Great Truths

We believers are a most fortunate people. Imagine being turned loose in a foreign land. THere are few things around you that look familiar, and you seem alone. The language and customs of the land are far different from what you had hoped. Then suddenly you receive a collection of writings and letters that are really an invitation from the King of the land. He has been away on a journey for some time and He has given you this written material that You might stand out from others. It contains detailed instructions from Him that if you follow them will not only cause you to stand out, but will mark you as His ambassador, with all of the accompanying benefits and challenges. That is us, the King is our Father Yahuah (Lord), and He has given us the Torah and other scriptures for that very purpose.

Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
11 For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.

Today, as I go about my daily routine, I will be thinking about this passage. Yahuah (Lord) loves us, His people, and is always prepared to give us what we need. He is always prepared to defend us and keep us for Himself.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are our One True King. The whole creation cries out for Your kingdom to be returned to our land. We praise Your name Yahuah (Lord). Send us now Your overwhelming provision, manifested to the full. Forgive us our failures to do as You have asked. Lead us and guide us onto You paths of mercy, truth, wisdom, and understanding. Heal our hearts. We are saddened by the evil. Deliver us and the land from the evil. Deliver us with a strong hand and outstretched arm from those that would take from us what You have provided that all men might know that it is You alone that has done these things. We ask all this in Yeshua’s (Jesus’) name. Amen.
