God is forever faithful

"Therefore know that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments; - Deuteronomy 7:9

My God of all ages is faithful. He is a convenant keeping God and His timing, though it may seem to be late at times, is always perfect. He will never allow the righteous to famish. He set the path right for His righteous people and all His thoughts toward His people are thoughts of goodness and grandeur.

When God prophesied that the seed of the woman will crush the head of the devil and that he will bruise His heel, the devil had been going on a rampage to wipe out the human kind for we are created in the very own image of God. Since the devil cannot get back at God, he is trying his best to get back at His creations.

It is the grace of God that He caused the water to flood all over the earth so that the only human stock then, Noah and his wife and his three sons and his three daughter-in-laws, would survive and populate the earth once more. And God proclaimed the water shall never flood the earth once more.

Yet the devil is still hell-bound to corrupt the human race by sending his fallen angels to mate with human women to produce giants and other forms of human, human which are not of pure human in the flesh. God is still faithful to His promise of not flooding the earth once more and He send the children of Israel to wipe out those genetic freaks.

The devil had absolutely no idea who the promised seed will be so he tried to corrupt the human kind whenever possible. When God promised Abraham that his seed will crush the devil, the devil tried to corrupt the purity of Sarah's womb.

Whenever the devil suspected that the Savior was born, he would instigate the king of that era to kill all those children who were under the age of three. He is not omnipotent. He is totally clueless as to when the true Savior would arrive until he distinctly heard from God saying Jesus is His beloved Son and in Him He is well pleased. That was when the devil realized Jesus is the Savior. He tried all his means to make Jesus bow down at his feet but to no avail.

At the cross, the devil thought he had the ultimate victory over God only to realized it was God who allowed Jesus to die at the cross so that all our sins can be forgiven. At the cross, the love of God meets the judgement of God. At the cross, God's mercy and righteousness meet. Jesus paid the price for our redemption to God. And He conquered death and the key of hell when He was resurrected three days later.

With one completely complete work at the cross, Jesus has avail His gift of salvation for all generations, past, present and future. Whoever accepts the gift of salvation shall be saved and has everlasting life and life more abundantly! With that gift comes righteousness. And the result of righteousness is health and wealth. Hallelujah!
