God is Great.

Prayer – Lord, You’ve rescued me and answered my prayers so many times—and I praise You for that. Most of all, I am grateful for Your salvation. You are great! I am filled with joy.

As the sun rises each morning...
choose to obey our God.
God is great...and greatly to be praised!
Please, God, rescue me! Come quickly, LORD, and help me. May those who try to kill me be humiliated and put to shame. May those who take delight in my trouble be turned back in disgrace. Let them be horrified by their shame, for they said, "Aha! We've got him now!" But may all who search for you be filled with joy and gladness in you. May those who love your salvation repeatedly shout, "God is great!" But as for me, I am poor and needy; please hurry to my aid, O God. You are my helper and my savior; O LORD, do not delay. Psalm 70:1-5

 

Meditate.

 

may all who search for you be filled with joy and gladness in you. May those who love your salvation repeatedly shout, "God is great!"

On this Sabbath day, reflect on how great God is to you…to your family, friends and neighbors. He truly is amazing, worthy of our praise and worship. God is love (1John 4:8), yet He is powerful. He has and will destroy those who reject, oppose, or blatantly disobey Him. You don’t want to be on the wrong side of God. We all have the choice to obey or not obey God. He not only desires, but requires, purity in order for anyone to approach Him. As we repent and obey we can stand before God pure. The choice is ours. Humble purity, or a selfish wickedness opposing God’s plan.

Now all glory to God, who is able to keep you from falling away and will bring you with great joy into his glorious presence without a single fault. All glory to him who alone is God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord. All glory, majesty, power, and authority are his before all time, and in the present, and beyond all time! Amen. Jude 1:24-25

Praise God from whom all blessings flow. Praise Him, all creatures hear below. Praise Him above the heavenly hosts. Praise Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

 

Verses of Salvation ~ So we must listen very carefully to the truth we have heard, or we may drift away from it. For the message God delivered through angels has always stood firm, and every violation of the law and every act of disobedience was punished. So what makes us think we can escape if we ignore this great salvation that was first announced by the Lord Jesus himself and then delivered to us by those who heard him speak? And God confirmed the message by giving signs and wonders and various miracles and gifts of the Holy Spirit whenever he chose. Hebrews 2:1-4
