" And the Lord said, Shall i hid from Abraham that thing which i do; seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all nations of the earth shall be blessed in him? For I know, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment........ (Gen. 18vs 17-19)
Welcome to a new day and God bless you richly.
Whilst studying this morning, a question came to mind, 'can God trust you with His secrets'? God was about to destroy the city of Sodom and Gomorrah because their sinful deeds and HE sent angels to carry out this tasks. God would have done what HE had to do without telling anyone but HE decided not to hid it from His obedient servant, Abraham.
God had already built a RELATIONSHIP with Abraham and this made God to have a second thought about sidelining Abraham. He is called a friend of God.
The question is 'what is your relationship with God'?, 'can God do anything without first showing it to you'? These are questions every christian must answer everyday. Relationships are built and serviced every day.
Building a relationship with Him, begins with obedience to His word, spending time in worship, prayers, fearing God in all actions and deed. The need for a relationship with God is inexhaustible. "The secret of the Lord is with them that fear Him; and He will shew them His covenant" (Ps25vs14)
As believers, we must build a strong bond with our maker. He is he bride and we are the bridegroom. This is a call to self examination.
Shalom
