Focus on the Lord
EXHORTATION through the BOOK of LIFE
Scripture to ponder on :
“Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this day, because he wholly followed the Lord God of Israel.”
Joshua 14:14 NKJV
FOCUS ON THE LORD
What are your eyes fixed on today? Are they focused on the darkness that is in the world? Or are they fixed on the Lord's promises for your life?
My main intention here is to turn your eyes away from the destruction you see every day, and to turn them to our beautiful Lord Jesus.
Do you know what Caleb's secret to long life was? The passage above tells us that it was found in simply following the Lord. Hebron was the name for one of the cities of refuge in the Bible. In Hebrew, "Hebron" means fellowship or association. This speaks of intimacy, closeness, and connection with the Lord.
There is no formula to long life. It's all about having an intimate relationship with Jesus. Our Lord Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. He came that we might have life and have it more abundantly. Follow Him and find the path to a long and abundant life.
Don't forget that everything Caleb experienced was under the old covenant. His renewal of youth and unabated strength and vigor were all experienced under the old covenant. How much more should we be experiencing this renewal of youth, boundless energy, and length of days under the new covenant of grace that is established on better promises (Heb. 8:6)!
Jesus’ beloved!
AMEN vé AMEN 🙏🏾🙏🏾!!
