Knowing Jesus Daily Devotional | October 27, 2019 – Enrich and Sustain your relationship with Jesus reading our daily devotional – Hebrews 11-27 – By Faith, Moses Forsook Egypt, not fearing Pharoah’s anger because He Believed in the One Who is Invisible
Beloved, it is not a secret, as a child of God, your safety is guaranteed as you look heavenward to Him alone in all things and at all times.
Isaiah 45:22 Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else
Psalms 34:5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.
Jer 17:7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is. For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
Believers exposed themselves to avoidable pains when they looked downward and lean on the arms of flesh for anything and at anytime.
Psa 60:11 Give us help from trouble:for vain is the help of man
Jer 17:5 Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord. For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
It was looking up to God alone that provided Moses the needed present help in time of his crisis, when he needed deliverance from the sword of Pharoah , the tyrant monarch who was determined to kill him.
Hebrews 11:27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
Always remember to do same anytime and every time you needed help or support.
Psa 46:1 — God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High. God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
Beloved, see men of like passion like you who were committed to looking up to God and were not disappointed. So resolve to be doing same henceforth, for your safety too. It shall be well with you in Jesus name.
David
Psalms 5:3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
Psa 121:1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.
Daniel
Dan 6:20 And when he came to the den, he cried with a lamentable voice unto Daniel: and the king spake and said to Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, is thy God, whom thou servest continually, able to deliver thee from the lions? Then said Daniel unto the king, O king, live for ever. My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions’ mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt. Then was the king exceeding glad for him, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed in his God.
Three Hebrews
Dan 3:14 – Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up? Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands? Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter. If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
The good Lord shall help you in particular in Jesus name.
Dearly beloved, Jesus Christ our Lord and savior, gave believers of all ages and you in particular, a worthwhile example, during His earthly ministry. He lived a lifestyle of total dependence on God . He looked upward for all things and at all times.
Mar 6:41 And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.
Jn 11:41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me. And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.
Luke 23:46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
The blessed Holy Spirit pointing believers of all ages, most especially you, to follow this gracious example of Jesus, gave them, this all important exhortation. See it.
Hebrews 11:27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
See how believers in Bible days committed themselves to following this worthwhile example.
Stephen
Act 7:55 But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God, And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God. Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord, And cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man’s feet, whose name was Saul. And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
Paul.
Act 27:18 – And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next day they lightened the ship; And the third day we cast out with our own hands the tackling of the ship. And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope that we should be saved was then taken away. But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss. And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man’s life among you, but of the ship. For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, Saying, Fear not, Paul; you will be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee. Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me.
So you too should continue to do likewise till you see Jesus. You shall not be disappointed in Jesus name.
Friend, to guarantee your readiness for the dawning rapture, you must be looking up to heaven at all times.
As you are looking up to God in preparation for the rapture, commit yourself to doing the following.
1. Set your affection on heavenly things and take all your decisions from the perspective of eternity.
Col 3:1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
2. Follow the example of Jesus and be willing to endure difficulties.
Hebrews 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3. Never be tired in your continual preparation and expectation, for the dawning rapture.
Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
4. Take advantage of the grace of God to live godly lifestyle that guarantees your readiness.
