The God we serve is the God who keeps His words, His covenants, and His promises; He is the God who does not change His plans and does not change His ways and words because of the acts of men and the circumstances surrounding them. has He spoken, He will do it; has He promised, He will fulfill it, has He saved you, He will preserve you, and has He called you, He will keep you, use you, empower you and cause you to see His glory and inherit His wealth. When God made Adam and Eve, He also made them inherit all of His wealth in creation, He also placed them in a place of abundance and covered them with His glory, with His presence and gave them excellent wisdom and grace and power to increase, multiply and gave them the power to have authority and to fulfill His mandate for their lives.

When God spoke to Noah concerning His plans for the entire world and everything human, plant and animals in it, He also promised Noah safety and preservation; He gave him instructions on what to do, directives to follow and an action plan to execute. God enabled him to do what He said successfully, He shielded him in His plans and blessed him in His actions before and after the flood. When God spoke to Abram concerning a future he never prayed for or imagined in his heart and spoken to by anyone, God gave him specific instructions and hope with a promise that will outlive him. This is the promise after the first; “And He said to him, I am the same Lord who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans, to give you this land as an inheritance. But Abram said, Lord God, by what proof will I know that I will inherit it? So God said to him, Bring Me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon. So Abram brought all these to Him and cut them down the middle, and laid each half opposite the other, but he did not cut the birds. The birds of prey swooped down on the carcasses, but Abram drove them away. When the sun was setting, a deep sleep overcame Abram and a horror, terror, shuddering fear, nightmare of great darkness overcame him. God said to Abram, know for sure that your descendants will be strangers living temporarily in a land that is not theirs, where they will be enslaved and oppressed for four hundred years. But on that nation whom your descendants will serve I will bring judgment, and afterward, they will come out of that land with great possessions.” Genesis 15:7-14. And it was so that all the children of Israel on that faithful day came out with great possessions and joy and a testimony of the goodness of God and the presence of His power to do as He had said.

What is the proof Abraham asked and God told Abraham to make a sacrifice and God spoke to him again thereafter concerning the future of his descendants and His plans for them even in the place where they will be strangers. What is your own proof today you may also ask? God sent Christ Jesus for His purpose and as a plan to fulfill His desire for all humanity who will accept and also believed in Him. Christ Jesus voluntarily presented Himself as an acceptable sacrifice on the Cross so that the plans of God for those who believed in God and will also believe in and follow His words and ways will be fulfilled. Christ Jesus came for the purpose that God in His amazing love and kindness had destined for believers in Jesus Christ and follower of His words and principles. He came to confirm God’s plans, to finalize God’s plans, to show the way to that plan and to also lead the way to that destiny. The proof we have is that through Christ Jesus, God forgave all of our sins and gave us salvation which is the greatest gift, assurance, and proof, and blessings that we can truly and strongly hold onto till we see, till we experience, till we testify and till we rejoice with joy and gladness as the children of Israel did on that day of what they saw and also experienced the power of God and His favor working in their favor to bring to pass His promise to Abraham and their expectations for many generations. “Whosoever believes in Christ Jesus should not perish.” John 3:16.
