Immanuel
Isaiah 7:14 │ Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the
virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Joshua and Caleb, who had spied out Canaan in advance, gave a report that didn’t make any sense. Rather, the report given by the other ten people was more valid. But in the end, Joshua and Caleb were the only ones who entered Canaan. In fact, until the very end, they remained inside the promised Word of God. Then, where; when; and to what extent must you enjoy the Word that is found within Immanuel?
1.You Must Enjoy Immanuel Every Day and Everywhere
God has been and will be with you from eternity to eternity. He sent Jesus as the Christ and completely solved the problems of Hell, Satan, and disasters. You must enjoy these blessings every day and make them your priority in life. In addition, answers regarding your academics and businesses must also come from here.
2.You Must Enjoy Immanuel within the Word and Covenant
Whenever the nation of Israel encountered crises and disasters, God restored them through the blessing of Immanuel. The Israelites who had fallen into slavery held onto
the covenant that “God is with us.” Even though they again
lost hold of the covenant and became captives, the phrase, “those who dwell in the Word” remained. When they became colonized by Rome, the members of the Early Church restored the “Word.”Matthew 1:23
Rather than holding onto God’s Word and praying, people respond more to the words of others. Starting today, you must restore your walk of faith and enter the Word wherever you are and see others through the eyes of the Gospel.
