Hey, Taste and See Freedom.
Good morning.
This is day five post for our involvement, our participation in the worldwide movement
to intercede these 21 days to fast and pray for the peace of Jerusalem, for Israel, and
for the salvation and welfare of Jews throughout the earth.
In accordance with the scripture, in accordance with the things that we've been discovering
as we've prayed each day.
Technically, this is day six.
I'll post day six later today.
I crashed early last night and slept right through my daily evening post.
So here's day five.
That is out of my heart for day five, the mother and daughter relationships of Israel,
of the Jews.
And four scriptures come to mind as I listed in the description, and that is when Paul
was talking to Timothy about his grandmother Eunice and mother Lois, and the sincerity
of their faith, and what was passed on to Timothy because of this mother and daughter
devotion to God.
And that was taught, it was caught, it was imparted, it was revered, it was honored,
and it made of Timothy the son of this mother and daughter relationship.
It made of him a young man worthy of leading the children of God.
So this was very important to Paul.
And he noted also in Titus 2, the importance of women, their maturity, their focus on God,
their abstinence from superficiality, materialism, fleeting temporal interests and lifestyle,
so that their wisdom and devotion to God would be available to younger women.
In Ezekiel 16, God warns this proverb, like mother, like daughter shall be spoken of you
Israel, and it talked about really the treachery, the dishonorable practices of Israel toward
her God, toward her betrothed, who was Jehovah, God himself, God brought Israel forth a seed
through Abraham and Isaac, a miracle, he brought forth this nation so that he could bring forth
his Messiah and bless all the nations in the earth.
Israel has been the hope of the world from the promise in the garden at the beginning
because of Christ Jesus our Lord, and because of how they carried the word through the earth,
the story of God and his creation and his love for humanity, his intentionality for
humanity in the beginning and through the Gospels and to today.
So we are praying peace for Jerusalem and we are praying these over mother and daughter
relationships today, and one really special relationship that also was highlighted to me
as I considered with the Lord, what he wanted me to pray, what he wanted us to pray today,
and that is for the story of Naomi and Ruth,
that here, of course, Ruth was a daughter-in-law, the sons and the husband of Naomi passing away,
it was actually Ruth who chose Naomi for her mother and chose to be a daughter.
She stepped in and chose to be a daughter, bringing out the mothering in Naomi
and Naomi's advice for Ruth.
As Ruth nurtured the mothering in Naomi, Naomi's instructions and love for Ruth's love for
her advised Ruth, lay down at Boaz's feet and uncover yourself, asking him to dress
yourself up and lay yourself down, asking him to cover you, for the man shall not rest
until he has accomplished what he promised this day for you.
And of course, Boaz is a picture of Christ for us.
So let's pray for the healing of the hearts of mothers as daughters of God and to have
hearts for daughters and that these relationships will take up a passion for Christ, a passion
for God.
Lord, we thank you so much that you have created us as women to hold the mothering heart of
God, to mother the children of God, to mother the offspring of the Almighty, to mother the
ones you have placed in the earth who bring forth life, who nurture life, who train up
life so that each generation may know their origin, their potential in God and their purpose
in the earth.
Lord, I pray for the hearts of mothers to recognize that they are daughters, to no longer
be orphans, to no longer be selfish and self-centered, to no longer be grasping at vanity in the
earth, but to receive from you the gift of a heart to cry out to God, to long for God,
to long for the scriptures, to long for intimacy with their creator, with our creator.
I pray for the mothers of Jerusalem to turn and have their eyes opened to see the condition
of daughters, to see what has been passed down, and to cry out to God, to turn from
their own wicked ways, to press in and pray and humble themselves before God and seek
your face that you may introduce them, Father, to your Son.
And those to whom you give to your Son will not be lost, he will not lose them.
And that they will take up your heart for the children and become mothers to the children.
And that likewise the hearts of daughters, the daughters of Zion, Jerusalem, the daughters
of Israel, in the nation and throughout the earth, would long to be mothered, to be nurtured,
to be adored by God, to be mothered and to seek out and draw out mothers like Ruth did.
Teach me about God.
Teach me of who I am, who your people are.
Teach us, like the children's cries in the feasts as in Passover, that the daughters
would want to be mothered, they would not rebel against their mothers, and mothers would
be birthed forth, and like mother, like daughter, would become a blessing in the land of Israel
and not a curse.
We are so grateful, Lord, that you have given us this opportunity to pray.
And we know that we can bring our natural prayers and you add your supernatural prayers.
So we pray in the Spirit here for a moment for mothers and daughters to be raised up
in Jerusalem and Israel and to the outermost parts of the earth among the Jews to bring
light, the light of salvation to the Jews.
What do you wish to go to your coma?
Pat you to a sushi key for sure.
Tian you are money or what that of a shiki.
How do it to a trishiki?
When you wrote that if you come on,
when you had a little what that of a shiki,
China, what you know,
a coma party,
a little what that of a shiki man,
you had a little coma.
Yes, that mothers,
as you would have longed for an Eve,
would seek the help of their father,
would seek the help of their creator.
The help of the helper
to be a helper in the earth.
Portia, it was so cool money.
And it was she keep him
money or what that of a kid that he and you know
that just like the longing of pray place
in every young girl to be a love,
a beloved daughter,
a beloved bride,
a beloved mother.
That that would fire up
hearts of mothers and daughters
through out the land and the people of Israel.
Lord, restore mothers and daughters
to become children of God
and restore and repair womanhood.
In these women and in your people
and in your act, let's see a crying out on their behalf.
Let your legacy be birthed
in what women all always ought to have been
the gift of the female into the earth,
the gift of the Holy Spirit,
the longing, the nurturing, the comforting
and the helping of God to raise up,
to nurture, to heal, to help,
to bless, to draw to God,
to pray, to intercede,
to care, to sacrifice,
to love, to embrace.
We pray all this in Jesus name.
Amen.
Bless you all.
Bless you, mothers and daughters.
Be made whole.
Love you.
