Hey Everyone, I'm not really Pastor Lee today, I'm Michael Stratton, and doing the devos on his name. Yes he already knows and yes I hope you have a good day and come to the church at 6:30 which is like right now. Come. Now.

Hebrews 6

13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,
14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.
15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
16 For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife.
17 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:
18 That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:
19 Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;
20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.



This passage has a promise that is a promise we must always remember: GOD DOESN'T LIE!! Most of us know that already, but need to keep this in mind. God's advasary, Satan, tries to pose as God, and tell you to do something and won't get caught, you do it and get caught. Then Satan lies to you again saying that God has done this to you. You get mad at God for "lying to you" and never speak to Him again; and Satan is happy. I just said something you should have seen, "you won't get caught" God doesn't say this things because He is holy and that is how you can tell if this voice in your head is God or not, by the most minute things he, Satan, says.

There are other promises God says, but if you can't find them, then you can just use the same one I did.

I am glad you are on the devos, and remember, GOD DOESN'T LIE!!!

Mike, Great job on the devos man!! You definitely pulled the greatest verse out of the passaage! It is so incredible to KNOW that you KNOW that anything that God says is the TRUTH!!

It kind of makes you want to be in His word more often! I mean think about it... his word is full of His words and that means that the Bible is complete truth! It is the truth about every situation we could ever possibly face!!!

Thank you God for your completely Truthful word that I can read each day!!

I do concur. Satan will lie to you about EVERYTHING he puts a little voice in your head denying things or having you believe they are your own thoughts. This is NOT the true heart of a man. It is important that we are able to distinguish these thoughts from our heart's desire and righteous thoughts when Satan attacks us. Verse 19 makes me smile because I'm obsessed with watercraft so I think of a ship or a cutter but it says we have the hope of an ANCHOR TO THE SOUL! Jesus is our hope and anchor to our soul as well as his word. Miss Waldheim is now breathing on her own and is responsive as where a couple days ago she was in a coma from a heart attack praise God!
