Those of us who have chosen to follow the Narrow Path of Torah, in a certain sense, find ourselves in the “desert of nations,” and on our way to the Promised Land, trusting that the Messiah will soon establish His Kingdom.
Each follower of Yeshua has been called to leave the system of the world, although unfortunately, for many it has been very difficult to discern what is of this world and what is of the Kingdom of our Father Yah. The current generation of believers is specifically called to return to righteousness in the Torah.
Yah is meeting us and in a sense courting us face to face, offering us his Marriage Covenant – his Torah. Many of us are accepting such an offer; We have responded to his call and are now demonstrating whether or not we truly live according to his Instructions (Torah).
Some who accept this call will have difficulties with obedience, just as our Hebrew ancestors did in the desert even after entering the Covenant. Let us keep in mind that if we taste rebellion, we will not enter his Rest,
…I swore in my anger that they would not enter my rest. Psalm 95:11
because rebellion is proof of lack of love. However, if we joyfully live in the Covenant with Him, we will be allowed to enter His Rest!
By deciding to faithfully follow Yah, we can end up in conditions similar to those our parents had in the desert: without food, without water, without a compass, and currently, without internet, electricity, drinking water, cell phones, or networks. social, things whose absence would make the lives of many unlivable; but that is what the desert of nations is about.
We are surrounded by circumstances that the enemy continually contrives to pull us out of obedience to Torah and drag us into the corrupt values of this world. But in the same way that Yah, thanks to His Covenant, provided food, water, protection and guidance during the desert experience to our Israelite ancestors, He will also provide the same things through the Ruach Ha'Kodesh (Holy Spirit) to Israel. restored who is scattered in the desert of the nations. As we keep our eyes on Him and obey His leading, we will enter – as Joshua and Caleb did – into His Promised Land: His Kingdom!
The Covenant Bond
If we wish to be part of Yeshua's Kingdom, entering the covenant is not optional, but it does not imply bo***ge or slavery. The term: bond (Hebrew: masoreth), speaks of the type of ligation for the parties to a covenant, such as those who consecrate themselves to each other in marriage; It is a mutual and voluntary commitment, from which neither party expects to be separated.
This experience of living in the “wilderness-of-nations,” by living a life according to the Torah and in opposition to the world system, is specifically for the generation that lives just before the return of the Messiah, and in the present is being experienced by those of us who have declared our allegiance to Yeshua. We are the ones receiving Yah's call to come out of the system of the world around us, leaving behind the traditions of men taught by the system of conventional religion.
Those who hear and accept the call will have passed under the staff of Yah into His Kingdom; these will have been brought within the bonds of the Covenant! (Ezekiel 20:33-38). We are the generation that is experiencing the “restoration of all things” promised in Matthew 17:11 and announced by Peter in Acts 3:21-24. We are the generation that will see Yeshua return in power and glory, and it is our desire to be prepared to enter His Kingdom, without stain or anything similar, to be the bride that will return to its initial condition before the exile of the ten tribes that ended being divorced by Yah!
Therefore some of the wise will stumble; so that they may be refined, purified and made white until the time of the end, because it is still for the determined time. Daniel 11:35
Many will be clean and whitened and purified, but the wicked will continue to do wickedly, and none of the wicked will understand, but those who understand will understand. Daniel 12:10
