For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise. For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife. Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. (Hebrews 6:13-20)
Today’s Morsel: I love the book of Hebrews. What a book that encourages and enlightens us to the past, present, and future. Most people, when asked about the Book of Hebrews, focus on Chapter 11, which many refer to as the Faith Chapter. Yet me, I get bogged down in this book because of all the encouraging stuff that is in it. “For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.” Just think about that part for a moment. God can’t lie. He has to fulfill His promises to us. These words encourage us that God will come through if we will just wait. The Rock won’t move. Let me encourage you today, read your Bible daily and it will enrich every day.
Sing: He is my everything, He is my all. He is my everything, both great and small. He gave his life for me, made everything new. He is my everything, Oh how about you?
Thought For Today: The Rock won’t move.
