Your word, Lord , is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens. Your faithfulness continues through all generations; you established the earth, and it endures.
Psalm 119:89-90 NIV
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
Luke 21:33 NIV
God spoke to the world into existence. It is through His word that He made all things on earth and through His word, made flesh in Christ Jesus that this world has been saved. We often promise people and assure them, by giving them our word, if we value and hold true to ourselves our word, how much more valuable is God's word then? Will not God's word hold true?
Abraham, Noah, and Mary all of them obeyed God through his word and this obedience came from keeping his laws first and then doing as He revealed. When you keep his commandments, you will be able to discern His will for you. When you submit to His will, you fulfill your purpose of life, therefore obedience comes first. Come to think of it, Abraham was asked to sacrifice his son, Noah was told to build a boat, Mary was told she would conceive although she was a virgin. We all know what they did, they obeyed. Therefore we are called to obey his word, whether at the moment we understand it or not, for when we do, we will find life in all its abundance.
I pray that you put loving God our Father and keeping his word as a priority in your life. Like Jesus may you be obedient to all that He asks of you and may His Holy Spirit give you understanding, wisdom, and courage to continue on this your chosen path. Amen
God Bless you and your loved ones :)
