he took up his theme, and said:

Up, Balak, attend, give ear unto me, son of Zippor! God is not man to be capricious, or mortal to change His mind. Would He speak and not act, promise and not fulfill? My message was to bless: when He blesses, I cannot reverse it. No harm is in sight for Jacob, no woe in view for Israel. The Lord their God is with them, and their King's acclaim in their midst. God who freed them from Egypt is for them like the horns of the wild ox. Lo, there is no augury in Jacob, no divining in Israel: Jacob is told at once, yea Israel, what God has planned.

Lo, a people that rises like a lion, leaps up like the king of beasts, rests not till it has feasted on prey and drunk the blood of the slain.

Thereupon Balak said to Balaam, "Don't curse them and don't bless them!" In reply, Balaam said to Balak, "But I told you: Whatever the Lord says, that I must do."

Then Balak said to Balaam, "Come now, I will take you to another place. Perhaps God will deem it right that you damn them for me there." Balak took Balaam to the peak of Peor, which overlooks the wasteland. Balaam said to Balak, "Build me here seven altars, and have seven bulls and seven rams ready for me here." Balak did as Balaam said: he offered up a bull and a ram on each altar.

Now Balaam, seeing that it pleased the Lord to bless Israel, did not, as on previous occasions, go in search of omens, but turned his face toward the wilderness. As Balaam looked up and saw Israel encamped tribe by tribe, the spirit of God came upon him. Taking up his theme, he said:

Word of Balaam son of Beor,
Word of the man whose eye is true,
Word of him who hears God's speech,
Who beholds visions from the Almighty,
Prostrate, but with eyes unveiled:
How fair are your tents, O Jacob,
Your dwellings, O Israel!
Like palm-groves that stretch out,
Like gardens beside a river,
Like aloes planted by the Lord,
Like cedars beside the water;
Their boughs drip with moisture,
Their roots have abundant water.
Their king shall rise above Agag,
Their kingdom shall be exalted.
God who freed them from Egypt
Is for them like the horns of the wild ox.
They shall devour enemy nations,
Crush their bones,
And smash their arrows.
They crouch, they lie down like a lion,
Like the king of beasts; who dare rouse them?
Blessed are they who bless you,
Accursed they who curse you!

Enraged at Balaam, Balak struck his hands together. "I called you," Balak said to Balaam, "to damn my enemies, and instead you have blessed them these three times! Back with you at once to your own place! I was going to reward you richly, but the Lord has denied you the reward." Balaam replied to Balak, "But I even told the messengers you sent to me, 'Though Balak were to give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not of my own accord do anything good or bad contrary to the Lord's command. What the Lord says, that I must say.'

And now, as I go back to my people, let me inform you of what this people will do to your people in days to come." He took up his theme, and said:

Word of Balaam son of Beor,
Word of the man whose eye is true,
Word of him who hears God's speech,
Who obtains knowledge from the Most High,
And beholds visions from the Almighty,
Prostrate, but with eyes unveiled:
What I see for them is not yet,
What I behold will not be soon:
A star rises from Jacob,
A scepter comes forth from Israel;
It smashes the brow of Moab,
The foundation of all children of Seth.
Edom becomes a possession,
Yea, Seir a possession of its enemies;
But Israel is triumphant.
A victor issues from Jacob
To wipe out what is left of Ir.
He saw Amalek and, taking up his theme, he said:
A leading nation is Amalek;
But its fate is to perish forever.
He saw the Kenites and, taking up his theme, he said:
Though your abode be secure,
And your nest be set among cliffs,
Yet shall Kain be consumed,
When Asshur takes you captive.
He took up his theme and said:
Alas, who can survive except God has willed it!
Ships come from the quarter of Kittim;
They subject Asshur, subject Eber.
They, too, shall perish forever.
Then Balaam set out on his journey back home; and Balak also went his way.

While Israel was staying at Shittim, the people profaned themselves by whoring with the Moabite women, who invited the people to the sacrifices for their god. The people partook of them and worshiped that god. Thus Israel attached itself to Baal-peor, and the Lord was incensed with Israel. The Lord said to Moses, "Take all the ringleaders and have them publicly impaled before the Lord, so that the Lord's wrath may turn away from Israel." So Moses said to Israel's officials, "Each of you slay those of his men who attached themselves to Baal-peor."

Just then one of the Israelites came and brought a Midianite woman over to his companions, in the sight of Moses and of the whole Israelite community who were weeping at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting. When Phinehas, son of Eleazar son of Aaron the priest, saw this, he left the assembly and, taking a spear in his hand, he followed the Israelite into the chamber and stabbed both of them, the Israelite and the woman, through the belly. Then the plague against the Israelites was checked. Those who died of the plague numbered twenty-four thousand.

Mission Updates: Greetings Saints in His Perfect Peace, We are working hard as we can in the heat; in fact we started working nights instead of days because of the heat! The electric guy is outside now working on getting us a box in so power can come on tomorrow or the next day, then the work will go to a rush. At that point we have to have money for several things plus we are moving the stuff over from our old place. I just pray the air conditioner works because I have been staying nights in the other place with the help, and now we will have to stay in the new building.If funds come in I can do this and get opened in 10 days after the electric and air comes on.  I have $500 coming from Canada I was told that will take a few days to get here and a few days for our country bank to exchange it. You see they send it out to a large bank. I plan on using that money to pay the plumber. So the few days wait should be okay, and seeing's how we and the electrician are doing most of the labor I pray it will cover his work. I did get the newsletter out so in about two weeks it should draw in funds for the normal bills. A relief! Saints I really need you to help pray these things in because I know satan is trying hard against us. We really need to raise some funds now. If we could raise a $1000 to $2000 we would just sail right in and be done. I want to be done within the newt two weeks I need to reopen the second Tuesday in July!  The LORD  bless thee and keep thee; The LORD make His face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee; The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee,
and give thee shalom. (peace) Bemidbar (Numbers)  6:24-26 In Yeshua's Name,     Bro. Dan, Pastor of Messiah's Branch

Matthew 25:34
 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

Shalom In Yeshua our Messiah

Yesterday I spent all day packing and moving into the new building (still no electric). We will be move by the beginning of Shabbath today. I'm not sure if the electric came on today or not but it was suppose to. This will be such a great work to so many people they have already been coming in asking for help. The Newsleter went out Tuesday so many of you should have it by now. We did a double issuse due to it being so late and us being so busy with moving. I still have bills for June that have now doubled. All the utilities at 801 Maple are scheduled to be turned of Monday. I need stamps for the prison weekly and funding to pay the bills. Pleas pray about helping yes Yahweh will provide but He uses His people to do it and you may be a vessel He has been waiting to hear from to support these works. Thank you all who have helped and continue to help we have needed every bit that comes. Yahweh has it all under control so I'm not letting the stress and worry over take me. I pray you all have a safe and wonderful 4th of July it will be Pastor Dans -- birthday.

Have a blessed week Shalom sisterlinda

" THE Truth will set you FREE" 

 

SIDE BY SIDE--YOU CHOOSE

 

They lie on the table side by side,

The Holy Bible and the TV guide.

 

One is well worn and cherished with pride,

Not the Bible . . . but the TV guide.

 

One is used daily to help folks decide,

No, not the Bible . . . but the TV guide.

 

As the pages are turned, what shall they see?

Oh, what does it matter, turn on the TV.

 

Then confusion reigns, they can't all agree,

On what they should watch on the old TV.

 

So they open the book in which they confide,

No, not the Bible . . . but the TV guide.

 

The Word of God is seldom read,

Maybe a verse as they fall into bed.

 

Exhausted and sleepy and tired as can be,

Not from reading the Bible . . . from watching TV.

 

So then back to the table side by side,

Lie the Holy Bible and the TV guide.

 

No time for prayer, no time for the Word,

The plan of Salvation is seldom heard.

 

But forgiveness of sin, so full and free,

Is found in the Bible . . . not on TV.

This weeks Torah Chukkat "Ordinance of" Numbers 19:1-22:1 Haftarah Judges 11:1-33 Gospel John 3:10-21

The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying: This is the ritual law that the Lord has commanded: Instruct the Israelite people to bring you a red cow without blemish, in which there is no defect and on which no yoke has been laid. You shall give it to Eleazar the priest. It shall be taken outside the camp and slaughtered in his presence. Eleazar the priest shall take some of its blood with his finger and sprinkle it seven times toward the front of the Tent of Meeting. The cow shall be burned in his sight--its hide, flesh, and blood shall be burned, its dung included--and the priest shall take cedar wood, hyssop, and crimson stuff, and throw them into the fire consuming the cow. The priest shall wash his garments and bathe his body in water; after that the priest may reenter the camp, but he shall be unclean until evening. He who performed the burning shall also wash his garments in water, bathe his body in water, and be unclean until evening. A man who is clean shall gather up the ashes of the cow and deposit them outside the camp in a clean place, to be kept for water of lustration for the Israelite community. It is for cleansing. He who gathers up the ashes of the cow shall also wash his clothes and be unclean until evening. This shall be a permanent law for the Israelites and for the strangers who reside among you. He who touches the corpse of any human being shall be unclean for seven days. He shall cleanse himself with it on the third day and on the seventh day, and then be clean; if he fails to cleanse himself on the third and seventh days, he shall not be clean. Whoever touches a corpse, the body of a person who has died, and does not cleanse himself, defiles the Lord's Tabernacle; that person shall be cut off from Israel. Since the water of lustration was not dashed on him, he remains unclean; his uncleanness is still upon him.

This is the ritual: When a person dies in a tent, whoever enters the tent and whoever is in the tent shall be unclean seven days; and every open vessel, with no lid fastened down, shall be unclean. And in the open, anyone who touches a person who was killed or who died naturally, or human bone, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days. Some of the ashes from the fire of cleansing shall be taken for the unclean person, and fresh water shall be added to them in a vessel. A person who is clean shall take hyssop, dip it in the water, and sprinkle on the tent and on all the vessels and people who were there, or on him who touched the bones or the person who was killed or died naturally or the grave. The clean person shall sprinkle it upon the unclean person on the third day and on the seventh day, thus cleansing him by the seventh day. He shall then wash his clothes and bathe in water, and at nightfall he shall be clean. If anyone who has become unclean fails to cleanse himself, that person shall be cut off from the congregation, for he has defiled the Lord's sanctuary. The water of lustration was not dashed on him: he is unclean. That shall be for them a law for all time. Further, he who sprinkled the water of lustration shall wash his clothes; and whoever touches the water of lustration shall be unclean until evening. Whatever that unclean person touches shall be unclean; and the person who touches him shall be unclean until evening.

The Israelites arrived in a body at the wilderness of Zin on the first new moon, and the people stayed at Kadesh. Miriam died there and was buried there. The community was without water, and they joined against Moses and Aaron. The people quarreled with Moses, saying, "If only we had perished when our brothers perished at the instance of the Lord! Why have you brought the Lord's congregation into this wilderness for us and our beasts to die there? Why did you make us leave Egypt to bring us to this wretched place, a place with no grain or figs or vines or pomegranates? There is not even water to drink!" Moses and Aaron came away from the congregation to the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, and fell on their faces. The Presence of the Lord appeared to them. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, "You and your brother Aaron take the rod and assemble the community, and before their very eyes order the rock to yield its water. Thus you shall produce water for them from the rock and provide drink for the congregation and their beasts." Moses took the rod from before the Lord, as He had commanded him. Moses and Aaron assembled the congregation in front of the rock; and he said to them, "Listen, you rebels, shall we get water for you out of this rock?" And Moses raised his hand and struck the rock twice with his rod. Out came copious water, and the community and their beasts drank. But the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, "Because you did not trust Me enough to affirm My sanctity in the sight of the Israelite people, therefore you shall not lead this congregation into the land that I have given them." Those are the Waters of Meribah--meaning that the Israelites quarrelled with the Lord--through which He affirmed His sanctity.

From Kadesh, Moses sent messengers to the king of Edom: "Thus says your brother Israel: You know all the hardships that have befallen us; that our ancestors went down to Egypt, that we dwelt in Egypt a long time, and that the Egyptians dealt harshly with us and our ancestors. We cried to the Lord and He heard our plea, and He sent a messenger who freed us from Egypt. Now we are in Kadesh, the town on the border of your territory. Allow us, then, to cross your country. We will not pass through fields or vineyards, and we will not drink water from wells. We will follow the king's highway, turning off neither to the right nor to the left until we have crossed your territory." But Edom answered him, "You shall not pass through us, else we will go out against you with the sword." "We will keep to the beaten track," the Israelites said to them, "and if we or our cattle drink your water, we will pay for it. We ask only for passage on foot--it is but a small matter." But they replied, "You shall not pass through!" And Edom went out against them in heavy force, strongly armed. So Edom would not let Israel cross their territory, and Israel turned away from them. Setting out from Kadesh, the Israelites arrived in a body at Mount Hor. At Mount Hor, on the boundary of the land of Edom, the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, "Let Aaron be gathered to his kin: he is not to enter the land that I have assigned to the Israelite people, because you disobeyed my command about the waters of Meribah. Take Aaron and his son Eleazar and bring them up on Mount Hor. Strip Aaron of his vestments and put them on his son Eleazar. There Aaron shall be gathered unto the dead."

Moses did as the Lord had commanded. They ascended Mount Hor in the sight of the whole community. Moses stripped Aaron of his vestments and put them on his son Eleazar, and Aaron died there on the summit of the mountain. When Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain, the whole community knew that Aaron had breathed his last. All the house of Israel bewailed Aaron thirty days. When the Canaanite, king of Arad, who dwelt in the Negeb, learned that Israel was coming by the way of Atharim, he engaged Israel in battle and took some of them captive. Then Israel made a vow to the Lord and said, "If You deliver this people into our hand, we will proscribe their towns." The Lord heeded Israel's plea and delivered up the Canaanites; and they and their cities were proscribed. So that place was named Hormah. They set out from Mount Hor by way of the Sea of Reeds to skirt the land of Edom. But the people grew restive on the journey, and the people spoke against God and against Moses, "Why did you make us leave Egypt to die in the wilderness? There is no bread and no water, and we have come to loathe this miserable food." The Lord sent seraph serpents against the people. They bit the people and many of the Israelites died. The people came to Moses and said, "We sinned by speaking against the Lord and against you. Intercede with the Lord to take away the serpents from us!" And Moses interceded for the people. Then the Lord said to Moses, "Make a seraph figure and mount it on a standard. And if anyone who is bitten looks at it, he shall recover." Moses made a copper serpent and mounted it on a standard; and when anyone was bitten by a serpent, he would look at the copper serpent and recover.

The Israelites marched on and encamped at Oboth. They set out from Oboth and encamped at Iye-abarim, in the wilderness bordering on Moab to the east. From there they set out and encamped at the wadi Zered. From there they set out and encamped beyond the Arnon, that is, in the wilderness that extends from the territory of the Amorites. For the Arnon is the boundary of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites. Therefore the Book of the Wars of the Lord speaks of "... Waheb in Suphah, and the wadis: the Arnon with its tributary wadis, stretched along the settled country of Ar, hugging the territory of Moab ..." And from there to Beer, which is the well where the Lord said to Moses, "Assemble the people that I may give them water." Then Israel sang this song:

Spring up, O well--sing to it--
The well which the chieftains dug,
Which the nobles of the people started
With maces, with their own staffs.

And from Midbar to Mattanah, and from Mattanah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth, and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the country of Moab, at the peak of Pisgah, overlooking the wasteland. Israel now sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying, "Let me pass through your country. We will not turn off into fields or vineyards, and we will not drink water from wells. We will follow the king's highway until we have crossed your territory." But Sihon would not let Israel pass through his territory. Sihon gathered all his people and went out against Israel in the wilderness. He came to Jahaz and engaged Israel in battle. But Israel put them to the sword, and took possession of their land, from the Arnon to the Jabbok, as far as [Az] of the Ammonites, for Az marked the boundary of the Ammonites. Israel took all those towns. And Israel settled in all the towns of the Amorites, in Heshbon and all its dependencies. Now Heshbon was the city of Sihon king of the Amorites, who had fought against a former king of Moab and taken all his land from him as far as the Arnon. Therefore the bards would recite: "Come to Heshbon; firmly built and well founded is Sihon's city. For fire went forth from Heshbon, flame from Sihon's city, consuming Ar of Moab, the lords of Bamoth by the Arnon. Woe to you, O Moab! You are undone, O people of Chemosh! His sons are rendered fugitive and his daughters captive by an Amorite king, Sihon." Yet we have cast them down utterly, Heshbon along with Dibon; we have wrought desolation at Nophah, which is hard by Medeba.

So Israel occupied the land of the Amorites. Then Moses sent to spy out Jazer, and they captured its dependencies and dispossessed the Amorites who were there. They marched on and went up the road to Bashan, and King Og of Bashan, with all his people, came out to Edrei to engage them in battle. But the Lord said to Moses, "Do not fear him, for I give him and all his people and his land into your hand. You shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites who dwelt in Heshbon." They defeated him and his sons and all his people, until no remnant was left him; and they took possession of his country. The Israelites then marched on and encamped in the steppes of Moab, across the Jordan from Jericho.

June 17, 2007  began the Fourth Biblical Month Tamuz 1, 5767

 

Mission Updates: Mark 10:13-16

And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them. But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein. And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.

Greetings Saints in His Perfect Peace, Children, Children, Children, today as many days we helped those with small children. One Uncle has been coming to the mission for years to get food for his nieces and nephews, they are now 5, 7, 12, and 13. The Father has liver and now lung cancer and the mother is a dope addict and prostitute. The Uncle has a drinking problem also and also has liver cancer, but he does forage for food for this family. He is kicked out of his own home until he finds a job. The mom gets $700 worth of food stamps every month but blows them on dope for the most part. We have been caring for this family for years, or rather the children that suffer because of the parents, in fact they may get kicked out of the home they own unless they get it cleaned up, I do not look for that to a happen. But we feed them as we can….and of course pray for all of them. Another man, a very bad guy as I would call him, came up today and said " pastor, I need to get some Milk and eggs from you today" Now I thought, " it seems not a normal request for this person, what would he want with milk and eggs?" But as I was led by the spirit I got him two dozen eggs, a loaf of bread, and a gallon of milk. When I got back here he came with the cutest little boy that could barely walk. He introduced him as his child and took me to meet what he said was his wife to be. He said he wished me to marry them as he had decided to straighten up and go back in the military, this is a good thing for him and of course the child's little smile blessed me. Summer is here and more and more women and children show up than in the winter or school months. We were very over packed today, but all got along with high hopes the new place will be open soon. I know many of my supporters are worn out from the money it has taken to get this done, and we are not done yet, just in the back stretch. I really need to get some money in for materials. I am waiting on; a exhaust hood for the stove, cost $119 plus the ductwork, total over $200, I need it now while the electric guys are here, we need $280 to Over $300 to fix the kitchen floor. We did get the stools fixed AMEN! We will need some money to pay the plumber who will be coming to fix the drains for the kitchen sinks. Other electric things, $1000. Not to say gas, food, and odds and ends like doorknobs etc we are waiting on. We also need radio airtime money ( I am over due) and newsletter money. The newsletter if it does not hurry and go out I will lose the newsletter support which pays much of the normal bills. So please lift us up in prayer as again I wait on material money.  The LORD  bless thee and keep thee; The LORD make His face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee;The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee shalom. (peace)Bemidbar (Numbers)  6:24-26 In Yeshua's Name, Bro. Dan, Pastor of Messiah's Branch

Daniel 12:2-3

 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.  And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

Shalom In Yeshua Messiah,

Well the move is getting closer this Friday will be the last feed day until we get moved and open. Tuesday I made 13 dozen sandwhiches and served white meat chicken-n-noodles, mashed taters, corn -n- green beans mixed and bread-n- butter for dinner. I paid all the shut off notices and three other bills I believe I have four bills left to pay this month, Radio needs paid and the newsletter still needs to go out. Yahweh's in control but remember He uses His people to provide. Please take a minute to seek Him and ask if your a vessel He is waiting to use in these works. I'm excited about getting everything done and moved this next week I know Yahweh has it already planned paid for and worked out but it still hard to live in such faith. I'm getting better and stonger in my Faith and I just know that He brought us this far and will carry us to the finish line. The food shipment will be here Monday we will have to rent a traylor to go pick it up. The source whom had said they could help turned out they couldn't. This shipment is going to stock the new place for about six months if my understanding of what is there is correct. I will be able to order more in the future priced by the case six cans to a case all #10 cans. Praise Yahweh! (Thanks Bro. Brent )

Keep us in prayer as we finish up this week and enter into our last week before deadline on getting moved & FINISHED.

We Thank all of you who have helped with this tremendous work of Faith.

There will be Many who will be lead to new LIFE 

we will see Blessing after Blessing come from this work.

Next weeks Torah Chukat "Ordinance of" Numbers 19:1-22:1 Haftarah Judges 11:1-33

Gospel John 3:10-21

Now Korah, son of Izhar son of Kohath son of Levi, betook himself, along with Dathan and Abiram sons of Eliab, and On son of Peleth--descendants of Reuben--to rise up against Moses, together with two hundred and fifty Israelites, chieftains of the community, chosen in the assembly, men of repute. They combined against Moses and Aaron and said to them, "You have gone too far! For all the community are holy, all of them, and the Lord is in their midst. Why then do you raise yourselves above the Lord's congregation?" When Moses heard this, he fell on his face. Then he spoke to Korah and all his company, saying, "Come morning, the Lord will make known who is His and who is holy, and will grant him access to Himself; He will grant access to the one He has chosen. Do this: You, Korah and all your band, take fire pans, and tomorrow put fire in them and lay incense on them before the Lord. Then the man whom the Lord chooses, he shall be the holy one. You have gone too far, sons of Levi!" Moses said further to Korah, "Hear me, sons of Levi. Is it not enough for you that the God of Israel has set you apart from the community of Israel and given you access to Him, to perform the duties of the Lord's Tabernacle and to minister to the community and serve them? Now that He has advanced you and all your fellow Levites with you, do you seek the priesthood too? Truly, it is against the Lord that you and all your company have banded together.  For who is Aaron that you should rail against him?"

Moses sent for Dathan and Abiram, sons of Eliab; but they said, "We will not come! Is it not enough that you brought us from a land flowing with milk and honey to have us die in the wilderness, that you would also lord it over us? Even if you had brought us to a land flowing with milk and honey, and given us possession of fields and vineyards, should you gouge out those men's eyes? We will not come!" Moses was much aggrieved and he said to the Lord, "Pay no regard to their oblation. I have not taken the ass of any one of them, nor have I wronged any one of them." And Moses said to Korah, "Tomorrow, you and all your company appear before the Lord, you and they and Aaron. Each of you take his fire pan and lay incense on it, and each of you bring his fire pan before the Lord, two hundred and fifty fire pans; you and Aaron also [bring] your fire pans." Each of them took his fire pan, put fire in it, laid incense on it, and took his place at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, as did Moses and Aaron. Korah gathered the whole community against them at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting. Then the Presence of the Lord appeared to the whole community. And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, "Stand back from this community that I may annihilate them in an instant!" But they fell on their faces and said, "O God, Source of the breath of all flesh! When one man sins, will You be wrathful with the whole community?"

The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, "Speak to the community and say: Withdraw from about the abodes of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram." Moses rose and went to Dathan and Abiram, the elders of Israel following him. He addressed the community, saying, "Move away from the tents of these wicked men and touch nothing that belongs to them, lest you be wiped out for all their sins." So they withdrew from about the abodes of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. Now Dathan and Abiram had come out and they stood at the entrance of their tents, with their wives, their children, and their little ones. And Moses said, "By this you shall know that it was the Lord who sent me to do all these things; that they are not of my own devising: if these men die as all men do, if their lot be the common fate of all mankind, it was not the Lord who sent me. But if the Lord brings about something unheard-of, so that the ground opens its mouth and swallows them up with all that belongs to them, and they go down alive into Sheol, you shall know that these men have spurned the Lord." Scarcely had he finished speaking all these words when the ground under them burst asunder, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up with their households, all Korah's people and all their possessions. They went down alive into Sheol, with all that belonged to them; the earth closed over them and they vanished from the midst of the congregation. All Israel around them fled at their shrieks, for they said, "The earth might swallow us!" And a fire went forth from the Lord and consumed the two hundred and fifty men offering the incense.

The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: Order Eleazar son of Aaron the priest to remove the fire pans--for they have become sacred--from among the charred remains; and scatter the coals abroad. [Remove] the fire pans of those who have sinned at the cost of their lives, and let them be made into hammered sheets as plating for the altar--for once they have been used for offering to the Lord, they have become sacred--and let them serve as a warning to the people of Israel. Eleazar the priest took the copper fire pans which had been used for offering by those who died in the fire; and they were hammered into plating for the altar, as the Lord had ordered him through Moses. It was to be a reminder to the Israelites, so that no outsider--one not of Aaron's offspring--should presume to offer incense before the Lord and suffer the fate of Korah and his band. Next day the whole Israelite community railed against Moses and Aaron, saying, "You two have brought death upon the Lord's people!" But as the community gathered against them, Moses and Aaron turned toward the Tent of Meeting; the cloud had covered it and the Presence of the Lord appeared. 

When Moses and Aaron reached the Tent of Meeting, the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, "Remove yourselves from this community, that I may annihilate them in an instant." They fell on their faces. Then Moses said to Aaron, "Take the fire pan, and put on it fire from the altar. Add incense and take it quickly to the community and make expiation for them. For wrath has gone forth from the Lord: the plague has begun!" Aaron took it, as Moses had ordered, and ran to the midst of the congregation, where the plague had begun among the people. He put on the incense and made expiation for the people; he stood between the dead and the living until the plague was checked. Those who died of the plague came to fourteen thousand and seven hundred, aside from those who died on account of Korah. Aaron then returned to Moses at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, since the plague was checked. The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: Speak to the Israelite people and take from them--from the chieftains of their ancestral houses--one staff for each chieftain of an ancestral house: twelve staffs in all. Inscribe each man's name on his staff, there being one staff for each head of an ancestral house; also inscribe Aaron's name on the staff of Levi. Deposit them in the Tent of Meeting before the Pact, where I meet with you. The staff of the man whom I choose shall sprout, and I will rid Myself of the incessant mutterings of the Israelites against you. Moses spoke thus to the Israelites. Their chieftains gave him a staff for each chieftain of an ancestral house, twelve staffs in all; among these staffs was that of Aaron. Moses deposited the staffs before the Lord, in the Tent of the Pact. The next day Moses entered the Tent of the Pact, and there the staff of Aaron of the house of Levi had sprouted: it had brought forth sprouts, produced blossoms, and borne almonds. Moses then brought out all the staffs from before the Lord to all the Israelites; each identified and recovered his staff.

The Lord said to Moses, "Put Aaron's staff back before the Pact, to be kept as a lesson to rebels, so that their mutterings against Me may cease, lest they die." This Moses did; just as the Lord had commanded him, so he did. But the Israelites said to Moses, "Lo, we perish! We are lost, all of us lost! Everyone who so much as ventures near the Lord's Tabernacle must die. Alas, we are doomed to perish!"  The Lord said to Aaron: You and your sons and the ancestral house under your charge shall bear any guilt connected with the sanctuary; you and your sons alone shall bear any guilt connected with your priesthood. You shall also associate with yourself your kinsmen the tribe of Levi, your ancestral tribe, to be attached to you and to minister to you, while you and your sons under your charge are before the Tent of the Pact. They shall discharge their duties to you and to the Tent as a whole, but they must not have any contact with the furnishings of the Shrine or with the altar, lest both they and you die. They shall be attached to you and discharge the duties of the Tent of Meeting, all the service of the Tent; but no outsider shall intrude upon you as you discharge the duties connected with the Shrine and the altar, that wrath may not again strike the Israelites.

I hereby take your fellow Levites from among the Israelites; they are assigned to you in dedication to the Lord, to do the work of the Tent of Meeting; while you and your sons shall be careful to perform your priestly duties in everything pertaining to the altar and to what is behind the curtain. I make your priesthood a service of dedication; any outsider who encroaches shall be put to death. The Lord spoke further to Aaron: I hereby give you charge of My gifts, all the sacred donations of the Israelites; I grant them to you and to your sons as a perquisite, a due for all time. This shall be yours from the most holy sacrifices, the offerings by fire: every such offering that they render to Me as most holy sacrifices, namely, every meal offering, sin offering, and guilt offering of theirs, shall belong to you and your sons. You shall partake of them as most sacred donations: only males may eat them; you shall treat them as consecrated. This, too, shall be yours: the gift offerings of their contributions, all the elevation offerings of the Israelites, I give to you, to your sons, and to the daughters that are with you, as a due for all time; everyone of your household who is clean may eat it.

All the best of the new oil, wine, and grain--the choice parts that they present to the Lord--I give to you. The first fruits of everything in their land, that they bring to the Lord, shall be yours; everyone of your household who is clean may eat them. Everything that has been proscribed in Israel shall be yours. The first issue of the womb of every being, man or beast, that is offered to the Lord, shall be yours; but you shall have the first-born of man redeemed, and you shall also have the firstling of unclean animals redeemed. Take as their redemption price, from the age of one month up, the money equivalent of five shekels by the sanctuary weight, which is twenty gerahs. But the firstlings of cattle, sheep, or goats may not be redeemed; they are consecrated. You shall dash their blood against the altar, and turn their fat into smoke as an offering by fire for a pleasing odor to the Lord. But their meat shall be yours: it shall be yours like the breast of elevation offering and like the right thigh. All the sacred gifts that the Israelites set aside for the Lord I give to you, to your sons, and to the daughters that are with you, as a due for all time. It shall be an everlasting covenant of salt before the Lord for you and for your offspring as well. And the Lord said to Aaron: You shall, however, have no territorial share among them or own any portion in their midst; I am your portion and your share among the Israelites. And to the Levites I hereby give all the tithes in Israel as their share in return for the services that they perform, the services of the Tent of Meeting. Henceforth, Israelites shall not trespass on the Tent of Meeting, and thus incur guilt and die: only Levites shall perform the services of the Tent of Meeting; others would incur guilt. It is the law for all time throughout the ages. But they shall have no territorial share among the Israelites; for it is the tithes set aside by the Israelites as a gift to the Lord that I give to the Levites as their share. Therefore I have said concerning them: They shall have no territorial share among the Israelites.

The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: Speak to the Levites and say to them: When you receive from the Israelites their tithes, which I have assigned to you as your share, you shall set aside from them one-tenth of the tithe as a gift to the Lord. This shall be accounted to you as your gift. As with the new grain from the threshing floor or the flow from the vat, so shall you on your part set aside a gift for the Lord from all the tithes that you receive from the Israelites; and from them you shall bring the gift for the Lord to Aaron the priest. You shall set aside all gifts due to the Lord from everything that is donated to you, from each thing its best portion, the part thereof that is to be consecrated.
Say to them further: When you have removed the best part from it, you Levites may consider it the same as the yield of threshing floor or vat. You and your households may eat it anywhere, for it is your recompense for your services in the Tent of Meeting. You will incur no guilt through it, once you have removed the best part from it; but you must not profane the sacred donations of the Israelites, lest you die.

Mission Updates: Greetings Saints in His Perfect Peace, It was so hot as we worked today; the heat in the building was so very hot as there is no air moving inside the building. I was really just killing time as two of my main workers were out sick today, well as of late there has only been 3 to 5 of us and today it was just me and one other. The people out on the street all watch daily waiting for the time in which we will open. At least on the days we will be open they will not have to walk across town to eat or to get help. The closet place most days is on the other side of town to get food and help of any kind. I have come to know my neighbors and they me, I watch and talk with them daily sinners of all sorts. The street has many prostitutes and really they are pleasant but misguided people, I wonder when I look at them just how long they will make it before getting something like A I Ds and passing it on. I do not think they would pass it out of malice but just out of desperation and that is the word for the street out side, desperate. Day by day more homeless come by and wonder when we will be open, it sometimes seems the whole town is waiting, I know the Lord has it under control but this place will be a shock to us at first until we adjust to the higher volume of food and well expenses. Monday again was a bum day, everything seemed not working, I was even told that this was the last time I could fill up the donated dumpster, you see I guess they charge by the pound to pick it up and he never thought we would use even one, we have filled it twice and it is about the biggest dumpster you can get and right now I am holding back some trash in bags so I can put other stuff in it. I do not have the money to get one of these or even a regular dumpster, but I would image the Lord has it worked out. The electric guys told me that tomorrow was a goal to turn on the electric, I am praying that the air works without having to confront the man we are buying the building from. I think the electric guys will be able to handle the air, you see we are so very close but a day like today can be really bad and set us back. I did not have the extra gas to come home the 60 miles so mom had my 17-year-old drive over and get me. I needed RR or I was going to just shut down. I came home and slept with my wife a while and now I feel pretty good. I did work on our mail out newsletter but I stopped, as I do not want it too out of date when it mails, you see the bills are not paid yet and the newsletter has no money to get printed. Not good much of our support comes from it for the normal ministry bills. It was supposed to go out on the 1^st. it is now the 12^th.  I pray all who read this realize that we really need your help to get this done.  I have about $25 and that is not enough to get through another day period. We are nearing the end of the project, I mean touch up paint, trim boards, kitchen floor, sink, and bath room needs snaked. We drive or borrow the neighbor's bathroom next door. The snaking for the bathroom would cost $100 to $150 as I asked today, but I am praying it's donated as we could sure use it. It really is small things that are a problem like money for the Kitchen floor, gas, etc. but look what the Lord has done by faith and just how many people will be helped and some even saved. The Angels rejoice over just one sinner but we have seen many miracles. Will you help, can you help,? Just take it to the Lord and say by next month if everything goes right then I will no longer be begging you for money to help the poor……..That is if the Lord will it we will be done, for we know not what the morrow brings only that we should labor as long as there is light and even after......If you live in Wichita and are reading this pray about helping all you can,  these are your neighbors…. And yes we still need the picnic tables and the awnings built to shelter those that sit or sleep out side!

 

 

 It is now Wednesday,  Today I will start off with radio, tomorrow is my last paid radio day so we are critical to get a $190 payment to them for another month. Yes I can pay pal it but remember process fees so to donate it to me is one fee then when I send to them is another so we need to raise $200 for that. If you are blessed by radio you should donate to air-time as radio is radio it costs. Even the podcast page cost's a yearly fee of $140 which is do sometime in July. Radio will expand greatly after the building is done you will all really love it! I am so glad that the new building is getting done. I need to be home some of the time so I can do more pod-casts and keep getting you up to date guests, this in it's self is a reason we need badly to get done with the new building. I think once open it will bring in more local support, but we must get it done and to do that I need to raise at the very least $2,000 to get done in two weeks. I feel kind of like a long distance runner I can now see the finish line but I am running out of wind. Indeed it has been a long run. I just stepped out in faith over the whole thing, if I had looked ahead at the $1,000's of dollars that this has taken then I might have stalled. I just trusted the voice of the Lord telling us we were not done yet in Wichita and pushed forward. Now the race is drawing to a close, I can really see the end but I need more air and a burst of energy to complete the course set before me. Yesterday a couple of things happened; I went to an AECH meeting, a group of concerned people fighting for a 24/7 shelter and Homeless rights. They have had rallies out in front of the library and other places making Wichita stand up and take notice in fact they started a task force on chronic homelessness and how to solve it. Their decision will come Sept. 1^st, 2007. So they are now doing rallies again this summer. Yesterday I went to their meeting as I was invited; well they basically want me to be the main speaker at the next rally on July 15^th, a candle light vigil for the homeless. They also gave me a donation when I walked and told me I would be getting a $500 check from them later this week, Thursday I think. That check is going to the Rotor rooter people to fix the toilets, their may be some money left over from that. I talked with my old landlord and we must for sure be out completely by the 1^st of July. Saints this means this week and next week is critical in getting things done if the money is not here we have no place to go borrow it etc so we will just be stopped. This place has taken up so much time that the newsletter mail out did not go out and because of that mom told me today we have shut off on mission electric. She said she really needs $500 by the week end and another $500 next week. The newsletter would have brought that money in but we have not had the money to do it $300. We have sacrificed much to get this place going for the poor, it's not like I am building a place for a rich congregation only a place to help the poor and give them the gospel. I have a little money and I am going after some wood trim. After that guess what I am broke again………please pray for this final push, oh yes I have someone that will help us pick up the 2700 pounds of food, pray for us please. The LORD  bless thee and keep thee; The LORD make His face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee; The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee shalom. (peace) Bemidbar (Numbers)  6:24-26

In Yeshua's Name, Bro. Dan, Pastor of Messiah's Branch

Psalms 12

Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.   They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.  The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things:  Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?  For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.  The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.  Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.  The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted. 

Shalom In Yeshua Messiah,

What a week this has been trial after trial but we must press on ! There are so many needs I do not want to list them all only ask that you all seek our Father about helping these works. The only way you'll know if your a vessel of support is to ask Him.

Tuesday I made eleven dozen sandwiches and served hamburger rice, fried potatoes, green beans and bread -n- butter for dinner. We were packed with people coming and going all day, many stood around outside because of no room inside.

The bills are still waiting to be paid, I was able to pay three bills two of which were on shut off notice. I just got a shut off for the Mission electric yesterday but I'm faithful the Lord will get it paid. I also need to pay radio for another four weeks 190.00 and pay for some supplies I ordered extra to come with the food shipment 150.00 first of next week. The newsletter will go out Friday however that 300.00 still needs to come in and Dad still needs money to finish up the kitchen and a few other odds an ends at the new Messiah's Branch home.

Please pray for dad (Pastor Dan) he is wearing out. Being away from us all this time has been really hard for all of us mainly him. We are all ready for the move to be over and settled into Messiah's Branch's New home. There will be so many blessings by the new services we will be able to give. We are offering a mail service, mailing address, phone number for messages, A phone booth for fifteen minute calls anywhere in the USA. Clothes room , food as always "if you leave hungry it's your own fault" our love, counseling an speading of the WORD & Messiah's Love for each and every one of us.

Pray about being a part of this we need you to get these finishing touches DONE!

Shalom we love you & I will write more on these works Next Update:
