Adoration Prayer Book

I am finally able to have a moment to direct my attention to a book that I have been wanting to consume for some time, Adoration prayer book by Bob Hartley. I am thinking of posting as I go through the book.

The first declaration regarding God is that He is the abundantly available God. When I read this declaration I can't help but think of the instances through scripture where God's availability is abundant. Beginning in Genesis, He is a God that is ever present walking through the garden giving Adam an abundant provision of time. Secondly I think about how he stayed with and provided for 40 years availability to His people. He made heavenly bread fall from heaven, He was a cloud by day and fire by night in abundance. Then I think about Jesus and how abundantly available He was on the cross. All of Him hung on that tree. He was a word picture of when Abraham told Issac, The Lord will provide the sacrifice. When Abraham was ready to be obedient to God fully, then God was abundantly available with the sacrifice. It says that the ram was caught by his own strength. Jesus was caught by His own strength too. No one on earth could force God to die, Jesus alone had that authority- to lay down His life and take it up again! Pow WOW! Jesus You are the Abundant God, Abundant Blood Abundantly available so that any that call upon Your Name will be saved.

I offer a sacrifice of thankfulness to You Lord
In Jesus' Name AMEN!
