Dr Hollisa Alewine – Footsteps of Messiah Part 37 – (Shoftim-Shaking Principalities and Powers Part 1)
Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist on the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. (Ep 6:11-13)
How did Jacob “win” the wrestling match with the angel? They weren’t exactly doing jiu jitsu all night! Paul’s letter to the Ephesians describes how righteous human beings fight situations that appear to be beyond their ability or control: stand fully and confidently in your salvation.
In the passage of beautiful blessings uttered by the sorcerer Balaam, we have another clue as to how Israel overcomes and appears: “How lovely are your tents, O Jacob, your tabernacles, Israel…”
In this same passage, “For there is no divination in Jacob” (Nu 23:23) is followed by the verse: “Behold! The people will arise like a lion cub and raise itself like a lion; it will not lie down until it consumes its prey and drinks the blood of the slain.”
The ultimate battle of the ages is won by warriors who are not using “divination” for the fight. When they operate in their appointed realm and calling, when they “stand,” they fight like lions!

This week is the Torah portion Ekev, which is extensive, yet simplifies our walk with Yeshua. Want your enemies to flee? Just do this, the simple words from the Ancient of Days:
“Lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul, and you shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall teach them to your children, talking of them when you are sitting in your house, and when you are walking by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates, that your days and the days of your children may be multiplied in the land that the Lord swore to your fathers to give them, as long as the heavens are above the earth.” (Dt 11:18-21)

DR HOLLISA ALEWINE – KI TISA (The Melted Darlings)
This week’s portion is Ki Tisa, “when you elevate.” It is nested among similar Torah portions that when strung together, inform readers that within their verses are found prophecies of resurrection. In Ki Tisa, there was judgment, the sin was forgiven, the silver was melted down to become receptacles for the beams or “pillars,” and the Cloud could once again dwell among the Darling Israel. The Shema, the Golden Rule, and the melted Darlings of the Tabernacle combine to explain the Cloud gathering of resurrection. Join us as we explore how this is all connected.
