FROM THE KEYBOARD

The stature of God stands behind the person (or people) who abide by the statutes of God. You see, the Lord is looking for a loyal heart to stand behind and set apart. "For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him" (2 Chronicles 16:9).

Having a certain faith in the midst of uncertain days always trusts in God's certain ways. In other words, you don't need to know it all when you know the One who holds it all. "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1).

It is incompatible to know that God bought you, while still living as if sin owns you. Mind you, in Christ, "you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s" (I Corinthians 6:20).

The only way the decree of death can be avoided is if the decree of life null and voids it. In other words, the wages of sin is death and ALL are under such a decree. However, the Son paid the price with His life and it's this decree that sets one free. (See Romans 6:23 and Colossians 2:13-14)

A throne established in righteousness is not about "right or left" but right or wrong. You see, a nation will rise or fall based on whether or not it follows God's law. "Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne will be established in righteousness" (Proverbs 25:5).

God honors those who honor Him. And the honor of God isn't always promotion, but it's always preservation. So whether lifted up higher when hired or even when wrongly fired, the honor of God always keeps us through every trial. "For those who honor Me I will honor, and those who despise Me shall be lightly esteemed" (I Samuel 2:30b).
