The Lord Is -- September

 

AGKURA
(pronounced ang'-koo-rah)
ANCHOR

Hebrews 6:19
 We have this Hope as an Anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain. (CSB)

Psalm 119:61
Evil people try to drag me into sin, but I am firmly anchored to Your instructions. (NLT)






EDUTH
(pronounced ay-dooth')
THE TESTIMONY

Exodus 30:6
Place the altar in front of the veil that is before the ark of the Testimony--before the mercy seat that is over the Testimony--where I will meet with you.

Exodus 24:12
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Come up to Me on the mountain and stay here, so that I may give you the tablets of stone, with the law and commandments I have written for their instruction.”

After Moses broke the first set of commandments he had to return to God to get a second set. It is then that the Ten Commandments are again referred to as The Testimony. Such a beautiful word, a beautiful name.

Exodus 31:18
When the LORD had finished speaking with Moses on Mount Sinai, He gave him the two tablets of the Testimony, tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God.

     It is only through the Testimony of God, the Word of God, that we may enter God's presence and commune with Him. In the Old Testament, under the Old Covenant, only the High Priest could enter God's presence and even then only once a year. 
     But now, we who live in the age of the church, can enter God's presence through The Word of His Testimony, His only begotten Son Jesus Christ. God's Living Testimony lives in the heart of every believer through faith in the name that saves a person  from the condemnation of their own sins. 
     Now is the time to believe on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for your salvation. Today is the day to repent of the wickedness of our hearts, the evil of our words, our actions (or lack thereof) and receive forgiveness from God. Here and Now. Here at the foot of the cross, where the Lamb of God was slain once and for all (all people everywhere). Now in the valley of the shadow of death (this life we live) while we still have breath to confess and a heart to believe. 


SAKAR RABAH MEOD
(pronounced saw-kawr' raw-bah' meh-ode')
EXCEEDING GREAT REWARD

Genesis 15:1
 After these things the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, saying, “Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your Shield, your Exceedingly Great Reward.” 

Psalm 16:5
The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: Thou maintainest my lot. 

1 Corinthians 2:9
But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love Him.

Matthew 25:34
Then shall the King say unto them on His right hand, Come, ye blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.

John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 



YAAQOB CHELEK
(pronounced yah-ak-obe' khay-lek' )
THE PORTION OF JACOB

Jeremiah 10:16
The Portion of Jacob is not like these, for He is the Maker of all things, and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance—the LORD of Hosts is His name.

Deuteronomy 32:9
But the LORD's portion is His people, Jacob His allotted inheritance.

Psalm 73:26
My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
