Deuteronomy 7:9
“Therefore know that the LORD your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments;
“Therefore know that the LORD your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments;
God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. 1Cor 1:9
When God says something or has a plan - it WILL come to pass. Just because we waiver in our little human minds, typically our thoughts are based on our circumstances and emotions, this does not change the fact that God has said something. We are not keeping in perspective the BIG picture, the whole of eternity as God does.
The Lord of hosts has sworn, saying,
“Surely, as I have thought, so it shall come to pass,
And as I have purposed, so it shall stand:
“Surely, as I have thought, so it shall come to pass,
And as I have purposed, so it shall stand:
“God is not a man, that He should lie,
Nor a son of man, that He should repent.
Has He said, and will He not do?
Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?
Nor a son of man, that He should repent.
Has He said, and will He not do?
Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?
Why can we not just take HIS Word for what it says...literally? Yet
when we get a note from someone or talk to them, do we not literally take what it says and believe it?
If Aunt Sally wrote to you and said she was coming for Christmas, we would all expect to see her at Christmas...Right?
So why is it so different with the Word of God? The one who GAVE His ONLY Son, to die for us, thats YOU and
me, how shall he not also freely give us all things?
Our disbelief toward the Word of God for our life today; It ought not be this way.
My encouragement for you (and myself) today is this...get in your knower, so that you know that you know, in your heat of hearts ~ GOD IS FAITHFUL!
If He has said something to you, if He has placed a desire in you, IT WILL BE!
Take heart, Jesus overcame this natural garbage you and I deal with, and is now seated beside God in Heaven
John 16:33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”
We will too!
