The Everlasting God

Apr25

Who has directed the Spirit of the Lord, Or as His counselor has informed Him?
With whom did He consult and who gave Him understanding? And who taught Him in the path of justice and taught Him knowledge And informed Him of the way of understanding?
Isaiah‬ ‭40:13‭-‬14‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/isa.40.13-14.NASB1995

Do you not know? Have you not heard? Has it not been declared to you from the beginning? Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth? It is He who sits above the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in. He it is who reduces rulers to nothing, Who makes the judges of the earth meaningless.
Isaiah 40:21-23 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/isa.40.21-23.NASB1995

To whom then will you liken God? Or what likeness will you compare with Him?
Isaiah 40:18 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/isa.40.18.NASB1995

“To whom then will you liken Me That I would be his equal?” says the Holy One. Lift up your eyes on high And see who has created these stars, The One who leads forth their host by number, He calls them all by name; Because of the greatness of His might and the strength of His power, Not one of them is missing.
Isaiah 40:25-26 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/isa.40.25-26.NASB1995

Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding,
Job 38:4 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/job.38.4.NASB1995

Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth Does not become weary or tired. His understanding is inscrutable.
Isaiah 40:28 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/isa.40.28.NASB1995

‭Before the mountains were born Or You gave birth to the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God.
Psalms 90:2 NASB1995‬

God’s Majestic Splendor

Apr12

The heavens are telling of the glory of God; And their expanse is declaring the work of His hands.
Psalms 19:1 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.19.1.NASB1995

‭A portion of the world on April 8, 2024 experienced a solar eclipse. What a spectacular event of the power and glory of God, the Creator of the universe.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Genesis 1:1 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/gen.1.1.NASB1995

God made the two great lights, the greater light to govern the day, and the lesser light to govern the night; He made the stars also.
Genesis 1:16 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/gen.1.16.NASB1995

What an awesome sight to see the two great lights pass each other. One event of many fascinations that have been seen since the creation of the world.

For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.
Romans 1:20 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.1.20.NASB1995

🌹O Lord, our Lord, How majestic is Your name in all the earth, Who have displayed Your splendor above the heavens!

By One Man

Mar19

As Resurrection Sunday approaches, the Scriptures can prepare our heart as we reflect on what a tremendous impact this event has on all mankind.

For since by a man came death, by a man also came the resurrection of the dead.
1 Corinthians 15:21 NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/1co.15.21.NASB1995

Sin entered the world in the Garden of Eden through the disobedience of one man. It continues to be a threat to mankind today.
‭‭
Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death.
James 1:15 NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jas.1.15.NASB1995

‭‭Sin brings about death. Eternal, forever dying death.

For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 6:23 NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.6.23.NASB1995

But God. . . !!!

Jesus came as a man to earth. Through Him, this one man, comes eternal life for all who believe.

Do you believe?

The Planted Seed

Jan30

Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. John‬ ‭12:24‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.12.24.NASB1995‭‭

Just as the grain of wheat must die to bear more fruit, so we as believers must die to bear eternal fruit. Die to MY way, MY will, MY life.

Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Galatians‬ ‭5:24‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/gal.5.24.NASB1995

The Christian has been crucified with Christ and now lives in Christ. It is HIS way, HIS will, HIS life, His passion.

He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it to life eternal. John‬ ‭12:25‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.12.25.NASB1995

‭‭Staying connected to God is necessary for Him to increase, and for us to decrease.
John‬ ‭3:30‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.3.30.NASB1995

Prayer and the Word of God are essential to a life in Christ!!
‭‭
And the one on whom seed was sown on the good soil, this is the man who hears the word and understands it; who indeed bears fruit and brings forth, some a hundredfold, some sixty, and some thirty.”
Matthew‬ ‭13:23‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

God loved you so much that He made a way for you to live forever!!!

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
John‬ ‭3:16‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.3.16.NASB1995

Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.
1 John‬ ‭4:15‭-‬16‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/1jn.4.16.NASB1995

By this we know that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit. We have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world.
1 John‬ ‭4:13‭-‬14‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/1jn.4.13.NASB1995

Be Strong & Courageous

May20

Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid or tremble at them, for the Lord your God is the one who goes with you. He will not fail you or forsake you.”
Deuteronomy 31:6 NASB

And to Him (Jesus) was given dominion, Glory and a kingdom, That all the peoples, nations and men of every language Might serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion Which will not pass away; And His kingdom is one Which will not be destroyed. But the saints of the Highest One will receive the kingdom and possess the kingdom forever, for all ages to come.’
Daniel 7:14‭, ‬18 NASB

The sovereign God has established His eternal plan, His eternal kingdom. No fear for the one who believes and trusts in Him. We can be strong and courageous when we walk boldly with God in His kingdom cause.

🌹God will not fail you nor forsake you. Do you believe that? Do you trust Him?

Joy

Aug27

You, O Lord, rule forever; Your throne is from generation to generation. Lamentations 5:19 NASB

Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You With the oil of joy above Your fellows.
Psalms 45:6‭-‬7 NASB

Are you anointed with the oil of joy?

There is much joy to be found in knowing God is eternally seated on His throne. Our God who rules in righteousness and justice and love.

On awakening this morning and checking on the hurricane hitting the Louisiana and Texas coast, I read “this could have been so much worse”. Were you praying for the people in the path of this storm? God answered prayer. It may not have been the way we wanted but it was better than expected. Did you thank Him for His mercy in this situation?

As numbers seem to be rising in Covid cases, are you turning to, relying on the One who sits upon the eternal throne? God has this. Are you abiding in His strong tower? Is He your refuge?

But You, O Lord, abide forever, And Your name to all generations.
Psalms 102:12 NASB

God is your only hope in a world seeking their own way, truth and life. Jesus is the only way, truth and life and no one comes to the throne of the Father but by Him. Can you rejoice in that? Can you enter into the Holy of holies and bow before the throne? If not it is time to bow down in surrender to God and His will. That is where real joy is found even when everything around you is falling down.

“But You are the same, And Your years will not come to an end.
Psalms 102:27 NASB

Hallelujah!

🌹The joy of the Lord is our strength.

I Commit

Aug15

Into Your hand I commit my spirit; You have ransomed me, O Lord, God of truth. — Psalm 31:5

This is one of those verses that I am sure I have read a million times but it jumped off the page today and overwhelmed me. Into Your hand, the hand of God — the Creator, Almighty, Sovereign, Perfect, Holy, Omnipotent, Righteous, Just, Eternal, Omniscient, Merciful, Loving, Truthful, Redeemer, Savior! Wow! What better guardian of my spirit could I commit?

Then the overwhelming emphasis of the word “commit”. Commit is a word not to be taken lightly. We commit to stay married for better or worse. We commit to a job to be faithful and loyal. We commit to go out to eat with a friend. But this commit is to GOD. . . This commit is essential to our spiritual walk. This commit is total surrender to the Ruler of our hearts. This commit is to give all that we have and are, to entrust, pledge ourselves to the One who ransomed us. Again, Wow! I am blown away at the gravity of this one little word.

I had to take a look at myself and ask if I have committed my spirit to the One who ransomed me, Jesus Christ. Have I entrusted my spirit to the God of truth? I had to step back and evaluate my walk. I want to be able to truly say, “Into Your hand I commit my spirit” to the God of all truth so He can do a good work in me for His glory.

Thank You Lord Jesus for ransoming me, for paying the price on Calvary. I trust You and so I commit my spirit into Your hand. May You be glorified through me in the fulfillment of Your perfect plan. To You Lord God be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

Have you truly committed your spirit to the Lord? If not, take this time now to do so. Evaluate your level of commitment. It really is all or nothing.

Continually seeking Him,

Sharon
