Noadiah – The Prophetess

A number of prophets are mentioned throughout the Bible, along with a number of prophetesses. In the following teaching Aliyah examines the prophetess Noadiah and her connection to the land of Israel and Nehemiah. Although many righteous men and women prophesied boldly in the name of Yahweh, some prophesied presumptuously and unrighteously. Noadiah belonged to the latter group of prophets; and it is worthwhile to examine her life and the impact she made on the people around her. Her heart was moved by compassion and the plight of suffering, so much so that it led her towards wrong motives and wrong prophecy. Her life is a lesson for our own.

Zelophehad’s Daughters – Women of Inheritance

In the book of Numbers, five women, daughters of the tribe of Manasseh, stepped forward with conviction. "Give us land, a property inheritance in borders of the Promised Land. Our father had no sons, only daughters so why should our father's name disappear from among Israel?" In making this request, these daughters petitioned for a change in the Law. In this teaching, Aliyah unpacks their request and how their words impacted generations upon generations of Israelite women. Also, finding biblical women and their names in historical or archaeological documents is often extremely difficult. Yet, the daughters of Zelophehad appear elsewhere, proving their existence and their impact. This exciting truth reveals their legacy! Join Aliyah for this rich, profound teaching on these women of inheritance, Machlah, Noa, Hoglah, Milcah and Tirzah.

Who was Candace of Ethiopia ?

When Philip meets the Ethiopian eunuch on the road to Gaza, we are told that this mysterious man is the state treasurer to Candace, queen of the Ethiopians. But this strange description is inaccurate and the Candace, was never an Ethiopian queen. So who was she, and what kingdom did she rule over? In this teaching, Aliyah unpacks the importance of Candace, and her kingdom, a kingdom that ruled Egypt, and featured as a world player on the stage of history for thousands of years. It's a kingdom South of Egypt, and it's history is rich with fierce warrior queens who fought against Rome, and immortalised their victories in temples and pyramids. This is a story from the pages of the Bible that tell of the history of Africa, and its female queens.

Who Was Pharoah’s Daughter?

We meet the infant Moses on the banks of the Nile, enclosed in a small wicker basket. His life hanging in the balance, his fate uncertain. His mother Jochebed knew Pharoah would kill her son, so she placed him safely in the reeds, sad and defeated. It would seem that the tiny boy might perish in the reeds. But Yahweh had a different plan. Pharoah's daughter came down to the river to bathe and found the Hebrew baby. Moved with compassion, she saved him and took him as her own son. In this teaching, Aliyah sifts through history in order to discover the identity of Pharoah's daughter.

Luke in his gospel takes us beyond the crowds into the inner circle of Yeshua’s most faithful followers, into the company of His most trusted disciples. Luke names the 12, and then he names 3. Three women are in the inner circle, and among these women is Joanna. A woman of nobility and wealth, a woman who risked it all to follow the Messiah.

Proverbs 31 – The Warrior of Yahweh.
Sermons

Proverbs 31 – The Warrior of Yahweh.

Proverbs 31 begins with a telling question, who can find an Eshet Chayil? The question is asked but also answered, it is answered when we consider the true meaning of Chayil. The original meaning of the word is warrior, army, powerful or valiant one. So in essence who can find a warrior woman? But what does it mean to be a warrior, are warriors born, or made, are they fearful or brave or both? In this teaching, Aliyah looks at not only the meaning of the word “chayil,” but also at the life of another individual who was called “chayil.” From this persons life, we discover the true meaning of a warrior from the viewpoint of heaven. This teaching has a message, a challenge and a prophetic call.

Sermons

The Proverbs 31 Woman – “Tried Through Fire”

Proverbs 31 is full of beautiful nuggets of truth about the warrior woman of God. In this particular teaching, Aliyah uncovers the difference between the original language and the English translation in verse 10, the translation which teaches us that the warrior woman is worth more than rubies. You may be surprised to learn that rubies are not mentioned in the original, something else is and it gives us all a deeper look in to the true worth of the Eshet Chayil of God. This is a stirring message of encouragement, bible study and inspiration, take a listen!

Whats Wrong with Being Martha?

The very moment anyone mentions Mary and Martha, listeners quickly settle themselves in to the camp of Mary and all too soon because of one misunderstood passage of scripture, they judge Martha. While this is not the only interaction readers have with Martha throughout the word, it is one of the only interactions that people remember. It is the culminating point where people point out Martha’s faults and compare her to Mary, but is this right? Are we overlooking the point of the story?Are we overlooking and fault - finding one of the most devoted and beloved followers of Yeshua?
