2nd Month [Shteym] 1st Quarter Shabbat

Observation of the first quarter Shabbat this evening for the month of Shteym 2022. Praise The Most High and be encouraged!

Shabbat Meditation:

'Where do wars and fighting among you come from? Don’t they come from your pleasures that war in your members? You lust, and don’t have. You murder and covet, and can’t obtain. You fight and make war. You don’t have, because you don’t ask. You ask, and don’t receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures. You adulterers and adulteresses, don’t you know that friendship with the world is hostility against The Most High? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of our Elohim. So, Humble yourselves in the sight of The Most High, and He will exalt you. '

James [Yakoob] 4:1-4,10

Shalom!

'May The Most High bless you, and keep you [protect you, sustain you, and guard you]; The Most High make His face shine upon you [with favor], And be gracious to you [surrounding you with love and kindness]; May The Most High lift up His countenance (face) upon you [with divine approval], And give you Shalom [peace and blessings]." Numbers 6:24-26
