2 NOW IN STOCK new! Messianic Calendar Lion and Lamb Ministries is pleased to introduce the NEW Messianic Calendar. Using lunar phase software, we have synchronized the first of each Hebrew month to when the new moon would be seen from Jerusalem. This is for all of the brethren to accurately keep the appointed times of the LORD. This calendar presents all of God's Appointed Times on the dates instructed by God in the Torah, which are not always on the days that traditional Judaism celebrates. We have referenced Scripture for every holiday and festival and marked the Rosh Chodeshes throughout the year. All dates, months, and years are shown in both Civil and Jewish Calendar systems. Hillel calendar dates are also indicated to show if there is a difference to the New Moon date. All major Biblical holidays, festivals, and High Sabbaths are marked and listed with Scripture references. Also shows Israeli national holidays, U.S. federal holidays, and time changes for the U.S. and Israel. Weekly Torah Portions, Haftarahs, and Brit Chadashah readings are referenced for every Shabbat. 16-Month Calendar (32 Pages) 1 Calendar $14.00 each 2-9 Calendars $12.00 each 10+ Calendars $10.00 each B messianicmarketplace.com Prices do not include shipping

3 from our FOUNDER: Dear Brethren, As a kid, I always loved it when Independence Day and the July 4th weekend came. First, it was just before my birthday, so my annual birthday party began a few days early. Secondly, I was able to shoot off firecrackers on the 4th. Only once did a firecracker go off in my fingers, but I still have them all. Going to the park in the evening to see the big fireworks was always a big thrill with the big booms like naval gunfire. There was the watermelon in the daytime and strawberry shortcake in the evening for dessert. And there was my birthday to cap it all off. But there was something else I remember. I remember the parades, the waving of the flag, and the patriotic things. I grew up loving my country, thankful that I was born in freedom and had the liberty to live and grow. I was aware that other places were not like America and that I was fortunate and blessed by God. I grew up pledging allegiance to the flag and to the republic for which it stood. I was glad to serve in the United States Navy and have always experienced deep emotions when I would render honor to the flag no matter where. Things are not like they used to be. Kids today are not growing up in the country I grew up in. It seems that people have forgotten where they came from and what we all used to believe in. There is no more pledging nor saying Thank You to God. And the flag is pretty much ignored except by those receiving a tri-folded one at a veteran s funeral. let us not forget Jerusalem.

5 July 2017 THE ONE Then God said, Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth. So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Genesis 1:26-27 Much has been written about the creation of man throughout the years. One of the things that I always like to think about is that when the Almighty created man, He was in direct communication with him. This is one of the most beautiful things. The communication before Adam sinned was unbroken. Man was created in the image of God and with that was given dominion over all of the things that were made. This responsibility was more than that of the president of the United States, kings, queens or world leaders. This was the original hyper connection the communication pipeline larger and much more powerful than a T1 line or sophisticated computer technology. PRAYER TO STAY Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace that we may obtain mercy, and find grace in time of need. Hebrews 4:16 Do you often feel stuck in situations, or better yet do you sometimes feel like you are sliding down a slippery slope on which you cannot find sufficient footing? That is why we must pray. My friends, one of the most underutilized tools we have in this believing life is prayer. We actually are able to connect directly with the Creator through this magnificent tool! We don t need the Internet, Skype, or iphones. We just need to have willing hearts and minds and know that our Messiah has certified the line of communication for us! For He states: If ye love me, keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; [Even] the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. John 14:15-17 KJV So let s get busy! Let us openly and honestly communicate with our Father. My slogan is, We have to pray if we want to stay. If we sincerely know that YHWH hears our prayers, then why don t we pray more often? Why do we worry so much? Why are we not more engaged? Let us pray! Let us pray! Spend some time today praying and opening your heart to YHWH. Take some time out when you are at work on lunch or during the ride home to talk honestly and openly to our Heavenly Father. Take the time to open your heart to Him. He hears His children. We should take every opportunity that we can to speak to Him. And I will live among the Israelites and will not abandon my people Israel. 1 Kings 6:13 No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you. Joshua 1:5 THE PRAYER OF FAITH (EMUNAH) Prayer is something that we often talk about, but it remains an underutilized tool in the body of Messiah. Think about our daily lives. When something happens, where is the first place our minds turn? A person, place, or thing? Do we look at the circumstance first before turning to our Father? Are we quick to become overwhelmed with our situation, or do we stop, look and listen to the voice of Him Who created us? And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he has committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. James 5:15 KJV The key thing to remember is that we must have faith. Faith causes us to turn to YHWH in both times of distress as well as times of extreme blessings. The person who prays to YHWH must consider first that 5

6 July 2017 THE ESSENCE OF PRAYER Prayer is a gift that was given in the beginning to all mankind from our Creator. After Adam s (mankind s) fall, YHWH could have chosen to cut off communication with mankind. Instead, He has always desired to communicate with His most cherished creation. Prayer is two-way communication between us and YHWH, our Elohim. POSITIONS OF PRAYER In the ancient days you would find the Israelites praying in at least two distinct ways: (1) prostrate or kneeling and (2) standing with the hands open and heart exposed. Both of these methods noted that the person praying is showing humility and great honor to our great King. In Lamentations 3:41, we see the idea of lifting the hands in prayer as a symbol of showing one s heart and that nothing was withheld from God. Make sure you are doing likewise, not holding anything from Him. I will therefore that men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting. 1 Timothy 2:8 This verse is an example of one of the methods of prayer that we discussed, the standing prayer. In this method of prayer, the person praying exposed the heart cavity saying Heneni: Here I am, YHWH. One of the ways we define prayer is through the Hebrew word pallel. This word means to judge oneself. The Hebrew root base of this word is also where we get the Hebrew word, hallel, which means praise. This is a great tip to remember that our prayers should contain self-judgment (introspection) as well as praise unto our King. INTROSPECTION AND PERSONAL PRAYER One of the most powerful weapons that we have today is the ability to pray to YHWH. It is a great miracle that we have access to Him and that we have the ability to speak to Him in our own language. No matter what time of day or the situation, we can speak to Him. He is always willing and ready to hear our prayers. One of the key ways to strengthen our faith and prayer life is through introspection (personal prayer). Personal prayer is just that personal. Imagine if you could have a one-hour meeting with the Prime Minister of Israel or any of the top dignitaries that you can think of. Imagine if you could counsel with the top money manager or Biblical teacher in the world for one hour. Now consider that we have access to someone Who is so much more powerful than all of the most powerful people that we can think of combined. We have access to Him! Yes, the One Who ordained everything is willing to meet with us anytime. Here is where we access the gift of personal prayer. In personal prayer we come before the 6

7 July 2017 King with praise (hallel) and adoration, but we spend time in introspection (pallel), judging ourselves and asking our King for help in the areas that we need it. Psalms 51:1-19 gives us the perfect example of introspection. Here, King David is dealing with the weight of his sin. He soberly confronts his sin before the King. He is using the method of judgment that we have learned (pallel). He knows that the King is ever merciful and David is not hiding his sin. When we come to YHWH, likewise, we need to be completely honest with Him about our own sins and shortcomings. If we are unable to judge our own sins and shortcomings with the proper weight and measure, how can we expect to judge angels and judge the world? As Paul states: Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? And if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? 1 Corinthians 6:2 The ancient sages believed that self-scrutiny and self-judgment lead to hope and mercy from God. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. Matthew 6:6 My suggestion is to find a quiet place where you can speak to YHWH all alone for at least one hour. Speak to him, cry out and pour out your heart to Him. Confess to Him and ask for forgiveness. Take the time to listen to Him. Remember, prayer is a two-way communication. Try this. One hour of introspective prayer daily will change your life. MODEL PRAYERS After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, in earth, as [it is] in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. Matthew 6:9-13 There are many prayers in the Bible that are considered model prayers; one of the more common is the Disciples or Lord s Prayer in Matthew. This prayer is a great model. Let s consider the structure of the prayer: Our Father which art in Heaven - Adoration Hallowed be Thy name - Praise Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth as it is in Heaven - Kingdom-based, Messianic authority Give us this day our daily bread - Petition And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors - Forgiveness and Repentance Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil - Guidance and Deliverance For thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. - Praise From this we get an excellent model for our prayers. Take each piece and stretch it out. One suggestion is to use a journal to write down your thoughts for each. When alone, you can recite these until you are comfortable talking to YHWH in this way. SET THE MOOD Take the opportunity to make your prayer time special. This is your time alone with Him who has created all things; the great I AM is willing to meet with you. You have the blessed opportunity to set the environment for the meeting. Get up early, go for a walk, go to an empty part of the house, turn on some praise and worship music. Do it up! It s a special time for you to meet the King! 7

8 July 2017 THREE TIMES A DAY Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and He shall hear my voice. Psalms 55:17 There are three times a day ascribed to the Hebrew liturgical prayers. We know that the Jewish believers in the first century followed this prayer cycle. The prayer watch cycle also followed the schedule for the sacrifices during the times of the first and second temple period. One fact to take into account is that whenever a sacrifice was made, prayers were always offered as well. Take the challenge. Pray with your wife and family if at all possible, during these special times. If you cannot do it as a family, and you are otherwise occupied, pray alone. This connects us to the set-apart times that God created for the ancients. These are the times when Adam would meet with God before he sinned. Remember, His Divine design was to connect heaven to earth. You can see in the model prayer that Messiah gave His students in Matthew 6:9-13 this same pattern of connection. As born-again believers, who are full of God s Spirit, we should likewise strive to meet according to these prescribed times. When we connect in this fashion, we are able to be the sacrifice that the Apostle Paul talks about: I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, [which is] your reasonable service. Romans 12:1 These prayer times become more intense and meaningful when you do them with your spouse and children. When the two become one and are truly unified, the Heavenly Father allows blessings to come upon the home and blessings abound in the relationship. Suggestion: Use the prayer outline in Matthew chapter 6 and design your own personal prayer that the Father has placed on your heart. You can also pray the Psalms or use a prayer book (Siddur) if you choose. The goal is to meet with the King during these appointed times. 8

9 July 2017 MEDITATION Meditation in the Hebraic understanding is reciting scriptures, prayers, or songs of praise and thanksgiving to the King. Praying aloud is a way of affirming the Word of God in your life. As you speak with a pure heart and conviction, you are actually speaking into your current reality and changing your future. Try adding this understanding of meditating to your prayers. It is wonderful and will certainly draw you closer to the King, as well as to your spouse and family at large. WHAT SHOULD I SAY? An easy way to start establishing a strong and consistent prayer life is to start with a list of gratitude. You can use your phone or a stationary notebook and write down things that you are grateful for. This is a wonderful exercise that you can involve your spouse, family or friends. Get around a table and share your gratitude lists. When others share and you hear some of the things that they are grateful for, write those things down! Add them to your list. Then when you sit down to pray, pull out your list of gratitude and start to give Him thanks. This is a way to start to strengthen your prayer time with the Creator. Of course, you can use scripture. Use the Book of Psalms, Proverbs or any other scriptures that you are inspired by. You can frame up your prayers and use the inspired words to reinforce them. KAVANAH And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words. Matthew 6:7 Remember when you are praying, this is not a recording. Don't read and not truly connect with what you are reading or speaking. There is a saying, what comes from the heart, reaches the heart. Really focus on what you are saying to the Creator. When you pray, do so with intention. The Hebrew word for this is Kavanah. Oftentimes before I start praying or doing anything for The Lord, I will start with a song, melody or hymn. This helps to quiet the mind and focus me in on Him. PRAY WITHOUT CEASING 1 Thessalonians 5:1 simply says to pray without ceasing. What comes to mind when you think about this in a modern world? Do you think of a man in a tallit with his head covered, praying all day, never coming out for food or drink? This is not what this means at all. What this verse is referring to is the ancient understanding of short sentence prayers. An example of a short sentence prayer is The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want. In this prayer, there is an affirmation of YHWH and His ability to provide for His people. Another example of this is Baruch HaShem or Bless the Name. These are short sentence prayers. They are prayers the Holy Spirit lays on your heart, or verses that God has led you to study. These prayers keep you from having any other thoughts on your mind; they can also keep you focused on your job as an emissary to bring Heaven down to earth (Matthew 6:9-13). This also helps us to fulfill the words of King David when he says, I will bless YHWH at all times, His praise shall continually be in my mouth Psalms 34:1 Praying with Your Spouse You should be focused on praying with your spouse. Think about it. Today, the Biblical marriage is the most attacked institution out there. With the ridiculous amount of divorces and separations occurring, we might want to rethink our strategy of prayer. If you are just praying for yourself and for your spouse in personal prayer, that is wonderful, but we will truly experience the benefit of Divine assistance and marital strengthening when praying together as a couple. 9

10 July 2017 A FEW OF THE REASONS COUPLES DON T PRAY TOGETHER: We are on two different schedules - Although this is a great reason, we should remember that prayer is like air to our lungs and marrow to our bones. Prayer to YHWH with our spouses is an affirmation of covenant and will give the relationship that added strength. We don t get along that well - Many couples are faking it, acting like things are fine between each other. You might be one of them. Ask yourself the question, Why don t I desire to pray with my husband? He was good enough to marry, but he is not good enough to pray with? So, get busy and humble yourself before YHWH and your sweetheart and get into prayer. I don t know how to pray - This is a classic one. We all know what Messiah did for His students in Matthew 6:9-14. He gave them the Divine outline for communication. Use this and follow the Psalms. DESTROY THE EVIL AND NEGATIVE IMPULSES Prayer with the spouse is one of the main ways that you can destroy those strongholds that exist within the marital relationship. When something is happening in the spiritual, rest assured those who are in covenant with YHWH and have dedicated their marriage to His covenant, can definitely knock out major strongholds. we know that YHWH is gathering His people from the four corners of the earth. We know that a mere mortal is not doing this. We know that this is not being done in the natural, but through the supernatural power of our Elohim. This is not the time to have a casual attitude towards prayer. It will be through prayer that we will strengthen our belief and faith in the King. Through prayer we are able to have the connection, hope, guidance, and deliverance that comes as a result of being a child of the King. I hope that you have gleaned some concepts and additional ideas that will help you grow and mature in prayer. As we are working to have better, more fruitful lives, let us not lose sight of the fact that we serve the supreme, omniscient, benevolent, spiritual, supernatural and all powerful Creator of the universe; and our trials, victories, growth and development are all a lot more clearly understood when we utilize prayer, the secret weapon. Pray To Stay, Some Guidelines On Prayer, Excerpts taken from Romance By The Book by Ed Harris For the weapons of our warfare [are] not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds; casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Messiah. 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 PRAYING FOR BELIEVERS IN THE WORLD As we look at the state of the world today, we see the evil of the world that seems to continue to saturate every area of our culture. Despite this, 10

11 July 2017 Since 2014, Lion & Lamb Ministries has worked hand in hand with Ed Harris to help spread the message to the saints about Yeshua s return and the blessings of keeping the Torah.

This ministry is a way for others who aren t in their local area to get insights into the same practices Ed and Chavah use in their local assembly. Life coaching, Torah principles, and many other practical teachings, with a personal approach to each situation to help teach a better understanding of the interpersonal dynamics that take place in the workplace, relationships, marriages, and inside their congregation.

14 June 2017 Our Feast of Shavuot event was a tremendous time of fellowship and celebration. In our second year, we grew more than we had anticipated in attendance, both in person and in our internet viewership. If you weren t able to attend this year, start making plans now. Registration is already open for next year and we are so excited for what the Lord will bring. Rico Cortes will be joining Monte and a host of other teachers for the event, so mark your calendars. Even though the spring feasts are now concluded for the year, we are just getting started with our annual events. Camp Yeshua is keeping us busy through the end of this month with over 300 teens and young adults coming from all over the world. Keep an eye on our Roku channel as the teachings from Camp Yeshua will be uploaded there soon for all to see and learn from. If you are a member of David s Army, you should have received your exclusive FREE teaching set by now and we pray it blesses you as much as you continue to bless us with your support. The summer months are extremely slow donation months as most people are taking family vacations, traveling, and spending time outdoors. That means we at the ministry have to be smart in how we approach any equipment purchases or other expenses. You may have noticed we have included new worship sets and other offerings on our weekly Erev Shabbat broadcast. This is just the beginning of new things to come! We have new worship music from Mason Clover, Melody Joy, Rod Woodruff, and the Exodus Road Band all coming very soon! We pray that these blessed worship leaders will bless you as you enter into Shabbat with us. With all these new worship sets comes new stage and set designs in our studios. We are taping new teachings by Rico Cortes, Chris Knight, Monte and Ephraim Judah. Soon you will see some of the new designs you have helped us create through your donations. Did you know that we help record and/or produce the majority of the independent Messianic and Hebrew Roots teachers at our Lion and Lamb studio? It is another way we can be good stewards of the equipment and resources you have shared with us for the work of the Lord. With all the changes going on around Lion & Lamb, you will start to see new features just like this one in the monthly YAVOH, as well as guest articles on a more regular basis. Don t worry Monte isn t going anywhere. This time is allowing him to focus on some new projects that Lord has laid on his heart. Soon we hope to have them ready for release for you to listen to and/or watch. During this time between the spring and fall feasts, we are doubling down on our efforts to get more streamlined in our event registration, online Judaica offerings, Q&A clips, and all the various resources you have come to expect from us. Hopefully, before Sukkot we will have them all developed and released with our new Lion and Lamb main website. We are confident it will make it easier and quicker to navigate to exactly what area of the ministry you are looking for.

FREE with a donation of any amount! Although I have been in the Messianic Movement for more than 30 years, and the Director of Lion and Lamb Ministries for over 20 years, I continue to be amazed and encouraged by the increasing number of new Messianic believers. At our last Sukkot and Shavuot celebrations, many brethren introduced themselves to me for the first time, announcing they were new to the Messianic Movement and that they have been led to a deeper understanding of Scripture, which has enhanced their walk with the Lord. Truly, the Lord was correct when He said that His Word does not return to Him void. But I have also discovered many of these new brethren asking, How does Messiah fit into the Feasts? I have put together a teaching expressly for new Messianic believers, which is designed to introduce them to the Feasts of the Lord using Messiah Yeshua as our example. I want this video to be a gift for them. With a donation of any amount to Lion and Lamb Ministries between now and August 31, 2017, we will send this teaching to you. Even if you are not new to the Messianic Movement, this teaching will be edifing to your walk and is great to share with friends and family! The topics covered include the spring and fall appointed feasts of the Lord, Messiah s role in the prophetic elements of the fulfilment of those feasts, as well as why the feasts are important for any believer and still relevant today! There are other topics as well, all of which a new Messianic believer will need to address in his or her walk. I pray that this video will encourage and strengthen those who have turned to the teaching of Moses as he taught about our Messiah King! We in the Messianic movement follow what Yeshua said in John 5:46-47, urging believers to study the foundation of Torah and understand what Yeshua meant when He said: Had you believed Moses, you would believe Me, for he wrote of Me...
