Promises from God

In my daily study I pick up Exodus 19. This book is cliche for being "old fashion". However today I urge to to think of it as lessons learned. Additionally look for the theme of faithfulness.

‘You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself. Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine, you will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words you are to speak to the Israelites.”

(‭Exodus‬ ‭19‬:‭4-6‬ NIV)

We see God giving instructions to Moses. These aren't orders for slavery but direction for prosperity. Even before Jesus was sent God shows His love to the very people that doubt him. Even after He brought them through trials.

Now we know about the risen savior , we know if the grace we have but we still doubt. Doubt is normal. However right now let us claim on the victory of what was done and what will be.

I need to add one more thing.

And the Lord said to Moses, “Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow. Have them wash their clothes and be ready by the third day, because on that day the Lord will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.

(‭Exodus‬ ‭19‬:‭10-11‬ NIV)

In order to have a close relationship with God we are to live Holy. We are to set ourselves apart. Yes we sin- but right now let's ask God to forgive us.

"Father forgive me for my sins. God I want to live holy. I want to have you work in me in a new way. Use me for Your kingdom. Lord I'm asking for this not for the blessings your word tells us but because You love me and sent your son Jesus to die for my sins. Amen "
