(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. - ROMANS 4:17
JESUS' DAY Topic
"....even God....."
First Stanza
".....A father to many nations....."
When Our PRECIOUS LORD AND GOD JESUS CHRIST {JOHN 20:28} CALLED HIS Friend Abraham the father of us all from his homeland unto a land HE Would show him, Abraham (Abram at the time of his Calling) went out and obeyed, not knowing where he was going {HEBREWS 11:8}.
Let's faith it. Many a times JESUS Calls us to do things we don't readily feel up to doing. However, when we are obedient, no matter what thoughts the devil tries to throw at us {JAMES 4:7}, we can confidently and patiently accomplish through Christ Who Strengthens us {PHILIPPIANS 4:13} all that JESUS HIMSELF HAS CALLED us to do.
2nd Stanza
".....before him whom he believed....."
As touching things concerning our first stanza, we see the Patriarch Abraham {HEBREWS 7:4} believing even at his old age with his body as good as dead, that JESUS (WHO HAS ALWAYS BEEN LORD AND GOD - JOHN 20:28) was able to Give him the Promised Child even though his wife Sarah was barren at at the age of 90 when she conceived seed {GENESIS 17:17}.
Just think how great he was: Even the patriarch Abraham gave him a tenth of the plunder! - HEBREWS 7:4
Where for my dear friend this faith that JESUS Gave to Abraham was evident that it has grown and with the Aid of ALMIGTY JESUS BOLSTERED him in his faith in order that when times of doubt and fear crept in , he remained faithful knowing that ALMIGHTY GOD Was able to accomplish what he had so lovingly promised.
3rd Stanza
".....quickeneth the dead....."
My friend went we step out in faith and ask ALMIGHTY JESUS TO HELP Us along the pathway of our walk with HIS HOLY SPIRIT, HE WILL ALWAYS COME THROUGH in our behalf {2 CORINTHIANS 7:14}. When we understand that "GOD'S GOT THIS", whereby we need not worry or fear anything {ISAIAH 41:10, PHILIPPIANS 4:6}, because the same GOD That takes care of the birds ensuring that they have meat, is the same GOD That WATCHES over us, ensuring that we have all we need in order {PHILIPPIANS 4:19} to be vessels apt to teach {1 TIMOTHY 3:2} fit for the Masters use {2 TIMOTHY 2:21}.
4th Stanza
".....And calleth those things....."
Our HOLY BIBLE GOES On to tell us that ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST'S GIFTS AND CALLINGS ARE IRREVOCABLE {ROMANS 11:29}. Wherefore if JESUS HAS CALLED you unto a Work For HIS GLORY ALONE, HE WILL SEE TO IT that no matter how long the Vison takes to manifest itself, to wait for it.
Waiting is not always easy I know. Although I've waited 18 years to walk again without assistance, you can mark my words the WORD THAT I Know ALMIGHTY JESUS HAS GIVEN TO me, that by Thanksgiving 2022 (IF THE LORD JESUS TARRIES IN HIS SOON-COMING SECOND COMING), I will be walking. So please keep me in your prayers.
5th Stanza
".....which be not as though they were....."
Lastly, when JESUS CALLS Things or persons, HE DOES SO Even when it looks like it's impossible for something to come to pass, Our LORD AND GOD SPECIALIZES IN THE IMPOSSIBLE {LUKE 1:37 - HOLY BIBLE, King James Version}. There's nothing HE can't do. Just continue to press on and forget the past, and ask God to help you to think right, pray right, hear right, speak right, and do right.
When we do this, we, as MADE in our FATHER'S IMAGE AND LIKENESS, we too can call those things which be not as though they were, and witness JESUS PERFORM THE MIRACULOUS IN our lives, as well, showing forth to a Land in desperate need of the HOPE that's FOUND, ONLY IN THE LOVE OF JESUS AND HIS WORD, in order that many will come to THE CROSS OF CALVARY {LUKE 23:33} AND THE EMPTY TOMB OF THAT RESURRECTION Sunday {LUKE 24:34}, IN order that all men will Believe THE GOSPEL MESSAGE.
This MESSAGE OF THE DEATH {JOHN 19:30}, BURIAL {JOHN 19:38-40}, AND RESURRECTION {JOHN 20} OF Our LORD AND GOD JESUS CHRIST {JOHN 20:28}, and BE SAVED {ROMANS 10:13}. IN JESUS NAME {MATTHEW 18:20}!!!!! "Dear children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}" "The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God's people. Amen. {REVELATION 22:21}"
JESUS' , Thank YOU FOR YOU!!!!! JESUS, Thank YOU FOR THE CROSS {JOHN 19:30} AND RESURRECTION {JOHN 20:1-7}.
