Jesus' blessings for us are wonderful, but the following revelation is the greatest of them all: All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.  (Matthew 11.27) When Christ fully reveals the Father to us, we must believe and live the Truth!

Because we are the Lord's sheep, there is no force, neither of man or Hell, that can separate us from God, for the divine engineering used to protect and guard us is infinitely greater than the devil's opposition. The Savior declared: My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand (John 10.29). With Him, we are safe!

Everything that was created and God’s plans revealed to us involve the participation of His Son (Colossians 1:15-17). Christ affirmed: I and My Father are one (John 10.30). Believe what Jesus says, for it is the truth; His statements will never fail to be fulfilled (Revelation 22:6). The Lord is no respecter of persons (Acts 10:34), so believe that your time to act in faith in the Savior is today, and not some other day.

Jesus has been given all power, as well as everything the Father has, so if any of us have a need, we should go to Him and intercede for that person. The answer will come from the Scriptures, for God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son (Hebrews 1.1). Jesus is the Word, the Word of God. In the Bible are the answers to our questions.

When we read the Holy Book, the Lord will speak to us, making the solution “jump” out at us, for He reveals Himself to those who seek to know His will. Divine testimonies are faithful and worthy of our trust. The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple (Psalm 19.7). When you feel that God, through His Spirit, is testifying to your heart about a promise, believe it and take hold of it.

The reason why the people of Judah were disciplined by God at the time of the Assyrian invasion was this: And they rejected His statutes and His covenant that He had made with their fathers, and His testimonies which He had testified against them; they followed idols, became idolaters, and went after the nations who were all around them, concerning whom the Lord had charged them that they should not do like them. (2 Kings 17.15). Now, if we who belong to the Church of Christ abandon the Lord, we will also suffer.

Our wrong attitudes, taken because we do not know the Law and the Testimony, will prevent us from knowing the secrets of faith, for the Son will reveal nothing to us if we are in sin. Consecrate yourself to God and see how much you will learn about your rights in Christ. Those who live on other things, and not only on the Bread that comes from the mouth of the Lord, live badly and stumble a lot (Deuteronomy 8:3; Matthew 4:4). Watch!

In Christ, with love,
