Text: Amos 3:3
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
For you to enjoy the blessings of God’s covenant you must walk closely with Him.
The song writer says,
“When we walk with the Lord, in the light of His Word, What a glory He sheds on our way;
while we do His good will, He abides with us still, and with all who will trust and obey.
“In fellowship sweet, we will sit at His feet, or we’ll walk by His side in the way; what He says we will do; where He sends, we will go; we will never fear, only trust and obey.”
Some people want to enjoy the blessings of Abraham but are not ready walk with the God of Abraham. Prophet Amos asked in today’s text, “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” Amos 3:3. Of course not! Two cannot walk together except they be agreed. In the case of God’s covenant, to agree means to submit yourself to God and to resist the devil.
To agree is to submit your will to the will of God. It is to say, with your actions, ‘Not my will, but thy will be done’
To agree is to put the flesh under the control of the Holy Spirit. To put the flesh under is to crucify and be dead to it and its accompanying passion.
Prophetic Nugget: Receive grace to agree to the terms of the covenant and enjoy the blessings thereof in Jesus name.
