It Will Be Okay

In the hustle and bustle of daily life, we can get to the point where we feel like we cannot only not take on anything more, we struggle to carry the existing load. When this happens for my wife, mostly she just wants to hear me say, “It will be okay.” She says she knows it is true, she just needs to hear it from me. It can be that way, too for us with our Father. We can “hear” Him give us comfort by reading the scriptures, especially if we read them aloud.

Psalms 127:1 Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.
2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

If we can just read scriptures and believe their message, we can feel our Father’s presence and comfort.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are our King! Praise the name Yahuah! Let us be Your lights in a dark world. Send us now Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our sins. Our hearts cry out with past hurts, and our minds the same. Heal us and deliver us. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundred times one hundredfold that which has been taken or held back in any way. Bring us out of bondage, Father. We love you. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

Beginning At The Beginning

Recently I have been considering something unusual. As I go into Genesis, I notice something.

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

Several things stood out. One in particular was the reference to the days by number only The more I think about this reference, the more it seems important. Sometime in the future I believe I will begin to reference things according to the scripture’s method of referencing.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are our King! Bless the name Yahuah! Let us be Your representatives to this world. Send us now Your abundant provision. Forgive us our sins. We need Your help. Help us Father. Deliver Your people. Restore us to greater than at the Exodus. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

Comfort With Promise

Our Father never leaves or forsakes us. Period. We can take this great gift and just meander through life with it. Or, we can decide that this is a great gift, and we want to demonstrate how thankful we are by the our actions in our life. If we are willing to try to do the will of our Father as contained in His commandments, we can say thank You with what we do. And we will also receive a blessing.

Deuteronomy 28:1 And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:
2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God.
3 Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field.
4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.
5 Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store.
6 Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out.

We can receive a blessing. We will receive a blessing if we remember to ask and seek our Father.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King! Praise the name Yahuah! Let us be Your light in this world. Send us today Your overwhelming provision such that we cannot contain it. Forgive us our sins. Heal our hearts and minds. Deliver us from evil that steals and destroys. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundred times one hundredfold all that has been taken, held back, or in any way restricted from Your people. Rise up King, and do a miracle today. We need You. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

Good News Is Here

Often we as believers think that the good news of salvation began when Yeshuah (Jesus) showed up. If we again look at Psalms 96, only a different version, we see something different.

Psalms 96:1 Oh, sing to the Lord a new song!
Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Sing to the Lord, bless His name;
Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.

Here we see declaring His glory translated as proclaiming the good news. This proclaiming the good news is more literal in another location in scripture.

Nahum 1:15 Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace! O Judah, keep thy solemn feasts, perform thy vows: for the wicked shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off.

Here the bringing of good tidings is the good news of salvation in the Hebrew. The way we get that is by keeping the solemn feasts, and doing what we say we will do. That keeps the wicked from being able to pass through us, and the wicked is destroyed.

Looks like to proclaim the good news of our Messiah Yeshuah, we have to keep the feasts.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King! Praise the name Yahuah! Let us be lights in the earth. Send us now Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our sins. Heal up our hearts and minds. Restore unto Your people beyond what could be imagined or held, such that it overflows in waves to those around us. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

Changing Lives

Today in America many reflect on the cowardly acts of terrorists that have attacked us. For me, I am saddenned that somehow mankind has slipped so far that we have people filled with that much hate. What if we could channel all that energy for good? How might the world change? Can we really do that? The answer is, we were supposed to do that from the beginning.

Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

So we have been given a ministry of controling the earth. Now we just have to work on the “for the good” part.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are our King. Bless the name Yahuah! Let us change the world for good. Send us now Your overwhelming abundant provision. Forgive us our sins. Heal up our hearts and minds. Deliver us from the evil that steals and destroys. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundredfold that which has been taken or held back. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

King Of Comfort

At times in our walk with our Father, we just need to be comforted. Not that we do not need to learn to stand strong. Just that we need to understand that we do not always have to be strong. We can rely on Him and His strength to see us through. We need only cry out to Him and He will raise us up.

Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

So today, let’s be comforted in knowing that we have a Father that cares for us. He lifts us up.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are our King! Praise the name Yahuah! Let us usher in Your kingdom in this earth. Send us now Your overwhelming provision such that we cannot contain it all. Forgive us our sins. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundredfold that which has been taken of held back. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

We Can Learn

We can learn to better at following our Father. We may have thought that if we face the same struggles over and over, then that is just as good as it gets. Perhaps, but I do not think that is true. For example, I believe God will lead us to decision points. Then we learn from the choices we made what those results look like. From there, we need to struggle to be aware of the need for change. If we can maintain that awareness, then it is likely that we can fight through. We need to create a system of support for improving. It is that system that can be the tool that God uses to help us advance.

Deuteronomy 4:5 Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as the Lord my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it.
6 Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.
7 For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the Lord our God is in all things that we call upon him for?

We must try to be the people that our Father has asked us to be. We can do this by staying true to His commands. We canstay true to them by focusing on them diligently.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King! Praise the name Yahuah! Let us be the ones that bring Your will to this earth. Send us now Your overwhelming provision such that we cannot contain it. Forgive us our sins. Heal up our hearts and minds with Your words. Deliver us from the one that steals and destroys. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundredfold that which has been taken of held back. We need Your mercy and Your love today and always. You are our only hope. We ask You deal with us according to Your mercy and loving kindness, and remember our transgressions no more. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

Always A Chance

When we take our time we can actually see God moving. There is never a place in our life where there is not a chance for life to be better. That is just the God we serve. He longs to give us good things.

James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

Let us live in the comfort of know that our Father is always watching over us.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are Kin! Praise the name Yahuah! Let us bring Your kingdom to this earth. Send us now your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our sins. Deliver us and heal us. Help us today in a mighty way, Father. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundredfold that which has been taken or held back. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

Each Day Is Another Chance

In life when we can let things stack up on us. When we do, change can seem overwhelming. The dishes, the yard, the kitchen table, all of these can present challenges if we look at them from the past. By that I mean if we look at them like we are on a path that is dictated by past failure, we can be overwhelmed. But that is just when we need to set these thoughts aside and remember that we serve a very big God. He is the Creator of everything. He is able to do far above what we ask or think. We need to ask Him to help us anew.

Lamentations 3:22 It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
24 The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
25 The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.

When we see things without the trail of the negatives of the past, they become possible to accomplish We are meant to have this view, and our Father will help us with all He gives us to do.

We CAN accomplish what we are given to do.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King! Praise the name Yahuah! Let us bring Your kingdom to the earth. Help us to not feel overwhelmed, but be victorious. Send us Your overwhelming provision now such that we cannot contain it. Forgive us our sins. Heal us and deliver us from the thief that steals and destroys. Restore unto us Your people one hundred times one hundredfold that which has been stolen or held back. Release the wealth and prosperity to Your people. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

Knowing There Is An Answer

Questions and/or questioning can be a steady part of the state of mind of us as believers. When we are in the questioning state with doubt, that doubt can be magnified greatly. Questions with doubts do not feel good and are not a comfortable place to be. This condition can leave us not deciding what to do when we need to make a decision.

James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.

This same verse shows the other side. When we ask in faith, our Father responds with answers. These answers may come instantly, or they may come over time, but they will come. Questions can be good, if they are asked with a knowing that our Father is there for us.

Today, as we observe the world around us, let us keep our heads up, knowing that our Father is there to comfort us and to bring us home.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. Praise the name Yahuah! You are our King! Let Your kingdom come to earth through us. Help us to be strong that we might do Your will. Send us now Your overwhelming provision. Heal us and deliver us. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundredfold that which has been taken or held back. Overwhelm our barns with goods. Let each of us be overwhelmed with an outpouring of Your Spirit, and of plenteous goods that cannot be contained. Help us become a storehouse for Your power and sustenance. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.
