As I read through this Parashas
This Torah Portion is the 24th portion in the
yearly Torah Cycle, it begins with the Word “Vayikra El Moshe,” and Yahveh “יהוה” called to Moses and he responded. How was this voice spoken?
Does it really matter? Moses was called and he responded. How much of us would
respond as Moses did?
Every time Moses is called it is when a new command or a
new project a new principle was to be established.
The last chapter in Exodus relates that the Corporate
Tabernacle had been built and became a fitting-resting place for the Shechinah
Glory, EL YAHVEH’S Presence, and for the sacrifice service.
Vayikra, the first chapter in the Book of Leviticus,
includes a discussion of the Korbanot (Sacrifices). Because we have no
Tabernacle or temple and animal sacrifice is done away with since the Sacrifice
of Yahushua at Calvery it is difficult for
a lot of believers to relate to this concept. What it I may appear that
this sacrifices involved cruelty to animals, the Kabbalist explain that the
animals actually relates to the human selfish ego.
The root of the word korban, which can be translated as
“sacrifice” or “offering,”
Actually means to
come near, and so the offering of our selfish is seen as the way to draw near
to יהוה.
Indeed, the Zohar says that the
offering we made in order to draw near to the Holy One, so that they would form
a perfect unity and ultimately awaken our consciousness.
Today, many of our sacrifice are internal; we sacrifice
whenever we face and overcome obstacles or difficulties on behalf of others. By
reading this Parasha gives us the energy to make the sacrifice that are
required of us every day in order to increase our proximity to the Light.
So awesome was the Shechinah of EL YAHVEH, when it covers
the Tabernacle that not even Moses could enter it. In the following verse, we
hear EL YAHVEH calling Moses to enter the Tent of Meeting; Assuring Moses that
the Tabernacle was built for the benefit of the people.
When EL YAHVEH called Moses, it was exclusively to Moses
alone. EL YAHVEH’S Voice is powerful enough to shatter the cedars of Lebanon,
and be heard throughout the world, but He called Moses by name. EL YAHVEH’S
Word was spoken for all to hear, it was the people who were not worthy of hearing
it.
This Sabbath of Vayikra gives us the opportunity to be
the Vayikra El Moses, the one who hears the call of ABBA YAHVEH. We must have
the Spirit of Wisdom and Understanding to recognize the Calling of ABBA YAHVEH,
for us alone.
Our perception of our lives are exactly how our lives will be.
Every day, we experience scores of situations, some important, some not so
important, some pleasing some not so pleasing. How do we evaluate our spiritual
significant?
How we choose to perceive the various circumstances of
our lives, those moments we could view each messages as coincidences or
annoyances, we can either accept them as light from the CREATOR or denied them
as spiritual lessons.
I can view the key I could not find, which was right in
front of me as the CREATOR preventing me from meeting in a accident, if I had
leave two minute earlier, or a means of practicing patience.
