Genesis 17: 5
God blesses in a special manner with a name:
God intervenes with a person by either prioritizing the purpose of his calling or in a manner concerning with the purpose of his lost calling. As long as we stay in His calling, He calls and leads us prioritizing the future blessings or goodness we are prone to inherit. But when a person falls back from God’s calling, God deals with him with regard to the evil he is prone to encounter. The reason being, not that he might be destroyed, rather, to emphasize His warning through such an intervention. We are known in God’s presence either by our blessings or by our misbehavior. You mightn’t be aware of the purpose of God’s call, but the Lord who called you is certain about it. Every person who has made a covenant with the Lord has the assurance that the Lord is aware of all things of his life.
God’s whole-hearted decision:
The pride that a person who has made a covenant with the Lord holds is the fact that the Lord blesses him whole-heartedly. Much greater and honorable it is when I, who has made a covenant with the Lord follow the Lord whole-heartedly and lead my life. The blessings and greatness we, as children of God possess is indescribable by anyone, unable to be fathomed by anybody and also unacceptable by anyone. In-spite of our faults, weaknesses, shortcomings, inabilities, oppressions, when we look up to the Lord, He desires to lead, bless, honor and lead us whole-heartedly. When the Lord leads us whole-heartedly, our entire life is taken forward.
God’s determined decision:
Due to the determined decision the Lord has concerning us, He hits and drags us to be back on track when we slide to the left or right and consistently restrict on our actions. He leads His people who have made a covenant with him in a whole-heartedly determined way concerning His purpose in their life. Commit yourselves not only to the whole-hearted purpose the Lord has concerning you, but also to the determined decision. When you walk in that whole-hearted decision of the Lord, you will never backslide. Commit yourselves to the whole-hearted will of the Lord and abide in it whole-heartedly, and the Lord will lead you, bless you.
