Just as carrying Child

Shabbat Shalom from Kent, London- 24Jan25

Just as carrying Child

Fathers play a vital role in a child's life, contributing significantly to their development and well-being. Emotional, social, cognitive, exploration support, physical activities, promoting values, teaching beliefs, helping to build self-esteem and resilience are the some of areas where Father plays an important role.

When I compared this Father-Child relationship with The Lord-Moses partnership, it marvels me to check how deep the God is thinking about us and working for us, for greater good. Amen.

Wilderness journey from Egypt to Cannon is an unique, one of kind and organised by the Lord out of the Covenant made between God and forefathers.

Deuteronomy 1:31 CEVUK- [31] And you know that the LORD has taken care of us the whole time we've been in the desert, just as you might carry one of your children.

Why God is ready to carry us?

  • Because of the covenant that He made with Abraham (Abram) which served as a foundation for God's relationship with the Israelites and provided the framework for His guidance and protection.
  • God chose them first and showed His mercies and His Love. While the Israelites often faltered in their faith and obedience, God remained faithful to His promises. Their faith, however imperfect, played a role in God's decision to continue guiding and supporting them.

How did He carry will amaze and encourage us to remain faithful by His Grace.

  • Introduction and protection from 10 devastating plagues, each designed to demonstrate His power and pressure Pharaoh to release the Israelites.
  • God guided the Israelites through the complexities of their escape, instructing Moses and preparing them for the journey ahead. He provided them with the necessary resources and support to navigate the challenges they faced.
  • Calling Moses to gather Israelites, preparing for Exodus, Equipping them for Wilderness journey, Helping to overcome challenges on the way,  listening to the intercession of Moses for not to destroy them, Providing food, water, meat, favour, protection and Success. The big list of stayovers mentioned in Numbers 33. Final reminders through Moses in Deuteronomy and arranging the transition to Joshua are the incidents emphasising His care for generations to come.
  • Pillar of Cloud and Fire conditioned the desert for them and acted  as a constant guide, leading them by day and night. Their clothes did not wear out, and their feet did not swell during the 40 years of wandering.
The Israelites' journey through the wilderness serves as a powerful illustration of God's paternal love. Like a devoted father who tirelessly meets his children's needs, God provided for the Israelites in every conceivable way, showcasing the profound depth of His care and commitment.

Hence Apostle encouraged us, For we did not receive a spirit of slavery that returns you to fear, but we received the Spirit of adoption to sonship, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!”

Peace be upon The State of Israel and Us.🙏
Shalom. 🙏🙏
Have a Good weekend too.
In His Grip...🙏🙏🙏

Boldness

Boldness Reference: Heb 4:12-16 We do not have to tiptoe toward God. We can always enter His presence—not only when in need, full, or facing challenges. His Word pierces soul and spirit, joints and marrow. He knows our thoughts and intentions before we ask or think. So the author of Hebrews urges us: boldly approach the throne of Grace. Receive daily bread, seasonal help, mercies, and Grace He has already arranged. In time of need, at the right time, He will help us. As Peter assured, submit obediently in His hand. Confidence: Not because the week went well. Not because your prayers feel mature. Because the curtain tore. Confidence isn't arrogance. It's knowing God left the door open.  The barrier didn't get thin—it split wide open. The King on the throne is also our High Priest. He knows our weakness from the inside. We are not interrupting Him. We have been invited. Gentle invitation. Urgent invitation. If Grace finds us and fills the room, what happens to the pressure to...

The Lifestyle of David - Faith, Trust and Prayer

The Lifestyle of David - Faith, Trust and Prayer Reference - 1 Sam 17, Ps 59 and 2 Sam 15 David was known as a man after God’s own heart, as witnessed by God Himself. The Bible reveals many reasons for this, but one of the most notable is his unwavering faith—trusting God completely and placing all his hope in the One who is more than able to guide him. I would like to discuss three scenarios and observe his responses to inspire our faith and draw us closer to Him. 1) When the Israelite army fled from Goliath, David stood his ground, boldly declaring the giant’s defeat before the fight even began, trusting entirely in the Name of the Lord rather than physical weapons. With a single stone, David struck Goliath down, vindicated God’s Name, routed the Philistine army, and proved to all that the battle belongs to the Lord. He proclaimed victory before the clash, relying not on spear, sword, or javelin, but on the Lord’s power. David said, in 1 Sam 17:45-47, “You come against me with sword,...

Prayer is tactical, transactional and transformative practice in the Bible.

Yes, prayer in the Bible is indeed **tactical**, **transactional**, and **transformative**. Each of these aspects highlights a different dimension of prayer, showing its depth and power in the life of a believer. Let’s explore these three dimensions with biblical examples and insights: --- ### **1. Prayer is Tactical** Prayer is a **spiritual weapon** and a strategic tool in the believer’s life. It is used to engage in spiritual warfare, seek God’s guidance, and advance His kingdom. - **Biblical Example**: **Ephesians 6:18**     Paul instructs believers to "pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests." This is part of the "armor of God," showing that prayer is a tactical weapon in spiritual battles.    - **Application**:     Prayer is not passive; it is an active, intentional practice to combat evil, break strongholds, and bring God’s will to earth. It is a way to align ourselves with God’s strategies and overcome th...
