It is better to trust in the LORD Than to put confidence in man.
When we trust in God's unmerited, unearned and undeserved favour, we are
under the secret place of the most high. All blessings are ours to
proclaim. We are far from evil and no plague shall come near our house.
In the old testament, Abraham lived under the grace of the almighty God.
God made him very rich and he lived a long good life! Even when he had made
mistakes, God didn't punish him but instead turn those mistakes into
something good for Abraham, making him very rich in the process.
When Ishmael was born to Hagar, God didn't punish Abraham for his lack of
faith but blessed the generations of Ishmael, even though that is not the
best plan God had for Abraham. Years later, Sarah gave birth to Isaac, the
child of the promise. For out of Isaac lineage comes Jesus Christ, our Lord
and Saviour.
When the great grandson of Abraham, Joseph was sent to Egypt, he didn't
resent his brothers for doing evil to him but instead praised and thanked
God for preparing him for the great famine. Joseph trusted in God's grace
and he prospered in everything he did. Even the pharoah made him the second
man in command right after him.
Years later God's grace provided food and clothing for the children of
Israel in the wilderness. Even though they murmured before Mount Sinai,
they were provided for in everything. They had the pillar of cloud in the
day to keep them cool and they had the pillar of fire in the evening to
keep them warm. God provided all their needs and would have continue to do
so for He is a gracious God had they not requested for God's law.
We, the beloved of the Lord, should come under the grace of God and not put
ourselves under His law. For Christ had fulfilled the law at the cross
thousand years ago. With that complete act, we are called the sons of God.
We have being reconciled with God through the divine exchange, accomplished
by Jesus Christ, at the cross.
We should live life knowing God will provide for our every need. He has
blessed us with every spiritual blessing. The grace of the Lord will make
us rich and healthy. The grace of the Lord will cause us to live long. The
grace of the Lord will make us the head and not the tail.
Trust in Gos's grace in our lives. He will make all things beautiful in His
time for us. Live life worry-free and just enjoy God's abundant grace in
our lives. Hallelujah!
