KISLEV 20
Call ME
“He will call on ME,
and I will answer him.” (Ps 91:15 CJB,
emphasis mine)
Some
years ago, we received a phone call, late in the evening, from our oldest
daughter. While on her way into town (40
miles away), she had blown a tire on her car, and, unfortunately, she had no
spare tire with her. Robin knew
immediately who to phone for help, had the assurance of who would come to her
assistance, and rescue her from the predicament that she was in. Her Daddy
is her ‘kinsman-redeemer’ (Ruth 3:12) by right of the blood relationship that
they have, and when she calls on him, her dad answers her. Occasionally he says ‘no’ to her requests,
but he always answers her.
Because
of the relationship we now have with our Abba Father (through our acceptance of
the complete and finished work of our Messiah Yeshua, as well as our obedience
to Elohim and His Word), Yahweh is our ‘kinsman-redeemer’, just as my husband
is to our daughter. We now have the
privilege of calling out to our Father, our Creator, our El-Shaddai, our Adonai Yir’eh,
and know that in some way, He will answer us.
That is His promise to
us. And He is not a man, that He should
tell lies (Num 23:19).
“In my distress [when seemingly closed in] I called
upon the Lord and cried to my God; He heard my voice out of His temple
(heavenly dwelling place), and my cry came before Him, into His [very] ears.” (Ps 18:6 AMPC)
