Only 3 times in the new testament is the word 'Abba' used for "Father," and it's in Aramaic, meaning an intimate relationship with our 'Daddy!'
Mark 14:36 And He was saying, “Abba! Father! All things are possible for You; remove this cup from Me; yet not what I will, but what You will (NASB 1995).”

Galatians 4:6 in all English translations
The Bible is very clear that Jesus came to show us The Way to The Father, but are we in an intimate, personal relationship with The One Who so Loves us that He gave His One & Only Begotten Son to save the world? Jesus says in John 17, "Just as The Father sent Me, so I Am sending you!" Paul the Apostle asks, "How are they going to know if we don't tell them?"
The Word, "Father" is in the scriptures more than 1,000 times, so we ought to pay attention to what The Holy Spirit is saying to The Church/Ecclesia, His 'Called Out Ones' in 2026!
It's believed by most biblical scholars that Jesus only took 15 minutes to give us what is called, 'The Sermon On The Mount,' in Matthew 5-7. Although this is basically short and sweet, He uses The Word, "Father" 17 times in this portion of Holy Script alone. I often say, when God is speaking, "Moses, Moses" or Jesus is saying, "Verily, Verily/Truely, Truely," They're trying to get our attention, like when The Bible says, "Behold," meaning look, see, fix your eyes upon this! Even Jesus says, "You will go to The Father, In My Name." I'm not trying to be dogmatic here, but I do believe that Jesus only said and did what The Father told Him to say and do, so when He tells us to "Go and do likewise," we need to take Him far more seriously, like our 'father,' Abraham, as recorded in both the old and new testament, he took God at His Word and acted upon It, because Jesus' ½ brother tells us that "Faith without works is dead." As we leave the old year behind and press on into the new, let us go boldly into our future, praying in the Prophetic Word like Daniel. Every disciple of Christ, meaning Messiah, The Anointed One, should be standing on the promises of God, knowing that they are yes and amen in Jesus! We're told that everything that can be shaken will be shaken, except for the Kingdom Of God. Paul tells us, "The Kingdom Of God Is Righteous, Peace & Joy In The Holy Spirit!" He declared that his righteousness was as filthy rags, but all believers are declared righteous, "The Righteousness Of God In Christ Jesus." You and I are ambassadors, representing Jesus everywhere we go! He Is our Shalom, peace, wholeness, fullness and blessing. The Joy Of The LORD Is our strength, The Fruit Of The Holy Spirit, according to Galatians 5 and in our weakness, God shows Himself Mighty in our midst! I anticipate great things in this new year because, "God Is Faithful, by Whom you have been called." He's The Hope that Is within the veil, The Hope Of Israel, The Hope Of the nations, The Hope Of the world and The Hope that will not disappoint us, according to His Word, Will & Way + He watches over It to perform It, so let us go boldly into our future together, knowing that He goes before us in all things, He's with us and for us, He'll never leave or forsake us, He's above you, below you, beside you, behind you and it's Christ in you, The Hope of Glory, God's manifest Presence in 2026 and in His Presence is fullness of Joy!

A Blessed 2026 to you and yours with Shalom,
