yom schlischi – 7th Iyyar 5773 – Wednesday – self-confidence – humility

 

The motto of of the Moravian congregation (Herrnhut) in Psalm 138.3 encourages me to look for self-confidence:

ביום קראתי ותענני תרהבני בנפשי עז

 

“I called during the day and you answered me. May you give me self-confidence; strength in my soul! ”(self-translation)

 

 

It is not the first time that I refer to Isaiah 11. (October 26, 2012 and November 5, 2012) Nevertheless, I have to have a lot of self-confidence to claim the internal motto in Isaiah 11:10 for myself as the reincarnated Jesus of Nazareth:

 

והיה ביום ההוא שרש ישי אשר עומד לנס עמימ אליו גוים ידרשו והיתה מנחתו כבוד

 

“And it will be that day: A root of Jesse, which stands for peoples, Gentiles want to ask about it, and its resting place will be glory.”

 

 

The self-confidence to be the reincarnated Jesus of Nazareth has faltered due to the lack of the green light for the online operation of my website. (December 27, 2012) At that time I suspected a lack of humility. Yes, it is difficult to reconcile self-confidence and humility, but yet it is imperative.

 

 

The following verse (Isaiah 11:11) strengthens my self-confidence:

 

והיה ביום ההוא יוסיף אדני ידו לקנות את-שאר עמו אשר ישאר מאשור וממצרים ומפתרוס ומכוש ומעילם ומשנער ומחמת ומאיי הים

 

And it will be that day: for the second time, my Lord wants to continue to buy back with his might the rest of His people that He wants to deasband, from Assyria and from Egypt and from Patross and from Kush and from Eilam and from Shin’ar and out Chamat and from the islands of the sea.

 

 

A second great work of God is imminent, as in the life of Jesus of Nazareth. My self-confidence is strengthened by thinking of the second morning star, June 2, 2009 (accountability report after the apprenticeship “3.11). I am also reminded of the two anointed in Zechariah 4: 11-14: “

 

 

Zechariah 4:11-14 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
11 Then I said to him, “What are these two olive trees on the right of the lampstand and on its left?” 12 And I answered the second time and said to him, “What are the two olive [a]branches which are beside the two golden pipes, which empty the golden oil from themselves?” 13 So he answered me, saying, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.” 14 Then he said, “These are the two [b]anointed ones who are standing by the Lord of the whole earth.”

I relate the double apparitions humbly to Jesus of Nazareth and self-confidently to me as his reincarnation.
