God Is Preparing Your Mansion ~
Introduction ~ “Abundant Life Now” previously provided
a list of Biblical of examples of fearing / reverencing God (217 posts). In
this current series we look at Biblical accounts that demonstrate that we can
fully trust God. Initially we posted seven general reasons for trusting God. We
are currently looking at passages from all 66 books of Scripture which
demonstrate a reason for trusting our Creator.
Scripture ~ “Blessed be the God and Father of
our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us
again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away,
reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith
for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
“In this you
greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been
grieved by various trials, that the genuineness of your faith, being much more
precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to
praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ, whom having not
seen you love. Though now you do not see
Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory,
receiving the end of your faith — the salvation of your souls.
“Of this
salvation the prophets have inquired and searched carefully, who prophesied of
the grace that would come to you, searching what, or what manner of time, the
Spirit of Christ who was in them was indicating when He testified beforehand
the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow. To them it was revealed that, not to
themselves, but to us they were ministering the things which now have been
reported to you through those who have preached the gospel to you by the Holy
Spirit sent from heaven — things which angels desire to look into” (1 Peter
1:3-12).
