^{What is this Treasure that is sought after so much, that one would go to any length to have, and try anything to possess it?}

^{You know what I�m talking about, you�ve seen it. All the money could not buy it. The drugs could not fly you high enough to reach it. The rock & roll or country soul could not serenade it to you. The harder you tried to posses it, the farther away it seemed to be. Some went as far as to try death in hopes to Rest in it; only to find torment they could not flee.}

^{What is this treasure that you seek?}

^{It is Peace. Everyone wants Shalom in there lives.}

^{Shalom - (Peace) - tranquility, safety, well-being, welfare, health, contentment, success, comfort, wholeness and integrity.}

^{When you understand shalom then you can posses shalom.}

^{Let�s look into the word peace in the Hebrew for a better understanding.}

^oooo           

^{Shalom - ooo mwlv � Remember Hebrew is read right to left and each letter has a different meaning or combination of meanings.}

^{The first letter is Shin v pronounced (Sheen) the Shin represents a tooth, it means to destroy.}

^{The next letter is Lamed l. It can mean to control, authority and the tongue.}

^{Why do we use the tongue as a meaning of Lamed?} 

^{The tongue �controls� people, it�s manipulative, and it can be deadly. That�s why scripture says �The tongue has power over life and death; those who indulge it must eat its fruits.� Proverbs 18: 21}

^{Now from these two Hebrew letters; there is destroy, authority and control.}

^{The third letter is Vav w. Its meanings are to secure or nail. It means to secure something, establish something, bring something together or join something.}

^{The last letter is Mem m. Mem can mean mighty, big, large and massive.}

^{Now we understand Shalom means to destroy the very thing the authority that is in control that is establishing the massive chaos in your life.}

^{Destroy What?}

^{To get Shalom you need to get the root of the chaos out. Get out the authority that is establishing the chaos in your life. That is how we get peace, any other way you�re just applying band-aids, you are anesthetizing and numbing it for a time only for it to come back stronger.}

^{We need to search our selves. Not blaming this chaos on others or circumstances in our lives. We must find the massive root that feeds this chaos. Where did it get life? How does it get its energy?}  

^{The biggest, nastiest chaos that has ever taken root is not giving authority to Yahveh. When this is done the flesh takes control, establishing its own mighty authority and it will destroy you.}

^{It will turn to money, alcohol, drugs, sex, and violence any thing it can to numb the chaos even suicide.}

^{To those who seek glory, honor, and immortality by perseverance in doing good, He (Yahveh) will pay back eternal life. But to those who are self-seeking, who disobey the truth and obey evil, he will pay back with wrath and anger. Yes, he will pay back misery and anguish to every human being who does evil, to the Jew first, then to the Gentile; but glory and honor and shalom to everyone who keeps doing what is good, to the Jew first, then to the Gentile. Romans 2:7-10}

^{Therefore, do not let sin rule in your mortal bodies, so that it makes you obey its desires; and do not offer any part of yourselves to sin as an instrument for wickedness. On the contrary, offer yourselves to Yahveh as people alive from the dead, and your various parts to Yahveh as instruments for righteousness.  Romans 6:12-13}

^{Giving authority to Yahveh will establish control over the massive chaos and destroy it. Then and only then can we posses Shalom.}

^{Yahveh made this treasure.}

Don�t worry about anything; on the contrary, make your requests known to Yahveh by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving. Then God�s shalom, passing all understanding, will keep your hearts and minds safe in union with the Messiah Yeshua. ^{Philippians 4:6-7}

Yeshua gave this treasure.

He said �What I am leaving you is shalom � I am giving you my shalom. I don�t give the way the world gives. Don�t let yourselves be upset or frightened�. ^{John 14:27}

^{And let the shalom which comes from the Messiah be your heart�s decision maker, for this is why you were called to be part of the Body. Colossians 3:15}

 ^{Now may the Lord of shalom himself give you shalom always in all ways. 2 Thessalonians 3:16}

Rauch Kodesh wants us to continue in this treasure.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility, self control. ^{Galatians 5:22}

^{For �Whoever wants to love live and see good days must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit, turn from evil and do good, seek peace and chase after it. 1Peter 3:10-11}

^{The Shalom of Yahveh has already been ordained for your life.}

^{May grace and shalom be yours in full measure, as you come to a full knowledge of God and Yeshua our Lord. 2Peter 1:2}

^{In His Love  Michael Jackson}
