We have heard time and time again and we know it in the depths of our hearts, that the Bible is the living word of God. The Bible is our guide to the Living God, our God, who is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.
In this present time of uncertainty as we face a pandemic that has touched the world and face the injustice for our Black brothers and sisters, there is so much misinformation that causes fear, doubt, and disbelief in truths that we all face. It is clear to me that we are no different, then the people in the book of Isaiah and our present time isn’t anything new to our God. We believe in the Lord, but lack the hope in the truth. Our faith teeters from the overwhelming attacks on our beliefs that get twisted by the enemy. Like this pandemic is real and shedding light that Black Lives Matter. We can be certain that no matter how this world changes around us, we can trust God is consistent. For he is the maker of heaven and earth. Isaiah 40:26-31; verse 26 tells us to look up, so that we can be reminded that if he knows the stars by name, imagine what he knows about you and me, his beloved. When we have doubts, are troubled, feel alone or fall short of His Truth remember our God knows. Thank God for always staying the same and that you can trust He will always be there for you and me, no matter what. Ask Him to help you hold on to His Truth when life looks uncertain. We have been blessed with a God whose word is alive and active. Verse 28 says, “ Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth. He never grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding.” We are assured that even in our weakest moments, when we are weary and just want to crawl under a blanket, the Lord is strong and big enough to carry us through. This is our reminder that even when we stumble badly the Lord is good to those who believe. He restores us and gives us strength to carry on. All we need to do is ask.
Pray even when our faith is as small as a mustard seed. Give grace because it’s by His grace that we are saved. Never lose hope so that we can rejoice in the glory of God. Thank Him for being the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.
