"Solemn Assembly Day #8"

Scripture Reading:
Hebrews 8:10 (HCSB)   But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord:  I will put My laws into their minds and write them on their hearts.  I will be their God, and they will be My people.

Devotional Reading:

The writer of Hebrews explained that Jesus is the mediator of a new covenant between God and His people. This covenant agreement is based on a love relationship. As our Lord and King, God has given us His commands to obey so we can experience life abundantly.  But Jesus warned, “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord!’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of My Father in heaven”. We enter a saving covenant relationship with God through faith in Jesus Christ alone, not by works of our own. But our obedience to God’s will is one clear way we demonstrate that our love relationship with Him is genuine.  If you and your fellow church members have found that you have drifted away from your first love and from obedience to the Lord’s commands, God invites you to return to Him. Hear God’s invitation:  Let the wicked one abandon his way and the sinful one his thoughts; let him return to the LORD, so He may have compassion on him, and to our God, for He will freely forgive. -Isaiah 55:7

Return to Me ... and I will return to you, says the LORD of Hosts.  As I described in discussing consecration in day 2, Christ is seated on His throne with open hands waiting for the sacrifice of your life.  Pray about the life of love, obedience, and holiness you will bring to Christ. Return to Him with all your heart!

Keep the Son in your eyes,
