Our awesome God formed the earth with the
power of His Words (Genesis 1). He holds
the seas in the hollow of His hand, and He measures the sky with the width of one
of His hands. He knows the number of the grains of sand on the seashore and the
dust of the earth. He even calculated the weight of the mountains and hills (Isaiah
40:12-18; Isaiah 46:5).
No one can compare to our awesome God. All the nations of the earth added together are a mere drop of water in the ocean, and they always do His bidding. He reduces rulers and cares nothing about the decisions made by judges. No one directs God, because He is in control. We are like insects compared to Him.
His throne is above the circle of the earth.
He gave us the ozone layer to protect us (Isaiah 40:22-23).
No one compares to the Lord or is His equal. He stands above the crowd. He
brings out the stars by number and calls each one by name (Isaiah
48:13); and not one of them is missing. We cannot
even see all of the galaxies, yet God knows the name of every star within them
all.
God never grows sleepy or exhausted, and His
wisdom is deeper than any human philosopher will ever figure out (Isaiah
40:25-28). When God acts, no one can reverse it (Isaiah
42:13). Once we understand all things,
all of God's judgments will be proven holy and righteous, (Isaiah
5:16, 8:13). He preserves His Saints as we devote our
life to Him.
He is our God and we trust in Him and serve
Him each day (Psalm 86:2). God knows
the end from the beginning, because He does not dwell in time. His purposes
will stand and we serve at His pleasure (Isaiah 46:10). There
is nothing that our God cannot do. When we call on Him, He will respond to us
and demonstrate to us His vast and almighty deeds (Jeremiah
33:3).
Prayer:
Father God, You are the first and the last.
You are the only God. You made everything. You even formed us in our mother's
womb according to Your perfect plan for our life. You know the number of hairs
on our head (Isaiah 44:24; Isaiah 48:12).
Apart from You there is no other God. You are the Lord and there is no other (Isaiah
45:5-6). We
thank You for your eternal salvation and for Your love and daily provision of
all of our needs.
Thought for the Day:
God already decided what would happen on the
earth from creation to eternity. - Isaiah 45:21-22
