OMER 42



“Today is forty-two days which are six weeks of the Omer.”

Theme of the Week: Yesod - Intimacy
Theme of the Day: Malchut - Majesty
Overall Theme: The Majesty of His Intimacy


Psalm 105:4 Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore.

The KJV Key Word Study Bible has this header over the Psalm, “God takes care of His people.” The Stone’s Tanak comments, “God guides the course of history; seemingly unrelated events were tied together to bring about a society of all mankind governed by God’s holy Torah.”
YHWH is a King and knows how to be Majestic without being aloof or untouchable. HE can be intimate with His people while retaining His Majesty. His Kingdom Maw (Torah) touches on the most intimate activities in human affairs and raises them to a majestic holy act. King YHWH knows and cares for every individual, knows them by name, and keeps account of the hairs on their head and how many tears they shed and even if gone unnoticed, this Almighty, Royal King is intimate with His subjects in a Majestic way and models how we as Ambassadors ought to  cary ourselves and care for each other as HE does us.
The Traditional Psalm to read is Psalm 105:1-11:

O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people. Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works. Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD. Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore. Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth; O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen. He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth. He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations. Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac; And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant: Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:

“Abba, Indeed because of Your Infinite Wisdom and keen balance, balancing extremes of Majesty and Intimacy You are the King of Kings and Lord of Lords and above all other gods. In Yeshua’s Name, Ameyn.”
