This here map will aid in your personal studies.

It is an amazing map because it  shows not only Ham’s Territory (Egypt and all to the left),
but also Shem’s Territory ( judah, israel, mesopotamia and everything in the middle,
and Japheth’s Territory (Greece and everything to the right of Syria Assyria [North mesopotamia] and Babylon [South mesopotamia]

When reading about Israel’s issues with Babylon and Assyria, I discovered that these were all cousins – born from two different sons of Shem

Take note that Abram was originally from Ur, which is a city near Babylon. It was God who moved Abram from Ur of the Chaldeans to what was then Territory controlled by Philistines and Canaanites. Sons of Ham overlapped onto Shem’s  assigned territory.

Thus, this land was given to Abram  whose name was  later changed by God to Abra(ha)m because God made him a promise that he would become a father and blessing in his old age.

Now, I put the changed part of Abra(ha)m’s name in parentheses  for 2 reasons.

1. To show the change in name that God gave Abram  and

2. So I have the Israel Bible which uses the actual Hebrew  names and I am slowly beginning to add it to my studies to add more depth to what I am learning and…

… something  stood out to me when I first opened it but I didn’t dig into to question why and gain understanding. 

…yet. As I wrote ✍️  the above, I found that the same thing I noticed before took shape for me again, which I will at some point dig into.

What stood out to me is this…

It was something I saw in my Israel Bible in Genesis 1:1, which gives the Hebrew writing, which I am familiar with because of my Hebrew classes. When they translated  it, the transliteration used Hashem instead of saying God.

Now, when I first saw it
I saw it
I mentally noted it
But I wasn’t yet moved to look into it.

A few minutes ago
My mental note of what I saw resurfaced as I wrote Abram’s new name given to him by God like this

Abra(ha)m

…and my spirit leaped,
…and my whole purpose for this post changed. Lol

You see I know that
1. Abra(ha)m is from the lineage of Shem.
2. Abra(ha)m didn’t begin to produce children until God spoke such to him and put the (ha) in his name.

Oowee Catch.

I also note that initially Sarai didn’t believe and so she gave her husband Hagar whom became impregnated by Abra(ha)m and gave birth to Ishmael.

Let me tell you…
(As I fight to contain this shout)
…that as you begin to BELIEVE God
That activated FAITH begins to produce.

Abra(ha)m was given a child
Ishmael was a token of the promise

But the promise was to come thru Sara(h)

I am noticing her name change  and the slight difference in spelling.

I am seeing the letter  Hey  ה. and let me tell you, Sara(h) definitely  did get some Revelation Light when Hagar got pregnant.

You see back then they didn’t have fertility testing like they have now.

So, who knew whether the problem was with Abram or Sarai.

But babay …
… when Abram believed God
and received what God said
and began to tell people

“My name is Abra(ha)m”
!!!

Ooweee

Power flowed.

Now do this

Open your mouth and say “ha”

Take note of the breath

God breathed life into Abra(ha)m who received that breath

And babay …

He didn’t just have Ishmael (the token)
But he also received Isaac (the promise)

And then later had six other sons, one of which was inlaws to Moses. ( Midian)

Don’t you want some of that activated power of God flowing in, through, and around you?

The blessings  of Abra(ha)m is yours if you take it

It has definitely  been handed to you, me, and everyone living.

Listen you can have it like Abra(ha)m had it.

How?

First, I’m going to show you how
Then, I’m going to show you where
And that’s where I will end this post because it  became something I was not expecting  lol.

So here we go:

#1. Place your open hand, palm facing you, closely in front of your face. Now speak. Say anything. Say whatever you want, and feel the bursts of breath hitting your palm.

Now check this out…

So, that activated breath comes out in the form of words spoken – just like in the opening chapter of Genesis where God spoke, and things came to be.

#2. To experience the activated power of God’s breath spoken in, through, and all over you, you have to open, hear, read, believe, and speak God’s word.

The word of God is God-breathed. So when you hear it – through listening or reading it, and when you receive it and speak it, and when you breath it because  you believe it; then, the Word of God becomes active in you creating, forming, and subsequently  preparing to birth something amazing in you that you hadn’t seen, heard, or thought of to ask for.

Great things God has for those who dare to receive and believe.

“Whosoever believes,” God said.

This is so beautiful
And I had no intention  to go this far.

I just wanted  to share with you this amazing map I saw this morning as I prepared to share something else as I considered what Gabriel spoke to Daniel.

But listen
None of this is about me.

The Lord has the platform
And I am privileged to sit, to hear, and to write what I hear.

Lord,
Have your  way.

How about this…

I’m not allowed to end this just yet… lol and here is why.

Answer this question for me …

Is it the blessing of Abraham  or the blessings of Abraham?

Father revealed to me several things to show me that many do not know the answer to this.

How would you answer?

I saw a lot online about stuff and favor.

What I was reminded of was this.

People had their hand out.

They wanted things.

So we have been and are still being trained to see things as being the gift.

We are being trained to have our hand out for something.

The holidays just passed, and some due to unforeseen  circumstances felt depressed because they couldn’t give  things.

That depression would not have manifested except that we have an incorrect view of the blessing, as did 4500 of the 5000 who left after eating.

The things are good, but the blessing is better.

The blessing of Abra(ha)m is found in his name.

The blessing of Abra(ha)m is that God breathed on him. Ha!

When God breathed  on Abra(ha)m, it was then that he produced fruit.

GOD breathed upon a virgin, and she became pregnant with a child.

The blessing is not the things received or promised.  The blessing is the ONE who gives.
