Not A Word

Something to Think About

Not A Word

“Not a word failed of any good thing which the LORD had spoken to the house of Israel. All came to pass.” Joshua 21:45 NKJV

God is faithful to fulfill His promises. We as Israel lose the path of God we wander away from His goodness. God never changes His path is still the same. He still is seeking those that would obey Him and share in His salvation and glory.

33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6:33(KJV)

Contractual Obligations

Something to think about.

Contractual Obligations

And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of the Lord your God. Deuteronomy 28: 2

 Here is the question, do you expect to receive the blessing of the Lord? "IF" you obey the Lord do you expect Him to fulfill his promises?  

Let me give you my interpretation of this verse.  
I, God in a written contract, contractually obligate myself to fulfill the terms of this agreement. Stated as such; If you obey me, I will bless you in the following ways.   (The ways are written in Deuteronomy 28:1-14

If you are not being blessed by God, there is only one reason why not. You are not in obedience to God. This contract does not say you will be without trials and conflicts it says He will bless you if you obey Him.  
 
Do you not receive because you do not believe? Do you not receive because you do not trust Him? What is holding you back from receiving what he has contractually obligated Himself to do? Do you understand? "These blessing will overtake you." The way it is written is almost as if the writer is saying, these blessings are going to attack you.  

As for me, I want "all these blessings, " and all I have to do is "obey  the voice of the Lord."
I pledge from this day forward to open my ears that I may hear the voice of the lord. open my heart that I can receive everything he has for me.

Before the Ages

Something to think about.

Before the Ages

in hope of eternal life, which God, who never lies, promised before the ages began. Titus 1:2

We read this, do we pass over? Do we simply say that's nice and move on.  Stop! Look this is the quintessential promise of God before anything existed it was Gods intent that we should spend eternity with Him.  

This thought that God intended that you should spend eternity with Him, is sufficient to keep your mind in awe for several days.

Dwelling Place

Something to think about.

Dwelling Place

Because you have made the Lord your dwelling place—the Most High, who is my refuge—10 no evil shall be allowed to befall you, no plague come near your tent.11 For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.12 On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.13 You will tread on the lion and the adder; the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.14 "Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name.15 When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him.16 With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation."

I want to make the Lord my dwelling place where no harm can come my way. Where His angels can protect me, and keep me from harm. Where He can hear me and answer me. Where I can possess all of His promises.  Psalms 91:9-16
