DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:
C.S. Lewis in his biography, tells of the suffering he endured because he kept a promise he had made to a buddy during World War 1. This friend was worried about the care of his wife and small daughter if he should be killed in battle, so Lewis assured him that if that were to happen he would look after them. As the war dragged on, the man was killed. True to his word, Lewis took care of his friend’s family. Yet no matter how helpful he tried to be, the woman was ungrateful, rude, arrogant, and domineering. Through it all, Lewis kept forgiving her. He refused to let her actions become an excuse to renege on his promise.

God made promises to preserve David’s royal line and bless his kingdom if his descendants obeyed His covenant. The descendants of David would continue to rule and enjoy God’s presence, with physical and spiritual prosperity. Despite their disobedience leading to the end of their dynasty, these promises have a prophetic dimension pointing to Jesus Christ as the ultimate King who will rule in righteousness forever, as Peter referenced in his message at Pentecost.
The passage emphasises that God is faithful and His promises are unbreakable, as indicated by the phrase “the Lord has sworn in truth.” The writer of Hebrews explains that God reinforces His promises with an oath, showing the unchanging nature of His counsel. This unbreakable aspect of God’s promises should provide us with comfort and security in our journey of faith. The passage underscores the reliability and certainty of God’s word, assuring us that we can safely trust Him.

2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
