Amen To Grace!

2 Corinthians 1:20
"For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us."


They say picture is worth a thousand words. I wonder if that's why every Hebrew letter, {there are 22 of them} is a "picture" of something. As you probably already know, it reads from right to left, like Chinese.
Below is the word in Hebrew for amen:
[אמן]-
[א] Aleph--Ox/sacrifice
[מ] Mem--water flowing/spirit
[ן]  Nun--fish/believer

The word pictures tell us a story and give us a window on God's perspective which we would never see it in any definition.

There are three parts that make up the word, Amen: Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross, the Holy Spirit and the believer.  It isn't Amen without these three elements!

"The power of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross + the help of the Holy Spirit + the Believer = AMEN!!!

Now, add the letter hei- [ה], which means "grace," at the end (the far left) and it becomes this word:
 [אמונה]
êmunah-Faith!


When you say "amen" to Grace, it becomes "FAITH!!!"

...and Who is Grace?
JESUS!

AMEN TO GRACE!!!!!
