The Sabbath and Signs and Wonders

Psalm 96, the second psalm

of Kabbalat Shabbat קבלת שבת

gives the command to declare Yeshua ישוע

and to show signs and wonders.

Psalm 96:2-3.

“Sing to HASHEM,

bless his name,

declare his Yeshua from day to day.

Declare his glory among the nations,

his wonders among all people.”

שירו ליהוה

ברכו שמו

בשרו מיום ליום ישוע תו:

ספרו בגוים כבודו

בכל העמים נפלאותיו :

Signs and wonders accompany

the name of the Messiah המשיח.

It is something that HASHEM does.

We put no effort into it.

We are in a state of rest מנוחה .

HASHEM does the work.

This is the essence of Shabbat שבת .

We cease from our own works,

and magnify the works of HASHEM.

Moses, after he was called by HASHEM,

put no effort into the signs and wonders

that HASHEM performed in Egypt,

and in the wilderness במדבר.

Most of the time

he didn’t even lift the rod.

Aaron did.

Moses learned to rest

in listening to the voice of HASHEM,

and obeying the voice of HASHEM.

He learned the Shabbat of HASHEM.

He put none of his own effort,

or his own sechel סכל

into the performance

of the miracles in Egypt.

He simply spoke

the Word of HASHEM דבר יהוה.

HASHEM performed the miracles,

the signs, and the wonders,

and Moses was in a state

of rest and peace

or Shabbat Shalom שבת שלום.

In a like manner,

Yeshua ישוע gave authority סמכות

to his students talmidim תלמדים

to cast out devils מגרש שדים

and to heal the sick רפא חולים

from all manner of

sickness and diseases.

They learned that they did not

have to put any effort

into these works.

They simply spoke the Word

as Moses had done.

HASHEM DID THE WORKS.

They conserved and renewed

their own strength

by resting in the Shabbat of HASHEM.

Many signs and wonders

accompany the name of Yeshua ישוע

because he is the

Messiah of Israel משיח של ישראל .

Pillars of fire, pillars of smoke,

oil, sweet smelling fragrances,

visions, prophecies, healings,

deliverances from demons,

and many other different

and numerous kinds

of miracles, signs, wonders

appear when his name is spoken.

HASHEM does these works

because the Messiah Yeshua המשיח ישוע

is sitting at his right hand.

Yeshua ישוע said

“Whatsoever you ask the Father

in my name,

He will do it.”

Psalm 98, the fourth psalm

of Kabbalat Shabbat קבלת שבת

says the right arm of HASHEM

performs these wonders.

Then the psalm says that

HASHEM reveals his Yeshua ישוע ,

his Messiah משיחו,

to the eyes of the nations.

And through this HASHEM

reveals his mercy and faith

to the house of Israel.

This is because the Messiah Yeshua

המשיח ישוע is of the House of David,

and the throne of David

will be established forever.

Psalm 98:1-2.

“O sing to HASHEM a new song;

for he has done wonders ,

his right hand, his holy arm,

has brought him salvation.

HASHEM has made known his Yeshua:

his righteousness has he openly showed

in the sight of the nations.

He has remembered

his mercy and his faith

to the house of Israel.

All the ends of the earth

have seen the Yeshua of HASHEM.”

שירו ליהוה שיר חדש

כי נפלאות עשה

הושיעה לו ימינו וזרוע קדשו :

הודיע יהוה ישועתו

לעיני הגוים גלה צדקתו:

זכר חסדו ואמונתו לבית ישראל

ראו כל אפסי ארץ

את ישועת אלהינו:

Psalm 29, the sixth psalm of Kabbalat Shabbat קבלת שבת

speaks of the Voice קול of HASHEM

SEVEN times.

This refers back to Psalm 95,

the first psalm of Kabbalat Shabbat קבלת שבת

where is the Voice קול of HASHEM

is mentioned one time.

Listening to the Voice קול of HASHEM,

and obeying his voice שומע בקול,

are the keys to entering into

the Shabbat שבת of HASHEM.

Signs and Wonders will occur,

because HASHEM does them.

He demonstrates that he is king

over all the earth.

He gives strength and peace עז ושלום

to his people: his Shabbat,

and we rule and rest with him.

The Messiah Yeshua המשיח ישוע said

in many different ways

to his students talmidim תלמידים

that if they hear his word

and obey it,

the works that he does

shall they do also;

and greater works than these,

because he goes to his Father.

The Messiah המשיח said:

“Truly, truly, I say to you,

he who believes on me,

the works that I do

shall he do also;

and greater works than these,

because I go to my Father.”

אמן אמן אני אומר לכם

המאמין בי יעשה גם הוא

את המעשים שאני עושה:

וגדולים מאלה יעשה

כי הולך אני אל האב:

All the ends of the earth

כל אפסי הארץ

will see the glory of HASHEM,

and the glory of the Messiah Yeshua המשיח ישוע.
