Our God is awesome in power. He is our strength, and our light. He is with us and in us, holy, almighty, trustworthy, our rest, our help, and love personified. There is no one like Him, He is the only true God, and He rejoices over us with singing (Zephaniah 3:17; Psalm 31:3, 56:3; Joshua 1:9; Jeremiah 32:17; Isaiah 41:13; Hebrews 3:4; Philippians 4:4, 4:13).
God made each star and knows them all by name, and because of His great power none of them are missing. He also numbers each hair growing on and falling from our head. His salvation is eternal, He redeems us, and He esteems those of us who are humble and contrite in spirit and who honor His Word. He arranges the nations of the world, and already make plans for us as He formed us in our mother’s womb (Isaiah 40:26, 44:24, 51:6, 66:2; Genesis 1:16; Psalm 147:4; Deuteronomy 4:19; Luke 12:17).
All of these verses, and so many more, inspire me to worship our worthy Lord and to dedicate my life and my love to His service. I feel so sad for those who reject His great salvation (Hebrews 2:3-4), and who cling to humanism or satanic ideology instead. They miss out on a personal relationship with our great and mighty God of compassion and joy all of their life on earth, and even into eternity (John 3:18).
The Trinity of God lives within us, and He will never ever leave or forsake us (Hebrews 13:5). He hears our prayers while they are still forming in our heart, and He often provides our needs before we even audibly ask for them. He loved us even while we were still sinners (Romans 5:8; 1 John 4:10, 19). He holds us in His right hand, and He drives away our fears and fills us with His peace (Isaiah 41:13).
God draws us to Himself with loving kindness, and nothing can ever separate us from His love (Romans 8:35-39). We are crucified with Jesus, but we still live on this earth; yet it is actually God who is living in and through us (Galatians 2:20). He adopts us into His family and calls us His own children (1 John 3:1).
Prayer:
Father God, thank You for filling us with Yourself, and giving us the love of Jesus to sustain us and to share with others (Ephesians 3:16-19). You are the God of gods and the Lord of lords, a great God, our Mighty One who does not compromise Your truth even with mighty men or those who offer You bribes (Deuteronomy 10:17).
You keep Your covenants with us, and You show mercy to those who trust in You and walk in Your ways (2 Chronicles 6:14). Thank You for the wondrous things that You do for us each and every day (Psalm 86:10). Our soul blesses You as our great and Mighty One, who is clothed with majesty and honor (Psalm 104:1). We look forward to the fulfillment of our hope in You when You appear as Jesus, our Savior, at the end of this age (Titus 2:13).
Thought for the Day:
In a world filled with hate, cruelty, death, sorrow and distress, we trust in God alone, and He fills us with an irresistible hope in His faithfulness and glory; He is worthy of all of our honor and praise, and we rejoice in Him all the days of our life.
