Enjoy Shabbat Prep Day Radio while you prepare for Shabbat today! Happy Prep Day!

I was reading Psalm 50 this morning and for the first time it struck me...

When we work for an income then we believe it is ours and we now have full say on what to do with it. We give Father our obligatory amount as an “offering” and the rest is ours. In actual fact, it still belongs to Father as everything belongs to Him.

It is like when a parent gives their todler money to buy a birthday present for the parent, as their child has no power to "earn" it. The child believes that they gave the gift from their own selves.

In actual fact, the parent gave the child the money so it was the parent's money. The only real impact the child has it to make a decision on what to do with the money they were given and then to spend it wisely. But ultimately, it is still the parent's money.

Hmm, or should I say "ultimately, it is still Father's money"???
?

Rev 18:4+5 came to mind this morning. It says:

And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, “Come out of her, my people, so that you will not be a partner in her sins and receive her plagues; for her sins (crimes, transgressions) have piled up as high as heaven, and God has remembered her wickedness and crimes [for judgment]".

I have two questions on that:
1. What does it mean to come out of her? Is it a physical move, a spiritual break, a break of dependence, etc.?
2. When should we come out? Is it only at that given time of the troubles or should we start breaking our dependencies earlier?

"But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin."

Hb 3

"And with them by their generations after the house of their fathers were bands of the host for war: six and thirty thousand: for they had many wives and sons."

1Ch 7

It's prep day y'all. ??

Thought for Today: Friday August 25:

Hope is not a granted wish or a favour performed; no, it is far greater than that. It is a zany, unpredictable dependance on YHVH, Who loves to surprise us out of our socks.

ELDERS

A prayer to use when elders are coming to pray for your healing

James 5:14-15 --- Jeremiah 17:14 --- Exodus 15:26 --- Ephesians 5:18 --- Romans 8:11 --- 2 Corinthians 4:15-16, 18 --- Isaiah 26:3 --- Proverbs 3:5-6 --- John 15:16

Healing Promise:
[Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the Name of Adonai. And the prayer of faith shall save the sick and Adonai shall raise him up and if he has committed sins, they shall be forgiven him] -- James 5:14-15.

Healing Prayer:
Abba, I will obey You by calling the elders of the church to come and pray over me and anoint me with oil in Yeshua’ Name, because I believe their prayer of faith will bring healing to me, as You have promised in Your glorious Word. Heal me my Adonai and my YHVH and I shall fully recover, for You are my praise. I believe Your healing promise Abba and I believe You are Adonai who heals me. Fill me afresh with Ruach HaKodesh, for I truly believe that He will give quickening life to my mortal body. I give You all my thanks my dear Abba! Let Your abundant grace in my life abound to Your glory, as You bring healing to me. I praise You that You are renewing my inner self day by day. Thank You Abba. Your truths enable me to look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen, for the things that are seen are temporal and the things that are not seen are eternal. Abba, I will keep my mind stayed on You and I will trust You, because I believe that You will keep me in perfect peace as I do so. I thank You with all of my heart. Indeed, I will trust in You with my whole being, my mind, body and soul, instead of leaning on my own understanding. In all my ways I will acknowledge You and I know You will direct my steps. Thank You my Adonai YHVH, my Healer. In the matchless Name of Yeshua I pray, Amen.
