AN OPEN PRAYER FOR THE WORLD

THIS PRAYER BY ELLISA, WAS FIRST SENT OUT IN 2006. IT ACCOMPANIED YAHUSHUA'S MESSSAGE TO THE WORLD, FIRST SENT OUT IN 2006


PART 1.

Loving Yahweh, my Heavenly Father, today I come to You in the righteous Name of Yahushua Ha Mashiach (Jesus Christ), my Saviour, and through the divine power of the Ruach Ha Kodesh (the Holy Spirit), my Teacher, Comforter, Helper and Guide, Who has given me life for this day.

I worship and adore You, O Yahweh Most High, and give You thanks for Your loving kindness and tender mercies to us the children of men. I thank You for Yahushua (Jesus), our precious and loving Saviour, whom You sent to die for us, to redeem us from the curse of sin and death. Thank You also blessed Heavenly Father for the gift of the Ruach Ha Kodesh, Whom You sent to be with us upon the Return of Yahushua to Heaven, Your throne, almost two thousand years ago. I thank You gracious Yahweh, My Father, that Together, You are the Only True Elohim (God), the Creator of heaven and earth and all worlds, and the Giver and Sustainer of all life.

To You alone blessed Elohim: Yahweh, my Father, Yahushua, my Saviour and the Ruach Ha Kodesh (Holy Spirit), belong worship and adoration, praise and thanksgiving; blessing and majesty, dominion and power, reverence and glory, and laud and honour, for YOU alone are Elohim (the God of Israel) and there is no other in all heaven or in all the earth.

You alone Yahweh, My Father, Yahushua, my Saviour and the Ruach Ha Kodesh, my Comforter, are worthy to be praised, from the rising of the sun until its going down, and from its going down, until its rising again, You alone are worthy to be praised (Psalm 113:3)!! I uplift, exalt and magnify You, great Elohim, because You are the Elohim of all flesh. You alone are the self-existent, eternal, omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent and immutable Elohim. You are the GOD of all gods and LORD of all lords, the Only True and living Adonai (Lord), Who never slumbers or sleeps. You are the:

“Blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and [Adon of Adonai] Lord of lords; Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting”. 1 Timothy 6: 15, 16.

Gracious and righteous Yahweh, Yahushua and the Ruach Ha Kodesh, You are the only true and living Elohim (the God of Israel) and I thank You that You alone are the Creator of heaven and earth and all worlds and their inhabitants. Loving Elohim, You are the ONLY Giver and Sustainer of all life, Who provides for our daily needs, including our water, food, shelter and clothing.

You alone loving Elohim maintain Planet Earth on which we live. You keep the sun in its orbit, the earth on its axis, the moon and stars in their places, the oceans, seas, lakes and rivers in their bounds and cause man and beast to inhabit and co-exist upon this earth. You give us the sunshine and the rain, provide Oxygen for us humans to keep us alive, while You provide Carbon Dioxide for the plants and maintain the seasons. Who is like You, O great and mighty Elohim? There is none! Blessed are You, O Thou Most High and Holy Elohim (God).

Loving Heavenly Father, Yahweh, once again I thank You for the gift of Yahushua, Your dear Son, Whom You sent to be my Saviour and Redeemer. Thank You for Your unselfish love in sending Him, the Creator of the world from Heaven, Your throne and dwelling place, to this sinful world to die for us the human race, so that He could redeem us from the curse of sin and eternal death, and from the adversary, Satan as Your Word declares:

And this is the record, “that [Yahweh] God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son [Yahushua Ha Mashiach]. He that hath the Son [Yahushua] hath life; and he that hath not the Son of [Yahweh] God hath not life”. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of [Yahweh] God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on [Yahushua] the name of the Son of [Yahweh] God. 1 John 5: 11-13.

For [Yahweh] God so loved the world [that includes you], that he gave his only begotten Son [Yahushua Ha Mashiach], that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16).

Thank You gracious Adonai (Lord), that You have given Yahushua, our Saviour, a Name that is above every name and that at His Name, every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that He alone is Adonai (Lord) to Your glory. Thus the Scriptures say:

“Let this mind be in you, which was also in [Yahushua Ha Mashiach] Christ Jesus: 6Who, being in the form of [Yahweh] God, thought it not robbery to be equal with [Yahweh] God: 7But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross”. 9“Wherefore [Yahweh] God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10That at the name of [Yahushua] Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11And that every tongue should confess that [Yahushua Ha Mashiach] Jesus Christ is [Adonai] Lord, to the glory of [Yahweh] God the Father”. Philippians 2: 5 -1.

Thank You Gracious Yahweh, My Father, that upon the return of Yahushua to Heaven, His throne, after His Death and Resurrection almost two thousand years ago; You did not leave us comfortless or as orphans. Instead, out of Your great love for Us the children of men, You sent us the gift of the Ruach Ha Kodesh (the Holy Spirit); Whom You sent to earth ten days after Yahushua returned to Heaven.

Thank You Father that You sent the Ruach Ha Kodesh to be our Comforter, Helper, Teacher and Guide, among the many things He does for us, the children of men. Thank You too, loving Father, that You also sent Him to give us power to continue to do the works Yahushua did while He was upon the earth; as well as to be with us and to prepare and help us to be ready at all times to meet Yahushua, our blessed Saviour, Adonai (Lord) and King (Acts 1: 8).

Loving Yahweh, in the righteous Name of Yahushua, Who died for the sins of the world (Matthew 26,27), and through the power of the Ruach Ha Kodesh, Whom You have sent to be our Comforter, Helper, Teacher and Guide (John 14: 16-18, 26; John 16:13), thank You for the preaching of the Good News of the Kingdom of Heaven, for Yahushua’s saving grace; and for His Life, Death, Resurrection and Ascension to Heaven for us. Thus the Good News of the Gospel acts as a constant reminder:
  • Of Yahushua’s great love for us, which caused Him to give up His glory and His throne in Heaven; then He took a human body and was born into the world as a Baby.

  • That He came down to our level and lived as an ordinary human being, so that He could feel our pains and suffering and enter into our experiences, which enabled Him to relate fully with us. Thank You that although He was so close to us, and our experiences, He did NOT sin.

  • That while He ministered upon earth, He taught us how to love and care for our fellow men. This He did by preaching and teaching the Good News of Salvation, and by His deeds of compassion, whereby He healed the sick and all manner of diseases; cleansed the lepers, cast out demons, raised the dead, gave sight to the blind and hearing to the deaf, among the numerous miracles which He performed.

  • That Yahushua knew what He would suffer to pay the price for our salvation but He did not flinch from the ordeal. Instead, He willingly suffered the persecution and scorn, mockings, beatings, nailing to the Cross and extreme torture before He died for us on the torture stake, the Cross, in great agony, and took our sins and the death we deserved. Thus, He has saved every man, woman and child (who will accept His sacrifice for them), from their sins and from the torments of hell which will be followed by far greater torments in the Lake of fire and brimstone!!

  • That by His death on the Cross for us, He paid the price for our salvation, which He continues to offer FREE of charge to all who will accept His gift of grace and mercy.

  • That You, Yahweh, our Father, raised Yahushua from the dead three days after His death, and thus He conquered death and the grave for us, thus assuring eternal life to ALL who accept Him as their Saviour.

  • That forty days after His Resurrection from the dead, Yahushua ascended to Heaven, His throne, in visible form, where He is seated at the right hand of You, our Heavenly Father.

  • That He is our High Priest and Advocate, Who is interceding before You, gracious Yahweh, on behalf of those who come to Him, in order that they will be forgiven of their sins and be covered with His righteousness. Thus they will be made righteous and be as though they have never sinned.

    Therefore, You have given us Your assurance in the following Scripture Passages:

Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto [Yahweh] God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. Hebrews 7: 25.

14Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, [Yahushua] Jesus the Son of [Yahweh] God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 “For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin”. 16 “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need”. Hebrews 4: 14-16.

My little children, these things write I unto you, “that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with [Yahweh] the Father, [Yahushua Ha Mashiach] Jesus Christ the righteous”: 2And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. 1 John 1: 1, 2.

Likewise, we have the following assurance from Yahushua:

  • That He has prepared homes in Heaven, His dwelling place, for all who will accept His love and sacrifice for them, as He has promised us in John 14: 1-3.
  • That He is Coming back very Soon for all who have accepted His love and sacrifice for them and those who are yet to accept His love and sacrifice for them before the door of mercy is forever closed!!
  • That He is coming back for His saints who have accepted Him as Adonai (Lord), to take them to Heaven, His dwelling place, where they will be with Him for one thousand years. That after the one thousand years are completed, He will Return with His saints to Planet Earth and completely cleanse it with fire, following which He will make a new heaven and a new earth for them; where they will live with Him forever in His kingdom of love, joy, righteousness and peace forever; free from sin, sicknesses, diseases, sufferings, heartaches, pains, griefs and deaths; as it were originally before sin entered and marred this world (Revelation 20:4; Revelation 21: 1-5).

    Thank You gracious Yahweh for the gift of the Ruach Ha Kodesh (Holy Spirit), Whom You sent to this world ten days after the return of Yahushua to Heaven, almost two thousand years ago (Acts 2: 1-4). Thank You blessed Adonai that You have sent the Ruach Ha Kodesh, not only to be our Comforter, Teacher and Guide, but also to convict the world of “sin”, of “righteousness” and of “judgment”, and to guide those who accept Yahushua into all “truths” (John 16: 8,13).

Loving Yahushua, thank You for coming to this sinful world to show us the way of love and compassion for our fellowmen by Your example and by the miracles You performed, including healing the sick and infirm, casting out devils, cleansing the lepers, restoring sight to the blind, hearing to the deaf and raising the dead to life. Thank You for the spotless life You lived here upon earth and the time You spent teaching and preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven, the Kingdom of Grace, here upon earth.

Thank You, gracious Yahushua, that you bore our sins and then suffered and died on our behalf in order that You could redeem us from Satan, the adversary; and from his curse of Sin and Death and from all shame, dishonour, rejection and condemnation. Thank You for paying the full price for our redemption, which You gladly and willingly bore in Your own body. Thus of your own free will, You took our sins and suffered for us before You died upon the cross in our place. Thank You for Your great un-matched and un-equalled love for us and the death which You took for us, Yahushua, when You died upon the Cross for us and purchased our salvation. Thank You that You have lovingly given to us Your SALVATION FREE OF CHARGE. In turn, all that You require from us is that we accept You as our Saviour, and obey Your teachings and commands to Us.

Thank You gracious Saviour, Yahushua, that Your awesome, grand and glorious Return to Planet Earth will be very Soon as You come for Your children. Thank You that the Good News of Your love and saving grace, the Gospel of the Kingdom is now being preached in the entire world as a witness in fulfilment of Matthew 24: 14:

And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

Thank You that we are living in the time when You will Return to this world!! Thus we can now look forward to that great and wonderful Day, when You will come and deliver Your people from this evil and troubled world of sin. You will then reward them with eternal life with you, first in Heaven, where You dwell, and where they will spend one thousand years with You our loving King. Following that time You will bring back Your saints to this world, where You will make a new heaven and a new earth for their eternal habitation in Your kingdom of love, peace and righteousness. Praise and thanks to You our loving Saviour! Thus along with all Your children here upon earth who are preaching the Good News of Your saving grace and salvation, and of Your Soon Return; we will be with You for the rest of eternity.

Loving Saviour, through Your love for us the children of men, You have sent this Message of Your IMMINENT RETURN, through the Ruach Ha Kodesh to the world. You have sent it that they know of the seriousness of these times and of the nearness of Your awesome, glorious and magnificent Return to this world for Your loved ones. You have done this so that they will know what is about to happen in this world and to give them the opportunity to accept You, gracious Yahushua, and to be ready for Your awesome, grand and glorious Return to this world for Your children.

Blessed Yahushua, Thank You that You alone are the “WAY”, the “TRUTH” and the “LIFE”; and the Only One through Whom we can come to Yahweh, our Father, and have everlasting life (John 14:6). Thank You also that by Your blood, which was shed during Your suffering and death for us, we are cleansed from our sins. Likewise, by the brutal beatings You received as You suffered for us, we are healed from all our diseases (Isaiah 53).

Loving Saviour, it is NOT Your will that anyone should perish, that is the reason You became sin for us (2 Corinthians 5:21; 1 Peter 2:22) and took the suffering and death we deserved, when You took the brutal beatings, suffered extreme torture and then willingly gave up Your life by crucifixion, the cruellest death that could be meted out on that torture stake, the Cross!! Thus You have already paid the price for the salvation of every man, woman and child here upon earth. In love, therefore, You have sent this Message to give everyone the opportunity to know what You have done for them, and that You are NOW ready to Return to Planet Earth for all those who have accepted You as their Saviour; and for those who are yet to be gathered into Your kingdom before the final proclamation is made by You, that time will be no more!!

I thank You loving Yahushua, that You did not only suffer and die for the sins of the human race here upon earth, but since Your return to Heaven, You have also completed the mansions and the glorious things you promised in John 14: 1-3. Therefore, we, Your children, look forward to Your Return to fulfil Your promise to us.

Gracious Yahushua, by this Message, You are also giving everyone the opportunity to accept Your FREE Gift of SALVATION and receive You, Yahushua, as their personal Saviour from sin and Death. You are thus giving all those who will accept Your FREE GIFT OF GRACE, time to do so. Thus enabling them to be saved in Your eternal kingdom in Glory and share with You everlasting life in Heaven, Your throne and dwelling place, This life with You will continue in the new earth, which You will make.

By Your grace gracious Saviour, may each one from the Monarchs on the throne, to the poorest person on the street see their danger, should they reject Your gift of Salvation! Most of all, may they see their need to be saved by You, Who died to save them. Therefore, may they open the doors of their hearts and invite You in, while You are still knocking at those doors (Revelation 3: 20) for soon that opportunity will pass.
