Yom Ri-shon, Marcheshvan 29, 6002 – November 19, 2017
Comfort In The Cold
This morning as I was contemplating how only weeks ago my family and I were on the west coast, the fall leaf pallet out my back patio doors were a reminder of my presence now in the Midwest. Being older I sometimes find the cold weather a bit of a challenge. And yet, there was a certain comfort in the cold weather. That comfort came as a result of knowing that our Father, YAH, is with us everywhere. And he is on our side, performing His words that He has spoken.
Psalms 147:15 He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.
16 He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.
17 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?
18 He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
19 He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.his word: Heb. his words
20 He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the Lord.
Today, we can take comfort, even in the cold here, knowing our Father is watching over us to set the world right.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King! Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here. Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Wipe away all the thoughts and memories of the evil done to us or by us. In their place let there be only thoughts and memories of You. Heal up our hearts and minds that our mourning might be turned into joy. Deliver us from the evil here, and give us strength to resist. Restore unto Your people one thousandfold all the good of relationships, lands, monies, gold, silver, precious jewels, honor, authority, and possessions, and the more besides. Rise up, O King, and raise up Your people, setting us on high in the gates, that all men might know that You alone have done this. You alone are God! We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). We ask all these things of You, Father, in Your name YAH! Amen.
