Arise! Enter In (May 7, 2013)

 

Arise!  Enter In.

 

 

Gen 13:17 Arise, walk through the land, the length of it and the breadth of it, for I will give it to you. 

These are God's words to Abraham after he'd not only left his country and family, but after he'd given Lot first choice of the lands that lay ahead of them before they parted ways.
Inserting the word meanings in this scripture from Strong's Concordance brings a clearer picture of what God was saying to Abraham: Arise (lift your head, be established and strengthened, endure), walk through the land (enter in), the length and breadth of it (the all encompassing magnitude of it), for I will give it to you (I commit it to you as my gift).
Today, enter in and take hold of what God has given you. Lift your head and be strengthened, knowing that His all encompassing promises belong to you as a blood bought child of the great inheritance! See that all He has given is to extend grace to a dieing world and love to His children. To Him be all glory!
