In today’s Red Church live stream, Joseph Z delves into the second part of how to obtain God’s promises. He recounted his experience as a child and how the word of God, praise and worship helped him pull through his ugly experiences. He recounted also how reading the word of God constantly, altered the way he thought and processed things in his life.
Moving on, Joseph teaches us that when we put our faith in Jesus, every promise of God is made available to us. He supported this with the word of God drawn from Hebrews 6:9-15 which says, “But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak. For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise”.
He proceeded further, teaching us that God’s promises to Abraham didn’t happen automatically, Abraham had to participate actively to bring them to pass; he had to agree with the Lord. Joseph went on to teach that, just because our circumstances change doesn't mean that the word of God would change. Yes, God gives us a promise but we have to act with faith, patience, and endurance to obtain those promises of God.
Furthermore, he enlightens us more about patience which he defines as “remaining consistently the same at all times”. He went on to inform us that life would throw lots of distractions our way in the form of discouragements when we want to adhere to faith and patience, but he encourages us not to be shaken in our stance. No matter how dark it gets, you can overcome!
