Bring Moshiach!

Action is what’s most important! We ought to use out these auspicious days of Tes and Yud Kislev, which the number ten is always holy, to hasten the Geulah, that it should become a reality. Especially, in adding in giving Tzedakah, because there is no better way to hasten the Geulah!

In simple words, this means practically, since everything is ready for the Geulah we need to just reveal it. First and foremost by that which is relevant today, on the birthday and Yartzeit of the Mitteler Rebbe, adding and learning his Torah, which is in the full length and breadth of understanding. This learning should be relevant to every Yid, men and women alike, as mentioned a number of times, that spreading Chassidus is relevant to women and girls as well.

Learning is great because it brings to action! Everyone should make an effort to express their Ruchnius and Chassidishkeit in their Gashmius. This means that in all of their physical behaviors, in physical time and place, should be felt the warmth and energy that flows from Yiddishkeit to Chassidishkeit, to the extent that there should be no separation to them at all, until they fuse and become one.

In addition to this, everyone should see to it to arrange a Farbrengen in every single place, beginning with the Chag HaGeulah of Yud Kislev. During the Farbrengen they should learn some of the Torah of the Mitteler Rebbe and to take upon good Hachlatos, especially learning Inyonei Geulah and Moshiach to prepare oneself and those around them for the Geulah Shleima. May it be Hashem’s will, that from all of the above, immediately we should have the revelation of the Geulah!

The Frierdiker Rebbe instructed that the day of his liberation should become established as a day of Farbrengen – gathering for the strengthening of Torah and Yiddishkeit in every area.

We should ensure that in every area around the globe there should be a hakhel gathering where we think about what we have accomplished in the last year and what we will do this year to strengthen Yiddishkeit, Torah and Mitzvos, and spreading the wellsprings of Chassidus.

It is a mitzvah for this message to be spread in every place we can reach and it will certainly have a positive effect.

This will enable us to complete our mission in golus and automatically usher in the Geulah, when the scheduled fast of 17 Tammuz will be converted into a day of true celebration.

The special days of 12-13 Tammuz are approaching, when we celebrate the release and liberation of the Frierdiker Rebbe from exile in 1927.

We must inspire ourselves and influence our surroundings to make the appropriate preparations for the celebrations of this day. Gatherings should be established in every place with a special emphasis on undertaking new resolutions to add strength and vitality to all areas of Yiddishkeit, Torah & Mitzvos. And especially to spread the wellsprings of Chassidus, starting with the addition of public Torah Shiurim.

The conversations and resolutions in connection with the Geula of 12-13 Tammuz, will hasten and bring about the complete and ultimate Geula!

The Frierdiker Rebbe’s primary goal was to hasten the Geulah, as he famously announced in the “Kol Korei” publication: “Immediate Teshuvah (will bring about) Immediate Geulah”.

It is clear that Tammuz, being the month of the “Geulah” of a Rebbe, who personified hastening the “Geulah”, is an auspicious time that prepares us, and empowers us to bring about the Geulah today! Even today the Rebbe remains active through us and within us!
The objective now is to focus our energy primarily with actions that have the intended goal & purpose to hasten the Geuah – Now!

When the Frierdiker Rebbe was released from exile on the 3rd of Tammuz (5687), he delivered a passionate speech in which he declared “it is not by our own will, that we have been exiled, neither is it due to our own power and merits that we will be released! It is rather our Father, our King, who has exiled us, and it is the Almighty One, blessed be He, who will redeem us”!

Reflecting on this statement, we may learn a very empowering message: since “it is not due to our merits that we will be released”, rather it is all orchestrated by the will of our Father in heaven, we can deduce that Moshiach is destined to arrive despite my personal inadequacy that requires amendment.

It is therefore clear: whilst each one of us must continue to expand our efforts in spreading Torah and Judaism, we must not feel weakened in our request and demand for the Geulah now and our outcry of “Ad Mosai”?!

And may it be Hashem’s will; from the mere discussion of the Geulah, we shall merit to celebrate 12-13 Tammuz with the Rebbe—Neshama B’guf!

Our ‘Nasi Hador’ attested that all areas of work have been completed making the world ready for redemption, this includes even the ‘polishing of the buttons’ (finishing touches)! Today we stand ready to welcome Moshiach.

One may question “When I reflect on my personal level, I know there remains much to be desired and rectified, how can the world around me really be ready to welcome Moshiach?!”

The answer is that while it’s true that each person must continue to repair their ‘personal’ actions, this does not contradict the Rebbe’s testament, that on a ‘universal’ level, throughout the generations, all work has been completed! There remains no obstacle withholding Moshiach’s arrival.
We therefore must ready ourselves to ‘Welcome Moshiach’ today!
