Revealing Abba in the Psalms | How Jesus saw God as Abba

Revealing Abba in Psalm 27

Abba is My light and My life; saving Me from all that could harm My life; He is My strength and My ability; whom shall I be afraid?

When the enemy pressed in on Me and death came upon Me to devour My flesh; they stumbled seeing their lying voice has nothing in Me;

Even though I am besieged and surrounded by death; My heart will not fear; for My confidence is in one thing;

For one thing have I desired and am confident in; O Abba; that I will stand before you in glorified human flesh and You will dwell in Me and I in You; forever;

In the glory that I had with You before the world was;

I will behold Your beauty; and You will show Me kindness for the ages to come;

For in the midst of My trouble, I find rest; because Abba has fully persuaded Me that He will clothe Me with His life; He will bring Me into the holiest place and set Me at His right hand;

And now Abba, will You exalt Me as the head; that Your wisdom and power be exalted far above all others; far above the enemy that surrounds Me;

Therefore, I will offer in Me, His tabernacle, a sacrifice of joy; I will sing a song of praise; and put a new song of hope in the hearts of all Your beloved;

You hear Me, O Abba, when I cry out to You: in Your favor and loving-kindness You answer Me;

When You said, seek My face; I saw within it everything that the human heart has ever longed for; Your face Abba will I seek;

Hide not Your face from Me, let it never be far from Me; when I cry out to You in My passion; You are always there to deliver Me;

You will never leave or forsake Me; O Abba; You rescue Me from all death and corruption;

Even when earthly parents and all others forsake; Abba, You will always be there to lift up;

Teach and instruct Me Your way unto life, O Abba, and let Us make Your path unto life plain before their eyes; and Your desire to destroy the enemy; death; and all that seeks to harm Your beloved; You make straight;

Deliver Me from death Abba and from all the plans of the enemy; they speak lies against Me; to gnash on Me and devour Me; tempting Me to rely in My own ability;

But You Abba, have influenced My heart that I faint not; for You have fully persuaded Me of Your goodness and everlasting kindness toward Me; and toward all those who dwell in the earth;

You Abba, influence My heart to go to rest; giving Me a confident expectation that You will clothe Me with Your life by Your strength and ability;

That all people may behold My testimony as a word about themselves; and Your good view and opinion of them; giving birth to the same hope in them;

Influencing their hearts to trust in You Abba for the same life and immortality they behold in Me, at Your right hand.
