A CHOSEN PEOPLE

A CHOSEN PEOPLE Deuteronomy 7:4-11 Devotional:- “…the Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth…” (V.6)      The basic challenge we are facing that does not make us understand our new position in Christ is that of misunderstanding how we become a child of God. Because we do not understand what it takes, many don’t even value it. So they easily throw it off their mind. Many today are not holding on to their faith and are easily discouraged simply because they lack understanding of the richness of their choice. Some also put up some pride and some show up because they think they were qualified.

IMPARTIAL

IMPARTIAL 

Scripture Reading: 1Samuel 2:22-30
Devotional:- “Therefore the Lord God of Israel says:'I said indeed that your house and the house of your father would walk before Me forever.' But now the Lord says:'Far be it from Me; for those who honor Me I will honor, and those who despise Me shall be lightly esteemed” (V. 30) NKJV

    The God who made the universe and all that is in it cannot be partial. People become partial because they need to favour someone, so that the person can in turn favour them. He does not need to be partial because He has nothing to lose. We really do not have anything that God will be looking for. So, He is not a partial God (Acts 10:34-35).

One of the purposes of the covenant of God is because God treats each one according to His standard which is this covenant (2 Timothy 2:11). So that no one can challenge God for been partial. This is because, when we walk in His will, He will surely bless us. If anyone is walking in the covenant blessing of God, such has the right to the covenant provisions of God.

He has covenanted to retain the lineage of Prophet Eli to e priest for ever but now that Eli could not control his children, God then need to break the covenant upon his lineage. Please know that God does not play partiality. He deals with everyone base on their covenant responsibility. It is not about luck. God love each one the same way, but each one must obey God to have His best. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, I ask for the grace to always obey you.

“WHAT GOD DOES FOR A, HE WILL DO FOR B, ACCORDING TO HIS COVENANT”.
