Breathe

There are many people who are experiencing sickness at this time, or know a friend, co-worker, or loved one, who is. COVID-19 is touching many lives, as well as other illnesses. During these difficult times, I know and feel that God, Father of us all, is calling us back into a closer, life-saving and life-changing knowledge of, and relationship with Him, with His son, Jesus, our Savior and King, and with the Holy Spirit, our Helper and Comforter. Recently, Fran in NY sent me her short Hebrew word study and intercessory prayer for us as the Body of Christ to pray for ourselves, for each other, and especially for those who are experiencing illness. She has given me her permission to pass this along. This Sabbath, let us enter into the LORD's healing rest together. Here is the information from Fran, and her prayer for healing: "Did you know the root word etymology for "rest" has to do with "breathing?" Yeah, Lord! First mention of "rest" is found in Gen. 8:9, with the Hebrew word "Manowah". The primitive root is "nuwach", meaning, "To rest, sit down. To set oneself down anywhere to take rest. The original idea lies in respiring, drawing breath, to rest, be quiet, draw breath... To kneel down as a camel, a place where camels lie down... to respire, to rest, e.g., Used of an army....". We have breath this day only because of You, Oh Righteous Father, and oh how we thank You for breath this day! Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. As we're a body before You, we breathe with and for those who are sick this day, Blessed Jesus. We lift our voice and with our breath, we say, HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU JESUS! With every breath, there is rest, there is quiet peace, and there is healing. With every breath there is rest, quiet peace and healing, with every breath, every breath, every breath, every breath we each take, in and out, every breath we breathe together.... oh wait... Gotta state that again... With every breath we breathe together, there is rest, quiet peace and healing in the Name of Yeshua, the Breath of life. Hallelujah!! Genesis 7:15-16 KJV — "And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life. And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in." Thank You Oh Righteous Father, for showing that... In the Ark Who is Christ, there is the breath of life!! We go in together, as You command, and... We breathe, we rest, we dwell in quiet peace, and we are healed, in the Holy Name of Jesus. Amen, Lord, Amen....".
