Tehillim (Psalm) 86

1 A prayer of David: Listen, Adonai, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.

2 Preserve my life, for I am faithful; save your servant, who puts his trust in you

because you are my God.

3 Take pity on me, Adonai, for I cry to you all day.

4 Fill your servant’s heart with joy, for to you, Adonai, I lift my heart.

5 Adonai, you are kind and forgiving, full of grace toward all who call on you.

6 Listen, Adonai, to my prayer; pay attention to my pleading cry.

7 On the day of my trouble I am calling on you, for you will answer me.

8 There is none like you among the gods, Adonai; no deeds compare with yours.

9 All the nations you have made will come and bow before you, Adonai;

they will honor your name.

10 For you are great, and you do wonders; you alone are God.

11 Adonai, teach me your way, so that I can live by your truth;

make me single-hearted, so that I can fear your name.

12 I will thank you, Adonai my God, with my whole heart;

and I will glorify your name forever.

13For your grace toward me is so great! You have rescued me from the lowest part of Sh’ol.

14 God, arrogant men are rising against me, a gang of brutes is seeking my life,

and to you they pay no attention.

15 But you, Adonai, are a merciful, compassionate God,

slow to anger and rich in grace and truth.

16 Turn to me, and show me your favor; strengthen your servant, save your slave-girl’s son.

17 Give me a sign of your favor,so that those who hate me

will see it and be ashamed,because you, Adonai, have helped and comforted me.

Avi Yakar,

Baruch Ata Adonai Blessed are YOU Adonai my GOD and King of the Universe! HOLY is YOUR Name! Forgive me Adonai of all my wrongs and cleanse me with the precious blood of the lamb who takes away the sins of the world. Forgive me and my family from all our iniquities and make us blameless and pure so that we may always please YOU. Toda Adonai for a goodnight's sleep 4 hours was enough because today YOU have empowered me to fast. YOU have empowered me. And I pray for Grace Lim, my sister who also is YOUR special princess Warrior, empower her, give her strength to pray to do what YOU have called her to do. Take care of her Adonai, and show her signs, miracles and wonders. Do not allow her to feel defeated of anxieties but protect her and defend her. Fight for her like YOU fight for me and defeat all her enemies. Avi, I pray the same for my husband Anthony, grant him supernatural favor and grace, strength, wisdom, power to defeat all YOUR enemies, to conquer and keep conquering. I pray for him to receive instructions from YOU to walk by faith, to walk in YOUR Spirit and wisdom. Prepare his heart prepare his mind and help him to ask for YOUR Spirit in all things. Avi, answer the prayers of his heart and longings of his soul that YOU have put within him to desire. Toda Raba Avi...I pray that YOU give Grace a husband too, someone to love her and take care of one another. I pray for Julie and Jayjay, that they be a family that honors and glorifies YOU. I pray Avi, let YOUR kingdom come, let YOUR will be done unto us here on earth as it is in heaven. Toda that YOU hear every prayer of my heart. I desire that we be together Avi, that YOU take us out of here, but since YOU have not taken us out yet, I pray that YOU will send me to a man that I can be a helpmate, who will love me and cherish me and I can be happy with, to build a home that honors and glorifies YOU.

Exodus 2:11-25
15When Pharaoh heard of it, he tried to have Moshe put to death. But Moshe fled from Pharaoh to live in the land of Midyan. One day, as he was sitting by a well, 16the seven daughters of the priest of Midyan came to draw water. They had filled the troughs to water their father’s sheep, 17when the shepherds came and tried to drive them away. But Moshe got up and defended them; then he watered their sheep. 18When they came to Re‘u’el their father, he said, “How come you’re back so soon today?” 19They answered, “An Egyptian rescued us from the shepherds; more than that, he drew water for us and watered the sheep.” 20He asked his daughters, “Where is he? Why did you leave the man there? Invite him to have something to eat.”
21Moshe was glad to stay on with the man, and he gave Moshe his daughter Tzipporah in marriage. 22She gave birth to a son, and he named him Gershom [foreigner there], for he said, “I have been a foreigner in a foreign land.”
23Sometime during those many years the king of Egypt died, but the people of Isra’el still groaned under the yoke of slavery, and they cried out, and their cry for rescue from slavery came up to God. 24God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Avraham, Yitz’chak and Ya‘akov. 25God saw the people of Isra’el, and God acknowledged them.

Avi Yakar,

Great are YOU O GOD Almighty who makes all things possible and does wonderful things!!! Avi, from this story of Moshe, I have a request. I pray that my husband will help us sell one of our properties and ask for my hand in marriage so that my parents will totally release me to marry him without any more obligation from my family that they release me completely to him with joy and cheer and rejoicing! Avi, have mercy on me, I have worked longed enough for my parents, please help me, and give me a place where I can work with joy and not with sadness. Give my husband and I an inheritance that my parents could not even give me because YOU are the GOD of more than enough.

 

Joshua 14 

6 The descendants of Y’hudah approached Y’hoshua in Gilgal, and Kalev the son of Y’funeh the K’nizi said to him, “You know what Adonai told Moshe the man of God about me and you in Kadesh-Barnea. 7I was forty years old when Moshe the servant of Adonai sent me from Kadesh-Barnea to reconnoiter the land, and I brought back to him an honest report. 8My brothers who went up with me discouraged the people, but I followed Adonai my God completely. 9On that day Moshe swore, ‘Surely the land where your foot has been will be the inheritance for you and your descendants forever, because you have followed Adonai my God completely.’ 10Now, look: Adonai has kept me alive these forty-five years, as he said he would, from the time Adonai said this to Moshe, when Isra’el was going through the desert. Today I am eighty-five years old, 11but I am as strong today as on the day Moshe sent me — I’m as strong now as I was then, whether for war or simply for going here and there. 12Therefore, give me this hill, the one Adonai spoke about on that day; for on that day you heard how the ‘Anakim were there with great, fortified cities; perhaps Adonai will be with me, and I will drive them away, as Adonai said.”

13Y’hoshua blessed him and gave Hevron to Kalev the son of Y’funeh as his inheritance. 14So Hevron became the inheritance of Kalev the son of Y’funeh the K’nizi, as it is to this day; because he followed Adonai the God of Isra’el completely. 15(Hevron was formerly called Kiryat-Arba; this Arba was the greatest man among the ‘Anakim.) Then the land had rest from war.

 

Avi Yakar,

Great and Glorious KING! Wow! Look at the descendants of YOUR chosen tribe Judah, how bold they are in their faith and courageous that they asked for the inheritance that GOD had promised them long ago. My husband is just like that a type of Caleb and I praise YOU because he comes from the tribe of Praise! I praise YOU because he is doing great and mighty things! And YOU will give me rest from all my wars that I've been fighting alone. I praise YOU Avi because YOU are faithful to me. 

 

Daniel 10

1In the third year of Koresh king of Persia, a word was revealed to Dani’el, also called Belt’shatzar. The word was certain: a great war. He understood the word, having gained understanding in the vision.

2At that time I, Dani’el, had been mourning for three whole weeks. 3 I hadn’t eaten any food that satisfied me — neither meat nor wine had entered my mouth, and I didn’t anoint myself once, until three full weeks had passed.

4 On the twenty-fourth day of the first month, I was on the bank of the great river, the Tigris, 5when I looked up, and there before me was a man dressed in linen wearing a belt made of fine Ufaz gold. 6His body was like beryl, his face looked like lightning and his eyes like fiery torches; his arms and feet were the color of burnished bronze; and when he spoke, it sounded like the roar of a crowd. 7Only I, Dani’el, saw the vision; the men who were with me did not see the vision; however, a great trembling fell over them; so that they rushed to hide themselves. 8Thus I was left alone; and when I saw this great vision, there was no strength left in me — my face, normally pleasant-looking, became disfigured; and I had no strength.

9I heard his voice speaking; and when I heard him speaking, I fell down in a faint, with my face to the ground. 10Then a hand touched me and raised me, tottering, to my hands and knees. 11He said to me, “Dani’el, you are a greatly loved man. Now pay attention to the words I am saying to you, and stand upright; for it is to you that I have been sent now.” After he had said this to me, I stood up, trembling. 12Then he said to me, “Don’t be afraid, Dani’el; because since the first day that you determined to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words have been heard; and I have come because of what you said. 13The prince of the kingdom of Persia prevented me from coming for twenty-one days; but Mikha’el, one of the chief princes, came to assist me; so that I was no longer needed there with the kings of Persia. 14So I have come to make you understand what will happen to your people in the acharit-hayamim; for there is still another vision which will relate to those days.”

15After he had said these things to me, I looked down at the ground and couldn’t speak. 16Then someone who looked like a human being touched my lips, after which I could open my mouth and speak; I said to the one standing in front of me, “My lord, it is because of the vision that I am seized with such anguish; I don’t have any strength. 17For how can this servant of my lord speak with my lord, when my strength and breath have failed me?” 18Then, again someone who looked human touched me and revived me. 19He said, “You man so greatly loved, don’t be afraid. Shalom to you; and be strong, yes, truly strong.” His speaking to me strengthened me, and I said, “My lord, keep speaking; because you’ve given me strength.” 20Then he said, “Do you know why I came to you? Although now I must return to fight the prince of Persia; and when I leave, the prince of Greece will come; 21nevertheless, I will tell you what is written in the Book of Truth. There is no one standing with me against them except Mikha’el your prince;

Avi Yakar,

Gracious and All Sufficient One! I ask that YOU will grant me the grace to continue fasting today as YOU have granted Daniel and given me word today about his fasting. I pray for many things, I pray for the rulership of Donald Trump in the United States of America to be final on January 6, install him as YOUR King in YOUR beloved America. And Protect our President Duterte from all the attacks of the enemies here in our country. Protect him Adonai, protect YOUR beloved kings. All that YOU have given the power to overcome make them win some more let YOUR glory be revealed through them. Give us the power to overcome more and more O LORD for we are YOUR slave and servant and I live for YOU alone! Enable my family to overcome O LORD all our flesh, and attacks of the enemy. Through YOU and with YOU we will always win. O GOD Almighty! Blessed are YOU Adonai our GOD King of the Universe!

Ba HaShem YESHUA HaMashiach, Amen!

Mark 16

[a]9 When Yeshua rose early Sunday, he appeared first to Miryam of Magdala, from whom he had expelled seven demons. 10 She went and told those who had been with him, as they were crying and mourning. 11 But when they heard that he was alive and that she had seen him, they wouldn’t believe it.
12 After that, Yeshua appeared in another form to two of them as they were walking into the country. 13 They went and told the others, but they didn’t believe them either.
14 Later, Yeshua appeared to the Eleven as they were eating, and he reproached them for their lack of trust and their spiritual insensitivity in not having believed those who had seen him after he had risen. 15 Then he said to them, “As you go throughout the world, proclaim the Good News to all creation. 16 Whoever trusts and is immersed will be saved; whoever does not trust will be condemned. 17 And these signs will accompany those who do trust: in my name they will drive out demons, speak with new tongues, 18 not be injured if they handle snakes or drink poison, and heal the sick by laying hands on them.”
19 So then, after he had spoken to them, the Lord Yeshua was taken up into heaven and sat at the right hand of God.[b] 20 And they went out and proclaimed everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the message by the accompanying signs.

Dear Avi,

O GOD Almighty! I do not know what YOU want to happen in my life. I see some hint of what our future with my husband could be like but I don't think good thing for us to be under the shelter of the Sy Family even though they are the richest in the Philippines, I don't us to be dependent on some people and I always prayed for my husband to be independent to have his own career be it in business or in whatever field he is skilled with. But if it's the best LORD then who am I to say no it's not good LORD. YOU alone know what is best for us and I am praying that YOU will lead us exactly where we are supposed to go. I also believe that if we are connected to them, we don't have to worry about a business as a whole but we can be part of their business and handle only what we need to handle. Being in business is so difficult LORD especially if we don't have YOUR blessing. I always believe we only prosper because of YOUR blessing!!! We can never prosper on our own. And so Avi, I lay all my thoughts to YOU, that are lower and I take up YOUR thoughts upon me which are higher. Give me YOUR mind Adonai, and make me one with YOU. I wanted to have an adventure with YOU and so I pray that Anthony and I will live a life that follows YOU completely and whole heartedly, that we will always live a life that is filled with YOUR Ruach Hakodesh. Fill us Avi, especially me Avi, today I am so in need of YOU. Forgive me Avi for all my doubts, worries, and fears, for not trusting YOU with the work YOU are doing in my life. Restore unto me the joy of my salvation restore unto me YOUR Ruach Hakodesh, Restore unto me YOUR Wisdom and love, YOUR Shekinah Presence and renew a right spirit within me. Avi, free me from the burdens that I carry for my family. Free me, from thoughts that are not noble and good. Free me from the oppression of the enemy. Free me Avi, have mercy on me and free me. Avi heal me... heal me... heal me... Ba HaShem YESHUA HaMashiach... I pray for all the petitions of my heart, that I speak with my mouth. Toda that YOU always hear me Avi. Revive me once Again O GOD Almighty as I submit myself unto YOUR hand. All honor, glory, power and praise belongs to YOU O GOD!!!

Ba HaShem YESHUA HaMashiach, Amen!
