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

Revealing Abba in Psalm 50

Abba; is a mighty God; even the Lord; who has spoken over the earth from the beginning; calling for all things to be gathered unto Himself;

Abba’s light has shined out of Me; His dwelling place; and has shown forth the beauty and perfection He sees in Me and His beloved;

Abba comes declaring the truth in Me; and like a fire it devours and swallows up all things contrary to His life; and like a whirlwind sweep them away;

He has declared from the heavens above and unto the earth, the innocence of His people;

Abba has always desired to gather His beloved unto Himself; those who see the Word of their testimony in My face;

And Abba declares from heaven, in Me at His right hand, that He has destroyed death, raising Me from the grave in immortal flesh and bone, and seating Me at His right hand: and in Me has Abba declared that death and the grave have lost their sting;

Hear Abba! for He has spoken a word to Me and in Me; testifying that I can trust Him with My life; to save Me from death and give Me His life as a gift; declaring, I AM God, even Your Abba who gives You My life;

I will not correct you for your many offerings when they are born from the joy of seeing the life I have promised you from the beginning;

But it has never been My desire to take bulls and goats from your house or your table. I don’t need them. All the beasts of the earth are mine, I own them all;

If I were hungry I would not ask you; because the earth is Mine and everything in it if that is what I desired;

Do you think I feast on bulls and drink the blood of goats?

Rather, I have waited with great anticipation for Your offering of joy and thanksgiving; and seeing it overflow in Your heart toward Me when You behold My testimony; fully persuaded of the promise to save You from death and corruption and give You My life. This is the offering I have truly desired from the beginning;

And in the day of trouble, You cried out to Me; “Abba” and I delivered You and You glorified Me;

But to those who labor and toil to give themselves life; Abba says, apart from Me, what could you ever do to produce My life? Or that the fruit of your mouth would ever glorify Me;

Seeing you rejected My life as a gift; you discard My words behind you;

When you saw the thief who takes men’s lives and puts them in bondage, you conspired with him; and became a partaker with those who run after false gods;

Your mouth heaps hardships on men too hard to bear; and your tongue speaks lies about Abba and man;

You sit and speak against your brother; the son of man; and you slander your own mother’s son.

All these things you have said and done darkening My council and I was silent; you even thought that I was just like you; but I will declare My testimony before your eyes; admonishing and setting everything in order; reconciling all things back to Myself;

Consider My Testimony, you that have forgotten the promise of Abba to give you His life as a gift; lest destruction from upon you; for there is no one else who can deliver you but Abba;

Whosoever offers perfect praise, glorifies Abba; calling upon His name; bringing the offering He has always desired: when you see Me offering thanksgiving to Abba; in fulfillment of the life Abba has promised from the beginning; It declares to you the salvation of Abba and His incorruptible life as your inheritance.
