Habakkuk 1:12\u00a0 <\/span>Are you not from everlasting, O Lord my God, my Holy One? We shall not die. O Lord, you have ordained them as a judgment, and you, O Rock, have established them for reproof. You who are of purer eyes than to see evil and cannot look at wrong, why do you idly look at traitors and remain silent when the wicked swallows up the man more righteous than he?<\/p>\n

Psalms 90<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.<\/p>\n

Revelation 1:8<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u201cI am the Alpha and the Omega,\u201d says the Lord God, \u201cwho is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lamentations 5:19<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0But you, O LORD, reign forever; your throne endures to all generations.<\/p>\n

Isaiah 40:28<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Have you not known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable.<\/p>\n

1 Timothy 1:17<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.<\/p>\n

Hebrews 1:10-12<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0And, \u201cYou, Lord, laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning, and the heavens are the work of your hands;\u00a0\u00a0they will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment,<\/p>\n

Isaiah 57:15<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0For thus says the One who is high and lifted up, who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: \u201cI dwell in the high and holy place, and also with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly, and to revive the heart of the contrite.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Almighty, Everlasting, Holy One, Rock, Righteous, Alpha and Omega, Creator, Unsearchable, Immortal, Invisible, and Unchangeable, is our God!!!!!!!!!\u00a0 <\/span>It is hard to touch the edge of understanding of how great God is.\u00a0 <\/span>The Mighty One who reigns in eternity is the same one who dwells with those who are repentant. \u201cThe One who is high and lifted up, who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: \u201cI dwell in the high and holy place, and also with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly, and to revive the heart of the contrite.\u201d Our God reached out to His creation in love through Jesus Christ, to redeem those who come to Him in a contrite spirit.\u00a0 <\/span>It was not as though He needed to do this.\u00a0 <\/span>He is God and could have destroyed His creation and started over but He chose to send a redeemer into this world to rescue those who would respond to His offer of redemption through Jesus Christ.\u00a0 <\/span>Adam and Eve chose to defy God\u2019s warning.\u00a0 <\/span>They chose to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. I do not know how this all worked but at this point sin and our sinful nature took birth.\u00a0 <\/span>Every birth from this moment forward has a sinful nature.\u00a0 <\/span>This same sinful nature that drove Adam and Eve out of the garden of Eden is the same sinful nature that drives us to willingly continue to separate ourselves from God.\u00a0 <\/span>This sinful nature wants us and entices us to look at what this world has to offer more than the Word of God and His promises.\u00a0 <\/span>This sinful nature wants us to water down the Good News of Jesus Christ to the point where it has no effect on the way we live.\u00a0 <\/span>It wants us to water down the Good News of Jesus Christ so that the need for forgiveness, repentance, reliance, obedience, and humbly serving the King of Kings is not required. This should not be.\u00a0 <\/span>Things of this world will never fully satisfy, but will surely disappoint.\u00a0 <\/span>Things of this world will never give us lasting peace, but will surely rob us of rest for our souls.\u00a0 <\/span>Things of this world will never give us lasting hope but will fill us with confusion and fear.\u00a0 <\/span>Things of this world will not save our souls from eternal punishment and torment in hell but will fill us with a worldly wisdom that there is no punishment, torment, or hell.\u00a0 <\/span>The grace, mercy, and love of God reached out to save us from our sinful nature.\u00a0 <\/span>The Creator demonstrated this grace, mercy, and love by sending His only Son and placed our sins on Him as the only perfect, once and for all sacrifice.\u00a0 <\/span>This perfect redemption came at a very high cost and yet, Jesus Christ paid the price willing for our redemption and forgiveness of sin.\u00a0 <\/span>Our daily lives ought to be lived out in humble thankfulness and gratitude, full of worship, obedience, and reliance.\u00a0 <\/span>Be mindful of your sinful nature and what this world is offering, they both lie.\u00a0 <\/span>Turn your hearts, minds, and souls to the Almighty, Everlasting, Holy One, Rock, Righteous, Alpha and Omega, Creator, Unsearchable, Immortal, Invisible, and Unchangeable, God!!\u00a0 <\/span>In this turning to God and away from self you will find purpose, meaning, peace, and rest.\u00a0 <\/span>Eternity awaits us all.\u00a0 <\/span>To some it will be eternity Heaven and others it will be an eternity in Hell.\u00a0 <\/span>The choice is all yours and be assured that this choice has eternal consequences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
