Cry aloud, spare not!

 “As for Me, says the Lord, this is My covenant with them: My Spirit who is upon you, and My words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your descendants, nor from the mouth of your descendants’ descendants, says the Lord, from this time and forevermore.” Isaiah 59.21

How wonderful is it to be assured that the Lord keeps His covenant with us. To know that  His Spirit is in us, His Word is in our mouths and that all this is extended to our generations forever. I bring this word upon my life and also transfer it to you, the followers of this blog. Be blessed by this word!

The dew of Mount Hermon

"Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious oil upon the head, running down on the beard, the beard of Aaron, running down on the edge of his garments. It is like the dew of Hermon, descending upon the mountains of Zion; For there the Lord commanded the blessing—Life forevermore." Psalm 133.1-3 

Mount Hermon represents the Mount of Consecration. It is the place where the Lord Jesus was transfigured, glorified and consecrated by God the Father before Peter, James and John. The Jordan River is formed from its sources and it supplies all Israel. It also typifies the Holy Spirit, which sustains the New Israel, the Church, worldwide. Led by the Spirit, King David says that is this Mount the Lord commanded His blessing and eternal life.

God of the New Israel

“It shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are still speaking, I will hear." Isaiah 65.24

The promises of God are clear, but subject to conditions. They are like an exchange...
If there is obedience, then, in return, there are blessings; if there is disobedience, then no deal.
In reality, this "exchange" is nothing more than an expression of faith and trust in Him.

The Promise

"...that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith." Galatians 3.14

Abraham was the firstfruits of God to bless his descendants. He typified Jesus, the Firstborn of God, to bless the Jews who believe.
Jesus came to extend the Abrahamic blessing to the Gentiles who believe in Him. This blessing is not limited to material possessions, but above all, to receive His Spirit.

ABRAHAM

"Get out of your country, From your family and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you."            Genesis 12.1

The first words God said to Abraham before making him a blessing was "Get out....".
God could not execute His plan through Abraham while he maintained any kind of  relationship with his family's pagan costumes.  
The same happens today. How can someone be born of water and the Holy Spirit if they remain involved with the idolatrous customs of the society they live in?
Those who want to be a blessing must leave behind the curse of sin.

PATIENCE

"I waited patiently for the Lord, and He inclined to me and heard my cry."     Psalm 40.1

Trust is a virtue very few people possess. This is why very few people are also saved. Those who trust in God's promises aren't shaken by the storms. Instead, they wait patiently for their blessings because they trust that He who promised them is faithful and does not fail.

LISTEN TO ME AND LOOK...

"Listen to Me, you who follow after righteousness, you who seek the Lord... Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah who bore you; for I called him alone, and blessed him and increased him."   Isaiah 51:1-2

This message is for those who thirst Justice. That is, those who are more interested in the Lord, rather than His blessings. It is for these people that the Lord uses Abraham and Sarah as references of what He did and continues wanting to do in the life of those who truly love Him. 

The Inheritance

“As for you, my son Solomon, know the God of your father, and serve Him with a loyal heart and with a willing mind; for the LORD searches all hearts and understands all the intent of the thoughts. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will cast you off forever.” I Chronicles 28.9

David left to Solomon an immeasurable inheritance. But the condition was that he remained loyal to the Lord his God. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will cast you off forever. Which one will you choose? The blessing or the curse?

Joy

"Do not sorrow, for the joy of the LORD is your strength." 

Nehemiah 8:10

Just like parents want the best for their children, so does God. His joy is to see His children strong and happy, conquering and blessing others around them.

Wake up

"The Lord GOD has given Me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him who is weary. He awakens Me morning by morning, He awakens My ear to hear as the learned."

Isaiah 50:4

It's an extraordinary privilege to hear God's Voice in the morning, just as it is to allow Him to use our tongue as an instrument of blessings to many.

Rebuke

"Let the righteous strike me; It shall be a kindness. And let him rebuke me; It shall be as excellent oil;  Let my head not refuse it. " Psalm 141:5

A rebuke must never be considered bad, in fact, for those who are of God, it's a blessing.

The Blessing

"And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing."

Genesis 12:2

We are part of the nation that was promised to Abraham, and will continue to be as long as we keep obeying God just as Abraham did. The promise still stands for his descendants in faith, not even a comma has been canceled.
