Waking Up To New
This morning as I write looking into the green forest behind my home, I can here our two roosters calling out to everyone that the sun has been up for a while. Thinking about how they crow each morning, I thought about how it announces a new day. Scientists say it is about announcing their territory. But they start their day like this everyday. It does not matter what the previous day brought to them. Each day they treat as a brand new beginning. It encouraged me to think that we can do this as well, if we will try.
Lamentations 3:21 This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
22 It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
24 The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
25 The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
26 It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the Lord.
Our morning prayers and hope in Yahuah (Lord) is our morning call, our morning crowing, demonstrating that we believe we have a new day. We need not consider our past – yesterday, last week, last month, last year – they are not here now. What is here is today. This day.
Psalms 118:24 This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
25 Save now, I beseech thee, O Lord: O Lord, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.
26 Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the Lord: we have blessed you out of the house of the Lord.
Today let us wake up to a new day, come in the name of Yahuah (Lord), and let him send us prosperity.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name Yahuah! Send us now Your overwhelming provision and prosperity. Forgive us our sins. Heal up our hearts and minds. Deliver us from the thief. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundredfold. We ask these things in the name of our Messiah Yahuah (Jesus). Amen.
