Did you ever lie in bed as a kid and kick up your sheet high above you? I would lie still, waiting for the sheet to come back down. The sheet would drift slowly and gently until finally it would come to rest on me softly. Giggles would ensue and then another kick...... back into the air the sheet went flying.
Have you ever known something without ever really stopping to meditate on it and let the enormity of the realization fall over you like that sheet? I have to be sure! This is one of those such truths I realize I need to allow to settle over me today:
Through the covenant relationship we've entered by the blood of Jesus Christ, the God of all creation is loyal to us.
Okay, you may say, “I know this already.” Yeah, me too. BUT do I live and breathe, think and act like I really KNOW it?
In our Beth Moore study she directs us to 2 Timothy 2:13 which says: “If we are faithless, He will remain faithful, for He cannot disown himself.”
The Amplified version says this: “If we are faithless (do not believe and are untrue to Him), He remains true (faithful to His Word and His righteous character), for He cannot deny Himself.”
This makes me think of Eph 1:13, 14 which talks about the Holy Spirit being sealed within us, and other scriptures where we are told we are a temple. So, that's why He won't deny me. That is how I we can still receive blessings when we have failed! He is in us (praise God) and we are a part of Him as we are now called His body! God is good!
God loves me so much that he died for me so that He could make His home in me so He could be faithful to me. Too amazing to handle! |
