A Living Testament

My Dearest You,

Do you know that God did not stop speaking when the bible ended in Revelation? God continues to speak to us through his Living Word, his Holy Spirit.

Here is revelation that came to me through the Holy Spirit during my devotional time with God.

There is the Old Testament which is the law given by God, and the covenant with Abraham to make him father of many nations. The New Testament which is the covenant between God and Jesus. The agreement that Jesus would come to save the world and become King (Ruler) over every nation.

Now, there is the Living Testament. What? Yes, a Living Testament.

This is where we come in. It is a covenant between God and us through his Holy Spirit. How do we get in covenant with God?

When we allow Jesus to come into our lives and then we come into agreement with the Living Word of God, his Holy Spirit, and apply the Word to our own life and live the way God intended. It's when you surrender your life to Christ so that your personal life is a living testimony to God's goodness and love.

What does God agree to do for you when you come into agreement with him?

There are so many promises attached to your obedience. Here are a few: God promises to never to leave you or forsake you, to give you life eternally, to be your source and provider, and you will enjoy the fruit of his spirit as you continue to stay in agreement with him.

You must understand that God has chosen you to do certain things for HIM here on Earth. When you do what God has called you to do, there are promises attached to your obedience.

Jesus says, "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly" (John 10-10).

How can you have life and have it more abundantly? By allowing Jesus to come into your life, and giving up your wants and ways of doing things for the life God has planned for you.
