Text: Hebrews 10:22-23
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
The word of God is full of promises. He gives promises in order to give an assurance or guarantee for your future. His promises are his covenant. Fortunately, God is a keeper of his promises- a covenant-keeping God.
However, the fulfilment of his promises is largely based on relationship -a mutual one. He is not just interested in being your God but also your partner and friend. Jesus said, “Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you”-John 15:15.
He knows your struggles, your limitations and weaknesses. Come to him as you are and open up. The more you spend quality time in his presence, the more he transforms you into his image. The fire of his presence will consume all things that do not bring glory to him in your life.
If you will keep your own part of the deal he is faithful and just to play his part. Therefore, since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, and make holiness perfect in the fear of God.
Let us draw near unto the Lord with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience. Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)-Hebrews 10:22-23.
Wait on him patiently, God will never fail.
Prayer Nugget- Father, thank you because you are reliable and dependable. By your grace I will not fail you in Jesus name.
