"Faithful is He that calleth you, who also
will do it."1 Thessalonians 5:24
If you can believe with un staggering faith that
"faithful is He that calleth you, who also will do it." you will
drink the juice of the spiced wine of the Lord's pomegranate, and taste the
dainty fruits of Paradise. You will have an antepast of the enjoyments which
ravish the souls of the perfect saints above.
The doctrine of God's word is, that all who are in
union with the Lamb are safe; that all the righteous shall hold on their way;
that those who have committed their souls to the keeping of Christ shall find
Him a faithful and immutable preserver enjoying the joys of blissful security. Sustained
by such a doctrine we can enjoy security even on earth; that holy security
which arises from the sure promise of Jesus that none who believe in Him shall
ever perish, but shall be with Him where He is. Believer, let us often reflect
with joy on the doctrine of the perseverance of the saints, and honour the
faithfulness of our God by a holy confidence in Him.
GOD
IS ALWAYS PRECISED, SPECIFIC, CONSCIOUS, AND INTENTIONAL ABOUT ME HIS VERY OWN
PRICED POSSESION

the fruit of them. 22 They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not
plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people,
and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. 23 They shall not
labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the
blessed of the Lord, and their offspring with them. 24 And it shall come to
pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I
will hear.)KJV
IF GOD IS SO CONTIOUS, SPECIFIC, PRECISED, AND
INTENTIONAL, I THINK THE SMARTEST THING TO DO, IS TO BE SPECIFIC, PRECISED,
CONTIOUS AND INTENTIONAL IN GIVING HIM THANKS, BECAUSE ALL THROUGH AGES PAST,
HE HAS BEEN INTENTIOUS, CONSCIOUS, SPECIFIC AND PRECISED IN BLESSING US ROUND
ABOUT. WHEN HE DELIVERED YOU FROM THAT ACCIDENT, HE WAS SPECIFIC, INTENTIONAL,
PRECISED AND CONSCIOUS IT WAS YOU HE DELIVERED, WHEN HE GAVE YOU THAT
SUPERNATURAL PROVISION, DIVINE FAVOUR AND MIRACLE, HE WAS INTENTIONAL,
CONSCIOUS, SPECIFIC AND PRECISED, IT WAS NOT A GUESS WORK. HE KNEW WHO IT WAS,
HE WAS ATTENDING TO. THAT IS WHY, WE MUST BE CONSCIOUS, SPECIFIC, PRECISED AND INTENTIONAL
IN GIVING GOD THANKS. AS A MATTER OF FACT, IN ALL OUR DEALINGS WITH GOD, WE
MUST BE CONSCIOUS, SPECIFIC (I.E PAYING ATTENTION TO DETAILS), PRECISED AND
INTENTIONAL BECAUSE GOD IS A GOD OF DETAILS, HE PAYS ATTENTION TO EVERY DETAILS
OF OUR LIFE. HEB 2:6 SAYS “But there is a place where someone has testified: "What
is MAN THAT YOU ARE MINDFUL OF HIM,
the son of MAN THAT YOU CARE FOR
HIM?” NIV
AS WE ROUND UP THE YEAR AND ENTER INTO THE NEW
YEAR, LET US BE INTENTIONAL, CONSCIOUS, SPECIFIC AND PRECISED ABOUT GOD’S
FAITHFULNESS IN OUR LIVES, AND AS SUCH, GIVE HIM CONSCIOUS, SPECIFIC, PRECISED
AND INTENTIONAL THANKS.
