You shall further instruct the Israelites to bring you clear oil of beaten olives for lighting, for kindling lamps regularly. Aaron and his sons shall set them up in the Tent of Meeting, outside the curtain which is over [the Ark of] the Pact, [to burn] from evening to morning before the Lord. It shall be a due from the Israelites for all time, throughout the ages. You shall bring forward your brother Aaron, with his sons, from among the Israelites, to serve Me as priests: Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron. Make sacral vestments for your brother Aaron, for dignity and adornment. Next you shall instruct all who are skillful, whom I have endowed with the gift of skill, to make Aaron's vestments, for consecrating him to serve Me as priest. These are the vestments they are to make: a breastpiece, an ephod, a robe, a fringed tunic, a headdress, and a sash. They shall make those sacral vestments for your brother Aaron and his sons, for priestly service to Me; they, therefore, shall receive the gold, the blue, purple, and crimson yarns, and the fine linen.
They shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, purple, and crimson yarns, and of fine twisted linen, worked into designs. It shall have two shoulder-pieces attached; they shall be attached at its two ends. And the decorated band that is upon it shall be made like it, of one piece with it: of gold, of blue, purple, and crimson yarns, and of fine twisted linen. Then take two lazuli stones and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel: six of their names on the one stone, and the names of the remaining six on the other stone, in the order of their birth. On the two stones you shall make seal engravings--the work of a lapidary--of the names of the sons of Israel. Having bordered them with frames of gold, attach the two stones to the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, as stones for remembrance of the Israelite people, whose names Aaron shall carry upon his two shoulder-pieces for remembrance before the Lord. Then make frames of gold and two chains of pure gold; braid these like corded work, and fasten the corded chains to the frames. You shall make a breastpiece of decision, worked into a design; make it in the style of the ephod: make it of gold, of blue, purple, and crimson yarns, and of fine twisted linen. It shall be square and doubled, a span in length and a span in width. Set in it mounted stones, in four rows of stones. The first row shall be a row of carnelian, chrysolite, and emerald; the second row: a turquoise, a sapphire, and an amethyst; the third row: a jacinth, an agate, and a crystal; and the fourth row: a beryl, a lapis lazuli, and a jasper. They shall be framed with gold in their mountings. The stones shall correspond [in number] to the names of the sons of Israel: twelve, corresponding to their names. They shall be engraved like seals, each with its name, for the twelve tribes. On the breastpiece make braided chains of corded work in pure gold. Make two rings of gold on the breastpiece, and fasten the two rings at the two ends of the breastpiece, attaching the two golden cords to the two rings at the ends of the breastpiece. Then fasten the two ends of the cords to the two frames, which you shall attach to the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, at the front. Make two rings of gold and attach them to the two ends of the breastpiece, at its inner edge, which faces the ephod. And make two other rings of gold and fasten them on the front of the ephod, low on the two shoulder-pieces, close to its seam above the decorated band. The breastpiece shall be held in place by a cord of blue from its rings to the rings of the ephod, so that the breastpiece rests on the decorated band and does not come loose from the ephod. Aaron shall carry the names of the sons of Israel on the breastpiece of decision over his heart, when he enters the sanctuary, for remembrance before the Lord at all times. Inside the breastpiece of decision you shall place the Urim and Thummim, so that they are over Aaron's heart when he comes before the Lord. Thus Aaron shall carry the instrument of decision for the Israelites over his heart before the Lord at all times. You shall make the robe of the ephod of pure blue. The opening for the head shall be in the middle of it; the opening shall have a binding of woven work round about--it shall be like the opening of a coat of mail--so that it does not tear. On its hem make pomegranates of blue, purple, and crimson yarns, all around the hem, with bells of gold between them all around: a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, all around the hem of the robe. Aaron shall wear it while officiating, so that the sound of it is heard when he comes into the sanctuary before the Lord and when he goes out--that he may not die.
You shall make a frontlet of pure gold and engrave on it the seal inscription: "Holy to the Lord." Suspend it on a cord of blue, so that it may remain on the headdress; it shall remain on the front of the headdress. It shall be on Aaron's forehead, that Aaron may take away any sin arising from the holy things that the Israelites consecrate, from any of their sacred donations; it shall be on his forehead at all times, to win acceptance for them before the Lord.
You shall make the fringed tunic of fine linen.
You shall make the headdress of fine linen
You shall make the sash of embroidered work.
And for Aaron's sons also you shall make tunics, and make sashes for them, and make turbans for them, for dignity and adornment. Put these on your brother Aaron and on his sons as well; anoint them, and ordain them and consecrate them to serve Me as priests.
You shall also make for them linen breeches to cover their nakedness; they shall extend from the hips to the thighs. They shall be worn by Aaron and his sons when they enter the Tent of Meeting or when they approach the altar to officiate in the sanctuary, so that they do not incur punishment and die. It shall be a law for all time for him and for his offspring to come. This is what you shall do to them in consecrating them to serve Me as priests: Take a young bull of the herd and two rams without blemish; also unleavened bread, unleavened cakes with oil mixed in, and unleavened wafers spread with oil--make these of choice wheat flour. Place these in one basket and present them in the basket, along with the bull and the two rams. Lead Aaron and his sons up to the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, and wash them with water. Then take the vestments, and clothe Aaron with the tunic, the robe of the ephod, the ephod, and the breastpiece, and gird him with the decorated band of the ephod. Put the headdress on his head, and place the holy diadem upon the headdress. Take the anointing oil and pour it on his head and anoint him. Then bring his sons forward; clothe them with tunics and wind turbans upon them. And gird both Aaron and his sons with sashes. And so they shall have priesthood as their right for all time. You shall then ordain Aaron and his sons. Lead the bull up to the front of the Tent of Meeting, and let Aaron and his sons lay their hands upon the head of the bull. Slaughter the bull before the Lord, at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, and take some of the bull's blood and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger; then pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar. Take all the fat that covers the entrails, the protuberance on the liver, and the two kidneys with the fat on them, and turn them into smoke upon the altar. The rest of the flesh of the bull, its hide, and its dung shall be put to the fire outside the camp; it is a sin offering. Next take the one ram, and let Aaron and his sons lay their hands upon the ram's head. Slaughter the ram, and take its blood and dash it against all sides of the altar. Cut up the ram into sections, wash its entrails and legs, and put them with its quarters and its head. Turn all of the ram into smoke upon the altar. It is a burnt offering to the Lord, a pleasing odor, an offering by fire to the Lord. You shall make an altar for burning incense; make it of acacia wood. It shall be a cubit long and a cubit wide--it shall be square--and two cubits high, its horns of one piece with it. Overlay it with pure gold: its top, its sides round about, and its horns; and make a gold molding for it round about. And make two gold rings for it under its molding; make them on its two side walls, on opposite sides. They shall serve as holders for poles with which to carry it. Make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold.
Place it in front of the curtain that is over the Ark of the Pact--in front of the cover that is over the Pact--where I will meet with you. On it Aaron shall burn aromatic incense: he shall burn it every morning when he tends the lamps, and Aaron shall burn it at twilight when he lights the lamps--a regular incense offering before the Lord throughout the ages. You shall not offer alien incense on it, or a burnt offering or a meal offering; neither shall you pour a libation on it. Once a year Aaron shall perform purification upon its horns with blood of the sin offering of purification; purification shall be performed upon it once a year throughout the ages. It is most holy to the Lord.

Mission Updates: Mark 9:23
23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
Greetings Saints in His Perfect Peace,
First radio this week we have Andrew Strom on with me talking about the economy crisis and how to be safe as well as judgments....Okay I have not gotten a response from my last real mission update about the van so I will tell you how yesterday went. With the van not drivable we remember my wife's brother Johnny had just been over a few days prior asking if I need the use of her mother van, you see grandma passed on last year and the van is just sitting. The title is too messed up to really retag not worth the trouble but it does have a month left on it. We retrieved it from her brother's lot on Monday night, it had to be jump-started but it drove home, Mom of course placed insurance on it. I had my son put the battery out of our van into before he left for work on Tuesday. Getting up thinking all was fine we got ready to go and of course the van would not start. Now mom's little car had almost a flat on it so it could not be driven so we had to try and get the van going, so I helped Tony change the batteries and still it did not work, but at the last moment Tony found a wire off and it started! The night before the heater fan was not working, so checking it I found a fuse gone, so I took the window fuse out and got the heater working, great lots of heat and it seemed to run okay off to Wichita. Getting there late many people were waiting on us as was Justin whose family has been helping almost since we opened the door on the new place. They have a really cool family and they are Messianic also. But Justin was there and said I could use his GMC truck, or suburban to pick the people up as the van was small and very cramped. I told him no I need to see how many people I could haul as I was going to have to use the van until The Father came through with something else or month which ever comes first. When I pulled up back at our place with the second load of people the van was over heated. So I then used his vehicle for 3 more trips. This meant the place was packed, as it normally is this time of month with plenty of new faces. I spent the day tending to various needs and visitors also trying to get parts for the van. Finally I opted for buying a fan motor, thermostat, and switch praying that it hoping it would be one of the three, not really having any extra money to spend on it especially when I can only drive it a month. During the day I dealt with a man dying of cancer who is trying to get a bus ticket to a treatment center to try and save his life, without treatment he is dead, but I do not have the money for a bus ticket. I told another ministry about him and hooked them up but I am not sure what is going to a happen. With me if I had the $100 I would just buy the ticket and give him the change to eat on for the trip but I do not have a $100 in fact I my self am broke. I gave out medications and other items I had as well as blankets. Then it was well after dinner the van was not together and did not look like it would be put together with out some other help. Justin then offered for me to drive his vehicle home and bring it back on Friday. Great it runs good which made for a pleasant drive home and brought back memories of the suburban that we drove as a ministry vehicle after one was donated to us. I really like it but finally the trans went out. On the way home I stopped and checked the oil it was 4 quarts low! Wow! Anyway while we had use of it I took mom to Sam's club so she could pick up cups and other need items. In fact we ran out during supper but these wonderful people from another ministry went and got some cups. You know that is the way it is around Messiah's Branch when something is needed the Father has it there somehow some way. And we did have Torah study late but we had it Amen. So now when Friday comes I do not know if the little mini-van will fix so I can use it for a month. We are critical for a replacement van as I am very unsure about putting a new engine in a 1989 van. But I am open for however the Father fixes this situation as somehow we will of course get through it but we are in a terrible hardship. December was supposed to be the worst month for donations with people pulling up out of it and donating with income tax checks but that does not seem so right now. I have no money for the mail out newsletter and it needs to go out so the people on my list will know we need help or rather a van or something. So Really if you have never helped us please pray about it as we are in a crisis. We need transportation right now and dependable transportation. If you are supporter then please pray about it and see what you can do or are led to we need an engine put in the old, van, or a vehicle donated or something like yesterday…..Again the preacher seems to be the poorest guy on the block
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

Revelation 22:14 - Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Shalom In Yeshua Messiah
It has been another very trying week for us with the van blowing up and then the loaner over heating and breaking down . Yahweh is in control and we know He will Provide for His works. Friday Justin and Aaron helped the rest of the family were sick and were still running fevers on Tuesday. Justin made six dozen egg, cheese and lunchmeat sandwiches on Friday and seven on Tuesday. I made goulash, fried potatoes, green beans and buttered hot rolls Tuesday for dinner and right now I can't remember what I made last Friday. We had another ministry bring in care packs on Tuesday, they passed them out as we served dinner. I was able to get most of the bills paid that were is but now I have a gas bill that is 303.00 and the newsletter needs to go out Tuesday another 350.00 then I have around 700.00 left in Feb. bills that need to be paid. I did get 15.00 worth of cold meds and stocked the Mission that cost 202.00. Pleas pray about helping as we know Yahweh Provides but it ONLY through His People that will obey His voice that He is able to do that. Please add our transportation need to your prayers. I Must close for now because time is short and I have several things left to do before leaving to go feed. We love you all Keep us in Prayer Shalom sisterlinda/family & Messiah's Branch
