Do you have a covenant commitment with Almighty God?

Scholars tell us that the oldest chapter in the Bible is the Book of Job. What does the Lord our God say about His relationship with this man Job? “. . . . . that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil” Job 1:8

Job said: "Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there. The LORD gave {me everything that I have}, and {it all belongs to} the LORD {and if He wants to He} has taken away;  Blessed be the Name of the LORD."

In all this Job did not sin nor charge God with wrong. Job 1:21-22

Ladies and Gentlemen, is this the kind of relationship that we have with our Heavenly Father? Is our total trust and confidence in a Loving Father who only asks that we believe in His Son?  All of the heroes of faith written in the Bible (Hebrews 11) never saw or knew about Christ Jesus had come in the flesh, born of virgin, healed the sick, help the lame to walk, and gave sight to the blind. Abraham believed God and it was reckoned to him as Righteousness. Noah found grace in the Eyes of the Lord and obeyed His instructions so that he and his family was saved. However, they never knew Christ became the ultimate sacrifice and died for their sins. King David and his son king Solomon never knew the Atonement and the Redemption of Christ’s Resurrection from the dead as a personal relationship with Jesus!

My Lord and My God! We have such an advantage today knowing what we know from our perspective of all of history.  Everything that Jesus says and everything that Jesus did while He walked among us was to prepare us for Life Eternal with Him in Heaven.

I am not a Christian because I go to church and worship Him; I go to church and Worship Him because I am a Christian!

I do not read the Bible because I have Wisdom and Revelation Knowledge; I have some Wisdom and some Revelation Knowledge because I read the Bible and BELIEVE what it says about me, my life and my family.  The best gift that I can give my children and my grand children and even my great grand children is to share my faith with them.  I love to tell the story of Jesus and His Love!

He knitted me together in my mother’s womb!

Jesus called me out of darkness and into His Marvelous Light!

Jesus gave me a new heart, not of stone, but of love and tender mercies and He wrote His Laws and His Words upon my heart.

Jesus renewed my mind!  He healed my body!  He made me whole!  He washed away all my sins!  He restored my soul!  I will fear no evil, because His abiding Presence is always with me!

I am overwhelmed by Your Love Lord Jesus for me!

Thank You Lord for hearing my prayers! I know that You always hear the prayers of my heart! 

Amen and Amen!
