      God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob

      God is coming to introduce or re-introduce Himself to you. Yes, He did that before, but there is the need for Him to do it again as the time for the fulfillment of His promise to you has come. He already knows that your faith is getting weak. He knows that you urgently need a fresh revelation, a fresh encounter and encouragement for the final push into your Promised Land. For Him, He does not need any encouragement, help or push to perform His will, promises and purposes. He is the sovereign universal authority. He sees and manipulates the end from the beginning. In fact, He Himself is the alpha and the omega; the beginning and the end, the first and the last. But for us, we will always need a fresh revelation to carry on, especially, when the vision seems herculean, near-impossible or will take a long time to come to pass.

      When God met Moses in the wilderness, through the burning bush, to commission him for the operation ‘Come out of Egypt’, He had to introduce Himself to Moses. Yes, that might not be the first time Moses was hearing about the God of Israel; the God of his ancestors (remember the Jews are very good at transferring their history to the younger generations through the oral tradition), but because of the nature and the level of this particular assignment, God came in a very spectacular, special and convincing way to put His ‘divine signature’ to that mother-of-all-assignments. The burning bush, the warning not to come close, the instruction to remove his sandals, and then the ultimate bombshell, “I am the God of your ancestors – the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.”  Wow!

      In fact, God was literally excited about the mission He was about sending Moses. Yes, Moses was going to be unenthusiastic about the whole thing, but God was excited, determined and committed  because the integrity of His name, His word, promises and sovereignty were at stake. Remember, He had told Abraham hundreds of years ago that his descendants will be strangers in a foreign land, and that they will be oppressed as slaves in that nation for four hundred years. And after that, He will come with a strong hand to bring them out with great riches. Truly and promptly, He came to bring this to pass after hundreds of years. God keeps His covenants promises. If He said it, He is eagerly watching over it to perform. He monitors the timing, the variables and the total performance of His words. His words concerning you will not fail.

      He Honors Covenants

      God honors covenants. We can forget, we might stop believing, but God will always watch over His promises to bring them to pass. Divine covenants are always trans-generational. They are not just performing on you, but will outlive you to speak for your future generations. True! I know this very well because I am a product of one; where God tells a young lady that when she gets married that her first issue will be a male child, and that he will do great things for the kingdom. And after about thirty years, even when the child is not aware of such an agreement, the covenant begins to speak and perform exactly as God said. That is my story. Everything God said about me is perfoming. I remember one of my aunties came to me few year ago and said, “Gab, everything God said about you is happening.” I was so happy to hear that. God’s words are powerful, sharp, eternal and faithful. Time, circumstances, opposition do not stop them.
