YAHWEH desires to see HIS people trust in HIM

YAHWEH desires to see HIS people trust in HIM and what HE is doing so that HE may bless them with the only true contentment: YAHWEH's Contentment. People in the olam (world) today are full of displeasure and discontent. It is not the external things that are causing them to be oppressed and depressed. This generation does not trust YAHWEH but relies on the power of the flesh. The flesh is corrupt and will deceive you. We must be content with all YAHWEH does. You will know that you are full of YAHWEH's contentment when you do not murmur and complain about the situation YAHWEH has placed you in.

With Great Contentment There Will Be Great Gain

The heart of man today is doing everything to find pleasure, and, yet, there is no pleasure to be found in this olam (world). 1 Timothy 6:6 Shaul speaks to Timothy that one who regards YAHWEH with great contentment to that one it is great gain. Not only gain but immeasurable gain. When one regards the teachings of YAHWEH and applies them to their lev (heart) there is great gain. This one will posses a strength that is unfailing and will not be given over unto the elements of this olam (world). This tremendous advantage is for us if we have the righteous Torah of YAHWEH dwelling in us.

A Rebellious House That Resists Truth

Shaul wrote unto Timothy because he knew that Timothy was dealing with a rebellious house. This people wanted to integrate their pagan traditions with the true worship of YAHWEH. Shaul wrote to encourage Timothy that he may be assured as to who he was and the purpose that YAHWEH called him to. This is the same type of house that we have today. The reason many are not pleased with what YAHWEH is doing is because they cannot even hear YAHWEH. When YAHWEH speaks HE causes our lev (heart) to be at ease. This generation does not hear YAHWEH so it cannot be at ease and content.

The Flesh Must Be Destroyed For the Contentment of YAHWEH to Reside in Our Lev

The strength and the element of our flesh must be destroyed for the contentment of YAHWEH to flourish in our lev (heart). The flesh is arrogant, full of pride and haughty. It will not abide any law and must be destroyed. There is nothing beyond the will of the flesh and nothing it will not do to realize it's wicked desires. It must be brought under the control of the Torah of YAHWEH.

Why Labor for Things that Have No Relevance at All?

What did we bring into this world? We brought nothing and it is certain that we will bring nothing out. Shaul was trying to convey to us that we should be content and satisfied with whatever YAHWEH is doing for us. HE wants to show that HE is able to supply all our needs. YAHWEH desires for us to have a trusting lev (heart) towards HIM, and to have no displeasure in HIM. It is certain that this life is going to end and that we are going to exit the olam (world). The duration of your life is no more than a vapor of smoke. The value on our lives is much greater than ascertaining the riches of the wicked. Even if you acquire 50 billion dollars, you will take nothing with you when you die.

The Deceit of Riches in Christendom

Christendom teaches that their god wants them to be rich and "prosperous". YAHWEH does not want HIS people to be rich in worldly goods but rich in emunah (faith) and content with what we have. One that desires to be rich will fall into many foolish and hurtful lusts because their lev (heart) cannot be satisfied. The mastery of the enemy causes men to strive for things that have no real value. When you walk in spiritual whoredom you can never be satisfied. Many are not content today because they want to be religious. It doesn't matter what pleasures one experiences when they play the part of the spiritual harlot they will not be satisfied. This spirit of Christendom has corrupted many in this hour. YAHWEH's desire is for us to be content with food and raiment.

Dysfunctional Families Are a Direct Result of Discontent

Many families are dysfunctional today because the parents and children cannot be satisfied with such things as they have. Parents give their children every kind of trinket and the children are still discontent. There is such animosity between parents and their children that it is almost impossible for them to even converse. The children want even more than the parents can provide. They mock their ahvot (fathers) and despise their emot (mothers). These children will die in their wickedness. The Scriptures tell us what parents must do and the proper order of a child.

We Cannot Suffer Anything Because We Are Full of Discontent

Although YAHSHUA was the SON, HE learned obedience through the things he suffered. We have not learned to be satisfied so we are not able to suffer anything for YAHWEH. It pleased YAHWEH to bruise YAHSHUA but we are not willing to be bruised. We are not satisfied with the course HE has set our lives on. We are not satisfied with food and raiment because we have allowed our eyes to be consumed with the deceitfulness of riches.

YAHWEH's Ability to Provide and the Contentment this Provision Merits

YAHWEH wants us to understand HIS great contentment and to trust solely in HIM. HE feeds the sparrows and wants us to know that without HIM even seeds would not grow to provide food. HE is the one who supplies all things whether one is righteous or wicked. Contentment means to be committed to YAHWEH and to have a mind to do whatever YAHWEH commands.

In Philippians 4:10 Shaul speaks to us to say that we should be content in whatever state we find ourselves in. We should be content whether we are poor or rich. Shaul knew what it was to have abundance of bread and to be hungry. In either situation, Shaul had learned to be content.

The Little Possessed by a Righteous Man

The little that a righteous man has is greater than the riches of many wicked because he possesses it with great contentment. This is the opposite of what is taught in Christendom today. Riches never bring contentment. Riches bring hurts, and opens you up to every vile thing there is.

Silver Will Not Even Satisfy Those Who Love It

Solomon was a very rich man and yet he spoke that even the lovers of silver cannot be satisfied by it. Neither will your own ambition satisfy you. If you cannot be content poor then you will not be content with millions. If you have more than you can use it is of no use to you. With all your increase the most you can do is look at it. It will not make the lev (heart) content. The sleep of a laboring man is sweet whether he has much or nothing but even the abundance of a rich man will not let him sleep. The deceitfulness of riches destroys one and brings one down. These riches always perish by evil use.

Why Are We Not Satisfied?

We are not satisfied because of our sins. YAHWEH says that we will eat and not be satisfied because of our wicked ways. We have kept our pagan traditions and rituals. YAHWEH says HE will make us desolate and empty.

YAHWEH Has Laid the Course for Our Lives

If we believe that YAHWEH has truly laid the concourse of our lives then we understand that we have no need to worry about anything. We must give HIM thanks for everything in our lives. HE wants us to give HIM acknowledgement. When a man does that he will be satisfied with YAHWEH's contentment. Without this contentment we are empty.
