After wandering 40 years in the desert and now at the border of the promise land again. Moses finds it necessary to recount to the people of Israel what happened to this new generation. We find this in Deuteronomy chapter 1.
Moses explains how he encouraged the people of Israel to take hold of the promise, but they rebelled and refused to take hold of it. We are often the same way. God has given many good and wonderful promises in His Word, but we do not lay hold of them.
Let us look at three great promises God has given us, His people.
Ephesians 1:3 says, "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ"
Ephesians 1:18 says, He has given us a rich and glorious inheritance.
Ephesians 1:19 says, He has given us incomparable great power for those who believe.
Today I want to encourage you to believe in God's many promises and lay hold of through faith and obedience. Let us not be rebellious and stubborn like the people of Israel.
