As it is Written, So Shall it Be

Sis. Shellie Drayton.

Has anyone ever got a summons to sit on the jury? There’s instructions written on the summons informing you what you are to do. No one can deviate from it. It is written, and so shall it be.

Psalm 102:18; This shall be written for the generation to come, and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.

What people? The ones created to praise the LORD.

Why? Because it’s already written in His word what is going to take place. All we have to do is follow the instructions. Like a jury summons, follow the instructions. God’s word has already been written. His word is still telling us today from generations past, when God wrote His laws with His finger, this is your instructions to obey. If we keep God’s word, God will keep us.

The children of Israel were rebellious at times, even as people are today. We will take heed to God’s word for awhile, then go astray. But God always brought them back. God instructed Moses to tell the children of Israel to follow His laws and His word, and God still wants His children to follow His word.

God’s word is established and written in Heaven, and He will not be change it for anyone. Psalms 40:7; Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book, it is written of me.

The Word of God was written by the hand of God, and it will not change. Jesus said, he that hungers and thirsts after righteousness shall be filled. If we hunger for Gods word, He will fill us with His word, because His covenant is with us today also.

Luke 4:8; And Jesus answered and said unto him, get thee behind me, Satan, for it is written, thou shall worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shall you serve.

We need to follow the Lord’s example and quote the Word of God to the devil, and he will flee. Belshazzar used the gold vessels taken from the temple for his feast, then he seen the hand appear and write on the wall. Wouldn’t it be something if God chose to do that again!

Luke 18:31; Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man, shall be accomplished.

A lot of Gods word has come to pass, and it’s still coming to pass.

Things written in the prophets, scriptures written in ancient times.

1 Corinthians 2:9, But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither has it entered the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love him.

Jesus said, I go to prepare a place for you, and I will come again and receive you unto myself. This is written, and so shall it be, Jesus is coming, and if we are obedient to the Word of God, we will be in that number. If our name is written in the Lamb’s book of Life.

God has given us a road map to follow, from earth to heaven, no deviating from it, no detours. We can’t add to it or take away from it. God’s word is true, established, and forever settled.
