Revealing Abba in Psalm 28
| I cry
unto You, O Abba, My defender and sure foundation, You hear Me, even if
You appear silent to other men; who are without hope and have fallen
into a pit for which they cannot get themselves out; You hear Me when I cry out to You with a strong cry of supplication, and when I, Your holy One, lifts My hands to You; You keep Me from the way that leads to destruction; and from the end of those in bondage to it; they speak subtlety to their neighbor with their mouth, but in their heart is that which does harm; Give them over to the corrupt wisdom in their heart; and to the hardship of their labors: to pursue the works of their own hands so that they may see the emptiness of its rewards; For they do not regard Your testimony Abba; nor the works of Me, Your hands; Let Us destroy all that seeks to harm them; conquering it forever; Thanks be to You, Abba; because You have spoken well of them in Me; answering when You heard My voice and My cry for help; Abba is the strength and the protector of My life; My heart goes to rest in Him; into His hands do I trust My life; I rejoice with song unto Him; You Abba, have put a new song of hope into My heart and the hearts of all Your beloved; My testimony declares that Abba is their strength and their life; and He is the strength that saved Me, His anointed; from death and corruption; Let Us save Your people from death and all that seeks to destroy them; You have spoken well of them, in Me, Your families inheritance; I will be their food for life and You will lift them up forever. |
