For faith is believe with the heart and for righteousness confession is made with the mouth for salvation .For the scripture says ,”whoever believes in Him will not be put to shame .”
Roman 10:10 -11
Hallelujah !Praise be to the lord God ,the holy one.
The above words ,we believe from the heart that the one who believes in Him will not be put to shame .We find this proved through some verses of the Holy Bible.
When we read in the book of Joshua that two Israelites were sent to the city of Jericho to spy on them .They were given shelter by a woman Rahaab who was a prostitute by profession and these Israelite took shelter in her household. The verse Joshua 2: 9-11 we see that this woman Rahaab expresses faith in the word of Jehovah God with her heart and confesses with her mouth.
She began to say to these men that she was sure that Jehovah had given them this land and Jericho people were filled with fear and all the inhabitants of that land were terrified because of Israelites for they had heard that the Lord dried up the water of the Red Sea in front of Israelites when they left Egypt and they came to Sohan and defeated the two kings of the Amorites who lived in the banks of the river named Jordan and on hearing this our hearts were melted and because of you The Lord your God is the God of the sky above and the God of the earth below and because of her confession the Lord our God also granted this sister a blessed life, a married life.
She became the wife of Salmon begot Boaz by Rahaab and God linked her to the geneology of Jesus Christ. This way God erased every shame and He saved everyone including that woman’s parents, brothers and sisters.
Similarly we see the word of confession in the life of Ruth. Ruth 1:16 tells us, Ruth said,” don’t urge me to leave you or to return from following you. For where you go I will go, and where you lodge I will lodge. Your people shall be my people and your God my God .” And it was only by her faith and confession that she received her blessings , blessed marriage, children etc. from God and a dignified life.
Even in the new testament, we see a Samaritan woman who brought salvation to her village by accepting the Lord Jesus Christ. All the scriptures show us the blessing of preaching the Gospel is the blessing of receiving a life of honour and dignity from a life of shame and disgrace. He takes away our sorrows and fill us with His joy.It is written, “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.” Matthew 5:8 Therefore “seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness , and all these things will be added to you “.Mathew 6:33
Thank you merciful Abba Father, please bless us always as we need your blessings. Help us to seek your righteousness first. In the name of Lord Jesus Christ Amen .
