Rabbi Pessin-lets produce

it's a wonderful privilege a great truth and an honor to be able to share a shi'u presented by hazak and chicken for shabbos and the title is let's produce we're going to try to talk a little about the power that we have with our words words can heal and words can kill so to be able to speak on behalf of hazak what a wonderful organization i was just shown around the office and the work that they do is just remarkable i'm reminded of in massachusetts and 85th page 85a where the gemara says if one teaches a son of someone who's unaffiliated torah he has so much that if he decrees something hashem is as if forced to fulfill it that continues and says that if one teaches his son's friend torah zoi he will merit to sit upstairs with all the tadikim in the heavenly yeshiva what greatest to be involved in teaches us you should have many students but not everyone is capable of having many students not everyone is a qualified teacher i think if one supports this unbelievable work of chazak he will get all the merits associated with those who in fact teach those people it will be counted as if he in fact has many students he will merit to sit in the yeshiva shalmala and he has the courage to give blessings and to decree and hashem as if is forced to fulfill cannot think of a more worthy cause to be involved in partnering with hazak and what about chicken for shabbos chicken for shabbos is such a wonderful wonderful organization they support so much males that has have to be fed especially families of milan and there is a medicine the middle says in the future there will be seven groups of sadiq that will sit around the sit to the right side of hashem and the medish answers the group of the milam dem the group of the rabbis those who teach to our youth how does the medish know this it's a pasuk in tehilim sweetness when the rabbit teaches it over with sweetness to the kid and they just want more he gets to sit on the right side of the balcon for eternity but again as we said before not everyone is qualified to become a teacher who can give it over with sweetness to the kids but i think if one supports the milandi through chickens for shabbis he gets those merits as well and he will be associated with those who teach torah to the youth and therefore he gets to sit on the right side of the ball have the weight corresponding to all the mitzvahs of the torah so when you give to chickens for shabbos chickenforshabbis.com and when you give to hazak give hazak.com i think one merits all those unbelievable virtues that we just mentioned and he meant hashem praise worthy are they and they should we always have the koi to continue with their avoid so we speak about the power of our words i want to share with you an amazing story shortly after the holocaust the boba ferreirbe the grand rebbe of babuf a hasidic master was walking to shul on a weekday and he saw this eid this jew who looked very unkempt very sad it looked as if he didn't have any will to live anymore so the baba from was walking to shoal and he asked him would you maybe like to come along with me and this fellow says no maybe you'd like to put on that fitting and this man says no so the baba forever says to him would you like to be the khazan and he says yes i'd like to be the chasen they go to shul and he was the khazen a few days later it's shabbis the bob of arabic goes to shul with his son aftali and right in front of the show right in front of the entrance to the shul they see again this fellow smoking a cigarette and shabbis the baba foreign looks at him and says would you like to come in and dive in with us and he says no the baba foreign looks at him again and says would you like to come in and maybe you can be our cousin again you did such a good job just a few days ago maybe you'd like to be the cousin again and this man says yes i like that idea yes i'll come in with you into show his son naftali asks you're going to give a person who's a mikhail shabbis if i like shabbos and you're going to allow him to be the hazen in our shul and the baba forever says why do you say that he's mikhail shabas and his son says what do you say what do you mean why didn't you see him smoking a cigarette at the entrance of the show just a few minutes ago and the baba foreign looked at his son and he told him you should know this man is not smoking a cigarette it's hitler that's smoking the cigarette it's the nazi miyama shimamura smoking the cigarette fast forward 50 years later looking fellow comes over to the baba farebe was very old at the time already and he says to him you probably don't recognize me 50 years ago you brought me to your school and you allowed me to be the chasen bo hashem those words of encouragement you gave me hope you allowed me to be who i am and now my grandson is getting married i wanted to invite the rebbe to officiate the wedding and the rebbe was very old and awake and he asked him where and when will the wedding take place and he told him i'm so sorry i won't be able to attend but i would like to come to the cheva brachus if it's possible and he says sure the baba foreign came to the cheva bajos and this man shakes his hand and says to him do you see the 75 little kindle here 75 beautiful children all hasidish and the baba philippe says yeah he says you know these are not my grandchildren these are your grandchildren you enabled and allow them to become who they are because of your words of encouragement 50 years ago the koyak that we have with our mouths let's counter that with another story about 13 years ago i was here in the states i live in arizona i live in ramada chemist but i was visiting near the states and i was in connecticut and i used to go to david in a certain town i'm not going to mention the name but it's up in connecticut and i saw that every single day they barely had a minion in the summer i figured it's kind of hard some people are away they go up to the mountains barely had a minion one day we didn't even have a minion from inhamaref and then one day there were two travelers passing by who joined the minion and between mir hamarev there was a few minutes and i heard them speaking to each other and saying all about they're raving about a certain restaurant in town a kosher restaurant and i was very surprised so i've already became friendly with the president of the show so i go over and i say you have a kosher restaurant in this town you barely have a minion and this is it president says to me of course we actually have two kosher restaurants in town and i was very surprised who supports these restaurants you barely have a minion he says what are you talking about we have five different minions in this town but all of them are pretty much the same very weak so i asked them tell me how is it possible what's going on here explain to me and he says if you have to know of you must know i'll tell you about a hundred years ago came a very important rabbi to this town and he opened up the first real big yeshiva in america many guitar your soul studied there the scheinberg and many others but the balabatim in town and the union of the didn't like him they didn't get along because he run it wanted to raise the bar of srita and they weren't happy about it so they made his life miserable for 17 years it peaked and purim when they sent them mishloch what was in that mishloch live rats and the rabbitson opened it and she lost it literally she was hospitalized until the day she died that was the straw that broke the camel's back and at that point that rabbi got up and he said i'm out of here in this town in this town torah should never flourish and he moved his yeshiva to ohio we're not going to mention exact locations and exact names of the shiva the yeshiva is still around until today and the president of the show tells me in fact since then torah has never flourished in this town and it's been 75 77 years and he keeps telling me that you know a few years ago we tried to go to this rabbi's grave to ask michila to ask for his forgiveness but it was a cold winter day it was a sunday people don't work so we figured we'll get ten men but then came the blizzard of 2006. it was so much snow we couldn't get the minion we only got eight guys so we never got to ask him so i told him you know i'm here for another week and a half or so get eight guys yourself and me we'll have ten let's do it don't wait for the winter it's not happening in the winter this was in the summer i was visiting here in connecticut and he says really you'll come you'll join us i said it will be a great suit for me so i wait a day and he doesn't give me a call two days three days four days a week and a half the day i'm about to leave i meet him and i say so what's going on he said i couldn't get the guys couldn't get the guys to come to the cave i couldn't get ten men to go and ask michelle armed with this information i go back to el tisor and i tell him the whole story and i asked him does this kehillah have to ask me this is obviously not the same people who hurt the rabbi seven years ago then rebel yashev wrote a letter and in the letter he writes al-pidin they're not mercury they're not obligated to go and ask because this is not the same people who offended the rabbis so many years ago however they should do everything in their power to go and ask me because from this kehillah came out such a bizayan such a disgrace to torah and if they do so hashem will immense hashem shower them with an abundance of spirituality will give them a spirit of kedusha and tahara many many blessings i sent this letter to the rabbi who was a new rabbi of that shul and a few months later hashem and shiva's albe thomas the following year they put flyers all over town and many people came to his grave to ask michila publicly they read the letter that i sent them from ravel yashif zaza they said pirkei tehilim and that was an unbelievable the following summer i go there again and i can't believe it 30 people show up to aminha in the middle of the you know afternoon of a summer day i thought maybe there's uh somehow in town something going on the following day is the same thing 30 40 guys and always on time and that was a big finish always on time a few days later i met the rabbi i said to him you know i'm the one who sent you that letter i'm so excited to see this is amazing so many people in dominion he takes me to his office and he shows me his calendar he says you see we only missed one minha a few months ago there was something going on in town we always have a steady minion usually 30 to 40 people and always on time it's just unbelievable the remarkable of the blessing of an adam goddard a couple years later i go there again suddenly there's barely a minion and i'm wondering what's going on the minion slowly dissolved and ultimately closed down that was the summer revel yoshi passed away it is the dispute between our rabbis in the medlish a blessing of an adam gador does it apply only while he's alive or even after he departs i said well at least i have one source to show the latter they show that after abu yoshif passed away unfortunately as if his baja didn't apply anymore but you see from this story both the koach tremendous strength that we have with our words words can kill and words can heal what do we choose to do with our words continuing with that theme of record of the blessing of great individuals a certain person from the states called me a few years ago it was a tuesday and he says i want to board the plane this evening to land in arizona tomorrow if you can get me into syria primeknives i want to get his blessing i said what's going on and he explained his daughter was very sick she had some she had something very very unique that the doctor said there's no cure for very rare one or two people in the entire world have it they did a series of tests and they all indicated that this in fact is what she has but there was one test left so he says to his daughter don't do the test wait i'm going to go to a tesor i'm going to get a bracha from kanyevsky and then you can do the test so he asks me can you get me in and i said a minute sasha he met hashem i will he boards the plane he lands the following day we go into the primeknives and i explained to him this yid came specially from the states just to get your blessing because his daughter is doing really really bad shape he explained the own the whole situation and he looks at him and he was in a special mood that day and he says to him if you grow a long beard your daughter will be okay this guy was clean-shaven so i look at him and i say do you accept this on yourself and he says yes so i say to the primeknives he accepts this on himself so abraham says so she will be okay so i was also in a special mood that day and i said what i normally don't say to the prime and i asked do you promise she will be okay and the prime answer in a way that he never answers and he says yes if she will if he will grow a beard his daughter will be okay amazing such confidence we go out the guy turns around and he goes back to the states sunday was the test the doctors told him he calls me on monday to report the doctor said this is an open miracle she doesn't have anything it went away open miracle fast forward a year and a half later he comes back down to the sword and he asks me to go into the ibrahimovsky again he wants to say thank you so we go into the time and i say rebbe if you remember a year and a half ago i brought this fellow his daughter was doing very very bad and you give him a blessing and you said if you'll grow a beer your daughter will be okay and that's exactly what happened he went back to the states she did the test and the doctors are saying the doctors are saying it's an open miracle so he came to say thank you before he had the chance to say thank you primeknivsky says why do you want to thank me thank latoya says it has nothing to do with me so i said well you did give the blessing and lucam says well the gemara says and don't let a blessing of a simpleton be unimportant in your eyes this is an example of the koyakadebu the strength that we have in our mouth because if you watch your mouth and you don't speak la shanhara and you don't say what you're not allowed to say and if you do say those things that you're required to say you use your words you use your mouth for kedusha and tahara for sanctity and purity gives you tremendous that when you give blessings to others they work i'll share with you a recent story that happened to me with the primeknivsky i have a dear neighbor his name is i asked him permission and he's very excited to share his story so i can share his name he was married for 21 years with no children 21 years imagine the pain about a year a year and a half ago he goes to the prime and he tells him a story and the prime says build the mikveh that is the asa that is the advice that hopefully will yield the desired results and it's a measure for measure you enable couples to have children you in return will have children so he raised six hundred and fifty thousand shekels that he didn't have he worked tirelessly and he was able to raise this money and bor hashem in a few months they are able to open a beautiful mikveh in a place called zohar about 40 minutes south of yerushalayim it was in the month of tamus and they asked me to go there and i spoke and it was very very exciting and that night his wife became pregnant nine months later she had a baby girl unbelievable but this is only round one wait this fellow itsukuri has a brother his name is neri nerikuli and he was married for 13 years no children so a month after it went to ibraheem and the prime told him to open up a mikveh he goes to the climate tells him i'm married 13 years and i don't have any children thinking abraham is going to say the same open up but looks at him and he says myself should be strict with my sin and he says but any dollar that comes in i write down and i'm very strict i give my myself money and abraham says i'm not talking about my so money i'm talking about thomas and my source giving time from from the fruits and says i'm also strict with that but repeats himself be careful with myself so this fellow goes to the store where he always buys his fruits and vegetables where he thought they're very strict with giving two more months but apparently they were not and he became very strict with it and within three weeks his wife became pregnant and she gave birth about a month and a half after her sister-in-law of after itseli had his daughter neri his brother had his son unbelievable in the mouth of the saddiqui to give a blessing but it doesn't end there it secretly shared with me that before his brother was married he lived by him for about half a year and at one point he looked at his older brother at itsek and he says to them you know it's first you and then me after i get married hopefully soon you should have children first and then i should have because it's only right you're older than me you're married already a bunch of you're about seven years at that time and you still don't have kids it's only right that you should have kids and then i should have them and it success what are you saying don't say that don't talk like that don't say that and he says no it's only right first you and then me look at that he opened his mouth he had to endure 13 years of not having children the koyak of adibu recently a widow shared with me that five years ago she went along with her husband late husband to a lawyer to write a will and the lawyer apparently not the sharpest knife in the drawer asks them so how long do you think you're going to be around for and her husband says ah max five years and she thought it's a joke so she left as the lawyer did and exactly five years later at 85 he was taken don't open your mouth and say things that you're not supposed to say we have to use our mouths for encouraging others for giving compliments for learning toyota for davening for saying for words of kedusha words of taharah words of sanctity words of purity khalid not to say anything negative not to say loshon not the cheat and lie we have such amazing kawak in our mouths we have to make sure we use it in the right way you know says that if one speaks losh aside for the grave sin that he's involved in after all tell us that that's the reason the second base that we still mourn its destruction was destroyed because of this terrible sin of loss of hatred and has the weight corresponding to the three cardinal sins that destroyed the first beta mikdash and the first base of midash came back after 70 years the second still didn't and it's two thousand years says the time other than the aveira other other than the transgression of saying los angeles if one speaks slash on he shows he demonstrates with his actions that he does not yearn and he doesn't anticipate the building of the beta mignash in the coming of mashiach because if that's what's holding the mashiach from coming how can you be involved in los angeles it shows that you're not really looking forward you dive in every day three times a day and you say bring us back again in you shalom and see the glory of the shrine in your life with beta mikdash but how can you speak which delays and prevents the geulah we as parents as teachers as friends we are dealing with neshamus we are dealing with jewish souls and as such few good words can influence our kids our friends our spouses in such a good way and a few negative words can destroy a person we can become doctors doctors heal we can heal others with our words we are all doctors we are here for a mission and our mission is to help others the brits are velocity says that his father represent used to say that we are here in order to help others that's why we were created let's try to accept on ourselves that there shouldn't be even one day that passes by that we don't give some words of encouragement compliments praises to someone whether it's our spouse our children our friends it doesn't make a difference people that we meet along the way you don't know what it can do remember the first story richard with the bubble forever 50 years later he sees an entire army that he himself created with a few words 50 years before if we use our mouth in the proper way hakude shiboku gives us such such strength to build to create to decree and immerse hashem hashem is as if forced to fulfill those decrees as we said before people who cause others to learn cause others to do the right thing it is counted as if they themselves are involved in that mitzvah and therefore we close as we started this marvelous organization hazak that teaches others torah so many facets it's a conglomerate what they do is just unbelievable so many things that they're involved in with one goal in mind to spread torah worldwide and to increase awareness to empower others to love ribena walking in the path of hashem we say every single day hashem has mercy upon all his creatures we are commanded to walk in hashem's way in fact the eighth positive mitzvah that counts in his count of 613 meters is walk in hashem's ways emulate him he has mercy upon all these creatures we should feel the same we should do the same and therefore if one supports hazak give hazak.com and if one supports chickens for shabbos chickens for shabbos dot com he is involved and gets all those merits and he means hashem our lot should be with them you
