Psalms 100

A Psalm of praise.
1 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands.
2 Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing.
3 Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
5 For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King! Praise the name YAH! Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Send us now Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Heal our hearts and minds. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore all that has been taken or held back in any way, and the more besides. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

Getting Out There

Sometimes in life we just have to get what we feel out in the open and tell people what we are feeling. One of the most important things to express is thankfulness. This writing here is dedicated to that very idea.

Psalms 107:1 O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;
3 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.
4 They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.
5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
6 Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.
7 And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.
8 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

Prayer
Father, we exalt You! You alone are King! Praise the name YAH! Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Wipe away the thoughts and memories of evil done to us or by us. Rplace them with only thoughts and memories of You, Father. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore unto Your people one hundredfold all that has been taken or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. Show us a sign for good that all men might know that You alone are God. 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. Amen.

Settle Down

This morning I awoke to my mind running a million miles an hour. I knew I wanted to focus on our Father, but the temptation to do otherwise was very strong. Grabbing that first cup of coffee, I sat down to write here, and to deliberately shift my thinking. That seemed to work. Looking back over the last four years or so, I can see how having a topic every day to consider has been a very present help to getting focused on the things of God.

Isaiah 26:3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
4 Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength:

I am so thankful now as I look back that I had this blog to turn to for a reference point in the past. And I am so thankful that our Father never left me by the wayside to flounder. He is always with us.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King! Praise the name Yah! Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Send us today, as You do everyday, Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Heal our hearts and minds. Wipe away all thoughts and memories of the evil done to us or that we have done. In their place let their be thoughts and memories of only You. Heal us from the inside. Heal our bodies. Restore one hundredfold all the good that has been taken or held back in any way, and the more besides. Rise up today, O King, and help us. Rise up and show Yourself strong on our behalf. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). We ask these things in Your name, Father, the name Yah. Amen.

Gratitude Is Attitude

Sometimes the best pay for a job well done is receiving a heartfelt “Thank you” from the person receiving the benefit of the work. I can think of a number of times at work or in interactions with others away from work when a boss or a new acquaintance said these words. Something happens on the inside that makes us want to do even more. Given that we are created in God’s image and likeness, I can only imagine that He has a similar response. And He is certainly worthy of the thanks.

Psalms 107:1 O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;
3 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.
4 They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.
5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
6 Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.
7 And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.
8 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
9 For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.

Let us remember today to thank our Father for all He has done, and then watch as He reacts with even greater ouutreach to us.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King! Praise the name Yahuah! Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Send us Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed and transgressed against us. Wipe away our thoughts and memories of evil done to us or that we have done. Replace these with thoughts and memories of only You. Deliver us from the evil here. So much has been taken from Your people that is the good You meant for us to have, or held back. Help us, Yah! Rise up and restore all these things one hundredfold, and the more besides. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). We ask all these things in Your name, in the name Yah we ask. Amen.

Revelation Changes The Heart

This morning I thought about how when things are revealed, good or bad, the heart changes. Sometimes this if for good, sometimes not. I see this in the scriptures.

Hebrews 10:20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
21 And having an high priest over the house of God;
22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

We have a way to cause our sins to be removed and no longer remembered. This is through the sacrifice of the body of our Messiah Yeshuah. Today, let us be thankful that our Messiah came and died for us that we might have our sins forgotten.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. Praise the name Yahuah! Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Wash away and completely remove any and all thoughts or memories of the evil that has been done to us or the evil we have done. We want to walk in forgiveness toward others. Deliver us from the evil that is here. Restore unto Your people one hundredfold all the good that has been taken or held back in any way, and the more besides. Rise up, O King, and heal and restore this day that all men might know that You alone are King, that You alone are God! We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

Welcomed Assistance

It is always good when we see that we are not alone. I had that experience today. There are so many areas where there is a fight going on in the spiritual realm. The battle is for control of people which is ultimately control of the world. There is a scripture that speaks to the need for us to stand together.

Psalms 133 A Song of degrees of David.
1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;
3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

Let’s be thankful that our Father blesses our lives when we are in unity.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are King! Praise the name Yahuah! Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Send us now Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed and transgressed against us. Heal us from the inside, and then heal our bodies. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore unto Your people one hundredfold all that has been taken or held back in any way, and the more besides. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

Thankful For The Signs

Here on our property we have had a number of miracles over the last few weeks. Our Father has made several plants give fruit literally overnight. This has occurred more than once. This has been a season of multiple blessings, the likes of which I have not experienced in my life before this year. We are very thankful that this has and is occurring. It is now expected that we will see the miraculous.

Psalms 100 – A Psalm of praise.
1 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands.
2 Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing.
3 Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
5 For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

Let us sing praises to Him and to His name today.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. Praise the name Yahuah! Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive all those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Wipe away all thoughts or memories of evil done to us, or evil we have done, that we might have thoughts and memories of only You, and that we might love one another with a perfect love. Drive the evil away from us. Heal us from the inside out. Show Yourself to be the One with power, authority, and owner of the kingdom. May You be glorified. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

Content With Thanksgiving

This morning as I pondered what God is doing in my life, I realized that no matter what I THINK about what is going on in my life, there is much to be thankful for every day.From my understanding all people desire to have life go a certain way. That is certainly true for me. Paul spoke about the need to be content in his letter to the Philippians.

Philippians 4:11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

Granted, it appears he was speaking about provision. But just a few verses earlier he presented the idea a bit differently.

Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

It seems that we can ask for anything from our Father. This morning I awoke and got into my head. It made me frustrated until I read these scriptures. As I meditated on them, I experienced the peace of God which passes what my mind can understand. It is good, I believe.

It looks like the path to pursue is to be simple and thankful.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name Yahuah! Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Help us all to completely forgive and completely forget, ourselves and each other. Help us to find unity in the body of believers. So many things have been taken or held back from us, Father. Today we cry unto You to restore that which has been taken or held back in any way, and the more beside. Let us be community people and community builders. Deliver us from the evil here, to Your glory in Your power, building the kingdom. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.

One More Chance

This morning I find myself thinking of how each day is one more chance to spend time in this earth with the Father doing His work. It is a simple thought really, but one not only brings me joy, it makes me thankful. I am thankful that I get another day to try to do His work better than ever. I am thankful that I get another day to lift my arms in praise. I am thankful that He is always with me.

Psalms 136:1 O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
2 O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endureth for ever.
3 O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever.
4 To him who alone doeth great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever.
5 To him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endureth for ever.
6 To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth for ever.
7 To him that made great lights: for his mercy endureth for ever:
8 The sun to rule by day: for his mercy endureth for ever:#to rule…: Heb. for the rulings by day
9 The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy endureth for ever.
10 To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn: for his mercy endureth for ever:
11 And brought out Israel from among them: for his mercy endureth for ever:

Thank You, Father.

Attitude Of Gratitude

This saying has been quoted many times in presentations that I have heard others make. It is a good thing to have a good attitude for sure. It is also a good thing to give thanks and praise to our Father for all that He has done, is doing, and will do for us. He never keeps a record of our wrongs when we ask for forgiveness.

Psalms 130:1 Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Lord.
2 Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
3 If thou, Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

Our Father provides for us, and that in abundance.

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.
7 The Lord shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.
8 The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
9 The Lord shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways.
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.
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:

How can we bw anything but be thankful to our Father for all He has done?

Psalms 108:1 O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.
2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
3 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
4 For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.#clouds: or, skies
5Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;
6 That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.

Today, let us return to Yahuah (Lord) our Father who made heaven and earth, and be thankful, singing His praises in all the earth.

Prayer

Send us today Your overwhelming provision, such that it overflows to those around us in need.

Heal with the oil of gladness what remains, filling the voids with the joy of our wholeness in You. Deliver us from all temptation and evil. Restore one hundredfold all the good things that has been taken or held back in anyway, and let that manifestation begin today. Let us see with our eyes this restoration, and that right quickly.
