The True God!!
“But the LORD is the true God; He is the living God, the eternal King. When he is angry, the earth trembles; the nations cannot endure his wrath.” Jeremiah 10:10
God made it very clear in this verse, who the one true God is and who the false gods are who don’t have life or power and who aren’t eternal…
One morning I woke up early to go to the hospital, only to find it raining and for me this was not a good thing because the streets would be all muddy and when I arrived at the hospital I would have to wait outside until it opened so that I could get a number and wait in line for my turn to see the doctor. It all seemed so difficult!! So there I was thinking about not going at all, even though I knew that I needed it… and I was starting to feel guilty…
I asked God “what should I do?” and opened my bible to see if He would speak to me through His word. As I opened it this verse caught my eye ‘But the LORD is the true God; He is the living God, the eternal King’ as I read it I felt a question rise up inside my heart “am I with the True God?” immediately it was clear to me: “ Yes!!” So, what could be so difficult? Why don’t you believe that everything is going to be ok because God is with you? Even though everything seems so difficult…” I realized something right then: it’s not the same walking down the street or living through whatever situation as it is knowing that the true God is with you! becuase we go through most days without realizing it and that’s when the difficulties get the better of us.
But you need to believe that the true God can make the doors open before you and every difficulty disappear! He is the living God and can act in power, today just as much as He could yesterday because He is the Eternal God!! He’s challenged me to now confront my problems and difficulties with this attitude…
That same morning I left the house walking tall as a giant, the ‘doors opened up before me’ and everything went well. When I arrived back home it was heavy on my heart ‘it’s not the same walking through life with the one true God as it is walking without Him!’ and being conscious of this changes our vision. It encourages us because we know that God can solve our problems, everything that seems impossible for us. And even more than that, God wants to do it! So my question today is: Are you with the one true God?!
