THE SHAKING OF ALL THINGS



(For yesterdays. devotion).
For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind…Isaiah 65:17.

And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. Wherefore we, receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: ((Hebrews 12:27-28).

For thus saith the LORD of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts. The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts (Haggai 2:6-8 (KJV)

The LORD has created His new Heaven and new Earth wherein dwelleth righteousness, and justice. He thus asks us to rejoice in that which He creates because the old Heaven and earth shall pass away and replaced with the new one.


But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying. There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed. And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. 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. 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.  And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD (Isaiah 65: 18-25).

He will thus, shake all things so that all that are not formed and upheld by the word of God shall be shaken away. They shall be melted away with fervent heat. The Psalmist says in Psalm 102:26 that they shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed: In Daniel 2:44, the Kingdom of God shall crush all the Kingdoms of the world and shall stand and fill the Earth. Isaiah also prophesied in Isaiah 40, that all flesh is grass and all the glory of the flesh is the glory of the grass. The grass withers and its glory fades away, but the word of God endures forever. The Kingdom of this world thus have become the Kingdoms of our God and of His Christ, and He reigns forever. The law of God is the only governing law over all the Earth. Paul therefore admonished us that knowing that these things will be melted away, what manner of persons we ought to be in all holy conversation and godliness… We thus, look forward to the new Heaven and earth wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless ((2 Peter 3:11,13-14).

ONE LORD, ONE GOD, ONE KING

Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: ( Deuteronomy 6:4 ) And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is , Hear, O Israel; The LORD our God is one LORD :   And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment ( Mark 12: 29-30 ). And the LORD shall be king over all the Earth : in that day shall there be one LORD, and his Name one ( Zechariah 14:9 The LORD’s first commandment to His people is that He alone is the LORD, and there is none. Therefore, only to Him shall every knee bow, and all tongue confess. Blessed be His Holy Name! His ultimate plan therefore, is to consume all the gods of the earth. Their days are numbered for, as He spoke through His prophets, and His servants: He is terrible to the gods of the earth and will famish them. He will, therefore, cleanse the Earth of all unclean spirits and false prophets and establish Hi...

THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS

Behold, the days come, saith the LORD , that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth. In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS ( Jeremiah 23:5-6 (KJV) This morning, the LORD called my attention to this all-important scripture: The LORD our Righteousness. In our lives, we struggle to please God sometimes by our strength. Every look at our weakness, discourages us from holding unto the gift of righteousness the LORD has given unto us in Christ. We continue to assure ourselves that as soon as we get rid of our weakness, we will please the LORD. It is however, written that it is not of Him that willeth nor of Him that runneth, but of the LORD that showeth mercy. As much as we do not take the grace of God for granted and dwell in sin; we need to fight the good fight of fight to stand on t...
