How does a person go from believer, to disciple, to leader? By Faith. (Hebrews 11 – The Faith Chapter)
“Faith is that Quality, not Quantity, of Power whereby the things hoped for become the things possessed.”
If you don’t use “Now Faith, Through Faith, By Faith”, you wind up “Without Faith.” This is done by the Worship of G-d, to the Walk with G-d, to the Work with G-d.

Abel was the first to worship G-d.
“By faith, Abel offered to G-d a better sacrifice than Cain, through which he obtained the testimony that he was righteous, G-d testifying about his gifts, and through faith, though he is dead, he still speaks” [Hebrews 11:4]
How can Abel be dead and still speak to us today? By defining true worship compared to worship in the flesh (Genesis 4:3-5,7). How does a “set-apart” person worship G-d? You cannot answer this question from the Brit HaChadashah, but from the Torah. If G-d had changed His mind, He would have done it in the Brit HaChadashah.

Enoch was the first to walk with G-d (Hebrews 11:5-6). How do you walk with G-d?
“As you therefore have received the Messiah, Yeshua as L-RD, so walk in Him, having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith just as you were instructed, and overflowing with grati- tude” [Colossians. 2:6-7]

Here is the problem. Once you are given the word of G-d, and you apply that word to your life because of your love for G-d, you can never go back to the way you were. Noah was the first to work with G-d (Hebrews 11:7). You cannot be a leader and work with G-d without first walking with G-d. You cannot walk with G-d without dealing with true worship of G-d. To worship G-d must be done in spirit and truth, not in the flesh. It is G-d who takes you from one dimension to another.

All three sounds are blown on Rosh Hashanah a day when G-d is recognized as Creator to be wor- shipped, a forgiving Father, and coming Judge. Yet, what most people associate Rosh Hashanah with is the resurrection of the dead.

Abraham was the first to experience the Resurrection from the Dead (Hebrews 11:11-12). If a miracle birth did not happen, the Jew would not exist. [Romans 4:16-22]

For some of you when you hear the Tekiah of the Shofar, know that G-d is calling you to the true wor- ship of Abel.
For some of you when you hear the Shevarim of the Shofar, know that G-d is calling you to walk with Him, as Enoch, with repentance.
For some of you when you hear the Teruah of the Shofar, know that G-d is calling you, like Noah, to pre- pare the way of the L-RD.
For ALL of you when you hear the TEKIAH HAGADOLAH of the Shofar, know that G-d is calling you, like Abraham, to experience the resurrection and reign of the Messiah.

“…and they shall see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with tremendous power and glory. He will send out his angels with THE GREAT SHOFAR, and they will gather together his chosen people from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other” [Matthew 24:30-31]
