At His instruction... one more time...

 

He loves this Psalm... Psalm 42

 

For years, years, years, it was all about Israel...

 

And now He is calling us to pray for this nation...

 

However, His deepest call is to His Beloved Bride... a preparatory call... to help the wife prepare herself.

 

This Psalm draws on the heart of His Beloved...

 

And it is reflective of the very heart cry of His remnant... as He is bringing us through this time of pressure... and as we are finding ourselves in the midst of being more and more set-apart unto Him.

 

In this process, we will find ourselves more and more in midbar... wilderness... the place of hearing...

 

Hearing only Him...

 

Longing only for Him...

 

As a deer pants for water

 

 

“As a deer longs for the water streams, so my being longs for You, O Elohim.”

 

Tehillim/Psalm 42:1

 

At the Altar of Incense

Prayer

 

Every FIFTH DAY (Thu.)

 

1:00 P.M.

 

We will be praying every Thu., which is the 5th day of His week.

 

Look at this pattern of the Tabernacle again, remembering that this is a living pattern of His abode:

 

 

When you enter in through the narrow Gate, you come to the altar of fire: day 1 – ‘let there be Light’,

 

then to the laver of water: day 2 – separate water from water, ‘above’ and ‘below’ is established,

 

then into the Set-apart Place through the Door and to the right is the table of Showbread: day 3 – land emerges, plants,

 

then the Menorah with the seven lights: day 4 – sun, moon, stars,

 

then the Altar of Incense, prayer: day 5 – above and below are filled with birds and fish… the first living creatures who fly and swim,

 

then behind the veil into the Most Set-apart Place, Ark of the Covenant, Living Creatures around His Throne, Winged Cheruvim, High Priest: day 6 – animals and man.

 

Day 7 – He comes down!

 

We will be gathering at the Altar of Incense on the 5th day, on Thu.,

 

The Fifth Day… the day of the Altar of Incense…

 

…tomorrow at 1:00 p.m…

 

Hope you can join us by His Spirit from wherever you are!

 

 

5th day (Th.) at 1:00 P.M.

 

Those of us who have committed to pray for this nation and Rick Perry, will also use this time to do so for this season…

 

… even as we continue to pray His word, His Psalms in this hour for the nation of Israel, America, the nations, and all of His Body as well.

 

So consider JOINING US by HIS SPIRIT at

 

The Altar of Incense

 

Every FIFTH DAY (Thu.)

 

1:00 P.M.

 

We will always begin with approximately a half hour of waiting on Him in silence:

 

 

“… there came to be silence in the heaven for about half an hour…”

 

WAIT ON ELOHIM

 

We are going to quietly sit and wait on Him for approximately 30 minutes. 

 

We will not be playing music/worship.  After our time of waiting on Him, we will worship Him by His Spirit, out of our spirits… out of our mouths… sing to Him and love Him with our worship, praise, reverence.  He has shown me this Scripture regarding this… for He wants to hear our voice.

 

Song of songs 2:14  “O my dove, in the clefts of the rock, In the covering of the cliff, let me see your appearance,

 

Let Me hear your voice; For your voice is sweet, and your appearance is lovely.”

 

He wants the river of worship to flow from the river of His Spirit in us. 

 

To come together in unity with Him and in Him...

 

For we are in Him and our voice is as the sound of many waters…

 

One Voice, His Voice. 

 

Rev 1:15  and His feet like burnished brass, as if refined in a furnace, and His voice as the sound of many waters.

 

Rev 19:5  And a voice came from the throne, saying, ‘Praise our Elohim, all you His servants and those who fear Him, both small and great!’

 

Rev 19:6  And I heard as the voice of a great crowd, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunders, saying, “Halleluyah, for YHWH Ěl Shaddai reigns!

 

Rev 19:7  “Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him praise, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife prepared herself.”

 

Then we will begin to pray and JUMP INTO HIS RIVER by HIS SPIRIT!

 

PSALM 42

 

Psa 42:1  As a deer longs (‘arag’ – long for, cry, pant) for the water streams, so (‘ken’ – just like this… just like this… He used the deer to be the example of this thirst and panting and dependence) my being (‘nephesh’ – my very being, breath, life!) longs (‘arag’ – long for, cry, pant)  for You, O Elohim.  (In You and only in You is the Living water)

 

Psa 42:2  My being thirsts (‘tsame’ – to be thirsty… Your Son cried out ‘Tsame’ for He thirsted for You when He suffered for us… so that we could nowdrink of You and drink deeply!) for Elohim, for the living Ěl (‘El Chai’… the Life filled El, like green vibrant pastures, like a flowing fresh reviving spring).  When shall I enter in to appear before Elohim (‘ra’ah panyim Elohim’ – when will I see the Face of Elohim)?

 

Psa 42:3  My tears have been my food (‘lehem’ – bread, sustenance… we cry out to You Living Lehem of Heaven) day and night, while they say to me all day, ‘Where is your Elohim?’ (the persecution may increase, but we hold fast to You!)

 

Psa 42:4  These I remember, and pour out (‘shaphak’ – spill forth as a libation) my being (‘nephesh’ – my very being, breath, life!) within me.  For I used topass along (‘avar’ – cross over… even as that deer used to dart… now she was weary, trying to abar, cross over) with the throng; I went with them to the House of Elohim, with the voice of joy (‘kol rinnah’ – ringing proclamation of joy) and praise (‘todah’ – thankfulness), a multitude keeping a festival! (we keep your set-apart times and appointments… we are going up in preparation of going UP… may we have a word in due season for the thirsty soul: ‘He is coming!’)

 

Psa 42:5  Why are you depressed (‘shachach’ – sunk, depressed, bent over, bowed over… even as the doe was shachach), O my being (‘nephesh’ – my very being, breath, life!)?  And why are you restless (‘hamah’ – literally a loud moaning hum, mournful) within me? = (the condition) 

 

      Wait for Elohim: for I shall yet thank Him, for the deliverance of His face  = (the cure) (‘Yeshua… Panyim’… Yeshua Your face!  We wait for Your deliverance!  This literally says, ‘Yeshua Panyim’… the face of Yeshua… we are waiting for His Face… Joh 14:9  Yehoshua said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father, and how do you say, ‘Show us the Father’?” … the Panyim Elohim, the Face of Elohim)!

 

Psa 42:6  O my Elohim, my being (‘nephesh’ – my very being, breath, life!) is depressed (‘shachach’ – sunk, depressed, bent over, bowed over) within me= (the condition); Therefore I remember You (‘zachar’ – remember, recount, be mindful of, think on, mention, speak of… let us remember You… speak of you… recount Your love… how You delivered us time and again… speak of and mention and declare all that You have done for us in Your Son)=(the cure) from the land of the Yardĕn, and from the heights of Ḥermon, from Mount Mitsʽar.

 

 

Psa 42:7  Deep (‘t’hom’ – deep, surging mass of living water… this Deep is You!  Deep with a capital ‘D’!  The inner most part of Your great being) calls to deep (‘t’hom’ – the deep in us… little ‘d’… to our inner being… You call to us from the very Depth of You and connect to the deep in us… fused hearts!) at the sound (‘kol’ – sound, voice… You speak to us from the Depth of Your being to our being… Your Voice is as the sound of many waters) of Your waterfalls (‘tsinnur’ – waterspout… conduit… You pour out an abundance of Your living water on those who are in position before You, direct downpour); all Your waves (‘mishbar’ – breakers, billows, waves) and breakers (‘gal’ – rolling water, springs of water… You wash over us and break off those things that are not of You, and grow and nurture those things that are… you bring water to the thirsty longing weary soul) passed over (‘avar’ – cross over… and it can also mean ‘cover’… now as the cure has come… as the Face of Elohim has come to him… as he has recounted and remembered Him and His love… He comes to cover him… let us remember this ‘cure’ when ‘the condition’ arises) me.

 

Small teaching at this point:  What a powerful, delivering vision He gave me on this verse and the verse in Psalm 42  ‘Deep unto deep’.

 

In the vision I was being pulled down, down into the depths, there at the place of troubles and despair and problems… then I noticed I was under the water of the deep… desperately needing breath. 

 

Then ‘Deep called to deep’, even as He Who is the ‘Deep’ ABOVE began to draw me up out of the ‘deep’ of the waters of despair (and ‘no air’), and then to the ‘sound of His waterspout’. 

 

Suddenly I surfaced and took a deep breath!  He called even as my life was ebbing away from the troubles, the despair, the problems of this carnal life… suddenly the DEEP of HIS LOVE from Above called to me and I ‘surfaced’ with my legs rapidly kicking, to get to the top for breath!  

 

He is saying to us to ‘come away to HIM’ and put our minds and hearts on what ‘He wants’… for ‘before’ we were in our mother’s wombs, He knew us… we are HIS.

 

Once I surfaced, then I could hear and see the ‘waterfall’ of what He was doing… that word for ‘waterfall’ from Psalm 42, is actually, ‘waterspout’ and it looks more like this:

 

 

As the vision continued, after I surfaced with my mouth drawing in the breath of Him, suddenly I could hear and see the waterspout of what He was doing! 

 

I quickly swam to that place and began to be refreshed and revived and renewed in the cool, life giving waters of His Spirit and seeing and hearing what HE was doing… escaping the snares of the ‘deep despair’ of the problems that so many of us can be drawn into… especially familial. 

 

DEEP calls to deep, has taken on a profound, new meaning for me, for in the midst of the vision He delivered me from despair!  And gave me air… Hisbreath of life! 

 

Let us go up away from the ‘deep’ that wants to drown us and take our breath… as the DEEP of Him from Above calls to us…

 

…let us go up on the Ladder of Him… let us take in deeply that BREATH of HIM and then our ears and eyes will be opened to what He is doing, as IN HIM we too will begin to ‘only do what we SEE our ABBA doing’!

 

Here is a very simple ‘three progressive scenes’ drawing of the interactive vision that He brought. 

 

RISE UP and BREATHE of HIM and begin to HEAR and SEE and DO ‘only what we see our Abba doing’ in our Savior, Messiah, High Priest and King.

 

Psa 42:8  By day YHWH commands His kindness (‘chesed’ – Your Fatherly goodness, kindness, faithfulness… You command kindness and grace to be upon us as we zachar You), and by night His song (‘shir’ feminine– Your ‘Motherly’ song) is with me; A prayer (‘tephillah’ – intercession, supplication, prayer… Your song of love rises up in us by Your waterspout and downpour of living water, back unto You… even as the circuit of rain… down from above, back up to You) to the Ěl of my life (‘El Chai’ – the Life filled, life giving El!).

 

Psa 42:9  I say to Ěl my Rock, ‘Why have You forgotten me?  (You never leave us or forsake us, but You may move away to test our hearts.  We thank You for sending Panyim Yeshua Who cried out in thirst, ‘My El!  My El!  Why have You forsaken Me?’… He was forsaken that we might be receivedand never forsaken.) Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?’  (Look up!  The Deep is calling)

 

Psa 42:10  My enemies have reproached me, like a crushing of my bones, while they say to me all day long, ‘Where is your Elohim?’ (many mock Your people and wait to see Your people’s defeat… but You are coming!  We cleave to You for all we’re worth!  You put Your strong hands upon us and say  ‘Be strong now, be strong’!)

 

Psa 42:11  Why are you depressed (‘shachach’ – sunk, depressed, bent over, bowed over), O my being (‘nephesh’ – my very being, breath, life, soul)? = (the condition) And why are you restless (‘hamah’ – clamorous, mournful) within me?  Wait (‘yachal’ – wait, trust, be patient with hopeful expectation!) for Elohim: for I shall yet thank (‘todah!’) Him, the deliverance of my face and my Elohim.= (the cure) (Your word literally says, ‘Yeshua paniym Elohim… Yeshua the face of Elohim… Your face delivers our face… and the depression goes, and joy arises as you bring your living water to the thirsty soul.)”

At the Altar of Incense

 

“And one of the elders said to me, ‘Do not weep.

 

See, the Lion of the tribe of Yehuḏah, the Root of Daviḏ, overcame to open the scroll and to loosen its seven seals.’

And I looked and saw in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders a Lamb standing, as having been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of Elohim sent out into all the earth.

 

And He came and took the scroll out of the right hand of Him sitting on the throne.

 

And when He took the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp,

 

 and golden bowls filled with incense, which are the prayers of the set-apart ones.

 

And they sang a renewed song, saying,

 

‘You are worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals, because You were slain, and have redeemed us to Elohim by Your blood out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,

 

and made us sovereigns and priests to our Elohim, and we shall reign upon the earth.’…

 

…And when He opened the seventh seal, there came to be silence in the heaven for about half an hour.

 

And I saw the seven messengers who stand before Elohim, and to them were given seven trumpets.

 

And another messenger came and stood at the altar, holding a golden censer, and much incense was given to him, that he should offer it with the prayers of all the set-apart ones upon the golden altar which was before the throne.

 

And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the set-apart ones, went up before Elohim from the hand of the messenger.

 

And the messenger took the censer, and filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it to the earth.

 

And there were noises, and thunders, and lightnings, and an earthquake.”
