HAVE YOU YET ACCAPTED TO BE A FRIEND OF GOD ?

James 2:23
Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.

MEDITATION:
The Bible tells us that there are those who deny the reality of God (2 Pet. 3.4-6), but James reminds us of his divine reality and how an Old Testament believer became God’s friend:
Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.
James refers to chapter 15 of the book of Genesis, but he quotes it as having been fulfilled many years later when he « offered his son Isaac on the altar » according to the account of Genesis 22.
The sacrifice of Isaac was the work by which Abraham showed the faith he had had for a long time in the heart.
Our Redeemer God has also done the same thing as Abraham:
He gave his Son to become our true and eternal friend (see Jn 15:15).
He wants us to accept this friendship by believing in him, trusting him and doing his will.
Have you accepted this friendship?
If you have not yet accepted this friendship, do it today and now.

PRAYER:
Lord our God, Give us to believe You and to trust You as Abraham.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray.
Amen.
