Even from the very beginning God has always wanted to do for us GREAT GOOD......deno.....share freely

........It amazed me when I saw this. God chose Israel to be His very special people on the earth to represent Him and His Name and Goodness and to bring thru them by HIS SON, HIS SO GREAT A SALVATION TO ALL THE WORLD. He moved upon them with divine favor and motivated their allegiance and their obedience to Him with all the high and mighty covenant promises that we read in Deuteronomy 28. He said, Love the Lord your God. Obey my commands and statutes and be faithful. Serve only Me and put My Word first in your life to obey my Words and I the Lord, I Swear I will make you the GREATEST MOST POWERFUL AND MOST WEALTHIEST PEOPLE AND NATION ON EARTH. You will be the head and not the tail. You will be above only and not beneath. You will be a people in this land rich and flowing with My Milk and My Honey and all the nations of the earth will favor you and call you GODS BLESSED NATION, HIS PECULIAR PEOPLE ON EARTH.
.... But this is what happened. Just as Satan stole from Adam and Eve all the GOOD that God created for them to have and to enjoy by his subtle lies and temptation, even so Satan came against Israel the people of God and tempted them over and over again (persistent to his cause) and the children of Israel over and over again sinned against God. Satan by all kinds of means he turned Israels heart from God to serve idols and they over and over again committed physical and spiritual adulteries and suffered the hard ways of the transgressors instead of the blessed smooth ways of the obedient.
.......Friends, even so it is with many of us GODS PEOPLE IN CHRIST TODAY. How often Jesus wanted to gather us unto himself, use us for his purpose as vessels unto his honor, and bless us beyond our highest dreams, to take us to further heights of His grace for us but over and over again Satan came and tempted us by all means after the flesh like he did Israel in their hour and instead of really resisting Satan as Jesus did, we chose the pleasure of sin more than the honor of God seen in His promises to those who resist the devil and obey Jesus Christ faithfully. The result for our stubborn disobediences has been  the flow of what Jesus wanted to do for us and thru us was QUENCHED AND HIS SPIRIT GRIEVED, and the precious fruit was not brought forth. But friends, it does not have to end there, not that way for us. For we have an exceeding great promise of the merciful God given us as a single person and as a nation of believers.
......IF MY PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME WILL HUMBLE THEMSELVES AND SEEK MY FACE AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS AND PRAY. THEN WILL I HEAR THEM FROM HEAVEN AND THEN WILL I HEAL THEM AND THEIR LAND.....deno......share freely.

Matthew 23:37) O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that kills the Prophets and stones the people that I have sent to you, HOW OFTEN I wanted to gather you and your descendants  together, even as a protecting hen does her chicks under her wings BUT YOU DID NOT LET ME....He said, Your sins have separated you from God and from His wings.
