Our Willing and Generous Abba God

“He said to them, “Which of you, if you go to a friend at midnight, and tell him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread, for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him,’ and he from within will answer and say, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give it to you’? I tell you, although he will not rise and give it to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as many as he needs.

“I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.

“Which of you fathers, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he won’t give him a snake instead of a fish, will he? Or if he asks for an egg, he won’t give him a scorpion, will he? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?”” (Luke‬ ‭11:5-13‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Why do we need to be persistent in prayer when God is so willing to give good gifts to us?

God does everything under Heaven according to appointed times and seasons—a system of divine order.

While you are waiting for the time to arrive, He will prepare your heart and mouth to come into alignment with His plans, believing and speaking those things into manifestation.

So we pray persistently not because God is reluctant, but rather we are preparing ourselves for God’s appointed times and seasons.

Keep asking, keep seeking, keep knocking…until the appointed time of deliverance arrives.

“But I’ve been praying for years and nothing has changed!” This statement shows unbelief. Sometimes people pray one thing and confess another. They declare they believe God has healed them but they complain to others how they are feeling so sick and in pain. The apostle James said that a double-minded man who does not ask in faith cannot expect to receive anything from God.

Is the manifestation not here yet? That means the appointed time has not arrived yet, so keep on praying. Abraham was promised a son, but it was only many years later that the fulfillment happened. I am not saying that your manifestation will take years, but there is a right time that only God knows.

In the meantime while you are waiting, meditate on the passage above and get a sense of how generous Abba God is towards you. He loves you and supplies your good heart’s desires through His Spirit.

If an unwilling friend will reluctantly give you what you keep asking for because of your persistence, then all the more Abba God will exceedingly and abundantly answer your prayer requests. Believe this and wait for the appointed time!

Be a David, Not a Saul

In the Books of Samuel, king Saul is an example of one who always doubts God. His name in Hebrew means “to ask or to question”, so he is always asking “why must it be like this. Why can’t I do it my way?”

Saul acts based on his emotions and is very impulsive, disregarding prophet Samuel’s instructions that come from God.

On the other hand, David means “beloved”. King David is juxtaposed with Saul, showing the difference between a doubter and a believer.

The one who knows that God loves him will trust the Lord’s promptings. Such a person will easily be led by the Holy Spirit and experience good success.

God called David “a man after My own heart”, so David was someone willing to be led by God.

Many times when we act like Saul, we end up with a failure streak, and wonder why bad things keep happening.

If you keep doing things from a place of assumptions, fear, and worry, you will end up ashamed and disappointed.

What we need is to really seek the Lord and see what He is saying to us through the Holy Spirit.

He may speak to you inwardly, through a friend, a sermon, dreams, visions, confirming signs, etc.

If you are like David, believing that God loves you and only wants the best for you, then trust Him to lead you.

Ask the Holy Spirit to position you in the right place at the right time, to receive the best results in whatever situation you are praying about.

That is why God’s wisdom is invaluable—more precious than rubies, gold, silver!

Fight Only your Battles

“After these things, God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!” He said, “Here I am.” He said, “Now take your son, your only son, whom you love, even Isaac, and go into the land of Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell you of.” Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son. He split the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went to the place of which God had told him.” (Genesis‬ ‭22:1-3‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

God told Abraham to sacrifice his beloved son of promise.

There is a reason why God did not ask Sarah do it. He knew that she would not be able to.

After being ridiculed for decades for being barren, she finally had her only son after much patience, perseverance, and probably tears.

Asking Sarah to sacrifice her son as an offering is akin to driving her insane and probably suicide. There is no mention of Abraham telling Sarah about God’s instruction.

Abraham probably left home with a heavy heart, just kissing Sarah goodbye and telling her that he was going out with Isaac to spend some time together. We don’t know exactly what he told her, but it is probably not, “Dear, I am bringing our son now to be offered as a burnt offering because God said so.”

God saw Abraham’s heart and knew that he would be able to pass the test.

“No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.” (1 Corinthians‬ ‭10:13‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

When God tests a person, it is not because He does not know the outcome. He wants to teach us something through the test, enabling us to grow closer to Him and know Him better.

In the case of Abraham’s test, we are taught that someone restrained Abraham from sacrificing his son, but at the cross, no one restrained God from sacrifice Jesus, His only begotten Son. There was no substitute. Jesus had to bleed and die so that we would be saved.

If you are married, your marriage is also a partnership. Your spouse has a unique set of gifts, anointings, and a calling that is different from yours. God will use you for what you are good at (what He designed you for), and He will use your spouse for what he/she is good at. This way, your family unit will benefit from both sets of graces.

As a married person, your role is not to do everything, as God will delegate tasks to you and your spouse. Trust that He knows what He is doing.

Abraham’s test was designed by God for Abraham, not Sarah. Fight only your battles.

If you have an urge to do everything yourself, it is time to release that control into God’s hands. He wants you to enjoy a level of restfulness that comes from each person doing what he/she has the grace and capacity to do. The Holy Spirit will lead you!

Learn how to flow with God’s appointed time and ways, to do the right thing at the right time. In “God’s Appointed Time”, you will discover how to experience restful increase and unceasing fruitfulness through tapping on the Grace that this available to you in every time and season of life: https://bit.ly/god-appointed-time

Lyrics:
You put a tear through the veil
That was keeping me from You
With a nail in Your hands,
Your love has broken through

By Your wounds we are healed
This is how mercy was revealed
Perfect Lamb became the curse
The empty grave, the final word

How strong and how wide
How deep is Your faithful love
Unchanging, unceasing
Your work cannot be undone, no

There is nothing that could ever separate us (x4)

日文歌詞 / Japanese Lyrics :
When cold rain's falling from the sky
Will you stay by my side?

止まない雨に打たれ　あなたは哭いていた
冷たいだけの詩に　その瞳を逸らして

淡い夢に身を任せ　傍にいたかった
隠せない面影を手繰り寄せて　今　世界の隅で

Can you hear me now?
I'm here, alone 深く刺すほどに強くなれと願う
Hold my hand ただ描いたのは　それぞれの道を選べる時

消えない炎の中で　季節は揺れていた
陽だまりに身を寄せた　春は過ぎ去って
深い夜の帳に堕ちる露が　ただ白く煙る

And I'll figure out
なぜ　不確かな物ばかり　強く胸を焦がす
Cold rain まだ　拭えない正しさを　洗い流して If you're here…

Can you hear me now?
I'm here, alone 遠く雷鳴が強くなれと叫ぶ
Cold rain 今　白い雨が一輪の花を咲かせる時

花を咲かせるとき

中文歌詞 / Chinese Lyrics :
遙遙天穹篩落冷冽雨
你是否能伴我身？

淋打著不止歇的夏雨，與淚水一同流落你的臉龐
你別過眼神，僅望向冷若冰霜的詩詞

妥身予朦朧幻夢，僅渴望你待我身旁
試圖在現處的世界一隅，憶起、追循，毫無掩飾的真摯神情

你能否聽見我的呼喊？
佇此，哪怕孤身一人，內心仍深切地渴望能夠更堅強
請你緊握我的手，但為此所描繪的是，彼此能夠選擇各自道路前行之時

永不熄滅的焰火之中，季節悄悄搖曳更迭
置身於烈陽之下，意覺春意闌珊
深夜帷幕之中降下的雨露，僅成縷縷白漫雲煙，飄散

我將持續探尋
為何，不確實的種種，使此心焦灼難安
只要你伴我身旁，哪怕是難以抹滅的正確，也任由冷冽的夏雨肆意洗刷一切

你能聽見我的聲音嗎？
我在這啊，即使形單影隻，響徹遠方的雷鳴卻彷彿正呼喊著堅強
冷冽的白雨，如今，正靜待著止歇，使花朵綻開時

待雨後繁花錦簇時

英文歌詞 / English Lyrics :
When cold rain's falling from the sky
Will you stay by my side?

Drenched by the unceasing rain, you were crying.
Looking away from the cold poem.

I gave myself to a faint dream, hoping you to stay by my side.
I'm hauling the expression that can't hide now, in the corner of the world.

Can you hear me now?
I'm here, alone. The deeper you stab, the more I hope to be stronger.
Hold my hand. The only thing I drew is nothing but the time when we can choose our own way.

Within the unstoppable flame, seasons were swaying.
The spring that depending on the sun has passed.
The dew that falls from the curtain of the deep night sky, looks nothing but misty white.

And I'll figure out.
The reason why these uncertain things strongly burn my heart.
Cold rain. Please rinse away the truth and correctness that still can't be wiped. If you're here…

Can you hear me now?
I'm here, alone. The distant thunder is roaring as if asking me to be stronger.
Cold rain, is now waiting for the time that the white rain to bloom the flower.

Waiting for the time flowers bloom.
