Dear Family,
Today is Tuesday, April 18, 2023. Today is Day 10; Day 3 of Week 2 in our Count to Pentecost.
In spite of the flagrant demonstration of wretched human nature at the waters of Marah, God continued to grant His presence and help to ancient Israel. He had promised them a land!
Our daily Count to Pentecost helps us to understand God’s faithfulness to His people. He has also made promises to us.
Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation (conduct) be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.
His very name means the Salvation of the Everliving One. He is our Faithful, Unfailing Savior, and He is our Way to complete success.
We can be sure that God’s Plan of Salvation is going to work for mankind. God cannot fail. He will not fail. His teachings show the path, He lights the way. He feeds us. He heals us. He encourages us. He defeats the enemy.
What is our part? We must be aware of who He is and be aware of His Sovereignty, His Wisdom, and His Nature. And, then we walk joyfully in His ways, applying the faith He gives to us by grace.
May God bless each one of us to live our lives as if we cannot fail – not because of ourselves, but because of the ONE WHO is invested in us, the ONE WHO has paid so much to have us in His future eternity – our promised land!
