Don’t Give Up On Yourself: God Will Not Deny His NAME And His WORD Concerning You – He’s Immutable!

“For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife. 17 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the IMMUTABILITY of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: 18 that by TWO IMMUTABLE things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: 19 which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; 20 whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec” Hebrews 6:16-20.

“For ever, O Lord, thy WORD is SETTLED in heaven. 90 Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth” Psalms 119:89-90.

“. . . 13 Let them praise the NAME of the Lord: for his NAME alone is EXCELLENT; his glory is ABOVE the EARTH and HEAVEN” Psalms 148:1-14.

STOP THAT SIN ACT – STOP  SINNING TO MAKE A LIVING

STOP THAT SIN ACT – STOP  SINNING TO MAKE A LIVING: GOD IS WEARY OF YOUR REPENTANCE – STOP IT NOW AND LIVE!

I don’t know if it’s you this is meant for today – but I could hear a strong voice of God saying – shout it loud for someone there to hear, know and be aware that He’s bored of your continuous habit of SINNING and REPENTING – REPENTANCE – in order to make a living; much more, to keep or sustain that success and excellence in an ILLUSION.

It may look odd in HUMAN PERSPECTIVE to hear God say or ask you to STOP the act of SINFUL deed and kind, but I do know that God wants WHOSOEVER to have a SORROW FREE LIFE in THEIR BLESSINGS, and in ALL THEY DO IN LIFE as His children; even as it’s written:

“The BLESSING of the Lord, it MAKETH RICH, and he ADDETH no SORROW with it” Proverbs 10:22.

“BLESSED be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath BLESSED us with all spiritual BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ” Ephesians 1:3.

I know and understand one thing about God – He gives the enabling gracious power for His own to GET, ACQUIRE and CREATE the desired purposeful goal, the position, and place of dignity – meaning, the ENDURING blessings without sorrow and regrets. Hence you need to stop, for God can’t be a fool as to mere men; He may ESCHEW you soonest, He ABHORS your doing and He’s WEARY of always giving you another chance and opportunity to make it right again.

“But thou shalt REMEMBER the Lord thy God: for it is HE that GIVETH thee POWER (RIGHT, PRIVILEGE, GRACE) to GET (CREATE, ACQUIRE) wealth, that he may ESTABLISH his COVENANT which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day” Deuteronomy 8:18 (Emphasis Mine).

Will you now STOP? Has God warned you before? Isn’t it? I mean directly or and through someone else or in your subconscious thoughts? And You PROMISED NEVER AGAIN.

Watch out I say, and PLEASE STOP for your good and others about you. Don’t call it or see it as a MISTAKE or ACCIDENTAL – I say ABSTAIN and FLEW from every of the APPEARANCE of the KNOWN SINFUL HABITS.

IT’S NOT A BLESSING AND DOES NOT WORTH IT IF YOU HAD TO SIN TO GET IT, ACHIEVE IT AND OR GET THERE – THAT POSITION OR POSSESSION! SAVE YOUR NOW AND TOMORROW BY TODAY’S LIFE DOING.

Will you PLEASE STOP if this concerns you? GOD LOVES YOU. JESUS LOVES AND CARES ABOUT YOU and EVEN SO DO I IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.

IT’S NOT A BLESSING AND DOES NOT WORTH IT IF YOU HAD TO SIN TO GET IT and or GET THERE and or ACHIEVE THAT SUCCESS, EXCELLENCE, AND SUCH LIKE.

PLEASE STOP. I plead to you today – STOP. Take advantage of God’s LOVE, MERCIES, FORGIVENESS, and this TIMELY reminder today, to make a new start for the new you in Christ. HAVE FAITH IN GOD FOR YOUR NEW DAWN IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD.

Be Blessed today and Evermore as you make a fresh start with God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL TRUTH WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For who shall have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan thee? or who shall go aside to ask how thou doest? 6 Thou hast forsaken me, saith the Lord, thou art gone BACKWARD: therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy thee; I AM WEARY WITH REPENTING” Jeremiah 15:5-6.

“Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. 22 ABSTAIN from ALL APPEARANCE OF EVIL. 23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your WHOLE SPIRIT AND SOUL AND BODY BE PRESERVED BLAMELESS UNTO THE COMING OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. 24 FAITHFUL is he that CALLETH YOU, who also will DO it” 1 Thessalonians 5:21-24.

“For God so LOVED the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that WHOSOEVER believeth in him should NOT perish, but HAVE everlasting life. 17 For God SENT not his Son into the world to CONDEMN the world; but that the world through him MIGHT be SAVED. 18 He that BELIEVETH on him is not CONDEMNED: but he that BELIEVETH NOT is CONDEMNED ALREADY, because he hath NOT BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:16-18.

“But thou shalt REMEMBER the Lord thy God: for it is HE that GIVETH thee POWER (RIGHT, PRIVILEGE, GRACE) to GET (CREATE, ACQUIRE) wealth, that he may ESTABLISH his COVENANT which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day” Deuteronomy 8:18 (Emphasis Mine).

“He that TILLETH (CULTIVATES) his land shall have PLENTY of bread: but he that FOLLOWETH after VAIN persons shall have poverty enough. 20 A FAITHFUL man shall ABOUND with blessings: but he that maketh HASTE to be RICH shall not be INNOCENT. 21 To have RESPECT of persons is not good: for for a PIECE of bread that man will TRANSGRESS. 22 He that HASTETH to be RICH hath an EVIL eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him” Proverbs 28:19-22.

“Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a FOUNDATION a stone, a TRIED stone, a PRECIOUS corner stone, a SURE foundation: HE THAT BELIEVETH SHALL NOT MAKE HASTE” Isaiah 28:16.

GIVING THANKS, PRAYERS AND REMEMBERANCE: KNOWING THAT YOUR WORK, LABOUR AND PATIENCE ARE NOT IN VAIN!

There is sufficient cause to remain steadfast in your life in the Lord, as you keep on keeping, on the gracious and graceful kingdom acts.

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye STEDFAST, UNMOVEABLE, always ABOUNDING in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your LABOUR is not in VAIN in the Lord” 1 Corinthians 15:58.

There is the cause to always give THANKS, PRAYERS and REMEMBERANCE for the essence of three gracious and graceful acts in your life in the LORD and His Kingdom advancement. These are:

* The (Your) Work of Faith

* The (Your) Labour of Love

* The (Your) Patience of Hope

You need to give thanks to God always for you and others about you, as you take each passing day step, to advance the CAUSE of God’s Kingdom Business; and to keep the ENEMY and COHORTS at bay. It’s a gracious and graceful synergy to keep one focus as God’s ambassador and representative on this side of the heavenly in the midst of the challenging and difficult times.

Except otherwise, you then need to ponder about them and measure yourself in the light of the scripture if you are indeed standing sure on the gracious and graceful Kingdom acts of the Lord God. And wherein otherwise, awake from your slumbering and backsliding state and get back on your feet again while its day when you need to work and walk in the grace that WORTH REMEMBERANCE. And knowing that every grace and speed will be yours again in the Lord.

I pray you have a blessed, gracious and graceful day, today in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers; 3 remembering without ceasing your WORK OF FAITH, and LABOUR OF LOVE, and PATIENCE OF HOPE in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father; 4 knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God” 1 Thessalonians 1:2-4 (Emphasis Mine).

“And now abideth FAITH, HOPE, LOVE, these three; but the greatest of these is Love” 1 Corinthians 13:13 (Emphasis Mine). 

“For God is not UNJUST (UNRIGHTEOUS, UNFAITHFUL) so as to forget your WORK and the LOVE which you have SHOWN for His name in ministering to [the needs of] the saints (God’s people), as you do. 11 And we desire for each one of you to show the same DILIGENCE [all the way through] so as to realize and enjoy the full ASSURANCE of hope until the end, 12 so that you will not be [spiritually] SLUGGISH (SLOTHFUL), but [will instead be] IMITATORS (FOLLOWERS) of those who through FAITH [lean on God with absolute trust and confidence in Him and in His power] and by PATIENT endurance [even when suffering] are [now] INHERITING the promises” Hebrews 6:10-12 Amplified (Emphasis Mine).

“. . . 12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of UNBELIEF, in departing from the living God. 13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be HARDENED through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we are made PARTAKERS of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence STEDFAST unto the end; 15 while it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, HARDEN not your hearts, as in the provocation” Hebrews 3:7-15.

GOD IS FAITHFUL: BEING FAITHFUL AS FAITHFUL ABRAHAM!

By Leave a Comment

GOD IS FAITHFUL: BEING FAITHFUL AS FAITHFUL ABRAHAM!

As I read, ponder and make up this write up, I recall countless times I have sang and still sing the song: “Abraham Blessings Are Mine”. This I have done for over 45yrs and still counting. And then while working on the cause and course of this month theme, the Lord reminds me again of the Scripture of Galatians 3:9 in a more ASSURED insight and foresight, as written:

“So then THEY which be of FAITH are BLESSED with FAITHFUL ABRAHAM” Galatians 3:9.

How gracious and graceful for one to easily lay claim to be Abraham seed and wants Abraham Blessings; more so, to be God’s friend as Abraham, as we do sing “I Am A Friend Of God”, even as the Scriptures indicate in James 2:23. Yeah, the Scriptures did say in Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29, that as many of us who are of FAITH in Christ Jesus are of Abraham and can share in the Abrahamic BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. This become possible because Abraham was ascribed as FAITHFUL ABRAHAM; this is due to his obedience in believing and being assured of God’s FAITHFULNESS in His promise, to let go of himself and let God be in all about him doing life and living godly.

Abraham was FAITHFUL toward God from the moment the Gospel as said in Galatians 3:8 was PREACHED to him; and I repeat, that the Gospel of God in FAITH was PREACHED to him, wherein he BELIEVED and acted upon accordingly and unreservedly. He believed God, and in obedience through FAITH, he journeyed with God in FAITHFULNESS until death as in his memoir in the Holy writ of Genesis 12-25. And all who came afterwards in FAITH have shared in his BLESSEDNESS with God, in that he was FAITHFUL as ascribed as – FAITHFUL ABRAHAM.

Let us see some FAITHFUL characteristics of FAITHFUL ABRAHAM that we can learn of him and can use as a measure to ascertain in SHARING in his GOSPEL enabling for us today:

  1. He was FAITHFUL to OBEY when he received the call of God without conferring with flesh and blood. He left all, his people inclusive, to cleave to God in faith. How I wish we can learn of him, on how to LEAVE and CLEAVE to a CAUSE – PURPOSE. Genesis 12; Galatians 1:12-17; Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:5 (Make 10:7).

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL to depend on God’s provisions when tried and tested by his nephew – Lot – who was in his greediness on business deals and acquisitions with him. He turned his face to God, instead of having a fight on Earthly possessions that takes people lives instead of offering life. Genesis 13; Luke 12:15; Mark 10:28-3; Philippians 4:13, 19; 2 Corinthians 9:8; 2 Corinthians 3:4-6.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL to pay up in FAITH at no pressure or dispute, the TITHE of his earnings – Genesis 14; Hebrews 7:1-9; Hebrews 3:1-2; Matthew 23:23; Matthew 22:15-22; 2 Corinthians 8-9; Luke 6:38; Luke 8:1-3; Acts 20:32-35; (Proverbs 3:9-10; Malachi 3:10-12; Deuteronomy 26:1-19; Leviticus 27:30-33).

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL toward God in Covenant in FAITH, being assured that God will do the needful – Genesis 15-17; Philippians 1:6; 1 John 5:14-15; Hebrews 10:23, 35-39.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL to receive and entertained Angelic visitors unaware and at no question or cost. Genesis 18; Hebrews 13:1-3; Romans 12:9-21;

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL to intercede in prayers for His family and Nation in crises and awaiting God’s judgement, peradventure God might show mercy – Genesis 18/19; Isaiah 59:16; Ezekiel 22:30; Romans 8:26:26-27; Isaiah 53:12; Romans 8:34; Hebrews 7:25.

 

  1. He was such FAITHFUL to let GO of his wife when challenge, in order to fulfil PURPOSE in God; and God foreseeing his sincerity save him and wife from such challenging test of his marital relationship. Genesis 20; Mark 10:28-31; Colossians 4:17; 1 Corinthians 4:1-2; 1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28-30.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL in the midst of the CONFUSION he find himself by the errors and failures he made in course of time in his decision. And God was there to turn his MESS into a MESSAGE because he was troubled and repentant. Genesis 21; 2 Thessalonians 3:3; Galatians 1:3-5; 1 Thessalonians 5:24; 1 John 1:9-10.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL to let Go of his precious and most treasured gift – his son Isaac to God, at God’s request and demand, without questioning and arguing with God of His intent. – Genesis 22; Hebrews 11:17-19.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL even at his lost of his dear wife and in bereavement. And turn his lost for legacy, in that by her burying place, he then set up a foundation stone (the land of Canaan) that earmarked that which was to be FULFILL for posterity in God’s Prophecy in MOSES and the Israelites in years to come. Genesis 23; (Galatians 3:17-18; Genesis 15:12-14); 2 Corinthians 1:3-11; John 11:1-45; Romans 12:15; James 5:13.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL in that he was able to create the needed atmosphere that his son Isaac could get married faithfully. Genesis 24; 1 Timothy 4:12; Titus 2:1-8; Ephesians 6:1-4; Ephesians 5:21-33; 1 Peter 3:1-12.

 

  1. He was FAITHFUL to leave an inheritance for his Children as he died in FAITH, fulfiling PURPOSE in FAITHFULNESS. Genesis 25; Proverbs 13:22.

Abraham have FAITH in God’s FAITHFULNESS – being FAITHFUL; that’s why he was prepared from the moment of receiving the GOSPEL of FAITH, to LET GO of himself of anything, counting and accounting that God will take CARE of him no matter what may happen; thus indicating that whatsoever he let go at God’s request, God knows best as He’s a FAITHFUL God to make it up for him in a far better placement than the one he could have held unto and held back with; and in selfishness and in not Believing and Trusting that GOD IS FAITHFUL to keep to His PROMISE.

Today, we as Abraham seed, who are partakers of his enabling in Christ Jesus, how much can it be said, that we are as him, in being called FAITHFUL ABRAHAM. Let us not be the Believers in Christ Jesus stead, who wants the BLESSEDNESS of Abraham but are not PREPARED of the PROCESS in it; especially when that is the part that can fortified and make us grounded and rooted in FAITH and in the FAITH, in Christ Jesus stead, as we share in his blessing.

ABRAHAM was called a friend of God – James 2:23, because of the attribute of being FAITHFUL ABRAHAM. May we be as he’s toward God in Christ Jesus stead I pray for now and always. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Hearken to me, ye that FOLLOW AFTER RIGHTEOUSNESS, ye that seek the Lord: LOOK UNTO THE ROCK whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged. 2 Look unto ABRAHAM YOUR FATHER, and unto SARAH THAT BARE YOU: for I CALLED him alone, and BLESSED him, and INCREASED him. 3 For the Lord shall COMFORT Zion: he will COMFORT all her waste places; and he will make her WILDERNESS like Eden, and her DESERT like the garden of the Lord; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody” Isaiah 51:1-3.

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they WHICH ARE OF FAITH, the same are the CHILDREN of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, IN THEE SHALL ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE BLESSED with FAITHFUL Abraham . . . 13 Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that THE BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith . . . 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29.

“By FAITH Abraham, when he was CALLED to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, OBEYED; and he went out, NOT KNOWING whither he went. 9 By FAITH he sojourned in THE LAND OF PROMISE, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: 10 for he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God. 11 Through FAITH also Sara herself RECEIVED STRENGTH TO CONCEIVE SEED, and was DELIVERED of a child when she was past age, because she judged him FAITHFUL who had promised. 12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable . . . 17 By FAITH Abraham, when he was tried, OFFERED up Isaac: and he that had RECEIVED the promises OFFERED up his only begotten son, 18 of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: 19 ACCOUNTING that God was ABLE to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he RECEIVED him in a FIGURE” Hebrews 11:8-19.

“But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father JUSTIFIED by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 Seest thou how FAITH wrought with his works, and by works was FAITH made perfect? 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the FRIEND of God. 24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only” James 2:20-24.

“As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations, before him whom he BELIEVED, even God, who QUICKENETH the dead, and CALLETH those things which be not as though they were. 18 Who against HOPE believed in HOPE, that he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. 19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara’s womb: 20 he staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; 21 and being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. 22 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness . . .” Romans 4:17-25.

GOD IS FAITHFUL: FAITHFULNESS IS HIS NATURE!

One thing is certain in life and that is – LIKE BEGAT LIKE. A tree doesn’t give birth to an animal or mammal. A Lion doesn’t give birth to a Leopard nor does a Goat give birth to a Sheep even in their proximity of likeness or characteristics.

One needs to know full well that we are the offspring of God, the sheep of His pasture according to the Scriptures – (Acts 17:24-29; Psalms 100:3; 1 John 4:17-18); (John 10:34-35; Psalms 82:6; Genesis 3:5). It then means that we can live a FAITHFUL life and achieve good successes with God when we dare. The other reason that we can achieve success is because we are the seed of Abraham – who was FAITHFUL and prospered when he dare.

The same grace is available to us today despite our challenges to be FAITHFUL and to prosper in Christ Jesus’ stead. 2 Peter 1:2-4; Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29. (See Genesis 13:2; 24:1)

Our God is FAITHFUL God, that is His NATURE. He’s God of FAITHFULNESS – He lives within Himself – His NATURE. And as such, in achieving life’s goals with God in Christ Jesus stead, it would be great for you to look at the nature of God regarding FAITHFULNESS as found of Him in the Holy writ:

  1. God is FAITHFUL to Himself. 2 Timothy 2:13.
  2. God is FAITHFUL to His Word and promises. Hebrews 10:23.
  3. God is FAITHFUL to His relationship. 1 Corinthians 1:9; Hebrews 8:28-30.
  4. God is FAITHFUL to forgive. 1 John 1:9 (5-10).
  5. God is FAITHFUL in agreement. Deuteronomy 7:9.
  6. God is FAITHFUL to establish and deliver. 1 Corinthians 10:13, 2 Thessalonians 3:3.
  7. God is FAITHFUL to accomplish His part in the assignment that He gives to us. 1 Thessalonians 5:24.
  8. God is the/a FAITHFUL creator. 1 Peter 4:19.
  9. . . . and many more of His FAITHFULNESS as in the Holy Writ . . . Kindly read the HOLY BIBLE to know the more.

Considering the above-mentioned nature of God in being FAITHFUL, you can bank on His FAITHFULNESS in His grace and BLESSEDNESS; this will give you the enabling leverage to abound the more, in sharing and partaking of His promises in the REDEMPTION DEED, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“For God so LOVED the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that WHOSOEVER believeth in him should NOT perish, but HAVE everlasting life. 17 For God SENT not his Son into the world to CONDEMN the world; but that the world through him MIGHT be SAVED. 18 He that BELIEVETH on him is not CONDEMNED: but he that BELIEVETH NOT is CONDEMNED ALREADY, because he hath NOT BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:16-18.

“But thou shalt REMEMBER the Lord thy God: for it is he that GIVETH thee POWER (enabling grace) to GET (create, acquire) wealth, that he may ESTABLISH his COVENANT which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day” Deuteronomy 8:18 (Emphasis Mine).

“He that TILLETH (CULTIVATES) his land shall have PLENTY of bread: but he that FOLLOWETH after VAIN persons shall have poverty enough. 20 A FAITHFUL man shall ABOUND with blessings: but he that maketh HASTE to be RICH shall not be INNOCENT. 21 To have RESPECT of persons is not good: for for a PIECE of bread that man will TRANSGRESS. 22 He that HASTETH to be RICH hath an EVIL eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him” Proverbs 28:19-22.

“Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a FOUNDATION a stone, a TRIED stone, a PRECIOUS corner stone, a SURE foundation: HE THAT BELIEVETH SHALL NOT MAKE HASTE” Isaiah 28:16.

GOD IS FAITHFUL: BEING FAITHFUL AS FAITHFUL ABRAHAM!

As I read, ponder and make up this write up, I recall countless times I have sang and still sing the song: “Abraham Blessing Are Mine”. This I have done for over 45yrs and still counting. And then while working on the cause and course of this month theme, the Lord reminds me again of the Scripture of Galatians 3:9 in a more ASSURED insight and foresight, as written:

“So then THEY which be of FAITH are BLESSED with FAITHFUL ABRAHAM” Galatians 3:9.

How gracious and graceful for one to easily lay claim to be Abraham seed and wants Abraham Blessings; more so, to be God’s friend as Abraham, as we do sing “I Am A Friend Of God”, even as the Scriptures indicate in James 2:23. Yeah, the Scriptures did say in Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29, that as many of us who are of FAITH in Christ Jesus are of Abraham and can share in the Abrahamic BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. This become possible because Abraham was ascribed as FAITHFUL ABRAHAM; this is due to his obedience in believing and being assured of God’s FAITHFULNESS in His promise, to let go of himself and let God be in all about him doing life and living godly.

Abraham was FAITHFUL toward God from the moment the Gospel as said in Galatians 3:8 was PREACHED to him; and I repeat, that the Gospel of God in FAITH was PREACHED to him, wherein he BELIEVED and acted upon accordingly and unreservedly. He believed God, and in obedience through FAITH, he journeyed with God in FAITHFULNESS until death as in his memoir in the Holy writ of Genesis 12-25. And all who came afterwards in FAITH have shared in his BLESSEDNESS with God, in that he was FAITHFUL as ascribed as – FAITHFUL ABRAHAM.

Let us see some FAITHFUL characteristics of FAITHFUL ABRAHAM that we can learn of him and can use as a measure to ascertain in SHARING in his GOSPEL enabling for us today:

1. He was FAITHFUL to OBEY when he received the call of God without conferring with flesh and blood. He left all, his people inclusive, to cleave to God in faith. How I wish we can learn of him, on how to LEAVE and CLEAVE to a CAUSE – PURPOSE. Genesis 12; Galatians 1:12-17; Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:5 (Make 10:7).

2. He was FAITHFUL to depend on God’s provisions when tried and tested by his nephew – Lot – who was in his greediness on business deals and acquisitions with him. He turned his face to God, instead of having a fight on Earthly possessions that takes people lives instead of offering life. Genesis 13; Luke 12:15; Mark 10:28-3; Philippians 4:13, 19; 2 Corinthians 9:8; 2 Corinthians 3:4-6.

3. He was FAITHFUL to pay up in FAITH at no pressure or dispute, the TITHE of his earnings – Genesis 14; Hebrews 7:1-9; Hebrews 3:1-2; Matthew 23:23; Matthew 22:15-22; 2 Corinthians 8-9; Luke 6:38; Luke 8:1-3; Acts 20:32-35; (Proverbs 3:9-10; Malachi 3:10-12; Deuteronomy 26:1-19; Leviticus 27:30-33).

4. He was FAITHFUL toward God in Covenant in FAITH, being assured that God will do the needful – Genesis 15-17; Philippians 1:6; 1 John 5:14-15; Hebrews 10:23, 35-39.

5. He was FAITHFUL to receive and entertained Angelic visitors unaware and at no question or cost. Genesis 18; Hebrews 13:1-3; Romans 12:9-21;

6. He was FAITHFUL to intercede in prayers for His family and Nation in crises and awaiting God’s judgement, peradventure God might show mercy – Genesis 18/19; Isaiah 59:16; Ezekiel 22:30; Romans 8:26:26-27; Isaiah 53:12; Romans 8:34; Hebrews 7:25.

7. He was such FAITHFUL to let GO of his wife when challenge, in order to fulfil PURPOSE in God; and God foreseeing his sincerity save him and wife from such challenging test of his marital relationship. Genesis 20; Mark 10:28-31; Colossians 4:17; 1 Corinthians 4:1-2; 1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28-30.

8. He was FAITHFUL in the midst of the CONFUSION he find himself by the errors and failures he made in course of time in his decision. And God was there to turn his MESS into a MESSAGE because he was troubled and repentant. Genesis 21; 2 Thessalonians 3:3; Galatians 1:3-5; 1 Thessalonians 5:24; 1 John 1:9-10.

9. He was FAITHFUL to let Go of his precious and most treasured gift – his son Isaac to God, at God’s request and demand, without questioning and arguing with God of His intent. – Genesis 22; Hebrews 11:17-19.

10. He was FAITHFUL even at his lost of his dear wife and in bereavement. And turn his lost for legacy, in that by her burying place, he then set up a foundation stone (the land of Canaan) that earmarked that which was to be FULFILL for posterity in God’s Prophecy in MOSES and the Israelites in years to come. Genesis 23; (Galatians 3:17-18; Genesis 15:12-14); 2 Corinthians 1:3-11; John 11:1-45; Romans 12:15; James 5:13.

11. He was FAITHFUL in that he was able to create the needed atmosphere that his son Isaac could get married faithfully. Genesis 24; 1 Timothy 4:12; Titus 2:1-8; Ephesians 6:1-4; Ephesians 5:21-33; 1 Peter 3:1-12.

12. He was FAITHFUL to leave an inheritance for his Children as he died in FAITH, fulfiling PURPOSE in FAITHFULNESS. Genesis 25; Proverbs 13:22.

Abraham have FAITH in God’s FAITHFULNESS – being FAITHFUL; that’s why he was prepared from the moment of receiving the GOSPEL of FAITH, to LET GO of himself of anything, counting and accounting that God will take CARE of him no matter what may happen; thus indicating that whatsoever he let go at God’s request, God knows best as He’s a FAITHFUL God to make it up for him in a far better placement than the one he could have held unto and held back with; and in selfishness and in not Believing and Trusting that GOD IS FAITHFUL to keep to His PROMISE.

Today, we as Abraham seed, who are partakers of his enabling in Christ Jesus, how much can it be said, that we are as him, in being called FAITHFUL ABRAHAM. Let us not be the Believers in Christ Jesus stead, who wants the BLESSEDNESS of Abraham but are not PREPARED of the PROCESS in it; especially when that is the part that can fortified and make us grounded and rooted in FAITH and in the FAITH, in Christ Jesus stead, as we share in his blessing.

ABRAHAM was called a friend of God – James 2:23, because of the attribute of being FAITHFUL ABRAHAM. May we be as he’s toward God in Christ Jesus stead I pray for now and always. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Hearken to me, ye that FOLLOW AFTER RIGHTEOUSNESS, ye that seek the Lord: LOOK UNTO THE ROCK whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged. 2 Look unto ABRAHAM YOUR FATHER, and unto SARAH THAT BARE YOU: for I CALLED him alone, and BLESSED him, and INCREASED him. 3 For the Lord shall COMFORT Zion: he will COMFORT all her waste places; and he will make her WILDERNESS like Eden, and her DESERT like the garden of the Lord; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody” Isaiah 51:1-3.

“Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. 7 Know ye therefore that they WHICH ARE OF FAITH, the same are the CHILDREN of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, PREACHED before the GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, IN THEE SHALL ALL NATIONS BE BLESSED. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE BLESSED with FAITHFUL Abraham . . . 13 Christ hath REDEEMED us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 that THE BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith . . . 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” Galatians 3:6-9, 13-14, 26-29.

“By FAITH Abraham, when he was CALLED to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, OBEYED; and he went out, NOT KNOWING whither he went. 9 By FAITH he sojourned in THE LAND OF PROMISE, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: 10 for he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God. 11 Through FAITH also Sara herself RECEIVED STRENGTH TO CONCEIVE SEED, and was DELIVERED of a child when she was past age, because she judged him FAITHFUL who had promised. 12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable . . . 17 By FAITH Abraham, when he was tried, OFFERED up Isaac: and he that had RECEIVED the promises OFFERED up his only begotten son, 18 of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: 19 ACCOUNTING that God was ABLE to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he RECEIVED him in a FIGURE” Hebrews 11:8-19.

“But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father JUSTIFIED by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 Seest thou how FAITH wrought with his works, and by works was FAITH made perfect? 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the FRIEND of God. 24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only” James 2:20-24.

“As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations, before him whom he BELIEVED, even God, who QUICKENETH the dead, and CALLETH those things which be not as though they were. 18 Who against HOPE believed in HOPE, that he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. 19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara’s womb: 20 he staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; 21 and being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. 22 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness . . .” Romans 4:17-25.

God Is FAITHFUL: He CALLED Us Into His FELLOWSHIP!

We were created for FELLOWSHIP. We lost it in Adam; but thanks to God that in Christ Jesus by our REDEMPTION in Him, we’ve been CALLED, having been FOREKNOWN, PREDESTINATED, JUSTIFIED and GLORIFIED to share in this FELLOWSHIP; and not just for now only but for all eternity as we stand in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Genesis 3:8-11 (1-24); 1 Corinthians 1:9; Romans 8:28-30; 1 John 1:1-10.

FELLOWSHIP enhance RELATIONSHIP. Show me an outstanding and stable relationship, I will show you the fellowship that has been built over time, behind the scene to make it likeable, loveable and liveable.

COMMUNION – the Common Union is about being together in common grace of life – 1 Peter 3:7-12 (1-12); and that is what makes the Relationship of grace, a UNIFIED bond of common knowledge and understanding on same path of life in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS.

You can develop a sense of fellowship (communion) today to enhance your relationship with God and mankind in all good and pure consciousness. It’s on such atmosphere you can experience and know with full joy that – GOD IS FAITHFUL. Amen.
