God is God!

Psalm 46:10 “He says, ‘Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.'” Can God be anything but honored as the Only One with Supreme Authority?  God is God.  There is no other God.  If only the world would recognize His majestic power we would live in a much more contented world.  However, unknown by many, yet known by many–He is The Authority and Supreme Master of the Universe.  Praise God that you have a relationship with Him as your loving Father.  

Never alone

Psalm 46:7 “The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.” God again makes a promise.  He is always with us.  That promise is the best promise you or I will ever hear.  We take comfort in Him who will never fail us.  Praise God.

Fear is never necessary

Psalm 46:2 “Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,” Can you imagine anything more terrifying than the calamity expressed in this verse?  And still God says to never fear.  And why should we never fear?  Because He is taking care of us as He has promised and His promises never fail.  Stability, courage and faithful strength are all our middle names.

Always

Psalm 46:1 “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” God’s continual presence in our lives is more than essential for each one of us.  Without His every second presence we would find ourselves lost, lonely and worshipping a God who does not keep His promises–therefore, our God becomes god just like all the other religious gods.  God is a faithful, ever present, always keeping His promises God.  Each of us is blessed beyond our understanding to be loved, adopted children of our Wonderful God! 

A continual prayer

Psalm 44:26 “Rise up and help us; rescue us because of your unfailing love.” You and I have no idea what love God has for each of us.  What incomprehensible love we take for granted.  Our Psalmist uses the word—unfailing—love.  That is a great word and concept to cherish for 2026.  Can you remember that for the next 365 days?Happy New Year!
