For I am the Lord, I change not; Jacob can not be consumed

Knowing JESUS Daily Devotional | March 22, 2019. Enrich and Sustain your relationship with Jesus reading our daily devotional – For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. – Malachi 3:6.

Beloved, if you cast your mind back and pounder on the great exploits saints of old did, you will come to appreciate the greatness of Jehovah, the blessed I am that I am.

Exodus 3:14: And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

Exodus 6:3. And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name Jehovah was I not known to them.

How could Joseph had preserved grain for fourteen years, to feed Egypt and the then whole word? Think of the terror and miracles Moses performed before the hard heartened Pharaoh bowed and let go Israel after four hundred and thirty years of captivity.

How could the three Hebrews defied boastful Nebuckadnezer, king of the whole world and triumphed in the furnace of fire ?

Can you comprehend how Daniel a captive slave became highly exalted, preferred and remain relevant in the reign of four different dynasties?

Think of how he survived the den of lions?

Then, the truth should be dawn on you, that, the people who know their God shall do exploits.

Daniel 11:32. And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.

Interestingly, the God that was there for them called Jehovahshama is now, not just your God, but your loving Father through redemption. He has not in anyway changed. From eternity past to eternity future, He remains the sane. See how, He described Himself.

Malachi 3:6. For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.

Beloved, if the saints of old could do those great exploits , because they had God as their God, you should do more, because He is now more than God to you, He is your Father.

John 20:17. Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

God was all the saints of old had and was sufficient for them. They never reverted to the arms of flesh. So must it be for you too. He should be sufficient for you too, you do not need any human God father.

2 Corinthians 3:5. Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;

Beloved, see how the Bible reveals God and these revelations are the reasons why God should be all you need for all things pertaining to your wellbeing till Jesus comes. They are inexhaustible see some of them.

Numbers 23:19. God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

Isaiah 40:28-31. Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Isaiah 41:4: Who hath wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I the LORD, the first, and with the last; I am he.

Isaiah 42:5 -8. Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles; To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house. I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

Isaiah 43:11 -12. I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour. I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange godamong you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God.

Isaiah 45:5 -8. ¶I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.

James 1:17: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

Because God is all of these and you claim to be one of His children, never ever belittle Him, seeking help from the arm of flesh. May the Lord find you dependable leaning only on Him.

Isaiah 2:22. Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?

Psalms 62:5. My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.

Dearly beloved, do you know that, all that the saints of old enjoyed in God, can not be compared with what the believers of all ages, enjoyed in Jesus Christ.

He is your brother, your friend and succourer.

Proverbs 18:24. A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

John 15:13-14. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people. For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.

Bible days believers had so much confidence in Him, because of what they knew about Him.

John 6:66-69. From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.

2 Timothy 1:12. For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.

Amazingly, Jesus remains the same. Today’s believers are not inferior to Bible days believers and you have the same access and privileges, just like Peter and Paul.

Jesus has not changed and will never ever change for all eternity.

Hebrews 13:8. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

See some of the things they knew about Jesus, that made them cleave to Him in unwavering trust.

All you need is to believe same and you also will begin to do exploits through Him, till He comes.

John 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

John 8:56 -58. Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

Psalms 90:2: Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou artGod.

Revelation 1:8: I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

Revelation 1:17-18. And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

Revelation 3:14. And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;

Revelation 22:13: I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

Dearly beloved, if only you can believe, then from henceforth, you will begin to experience glory, favour and blessings through Him, till He comes.

John 11:40. Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

FROM ETERNITY PAST TO ETERNITY FUTURE, JESUS REMAINS UNCHANGED. HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE SUFFICIENT FOR BELIEVERS OF ALL AGES, ESPECIALLY YOU.

Friend, the dawning rapture is very important to God the Father and Jesus Christ. Adam deprived God of the fellowship, He lounged to have with humanity.

God is still insatiable passionate about fellowshipping with humanity.

The reason why you should do everything to partake in this dawning rapture, is because it will afford you fellowship that angels can never ever have with God.

See this and believe it and ensure you are part of it.

Revelation 21:3-5. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

But then, not all roads leads to heaven as all roads lead to Rome. See how the Bible describes the road you must take , for you to partake in this eternal fellowship.

Isaiah 35:8-9. And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein. No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there:

Matthew 7:13-14. Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there bewhich go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Friend you will need to strive to enter this road and you will need to strive to remain there, because that is the only road that leads to the pearly gate of heaven.

Luke 13:24-29. Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able. When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are: Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets. But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out. And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.

By the time you get to the pearly gate see what awaits you for all eternity. You can not afford to miss this.

Never ever allow any transient thing or any being to take you away from the road to eternal life. The good Lord shall help you in Jesus name.

Revelation 7:9-17. After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God, Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
