God Remains
Joshua 1:9, “Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.”
Morning friends! We pray today has found you beginning with positivity and that you are seeing today as a gift from God. Today, we want to speak on how God has and will remain continually in our everyday lives. When we are happy, sad, distraught, excited; God is there among every moment! We can’t help but know that He is the one constant that remains steadfast in His love for us. Time and time again, throughout history and now in present day; God is remaining; never-ending. God’s people are His focus; even when we feel we have fallen away, forgotten His promises, He always remained. In John 15:4, God said He will abide in us, and that we should abide in Him. His scriptures evolve around the scope of His divine sovereignty, the facts that He has remained throughout our knowledge of man’s existence! In fact, His sovereignty has set His children (us) on a path to eternal life with Him and while on that path He promised to provide strength, help and hope here until our arrival in heaven. He is present and never changes His focus on eternal nature; His people; His faithfulness or His capability of never changing amidst this changing world. Creation may wear out, but He remains! When we abide in Him, we stay grounded in His ways, we persistently want to be enriched in His knowledge; we want to continue working toward eternal life in heaven! Jeremiah 9:24, “But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the LORD.” When we know that God is in control and has the power that fulfills His purpose, we see that His purposes are good and will comfort and strengthen us. As we go through hard times or good times, we must remember to lean on the truth that God’s knowledge and justice are way beyond our own understandings. We then must realize He meant what He said in every word that His disciples, His called prophets, leaders, wrote that came from His own voice. He has remained, and will keep remaining until His promise is fulfilled. So, the next time you feel lost, distant, alone; stop, focus, read His word, then PRAY; feel Him fill you with the truth that God remains!
