6. Your mentor (Yeshua) has made an effective way to listen to his Word to you. Use it!

Mentoring Young (@heart) Men [part 6 of 21 (or 321)]

So listen thoughtfully to obey thoughtfully, with the help of God's spirit, in order to hear God's word in his world and his scriptures on his NEW COVENANT WAY; God's NEW and LIVING WAY; His word on Jesus* (Yeshua), spoken from heaven several times in history, & THOUGHTFULLY HEAR & OBEY IT!

So listen to him,

his whole life and death,

(especially what's dim!)

from his words and breath!

So, if you have ears

or eyes, from Yahweh,

then listen to hear

some more while this day

is called now "today",

and when you lie down

then trust him to sway

you, though you may drown!

And his words as well

must be attended -

allow them to dwell

in you, till mended

you wake from your "sleep"

(which might have been "death")

and walk, and will speak,

with his life, and breath,

who is the spirit

of the Holy God;

Yeshua could hear it,

Yeshua gave nod!

-  even when anti

all his de-si-re;

Father's words grant he

could choose what's higher!

*  Then from the cloud came a voice that said, “This is my Son, my Chosen; listen to him!”. Luke 9:35 NRSV

For we did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of his majesty. For he received honor and glory from God the Father when that voice was conveyed to him by the Majestic Glory, saying, “This is my Son, my Beloved, with whom I am well pleased.” We ourselves heard this voice come from heaven, while we were with him on the holy mountain.  So we have the prophetic message more fully confirmed. You will do well to be attentive to this as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts. First of all you must understand this, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation, because no prophecy ever came by human will, but men and women moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.  2 Peter 1:16‭-‬21 NRSV-CI

5. Learn to listen deeply to your own Rabi/Mentor

Mentoring Young (@heart) Men [part 5 of 21 (or 321)]

Learn to SHEMA* his word to you through his world, and his scriptures, on every matter, not thoughtlessly, or blindly, but humbly and determined to try to understand, to gain wisdom, and insight. Listen to his questions of you, and respond fully.

* SHEMA(Hebrew)= Listen. See  SHEMA video online, or download.

° "Learn what I teach you, my child, and never forget what I tell you to do. Listen to what is wise and try to understand it. Yes, beg for knowledge; plead for insight. Look for it as hard as you would for silver or some hidden treasure. If you do, you will know what it means to fear the Lord and you will succeed in learning about God. Proverbs 2:1‭-‬5 GNTD

Then the three disciples saw Elijah and Moses talking with Jesus. Peter spoke up and said to Jesus, “Teacher, how good it is that we are here! We will make three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” He and the others were so frightened that he did not know what to say. Then a cloud appeared and covered them with its shadow, and a voice came from the cloud, “This is my own dear Son—listen to him!” They took a quick look around but did not see anyone else; only Jesus was with them. Mark 9:4‭-‬8 GNTDThey obeyed his order, but among themselves they started discussing the matter, “What does this ‘rising from death’ mean?” And they asked Jesus, “Why do the teachers of the Law say that Elijah has to come first?” His answer was, “Elijah is indeed coming first in order to get everything ready. Yet why do the Scriptures say that the Son of Man will suffer much and be rejected? I tell you, however, that Elijah has already come and that people treated him just as they pleased, as the Scriptures say about him.” Mark 9:10‭-‬13 GNTD
