The Clause That Makes It All Happen
Hebrews 8:12
|
We are no longer under the old covenant. We are now under
the new covenant. And in this new covenant, God says that He will do three
things for us:
Lead us — “I will put My
laws in their mind and write them on their hearts.” (Hebrews 8:10) These are
the laws of faith, love and liberty to guide you in everything you do. It is a
spontaneous, dynamic, active and intimate way to be led by God.
Work miracles for us — “I will be
their God, and they shall be My people.” (Hebrews 8:10) The phrase “I will be
their God” denotes a miracle-working God. So if you are sick and God says, “I
will be your God,” get ready for healing! If you are poor and God says, “I will
be your God,” get ready for prosperity!
Cause us to know Him
effortlessly — “… all shall know Me, from the least of them to the
greatest of them.” (Hebrews 8:11) The Greek word for “know” here is eido.
It means to know intuitively without effort. This means that you will know God
easily.
Do you want to experience all these blessings in your life
today?
“Of course, Ayeh, I want to be led by God. I want Him to
work miracles in my life. I want to know Him intimately without straining or
striving.”
Then, you need to know the clause that makes it all happen:
“For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their
lawless deeds I will remember no more.” The words “no more” in
the Greek carry a strong double-negative sense. So God is saying, “I will
never, by no means, remember your sins!”
Beloved, the more you believe this in your heart, the more
you will see those blessings fulfilled in your life. When you realize how much
God has forgiven you and remembers your sins no more, you will know Him, His
ways and His will for you intimately and intuitively without effort.
So believe in your heart today the clause on which all these
blessings hinge, and get ready for miracles and hopes fulfilled in the days
ahead!
