Who is God?

For The Moment#124

Who is God?

When we think about God, what do we know?

We know his works, all the things he does and have done.

We think about his character.

We think about where he is now?

Sure, this is all fine, but who is God to me personally?

How do I know him?

Do I trust him?

Do I love him in all sincerity, or is it for what I can get?

These are questions that might challenge us all as children of God.

Our challenge for the rest of the year is to look to God and establish a deep relationship with him.

Come now and let us reason together saith the Lord. Isaiah 1 verse 18.

This is so wonderful. God the creator of all things. The One who called into existence those things that never existed. He made life where their was no life.

This same God throws out an invitation for all to see. He bids us to come and talk with him.

Amazing.

Come and we can talk.

He is a good God.

A faithful God.

The Lord is:

  • My rock
  • My fortress
  • My Deliverer
  • My God
  • My strength
  • My buckler
  • The horn of my salvation
  • My high tower

He is altogether lovely. (Psalm 18 verse 2 and Solomon 5 verse 16)

For The Moment…18. Is there anything impossible for God?

He gives power to the faint

We all have limitations. There are places we cannot go and things we cannot do without supernatural help. We have the potential to exceed our imagination, but some things are impossible to do. However, with God, everything is possible. No one is greater than God. No one is like Him. He is God, the Holy One. His power is vast. He is infinite. The Creator who rides on the wings of the wind. Who called into existence things that did not exist. The One who loves us first when we are unable to love. The One who cannot deny himself because He is Love. (Matthew 19 verse 26, Jeremiah 32 verse 17, Genesis 18 verse 13)

For The Moment…15

Without faith, it is impossible to please God.

We are certain and believe in things we can not even see. (Hebrews 11 verse 1) Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

By accepting Jesus Christ as our Saviour, we receive the gift of eternal life.

Consider and hear me, O Lord my God. Psalm 13 verse 3

Someone commented on the grace of God, saying it’s something we don’t deserve. It’s true. The God of the universe has so much love that He gave His only son to save us from sin. He wants us all to be saved and go back to Him. By accepting Jesus Christ as our Saviour, we receive the gift of eternal life. Christ died for us, the undeserving, to reconcile us with God. This is an undeserved gift. (1 Peter 3:18-22)

His mercy endures forever.

Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing.  In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 1 Thessalonians 5 verses 16 – 18

When the days grow dark with worry and stress, we ought to look to the Lord for all our needs. His words are pure, and his promises are true. As we look to him for help, it is best not to lean to our own understanding. He knows the way and will make the path clear and clean for us to walk to safety . Rejoice in the fact that he is a good and compassionate God. Give thanks to him for his mercy endures forever. -adapted from Zoom Meeting 2024 – C. Heiland.

In God we trust.

If God be for you then who can be against you?

Sometimes, when things go wrong, and those around you rise up in false witness against you, discouragement sets in, and depression drives you into distress. Remember, those who seek to discredit you will not last. Their vain, brief victories will end. When God is for you, no one can be against you. ”The Lord is king forever and ever. The Lord hast heard the desire of the humble. In the Lord, put your trust.” Psalms 10 and 11.

O our God, wilt thou not judge them? For we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee. 2 Chronicles 20 verse 12 – from Zoom Meeting – S. Martin

  • Prayer of Jehoshaphat before confronted by enemies.
  • We have no power on our own and do not know what to do, but our eyes are on the LORD, and we should not be afraid.
  • Look to the Lord; he is faithful.
  • We praise him for all that is past and trust him for that is to come
