How Marvelous the Light I Missed!!!

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said , Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. (Bereshith / Genesis 1:1-3 )


Gotta say I love the discussions I remember growing up. When Messiah said' "I will put you in rembrance of everything I've taught you ( Yochanan / John 14:26 )." He meant it!. We learn gratefully that He is the Keeper of His WORD. After reading the whole Bible for the first time, it was and still is interesting how people are either taught or perceive the scriptures. Found in youth that the best way to gain any understanding of this was simply to ask questions. One of the theories I remember clearly was the debate over what we know today as the Old and New Testaments and in what context we as a people placed the two parts of( this mind you), One Book. In innocents I saw it as just that. Couldn't quite perceive why anyone would separate a book in one binder even if it contained numerous volumes at a time. When I did ask the why question of peers and elders was informed that " Well Jesus is only in the New Testament". So then what good did the Old Testament do but tell stories that would later set us up for the grand entrance of the Son of Elohiym? This started a course of studies that I pray can be explained. See a literal explanation sufficed for a long time, but then I went back reading and in just about the end of this fascinating book I read,,,,,,,,,

I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.( Revelations 22:13 KJV )

Something was very wrong! So I went back again, so much that I memorized this verse. A matter of fact unknowingly this whole book would end up quite a life-long fascination. But everytime I got to this verse there was that little itching in my mind that said, are you missing something. Here was the dilemma. If Messiah said He is the Beginning (Ha' Reshith) and the End ( Ha' Tachlith ), then where were you Jesus in the beginning of the book???? For those of you that have ever worked with children and hear the questions they can ask, may understand how I was struggling with this. Can I tell you many-many years later the answer came and was always right there in the open! How wrong our reasoning. Praise Adonai, he never lets us down when we are asking about Him with a whole heart (Luke 11:10).

In the beginning Elohiym created the heaven and the earth.

Okay heres the ABBA, the Father.

And the Spirit of Elohiym moved upon the face of the waters.

Theres the Ruach Ha'Qodesh/ Holy Spirit and The waters represents the Word.

And Elohiym said , Let there be light: and there was light.

Right there! Do you see Him??? Watch. First all things that the Father Elohiym dealt with in the beginning (the first) were spoken into Creation by the command of His Voice. Light wasn't created, it was called to come forth. Theres a difference. But it's two little letters in the english language that consummate this action, the voice of Elohiym calls the Light by the word "be".
Be =
Hayah = to arise, appear, come

Who was it that arose and appeared? Light. Before we go any further lets define the word light too,,,,

Ohr =

1. light of day
2. light of heavenly luminaries (moon, sun, stars)
3. day-break, dawn, morning light
4. daylight
5. lightning
6. light of lamp
7. light of life
8. light of prosperity
9. light of instruction
10. light of face (fig.)
11. Jehovah (YHVH) as Israel's light

Some of you are seeing it already aren't you??? The similarities are too much to ignore. Then we will also tell you that the three Hebrew letters that comprise this word are Vav , Heh and Resh. The typologies of Vav are = Hook, pillars, nails and to secure. Heh is the letter of the Ruach/Spirit , wind, word, promise and revelation , to reveal, window and lattice. Resh is Head, chief ,poor man, a person, highest. That's not all!!!

Moshe said to Elohiym, "Look, when I appear before the people of Isra'el and say to them, 'The God of your ancestors has sent me to you'; and they ask me, 'What is his name?' what am I to tell them?" Elohiym said to Moshe, "Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh [I am/will be what I am/will be]," and added, "Here is what to say to the people of Isra'el: 'Ehyeh [I Am or I Will Be] has sent me to you.'"

The english spelling for this name is " Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh " the root for the word Ehyeh is Hayah. What did Elohiym say?

Let there be light ( be = Hayah )

The scriptures tell us,,,,,,

"The angel of ADONAI appeared to him in a fire blazing from the middle of a bush."

And the HAYAH is said twice. We mustn't take one word spoken by Elohiym for granted and how He presents them. This angel (messenger ) of ADONAI speaks as if in a multiple person or the beginning and the ending. As ONE entity, Thee Creator. Before we take a venture in the light, see what the Apostle Yochanan /John says,,,,,,

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.The same was in the beginning with God.All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.He came unto his own, and his own received him not. ( Yochanan 1:1-10 )

So that we don't seem to get off easy, when the angel Gavri'el comes to Miriam /Mary does he not "announce" what has been spoken already by the Father, Son, Spirit and the Prophets? At that moment he was yet once again to be (Hayah Ohr) be light in this world, in the flesh of a man as the chosen passover Lamb. He shall come and His name will be (Hayah) Yahushua (Salvation of Elohiym) . Think it's by coincidence it's this description that is presented following the WORD by Yochanan / John??? Not likely. Elohiym spoke (WORD) the Light. Yochanan is repeating what was already spoken and prophesied to describe the Greatest Be-ing this world will ever know. Through His light all men would not only live, but be able to live right, according to the Holy design of His glory. The Light would come with Righteousness, Healing, Compassion and Justice, for the oppressed, imprisoned and afflicted. Seen of many, touched many and the darkness would flee from His Gloriously Profound and Awesome presence, as that from the Father. HalleluYah!! Of Him the Hayah would be glorified further by the YHVH. He would once again look and say " It is Good" echoing through the Spirit, The Ancient of Days " This is my Beloved Son in whom I am (Hayah) well pleased ". We lived in Him and by Him. He was such a part of everything that we stopped taking the time to recognize Him. Our hearts are pumping blood through our bodies do we have to see it to know it's there? How vastly had the darkness over shadowed us when we couldn't even bear witness to what was.

A little girls curiosity and interest was sated and the world was well again. Messiah is spoken of all the way through the Book, from the very beginning, just like He said, before we were created and He'll be there on the ultimate day of this life as we know it and the one to come. When He and the Father Light will shine so brightly we will know longer have need of the sun or the moon. Though we know Him as the Son of Elohiym now, He was always there. Actually maybe sometimes we'll take the time to venture some more. It's my prayer that you do. He's in many hidden places that would remind us of the glory of Elohiym of hidden Treasure. He is the Alef and the Tav. The Alpha and Omega. The Beginning and the End. From Bereshith/ Genesis to Revelation. In All and of All. Thee Let There Be Light! Thank you ABBA. So much to say and so little time, May we all be able to now see,,,,,,,,,, How Marvelous the Light I missed!

Heres a couple more references that apply, the Prophets and Sages were definitely trying to tell us something,,,,,,,,,

"While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may become sons of Light." These things Yeshua spoke, and He went away and hid Himself from them. Yochanan / John 12:36

The sun shall be no more your light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light to you: but Yahweh will be to you an everlasting light, and your YHVH your glory. ( Yesha'yahu / Isaiah 60:19

For God who said, "Out of darkness let light shine," is He who has shone in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of Elohiym's glory, which is radiant on the face of Ha' Mashiach / Christ. ( 2 Corinthians 4:4-6 )

If, however, your whole body is penetrated with light, and has no part dark, it will be (Hayah) so lighted, all of it, as when the lamp (Ohr) with its bright shining gives you light." ( Luke 11:36 )

For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Adonai. Walk as children of light, ( Ephesians 5:8 )

Once more Yeshua addressed them. "I am ( Hayah) the Light of the world," He said; "the man who follows me shall certainly not walk in the dark, but shall have the light of Life." ( John 8:12 )
