Yom Chamishi, Tevet 19, 6003 – December 27, 2018
Welcoming Wisdom
To be welcoming of something is to be accepting of something. It is the receiving of something. Ultimately when we receive something, it is a gift. Whether we feel we have earned something or not, something received means someone had to give it up or surrender it. It only seems reasonable then to be thankful when it is something good. In the case of wisdom, it is almost by definition something good. In Hebrew, there is a type of wisdom that is referred to not just for things like administration, but also in the skillfulness of war. Here is one scripture where we find this word, chokmah (wisdom).
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.
Today, we can be thankful that our Father gives us the wisdom we need for spiritual warfare and for the administration of life in general. We can be thankful that we have a path to follow that is well lit by the light of our Father.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here in the hearts and minds and bodies of the people. Let Your will be done here perfectly as it is in heaven. Send us now Your provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Wipe away all thoughts and memories of the evil done to us or by us. Deliver us from the evil in the atmosphere around us, and within us. In their place let there be only thoughts and memories of You and Your love for us. Restore us Father. Restore us unto You. Restore all that the worm has eaten. Restore one thousandfold all that the enemy has taken or held back of that which is called good, and the more besides. Send in quickly the $423,523,962.53 that we might use it to promote the kingdom of YAH in the hearts and minds and bodies of the people. We ask all these things of You, Father Yahuah, in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMoshiach. Amen.
