FATHER’S Promises

It is written by THE SPIRIT in Deuteronomy chapter 7:

12 “Then it shall come to pass, because you listen to these judgments, and keep and do them, that the LORD your God will keep with you the covenant and the mercy which He swore to your fathers.

13 And He will love you and bless you and multiply you; He will also bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your land, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flock, in the land of which He swore to your fathers to give you.

14 You shall be blessed above all peoples; there shall not be a male or female barren among you or among your livestock.

15 And the LORD will take away from you all sickness…”

These promises were first given to the children of Israel yet they were unable to sustain their commitment because their spirit man had not been made new.  Their sin nature was dealt with on a temporary basis once a year.  However, our nature has been dealt with permanently as we submit to our spirit man and place our soul and body as servants, no longer to be placed above the spirit.  Now The Holy Spirit lives inside us rather than an external tabernacle with restrictions attached to it.

The blessings are still in place for those of us who purpose to keep the covenant of Agape Love which all the Law is based.  FATHER has not changed in HIS willingness to bless us with good fruit.  HE has called us to be fruitful in everything HE leads us to set our hand to as we spread the truly Good News of Jesus Christ.

The immature believer focuses on the “things” which are the results of walking in HIS ways but the mature believer places emphasis on The Way.  We look to be a blessing to others as we serve according to the leading of The Holy Spirit.  Simplicity is preferred over possessions.  Revelation is preferred over information.  Power and authority from Above is preferred over the world’s solutions.  Silence is preferred over the noise generated by the world’s relentless rhetoric.  As it is written by THE SPIRIT in Psalm 46:

​10 ​​Be still, and know that I am God;

​​I will be exalted among the nations,

​​I will be exalted in the earth!

I am grateful for each day and I trust you are too.  Each day presents an opportunity to bless others in whatever situation we find ourselves in.  Let us walk in kindness over criticism.  Nations are being divided yet we are called to be in unity.  Division was started in the Garden of Eden and it has been a primary tool of the adversary ever since.  We should be looking to find something in common with others rather than attempting to use “soulish” persuasion to further some agenda created by the mind.  We are to be a light to others and allow The Holy Spirit to draw them toward the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Paul wrote by THE SPIRIT in Romans chapter 8:

11 But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors—not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.

13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.

What is the highest form of physical existence?  To be led by THE SPIRIT and be deemed as one of the Sons of GOD!  The things of the world along with the accolades associated with worldly success will pass away but those who have been redeemed by the Blood of The Lamb will live a blessed eternal life pleasing Our Heavenly Father.  The flesh no longer has power over us and we have overcome its enticements and destructive nature.  HIS blessings will overtake us as we walk according to Agape Love.
