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 Matthew

Ch 26

1 And it came to pass, that when Yeshua had finished all these sayings, he said to his
talmidim:
2 “You know that after two days is Pesach; and the Son of Man will be betrayed to be crucified.”
3 Then the chief priests and the scribes and the elders of the people gathered together at the court of the high priest, who was called Qeiafa.
4 And they took counsel concerning Yeshua, so that they might take arrest him by deceit and murder him.
5 And they were saying: “Not during the festival, in case disorder should take place among the people.”
6 And when Yeshua was in Beit-Anya, in the house of Shimon the potter,
7 a woman approached him having an alabaster vase of ointment that was a very valuable perfume, and she poured it on the head of Yeshua as he was reclining.
8 And when his talmidim saw this they were not pleased, and said: “Why such waste?

9 For this could have been sold for a high price, and then could have been given to the poor.”
10 But Yeshua knew this, and said to them: “Why are you upsetting her? The woman has done a good deed for me.
11 For you will always have the poor with you; but you will not always have me.

The Book of Psalms

Ch 106-107

1 ¶ Praise Mar-Yah. O give thanks to Mar-Yah, for he is good; for his mercy endures for ever. 2 Who can utter the mighty acts of Mar-Yah? Who can show forth all his praise? 3 Blessed are they that keep his judgements, and they that do righteousness at all times. 4 Remember us, O Mar-Yah, with the favour that thou bearest to thy people; O visit us with thy salvation, 5 That we may see the good of thy chosen, that we may rejoice in thy joy, and be glorified with thine inheritance.
6 ¶ We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.

The Odes of Solomon

Odes 25

1 Mar-Yah is my hope, I shall not be ashamed of Him.
Ode 26
1 Fill for yourselves water from the living fountain of Mar-Yah, because it has been opened for you.
2 And come all you thirsty and take a drink, and rest beside the fountain of Mar-Yah.
3 Because it is pleasing and sparkling, and perpetually refreshes the self.
4 For much sweeter is its water than honey, and the honeycomb of bees is not to be compared with it;
5 Because it flowed from the lips of Mar-Yah, and it named from the heart of Mar-Yah.
6 And it came boundless and invisible, and until it was set in the middle they knew it not.
7 Blessed are they who have drunk from it, and have refreshed themselves by it. Halilu’Ya.
Ode 27
1 Chasms vanished before Mar-Yah, and darkness dissipated before His
2 For according to His praise He made me, and according to His grace even so He gave to me.
3 And according to His mercies He exalted me, and according to His great honour He lifted me up.

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.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Forehead:”May I have the mind of Mshikha”, Mouth:”May I speak pure words of Torah”, Heart:”and may my heart be sealed”, Right shoulder: “in the blood of the Lamb”& Left shoulder :” Amen. ” God is One.

Or

Forehead:”Mshikha in my mind.”, Mouth:”Torah in my mouth.”, Heart:”The blood of the Lamb in my heart.”, Right shoulder:”In Yeshua’s Name.” & Left Shoulder:”Amen.”In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. God is One.

May Mar Yah Bless You and Keep You.
