]]> The Bible is filled with stories of people who had great faith in God and witnessed miracles and wonders in their service because of their faith. Hebrews 11 is often called the “Faith Hall of Fame,” remembering so many of these faithful people. Who can top the faith of Father Abraham or Moses who spoke to God face to face? And what about Joshua and Samuel and Daniel who stood faithful to God even in the midst of opposition and corruption of those around them? I am also impressed by the faith of Isaiah and Jeremiah and Ezekiel and many other prophets who were not afraid to preach hard messages to people with hard hearts, believing, and not doubting, that the prophecies they were given would surely come to pass no matter how far-fetched or improbable they seemed at the time. When I look back at myself after reading about these faithful witnesses, my own faith seems to pale in comparison. I often feel like a peon in God’s economy and begin to question what difference I am making for His kingdom with my meager offerings of faith and service.

Do you ever feel small or insignificant in your faith? Do you think that you can’t measure up to the level of devotion that you see in other believers? Neither you nor I can allow the devil to lie to us that we are undeserving of ALL of God’s wonderful promises and blessings. Yeshua, our High Priest, has mediated a better covenant which was established on better promises. He fulfilled Jeremiah’s prophecy in Jeremiah 31 that says,

“I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. None of them will need to teach his neighbor or his brother saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for all shall know Me, from the LEAST to the GREATEST of them. For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.” (Jeremiah 31: 33-34 & Hebrews 8:10-12)

Whether you are the least or the greatest (or somewhere in between) in your faith walk, ALL of God’s mercy is available to you. None of your sins are remembered if they are under the blood of Yeshua. The Lord God is your God, and you are His people. He is at work, even in you right now, to transform your mind and write His laws on your heart. Don’t give up! All you are doing, from the smallest deed to the greatest act of faith, is noticed and appreciated by the Lord. He has put all the resources of Heaven at your disposal to help you in your work, and He will reward you for your faithful service when you stand before Him one day.

“For all of God’s promises have been fulfilled in Christ with a resounding “Yes!” And through Christ, our “Amen” (which means “Yes”) ascends to God for his glory.” (2 Corinthians 1:20 NLT)

ALL of Yeshua’s promises for YOU are “Yes! And Amen!” Embrace His love and blessings today!
