AGREEMENT / GIVING YOUR WORD

Blessings to you and yours, now it is my prayer that you ask the Lord Jesus Christ for the Wisdom to truly understand this weeks message. We will be looking into " KEEPING OUR PROMISE, OUR WORD. " Agreement / Covenant is a legally binding obligation (Promise). Throughout history God made covenants with people - he would keep his side if they would keep theirs. Point of fact God's chosen people the Israelites spent 40 years on a journey that should have lasted 11 days. Listen closely it wasn't distance that stood between them and the Promised Land. It was the condition of their hearts. Don't break the agreement you made to follow God. As mentioned Israel did not have to spend 40 years on the way to the Promised Land. Once again God sentenced them to wilderness wandering because they rejected his love, rebelled against his authority, ignored his commands for right living, and willfully broke their end of the agreement made in Exodus 19:8 and 24:3-8. In short, they disobeyed God. We often make life's journey more difficult than necessary by disobedience. Accept God's Love,Please read and follow his commands in the Bible, and make a promise to stick with God whatever your situation. You will find that your life will be less complicated and more rewarding. LAST POINT: Those of us who know Jesus as our Personal Lord and Savior must agree to God's plan for us. Now, if we are going to complete the task(s) God has given us, we must fully agree to his plan, pledge ourselves to obey it, and put his principles into action. Agreeing to God's plan means both knowing what the plan is (as found in the Bible) and carrying it out daily. Until Next Time... Jim,
