Yom Chamishi, Sivan 1, 6003 – May 17, 2018
Sacrifice Of Thanksgiving
This morning as I think of the many, many blessings that Yahuah (Lord) has granted to me and to my family, I am overjoyed with a peace that is hard to explain. It has always been true that we were meant to commune with Yahuah (Lord). This morning I read a scripture that began to describe what I was feeling, and the desire that is within me.
Psalms 117:1 O praise the Lord, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people.
2 For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the Lord endureth for ever. Praise ye the Lord.
After reading this short chapter in Psalms, I backed up a chapter and found something even more compelling and a perfect fit.
Psalms 116:12 What shall I render unto the Lord for all his benefits toward me?
13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord.
14 I will pay my vows unto the Lord now in the presence of all his people.
15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.
16 O Lord, truly I am thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds.
17 I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the Lord.
18 I will pay my vows unto the Lord now in the presence of all his people,
19 In the courts of the Lord’s house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye the Lord.
As I read this scripture it began to open up to me the importance of the words that come out of our mouth. Praise YAH!
Prayer
Father we exalt You. You alone are our King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here in the hearts and minds of mankind. Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Let Your kingdom come in this earth. Send us today Your overwhelming provision, that it might overflow to those around us. 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. Father Yah, there are so many things in this world and this life that are distractions from serving You and being like You. We need Your help to overcome these things. We need Your help to love one another. We get it wrongs sometimes. Please forgive us. Help us to get things right. Help us to have unity in the body of believers here. Restore unto Your people all the good that has been eaten, taken away, or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. Send in quickly the $423,923,962.53 that we might use it to promote Your kingdom here. We love You, YAH! Only You can make these things so. 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.
