There are times when the world goes a little fast and gets a little crazy. It also seems like it is out of control. It could make you wonder if our God really knows what is going on. Let me quote myself. God is a consciously knowing being, and this knowledge is perfect and absolute in kind and inclusiveness. God knows everything and everyone, actual and possible, from all eternity (1 Chron. 28:9; Isa. 40:13-14, 27-28; Heb. 4:13; 1 John 3:20). He knows the acts which free moral agents will perform and might have performed. He knows us completely – our needs, what we are, and what we can be. Thus, God cannot learn anything new. His knowledge will not fail. It has no limitations. As the Psalmist acknowledges: 'Even before there is a word on my tongue, behold, O Lord thou dost know it all.' (Psalm 139:4)
Who is like our God? There is none. He alone is wise, eternal, and all in all. In light of the picture that the scriptures paint for us of who and what our God is, how should we then live? Peter answers this -- In holy conduct with a heavenly outlook.
Truly, our God is an awesome God who reigns from heaven above. If God is for us, it doesn’t matter who is against us. Serving Him with you Until He comes for us, Fred |
