Your Daily Slice

 


TEVET 2

Hanukkah 8th Night

 

 

“After this the Feast of DEDICATION [of the reconsecration of the temple] was taking place at Jerusalem. It was winter …” (John 10:22 AMPC, emphasis mine)

 

“And יהוה commanded us to do all these laws, to fear יהוה our Elohim, for our good always, to keep us alive, as it is today.  And it is righteousness for us when we guard to do all this command before יהוה our Elohim, as He has commanded us.’’  (Deu 6:24-24)


 

Thank You, Father, that as I wait upon You, my strength is renewed like the eagles’.  I lift up my eyes to the hills, for my help comes from Yahweh, the Creator of heaven and earth.  You are a very present help in the day of trouble, and You deliver me from the evil one.  I shall stand still and see the salvation of my Elohim; You, Yahweh, will fight for me, and I shall hold on to my shalom, my peace.  Thank You, Yah, for the armor that I wear, for it comes from Your hands.  In You I rest, for no weapon formed against me shall prosper, nor shall any tongue rise successfully in judgment against me.  This is my heritage as Your servant, and my righteousness is from You.

 

You are my refuge and my high tower, my shield and my buckler, my hiding place.  You have promised, Abba, that when I take up permanent residence in the secret place of the Most High, I will always be covered by the shadow of the All-Mighty, the El-Shaddai, the All Sufficient One.  I abide in the Vine, Master, for You are the Vine.  My union is with You, and in You.  You cover me with Your feathers, and under Your wings I am secure.

 

You keep me in perfect shalom, perfect peace, because my mind is stayed on You, my Sar Shalom, my Prince of Peace. You anoint my head with oil, and my cup runs over.  I delight myself in You, for You are the desire of my heart.  You have redeemed me, You have called me by my name, I am Yours.  You are my Master, my Creator, and to You do I yield.  Your will be done, Abba, always.  I must decrease, that You may increase.  Thank You, Yah, that You are perfecting everything which concerns me, in me, and through me.  I have set my mind on things above, not on things of this earth, and I look to You, the Author and Finisher of my faith.  I know that You are faithful to complete that which You have begun in me.

 

I give You my heart, I give You my life, You are Yahweh my Elohim, my all.  May Your will be done first in me, as I yield myself to You, then on earth as it is in heaven.  Even so, come quickly, my Master, my Messiah …
