Morning Devotion
Numbers 23:19"God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent; Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?
God is unchangeable, he is not like men who break promises, lie, modify plans, twist the truth, distort facts. Our God is perfect and trustworthy in all his ways and thoughts.
God's counsel is steadfast, his promises are true, his word is dependable and it will remain forever.
We should know that whatever he has said in his word shall come to pass over our lives. He has set out his plan for mankind within the Scriptures. God's promises for his children are certainly sure. His word is trustworthy for he has placed his word above his holy name.
The word of God in the book of Mathew 24:35 states Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away." The Lord is true to His Word, despite the nation of Israel being disobedient, the Lord fulfilled his promise of giving them the land of milk and honey. The Lord in the book of psalms says "I have sworn by My holiness and I will not lie to my servant David." He is a faithful God Who will stand firm to the very end of time.
Despite our instabilities and uncertainties and in spite of our faults and failings, the Word of the Lord is sure, His decrees are unalterable, and all His promises are all 'yes' and 'amen' in Christ Jesus our Saviour.
Let us come to a point where we can take the word of God seriously then we will see his promises being fulfilled over our lives.
