Yom Ham-i-shi, Tevet 30, 6002 – January 18, 2018
Thankful For Blessings
Recently a friend suggested that I consider joining him in a journey of thankfulness, reflecting on the past year. Setting aside the counting of time, it is always good, I think, to spend time in reflection on being thankful to out Father for all he has done for us. For me, I have four wonderful children and a wonderful wife. A dog that goes crazy when I come through the door. A piece of ground where I can raise food. Vehicles that are reasonably reliable. All in all, I have a wonderful life.
Psalms 103:1 Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
6 The Lord executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
7 He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
8 The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King! Praise the name YAH! Let Your will be done here, and let Your kingdom come here, as it is in heaven. Send us now Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Deliver us from the evil here. Wipe away our tears, and wash clean our hearts and minds. Let us think thoughts of only You, and have memories only of You. Deliver us from the evil here. Send in quickly the $424,523,962.53 that we might use it to spread the good news that You are on our side, that You never leave us or forsake us. Restore unto Your people seventy times seven all the good that has been taken or held back in any way, and the more besides. 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. We ask all these things in the name of YAH Yeshuah. Amen.
