A Daily Devotional – Personal Faith – Personal Meditation (22)



A Daily Devotional – Personal Faith – Personal Meditation

Comment: Now I know little to nothing about the ability to cross-bred fruits and vegetables. But when I looked at ‘google’ I saw the “tangelo” (tangerine and grapefruit) and the “tom-tato” (a tomato and potato) combination developed by someone in the UK. I believe it will always be more productive to purchase a tomato and a potato, or a tangerine and a grapefruit to mix a melody of appealing foods for consumption. Rather than altering the genetics of plants, that when produced and matured look unnatural and have only the ability to tease the appetite. As a test of man’s free will; God placed four types of trees in the Garden of Eden (Garden of Delight), One: Pleasant to the eyes; Two: Good for food; Three: The Tree of Life; Eternal (see Genesis 3:22) and the tree of the ‘knowledge of good and evil’; This tree if you observe the context of Genesis two and three is a combination of the other three trees in verse 9, see Genesis 3:6.

Devotional: Since the fall Adam and Eve, mankind has always sought to mix his or her human works with the work of God; this is called ‘religion’! Time and time again God has hit the ‘reset button’ so to speak. Beginning with driving man out to the Garden and currently with the crucifixion of the Son of God. God the Father rejects all good and evil attempts of man who seeks God’s favor apart from “Thus says the LORD”. 

God established faith through the nation Israel, founded in father Abraham. Abraham’s faith in God did not wavier but the children of Abraham waivered when the leaders of Judaism piled burdens of human works (fruits) on the children, works that they could not bear (Matthew 7:15-20 and 12:33-37). As a result, Jesus is confronting Abraham’s descendants (John 8:37-59) who are of the seed of Satan, notice John 8:44, and they continued in their father’s will and sought to kill their Messiah.

“He who is of God, hears God’s Words; therefore, you do not hear, because you are not of God.” John 8:47. Jesus is the way, notice: “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and LEARN of Me, for I am gentile and lowly in heart, and you will find REST for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30.
