Tsiyon Beginnings #80
Posted by TsiyonJul 13
You’ve been telling Dawn you want to know more about the origins of Tsiyon (i.e. my testimony) and in this program she get’s me to spill the beans! Can you believe it, she actually starts with my childhood! At my age I almost forgot I ever had a childhood, until she asked me the question. From there she draws out the story of my life leading up to and including my own personal “burning bush” encounter with YHWH that has shaped the direction of my life for the last quarter century. This program includes some uncomfortably personal stuff that will not only give you insight into what makes Eliyahu ben David tick, but more importantly (and the reason I was willing to get into this), you will get a look at the world around us and even into the heart of God in a way you probably have never seen either before. I found this to be the perfect launching point to explain exactly where redeemed Israel is at today, where we need to get to, how to begin, and exactly why we must make the trip. I’m warning you to be prepared, the woman really started to tap into my radical self! One other thing - if you don’t hear the whole hour you’ve missed the most important part of the program.

Shalom,
Psalms 27:10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. KJV Thank you for your testimony. I could really relate when it came to handling emotions. When I was young I had a difficult time with emotions. I was raised by my mother, my father was in prison. I turned to alcohol and drugs which was not good. I am thankful now that I have a Heavenly Father to take me up. Peace be with you
Mike

Thanks for your comment, Mike. I really like that verse. I’m sorry to hear that you went through a tough period as a kid, but I commend you that you chose the better path. Clearly, His grace is upon your life. Shalom!

I listened to this program 3 times.
Eliyahu, you are most certainly blessed. Your dream and vision are intriguing to say the least.
I appreciate your humble beginnings and how Yashua worked in your life to bring you out of the religion you were in. Now many of us are blessed by the work you do in educating the remnant of the House of Israel.
May the Lord continue to bless you and empower you in this great work He has called you to do.
Shalom

It was so enlightening to learn of Eliyahu’s early life to see the foundation that was built upon and is now being used for a great and mighty work. I recall a somewhat parallel history that my grandfather had experienced. He was the youngest of 8 living children and his mother passed when he was 8 years old. The family fell apart leaving the 2 youngest to grow up in a shelter for the homeless. So at 12, my grandfather was working full time for his and his brother’s sustenance. This life that they and Eliyahu experienced so early on is very much opposite that of the majority of teens today. However, one particular teen I know of stands out and she was taken from her mother at around age 10 due to total neglect in education and healthcare. Today, she is a shining star in the family who adopted her and by how she overcame all of the initial deficiencies (not being able to read and write, etc.) she has really made a mark on the lives of her adopted siblings and parents. Time and time again, I’m seeing that these are the people our Father uses in His work for the kingdom, those who are humble and not boastful, those who cleave to our Lord and Savior, overcome the obstacles, and give our Creator full credit for it. Their lives, testimonies, and contributions to all of us is rock solid evidence He keeps His Word as Mike’s verse points out. Thank you for bringing Psalm 27:10 to our attention. It is so profound.

Yesterday I happened upon Dawn’s testimony of meeting Eliyahu. Today, I happened upon program #80, Eliyahu’s story of Tsiyon’s Beginnings! Wow! This background information is invaluable to be able to see into your heart. I can relate to the total change of perspective that even now compels you. You are so right about the repentance that is desperately needed. Most of Yah’s people have no clue that 1 Chron. 7:14 speaks to the wicked ways of His people. I’m curious as to when you realized that believers are grafted in to Israel? That information was such a shock when it was first explained to me several years ago; but afterwards I wondered how in the world the “church” got so far off track. Also, I’m curious about your Hebrew name. It must have been very exciting to learn that you are a “son of David”! As difficult as your childhood was, no doubt it has enabled you to relate to Yah’s “poor”, “lame”, “blind”, and “deaf” all the more. One final comment, when you spoke of the hurt of losing your mother, your best friend, I thought of Isaac’s grief of losing Sarah and later being comforted with Rebecca. Praise to our King for sending Dawn to you! It is so obvious that the two of you fit like a hand in a glove. Your interaction is so easy and entertaining that your listeners quickly feel at home–even a part of your family.

Greetings to all,
Quite an amazing show this was.I got something different each time I listened to it. What struck me the most from this vision this time was the background on your religion.To know that you had not been able to call on Y’shua before that moment.And the instant response that he took in that moment,the revelation that flooded you must have been overwhelming. Having read the Matrix vision and the stones in “Holy Order Restored” and from the “Matrix Series” on the Website,I was familiar with this Vision.What was new here for me was the background that sets the stage for this vision.
What was also refreshing to hear from you was the feeling that comes from true Revelation. Many people seek in vain to satisfy there spiritual side. There are religions everywhere to fill this need.These magnates for people act as pain pills instead of dealing with the pain.This of course is not the best way to find understanding of Yahweh or our purpose in his plans. And then BOOM! BANG! POW! it happens…You have your moment when by Grace your eyes are opened .You finally understand or start to appreciate Grace and the power of it. How just as Eliyahu asked for help, Y’shua swung into action as if he is just waiting for each of us to, just say the Word.But then the weight of what it all means seems to settle upon you.It appears to me the more understanding you have of the Big Picture the more dire the situation seems to you.The more you start to wonder if you are doing enough to help both yourself and those around you.You start a new life in essence that can only be satisfied by doing his work. Your eyes are open and you suddenly realize from where you came from and see where most still are.This can be sobering,but I say exciting all at the same time.Welcome back to Bible times people and arm yourself with the Word cause things are going to get interesting. There is so much more I could say on this hour but this point really hit home for me.We have a lot of work to do and I am eager to do my share to glorify Yahweh in the World.
Blessings to all in their quest for understanding,This site is a great place to start.

Thank you for sharing your testimony. It spoke volumes. All I can really say is Amein, and Amein.

Thank you for sharing this. Again I skipped ahead a few shows after getting more warnings from my family. Your sincerity is completely felt by me and I was even drawn to tears when listening to your cherished moments and also difficult times.
Being a new follower, I just feel so sad about those chains around people’s necks. I cant help but wonder if I came in so ‘late in the day’ for a reason? There have been times I felt like I wasted so many years between my childhood with Jesus to my lost years to finding him again recently ..but now I am thinking that if I hadnt, I too would probably be bound up!
I am seeing it’s difficult for people to look at things with new eyes. People like where they are.. the comfort of it. I pray for new eyes for all of us
I remember times, in my childhood that I know He was saving me from danger. Those years of being lost and confused … they are what led us where we are now. I am thankful for His timing.
amazing how He works in our lives !

I have believed for several years that unless and until God’s church, natural and grafted in Israel, attains to some modern equivalent of “sackcloth and ashes”, nothing much is going to change.
When the “prayer of Jabez” became the “in thing” to talk about a few years ago, It was my belief that we should be focusing on the prayers of Ezra and Daniel when they were crushed over the corruption among their people.
Maybe the current fixation on a “pre-trib” rapture is part of God’s way of setting up the situation for “whatever can be shaken will be shaken” when folks get angry about not being raptured out of the coming troubles as they have been taught to believe. Maybe that’s what its going to take to get the scattered remnant’s attention.
Thank you , Eliyahu, for sharing your story. I was reminded of the convoluted trail my own life has followed, but I haven’t had any such dreams as you described.
Looking forward to hearing more. Jim

I believe I have now heard this program three times. Your testimony is powerful. I love that you knew Him when you were a toddler and He met you in the fields were you played. What can be said about how you survived your teenage years, except that He was truly with you! If He is with you, who could be against you? I am overwhelmed to the point of not being unable to fully express what is in my heart at this time.
His goodness is beyond measure.
You, E, have been tried and tested in His crucible. Not many are able to endure that kind of refinement. Your heart, though it has been bruised by all that you have gone through, truly hurts for Him. He has revealed to you that His heart is broken because of the scattered remnant, and your heart hurts for Him.
Thank you for sharing your heart with us. For sharing the burden that you have to do what is needed to help heal His broken heart. To strive to wake the scattered remnant and raise His Temple out of the desolate sands, so that His name would be glorified in all the Earth.
Shalom,
Don

In the beginning…,there was an innocence,
an awareness of God, in the loneliness!
From the humble abode, you have grown and matured,
like a fine wine, aged and secured!
Ready to dispense with absolute joy,
all of the knowledge you learned, as a boy!
The “little minister,” yes Mom’s little man,
is given a vision of God’s holy plan!
On to Godly things, like, rescue us from the grid,
to a life in Messiah, a saving grace takeover bid!
Witnessing at large, including your Dad,
I could feel your love, you surely have had!
Draw back together, a strength that is tribal,
the remnant you feel, should be so labeled!
One body, one mind, all united in thought,
a nation of God, is what you have sought!
Hey man, thanks for the testimony!
You two are true superheroes in my book!
Accolades are not what you seek, but at times are necessary!
Yahweh is alive your hearts, Eliyahu and Dawn,
Thanx for your dedication!

It was a pleasure to hear your testimony. I’m sorry you lost your mother at such a young age. I lost my father when I was 10 years old and I was in denial for quite a while. I did not believe he really died even though I saw his demolished truck on the news. I didn’t even cry. I had recurring dreams that He was alive and it was such a relief but He did not want anything to do with me which was distressing emotionally. Somehow through my adolescence I put up walls around my heart and became cold and uncompassionate. Eventually I accepted my father’s death and finally wept. God stepped into my life in my early twenties through a severe depression. I was not raised in a Godly home all I knew that there was a God. I believe I was born again through this early experience but knew nothing of the denying of the flesh and even faith for that matter. I struggled for many years until God put some truly sincere Christians in my life and through them I was discipled and began to grow with many set backs of course. I foward copied programs from your ministry to these people and they really appreciate and receive new revelation from them. I read your book HOLY ORDER RESTORED and am familiar with the dreams and vision you received from God but hearing this really has an impact. It is my firm conviction that God lead me to your ministry and I am so honored and thankful to Him to be able to receive this training and revelation. There is nothing even close to it’s magnitude. I want to thank you for all your hard work,effort,and sacrifice to make this possible for people like me. I’m glad you said yes to God and your heart’s desire is to please Him. I look foward to meeting you someday.

Thank you for sharing.

GREETINGS TRIBESMEN!!!
My heart was ripped to shreds as I listened to E’s testimony. This is a prime example of how Yahweh sifts through all the garbage of life and finds a precious jewel.
You live a life of GREAT EXAMPLE my friend. You have been purged and tested to complete the work that Yahweh has called you too.
I stand with you and love you and you are a dear friend and buddy.
