Family and Loyalty
FAMILY
Psalms 68:6 says ‘God puts the solitary in family.’ I believe that is true of the Church. God takes people and puts them in a church family. I believe God created family. It is a ‘God-idea’. I believe God’s intention for family is powerful and strong. Out of family our potential can be found, our security can be established. Sadly, families can at times be a place of dysfunction and brokenness.
LOYALTY
By definition loyalty is the feeling of devotion, attachment, duty. I believe that loyalty and faithfulness are the very essence of God’s character. His heart towards us is ever loyal, His love for us is completely heartfelt, and because of that He remains ever faithful (even when we are unfaithful towards Him).
Life is short and it is important to be planted in the right soil, so that you might prosper in life and reach your full God designed potential (Psalm 92, 3 John v2)
Psalm 145 tells of how “one generation shall tell your great works to another”, but without these wonderful qualities of loyalty and faithfulness, there is every chance that one generation won’t hang around long enough to tell another generation anything of substance.
WHY GOD
Jesus Christ came from Heaven to earth to bring “life and life more abundant” (John 10:10) and in Jeremiah 29:11,
God gives expression of His heart towards humanity -
“For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
