Soul Safe
Hebrews
6:17, 18
God also bound
Himself with an oath, so that those
who received
the promise could be perfectly sure that
He would never
change His mind. So God has given us
both His
promise and His oath. These two things are un-
changeable
because it is impossible for God to lie.
(NLT)
From the moment sin entered
into God's Story, He made an oath and promised us a Savior, one that would save
us from our sin and banishment from God's eternal Presence—that one day we
would walk in His Presence once again, to live in a personal relationship with
Him forever. He kept His promise by
sending His Son, Jesus Christ, to die the death we deserved, to cleanse our
sins with His holy blood, and to remove the barrier that made it impossible for
us to be with our God. And we are now
waiting for the Lord to come and finish His Plan, so we can physically live
with Him forever in our newly created bodies to live in our eternal Home, the
New Earth. This is the Promise of God
that keeps our souls safe and our hopes alive.
But to be a part of His
glorious Kingdom to come you must embrace His every Word and every promise as
the absolute Truth, not just those words or promises that suit your
agenda. You must get rid of your own
interpretations and learn to fully trust the Lord with every area of your
life. Our Lord God did not come as your
Savior to please Himself or because He had to. He did it because He gave an
oath and made a promise, and God cannot break an oath or fail to live up to His
promises any more than He can tell a lie or claim He doesn't exist. You have a loving God. my friend, One who
loves you so much that He refused to let you suffer the eternal consequences of
your inherent sinfulness and the rebellion you live in against His
righteousness. Never doubt God's love or His commitment to save your soul,
because He did it before you existed or knew you needed it.
A Whisper of Hope
You can stake your life, child...on the
promises of My Word. Do not gamble your
life away by trusting in the world for your future, because this world and
those who trust it, do not have a very encouraging future. Only My children have a hope and a future.
Isaiah 43:11-13
“I
am the LORD, and there is no other Savior.
First I predicted
your
deliverance, I declared what I would do, and then I did it—
I
saved you. No foreign god has ever done
this before. You are
witnesses
that I am the only God,” says the LORD.
From eternity
to eternity I am God. No one can oppose what I do. No one can
reverse
My actions.” (NLT)
Without wavering, let us hold tightly to the
Hope we say we have, for God can
be
trusted to keep His promise.
(Hebrews
10:23)
