The Balance
We are called to maintain a balance in our life. It is not like the balance that we might think, as if everything in life has the same weight. The balance is to weigh everything against our life in God. If we maintain that correct perspective, then we will have the ability to balance the rest of the load. It is almost as if the pivot point of the balance is the scriptures, the Torah. If that is maintained within us, the rest of the load is self leveling. How it works is not completely clear to me, except to say that God is in charge. He makes it work out.
Psalms 138:1 I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.
2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.
3 In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.
4 All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O Lord, when they hear the words of thy mouth.
5 Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the Lord: for great is the glory of the Lord.
6 Though the Lord be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.
7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.
8 The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.
Yahuah (Lord) will reach inside us to set the balance of our souls aright, if we will seek him and keep His commands.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. You alone are worthy to be praised and we praise and bless the name Yahuah! Let this land be home to Your kingdom. Dispel the darkness. Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Help us, Father. We need You. We need Your forgiveness from our sins. We need Your love, Your healing, and Your deliverance from those that would steal what You have provided. Move in a strong way and help us today. In Yeshua’s (Jesus’) name. Amen.
