Message 157

The Hebrew word is nâʻîym נעים (naw-eem'). It's definitions are “delightful, agreeable”. Commonly translated as “pleasure(s)”, we understand that as with all things Kingdom Yahweh, it has to do with thoughts that produce “states of mind”, if you will.

Though the narrow (“hedge, protect”; refined) path (mind “roads”, streams, valleys, etc...”) is a call to all of Yahweh's children (“builders”), the gifts each individual has received leaves unique perspectives of said path. And so there is a camaraderie in the core understandings of Yahweh's Mind patterns (Laws) though again, different experiences within those understandings all leading to one unified end --- mental salvation! The 144,000 perceive that part and parcel of a life (mind active) lived for Yahweh means reckoning with the often utilized sayings of those unwilling to go (mentally walk) the narrow path: “I'm just not ready for that!”, or even worse, “Its all about love man!”, while unable to recite even a few of the sixteen pillars of love (I Corinthians 13:4-8)

Yahweh is Creator of all and “all” means even the will that would oppose everything He is; the fallen personal conscience and it's will. Do not be surprised that when it comes to the personal will's carnal cries, like, “Well I won't be able to do ___________ anymore if I go Yahweh's way”, that Yahweh has an answer. That when Yahweh speaks of His “pleasure (Mind's delight)”, it comes with an understanding that such a mental state can NEVER be accessed via any decision made apart from His patterned ways of thinking (Laws)! There is no true pleasure in the minds of the wicked! Only false perceptions that always have an end date! The 144,000 leave behind the head games with each mental reckoning, settling matters quickly within. For they know the days are short.
