God is a promise keeper. Whenever He says He will do a thing you best know He will come through and do what He said He will do. God is a covenant keeper. The word covenant means a solemn agreement that is binding on all parties. God will never forsake or negate His word but will always fulfill His part.

The bible declares in 2Timothy 3:1-5, that people would become lovers of themselves in the last days. Selfishness is the root of covenant breaking. When we see alerting divorce rates soaring high, this is a resort of selfishness. Selfishness is a work of the flesh, the lower sinful nature of man. The nature of sin was passed down to all man-kind from Adam after he was separated from God. The nature of sin was born out of hatred and evil, its father is Satan.

When we are born-again into the family of God, God gives us a new nature, the nature of Love. God is Love. The scripture says whatever is born of God overcomes the world. When we are living a life of love, there is no room in our heart for selfishness.

To be a covenant keeper we must live a life of love and selflessness. Love always believes the best of every person. Love always puts others before itself. Love always keeps its word because love is of God.

God promised us that He would Redeem man by sending His only Son to die for our sins…………and He did just what He said He would do.

God promised that He would never leave us nor forsake us……….and He never has and He never will.

God promised that He would one day send Jesus back to get His church……………………and He will.

God is a promise keeper.God does not just say things to gain our friendship or favor. He is faithful to His word. God has never spoken an idle word, He will always be true to you, and He cannot lie. God is a promise keeper, so whatever He has told you that He will do in your life, He will keep His promise……….always.

We are God’s children if we are born-again. We should look like our Father in every way. If you grow up in a home with a mother and father present the children begin to mimick their parents. The begin to talk like them and walk like them and think like them and act like them. We are born of God therefore we should look like Him and act like Him. God has never done or said anything that He would not want us to hear or see. He has always provided for us an example of excellence and holiness. He has always exemplied purity and self-control. He has always given us an example of faithfulness and honesty. We have never seen Him cheating or wrongly treating anyone. He has never spoken a vain, slanderous or corrupt word. His words are always pure. We have the best example to follow in our Father. He is my hero.

We too can be like our Father in being a promise keeper. I am honored to look just like my Heavenly DAD!

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?

Luke 9:44 Jesus said: ” Let these sayings sink down into your ears…

Are you listening? God has many things to say to you. The words that God speak are what we live by. Man was created by God and designed to live by every word that proceeds out of His mouth. His words are vital to our very existence. Jesus said let these sayings sink down, inferring there can be a shallow form of hearing. We hear but don’t hear, we hear and don’t understand what we hear and the words just become mere casual conversation. We must put a greater value on the words that God speak than any other words spoken to us, regardless at whatever time in our life they were spoken, no matter who else it was that said it. God’s word is spirit and it is life. It is not just something we can casually choose to ignore, without experiencing grave consequences. If God said His word is life to me and health to all my flesh, and that it is the very substance of my life, then for me to not partake of it would mean death and destruction. Oh yes, it’s that important. Jesus said let these words, meaning we can control how deep the Word penetrates our life. We can stop it’s progress when we don’t honor it, esteeming other things and words over it. When we place more importance on what somebody else is saying. Proper spiritual growth and development depends on what takes root in your life. The sayings that sink down deep are the ones we allow to guide and influence our everyday life. Critical decisions that we make daily, decisions that not only effect our lives but the lives of others, are all based on the things that we have allowed to sink down deep in our hearing. Be more selective and protective of the words you allow to go to the deeper parts of your being.

And He said to them, Be careful what you are hearing. The measure (of thought and study) you give (to the truth you hear) will be the measure (of virtue and knowledge) that comes back to you and more (besides) will be given to you who hear. Mark 4:24 (amp)

Daniel 5:12

Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of hard sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation. 

In today’s society sloppy, mediocre living is so very acceptable. However, we (Christian’s) are in this world but not of this world, we are from a far greater kingdom.

Daniel was a man in who was found an excellent spirit. He served God with pure motives and genuine devotion. He was a man of courage and passion. He did not allow society to dictate his life. Daniel proved his loyalty to the one and only true God. He did not compromise just to be accepted in this world’s system. He lived a life worth of praise though he never received man’s praise for his inward qualities.

Daniel lived and displayed a lifestyle of honor. Excellence speaks of integrity. It is a priceless virtue that cannot be faked. An excellent spirit shuns mediocrity and laughs at defeat. It bows its knee only to the one True God who is worthy. Excellence knows no fear. It is humble, never driven by foolish pride or earthly cheer. A person who possesses an excellent spirit governs their life by the standard of the Word of God. They think like God and always endeavor to please Him. They do not fill their spirit and soul with the filthy conversation of the world; they keep themselves unspotted from the evil influences of the world. They are stalwart and unmovable in what they believe and refuse to bend at every wind of persecution and adversity. They say no to laziness and slack, they march forward never looking back. An excellent spirit is never dishonest but rather always trustworthy.

A person who is of an excellent spirit does not gossip or complain; they shun vanity and crucify shame. They walk in the fear of the Lord and in His name they conquer every enemy far and near. They are strong and obedient to their God who is supreme; they give up everything in honor of their King.

An excellent spirit cannot be inherited from our earthly bloodline nor acquired in a dream; it is imparted to us freely when we receive the nature of God. However, we must be willing to cultivate and practice it, to help it grow.

Excellent defined:

• The quality or state of being outstanding and superior.

• A feature or respect in which somebody or something is superior and outstanding.

Remember the words of the Apostle Peter:

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;

 (1Peter 2:9)

1Thessalonians 5:17

Pray without ceasing

Prayer is the conduit that helps divine resources and supply pass from heaven to earth. God provided every believer with the ability to pray. The Holy Spirit will also assist us with kingdom communication. We must know how to properly dialogue in God’s kingdom. When you properly communicate with someone there is an exchange that takes place. Failure to communicate with our Heavenly Father is deadly.

But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Matthew 4:4

We have been granted access to the very throne of God. God said COME BOLDLY. (Hebrews 4:16)

Talking with God throughout your day is vital and must never be taken for granted or seen as trivial. Remember your union and fellowship with Him should be the highest priority of the day, even if you have to put others on the line on hold.

Pray without ceasing!

Psalms 37:23-24

The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. 

Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.

A step is a short movement made by raising one foot and lowering it ahead of the other foot. Putting one foot in front of the other is the safest way to go forward. When our stride is off or out of sync we are at risk of stumbling and eventually falling. We need harmony in our steps even if it seems like we are not moving very fast or going far. We need to always make sure that one foot is securely down before we raise the other foot. The above scripture says the steps not just one step but many, indicating a particular manner of walking, not running, skipping or jumping. Those other forms of movement are not forbidden in and of themselves but one must learn to walk before he can run. Allow God to order and arrange your steps and watch your life prosper and be a delight along the way.
