“Inside the Tent of Meeting, the LORD would speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend.” Exodus 33:11a
In the old days, only Moses can speak to the Lord just as one speaks to a friend. But through Jesus, we can come and freely communicate with the Lord.
“I no longer call you slaves, because a master doesn’t confide in his slaves. Now you are my friends, since I have told you everything the Father told me” John 15:15a
“Abraham never wavered in believing God’s promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger, and in this he brought glory to God.”
If we continue to believe on God’s promises, it will bring glory to the Lord our God.
“He was fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises. And because of Abraham’s faith, God counted him as righteous.”
Believing on God, on what he is, on what he can do, and his ability to fulfill his promises will be counted as righteous.
Romans 4:20-22
You can make many plans,but the LORD’s purpose will prevail.
Proverbs 19:21
It’s not what you gather, but what you sow,
That gives the heart a warming glow.
It’s not what you get, but what you give,
Decides the kind of life you live.
It’s not what you have,
But what you spare.
It’s not what you take,
But what you share
That pays the greater dividend
And makes you richer in the end.
It’s not what you spend upon yourself
Or hide away upon a shelf,
That brings a blessing for the day.
It’s what you scatter by the way.
A wasted effort it may seem.
But what you cast upon the stream
Comes back to you recompense
Upon the tides of providence.
