Well, we left off last week in chapter three of Ezra, and now we're ready for verse eight. And again, we're seeing a restoration. We saw last week that under the leadership of Ezra, there were people that they returned to Judah, more specifically, they came to Jerusalem, and they began to do something. We saw that there was a commitment from the people to build the altar, and we're going to see at this time that there's going to be additional work being done.To donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 1 (407) 421-9934Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephonehttps://get.theapp.co/yjjqhttps://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, we're now ready to move into chapter three of the book of Ezra. Now, this third chapter is about change. This is who God is, and what did we see? We saw that there was people in exile, the Babylonian exile, but God, at the right time, exactly after these 70 years were completed, He began to do what He said He was always going to do, and that is to bring the people back to the land. And I want us to look at this scripture again, Ezra chapter three, and verse verse one. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, last week we started the book of Ezra, we completed the first chapter, and now we're ready for chapter two. Now, what are we going to encounter in this chapter? Again, the faithfulness of God. I cannot speak too much about God's faithfulness, He is forever faithful. Now, God's faithfulness is always related to His truth. What does that mean? It means that God is going to reveal truth, and then He is going to act in light of His truth. So, if we want to experience God, we need to be people that are committed to the truth of God.To donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 1 (407) 421-9934Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephonehttps://get.theapp.co/yjjqhttps://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, we have completed our study of the book of Numbers, and now we're going to move into another book, and that is the book of Ezra. And with Ezra, we're also going to continue. After we conclude, God willing, the book of Ezra, we are going to conclude or continue into the book of Nehemia or Nehemiah, and we see that these two men were very influential in bringing about a spiritual renewal for the children of Israel.To donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 1 (407) 421-9934Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephonehttps://get.theapp.co/yjjqhttps://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Thing that we can say about the life of David is that it was difficult, and why was that? Not necessarily because of sin or disobedience, but rather David, as we've talked about several times, he was a man after God's own heart, he wanted to please God, he wanted to serve God. And when we are committed to the purposes and the plans of God, be prepared to suffer. The world does not like faithful people, and those who belong to the world will come against you. And today's study, we're going to see an excellent example of such a reality.https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephonehttps://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

In this installment, we're going to see that David is going to be rejected by the Philistines. Now, in one sense, that is a very wise decision, because David has proved over and over that he is loyal to God. I can say that differently, that he demonstrates faithfulness to God, and therefore even at those times when David went out in order to wage war, he did not do so as he said against the children of Israel, but rather he did it in actuality against the Philistines, bringing God's judgment upon this wicked people, these people who engage in idolatry, who reject the biblical God, the God of Israel.https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephonehttps://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Let's begin with a very simple principle. If you are not interested in God's will, being faithful to Him, carrying out His purposes and priorities, then do not expect God will be responsive to you, to your prayers, to your supplications, to those things that you want him to do in your life. If you're not committed to him, God will not be committed to you. And you say, "Where's that taught in the Bible? Very simply, the Bible teaches, and Messiah taught this: the measure that you use will be measured back to you.https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephonehttps://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

We are going to see in an undeniable way that Shaul, the king of Israel, was not a faithful man. Now this has been documented in many different ways throughout First Samuel, but now we're going to see how evil of a leader he is, that he has no faith, he does not rely upon God. He does not believe in Him. Rather, we are going to see that He engages in sorcery. Why? Because of fear. And when we love God with all of our heart, with all of our soul, and with all of our very essence, that love for God is going to remove fear from us, so that we can always follow His truth, that we can be faithful to carry out the will of God.https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

David is indeed a man of God, and David is going to demonstrate humility, and he is going to do something that shows that he is not an enemy of King Shaul, but rather a servant. With that said, take out your Bible and look with me to First Samuel, and chapter 27 Again, First Samuel and Chapter 27 Now, David is going to do something that is quite remarkable, because he is going to go to the enemy, in other words, the greatest enemy that the children of Israel had during this time of Israel's history were the Philistines, and David is going to go there and dwell among them, but we're going to learn a very important truth, and what is that truth? https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

I want to begin this message by talking about spiritual bondage. Anyone who is still in bondage to sin is not a true believer, and there are certain manifestations which reveal to us that a person is not a believer, and what are some of those. Well, when someone acknowledges over and over sin in his or her life, this is a sign that this is not a true child of God, meaning that they have not been born again. Now, let's be clear, we all fall short of the glory of God. https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, God willing, we are going to complete our study of the book of Numbers in this lesson. We're ready now for the final chapter, chapter 36 So, I invite you to take out your Bible and look with me to that location, the book of Numbers, the final chapter, chapter 36 Now here we're going to revisit a family that we talked about earlier, several weeks ago, when we looked at this family who had no sons but only daughters, and we learned that, according to the goodness of God, that also ladies are able to inherit. We see this, but today we're going to find a clarification of that. It doesn't change anything, but we're going to see a risk that could happen and a restriction that is placed upon these women. https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, take out your Bible and look with me to the book of Numbers and chapter 35 The book of Numbers and chapter 35 Now, in our first session that we completed last week, we did verses one through eight, and we talked about the Levitical cities, and we found something. These Levitical cities are also a portion of them are also going to be cities of refuge. And now this is what we're going to focus in on, the cities of refuge. What are they, and where are they? https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, we are going to begin chapter 35 of this book of Numbers, and we have only two chapters left, all of chapter 35 and then the final chapter is chapter 36 Now, in this section, we're going to be very brief tonight. We are only going to look at an opening section, which consists of eight verses, and these eight verses relate to the Levites. We know something. We know that God is giving the children of Israel land as an inheritance, but we find that the Levites, they do not receive land, meaning there is not a special inheritance for the Levite, that Levitical tribe, but we are going to see tonight that they are going to get cities, and where do they get the land for these cities from all the tribes of Israel.

Well, in this study, we're going to be looking at one chapter, and that is the book of Numbers, and chapter 34 God willing, we're going to do all of this chapter in this time of study. And what is this chapter about? Well, we see it's a chapter about the the receiving of the land of Canaan, and we see something very important. We see that this distribution of the land, this inheritance, is going to be done by lot, meaning that it's not going to be left to chance. https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, we are going to look at a very important passage. Now, when we read the content of this passage, we may not see the significance at first. Now, when I look at this and I'm talking about the book of Numbers and chapter 33 so look, there with me, the book of Numbers. Chapter 33 This begins a section in the Torah reading called mas a. Now, mas a comes from a Hebrew word, linsoah.

Well, now I would invite you to pick up where we left off last week in the book of Numbers and chapter 32 so the book of Numbers chapter 32 we're going to begin where we left off in verse 16. Now you'll recall that there is a happening going on. The children of Reuven and the children of God, they wanted something. They did not want to move across the Jordan River. But rather, they wanted to inherit the land east of the Jordan River, and what we would call Jordan of today, and parts of Syria as well. This is where they wanted to make their home. https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Purpose of this passage that we're going to study together at this time is for David to demonstrate that he had no evil intent against King Shaul, but rather he came as a faithful servant to the king. This was true in the past, and it's still true now at this present time, even though over and over Shaul wanted to put David to death. Well, with that said, take out your Bible and look with me to First Samuel, chapter 26 To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, take out your Bible and look with me, if you would, to the book of Numbers. And chapter 32 the Book of Numbers and chapter 32 now in this we're going to see a request that comes from two families or two tribes. I'm speaking about the tribe of Reuven and the tribe of God. What were these two tribes? Well, they, in a unique way, had much cattle, and therefore they were seeking an inheritance. And we're going to see over and over in this scripture, God is doing something. https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Because of David's faithfulness to God's plan for his life. What is David experiencing? He is experiencing persecution, and hear this carefully, persecution from the government. And this is something that we need to be prepared for, as well as believers, because whenever we walk in obedience, whenever we are committed to faithfulness, according to the truth of Scripture, we will suffer.

Well, we are coming to two chapters that are most similar. We're going to see that, according to the law of Moses, that there were sacrifices and offerings which were required for every day, and we see that on special days, like the new moon, which represents a new month, and also for the biblical festivals I'm talking about The Lord's appointed days. Also each of these had sacrifices that had to be offered. https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

We are going to see David's faithfulness in action, that David is led by God to do the right thing, and how much that is in contrast to Sheol, the current king of Israel, even though God has turned away from Sheol, take out your Bible and look with me to First Samuel and chapter 23 https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, we are going to be looking at a transition, and the reason why I say a transition is because of this in the second part of our chapter, and we're going to be tonight in Numbers chapter 27 in the second part of that, we're going to see a transition away from Moshe Rabbeinu, meaning Moses, our great one. Two, a different one, and that is Yahushua Ben nun, which is Joshua, the son of Nun. https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Today in the passage of scripture that we're going to study, we are going to witness truly a tragedy. Why? Because of the behavior and actions of King Saul. Now we have seen that Saul has no regard for the Word of God. He is obsessed and committed to one thing, and that is what He desires. And what is that he wants to remain king over Israel, and he's not willing to have anything change that desire, that that passionate thing that he wants to hold on to in pride and also, and this is the key in disobedience. https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Bitter soul. Now we're talking about those who were in distress, they would be unhappy, those who were indebted, meaning indebted to King David, and those who had a bitter soul. All of this, even though we're talking about three different groups of people, they all had something in common. And what was that they were not pleased with how their life was going. They wanted a change. And when we look at the situation, they probably were blaming one individual. And who was that? The king? It's the king's empire.https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

We have seen that King David is on the run. He knows that Shaul who is the king of Israel, but not the legitimate one, because we know that God has rejected Shaul and has anointed David to be the legitimate king, but Saul is rebelling against God, and he wants to put David to death. And what does David do? Well, the Bible says that he flees to a specific location. And where is that? https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, we are going to continue in the same chapter we started last week, and of course, I'm speaking out about the book of Numbers and chapter 26 now, for the most part, what's happening here. A census is being taken, and we're going to continue. We went through many of the tribes, but there are still a few tribes that are left, and we're going to see something else. We're going to see as God always does. He makes a distinction between the children of Israel, in a general sense, and the Levites.

In a general sense, we should be truthful people. That means that most of the time, we should always be honest and we should tell things exactly as they are. But there is one biblical exception, and what is that? Well, in order to understand this properly, we need to look at a Hebrew phrase, and that phrase is pekuah nefesh. https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, we are going to be looking at a scripture that the best way that we can describe it is a census, so people are going to be counted. Now we need to realize something, and that is in the Scripture, a census has a unique word that really speaks to it, and that word is to lift up. And we'll see this in a moment. So what does that mean? To lift up, and the implication is to lift up one's head. Well, there's two things. Number one, this census is an opportunity for people to be recognized by God. https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, we have seen that what has figured in significantly in this last part of chapter 20 of First Samuel is what's known as the new moon. Now that is a new month in Judaism, and the word for month is the word Chodesh, which is derived from the word for new. But here's something important. When we look at that word new in the Bible, it can also have the concept of change, and we're going to see that there's a change within this passage.To donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://get.theapp.co/yjjq https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

Well, we see biblically that there has been some judgment. We've talked about last week how Balaam did something that he taught Balak, the king of Moab, how to cause Israel to stumble, and what was that stumbling into idolatry? Israel consistently has that problem with struggling with idolatry, and that shouldn't surprise us, because we all do, what is idolatry? Idolatry is a desire to get your needs and your wants and your desires met through an alternative God. https://get.theapp.co/yjjqTo donate please visit us at:https://loveisrael.org/donate/Checks may be sent to:LoveIsrael.org📍 424 E Central Blvd, Suite 247, Orlando, FL 32801📞 +1 (407) 602-1915📧 Email: [email protected] free to download our MyBibleStudy App on telephone https://www.instagram.com/mybiblestudyofficial/ To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1256/29?v=20251111

We have learned that King Shaul desires to put David to death. We have also seen that there has been a disagreement between David and his good friend, Yonatan. Now this disagreement concerns one thing. We have seen that Yonatan thought that his father was not truly committed to putting David to death, but we're going to see today that it's clear that Shaul is obsessed with one thing, and that is holding on to his kingship, and that means putting David to death.
