Yom Ham-i-shi, Tevet 29, 6001 – December 29, 2016
Exhaustion And Thankfulness
For those that have competed in athletic events, this title makes perfect sense. When the event is over, and you have made it to the end, there is a definite feeling of exhaustion tied to satisfaction and a sense of just glad to have been there. This is also true of our walk. We may battle certain spiritual challenges, but we can feel that sense of satisfaction and thankfulness, just as David did.
Psalms 3:1 Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.
3 But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
4 I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.
7 Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
8 Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.
Today let us be thankful, even in our exhaustion. Our Father has already made us the winner.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King! Praise the name Yahuah! Let us be a part of Your plan to bring Your heavenly will to the earth. Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our sins. Cleanse and heal our hearts, minds, and soul. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundred times one hundred times one hundredfold all that has been taken or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. You are King! Rise up, O my King, and destroy the work of the evil ones. Confound their efforts to their frustration. Show in us that the impossible is possible with Yahuah (Lord) as our King! We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.
