Unshakable

Friends,

In the early days of human history, there was no shortage of religious ideas. One, however, was unique. And is a singular and critical part of our Christian heritage.

Most people believed in many gods. But one chosen people believed in one Almighty God. This was but one example of the remarkable faith that lies at the core of our beliefs.

After these things the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, saying, “Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward.”
Genesis 15:1 [NKJV]

Abram left his land, his family and any assurances that they represented behind. He walked by faith to follow the One True God. By His grace, the LORD instilled in Abram an unshakable confidence and expectation that all of those wondrous promises would be fulfilled.

Those promises have not changed. They are just as valid today as they were so many thousands of years ago. The only thing that might have changed is that you and I are not quite as confident as Abram was.

Today, let us walk with renewed vigor and excitement. Let us demonstrate to all that we believe that the LORD is our protection and our great reward.

Be encouraged, Jose
