Yom Shi-shi, Adar 27, 6002 – March 16, 2018
Called To Win!
When a tragedy befalls someone, or a deadly disease, or some other terrible event, often we hear explanations that to the unbelieving make them not want to serve God. Or they might be less than flattering to God. This morning as I think about all of these different positions to take, and all of which I personally have taken at some point in my life, I question them. Here is something I find in scriptures, which I know must be true.
Dueteronomy 28:10 And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the Lord; and they shall be afraid of thee.
11 And the Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers to give thee.in goods: or, for goodbody: Heb. belly
12 The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.
13 And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:
14 And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.
This sure sounds like we are called to win! So what do we do to explain these situations? I have a suggested answer.
Nothing.
While I cannot speak for others, I can speak for me. I am not called to explain these things. But I am called to win. I will focus on that, speaking that truth, and helping anyone overcome any tragedy.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here in the hearts and minds of men. Let Your will be done here perfectly as it is done perfectly in heaven, and without fail forever! Send us now Your overwhelming provision that we might use it to help others as well as our own families. 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, int our hearts minds and actions, and in the hearts, minds, and actions of others. Restore unto Your people one thousandfold all the good that has been taken or held back in any way, and the more besides. Send in quickly the $424,523,962.53 that we might use it to promote the kingdom in the hearts and minds of mankind here. 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 of You in the name YAH Yeshuah. Amen.
