The Revelation That Will Change Your Life


 

Today is Valentine's day and though it is different this year from any other year,there are still many who love to celebrate this day as couples while single people prefer to keep silent.

I want to reveal to you something that will change the way you think as a single Christian or even as a married person.

If you are a believer in Jesus you are never single. In fact all christians are married even the single and divorced.

God has declared in the bible many times that " I am married to Israel".

Israel for the new covenant believers is the church and the body of Christ. 

In fact the name of the first and the second covenant refers to marriage covenant.God has many times declared that his people broke his covenant through many prophets  and therefore Jesus was sent to eadtablish a new covenant based on better promises.

In the first covenant the blood of animals was required to seal the covenant. In the second covenant Jesus sealed the covenant with his own blood and the sacrifice was made only once and forever.

When you believe in Jesus and enter into this relationship with him, he will become your partner.Like any other relationship it requires time and energy to get to know each other and stay connected.

There is not such a thing as many christians misunderstood that if you leave him or want to end the relationship that he will stay.

When David instructed Solomon before his reign on Israel he said clearly to him: If you forsake him he will forsake you.

All these worship songs about how God will never leave you no matter what and he will always chase you are not biblical. 

Take a look around you and you will see the people who don't want God or Jesus , God doesn't chase them or force them to be with him.

Jesus said: I am standing at the door and knocking ,if you open I will enter.

This relationship is conditional. God removes his presence and brings it back according to people's actions.

The glory in the first covenant represented his presence and we read throughout the bible that the glory departed from them or the glory returned based on their actions.

In this covenant of Jesus we have the person of the Holy Spirit who lives within us and those who know him well know when he is activated and when he is not.He is gentle and can be deactivated by one's words and actions.

For christians love is celebrated every day not once a year because we know that by faith, Jesus is our bridegroom and we are  his eternal bride.
