“I will make you pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant.” Ezekiel 20:37
Today is a day of praise! No matter what is going on in life, cancer, debt, drought, death, we STILL have SO MUCH to praise Him for. Praise Him for the hope that has been offered to us through Christ. Praise Him for the abundant life that has been made possible to you right here and now. You have been given an indestructible life, not even death can kill you! And THAT my friend is worth praising Him. Jesus loves YOU. He died for you and you have been redeemed, that is worth at least a song or two!
Think about Rahab. She risked her life and sheltered the Hebrew spies and that was brave and full of faith. In return they told her,
“Behold, when we come into the land, you shall tie this scarlet cord in the window through which you let us down, and you shall gather into your house your father and mother, your brothers, and all your father’s household. Then if anyone goes out of the doors of your house into the street, his blood shall be on his own head, and we shall be guiltless. But if a hand is laid on anyone who is with you in the house, his blood shall be on our head. But if you tell this business of ours, then we shall be guiltless with respect to your oath that you have made us swear.” Joshua 2:18-20
My friends, Rahab’s house was IN the wall of Jericho!!! (Joshua2:15) Those spies, when they told her to stay in her house, didn’t know that the wall was going to fall down. Can you imagine what her family went through? The walls crumbled around their heads, yet her house stood strong and tall amid the falling rubble and clouds of dust. They had to have been terrified.
Do you feel like your house is crumbling down around your ears? Is there a ferocious battle raging just outside your door? Fear not Beloved, God is with you and He is for you and He will never abandon you! Praise Him today. He is worthy. He is faithful. He is GOOD. You will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living!
