with all you know who are seeking to know YAHWEH and who
desire to know Him and obey his will. It is so abundantly clear in
the Bible that this is the best kept secret of the Messiah—that he
came to give us eternal life. And eternal life is this: to know the THE REFINERS FIRE
Messiah and to know YAHWEH (John 17:2-3).

 We Believe:
• The Bible, composed of both the Tanakh and New Covenant, is the only
harmonious, infallible and authoritative Word of God.

• ‫יהוה‬ (YHWH, YAHWEH—God the Father) is “echad” (plural form of

one) as declared in the Sh’ma (Dt. 6:4). Yeshua, the Son, is the "arm" of
YAHWEH (Exodus 6:6, Isaiah 53:1) whose qnoma (nature) was fully divine
even though His body was human, sent to Earth to teach men about YAH-
WEH, how to worship Him, how to live according to YAHWEH's Torah, and
then to martyr Himself as our Final SIN Sacrifice. He is not a demi-God or
part of a "trinity" or any other entity separate and distinct from the one
God of Israel. Yeshua did not come to replace His Father or His Father's
Torah (Matthew 5:17-20).
• Spiritual deliverance and salvation is available to those who place their
trust in Yeshua's atoning death and His divine interpretation of Torah.
• The regenerating work of the Spirit of YAHWEH is essential to salvation.
This is not a separate Spirit distinct from God, it is the Spirit of God - the

‫ישוע‬
same Spirit as described in Genesis 1. We believe in the present ministry
of the Spirit and in the exercise of all of the Biblical gifts of the Spirit.
• No one is justified through keeping “the Law of Moses.” Rather, the Torah
was given as a guide for Godly living. Without Torah, man would have
NO blueprint for moral, holy living! Since YAHWEH is immutable, the
spiritual principles embodied in Torah are binding upon believers today.
• Because there is a spiritual unity between all believers in Yeshua everyone
must adhere to Torah. We are all one in Messiah (Ephesians 2:15). YAH-
WEH did not hand down separate rules for His natural and adopted chil-
dren, as revealed in Numbers 15:13-16.
• Jeremiah 31:32 tells us that YAHWEH made His "new covenant" not with
the Gentiles or Christians or Muslims or any religious “denomination” or
anyone else except the Houses of Israel and Judah. He did, however, ex-
tend His grace and mercy to the Gentiles who, once they become believers
in Yeshua, automatically become part of "Israel"! And God told Israel: "I
give you good instruction: Do not forsake my Torah" (Proverbs 4:2). And
Paul reiterated this when he said: Do we then nullify the Law through
faith? May it never be! On the contrary, we establish the Law. (Romans
3:31)
• God has a special, everlasting covenant relationship with the Jewish peo-
ple, which includes unique spiritual and physical blessings. In the end
times, all Israel will turn to God and accept Yeshua as the Messiah prom-
ised in the Torah. Then will the Law go forth from Zion and the Word of
the Lord from Jerusalem.

 The Netzarim Faith
... is the belief In YAHWEH, the God of Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob. We believe His Son Yeshua is YAHWEH-Come-in-the-
Flesh and the Redeemer spoken of in the Jewish Bible. We be-
lieve that He is the Messiah for whom Jewish people all over
the world, and throughout history have been waiting for.
Netzarim, or Nazarenes, are the original followers of Yeshua
who live according to Torah and the Ketuvim Netzarim
(writings of the Netzarim) which includes adhering to the Sev-
enth Day Sabbath and the Seven Feasts. Yeshua Mashiyach
(Jesus the Messiah) made a way for each one to receive the
anointing of the Ruach HaKodesh (Set-Apart Spirit) and learn
His Word according to the Tanach (Torah - instructions in
righteousness; Neviim - prophets; Ketuvim -writings) and
Ketuvim Netzarim.
We observe Torah as did Yeshua and His Talmidim (disciples).
Netzari come from all manner of Christian, Jewish, atheist,
Eastern and other religious backgrounds to live according to
the Faith of Yeshua. We follow an ancient and future calendar
based on Torah which is the authoritative Word of YAHWEH.
For Netzarim the Good News or Gospel is the entire Bible. We
regard Yeshua as Lawgiver and Teacher of all Righteousness.

* The original translation is “… and commanded us to kindle the Sabbath lights”, but since YAHWEH
did not “command” us to kindle the Sabbath lights, it is preferred to say “...for whom we kindle”.

 Prayer to End the Day
Thank You, YAHWEH, that You have brought me into Your
family and have blessed me with every spiritual blessing in
the heavenly places in Messiah Yeshua. Thank You for this
time of renewal and refreshment through sleep. I accept it as
one of Your blessings for Your children, and I trust You to
guard my mind and my body during my sleep.
As I have thought about You and Your truth during the day,
I choose to let those good thoughts continue in my mind while
I am asleep. I commit myself to You for Your protection
against every attempt of the evil one to attack me during
sleep. Guard my mind from nightmares. I renounce all fear
and cast every worry upon You, Lord. I commit myself to
You as my Rock, my Fortress and my Strong Tower. May
Your shalom be upon this place of rest. In the strong name of
Yeshua my Messiah.

Prayer to Begin the Day
YAHWEH, my Father, I praise You and honor You as my
Lord and Savior. You are in control of all things. I thank
You that You are always with me and will never leave me or
forsake me. You are the all-powerful and wise God. You are
kind and loving in all Your ways. I love You and thank You
that I am united with Messiah and am spiritually alive in
Him. I choose not to love the world or the things in the
world, and I call to death my evil inclination with all its
passions.
Thank You for the life I now have in Messiah Yeshua. I ask
You to fill me with the Holy Spirit so I may say ‘no’ to sin
and ‘yes’ to You. I declare my total dependence upon You,
and I take my stand against the evil one and all his lying
ways. I choose to believe the truth of Your word despite
what my feelings and emotions may say. I refuse to be dis-
couraged; You are the God of all hope. Nothing is too
difficult for You. I am confident that You will supply all my
needs as I seek to live according to Your word. I thank You
that I can be content and live a responsible life through
Messiah Who strengthens me.
I now take my stand against the evil one and command him
and all his cohorts to depart from me. I choose to put on the
full armor of God so that I might be able to stand firm
against his schemes. I submit my body as a living and holy
sacrifice to You, my God, and I choose to renew my mind by
the living Word of God. By doing so I will be able to prove
that the will of God is good, acceptable and perfect for me. I
ask all of this in the name of my Lord, Yeshua.
Hear O Israel, YAHWEH is one. Blessed be His great name
Whose kingdom is forever and ever.
 PRAYERS OF CONFESSION
Regarding Bitterness and Unforgiveness
I choose to not hold on to any resentments that I have against
________ (add name of person). I thank You for setting me free
from the bondage of my bitterness. I relinquish my right to
seek revenge and ask You, YAHWEH, to heal my damaged
emotions. I now ask You to bless those who have hurt me.
PEACE BE UNTO YOU
Peace unto you, you ministering angels,
messengers of the Most High, the King of kings,

empty conceit. With humility of mind, I will regard others me-meh-lehkh mahl-khay hahm-lah-kheem
as more important than myself. I choose to make You, Lord, hah-kah-dosh bah-rukh hoo

BLESSING FOR THE MOTHER/WIFE
An excellent wife, who can find one? For her worth is far
above jewels. The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he
will have no lack of gain. She does him good and not evil all
the days of her life. She looks for wool and flax, and works
with her hands in delight. She is like merchant ships; she
brings her food from afar. She rises also while it is still night,
and gives food to her household and portions to her maidens.
She considers a field and buys it; from her earnings she plants
a vineyard. She girds herself with strength, and makes her
arms strong. She senses that her gain is good; her lamp does
not go out at night. She stretches out her hands to the distaff,
and her hands grasp the spindle. She extends her hands to
the poor; and she stretches out her hand to the needy. She is
8 69
6. I believe that apart from Messiah I can do nothing, so I
declare my complete dependence on Him. I choose to abide
in Messiah in order to bear much fruit and glorify my
Father. I announce that Yeshua is my Savior. I reject any
and all counterfeit gifts or works of the evil one in my life.
(John 15:5, 8; 1 Corinthians 12:3)
7. I believe that the truth will set me free and that Yeshua is
the truth. If He sets me free, I will be free indeed. I recog-
nize that walking in the light is the only path of true fellow-
ship between God and man. Therefore, I stand against all of
the evil one’s deception by taking every thought captive in
obedience to Messiah. I declare that the Holy Scriptures are
the only authoritative standard for truth and life.
(John 8:32, 36; 14:6; 2 Corinthians 10:5; 2 Timothy 3:15-17; 1 John 1:3-7)
8. I choose to present my body to YAHWEH as a living and
holy sacrifice, and the members of my body as instruments of
righteousness. I choose to renew my mind by the living
Word of God in order that I may prove that the will of God
is good, acceptable and perfect. I put off the old self with its
evil practices and put on the new self. I declare that in Mes-
siah, I am a new creation.
(Romans 6:13; 12:1-2; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Colossians 3:9-10)
9. By trusting, I choose to be filled with the Spirit so that I
can be guided into all truth. I choose to walk by the Spirit so
that I will not carry out the desires of the flesh.
(John 16:13; Galatians 5:16; Ephesians 5:18)
10. I renounce all selfish goals and choose the ultimate goal
of love. I choose to obey the two greatest commandments: to
love YAHWEH with all my heart, soul, mind and strength,
and to love my neighbor as myself. I obey the command to
submit to YAHWEH and resist the evil one.
(Deuteronomy 6:5; Matthew 22:37-39; 1 Timothy 1:5; James 4:7)
 DECLARATIONS OF TRUTH
1. I recognize that there is only one true and living God Who
reveals Himself as Av (Father), Ben (Son) and Ruach
HaKodesh (Holy Spirit). I acknowledge He is not a “trinity”
but, rather, Echad. He is worthy of all honor, praise and
glory as the One Who made all things and holds all things to-
gether. (Exodus 20:2-3; Colossians 1:16-17)
2. I recognize that Yeshua is the Messiah, the Word Who be-
came flesh and dwelt among us. I believe that He came to
destroy the works of the evil one, and that He disarmed the
rulers and authorities and made a public display of them,
having triumphed over them. (John 1:1,14; Colossians 2:15; 1 John
3:8)
3. I believe that YAHWEH demonstrated His own love for me
in that while I was still a sinner, Messiah died for me. I be-
lieve that He has delivered me from the domain of darkness
and transferred me to His kingdom, and in Him I have re-
demption and the forgiveness of sins. (Romans 5:8; Colossians 1:13-
14)
4. I believe that in Messiah, I am now a child of YAHWEH and
that I am seated with Messiah in the heavenlies. I believe that
I was saved by the grace of God through faith, and that it was
a gift and not a result of any works or merit on my part.
(Ephesians 2:6,8-9; 1 John 3:1-3)
5. I choose to be strong in YAHWEH and in the strength of His
might. I put no confidence in the flesh, for the weapons of my
warfare are not of the flesh but are divinely powerful for the
destruction of strongholds. I put on the full armor of God. I
resolve to stand firm in my trust and resist the evil one. (2 Co-
rinthians 10:4; Ephesians 6:10-20; Philippians 3:3)
68
not afraid of the snow for her household, for all her
household are clothed with scarlet. She makes coverings for
herself; her clothing is fine linen and purple. Her husband is
known in the gates, when he sits among the elders of the
land. She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies
belts to the tradesmen. Strength and dignity are her
clothing, and she smiles at the future. She opens her mouth
in wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
She looks well to the ways of her household, and does not eat
the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and bless her; her
husband also; and he praises her saying, “Many daughters
have done nobly, but you excel them all!” Charm is deceitful
and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord, she
shall be praised. (Proverbs 31:10-31)
BLESSING FOR THE HUSBAND/FATHER
Halleluyah! Happy is the man who fears YAHWEH, who de-
lights greatly in His commandments. His seed shall be
mighty upon the earth, the generation of the upright shall be
blessed. Wealth and riches shall be in his house, and his
righteousness shall endure forever. Unto the upright there
arises light in the darkness; he is gracious, full of compas-
sion, and just. A man is good who lends with grace, he con-
ducts his affairs justly. Surely he shall never be moved; the
righteous will be eternally remembered. He shall not be
afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord.
His heart is established, he shall not be afraid when he gazes
upon his enemies. He has distributed freely, he has given to
the poor; his righteousness endures forever, his horn shall be
exalted with honor. (Psalm 112:1-9)

accept your share in suffering disgrace for the sake of the
Good News. God will give you the strength for it.
(Ephesians 1:17-20)
The God of our Lord, Yeshua the Messiah, the glorious Fa-
ther, may He give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation, so
that you will have full knowledge of Him. I pray that He will
give light to the eyes of your hearts, so that you will under-
stand the future to which He has called you, what rich glo-
ries there are in the inheritance He has promised His peo-
ple, and how surpassingly great is His power working in us
who trust Him. It works as the same mighty strength He
used when He raised Messiah from the dead and seated Him
at His right hand in heaven.
(Ephesians 3:16-19)
I pray that from the treasures of His glory He will empower
you with inner strength by His Spirit, so that the Messiah
may live in your hearts through your trusting. Also I pray
that you will be rooted and founded in love, so that you,
with all YAHWEH’s people, will be given strength to grasp
the breadth, length, height and depth of the Messiah’s love,
yes, to know it, even though it is beyond all knowing, so that
you will be filled with all the fullness of God.

Blessing over the bread
Yochanan 6:31 - 35 Our fathers ate manna in the desert ... as
it says in the Tanakh, "He gave them bread from heaven to
eat." Yeshua said to them, "Yes, indeed! I tell you, it wasn't
Moshe who gave you the bread from heaven. But My Father
is giving you the Genuine Bread from heaven, for YAHWEH's
bread is the One Who comes down out of heaven and gives
life to the world." They said to Him, "Sir, give us this bread
from now on." Yeshua answered, "I am the bread which is
life! Whoever comes to Me will never go hungry,
and whoever trusts in Me will never be thirsty."

BLESSINGS OVER THE PEOPLE
(One or more of the following blessings may be proclaimed)
(Numbers 6:24-26)
YAHWEH bless you and keep you. YAHWEH make His face
shine upon you, and be gracious to you; YAHWEH lift up
His countenance upon you, and give you peace.
(2 Corinthians 2:14-15)
But thanks be to YAHWEH, Who in the Messiah constantly
leads us in a triumphal procession and through us spreads
everywhere the fragrance of what it means to know him!
For to God we are the aroma of the Messiah, both among
those being saved and among those being lost.
(Mathew 28:19-20)
As all authority has been given to Yeshua, so I repeat His
charge to you with the assurance of His ability in you;
Therefore, go and make people from all nations into disci-
ples, immersing them into the reality of the Father, the Son
and the Ruach haKodesh, and teaching them to obey
everything that I have commanded you. And remember! I
will be with you always, yes, even until the end of the age.”
(Mark 16:15, 17-18)
As you go throughout the world, proclaim the Good News
to all creation. Whoever trusts and is immersed will be
saved; whoever does not trust will be condemned. And
these signs will accompany those who trust: in My name
they will drive out demons, speak with new tongues, not be
injured if they handle snakes or drink poison, and heal the
sick by laying hands on them.”
(2 Timothy 1:6-8)
For this reason I am reminding you to fan the flame of
God’s gift, which you received through the laying on of
hands. For YAHWEH gave us a Spirit Who produces not
timidity, but power, love and self-discipline. So don’t be

delivered), and raised us up together in the heavenly places
in Messiah Yeshua,
that in the ages to come, He might show the exceeding
riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Messiah
Yeshua.
For by grace we have been delivered through faith, and that
not of ourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest any-
one should boast.
For we are His workmanship, created in Messiah Yeshua
for good works, which YAHWEH prepared beforehand that
we should walk in them.
That He would grant us, according to the riches of His glory,
to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner
man,
That Messiah may dwell in our hearts through faith; that
we being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to com-
prehend with all the holy ones what is the width and length
and depth and height of His great love,
To know the love of Messiah which surpasses all understand-
ing; that we may be filled with all the fullness of YAHWEH.
Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly
above all that we ask or think, according to the power that
works in us.
To Him be glory in the congregation by Messiah Yeshua
throughout all ages, world without end. Amain.

PSALM 92
A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day.
It is good to praise YAHWEH
and make music to Your Name, O Most High;
to proclaim Your love in the morning
and Your faithfulness at night
to the music of the ten-stringed lyre
and the melody of the harp.
For You make me glad by Your deeds, YAHWEH.
I sing for joy at the works of Your hands.
How great are Your works,
and profound Your thoughts, YAHWEH.
The senseless man does not know,
fools do not understand,
that though the wicked spring up like grass
and evildoers flourish, they will be forever destroyed.
But You, YAHWEH, are exalted forever.
For surely Your enemies will perish;
all evildoers will be scattered.
You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox;
fine oils have been poured upon me.
My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries;
my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.
The righteous will flourish like a palm tree,
they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon
planted in the house of the Lord.
They will flourish in the courts of our God.
They will still bear fruit in old age,
they will stay fresh and green, saying, “the Lord is upright.”
He is my Rock, no wickedness is in Him.

And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written, “The Deliverer

OUR POSITION IN YESHUA
(Adapted from Ephesians 1:17-21; 2:4-10, 3:16-20)
May the God of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, the Father of
glory, give to us the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the
knowledge of Him,
The eyes of our understanding being enlightened; that you may
know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the
glory of His inheritance among His holy ones,,
And what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us
who believe, according to the working of His mighty power
which He worked in Messiah when He raised Him from the
dead,
And seated Him at His right hand far above all principality and
power and might and dominion.
God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with
which He loves us, even when we were dead in trespasses,

GOD’S ETERNAL PROMISES TO ISRAEL
(responsively)
O, YAHWEH, our Father, the God of Abraham, God of Isaac,
God of Jacob, the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua the
Messiah, You have given many promises to your ancient peo-
ple, Israel. So we bring these promises to You in trust,
knowing that as we pray them back to You, You will surely
fulfill your Word.
I will make you a great nation … I will bless those who bless
you and curse him who curse you; and in you all the families
of the earth will be blessed. (Genesis 12:2-3)
By Myself I have sworn, says the Lord, because you … have
not withheld your son, your only son, in blessing I will bless
you … I will multiply your descendants as the sand which is
on the seashore, and your descendants shall possess the gate
of their enemies. (Genesis 22:16-17)
Yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I
will not cast them away, nor shall I abhor them to utterly de-
stroy them and break My covenant with them; for I am the
Lord their God. (Leviticus 26:44)
It shall come to pass in that day that the Lord shall set His
hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His
people who are left. (Isaiah 11:11)
The days are coming, says YAHWEH, that they shall no longer
say, “The Lord lives Who brought up the children of Israel
from the land of Egypt,” but “As the Lord lives Who brought
up the children of Israel from the land of the north and from
all the lands where I had driven them.” And they shall dwell in
their own land. (Jeremiah 16:14-15)

Who has given us the New Covenant scriptures. The New
Covenant has come with surpassing unfading glory. All else
before it pales in its light, the light of Yeshua the Messiah.
You have poured out Your Spirit upon us and have written
Your Torah upon our hearts according to the promise of the

hands of the few. Against all odds, battles were repeatedly
won by Your faithful remnant. So those who were unfaith-
ful and were willing to forsake Your covenants were de-
posed and those who were faithful were established. The
Temple was rededicated with accompanying miracles. Of
this temple, it was said that its latter glory would eclipse its
former glory. Indeed, without the miracles of those days,
the word would not have been fulfilled. Indeed, Your
word was fulfilled and the Messenger of the Covenant, Ye-
shua the Messiah, came to the Temple. The lights that were
rekindled on that Feast of Dedication remind us of the One
who said, “I am the light of the world.” Yeshua, Who died
as our true Temple Sacrifice and Who is our Great High
Priest, rose from the dead. He is the light of Israel and the
light of the world. Blessed are You, YAHWEH, for the deliv-
erance of Israel in the days of the Macabees.

Your covenant with Israel, as a memorial of Your creation
of the heavens and the earth in six days and Your ceasing
to create during the seventh day. The Sabbath is a memo-
rial of the exodus wherein we were freed from the bond-
age of constant work under slavery. The Sabbath is a
manifestation of the restoration of the age to come. It is a
day for healing and freedom in Yeshua, through whom we
enter into our rest with God. He is the Lord of the Sab-
bath and gives the Sabbath as a gift to man. Blessed are
You, YAHWEH, who has given us the Sabbath.
5. You, YAHWEH, regather Your people from the four
corners of the earth and prepare the way for world re-
demption. You fulfill the promise to Israel and lead her to
fulfill her calling. For in the last days, Israel will be a sign
of the return of the Messiah Yeshua. She will herald His
coming when she cries out, “Blessed is He who comes in
the Name of YAHWEH.” Blessed are You, YAHWEH, who
regathers the people of Israel.

YESHUA, LORD OF THE SABBATH
(Responsively)
As Yeshua is the Lord of the Sabbath, we are reminded
that the Sabbath was made for man. It is the memorial
of creation, for in six days YAHWEH made the heavens
and the earth, and in the seventh day He rested.
It is a memorial of our freedom from Egypt as well. The
Exodus was the great miracle of God for Israel’s deliver-
ance from Egypt and declares that Israel is to be a free
people.
The Sabbath is a day of liberty from all bondage, a day
for healing. Yeshua invites us, “Come unto me all you
that labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest.
Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me … for My yoke
is easy and My burden is light.”
We are encouraged to not fail to respond in faith and to be
excluded from entering into the rest of God provided
through faith in Yeshua.
We look forward to the age of rest to come when Yeshua
shall rule over all the earth. Let us praise and worship
Him in joy and thanksgiving.

WEH, to serve Him and to love the Name, to be His servants,
everyone that keeps the Shabbat from polluting it, and takes
hold of My covenant; even them will I bring to My Holy
mountain...
(Isaiah 56:6-7a)
Shabbat, from the word ‘to rest,' was given to Jew and non-
Jew for Oneg, joy, or delight. Isaiah said, “You shall call
Shabbat a delight.” (Isaiah 58:13) Oneg implies celebration,
sharing time with loved ones, leisurely meals with hospitality
and relaxation.
The Shabbat is to be Kodesh or Holy. “Remember the
day, Shabbat, to set it apart for YAHWEH. You have six days
to labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a
Shabbat for YAHWEH."
(Exodus 20:8-9)
Blessed are You, YAHWEH, King of the universe
Who makes a distinction between the holy and the secular,
light and darkness, Israel and the nations,
the seventh day and the six days of labor.

PRAYERS
HA ELOHIM ASHER
(Hebrews 1:1-3)
In the past YAHWEH spoke to our fathers through the prophets,
at many times in various ways; but now, in the end of days, He
has spoken to us by the Messiah, His Son, Whom He appointed
the Heir of all things, and through Whom He made the uni-
verse. The Son is the full radiance of God's glory, the flawless
manifestation of His reality. He sustains all things by His
powerful word. After He made atonement for sins, He sat down
at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.
The help of our fathers are You from ages past. A Shield and
a Savior to their children after them in all generations.
Happy is the man who heeds Your commandments, Your To-
rah, and who places Your word upon his heart. It is true that
You are the Lord of Your people and the mighty King to
plead their case. It is true, You are the First and the Last,
and besides You we have no King, Redeemer and Savior.
From Egypt You redeemed us, YAHWEH our God, and from
the house of slavery You delivered us. All their first born You
slayed, and Your first born You redeemed. At the Red Sea
You divided and drowned the proud, but the beloved ones
You caused to pass through while the waters covered their
adversaries. You are High and Wonderful, Great and Awe-
some, Who brings low the proud and raises the humble, Who
brings forth the prisoners and delivers the meek and helps the
poor and answers His people in the time when they cry to
Him. Praise our exalted God! Blessed is He Who is to be
blessed! Moses and the people of Israel sang a song to You
with great joy. "Who is like You, YAHWEH among the gods;
who is like You, glorious in holiness, awesome in praises, do-
ing wonders."

and may our part be with them. Forever may we not be

Stay and Trust of the righteous.
14. Return to Jerusalem, Your city, with mercy and dwell in

and in our day, as a building forever. The throne of David

God Who hears prayer and supplication. From Your pres-
ence, our King, do not dismiss us empty handed, for You hear
the prayers of Your people Israel in mercy. Blessed are You,
YAHWEH, Who hears prayer.

their prayer, and restore the service to Your holy house; re-

King, for we have transgressed. For You pardon and forgive.
Blessed are You, YAHWEH, gracious and every ready to for-
give.
7. Look at us, please answer us and defend our cause, redeem
us quickly for the sake of Your Name, for You are a strong
Redeemer. Blessed are You, YAHWEH, Redeemer of Israel.
8. Heal us, YAHWEH, and we shall be healed, save us and we
shall be saved, for You are our praise. Grant complete heal-
ing for all our wounds, for You are the God and King Who
heals and is faithful and merciful. Blessed are You, YAHWEH,
Healer of the sick of the people of Israel.
9. Your blessings be upon us, YAHWEH our God, for this year
and for all kinds of produce. Give a blessing upon the face of
the land; satisfy us with Your goodness and bless our year as
the good years past. Blessed are You, YAHWEH, who blesses
the years.
10. Sound upon the great shofar, our freedom; raise the great
banner to gather our exiles, and assemble us together from

 ABRIDGED AMIDAH THE MESSIAH YESHUA

Grant us, YAHWEH, the knowledge of Your ways;

Blessed are You, YAHWEH, Who has given us the way
of salvation in Messiah Yeshua.
Direct our hearts to Your worship;
He walked among us filled with Your Spirit,
Forgive us so that we may be redeemed;
the only One Who ever fulfilled Your Torah.
He healed the sick and raised the dead.
Keep us from suffering,
The multitudes of our people sought His touch.
He taught as no man taught.
Satisfy us with the produce of the earth,
With authority He brought forth the treasures of the Torah.
How the children sought Him!
and gather our dispersed from the four corners of the earth;
He touched the lepers and made them clean!
How the despised and outcast found love
and those who stray from Your knowledge - judge;
and release from their sin!
How the hypocrites feared Him
and upon the wicked make Your hand heavy;
Whose words uncovered their sin!
Despised and rejected, acquainted with grief,
and may the righteous rejoice at the building of Your house,
He bore the sins of Israel and the world.
the construction of Your Temple,
All we like sheep have gone astray,
turned every one to his own way.

Our iniquities were laid upon the King,
the sins of the world, His burden to bear.
and the lengthening of the light of Your Messiah,
He rose from the dead and opened the way to life everlasting.

Praise His Name! We are in Him, His Spirit empowers us;
new life is ours with joy and peace.
Before we call, answer us.
Blessed are You, YAHWEH our God,
Blessed are You, YAHWEH, Who hears prayer.
Who has given us Messiah Yeshua our King!

 A Sabbath Morning Prayer and Declaration

Come let us welcome Shabbat, and sing praise to God, and

pray for the eternal Shabbat, the End of the Days, the Ever-
lasting Kingdom.

Every living thing shall bless Your name, YAHWEH our God,
and all flesh shall ever acclaim and exalt Your fame. From
everlasting to everlasting You are God; and beside You we
have no King, Who redeems and saves, liberates and delivers,
Who supports and comforts in all times of trouble and dis-
tress; yes, we have no King but You.

You are God of the first and of the last ages, God of all crea-
tures, Lord of all generations, adored in countless praises,

‫ישוע‬
guiding Your world with faithful love, and Your creatures
with tender mercies.

YAHWEH neither slumbers nor sleeps; He wakes the sleepers

and rouses the slumberers; He makes the lame walk, liberates
the prisoners, supports the falling, and raises up those who
are bowed down.

To You alone we give thanks. If our mouths were full of

songs as the sea, and our tongues full of praise as its many
waves, and our lips full of thanks as the wide expanse of the
skies; if our eyes were shining with light like the sun and the
moon, and our hands were spread forth like the wings of ea-
gles, and our feet were swift as the wild deer; we should still
be unable to thank You and to praise Your Name, YAHWEH
our God and God of our fathers, for one thousandth or one
ten thousandth part of the good things which You have be-
stowed on our fathers and on us.

42 35
 ALENU
It is incumbent upon us to praise the Master of all,
to exalt the Creator of the world,
for He has made us distinct from the nations
and unique among the families of the earth.
Our destiny is not like theirs, our calling is our task.
We bow down and acknowledge before the King of Kings
that there is none like Him.
For He stretched forth the heavens like a tent
and established the earth.
Truly there is none like our Lord and King.
As the Torah says, “You shall know this day
and reflect in your heart that it is YAHWEH Who is God
in the heavens above and on the earth beneath,
there is none else.”
We hope, YAHWEH our God, to soon behold Your majestic
glory when all abominations shall be at an end.
Then shall the world be perfected under the rule of the Lord
Almighty and all mankind shall call upon Your Name.
For to You every knee must bow
and every tongue declare that You are God.
Reign over us soon and forever.
May the kingdom of David's greater Son be established forever.
For then shall the words be fulfilled,
“Yeshua shall be King forever,”
and “Yeshua shall be King over all the earth”;
on that day YAHWEH shall be one, and His Name one."

A Sabbath Morning Prayer and Declaration
Blessed are You, YAHWEH our God, Ruler of the universe,
Who forms light and creates darkness,
Who makes peace and creates all things.
Who in mercy gives light to the earth
and to those that dwell there,
and in Your goodness renews the creation
every day forever.
Many are Your works, YAHWEH!
In wisdom You have made them all;
the earth is full of Your creations.
O King, Who alone was exalted from early times,
Praised, glorified and extolled from days of old.
O everlasting God,
in Your abundant mercies have mercy on upon us,
Lord of our strength, Rock of our stronghold,
Shield of our salvation, Stronghold of ours.
The blessed God, great in knowledge,
designed and formed the rays of the sun;
it was a source of glory to His Name;
He placed the sun, moon and stars by His strength.
The chiefs of His hosts are holy beings that exalt the
Almighty, and continually declare the glory of God
and His holiness.
Be blessed, YAHWEH our God, for the excellence of Your
handiwork in all creation.
