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...🙏🙏🙏

At the altar, our destiny is altered

At the altar, our destiny is altered... Reference-  Job 37:23-24 MSG “Mighty God! Far beyond our reach!     Unsurpassable in Power and Justice!     It’s unthinkable that HE would treat anyone unfairly. So bow to HIM in deep reverence, one and all!     If you’re wise, you’ll most certainly worship HIM.” God is unfolding His story in His own way. The Sovereign and Supreme Ruler is in control of everyone, everything, and everywhere, and the accuser must seek His permission before acting against us. He sees us as His own, and we belong to Him just as He belongs to us. As Job said, God can do all things, and no purpose of His can be stopped (42:2). The Just and Righteous Judge – Our God is fundamentally just, and it’s unthinkable that He would treat anyone unfairly. His rule and governance are righteous, even if at times our eyes, ears, and hearts may not fully understand. The source of all wisdom and revelation is God , whose knowledge is complete unlike ...

God's way is the Power

God's way is God's Power Reference- 1 Cor 4:20 MSG -  God’s Way is not a matter of mere talk; it’s an empowered life!! In 1 Corinthians, Paul speaks to a divided church where some were proud, eloquent, and believed they were spiritually superior because of their words and wisdom. He contrasts this human pride with the true power of God, shown in the cross, in changed lives, and in the work of the Spirit, the God's Power. It’s an empowered life—God’s ways are the true power, not found in mere talk, endless words, idle chatter, or impressive responses built on layers of discussion. It is a life empowered by the power of His Spirit, the presence of the Holy Spirit. It is power that breaks chains, sets us free, anoints us, and creates new opportunities, fresh paths, flourishing streams, divine strategies, abundant life, and limitless expansion. Paul didn’t ask the Corinthians to be practical . It’s not about having everything, but about having Him alongside others. That’s why h...

Efforts that counts...

Efforts that counts... Reference- 2 Ch 17  Context: King Jehoshaphat was a seeker and follower of the God of his father and was obedient to HIM; he wasn’t like Israel (at that time, Ahab was ruling Israel). And God secured the kingdom under his rule, gave him a firm grip on it. And everyone in Judah showed their appreciation by bringing gifts. Jehoshaphat ended up very rich and much honoured. Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone - Apostle James in 2:17 Efforts that showed his intention to Seek and Keep Him: Sticking to the ways of Asa (his godly father). Rejecting Baal — non-conformity to the ungodly culture. Removing high places and Asherah poles. This is personal reformation — the king putting his own house in order spiritually. Efforts that enabled others to Seek and Keep Him: Building defences — not just military, but spiritual covering. Sending teachers throughout Judah with the “Book of the Revelation of God” (likely the Torah or existing OT Scriptures). ...
