Dear Readers,
I wanted to share what PAPA has been showing me in Hebrews 10.
____________________
Hebrews 10:34-36 (AMP)
v. 34
“For you did sympathize and suffer along with those who were imprisoned, and you bore cheerfully the plundering of your belongings and the confiscation of your property, in the knowledge and consciousness that you yourselves had a better and lasting possession.”
— I have yet to bear “cheerfully the plundering of [my] belongings and the confiscation of [my] property.” (I’m referring to numerous incidents years ago with a particular Adopted Family Member.)
So . . . , since PAPA makes it VERY clear here (and in other verses in Scripture) of how I’m to live when others attack me, I wanted to share my prayer with y’all.
“KING YESHUA, I ask You and I thank You for doing whatever it takes to soften my heart towards You, Your Word, and Your Will in every area of my life — no matter what it costs me — especially in the area of cheerfully bearing attacks (both past, present, and future).”

v. 35
“Do not, therefore, fling away your fearless confidence, for it carries a great and glorious compensation of reward.”
— Fearless confidence?? I’ve not even REMOTELY been confident for weeks, much less been fearless!
But, GOD . . . , He Says He does NOT want me to fling it away, but I didn’t even realize He WANTED ME to have fearless confidence!! I’m serious!
But, GOD . . . , He has been patiently revealing to me what that means and what it looks like.
And it is . . . GLORIOUS!!!!!!!

v. 36
“For you have need of steadfast patience and endurance, so that you may perform and fully accomplish the will of God, and thus receive and carry away [and enjoy to the full] what is promised.”
— Ahhhh . . . , here are THE REASONS why PAPA wants me to live a life of fearless confidence in Him — and the vital necessity of my developing “steadfast patience and endurance”:
“. . . so that [I] may perform and fully accomplish” His Will — PLUS! — so I can “receive and carry away what is promised” — AND — fully enjoy it, too!!!!!!!
W.O.W. . . . . double-triple W.O.W. . . . . . it sure doesn’t get any better than that!
🙂
