ANGLICAN COMMUNION DAILY FOUNTAIN DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY.
The Topic of Daily Fountain Devotional for 13th November 2023 Is ”God’s Promises Are Sure and Reliable”
Read: Hebrews 6(NKJV)
6:1. Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary [principles] of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,
6:2. of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
6:3. And this we will do if God permits.
6:4. For [it is] impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit,
6:5. and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come,
6:6. if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put [Him] to an open shame.
6:7. For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated, receives blessing from God;
6:8. but if it bears thorns and briars, [it is] rejected and near to being cursed, whose end [is] to be burned.
6:9. But, beloved, we are confident of better things concerning you, yes, things that accompany salvation, though we speak in this manner.
6:10. For God [is] not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, [in that] you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
6:11. And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end,
6:12. that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
6:13. For when God made a promise to Abraham, because He could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself,
6:14. saying, “Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you.”
6:15. And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
6:16. For men indeed swear by the greater, and an oath for confirmation [is] for them an end of all dispute.
6:17. Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed [it] by an oath,
6:18. that by two immutable things, in which it [is] impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before [us.]
6:19. This [hope] we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence [behind] the veil,
6:20. where the forerunner has entered for us, [even] Jesus, having become High Priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.
ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 13TH NOVEMBER 2023.
The pages of the Bible are full of God’s promises; all the promises speak of the faithfulness of God and teach believers more about His incredible character and reliability (1Pet. 1:3-4). Today’s passage reveals the greatness of God Almighty in fulfilling his promises; an important attribute of God. He is faithful in keeping watch over His words to perform them.
His promises to the patriarchs were fulfilled. Genesis 21:1 says, “And the Lord visited Sarah as He had said, and the Lord did for Sarah as He had spoken.” When God could not see anything to swear by, He swore by himself saying “Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying, I will multiply you. And so after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise” (Heb. 6:14-15).
Abraham waited patiently for the promises of God and he obtained it. Beloved, hold unto the promises of God; they may tarry but wait patiently for them. Abraham got the promises fulfilled when he was 99 years old. God gave Noah a rainbow as a sign that He was a Covenant-keeping God. What is God’s promise to you and your children? Believe God for what He has said.
Trust him because he cannot lie. Depend and rely on him because He is eternally dependable. The One Who has called you is faithful and He will surely do all He has promised. You can trust Him (1Thess.5:34).
PRAYER: Dear Lord, make all your promises for my life to be fulfilled in Jesus’ name. Amen.
