Yom Shishi, Tishri 27, 6004 – September 27, 2019
Up Side
This morning after receiving a text from a friend talking about having an opportunity come back around that they had missed earlier, something new occurred to me. Today is an answer to a prayer that was prayed in the past. That seems like an obvious thing, but I realized that I had never really thought of it like that. I would likely also add it is the result of blessings and curses that we have brought upon ourselves, mixed in with attacks of the enemy. I am bringing this all up as a result of that text, and something else. I am experiencing what I can only describe as the upside.
Daniel 10:5 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:
6 His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
7 And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.
8 Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.
9 Yet heard I the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward the ground.
10 And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.
11 And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.
12 Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.
13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
This is the upside, when YAH sends His messengers and we get to experience the positive responses.
Perhaps if we can come to understand this time between the ask and answer, we can be at peace, knowing we are living on the upside.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King. Praise the name YAH! Praise the name YAH! Let Your praises be sung by all. Let Your kingdom come here in the hearts and minds and bodies of the people. Let Your will be done here as it is perfectly 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. Deliver us from the evil here. Help us resist temptation. Restore unto Your people all the substance and prosperity that has been taken or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. We ask all these things of You Father King in the name YAH Yeshuah HaMashiak. Amen and Amen. Amen.
