Before Torah Reading
Matthew 5:17-20
Do not think that I came to dismiss the Torah or the Prophets. I have not come to dismiss, but to carry out. For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not one smallest letter or one stroke shall pass away from the Torah, until everything happens. Therefore, anyone who dismisses one of these small mitzvoth (Commandments), and thus teach the sons of men to do so, will be called little in the Kingdom of Heaven; but those who do and teach them shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.
When Removing Torah From Ark
When the Ark set out, Mosha would say: Arise, O AdonYah, and Your adversaries will be scattered, and Your enemies will flee before You. For from Zion shall go forth the Torah, and the Word of AdonYah from Jerusalem. Blessed is He who in His holiness gave Torah to His people Israel.
The Torah which Moshe commanded us is the heritage of congregation of Ya’aqub. (Kiss the Torah)
The Book of Revelation ch 2
http://www.bayithamashiyach.com/revelation_2.pdf
Gospel of Thomas v. 110-114
110) Jesus said, “Whoever finds the world and becomes rich, let
him renounce the world.”
111) Jesus said, “The heavens and the earth will be rolled up in
your presence. And one who lives from the Living One will not see
death.” Does not Jesus say, “Whoever finds himself is superior to
the world?”
112) Jesus said, “Woe to the flesh that depends on the soul; woe
to the soul that depends on the flesh.”
113) His disciples said to Him, “When will the Kingdom come?”
not be a matter of saying ‘Here it is’ or ‘There it is.’ Rather,
the Kingdom of the Father is spread out upon the earth, and men
do not see it.”
114) Simon Peter said to Him, “Let Mary leave us, for women are
not worthy of Life.”
Jesus said, “I myself shall lead her in order to make her
male, so that she too may become a living spirit resembling you
males. For every woman who will make herself male will enter the
Kingdom of Heaven.”

Ode Thirty Two
1 I stretched out my hands towards the Lord, and towards the Most High I raised my voice.
2 And I spoke with the lips of my heart, and He heard me when my voice reached Him. 3 His Word came towards me, in order to give me the fruits of my labours;
4 And gave me rest by the grace of the Lord. Halleluyah.
Ode Thirty Three
1 I went up into the light of Truth as into a chariot, and the Truth led me and caused me to come.
2 And caused me to pass over chasms and gulfs, and saved me from cliffs and valleys. 3 And became for me a haven of salvation, and set me on the place of immortal life.
4 And He went with me and caused me to rest and did not allow me to err; because He was and is the Truth.
5 And there was no danger for me because I constantly walked with Him; and I did not err in anything because I obeyed Him.
6 For Error fled from Him, and never met Him.
7 But Truth was proceeding on the upright way, and whatever I did not understand He exhibited to me:
8 All the poisons of error, and pains of death which are considered sweetness.
9 And the corrupting of the corrupter, I saw when the bride who was corrupting was adorned, and the bridegroom who corrupts and is corrupted.
10 And I asked the Truth, Who are these? And He said to me: This is the Deceiver and the Error.
After Torah Reading
Psalm 119:18
Happy are they who are upright in the way, who walk in the Torah of AdonYah. Happy are they who keep His testimonies, that seek Him with the whole heart. They do no unrighteousness; they walk in His way. You have ordained Your precepts, that we should observe them diligently. Oh that my ways were directed to observe Your statutes! Then I would not be ashamed, when I have given diligence unto all Your mitzvoth. I will give thanks unto You with uprightness of heart, when I learn Your righteous ordinances. I will observe Your statutes; do not utterly forsake me.
Lord Yeshua, you who were brought forth by the very hand of God the Father, made known to the Blessed Mother Maryam, by the message of the angel Gabriel — I praise you, I thank you and I honour you with all my heart. It was you who said, ‘I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me, shall not hunger; and he that believeth on me, shall never thirst.’ Grant unto the presence of the Spirit of holiness as you promised to your disciples, so that I may understand the Word of God and the Will of the Father for me. Amen.
