Читать книгу Promises for Dynamic Living - Linda Knight - Страница 12

“Hear me, you who know what is right, you people who have my law in your hearts: Do not fear the reproach of men or be terrified by their insults.

For the moth will eat them up like a garment; the worm will devour them like wool. But my righteousness will last forever, my salvation through all generations.”

Promise: God promises believers that His righteousness is eternal and His salvation will endure throughout all generations.

When you play a game, who do you choose to be on your team? Usually, I like to choose the most competent person for the game. Who is most competent when it comes to life and reaching godly goals? God! He is greater than anything I can ever face. He assures me that He will endure eternally and He will save me. I need to believe and not focus on the turmoil that surrounds me. I will keep my focus on Almighty God!

Lessons and Truths:

1.God’s Word can abide in my heart.

2.God’s Word teaches rightness for living.

3.Men are temporal and God is eternal.

4.Men use fear to control others; God is greater than any of their plans.

6.God’s plan of salvation is immutable—the same yesterday, today, and forever, unchanging from generation to generation.

Prayer: Lord, teach me through your Word as I seek to claim your promises. Through me, show your righteousness to others. Give me courage to face the tough situations without fear and depend upon you for strength and victory. I am so thankful that you are unchanging and for the assurance, which your character brings to my life. Amen.
