The blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Jesus Christ, and we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. (Galatians 3:14 KJV)
Through the cross of Christ and our vicarious life in Him, we who believe become the children of Abraham. And so, we are made heirs in Him through His righteousness. All His promises have become ours, and we have become a great people, a great kingdom, and inheritors of the great heavenly land. More so, we are granted the Spirit of faith! So go forth, you Christians, proclaiming the mercies of the Lord, thereby increasing the very kingdom of God!
Chaplain shared a devotion based on James 1:22, emphasizing the importance of being a 'doer of the word' rather than just a 'hearer'.
He warned against the danger of building one's faith on sand, likening it to a sandcastle that collapses under the waves of life's challenges. He urged the congregation to evaluate their service and surrender to Christ, rather than just following a routine of religion.
Chaplain also encouraged the congregation to pray for guidance on where they need to surrender fully to Christ. He ended the devotion by asking if they were living as Christians, obeying God's word, and if not, to seek God's help in making a change.
