All belongs to God

Psalm 119:91 “Your laws endure to this day, for all things serve you.” There is nothing on this earth that doesn’t belong to God.  God is the owner of everything.  You and I often fool ourselves into thinking our possessions are our own, but they are only gifts belonging to our Creator.  Our talents are even gifts for us to use and develop for the purpose of serving and giving glory to our Savior.  This mentality is totally foreign to those who do not have a relationship with their Heavenly Father, but for those who do have a firm relationship with God, they are understood and cherished.  We pray for such an understanding.

Faithfulness forever

Psalm 119:90 “Your faithfulness continues through all generations; you established the earth, and it endures.” How wonderful it is to know that the love, concern, peace and hope which you and I enjoy solely because of the love our Almighty God has for you and me is a gift which your children, grandchildren, greatgrandchildren and others to follow will also be able to experience and enjoy.  God’s faithfulness, sacrificial and unfailing love is true today and will be forever.

God’s Word is absolute truth

Psalm 119:89 “Your word, O Lord, is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens.” To whom else’s word or discussion or presentation or thought can we state the above verse applies?  There is no one.  Each of us, in all our knowledge, experience, technology, education or any intellect comes close to even understanding the glory of God.  We all fall short of our magnificent God.  That truth is what makes His love for us and His sending His Son to redeem us so outstanding.  What a phenomenal God we love in return.

Hope = Confident Expectation

Psalm 119:81 “My soul faints with longing for your salvation, but I have put my hope in your word.” God’s words are absolute truths.  Our confidence in His truths is with absolute certainty.  You and I are not used to those two statements.  Nothing on this earth is absolute.  Real estate prices can plunge or rise.  The same is true of all investments including with supposed maximum security assets.  Even life and health is an unknown.  Our God does not want you or me to feel insecure in regard to our relationship with Him.  He wants that relationship to be as tight as tight gets.  You and I pray for such confidence. Have a great weekend.

A much better word than unconditional

Psalm 119:76 “May your unfailing love be my comfort, according to your promise to your servant.” God is perfect.  God never fails.  God never breaks a promise.  Living with God at your side is like nothing else.  The comfort and peace He provides is found nowhere else.  And the most beautiful truth: His love is both without change and is eternal.  God’s love is unfailing.

You are uniquely you

Psalm 119:73 “Your hands made me and formed me; give me understanding to learn your commands.” This passage is one of many which credit God for creating or forming every single person which, of course, includes you and me.  God formed you.  You are not just the result of a sexual act of mother nature.  Much of the world removes this thought and distortedly disallows our God’s involvement.  That mentality discredits both God and His Bible.  That mentality exposes man’s wretched ability to follow many Old Testament families who not only sacrificed their children but did such horrible things to them that I will not write it here—look up the facts yourself and you will be horrified.
