Yom Chamishi, Shevat 17, 6003 – January 24, 2019
The Difference
There are so many things in life that become blessings for us that if we are willing to take just a few moments at least, we can stop and enjoy what has been done for us. It is this taking a moment to recount these blessings that can actually help us frame a much better day today. We can actually help ourselves to be happier and enjoy our lives more by simply being thankful. Even as I write this, I am experiencing this very thing for myself. It is easy to be distracted to what is missing rather than enjoying and being thankful for what we have. As I think about it, there was a time when we did not have the things we do have now. The only difference is time. We were willing to wait for those things which we have now to appear.
Psalms 30:10 Hear, O Lord, and have mercy upon me: Lord, be thou my helper.
11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;
12 To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone, You alone are King. We praise the name YAH! We praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here in the hearts and minds and bodies of the people, O King! Let it be as it is in heaven, where Your will is perfect and perfectly shown. Send us now, that overwhelming provision, that we 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. Wipe away, wipe away. Wipe away, 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, thoughts and memories of You, O King. Take away the evil, and lead us not into temptation. Restore Your people. Restore relationships. Restore all that the worm has eaten. Restore unto Your people one thousandfold all the good that has been taken or held back in any way, and the more besides, O King. Send in quickly the $423,483,962.53 that we might use it to promote the kingdom here in this earth. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah YAH Yeshuah HaMoshiach, and we ask them of You alone Father. Amen and Amen. Let it be so, Amen.
