Do you have God's law in your heart?

Heb 8:10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
Heb 8:11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
Heb 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
Heb 8:13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.


Do you have God's laws in your mind? Do you have God's law in your heart? Is God, your only God? Do all around you know the Lord? I'm not talking know Him as a personal Savior for the answer to that would be instantly, no. Do most people you know, know God, know of Him and His mercy? With the publicity that is in our world today it's hard to imagine anyone not knowing the name 'God', in fact many are blasphemers of that holy name, making themselves as gods. They know what it means to be God, the one and only true God, even if their teaching has been through ridicule of Him or abuse of Him in horror games, movies and such. There are very few people you could stop that would look at you like you're insane if you ask them who God is. They might want to give some philosphical, or mythical idea of an answer, or even say they don't believe in God, but they know the original that has been perverted in many ways to suit the warped, sinfilled people today. God is merciful to our unrighteousness and if we repent and ask for forgiveness our sins are remembered no more. The new covenant is found in the blood of Christ not the blood of innocent animals, the new covenant will live forever and ever never to wax old or vanish away. The laws of God remain always, the way to forgiveness for breaking the laws has changed. We live with a new covenant, we live with God's laws in our minds and on our hearts. God is part of our very life. God's ways are our ways. We are blessed under the new covenant and one day sin will be no more, may that day come soon, very, very soon. By the grace and mercy of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ may we be God's under His new covenant forever living in Him with His laws in our hearts and minds.


Amen.
