Abba, Daddy, and Your Faith
Monday, February 3, 2025
How do we pray? There are seminars, books, teachings, and all sorts of things on how to pray. Messiah, who knows best, taught us how to pray. He started out by saying, "Our Father". Romans 8:15 says, "...we cry out, Abba, Father." Abba is the Hebrew word for Daddy. The Lord wants us to forget our ideas of prayer- the complexities, the formulas- and learn the most profound truth in the word Abba. Learn from that little baby in the cradle. It doesn't know many words, but when it's sad, hurting, or in need, it cries out. So when you are sad or hurting, cry out. Pour out your heart to God. When you have a need, bring it to Him. Also, when you have joy, share it with Him. Let your joy overflow in worship and praise and, like the baby, cry, "Abba." There's no need for eloquent words. Simply be like a baby resting in your Father's loving arms. You don't have to know the right formula. Just pour out your heart to Him. Please keep it simple, keep it basic, and keep it Abba.
From Message #476 - Unlearning to Pray
