What if God promised that He would provide such an incredible, blessed, overflowing life of purpose and fulfillment, but He made all the promises conditional - so IF anyone took the terms seriously, they would definitely receive all His goodness, and IF not, they would not receive? Because that is exactly what God did. As we begin this new series, we each must ask ourselves how we are doing at humbly following His direction. Because if we do, all His best plans and promises are on the other side of The Humble Test.
