Walking With Our Father
For many of us there was someone growing up that made us feel comfortable to be around, safe from harm. For me that was my parents. It seemed that we would be okay, if we all just stayed around each other. For some that may not be the case. But with our heavenly Father, it is most assuredly true. He has provided for us a way to walk in and if we walk in that way, trusting in Him, then life works out. Our Father wants good things for us, which is why He has given us His commandments, and it is why He sent His Son, Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) to die for us. We can know that He has chosen good for us and asks us to walk in that goodness that He has provided.
Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
If we choose to walk with our Father, we choose life. And we can walk in His ways for He has given us the strength to do it.
Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Our life with our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus) is one of peace and fulfillment if we will hear his voice.
John 10:2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
We need to spend time with Yeshuah (Jesus) to learn to hear His voice. Our Father has made Yeshuah our Mediator. When we spend time with the Father and with our Messiah, we can learn to trust in His goodness and mercy toward us.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are King. We bless Your name Yahuah! Today, I cry out to You for myself, my family and friends, and all the people of the earth, that we might see Your kingdom. We need You here now. Send us today Your abundant provision. We thank You for forgiving our sins. We thank You for providing for our families. We need an abundant blessing Father. We need it soon. You are our only hope. You are our only King. Heal us and deliver us. We aask these things in the name of Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.
