May it be Your will, Avinu, our G-d and the G-d of our forefathers, that You inaugurate this month of Kislev upon us for goodness and for blessing.
Abba, Father, may You give us long life, a life of peace – Shalom
a life of goodness – Tovah
a life of blessing – Bracha
a life of sustenance – Parnassa
a life of physical health – Hilutz Atzamot
a life in which there is a fear of heaven and fear of sin – Yirat Shamayim ve’ Yirat Chet
a life in which there is no humiliation – Ein Busha u’Chlimah
a life of wealth and honor – Osher ve’Kavod
a life in which we will have love of Torah and awe and reverence of G-d – Ahavat Torah ve’Yirat HaShem
a life walked more fully for Your glory in Adoneinu Yeshua, our Messiah and Lord.
Amen. Selah.
Hi,can you tell me why this is considered a month that shines in the darkness?
Hi Tamara, Kislev falls during the winter months when the days are getting shorter and the nights longer. It is in this month that we light the lights of Hanukkah. It’s a month that many associate with Yeshua – the Light that shines in the darkness (John 1:5) – either his birth or conception. Keren touches on much more in the video. If you have a chance to watch the video and still have questions I know Keren would be more than happy to answer them. Blessings
