The Faithful God
Reading: Hebrew 10:22-23
22: Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.
23: Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is FAITHFUL
Just as God is committed to seeing that we excel and prosper here on earth as Jeremiah declares, For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jerem. 10:23)
Yet it wouldn't happen until you have done your part.
Your own part is enumerated in verse 22:
1. Draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith.
2. Have your hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience. (Romans 12:2)
3. Have your bodies washed with pure water. (John 16:13, Act 11:16)
Then you can "hold fast", not letting it slip from you by constantly praying hard for his will and doing it.
While holding fast the confession of your hope without wavering, which is a function of your faith!
You must maintain an attitude of praise, Moses said; "God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?" (Numbers 23:19)
Take him for his word, persevere, keep trusting Him and your portion will be testimonies galore.
Remember, "He who promised is faithful."
Good day and do have a bright Tuesday!!
