“One Glorious Day”

Isaiah 45:21, 22
“There is no other God besides Me,
A just God and a Savior;
There is none besides Me.
Look to Me, and be saved, all you ends of the earth!
For I am God, and there is no other.” (NKJ)

There is only One, who has the right to claim the authority of being called God. And He, Yahweh, is indeed, a great and awesome God; One whose is faithful to love and the only One who always keeps His promises to those who love Him in return and keep His commands (Daniel 9:4). Because of God’s power and majesty those who live by His Name can pray with confidence and comfort because He has more than enough power (1 Chronicles 29:11-12) to change any circumstance at any time when it serves His righteous purposes and final plan. Because the Sovereign Lord our God is both merciful and forgiving, He not only has the compassion to forgive us for our rebellious acts against Him, but He also has the power to save us (Isaiah 63:2) from anything that seeks to harm or destroy us, including all of our own self-destructive behaviors which lead us straight into hell and beyond. What we have in our awesome God, the One who created all things, is the only God who can do all things—many of which are not even on our radar screen. We have a God that is so far above us and so much bigger than the entire universe that we should stand in awe of who He is. When you have the Lord God as your Savior, my friends, you should never let your hearts be troubled, because whatever this fallen and decaying world does or tries to do to you, you will not perish. You may suffer and shed many tears for a season, but at the appropriate time you will share in the Glory which is found only in Christ Jesus our Lord. With the LORD as your Leader and your Guide you are assured a safe and successful journey Home where you will be met by God Himself and welcomed by all His mighty angels and all the saints throughout the ages who have gone before you. What a glorious day that will be!

A Whisper of Hope

I Am the God who saves…there is truly none like Me. I came into this world to reconcile man with God so you could live in My Presence and not perish into the abyss. There is nothing I cannot do, nor is there anyone I cannot save. Know the Truth, dear child, and live.

Daniel 9:4
“O Lord, You are a great and awesome God! You always fulfill Your promises of unfailing love to those who love You and keep Your commands.” (NLT)

1 Chronicles 29:11-12
Yours, O LORD, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty. Everything in the heavens and on earth is Yours, O LORD, and this is Your kingdom. We adore You as the One who is over all things. Riches and honor come for You alone, for You rule over everything. Power and might are in Your hand, and it is at Your discretion that people are made great and given strength. (NLT)

“It is I, the LORD, announcing your salvation!
It is I, the LORD, who is mighty to save!” (Isaiah 63:2)
