O Lord


God almighty, who is like You?

The title of this message, and the subhead, I have taken directly from (Psalm 89:8 NIV). I continue with this same verse, as it states; “You are mighty, O Lord, and Your faithfulness surrounds You.” Wow! What a beautiful Scripture this is! The psalmist, with all reverence, cries out to God recognizing just how awesome and powerful He is; and then proclaims there is not one who can compare to Him. Yet, with all His power and might, we understand God is surrounded by His faithfulness and mercy. Thank God, He alone is God. So, where are we? Well, we are in the palm of His big hand, which He opens constantly to observe how we are doing. As the Scripture says; His faithfulness surrounds Him so are we also surrounded with His faithfulness then. Our understanding of this reality should bring us great comfort, and it does!

Satan is defeated in our understanding of who God is, and by our unswerving faith in what His Word reveals to us. God’s Word is always relevant, and applicable to what we will ever experience in our lives. There is nothing in this world, nothing in our lives that God’s love and faithfulness can not mend. Do you worry? Are you frightened? Concerned? Are you feeling all alone? In Jesus’ name, I declare here and now, these disturbing mind states to leave you. You are a child of almighty God and He is your shield! You can believe in His love and His faithfulness to heal you.

Please listen to how (Psalm 91) encourages you and me: “He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. / I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge, my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” Nothing else need be said, God loves you and He will protect you. Selah.

Be of good faith, God loves you He will be with you in your trouble, He will deliver you. He has promised He will (Psalm 91:15.)

By His Authority

God has given His authority. God’s plan for authority has been given to His people: authority in the church (1 Peter 5:1-2) which says, “shepherd the flock of God which is among you;” authority in the home (Colossians 3:18-25,) “Wives submit to your own husbands, as is fitting in the Lord, as is fitting in the Lord;” authority in your workplace (Ephesians 6:5-9) “Bondservants, be obedient to those who are your masters…; and authority in civil government (Romans    13:1-7) “Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God….” Authority as planned by God seems awkward and unfitting in today’s societies – not that His plan is inappropriate, certainly this is not true. It is more that people have deviated from God’s plan to what seems more suited to their personal lives for whatever reasons they justify. It is it any wonder we have dysfunctional families, government and na...

Apostates Predicted

Sensual persons who cause divisions   I quote from the Book of Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, who was addressing those who were called , sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ. In verses 16 through 19, Jude warned of apostates who would come around and make themselves known. He described them as grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts , to use Jude’s own words. He went on to describe them as those who would be mouthing swelling words, flattering to gain advantage . Jude continued saying, “But you beloved, remember the words which were spoken before the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: how they told you there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. Fast-forward now to today; to our present time, the year 2012. How is this book (Jude) of very few words; the little book which precedes the last book of the Bible; Revelation relevant to our (contemporary...

God never changes who He is

The popular cry of the people here in America today is for “change.” Yet in some parts of the world there are those who use all means, including terrorism to resist it. There are some people who are determined to leave ancient traditions, and often times, corruptible governments just as they are, and have been for hundreds of thousands of years. Many of these nations do not recognize God. God is always the same; today, tomorrow, and forever. He never changes; this knowledge about Him enables us to have total reliability in Him. His character is as follows: God is omnipotent . All power is His, and nothing is beyond His control. He enforces His perfect will. He is unstoppable by any force in heaven or on earth! God is omnipresent. He is everywhere imaginable and unimaginable all at the same time! No person or place is beyond His presence. Space and time are before Him always. He determines everything for all places and all persons. God is omniscient. All that is happening to all ...
