So many things seemed to be going wrong, day after day. I was so pressed on every side. I didn’t know how to pray anymore. Then… I began to realize and consider how blessed I am. As I counted blessings, I became more animated by what I could see Yah had done and was doing for me, so out of that thankfulness I decided to pray for abundance.
A couple of years ago, Joie gave me a daily devotional book. I looked up the devotion for that date – the day I began praying for abundance. The corresponding devotion was about the Father’s blessings. He has the universe in His hands, and He could give me the abundance for which I was praying.
As I continued to read, I saw that the writer was telling the reader how we often forget some of the greatest blessings He gives – even the very breath I take is an abundant, continuous blessing from the hand and the heart of Yah. How can I forget or ignore or take for granted such a tremendous blessing?
Father, I repent for ignoring and diminishing or even dismissing the miraculous, abundant blessings You pour out on me EVERY DAY. Forgive me, Abba. Thank you, Yehovah, for the beauty and purity and endurance of Your love.
