1 Peter 1:3-5
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, 5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
Blessed be the God and Father....wow, what a powerful statement there! It is unheard of now-a-days to bless the Father for anything.
I did a little research and what I've come up with is the pioneers of this great country put God first in everything and before everything. When they woke, it was bless the Father for allowing them to make it through the night.
They took nothing for granted and in everything was grateful and they knew how to bless their Father who art in heaven. They knew of and experienced His great mercy. They knew where to put their hope and trust in after all, there was a brand new world to discover.
They didn't allow anything to deter them from their God and their Savior. In fact, a personal relationship with the Christ is still evident today in how they setup this country. Without their walk and the blessing of God behind them, who knows what America would be like today.
Do you think God is done with His people because of all the fore fathers being gone? Not at all. We are suppose to be the last generation. The greatest generation. The generation that has the most knowledge of who God and Jesus is. We are suppose to be walking in the power of the Spirit. Sadly, I don't see much of that happening.
You think we, His children have take Him by surprise? I don't think so. I think He has something up His sleeve and like the scripture says, who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
That's us! His church. His bride! He has hidden us away until Himself until He is ready to reveal us to the world without spot or winkle for a mighty outpouring of His glory. So great ready, there's a shift in the air and God is about to move!!
Do it now Lord! Show me Your glory!!!
God Bless.
