YAHWEH'S SetApart Covenant

A life SetApart from evil, a life SetApart unto YAHWEH

"YAHWEH has raised a horn of deliverance for in the house of David YAHWEH'S servant to remember YAHWEH'S SetApart Covenant the promise in which YAHWEH swore to Avraham our father. To grant us who have been delivered from the hand of our enemies so that we will serve without fear YAHWEH who Sets us Apart from evil and brings us to a right relationship with YAHWEH all of our days. Praised be YAHWEH the mighty One of Yisrael because YAHWEH has visited us and brought redemption for YAHWEH'S people. " Luka-(Luke) 1:68-75.

When ZecharYah-(Zachariah) was filled the SetApart Spirit and prophesied he spoke of YAHWEH'S visiting and releasing us from guilt and punishment by the ransom (redemption) of the horn of deliverance YAHSHUA the MESSIYAH, as a remembering of YAHWEH'S SetApart Covenant. ZecharYah spoke of what the promise of this Covenant would be by the Spirits revealing that which YAHWEH swore to Avraham, which gathers up all the former promises in these words: "to serve YAHWEH in separation from evil and in a right relationship with YAHWEH all of our days." To be SetApart from evil in life and service is a great gift of the Covenant of YAHWEH. As we have already seen the Old Covenant proclaimed and demanded that we be SetApart from evil the New Covenant provides this in the heart and life through the work of YAHSHUA by the SetApart Spirit. This is a great promise.

YAHWEH Is SetApart From All Evil And Will Not Allow YAHWEH'S Children To Walk In It 

YAHWEH is especially worshipped because of YAHWEH'S being SetApart from all defilement or all that is evil (Hebrew-Qodesh Greek-hagios), and because of YAHWEH'S attributes and power which are known through out the heavens and on the earth. YeshaYahu-(Isaiah) 6:1-7 & GilYahna-(Revelation) 4:8-11. YAHWEH does not take pleasure in evil nor will evil dwell with YAHWEH because YAHWEH hates all workers of evil. Tehillim (Psalm) 5:4-6. YAHWEH is SetApart from all evil and will not allow YAHWEH'S children to walk in it. This is the purpose of YAHWEH'S Covenant to Set us Apart from all that is evil or lawless, this is what is meant when the Spirit of YAHWEH says, "Be SetApart because I am SetApart. Kepha Alef-(1 Peter) 1:14-23, Yochanan Alef-(1John) 3:3. The highest conceivable summit of happiness is our being partakers of YAHWEH'S nature which includes being SetApart from every form of evil. This is the great blessing of the MESSIYAH YAHSHUA, the Mediator of the New Covenant!

YAHSHUA is both our way to become right with YAHWEH (righteousness) and the One who gives us power to be SetApart from evil by taking our disobedience and Law breaking upon HIMSELF when HE laid down HIS life.   QorintYah Bet-(2 Corinthians) 5:11-21. YAHSHUA requested from the ABBA, “I do not pray that YOU take them out of the world, but that YOU keep them from evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Set them Apart in the truth, YOUR Word is truth. And for their sake I have Set MYSELF Apart from all that defiles so that they will also be SetApart from evil in truth." Yochanan 17:15-20. In YAHSHUA we are SetApart from all that defiles or is evil. We have put on the new man, which is created in a right relationship with YAHWEH; and are SetApart from all that defiles through the MESSIYAH, by the Spirit that is in us. Separation from evil becomes OUR VERY NATURE IN THE MESSIYAH YAHSHUA!

We are SetApart in the MESSIYAH. As we believe and trust that this is true, we receive it by the working of the Spirit. As we yield ourselves to the truth, we can draw near to YAHWEH (who will not dwell with anything that is evil). Then we can have true fellowship with YAHWEH, because the nature of YAHWEH is purity from all that defiles! It is this that the Spirit does in our hearts, the Spirit works to purify our hearts from evil, as Sha'ul witnessed to: "YAHWEH has chosen you, first fruits to deliverance in separation from evil (sanctification) by the Spirit and belief and trust in the truth." TesloniqYah Bet-(2 Thessalonians) 2:13.

The SetApart Spirit Is The Spirit Of The Life Of The MESSIYAH YAHSHUA

The connection between YAHWEH'S choosing and the work of the Spirit, along with the word obey comes out with equal clearness in Kepha, "according to the foreknowledge of YAHWEH our ABBA in separation from evil by the Spirit, to obedience and sprinkling of the blood of YAHSHUA the MESSIYAH."  Kepha Alef 1:2. The SetApart Spirit is the Spirit of the life of the MESSIYAH YAHSHUA. As we come to know, honour, and trust YAHSHUA, we will learn and experience that in the New Covenant, separation from evil, which the Spirit works in us, is our New Covenant right! Then we will be assured that as YAHWEH promised, so the Spirit will work it in us, that we "should serve YAHWEH without fear, in righteousness and pureness before YAHWEH, all the days of our life." With the pureness from evil in YAHSHUA and YAHSHUA'S Spirit of pureness in our hearts, we can live a life SetApart from evil, a life SetApart unto YAHWEH! That is if we believe and trust YAHWEH, who will do it in us!

In light of this New Covenant promise, with the MESSIYAH and the SetApart Spirit to work it out in us, there comes new meaning to the teaching of the New Covenant. Take the first letter Sha'ul wrote. It was directed to believers who had only a few months previously been turned away from worshipping idols, to serve the living Mighty One, and they were waiting for YAHSHUA, who had risen into the heavens, to return. Sha'ul tells them in regard to their being SetApart from evil that they were to receive and expect this, because YAHWEH was working it in them, this work many believers pass right by as obscure, “Now YAHWEH our ABBA, and our Master YAHSHUA, may they direct our way to you and may our Master increase and overflow your love, one to another, to all people also, even as we love you. This will establish your hearts, blameless in separation from evil before YAHWEH our ABBA, in the presence of our Master YAHSHUA with all HIS SetApart from evil Ones-(saints). TesloniqYah Alef-(1 Thessalonians) 3:11-13. (NOTE: English versions translate the Greek hagios and its variances as; holy, holiness, sanctify, sanctification, hallowed, sanctuary, saints, sacred. The literal meaning is-to be separated from evil and SetApart unto YAHWEH. Vine's pg. 307).

This promise, to be SetApart from evil, blameless in heart, is established by YAHWEH through YAHSHUA! Sha'ul might have indeed said "Who has believed our report?" He had written of himself: "You are our witnesses, as is YAHWEH, how SetApart from evil, right before YAHWEH (righteous), and blameless we were with you, the ones that believe." TesloniqYah Alef 2:10. Sha'ul assured them of what YAHWEH had done for him, and what YAHWEH would do for them--give them hearts that are blameless, SetApart from evil! The Assembly (church) believes so little in the mighty power of YAHWEH and the truth of YAHWEH'S SetApart Covenant, so that such a heart of pureness from evil is hardly ever spoken of. This verse is often quoted in connection with the coming of YAHSHUA with HIS SetApart Ones, but its real point is that when HE does come, we will meet HIM with our hearts established, blameless in separation from evil, which YAHWEH does through the SetApart Spirit! All of this is not understood nor proclaimed nor expected.

Let us look at another verse in this letter. "YAHWEH the Mighty One of peace," this is a key to the New Covenant; what you cannot do YAHWEH will work in you, "Set you Apart from evil completely, “this you can ask for and expect", and your entire spirit, inner being and body be kept blameless in the presence of our Master YAHSHUA the MESSIYAH." TesloniqYah Alef- 5:24. This is the truth revealed of the New Covenant, that, that which has not entered into the mind nor the heart of man, YAHWEH WILL work in all those who wait on YAHWEH! Until the Assembly awakes to see and believe that being SetApart from evil is the gift of YAHWEH, through YAHSHUA, and worked out by the Spirit in us, and that our whole belief system must be an unceasing dependence to receive it direct from YAHWEH by the Spirit, all of these promises will remain a sealed book!

To grant us. It is a gift from above, the promise given with the Covenant was "I YAHWEH have spoken it, I will do it! "We need to ask YAHWEH to show us both what YAHWEH will do, and that YAHWEH will do it all in us. When we believe and trust, expecting all from YAHWEH, then the promises will be found. "Who have been delivered out of the hand of our enemies." ZecharYah has just before this said: YAHWEH has raised a horn of deliverance for us in the house of David, deliverance from our enemies and the hand that hates us. It is only a free people who can serve a Pure Mighty One, or be pure themselves. It is only as the teaching of RomiYah-(Romans) 6:5-14 is experienced and we come to know that we are "freed from Law breaking and "freed from the Law" and that "the Spirit of life in the MESSIYAH YAHSHUA has made us free from the Law of Law breaking and death," that in perfect freedom from every evil power that can hinder us, we will expect YAHWEH to do YAHWEH'S mighty work in us.

"Serving YAHWEH"

YAHWEH'S children should not serve YAHWEH by spending all their time getting ready for work, but doing YAHWEH'S work! YAHSHUA sets us free, and equips us by YAHWEH'S unmerited favor, so that YAHWEH may have us for YAHWEH'S work--the same work YAHSHUA began, and we now carry on!

"Without Fear"

We should have the confidence of a child and yet be bold before YAHWEH. And before people too. A freedom from fear in every difficulty, because having learned to know that YAHWEH works all in us, we can trust YAHWEH to work all for us and through us.

"Before YAHWEH"

With YAHWEH'S unceasing presence with us all through the day; As the unceasing security of our obedience and our fearlessness, the never failing secret of our being SetApart from evil completely!

 "All of our days"

Not only all the day for one day, but for every day, because YAHSHUA is the High Kohen-(Priest) in the power of an endless life, and the mighty operation of YAHWEH as promised in the Covenant is as unchanging as is YAHWEH!

Does it begin to dawn on you that YAHWEH'S Word does appear to mean much more than you have ever conceived or expected? It should be this way. It is only when we begin to say; Honour to YAHWEH, who is able to do much more above all we can ask or think; and expect YAHWEH'S mighty, supernatural, altogether immeasurable power and favor to work out the New Covenant life in us, to purify us from every kind of evil; that we will really come to the place of helplessness and dependence where YAHWEH can work in and through us!

I pray brothers and sisters, do believe YAHWEH'S Word is true, and say with ZecharYah "Praised be YAHWEH, the Mighty One of Yisrael, who has visited YAHWEH'S people, to remember YAHWEH'S SetApart Covenant, and to grant us, that we, who are delivered from the hand of our enemies; will serve YAHWEH without fear, in separation from evil and a right relationship before YAHWEH, all of our days." So be it.
