God Has Established Us
God has established us as His children in His Word, in His name, in His blood, in His righteousness, in His Truth, in His covenant, and in His Spirit. He has made us steadfast and immovable in Him. Isn’t that awesome!
We are established in God. He has firmly fixed us in Himself. We don’t have to be moved or changed or altered or shaken from our position. Satan uses every means of deception and lying in his world of influence to convince us that we are not personally established and fixed in God. He points out our weaknesses and puts doubt in our minds and tells us we are not going to make it. He is a liar and the father of liars. We must remind ourselves of that all the time. He has no power except what we give him with our fear.
To be established is to be settled or fixed without wavering or doubt or weaknesses (Webster’s 1828 Dictionary). God Himself has established us. He has fixed us in a position of steadfastness. He has placed us in a firm position of unwavering faith and strength. We are strengthened in Him.
Do you see this picture? It is God Who establishes us and fixes us in our position of faith. It is not we who do it. When we finally realize this fact, believing and receiving will be so much easier.
Let’s look at a few scriptures on being established.
In Isaiah 54:14 we read that we shall be established in righteousness. Well, that is our position in God. That is our place as His children, with rights and privileges in Father’s household.
When we roll our cares and works entirely on the Lord, He will cause our thoughts to become agreeable to His will and our plans to be established and succeed (Proverbs 16:3).
It is God in Jesus Christ Who establishes us and has anointed us (2 Corinthians 1:21).
Our children shall dwell safely and their descendants shall be established before God (Psalm 102:28).
When we believe in the Lord our God, we shall be established (2 Chronicles 20:20).
Our hearts can be established and strengthened with God’s grace (Hebrews 13:9).
We shall decide and decree a thing and it shall be established for us and the light of God’s favor shall shine upon our ways (Job 22:28).
In Colossians 2:6,7 we see that we are rooted and built up in Christ Jesus and are established in the faith. We abound and overflow in the faith with thanksgiving.
Through Godly Wisdom our houses, our lives, our homes, our families are built and by understanding they are established on a sound and good foundation (Proverbs 24:3).
In Psalm 112 we read that our hearts can be established or fixed, trusting in the Lord and having confidence in Him to take care of us without fear or dread.
God is faithful to establish us, build us up, strengthen us, and set us firmly on His foundation of love which is unchangeable and perpetual (Psalm 89:2; 2 Thessalonians 3:3; James 5:7,8; 1 Thessalonians 3:12,13).
What promises we have in God’s Word about being established. Our hearts, our families, our homes, our words, we ourselves and our children are established by God. He establishes us in Himself forever.
