Pastor’s Pen for Sunday, 4-6-25
As we seek God concerning the spiritual and the natural, we can find in the Word of God powerful examples of what it takes to have a life that walks by faith and not by sight. The Bible reveals a people committed to a life set apart for the glory of God. They were people just like all other people except they had faith in God. Their faith in God set them apart then and our faith in God sets us apart now. What an encouragement to present-day Believers when they see in God’s Word how saints of old coped with their storms and trials of their faith. They weren’t given anything more special to deal with their tests than what we have. They weren’t given anything except what were their covenant rights and what was considered the children’s bread. Honestly, we are the more blessed as it relates to the Old & New Covenants. We have the better covenant with better promises. We have the Holy Spirit dwelling inside of us. The Old Testament saints did not have the blessing of the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit like the New Covenant Church enjoys today. We have more revelation. We’re under grace and not under the law. We are the more blessed because the Old Testament was the New Testament concealed, and the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed. Jesus is our Guarantee of the New Covenant. Ours is the generation with the revelation of the God-man, the Christ, God in the flesh, Immanuel, the second person of the trinity, by whose name is the only name under heaven by which men must be saved. Therefore, in all honesty, we’re in the most blessed time for the Church. We live in the age of the Spirit outpouring and the Lord’s soon return. Amen!
In His Service,
Pastor Jeffery A. Muchison
Scripture for Sunday, 4-6-25
Hebrews 11:13 (KJV)
13
These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
