Psalms 22


2. My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? [You are] far from my salvation [and] from the words of my moaning. ב. אֵלִי אֵלִי לָמָה עֲזַבְתָּנִי רָחוֹק מִישׁוּעָתִי דִּבְרֵי שַׁאֲגָתִי:
3. My God, I call out by day and You do not reply, and at night I do not keep silent. ג. אֱלֹהַי אֶקְרָא יוֹמָם וְלֹא תַעֲנֶה וְלַיְלָה וְלֹא דוּמִיָּה לִי:

7. But I am a worm and not a man; a reproach of man, despised by peoples. ז. וְאָנֹכִי תוֹלַעַת וְלֹא אִישׁ חֶרְפַּת אָדָם וּבְזוּי עָם:
8. All who see me will mock me; they will open their lips, they will shake their head. ח. כָּל רֹאַי יַלְעִגוּ לִי יַפְטִירוּ בְשָׂפָה יָנִיעוּ רֹאשׁ:
9. One should cast his trust upon the Lord, and He will rescue him; He will save him because He delights in him. ט. גֹּל אֶל יְהֹוָה יְפַלְּטֵהוּ יַצִּילֵהוּ כִּי חָפֵץ בּוֹ:
10. For You drew me from the womb; You made me secure on my mother's breasts. י. כִּי אַתָּה גֹחִי מִבָּטֶן מַבְטִיחִי עַל שְׁדֵי אִמִּי:
11. Upon You, I was cast from birth; from my mother's womb You are my God. יא. עָלֶיךָ הָשְׁלַכְתִּי מֵרָחֶם מִבֶּטֶן אִמִּי אֵלִי אָתָּה:
12. Do not distance Yourself from me, for distress is near; for there is none to help. יב. אַל תִּרְחַק מִמֶּנִּי כִּי צָרָה קְרוֹבָה כִּי אֵין עוֹזֵר:
13. Great bulls have surrounded me; the mighty ones of Bashan encompassed me. יג. סְבָבוּנִי פָּרִים רַבִּים אַבִּירֵי בָשָׁן כִּתְּרוּנִי:
14. They opened their mouth against me [like] a tearing, roaring lion. יד. פָּצוּ עָלַי פִּיהֶם אַרְיֵה טֹרֵף וְשֹׁאֵג:
15. I was spilled like water, and all my bones were separated; my heart was like wax, melting within my innards. טו. כַּמַּיִם נִשְׁפַּכְתִּי וְהִתְפָּרְדוּ כָּל עַצְמוֹתָי הָיָה לִבִּי כַּדּוֹנָג נָמֵס בְּתוֹךְ מֵעָי:
16. My strength became dried out like a potsherd, and my tongue cleaves to my palate; and You set me down in the dust of death. טז. יָבֵשׁ כַּחֶרֶשׂ | כֹּחִי וּלְשׁוֹנִי מֻדְבָּק מַלְקוֹחָי וְלַעֲפַר מָוֶת תִּשְׁפְּתֵנִי:
17. For dogs have surrounded me; a band of evildoers has encompassed me, like a lion, my hands and feet. יז. כִּי סְבָבוּנִי כְּלָבִים עֲדַת מְרֵעִים הִקִּיפוּנִי כָּאֲרִי יָדַי וְרַגְלָי:
18. I tell about all my bones. They look and gloat over me. יח. אֲסַפֵּר כָּל עַצְמוֹתָי הֵמָּה יַבִּיטוּ יִרְאוּ בִי:
19. They share my garments among themselves and cast lots for my raiment. יט. יְחַלְּקוּ בְגָדַי לָהֶם וְעַל לְבוּשִׁי יַפִּילוּ גוֹרָל:
20. But You, O Lord, do not distance Yourself; my strength, hasten to my assistance. כ. וְאַתָּה יְהֹוָה אַל תִּרְחָק אֱיָלוּתִי לְעֶזְרָתִי חוּשָׁה:
23. I will tell Your name to my brothers; in the midst of the congregation I will praise You. כג. אֲסַפְּרָה שִׁמְךָ לְאֶחָי בְּתוֹךְ קָהָל אֲהַלְלֶךָּ:
24. You who fear the Lord, praise Him; all the seed of Jacob, honor Him, and fear Him, all the seed of Israel. כד. יִרְאֵי יְהֹוָה | הַלְלוּהוּ כָּל זֶרַע יַעֲקֹב כַּבְּדוּהוּ וְגוּרוּ מִמֶּנוּ כָּל זֶרַע יִשְׂרָאֵל:

RECALLED OR CALLED?

*Translate into your own language by clicking the icon to the right of the screen.*

I was reading this wonderful passage again and am reminded that Adonai has promised there WILL be survivors.  They WILL be those whom He has called. 
Joel 3
 “After this, I will pour out
my Spirit on all humanity.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions;
2 and also on male and female slaves
in those days I will pour out my Spirit.
3 I will show wonders in the sky and on earth —
blood, fire and columns of smoke.
The sun will be turned into darkness
and the moon into blood
before the coming of the great
and terrible Day of Adonai.”
5 At that time, whoever calls
on the name of Adonai will be saved.
For in Mount Tziyon and Yerushalayim
there will be those who escape,
as Adonai has promised;
among the survivors will be those
whom Adonai has called.

Do you doubt whether God has called you?  It is something we all will question from time to time.  God says that the gifts and callings He has placed within us are NOT and WILL NEVER be recalled.  
Do you know what happens when an item like a toy or a car is recalled?  You take it back to the manufacturer or maker and the Maker fixes it or replaces it.  The Word says that is not so with spiritual gifts. 
When God decided to send your spirit to this earth, He had a specific plan.  Do you know His plan?  Do you know what He has gifted and talented you to do?  His PLAN and CALLING on your life Will Never Be recalled by Him. You can tell Him you do not want to do the thing He has called you to do, but that thing will never go away.  It will always be there and you will be reminded of it from time to time.  
So today I ask you, what is your purpose in this life, on this earth?  Is your purpose presently focused on you or on others?  Is is about the Kingdom of Heaven?  Remember, this earth is not our home, we are just passing through.  Live this day as though it is on purpose.  You can start today.  Your life is VERY significant to God!

HE IS YOUR SHIELD


 *Do you want to read this blog in your own language?  Click the TRANSLATE icon on the right of the screen.*

Have you put on the armor of the Lord today?
Ephesians 6 speaks of putting on the helmet of Salvation, The breastplate of Righteousness, the shield of Faith, the S-word of the Spirit which is the Word of God.  These are things that we daily ask of the Lord. The Lord is your shield today.  His protection is the blessing that we have IN Him.  Every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Yeshua Messiah is Lord.  Every thing that seems to be coming against you today, whether it is something you have done or done to another, will have to bow to the Lordship of Yeshua.  
God has not given you a spirit to give way to fear today.  He sends His Love, His Power, and His Sound Mind upon you.
You are covered by the blood and are covered in Him.  He is the One who will lift up your head.
