Commended to God and
to the word of his grace.
God and His word of
grace are able to build us up, are able to give us an inheritance among all who
are sanctified.
Act 20:32 And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and
to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an
inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
Commended to God- committed to God.
Act 14:23 And
when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with
fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.
Committed to the
Lord.
Given to God for
safe keeping. Can we commit others to
God, can we commend them to God? In a world with so much deception we have to
give over to God their spiritual wellbeing. The world will rip apart any and
all it can in its effort to keep us from God. And by the world I mean the
Prince of this world- Satan. There are
forces at work all around us fighting to keep us from being committed to God,
from being committed to our Lord and Savior.
To be committed to
God, to be committed to the word of God's grace is something truly amazing.
We NEED to be built
up in Christ because only if we are built up in Christ will we receive the
inheritance we need to receive among all who are sanctified.
Jesus in His prayer
to God the Father-
Joh 17:17
Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
Joh 17:18 As
thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the
world.
Joh 17:19 And
for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through
the truth.
The Word of God- the
Word of Truth.
We NEED to know
God's word! Why do we ever imagine it's not important to know God's word? Why?
Let us be commended
to God and to the word of God's grace. Let us be commended to the Lord Jesus
Christ our Savior.
Let us NOT go a
single day without the word of God!
Every day, every
single day we need the word of God! There doesn't exist one day that we do not
need to be committed to God, not one!
