Yom Ham-i-shi, Tevet 9, 6002 – December 28, 2017
When We Pour
There are those moments in our walk with our Father when we need to pour ourselves out to Him. It is a sense of overwhelming emotion from within that comes out in our speech. Its as if our thoughts build up and it fills our hearts until we naturally open our mouths to speak. Such a moment happened for many of us at the time we realized we needed Jesus (Yeshuah) to be our Savior and we confessed our sins, seeking forgiveness and His Lordship. Moments like this also happen when we consider all He has done for us and we want to say thank you. This thanks is often engulfed in praise.
Psalms 107:17 Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.
18 Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death.
19 Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses.
20 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.
21 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
22 And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing.
From David’s account here we see that God really delivers us humans from our own actions, and saves us. We see here, as has been true several times in this psalm, that David had that pouring forth experience, and he encouraged others to have it as well. Praising Yahuah (Lord) is a reasonable response to the understanding that our Father delivers us. We also see that declaring His works with rejoicing (such as praise) is a type of sacrifice. Our words are meant to be overflowing toward Him continually. And in the tough moments, just as in the good moments, there are spiritual forces all around. So, in those tough moments, if we will declare His works with rejoicing, the good angels are empowered and the victory becomes Yahuahs’ in our reality.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our king. Let Your kingdom come here. Let Your will be done here. Send us now Your overwhelming provision that it might overflow to those around us. We need Your deliverance from the evil here. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. We all need healing on the inside, Father. We all need to understand Your ways. We all need to pour out to You. We need to say thank You, and praise You for Your amazing works. We need to declare Your truth and Your righteousness to all mankind, and to all creation. Help us to be truly in Your image and likeness. Help us to love even the unlovely, for we are all unlovely left to our own. Restore unto Your people one thousandfold, and thousands of thousands, all the good that has been taken or held back in any way, and the more besides. Send in quickly the $424,523,962.53 that it might do great works in Your kingdom. Rise up, my King, and do mightily on our behalf. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). We ask all these things in Your name, Father, in the name of YAH. We ask all these things in the name of YAH Yeshuah. Amen.
