Union with אלוהים
Love is as strong as death;
its jealousy unyielding as the grave.
Love’s flames are vehement flames of fire,
the very flame of Yah.
Many waters cannot quench love;
rivers cannot sweep it away.
Intimacy with a Holy God
One woman’s journey of walking with a kind God Who burns with ardent flames of love.
I Am Prayer
״ואני תפילה״ Psalm 109:4 “I Am Prayer”
In Psalm 109:4 King David declares before the Lord “I am prayer.” Most English translations record David saying, “I give myself to prayer.” However, in Hebrew it simply says “I”, “״ואני, and then “prayer”, “תפילה”, written as a noun. “Give myself to” is omitted in the Hebrew reading.
In this Hebrew structure David could have just as easily written, I am king or I am a child of God. David was feeling the pains of being hated by his friends, and then David strangely states, “I am prayer.”
What does that even mean that you “are” prayer? That doesn’t even make sense! Prayer is an activity. It is something that you do. Right? However…

DWELL WITH GOD
Abba, reveal the desires of Your heart to draw Your people into Your chambers. Make us like the sons of Issachar who knew the times and seasons of Israel.
ISAIAH 26:20, “Come, my people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourself, as it were, for a little moment, until the indignation is past.”
Insight Into Israel:
Since COVID-19 began, twice Israel has been on a month long full lockdown and in the other 6 months restrictions have been in place. Schools are closed. “COVID Hotels” are housing those who have been exposed to the disease.
Masks are worn to cover our faces on penalty of a hefty fine. Gatherings over 10 or 20 have been forbidden. Families were forbidden to travel to be together during the high holidays.
