We Can Move Forward
We are truly a blessed people. We have a Father in heaven that is perfect in every way. He gives to us many good things in this life. It is what any good father would do. This includes the ability to know and to understand, which is important for us to make it through this world. Paul mentioned this in his writings, to offer us encouragement.
Ephesians 1:15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,
16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,
20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,
21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,
23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
We are the body of our Messiah here on earth. We are raised from the death of sin. When we are faced with challenges from our enemy, we know that God is with us to provide the victory.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. We praise the name Yahuah! Send us today Your overwhelming provision. We long to serve You. Forgive us when we fail, when we sin. Heal and deliver us. Show Yourself strong on our behalf. In Yeshua’s (Jesus’) name. Amen.
