Chapter 38 - | Psalm 18:2

"The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower." Recited Yeshua to the second verse. "Psalm 18, verse 2," said Jude while he's raising his hand. Yeshua looked at him, smiled, and said, "Yes, indeed, Jude! Thank you," then Jude lowers his hand with a smile while sitting next to me.


Yeshua then roved over us His eyes, then towards the farthest back and said, "Ah! Hello, my dear friends! Please, do join us! Take a seat as well." All of us quickly looked back and saw a whole lot of people standing behind Matthew and Thomas. "Are they all standing there just now or much earlier than now?" Asked Jude while we were still looking and being overwhelmed by the number of people who are now taking crates to sit behind us while some stood still from where they're standing.


"I didn't even notice," I replied to Jude. I can't believe it."Could any one tell me your interpretation of it?" Asked Yeshua, making all of us—His students—look back at Him and focus on Him. "God should be the one who we put our trust in," answered Simon while he's raising his hand. Then we looked at Simon and he continued, "Because God is the only one who can protect us and the one who we can trust with our lives." Yeshua smiled proudly at Simon while looking at him then He shifted His gaze towards each one of us. "Thank you, Simon, for that wonderful interpretation."


"Who among you knows what a buckler is?" Asked Yeshua as He clasped His hands. "A small shield! Used from medieval times!" Said someone from the back, Yeshua smiled and looked at the person who answered. "Thank you for your answer, my friend!" Thanked Yeshua to the person then chuckled, making other people chuckle as well. "That is correct!" Said Yeshua, "a buckler is a shield. My buckler. My shield. God the Father is my shield," continued Yeshua as He took a step towards His right.


"Let the Father be your protector, your foundation in life, your deliverer from your enemies, the strength that you trust your life with," said Yeshua. "Seek for His guidance. Seek for His protection. Seek a relationship with the Father," Yeshua then took two steps towards His left then continued, "Let the Father be your rock, your buckler—your shield—and the horn of your salvation," said Yeshua as He took a step towards His right, "for He is the only one who can and cares," Yeshua then walk towards the side of John and stood there, "He is the only one who overcame the world and the darkness." Yeshua then holds John's shoulder again.


Then Yeshua continued again, "And the darkness and the world tried to make the Father fail but they failed instead. Let the Father be your stronghold that will defend you against the adversary." Yeshua then let go of His hold from John's shoulder and slowly walked back to His original place earlier. "Allow the Father. Allow the Father to help you. Allow the Father to show you how much He loves you," said Yeshua as He roved over His eyes around us.


The place got quiet, making us—His students—look at one another then look back to see the other town's people who began listening unto Him. Then one hand was raised among the crowd, "You said that God 'is the only one who overcame the world and the darkness' but the church said that Jesus was the one who overcame both." Said the one who raised his hand. We all looked back at Yeshua and saw Him smiling before He answered, "The Father and Jesus are One. What He overcame, the Father also overcame and what the Father has overcome, He also overcame," replied Yeshua to the one who spoke.


Is it weird for You to say Your own name in a different language? Yeshua looked at me then smiled softly. The kind of soft smile that you can definitely say that that smile answers "yes" in your question. I sighed. "How is that even possible?" Asked one of the town's people. Yeshua looked at that person then answered, "only the Father can make the impossible possible. The Father and the Son are One for the Son came from the Father," Yeshua then He slowly walks forward and continues, "for the essence of the Father was given to the Son, making both the Father and the Son One."That… that didn't even cross my mind.
