– Scripture:
He is God
Get the blind and deaf out here and ready the blind (though there’s nothing wrong with their eyes) and the deaf (though there’s nothing wrong with their ears). Then get the other nations out here and ready. Let’s see what they have to say about this, how they account for what’s happened. Let them present their expert witnesses and make their case; let them try to convince us what they say is true. “But you are my witnesses.” God’s Decree. “You’re my hand-picked servant So that you’ll come to know and trust me, understand both that I am and who I am. Previous to me there was no such thing as a god, nor will there be after me. I, yes I, am God. I’m the only Savior there is. I spoke, I saved, I told you what existed long before these upstart gods appeared on the scene. And you know it, you’re my witnesses, you’re the evidence.” God’s Decree. “Yes, I am God. I’ve always been God and I always will be God. No one can take anything from me. I make; who can unmake it?”
Isaiah 43:8–13 MSG
– Reflection:
With Christmas passing us yesterday and the New Year approaching fast, I wanted to leave you guys with this message. The Father said in Isaiah that he is GOD, not something made up or anybody among us, but he is God. Moving into the New Year it would be a very important task for the day to remember that and give honor where it is due. He has awakened us each day and kept us sane and in good health. Notice I didn’t say anything about money or things. This is because, with the first three that he gives us freely, we can go out into the world as we are supposed to and work for those things. The first three GOD provides just like the holy trinity these are the three gifts that allow us to make decisions and feed our families.
Where do we go from here?
Allow GOD to take his place in your heart, and begin being the head of your life. When you have done that, you will notice a shift in your life that wasn’t there before you did those two things. Appreciate what you have, and honor those who are close to you in life and are doing it with you. Just be thankful for being able to be YOU.
Our Prayer for Today
Father, Thank you that we can wake up each morning to serve you again with the strength you have given us. We honor you today and every day moving forward with the gifts you have given us. We will continue to use them to do the work you have placed on our hearts. Amen.
