And
I know that whatever God does is final. Nothing can be added to it or taken
from it. God's purpose is that people should fear him. What is happening now
has happened before, and what will happen in the future has happened before,
because God makes the same things happen over and over again. Ecclesiastes 3:14-15
Whatever God does is final. That’s it. Love and war…it is final. We can’t add
to it…or take away from whatever God has planned.
Unfortunately we also know from
scripture that Satan is in control of the world. He does not control us…just
the world. And we know how the story ends…so to speak. God wins.
We
know that we are children of God and that the world around us is under the
control of the evil one. 1 John 5:19
Tree of Life |
Nothing is to be added or taken from
God’s plan, His word, or His action. That is God’s intention from the beginning
of His relationship with the Israelites to the end of time. Moses gave us an
example of God’s proclamation about not adding to or taking away from God’s
commandments given to the Israelites in their desert time. It is also commanded
in Revelation not to add or take away any of God’s words. Don’t add or subtract…just
obey.
Do
not add to or subtract from these commands I am giving you. Just obey the
commands of the LORD your God that I am giving you. Deuteronomy
4:2
And
I solemnly declare to everyone who hears the words of prophecy written in this
book: If anyone adds anything to what is written here, God will add to that
person the plagues described in this book. And if anyone removes any of the
words from this book of prophecy, God will remove that person's share in the
tree of life and in the holy city that are described in this book. Revelation
22:18-19
Obedience is the key to a healthy and
eternal relationship with the Lord. Know what He expects…and do it.
How is your relationship with the Lord?
Do you see yourself obeying the Lord your God with all of your heart, soul,
mind and strength?
Prayer – The most important commandment
is this: 'Listen, O Israel! The LORD our God is the one and only LORD. And you
must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind,
and all your strength.' Mark 12:29-30. I praise and love You, Lord, with all of
my heart, soul, mind, and strength.
Verses
of Salvation ~The LORD says, "I will rescue those who love me. I will
protect those who trust in my name. When they call on me, I will answer; I will
be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them. I will reward them with
a long life and give them my salvation." Psalm 91:14-16
