DAY 68 —
*“Established by Covenant, Tested by Faithfulness”*
> `“I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.” — 2 Samuel 7:13`
Covenant establishes us, faithfulness sustains us, and holiness keeps the light burning.
*2 Samuel 7–10:* God establishes what He initiates—David desires to build for God, yet God promises to build David; covenant precedes conquest, identity comes before expansion, and victory flows from alignment, not ambition.
*Proverbs 25–27:* Proverbs warns that honor comes through restraint, humility, and faithful counsel, while self-praise, unchecked anger, and broken boundaries expose folly; strength is proven by self-control.
*Ezekiel 45–48:* Ezekiel unveils a restored temple where God’s glory returns, boundaries are clear, worship is ordered, and the river of life flows—God dwells where holiness is honored and obedience defines space.
*Revelation 1–2:* Revelation reveals Christ walking among the lampstands, commending endurance yet confronting compromise; love lost, truth diluted, and tolerance of sin dim the light, for Jesus does not abandon His church—but He does discipline it.
Only those who guard love, walk in humility, and overcome compromise will inherit what God has promised.._“Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.” — Revelation 2:10_
Your brother in Christ,
Apostle Ashok Martin
