Thoughts for another day

Today's verse: Lev. 26:11,12. And I will set my tabernacle among you: and my soul shall not abhor you. And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people. (KJV)
(Pls. read the above before you read further. Thanks)

God’s precious promises are for sure besides; very true are His assurances. Yet, being engrossed with the ways of the world, we do not hold them in our mind as indelible rather we think they are like the promises people in the world make - promises meant to be kept (more often broken) depending on the situation. God’s promises stand; no matter what the situation.

Many are the times I’ve witnessed the provision of God in impossible situations. His healing has come at a time, when the body almost decayed. This, even more with people who kept the faith and had the conviction that what God has said, He will bring to pass. In our verse above, God saying ‘My soul shall not abhor you’ simply means He will not turn from you or despise you because, He has nurtured and raised you up, as His own. No matter who you are, you are God’s own. Your qualification for this depends on just a simple KEY: ‘Belief’. When you show belief, God comes forth as your Father to put you under His care.

When you consider it, don’t you find it amazing that God has set His tent among us? Isn’t it pleasing to our souls to know that God’s dwelling is with us? For it means that in whatever situation we are, God walks with us and will work for us, just as He promised. God’s presence is where there is all beauty; He is the fount of all good things. Every choice blessing is ours when we are in His presence and every breath of life is touched when we are placed in His anointing. He has already done His part of the deal. Now it’s your task to move toward Him with a heart of expectation and humility, waiting for His Spirit to do the most beautiful things in your life, as only He can.
