Unchanging Love, Irrevocable Authority, Constancy of Faith


UV3241/10000 Unchanging Love, Irrevocable Authority, Constancy of Faith

For the mountains may be removed and the hills may shake, but My lovingkindness will not be removed from you, nor will My covenant of peace be shaken,” says the Lord who has compassion on you.

Isaiah 54 v 10

The way the Lord has configured nature and our lives, some things are constant, stable and unchanging while some other aspects are variable, changing. His will is irrevocable, His authority is unshakable, His love is constant even if our circumstances of life are changing. No part of our lives is irredeemable in His love. Our covenant based relationship, His commitment to us is unalterable. His word is unchanging and powerful beyond the grasp of our three dimensional world. The peace He gives is like unchanging and unshakable rock. The world cannot take away the peace of Christ. Even in the midst of turmoil, the believer of Christ has perfect peace.

The authority the Lord has given us as kings and the grace or favour He has given us as His priests are unshakable, irrevocable. The constancy of our prayers and praise are the spiritual sacrifices and worship we offer up to the Lord in return for tasting of His grace, love and peace. Prayer is the equivalent of breathing in the spiritual realm while the word or scripture is the equivalent of food. As we fill our nostrils with the breath of God and fill our spiritual bowels with spiritual food, we are strengthened in the inner man and nothing can shake our faith.

The uni-verse says that everything else in this universe can be shaken. The Lord can flatten great mountains or obstacles in our paths. We only need to be consistent in our commitment to our covenant relationship with the Father and the Holy Spirit through the Son. He knows the gaps in our knowledge, understanding and faith even as the enemy knows the chinks in our spiritual armour. Even if we have an iota of faith in His everlasting love and compassion, Jesus defends us against the accuser and remains as chief intercessor on behalf of our souls. The more we know Jesus and understand His incomprehensible love, the more we are set free from the bondages and burdens of this life, the more His love, grace and peace are manifest in our lives.
