Yom Shi-shi, Alul 15, 6002 – September 8, 2017
Making A Way
There is always a path for us to traverse as believers, a path set before us by our Father. We can choose to go down His path, or we can choose a different path. Moses had something to say about this choice.
Deuteronomy 30:16 In that I command thee this day to love the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the Lord thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
17 But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
18 I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it.
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:
20 That thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
We are free to choose. And yet, there is more to it. We have an enemy that tries to deceive us, that tries to pull us away from the path that the Father has laid before us. We know that we can choose either path, yet there is the war within us at times to choose the wrong way. Much of life is about learning to choose the Father’s path.
Today, let us say and sing praises to the Father.
Today, let us choose life!
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King! Praise the name YAH! Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Send us now Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Wipe away any and all thoughts of evil done to us or by us. Replace them with thoughts and memories of only You. Heal our hearts and minds thoroughly. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore unto Your people one hundredfold all that has been taken or held back in any way, and the more besides. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). We ask all these things of You, Father, in Your name, YAH! Amen.
