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

Revealing Abba in Psalm 51

O Abba; You are merciful and gracious unto Your beloved according to Your loving-kindness: Let Us show forth the abundance of Your goodness, truth and tender mercy; blotting out the way that brings the fruit of death which is contrary to Your life;

Purging their hearts from the world’s wisdom and removing the death reigning over them;

For the fruit of death manifesting in them from the corrupt wisdom they have believed on is ever before them;

Against Your truth Abba have they believed; going contrary; they were not partaking of Your life; this way brought hardships and death upon them;

O that they would see that way only brings death; so that they may clearly see Your judgment and be persuaded of the word You have spoken in Me: Your judgment of their innocence and of Your blessing and life as a gift.

Behold, I was formed inside of a world filled with corruptness and darkness; and My mother did conceive Me in a world where death was reigning over man.

Behold, You Abba desired to reveal the truth to Me and in Me; and were ever influencing My heart; nurturing and making known to Me Your wisdom;

I delight to do Your will Abba; to bear their death in My body and purge their conscience with My blood; declaring their innocence and washing their slate clean;

You lay before Me the joy and gladness of hearing those who have been under the crushing weight of sin and death as they rejoice in seeing their testimony in Me;

Putting an end to that union which served them with death; blotting out all that is contrary to Your wisdom and Your way unto life;

That they might behold in Me; a new creation; and see their innocence; O Abba, and be born from the Spirit of life;

You have testified in Me; that in bearing their sin in My body, You never cast Me away from Your presence; or removed Your Spirit from Me;

But rather You restored Me to the glory I had with You before the world was; and have seated Me at Your right hand in an immortal human body; testifying how in trusting You with My life; You saved Me from death and upheld Me with Your incorruptible life;

Now, I have spoken a word to all those experiencing the fruit of death; teaching them Your ways; and those who were not partaking of Your life can see Your life as their inheritance;

Removing all guilt and shame; O Abba, You delivered Your beloved from the sting of death; and all that sought to bring them harm;

O Abba; You opened My lips and I have declared Your name in the earth; and Your good opinion of man;

For You Abba never desired sacrifice or burnt offerings because it could never satisfy Your hope for Your life with man;

Rather, Your longing desire was that in man seeing their inability to give themselves life; they could behold in Me Your desire and ability to give them Your life as a gift; O Abba; this is the only sacrifice that could ever satisfy Your hearts desire;

It was Your good pleasure; to reveal in Me, Your desire to share Your life eternally with Your beloved: Let Us make our abode with them forever;

Then will You be pleased Abba, with the sacrifice and offering that destroyed death and all that was against Your beloved; and gave them Your life as an inheritance; then will they call upon Your name; rejoicing in their hearts; in the certain hope that they can trust You Abba with their life.
