Revealing Abba in Psalm 57
| Let
Your mercy be upon Me; O Abba; ever persuading My heart of Your
loving-kindness; for My heart has found its rest in You; trusting in
You to preserve and defend My life until all affliction has passed; I cry unto You Abba, the most high; for it is by strength of Your hand that all things are brought to perfection and completion; You have sent Me into the world and saved Me from death and corruption and all that seeks to destroy Me and Your beloved; You sent Me; as a testimony for all people; declaring Your heart in grace and truth; I dwell among hungry lions who fiercely seek their prey to stay alive; men, who in their lust for life through their own ability, labor and toil; seeking to take it by force; Let Us exalt Your wisdom in the earth, above the heavens; O Abba; to give them Your life as a gift; Let Your good view and opinion of all Your beloved be proclaimed in Me; The enemy has prepared a net that I might stumble at the truth; My soul is pressed in and brought low in My distress: they have dug a pit for Me; and by their own wisdom do they themselves fall into its trap; My heart is fully persuaded of Your loving-kindness; O Abba: that life is only found in You; and out of My heart does My mouth speak; “into Your hands do I trust My life.” A new song have You put in My mouth, that all men may see it; declaring and speaking well of Your ability to save Me from death; Awake to Abba’s inheritance for you, in seeing the glory revealed in Me; awake and see in Me, how it is Abba who will save you and give you His life as a gift; raising You up to the same glory and immortality; I declare this word from Your heart; O Abba; I sing it unto all people and all nations; For Your loving-kindness for all people; that was testified in saving Me from death and raising Me to glory and immortality; is great in influencing men’s heart of Your truth; that You have given them the promise of this same incorruptible life as a gift; Let Your wisdom be exalted; O Abba; above the heavens; Let the glory and immortality You revealed in Me be above any word in all the earth. |
