Dad's Ramblings -- A Faithful People

" 'Then I will raise up for Myself a faithful priest who shall do according to what is in My heart and My mind. I will build him a sure house, and he will walk before My anointed forever. And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left in your house will come and bow down to him....' "
 
                                                   I Samuel 2:35-36a
 
I see three applications for this verse: historical, theological, and practical. Historically, God raised up Samuel to take Eli's place as a faithful priest. Theologically, Jesus was the faithful High Priest who did all that was in the Father's heart, believers are His house, and every knee shall bow before Him. Practically, I want to be faithful in my walk before Him, doing what is in God's heart and mind.
 
Today's Thought: In every generation, God will raise up a faithful people who will do His will.
 
Have a faithful day. Love you.
