Yom Shlishi, Elul 2, 6003 – August 14, 2018
All Together
It takes all of us working together to make it to the end. As it turns out, we face certain challenges based on our drive in life to get to the end. We must drive towards a goal to reach it. If we lose sight of our goal, we will end up somewhere else. We must stay on track with our goal to make it to the end. We will drive towards the goal we envision – our inner pilot will just steer in that direction. If we are all going towards the same goal, then we will most certainly make course corrections for one another. And like in racing cars or bikes, we will draft off of each others’ efforts, making it easier over all for all of us.
Hebrews 2:9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
10 For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
11 For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,
12 Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee.
A portion of the “we” that we are a part of is our Messiah, Yeshuah. He took on Abraham and not angels so that He could be the high priest He needed to be to make reconciliation for us. While salvation of the body, heart, and mind is individual to each person, there is also a certain element of this that is about all of us together. It is important that we are all in this together.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your will be done here perfectly as it is in heaven, with Your kingdom coming here in the hearts and minds of mankind. We need You here, Father. Send us Your provision that we need today, Father. 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 all thoughts and memories of the evil done to us or by us. In their place let there be only thoughts and memories of You and Your love for us. Restore the hearts of Your people unto You, Father. It is easy for us as humans to stray from the target. Help us stay on track. Restore one thousandfold all the good that has been taken or held back in any way from Your people, Father, and the more besides. Restore all that the worm has eaten. Send in quickly the $423,923,962.53 that we might use it to promote the kingdom of God in the hearts and minds and bodies of those that need You. We ask all these things of You, Father, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiak. Amen.
