Revealing Abba in Psalm 2
| Why are the people and
nations so disturbed, crying out in angst? Why do they meditate on the
life they can give themselves? The kings and princes of the earth are fixed firmly against Abba and Me, His anointed; They have never known or seen Abba at any time, so they portray Him as an evil taskmaster who wants to put them in bondage. And say, “we won’t let Him reign over us!” Abba laughs and actually rejoices knowing His plan will make that thought look silly; Then when Abba speaks in His passion for the life He will give them for free; in His passion for all to share in His life, He gives those who want to be self-sufficient over to it, where they find that they are increasingly disturbed to the point they see that their way only produces death and that it pleases Abba to give them His life for free; Abba says of Me, I have set My king at My right hand, the holy place where I dwell; I will declare what Abba spoke unto Me from the beginning, He said, you are My beloved Son; and in the fullness of time, Abba has revealed Me as His Son in raising Me from the dead with His life and immortality; Abba, I inquire of You, and You remind Me how We said Let Us make man Ourselves as an inheritance and the uttermost part of the earth as Our entire family's possession; You shall make foolish the corrupt wisdom of the world, and with Me; Your right arm; You will shatter it like a sledgehammer as a way unto life; And You shall declare to kings and to all people Abba’s wisdom. O you kings and judges of the earth behold the teaching and instruction of Abba in Me; Then You will trust Abba is the Lord and that You have no ability to give yourself life but stand still in awe and rejoice that He has come to freely clothe you with His life; the same incorruptible life you see in Me; Embrace Me, the Son; the way unto the life Abba is passionate to give you, lest He be displeased that you perish; Abba has spoken well of and adored you in Me, the Son, trust in Him. |
