ADONAI
When we see God, it starts from Aleph.
We see God as powerful, strong with authority
1. ALEPH
God's Word is alive and its revelation will never ceases. It is ongoing. New revelation or the old we think we know but we don't know yet.
Aleph speaks of the divine realm.
There are two realms
Spiritual realm and earthly realm
Spiritual realm can come down to earth to the people in earthly realm
Because of sin, we are separated
Adam, men, only conscious of earthly realm.
Today all of us have our spiritual eyes open, so that we can live the divine realm on this earth
2. DALET – DOOR TO “I AM”
The ancient Hebrew letter “Dalet” is the 4th letter of the alphabet,
and also has the gematria number value of “4”.
Door starts with the word Dalet. Dalet is not door. Dalet is not exactly door.
A door is an entry. Dalah means poor, weak, helpless one
When we enter the door, we get to see the I AM.
This Hebrew word is comprised of the Dalet, joined with the “Lamed” and ending with the “Tav”.
This pictogram has a powerful meaning and can be understood to say, “The Door (Dalet) of (true) Authority (Lamed) will be hung on a Cross (Tav)”.
Lamed is about teaching
He is the Only One, the truth the way
Passover, you can see the door. The door, no evil can come in. The angel of death passed by, will not affect Hebrew family that has this blood on the door. I am the door, whoever enter through me will be saved
Green speaks of new life Today Jesus is saying, Come In On the side of darkness we cannot see properly, the logic realm
The other side is the life of faith
3. NUN
The ancient pictograph Nun is a picture of a seed sprout representing the idea of continuing to a new generation.
This pictograph has the meanings of "continue," "perpetuation," "offspring" and "heir."
The Modern Hebrew name is nun, a Hebrew word meaning to "continue," "offspring" and "heir."
God does not stop there. When He created Adam, it was for continuation. There is increase, continuation. It is to your descendent as well. This is a God who continues, heir with Christ and join-heir with Him
God is not one stop there and finish already.
Spiritual life that continues
To continue, there is offspring, heir.
In Him there is continuation and growth. In the spiritual life, it is always ongoing. Always attach to the source of life. When a person is born again, it is a new life
Nun is a place to truly show we are born again.
Spirit life like a seed
Parable of sowers
1 PETER 1:23 AMPC
You have been regenerated (born again), not from a mortal origin
(seed, sperm), but from one that is immortal by the ever living and
lasting Word of God.
G4701 seed
Original: σπορά
Transliteration: spora
Phonetic: spor-ah'
Strong's Definition: From G4687; a SOWING, that is, PARENTAGE:- SEED.
through the idea of EXTENDING); to SCATTER, that is, sow:- sow (-er), receive seed.
We heard a Word. Same for any other things in our lives. We need to hear the living word that becomes a seed in our life.
We born again means we have parents now.
GENESIS 26:12-14 AMPC
Then Isaac SOWED SEED in that land and received in the same year a hundred times as much AS he HAD PLANTED, and THE LORD favored him with blessings.
And the man became great and gained more and more until he became very wealthy and distinguished;
He owned flocks, herds, and a great supply of servants, and the Philistines envied him.
You sow seeds because seeds will grow
Seed is God's Word and our finances
4. YUD
The letter Yud is the smallest of all of the letters.
It is referred to as: the little that holds a lot.
Also the fiery hand of God.
Yud is God's hands.
Mighty and strong
God is inside you. God is the one who increases.
ISAIAH 14:26-27 NIV
This is the plan determined for the whole world;
this is the HAND STRETCHED OUT over all nations.
For the Lord Almighty has purposed, and who can thwart him?
HIS HAND is STRETCHED OUT, and who can turn it back?
Yod, the whole word is the meaning of hands.
God's hands speak of work. He has the power. If you don't work, you don't eat.
The hands speak of action. To cause you to do what Jesus did and greater things!
The hands of God is powerful
The hebrew letter Yod is the first letter of God’s name out of four letters which indicated this letter’s importance and powerfulness.
The name Adonai is found more than 400 times in the Bible and is full of meaning.
The name comes from the singular word Adon, which is translated “MASTER” or “RULER.”
It contains the concepts of DOMINION, RULERSHIP, and OWNERSHIP.
The one you work for, you call them master.
You are saying these people has dominion over you.
They have dominion. They must have some power. Power over you or over something.
Today because of grace, we come to God and see Him as who He is.
Grace does not change who God is. With grace, we trust Him more and obey Him more.
Thus when God is referred to in Scripture with the plural Adonai,
He is seen as OWNER.
God is not only the Creator (Elohim) but also the OWNER (Adonai), God reveals this OWNERSHIP in His Word.
Don't call yourself master if you do not have power.
PSALM 50:10-12 CEB
because every forest animal already belongs to me,
as do the cattle on a thousand hills.
I know every mountain bird; even the insects in the fields are mine.
Even if I were hungry, I wouldn’t tell you because the WHOLE WORLD
and EVERYTHING IN IT already BELONG to ME.
He is who He is, whether we believe or not.
That is why there is ancient of days.
Those who don't believe, one day will have to bow down.
There is a Judgement Day, thank God believers don't have to go through that.
God Adonai means I own this world.
God has dominion. He is the ruler and the owner!
Thus when God is referred to in Scripture with the plural Adonai,
He is seen as OWNER.
God is not only the Creator (Elohim) but also the OWNER (Adonai), God reveals this OWNERSHIP in His Word.
He owns you and me. He bought us with the blood of Jesus.
He has purchased us.
Everything we have, our lives belong to Him
God has bought us with a price
He paid a price for us
He is your Owner and your Master. He owns you because He bought you
Each name of God has a specific meaning
PSALM 50:10-12 CEB
because every forest animal already belongs to me,
as do the cattle on a thousand hills.
I know every mountain bird; even the insects in the fields are mine.
Even if I were hungry, I wouldn’t tell you because the WHOLE WORLD
and EVERYTHING IN IT already BELONG to ME.
Ownership has the word BELONG to
Example:
Property belongs to you.
God gives you the thing of this world as stewardship
Everything of this world is temporarily and will expire.
The whole world and everything inside belongs to Me
1 PETER 3:6 KJV
Even as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him LORD:
whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well,
and are not afraid with any amazement.
Sarah obeyed Abraham calling him lord. She recognised lordship and master
that is why we are referred to as daughters of Sarah.
Today Jesus is our Lord
The purpose of a couple or marriage, you can read in Eph 5.
A picture to show Jesus and the church.
The main thing is for our lifestyle is peace between husband and wife
Be wise, God is your Lord today
Sarah experienced the benefit of recognise Abraham as master
She was the neck, though she directed wrong way
His Word is what we go by.
G2962
Original: κύριος
Transliteration: kurios
Phonetic: koo'-ree-os
Thayer Definition:
he to whom a person or thing belongs, about which he has POWER of DECIDING;
MASTER,
LORD
the POSSESSOR and DISPOSER of a thing
the OWNER;
ONE who HAS CONTROL of the person,
in the state: the sovereign, prince, chief, the Roman emperor
is a title of honour expressive of respect and reverence, with which SERVANTS GREET THEIR MASTER
this title is given to: God, the Messiah
Origin: from kuros (SUPREMACY)
Strong's Definition: From κῦρος kuros (supremacy); SUPREME in AUTHORITY, that is, (as noun) controller;
by implication MR. (as a RESPECTFUL TITLE):- God, Lord, master, Sir.
We respect the shepherd.
God is our Master, our Shepherd and our Lord.
Sarah called Abraham “lord.”
The Greek word translated “lord” in this passage is “kyrios,” which is the Greek equivalent to the Hebrew word “ADON ,”
the singular form of Adonai, a plural name of God.
Do not correct an older person.
if the person is older in person, find respect and don't harshly correct the older person.
Ownership has much more to do with RESPONSIBILITY than with mere dominion.
GOD, in His role of ADONAI, fulfills all the RESPONSIBILITY of OWNERSHIP.
He PROVIDES, PROTECTS, GUARDS, LEADS, CARE FOR ….and much more.
God has responsibility in the dominion.
He provides, protects and guards. He is a God who shows His responsibility as a owner.
GENESIS 15:1 KJV
AFTER THESE THINGS the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram:
I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
AFTER THESE THINGS - What are these things?
Melchizedek, Bread and wine, Tithing
When does God speaks to us the most, clearly, revelation. Hear from the Lord. Revelation. God speaks to us.
GENESIS 14:17 NLT
After Abram returned from his victory over Kedorlaomer and all his allies, the king of Sodom went out to meet him in the valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley).
God revealed so much of His nature to Abraham.
GENESIS 14:18 AMPC
Melchizedek king of Salem [later called Jerusalem] brought out BREAD and WINE [for their nourishment]; he was the priest of God Most High
Melchizedek was a human being, a king. This Melchizedek was a type of Jesus
Jesus died on the cross, today we take communion understanding we are eating spiritual life of Jesus. He came to give us first. That is the bread and wine. It is real bread and wine. It speaks of the spiritual. At that point it is real. For their nourishment.
GENESIS 14:19 AMPC
And HE BLESSED him and SAID, Blessed
(FAVORED with BLESSINGS, made BLISSFUL, JOYFUL)
be Abram BY GOD MOST HIGH,
Possessor and Maker of heaven and earth,
The blessing is Words plus Bread and Wine
That is why we need to have the Word
The Word is blessings of God
Learn Words!
Words are very powerful and meaningful
Words have power. All the blessings are through Words
God created this world through speaking. Blessed! Empower! Giving you the power to be a blessing
When God blessings come, people laugh! What God has given us is joy!
In the fullness of God is joy!
Being happy is happiness!
Our mouth will fill with laughter!
GENESIS 14:20 CEB
bless EL ELYON, WHO GAVE YOU the victory over your enemies.”
Abram gave Melchizedek one-tenth of everything.
With joy, nourishment.
Whatever he had from the battle, he gave it to Melchizedek
GENESIS 14:21-22 CEB
Then the king of Sodom said to Abram,
“Give me the people and take the property for yourself.”
But Abram said to the king of Sodom, “I promised the LORD,
El Elyon, creator of heaven and earth,
GENESIS 14:23-24 CEB
that I wouldn’t take even a thread or a sandal strap from
anything that was yours so that you couldn’t say,
‘I’m the one who made Abram rich.’
The only exception is that the young men may keep whatever
they have taken to eat, and the men who went with me—Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre—may keep their share.”
GENESIS 15:1 KJV
AFTER THESE THINGS the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram:
I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
In your tithing you are acknowledging God as your Source. He will provide, He will see to it.
Acknowledge Him as your Source. I am your shield, your exceeding great reward.
GENESIS 15:2 KJV
And Abram said, LORD GOD, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus?

GENESIS 15:2-3 CEB
But Abram said, “LORD God, what can you possibly give me,
since I still have no children?
The head of my household is Eliezer, a man from Damascus.”
He continued, “Since you haven’t given me any children,
the head of my household will be my HEIR.”
They understand the meaning of continuity
Abraham already acknowledge God as Adoni in the word Lord, God
GENESIS 15:4-5 CEB
The LORD’s word came immediately to him,
“This man will not be your heir.
Your HEIR will definitely be your very own biological child.”
Then he brought Abram outside and said, “LOOK UP at the SKY and count the stars if you think you can count them.”
Look up and not look at here or there in the world. Look up and see how great your God is!
Sees how God sees!
He continued, “This is how many children you will have.”
GENESIS 15:6-7 CEB
Abram TRUSTED the LORD, and the LORD recognized

a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram,
a dove, and a young pigeon.”

How do you know you will posses it?
When I acknowledge God as Adonai!
Look at the sacrifice!
GENESIS 15:11-12 CEB
When vultures swooped down on the carcasses, Abram waved them off. After the sun set, Abram slept deeply. A terrifying and deep darkness settled over him.

GENESIS 15:13-14 CEB
Then the LORD said to Abram, “Have no doubt that your DESCENDANTS will live as immigrants in a land that isn’t their own, where they will be oppressed slaves for four hundred years.
But after I punish the nation they serve, they will leave it with GREAT WEALTH.
Go sleep, take rest. None was weak.
GENESIS 15:15-16 CEB
As for you, you will join your ancestors in peace and be buried after a good long life.

ROMANS 10:9-10 TPT
And WHAT is God’s “living message”? It is the revelation of FAITH for SALVATION, which is the message that we preach.
Many times we ask God, how, Lord, how will I know I will be blessed?
Look at the sacrifice, the covenant
If you believe Him as Lord, all these blessings will happen to you.
Don't look at 4D, or hospital record. Look at the covenant!
Jesus was the sacrifice.
This is how you know the blessings will be yours
ROMANS 10:9-10 TPT
And WHAT is God’s “living message”? It is the revelation of FAITH for SALVATION, which is the message that we preach.
For if you PUBLICLY DECLARE with your MOUTH that JESUS is LORD (ADONAI) and BELIEVE in your HEART that God raised him from the dead, you will EXPERIENCE SALVATION.
The HEART that BELIEVES in HIM RECEIVES the GIFT of the RIGHTEOUSNESS of GOD—and then the MOUTH CONFESSES, resulting in SALVATION.
Salvation means sozo, wholeness. The wholeness, the healing, the prosperity
Sozo comes when we see Jesus as the Alef Tav
In our actions, we acknowledge Him as our Lord, Adonai. God's Word is the final say and we will experience God
God made the covenant at the cross
A sign of the covenant
A sign of the cross
Jesus came and cut the covenant with God
Today we can live under the covenant of the bread and the wine blessings, if we were believe and acknowledge Him as Lord.
Jesus as Lord means I obey the Word, the Word of God as my final say!
Lord comes first. Jesus as Lord and Saviour. As Adonai, as the One who rules over our lives
Who is that now today? Jesus!
Everything we can go through the door, the dalet
It is spiritual realm co-exist with this physical realm
We step into the door, we come in and eat
Come and eat the Word of God. Come and taste and see that it is good.
The master of the house said come and eat. Hear the master of the house said, come in and eat. Follow in to the new realm, Adoni has prepared for us. Jesus' death on the cross is guarantee. You will experience salvation in every aspect in your life.
Adonai, He is God.
