TORAH and GLORY SCHOOL
Introduction
Welcome
Bless the Land Education Ministry
Torah and Glory School
Introduction
"But an hour is coming, and now is, when true worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit [Ruach] and Truth [Emet]; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers. God is Spirit, and those [Israel of YHVH] that worship Him must worship in Spirit and Truth" (John 4:23-24).
The Torah and Glory School is designed to assist followers of Messiah Yeshua--through study, prayer, and worship disciplines--to return to and mature in the knowledge and experience of the kingdom, power, and glory of the Elohim of Israel. Goals for our students include: A. Develop a vision for the restoration and reconciliation of the whole House of Israel. B. Grow in foundational knowledge of the Torah. C. Recover the principles, practice, and Holy Spirit power of the early, first-century Nazarene believers.
The one-year course is based upon the yearly Torah reading cycle. The weekly lessons are particularly planned to help those who desire (1) to be instructed/led directly in parsha study, in prayer, and in praise and worship by the Holy Spirit, and (2) to hear, discern, and respond appropriately to His word/voice in whatever form it may take. We are living in the exciting hour of the restoration of Ruach and Emet to all Israel. It is therefore very important for believers to develop not only their knowledge, but their spiritual senses (see Hebrews 5:14) in order to know the voice and word of the Almighty personally. It is the opportune/kairos time to become exercised in Emet and Ruach, and thereby participate more effectually (and joyfully) in the fulfillment of restoration and reconciliation prophecies that are now unfolding. Hence, our education and experience emphasis at Torah and Glory School is with both the Emet and Ruach. Because of this, you will find in the year-long Torah reading course a continual stress with reminders on the importance of hearing and being consciously led by the Ruach HaKodesh. "For all who are led by the Spirit [who have come to be regularly, consistently, habitually yielded], these are the [mature, most effectual] sons of God"(Rom. 8:14). Keep in mind, the Ruach HaKodesh is intended to be the primary Teacher of our parsha commentary course, and Administrator of the school.
The school's parsha course consists of five sections, or parts. They are the five books of the Torah: Part 1: Genesis/B'resheet; Part 2: Exodus/Shemot; Part 3: Leviticus/Vayiqra; Part 4: Numbers/Bamidbar; and Part 5: Deuteronomy/Devarim.
We encourage you to enroll:
Invest one year of your life in to spiritual transformation!
Enrollment: The Torah and Glory School offers two levels of association:
(1) Reader [audit] level. The lessons are available for use to everyone. (2) Student [talmidim] level. These people formally enroll in the school, commit to the program, and invest one year of their lives into intense spiritual growth and transformation. Below we state the (A) requirements and (B) benefits of enrollment in the Torah and Glory School. Note: Enrollment is possible at any time during the parsha's yearly cycle
.
A. Requirements for enrollment:
1. There is a tuition fee of $30 for each of the five parts of the parsha course. Thus, the full year's tuition cost is $150.
2. Enrollment can be paid for one of the five sections at a time, of for the entire year.
3. Enrollment is completed by simply paying the tuition fee through our PayPal connection. When that is done, we are notified of your name and address. Be sure to include your email address also so we can notify you.
4. Enrolled students are required to write answers to all the questions in each lesson, and submit them to our office, blesstheland@live.com , in a timely fashion for review and credit.
5. We highly recommend, during the first few weeks, that students take time and re-read the directions that begin sections two and three, to be reminded of their purpose and importance.
B. Advantages of enrollment:
1. Enrollment helps people identify with a project, and thereby serves as a means of motivation. Enrollment is beneficial because it tends (noticeably) to strengthen commitment and perseverance.
2. Enrollment establishes a healthy degree of mutual accountability. As the students/talmidim honor their obligations, the school is able to respond by examining answers, offering instruction or recommendations, and responding to written questions or comments.
3. A certificate will be awarded for each of the five sections a student successfully completes. These can be mailed out, or handed out at a ceremony at the end of the year.
4. A diploma will be awarded to the students who complete, as required, the entire parsha year; all five parts: Genesis, exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy.
5. A graduation ceremony will be held (possibly at a regional MIA conference) at the end of the Torah reading cycle for all who have earned certificates and diplomas.
6. A prophetic presbytery will be held at the graduation for all the enrolled students. The people on the presbytery will be of good reputation and exercised in the gift of prophesy. It will be a time of exhortation, edification, and impartation.
7. While enrolled students have access to the school's lessons via Messianic Israel Alliance and Bless the Land websites, we will email by attachment the lessons directly to them. This will make for early access and greater ease of copying for reading and placement in a notebook.
8. Enrolled students will receive supplemental training on singing the Song of the Lord in preparation for joining together on a tour of Israel to sing blessings and prophetic songs from the hills over the land. [This goal is in planning the planning stage.]
Table Class
We encourage readers and students to meet together in small groups to fellowship, worship and study around a table. At the class table there is room for three necessary components that will combine to provide complete success to our education experience: 1. Zealous, spiritually hungry disciples around the table. 2. The Torah (Bible) on the table. 3. And the glory Cloud above the table. May the same tangible anointing that comes and rests upon us when we worship also be strongly in our midst, in a manifest and noticeable manner, when we are at the table and sharing the Word.
Conclusion
Our Torah and Glory School course/program, if faithfully followed, will prove to be a roadway of spiritual restoration and renewal. It is designed for the fervent disciples of Yeshua, those who want to receive all they possibly can of His kingdom, power, glory, and fellowship this side of heaven. It is a help for those who want to participate with Him in the re-gathering and reconciliation of all the people of Israel. Effort will be necessary. But to the zealous He says, "...you shall seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart" (Jer. 29:13)
.
Therefore, persevere in your one-year undertaking. Remain resolved in your holy crusade toward greater revelation, personal transformation, and intimacy with Yeshua through the communion of the Holy Spirit. Press forward to recapture the heritage of Israel, the Torah and Glory of YHVH. You will be blessed in manifold ways during the journey, and at the end, changed. To this you are called. For this you are sanctified. In this you are favored. Because of this you will be rewarded
.
You will find Him this year in a new and wonderful way.
It's a day of new beginnings.
Shalom
