This article is called the “Virgin of Israel – Yehovah’s Servants” not the “Virgins of Israel – Yehovah’s Servants” Why? It all has to do with who “Israel” actually is. Yehovah told Moses to tell Pharaoh,
Then you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says Yehovah: “Israel is My son, My first-born. So I say to you, let My son go that he may serve Me.” (Exo 4:22-23)
Israel’s seed [beni Israel], the spiritually born Ezrach and heir of Yehovah, IS Yehovah’s son; and they are the virgin of Israel who do not served any other master. And THAT is the good news of the kingdom and what my “Becoming as One Born in the Land” series of teaching is all about. It is the story of how a Gentile man becomes a son and heir, the Ezrach seed, of the creator of all things. And how Yehovah is even now raising up His seed from all the places that He has scattered them.
There is no plural form of Ezrach, and “they” are the plural “he,” Yehovah’s son, His firstborn, and they are the “male-child” who so many confuse as the NT man called Yeshua. “They” are the prophet like Moses who will deliver His people the second time.
“Therefore behold, the days are coming,” says Yehovah, “that it shall no more be said, ‘Yehovah lives who brought up Israel’s seed from the land of Egypt,’ but, ‘Yehovah lives who brought up Israel’s seed from the land of the north and from all the lands where He had driven them.’ For I will bring them back into their land which I gave to their fathers. (Jer 16:14-15)
This spiritually born “male-child” of Yehovah is, as we will see in this series, the virgin, Israel, who will feed the “woman” in the wilderness.
This “Virgin of Israel” presentation was originally created in a video format; but it was so contaminated by ideas that had no foundation in Yehovah’s words given through Moses and His other prophets that I just had to retire it. Renewing our minds, and especially our actions to only Yehovah’s words, is very difficult in light of what we have all previously learned and accepted as truth. Getting the man out of Egypt is always easier than getting Egypt out of the man.
Virgin of Israel – Yehovah’s Servants
Concerning the virgin of Israel Yehovah says,
For as a young man marries [בעל, ba’al] a virgin [betulah], So You shall marry [יבעלוך, ba’al] Your sons; and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God [Elohim] rejoice over you. (Isa 62:5)
This is the third series of four groups of series designed to set the record straight concerning how a man is “born again” and why that “Process of becoming as One Born in the Land” is so important in these last days. Here is a link to two previous teachings.
For many who have learned nothing more than the doctrines and traditions of men taught in the NT, the picture above is their pitiful understanding of what the coming last days will be similar to. “Yeshua coming in the cloud” and gathering “the dead in Christ” to himself and leaving the “wicked” (who really knows how that is defined in their minds) to perish on the earth.
“Oh, Â Â my, Â Â Â Elohim! – How could they be any further from the truth? Have they never learned that the righteous remain on the earth and the wicked are the ones who are taken from it?” Noah stayed, everyone else left!
For the upright will dwell in the land, and the blameless will remain in it; but the wicked [those who do the things they shouldn’t] will be cut off from the earth, and the unfaithful [those who do not do the things they should] will be uprooted from it. Pro 2:21-22
The righteous will never be removed, but the wicked will not inhabit the earth. Pro 10:30
“Do they fail to understand that it is You, Yehovah, that is coming in a cloud from the heavens at the end of the tribulation, not any male-child, son of man, Messiah, and especially not Yeshua?! It is the great day of Yehovah, not the great day of Yeshua! And You always appear in a cloud.”
And it came to pass, when Moses entered the tabernacle, that the pillar of cloud descended and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and Yehovah talked with Moses. All the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the tabernacle door, and all the people rose and worshiped, each man (eesh) in his tent door. So Yehovah spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. (Exo 33:9-11)
Yehovah reigns; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad! Clouds and darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. A fire goes before Him, and burns up His enemies round about. His lightnings light the world; the earth sees and trembles. The mountains melt like wax at the presence of Yehovah, at the presence of Yehovah of the whole earth. (Psa 97:1-5)
Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; for the day of Yehovah is coming, for it is at hand: a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness, like the morning clouds spread over the mountains. A people come, great and strong, the like of whom has never been; nor will there ever be any such after them, even for many successive generations. (Joe 2:1-2)
“And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: blood and fire and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of Yehovah. And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of Yehovah shall be saved. (Joe 2:30-32)
Right now Yehovah is looking for just a few upright and righteous men who will leave the kingdom of their birth, become wholly His servants (they do not serve any other lawmakers or judges) and then, at Passover, become as one born in the land, Yehovah’s spiritually born male-child, His Ezrach. They are the people coming in Joel 2Â who are great and strong.
Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting Elohim, Yehovah, the Creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the weak [that’s me], and to those who have no might He increases strength. … Those who wait on Yehovah shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. (Isa 40:28-31)
Yet Yehovah, through His prophets, does not number this select group of men who are now rising up and coming into covenant with Him in theses last days; they are simply spoken of as His banners, His servants, the good shepherds and more. So for the sake of helping people understand what to expect in the future I use this 144,000 number from Revelation.
My hunch is that we are not waiting on Yehovah to begin the last days, he is waiting for us (men) to step up and come into covenant with Him. You, any man, can become one of the great men in Yehovah’s kingdom. Yehovah says,
My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and on every high hill; yes, My flock was scattered over the whole face of the earth, and no one was seeking or searching for them.” (Eze 34:6)
While I am seeking for Israel’s lost sheep and I need your help finding them. But before you can begin looking, you must first become one of Yehovah’s Ezrach seed.
Compared to the current population of the world, a 144,000 men is just a drop in the bucket. But Yehovah is even now drawing His son, Israel, from many waters; OK, it is a very big bucket. 😉
“He sent from above, He took me, He drew me out of many waters. He delivered me from my strong enemy, from those who hated me; for they were too strong for me. (2Sa 22:17-18)
In the next part we will look at what some of the characteristics of these called-out and set apart men are.
Go to part 2 – His saints, His kind
Go to part 3 – A Virgin Daughter of Babylon
Go to Part 4 – A Woman of Worth Will Live
Go to Part 5 – Not Defiled With Woman
Go to Part 6 – Redeemed From Among Men
Go to Part 7 – Shalach - Yehovah’s Sent One
Go to Part 8 – The Mighty Ones
if you do not know Who I AM, then you CANNOT know who you are (identity) and what I have called you to do (mandate) !
This was an excellent message, thank you Michael.
Thanks Colleen and Steph! I am actually in the process of reworking this lesson and hope to have it finished and posted to the same link in the next couple days.
It’s very good teaching …
Can I have Yehovah as my head? I was married to my husband for close to 10yrs and have three young children. I have come into covenent with my Heveanly Father so I was rejected by my husband because he wanted me to go back to the way I used to be. So now I live with my children but without a head. So back to my first question can I have Yehovah as my head.
Also another question, I dont understand what you mean by not being in the city when we partake in passover. I will be partaking in passover in a restaurant that is hired out for our group so we can do the rituals in privacy. Thank you for your teaching, it has been very informative.
Oh Rebecca – I am sooo sorry to hear that you were rejected by you man for following Yehovah. This idea that a woman is to follow Yehovah instead of her man is a false image that has destroyed many marriages. A woman’s job is NOT to follow Yehovah; her job is to follow her man. We forget what Yehovah told the woman (chavvah, a.k.a. Eve) when he finally did talk with her. He said, “your desire shall be for your man and HE shall rule over you”; not Yehovah. The Proverbs 31 woman is described as a “woman of value.”
A woman’s master is always her man. She is bone of his bone and flesh of his flesh; and the flesh of a man must always goes where the head tells it. I can see why both your master and you were frustrated. Please, please, please – read the following blogs. I have worked very hard to save marriages and to prevent children from being made fatherless. We live is wicked times and have filled our hearts and minds with ideas that do not conform to Yehovah’s will for men and their women.
A woman can only encourage her man to follow Yehovah, but that “encouragement” is more done by her laying down her life in service to her man, than by words; and it her example that speaks loudest to him. But the man who will not follow Yehovah’s ways, in the end, will be taken from a “woman of value” and leave her free to be joined with a righteous man, just like Nabal was taken from Abigail and she was left free to become a righteous man’s woman.
Here is a list of blogs that I have written which I believe will help you and all woman who have similar situations.

I think that it is interesting that you should be talking about you having a covenant with Yehovah and asking about Passover in the same comment here. No woman can have a covenant with Yehovah and no woman is covered by Him either.
Passover is the one time each year that a ger (a man) can ENTER into covenant with Yehovah each year and becomes His son, an ezrach; and Passover is the one time each year that an ezrach (also a man) can RENEW his covenant with his Father each year. A woman becomes a daughter of Yehovah through her relationship with her man. Trouble is, few people have ever even heard of either the ger or the ezrach.
The ger and the ezrach

Ladies are not required to come to Passover, men are!
The “Passover” you are describing in the restaurant is not a Passover at all; it is a Jewish Seder and has no foundation in Torah.
Yehovah’s Passover is for all generations, an everlasting “covenant“. Here is a description of a real Passover.

Well, I am sure I have said some things that may have been a bit hard to hear. But please know that my desire is to see your marriage healed and his children with their father. And I want to see you become the “woman of value” that Yehovah meant you to be.
Please feel free to give me a call (after you have read what I have suggested) if I can be of further assistance.

Thanks for inviting me into the World of our LORD
Hi again Michael,
Here I have a question as well regarding your response to the woman above.
I do not deny there is a set hierarchy, or order, of things by YHWH. However in regard to keeping the feasts themselves, just 2 verses before your notation of Deuteronomy 16:16-17, Deuteronomy 16:13-14 says “Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that thou hast gathered in thy corn and thy wine: And thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite, the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates.” Before that in Deut 16:11 says – “And thou shalt rejoice before the LORD thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite that is within thy gates, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are among you *in the place which the LORD thy God hath chosen to place his name there*. ”
Does this not indicate all peoples were to celebrate the feast if they lived with them, to celebrate it at the location YHWH had put His name? After reading the rest of Deuteronomy 16, does it not appear that the only-men instances of being called 3 times during these feasts is for the purpose of participating in the sacrificing of the gifts to be offered to YHWH for their families, hence is stated the need to not come emptyhanded? Clearly this is a separate more exclusive occassion from the general goings-ons of the feast?
Looking forward to your thoughts, thanks!
There are many places in Deuteronomy that does not agree with the rest of Torah. Deuteronomy 16:11 and 14 are to of many perversions that I have found. Here is an article I put together on that subject. Perversions In Deuteronomy
