Good Morning Sabbath...
Father thank You for this new day, Your Day. We ask for Your Peaceful Rest. May we abide in You and refill our lamps with oil. As we look at The Words of Your Son, please give us wisdom. We ask this so we may show Your Glory. In Yeshua, Jesus Christ's Name. Amen. -Yeshua, Jesus Christ...He Gives Shalom. Shalom is a Hebrew Word that can be used as a greeting or to say goodbye. Shalom can be defined as : completeness, wholeness, or Divine Peace. I really like Divine Peace as the definition. Why Divine Peace you ask? Probably because this is the Peace that Jesus spoke to us. I can hear Yeshua, Jesus Christ, now in His famous words in John 14:27: "Shalom (Divine Peace) I leave with you, My Shalom I give you." We know Yeshua had to possess Divine Peace to deal with not only us as fallen humans, but also to go through what he did for us. We click on the news today and we are accosted with stories of war, unrest, weapons of mass destruction, political turmoil, riots, and every other miserable thing this world wants to push on us. It seems that there is no Shalom. Especially in the area of the Middle East, we see constant unrest. The irony of that is, this is where Our Savior actually spoke about giving "His Peace." While Jesus did tell us these things were coming, wars, rumors of wars, ect, it seems crazy that this is where the word "Shalom" is spoken more than anywhere in the world... Israel. If we take a look in John 12 we find Yeshua speaking with His Disciples. He tells them He is leaving, but that He Will Send Help. Jesus let us know in this story, He Will Not Leave Us Alone. Who will He Send To Help? The Holy Spirit of course. Isn't it just awesome how Jesus "keeps it real," shows us the True Reality of this world, but doesn't leave us without hope? Our Savior warns His Disciples, and us, of all the coming unrest we will face when He leaves, but He also explains to us that The Holy Spirit will be given as a Helper, Comforter, and Teacher of Truth. When a person is approaching their time to leave this world they usually make a will. A document that puts things in place for the loved ones that will still be here on this earth. The will usually explains what the person leaves, to whom it will be given, and states their "will" about what they want carried out after death. We can clearly see Our Savior setting Himself apart from the world and showing Himself Holy In His Will. The King doesn't will to His Disciples, or us, "things" such as jewels, houses, or money, but instead He Gives Us the one thing the world can't. He gives us Shalom. In order to have any kind of quality of life in this world we need peace. Money, possessions, expensive vacations, cars, more friends, and the such cannot bring us this peace. I am sure we have all found this out. In fact, most of these "things" only bring more headaches. That is why Jesus Gives Us His Shalom, His Divine Peace. It is His To Give and He Gives It Freely and Abundantly. The Divine in that Divine Peace is Him. Only He Can Give It and that's why He Holds The Title... Prince of Peace🔥. He Give Us This Divine Peace because He knows we have to live in a chaotic and fallen world on our way to be with Him again. Yeshua, Christ Our King, in His Infinite Wisdom and Goodness gave us what we we need most in this world. He didn't give "things", but rather He Gives His Disciples, and Us, the One Thing He Knows We Need The Most... His Divine Peace. The same Peace that He showed, lived with, and operated in while He Walked The Face of This Earth. The world is desperately searching for peace, but the world will not find it unless it turns to Him. As believers, by way of His Will, we have been given rights to this peace..."the peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7.)" May we all claim this Divine Peace, this Shalom today and help spread it to others in this world, especially those desperately seeking it. Jesus had an infinite amount of good things he could have left us, but to His Disciples, to us, and to anyone willing to Follow Him, He didn't give jewels, possessions, or anything we have to worry about, He Gives Us the opposite, something far better... His Shalom... His Peace! Prayer: Yeshua, Jesus Christ Our King, Thank You for Your Wisdom. Thank You for Your Goodness. Thank You For Giving Us The One Thing You Knew We Would Need More Than Anything In This World, Your Shalom. We Thank You For Your Divine Peace and we ask You to help us show it to others in this fallen world. Thank You For Your Peace, Your Way, Your Life, and Your Truth. Bless Your Holy Name. Please help us to cleanse ourselves, take possession of our inheritance that You Have Willed us, and Shine Your Light Throughout The Entire World. In Your Most Holy Name We Pray. Amen.
