turned away back, (50:4-5). There is an appointed time or season for the Word of God to be fulfilled. The spoken Word is described as a revolving wheel, which creates and makes us a unified whole and at peace even during times of upheaval, turmoil, or unrest. It gives us the assurance and unshakable hope that all is well in spite of discouraging circumstances. The Word of God must be within us; the ever flowing river(s) of living water: saving, healing, and restoring.

The high priest of the Old Covenant was a natural man while the High Priest of the New Testament is Spiritual: the Man Yeshua HaMashiach; Jesus the Christ. Hebrews 5:1-5 reminds us: For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both
