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

Revealing Abba in Psalm 35

O Abba let Us persuade those that strive in the earth for life; let Us bring an end to death and all that can bring harm to Your beloved;

Let Us strengthen the hearts of all people with confidence; speaking an eternal word about them in My testimony; in how You defended and delivered Me from all death and corruption;

Destroying the sting of death; and bringing an end to the way that brought death and corruption in the earth;

Quenching all the fiery darts and taking out of the way, all that was against them; and that which pursued My life; speaking a word in Me, to all Your beloved that You Abba, are the One who will save them from death and destruction;

Let Us spoil and confound the corrupt wisdom of the enemy; and let the way that sought to destroy Me; and all Your beloved; be brought to nothing;

Let Us chase the enemy away, like chaff before the wind;
Let Us pursue, chase down and destroy the way, which brought death upon Your beloved; let blindness cause the enemy to stumble in the darkness;

For with intent to bring harm the enemy has deceptively sought to entrap and bring destruction upon all Your beloved; digging a pit for their life;

Let Us bring destruction upon the enemy from where he knows not of; his own way will cause him to fall into a pit and bring destruction upon himself;

And I will be exceedingly joyful in You, My Abba; I rejoice in how You saved Me and all Your brethren from the enemy death; and all that sought to bring harm to their lives;

My testimony is a word declaring to all people that there is no one like You, Abba;
You redeemed all Your beloved in Me; those who had no ability to save themselves; You destroyed the strong man; death; and the way of death that was against them; saving their lives from all that might destroy them;

Those who themselves were deceived, told lies and falsely charged Me with many things; accusing Me of hardships for the good things I had done and declared in Your name Abba; attempting to take My life;

But I saw their innocence; and the affliction and the fear of death that they were in bondage to;

I thought little of My ability to preserve My own life but trusted only in Your ability and Your incorruptible life; and the prayer that flowed from My heart was, “Abba, forgive them, for they know not what they do”;

I entered into their darkness so they could all see I was just like them; their friend and their brother; and I testified to them the way unto life, by refusing to trust in My own strength but in Your incorruptible life, Abba;

But in My distress, they rejoiced; scoffing and mocking Me; gnashing Me with their teeth; and tempting Me to save Myself;

Abba, with patience; You have watched Your beloved: desiring to rescue them in the fullness of time; from death and from the fear of death; rescue Me; Abba, in My affliction; and Your beloved from all that has sought to harm them;

I glorify and declare Your name, Abba, in all the earth; that You are the author of life; My testimony proclaims this to all people;

Let not My enemy find joy in their deception; neither let those who agree with their way to prosper in their attempt to harm Me or Your beloved;

For they speak not that which brings peace; but they disturb those who are quiet; just like they opened their mouths to speak falsely against Me;

Abba, You heard Me in My affliction and answered, that You are not far from Me and will never leave or forsake Me;

Let Us arise and execute Your judgment in Me; declaring the innocence of all people as your dear children;

Showing forth Your judgment in Me, O Abba; in saving Me and all your beloved from death; and seeing that death no longer has any power over Me, in You raising Me up in an immortal human body and seating Me at Your right hand;

Let not the enemy prevail; nor allow the way that brought death to claim any victory;

Rather let them be ashamed that tried to destroy Me and Your beloved; let them be brought to nothing; let shame come on the one who tried to magnify his way over Your wisdom, Abba;

Let all Your beloved shout for joy and be glad; that see Your favor and loving-kindness for them in Me; in You conquering their death in Me;

Let Your name be magnified, in My testimony; that they may see themselves in My face; and see Your good view and opinion of them in Me; seated at Your right hand, Abba; as their inheritance;

My testimony declares an eternal word to all people; that You Abba have once and for all time conquered their death and in beholding Me at Your right hand, will they praise Your name forevermore.
