THE LIVING GOD – THE SAME

Do words take on new meanings with the passing of time?  Just in my lifetime, I hear words used with completely different contexts.  Does anything stay the #same?  I can attest that I have seen and observed many changes in people, governments, churches, countries, landscapes, and weather!  It seems to me that the worldwide internet has brought about changes in all areas of our lives.  We have become very dependent on wireless technology.  Long before all this computer connection, we had and have a connection to “the live – living God” who never fails!   I find it so comforting to have as my source the Lord who never changes!  Yes, I have a lifetime warranty written in God’s holy word – the Bible.  Do You?  “THE SAME LORD OVER ALL IS RICH UNTO ALL THAT CALL UPON HIM and whosoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”Rom.10:12,13  He actually listens to you.  ” GOD IS THE SAME, and thy years shall have no end.”  Ps. 102:27  God’s word was true in yesteryears and it is the same truth today – never changing!  “JESUS CHRIST THE SAME YESTERDAY, AND TODAY, AND FOREVER” Heb.13:8

THE LIVING GOD – IMMUTABLE

from Barbara's Bible

Have you made a New Years #Resolution?  What #change are you wanting to make in your life?  As a child I always had a new #challenge -such as jacks, marbles, yo yo,  jump rope, skates, baseball, tennis, bicycle, swimming, ballet, piano, horseback riding and then there was reading, writing, and arithmetic!  It seems just as I was getting the right tempo that it was time to switch to the next challenge in my life.  Yes, I still have the old cracked tennis racket, worn toe ballet shoes, catcher mitt & bat, ice skates; however, time has taken its tole on each.  Even the marked white Bible I carried to Sunday School barely stays together after all the years.  I looked in my annual from college and read comments which classmates wrote that they hoped I would always share God’s love with others.  While I was looking back in time (feeling my age),  God was bringing me up to date through His Word that HE is always the SAME, HE is UNCHANGING, He is IMMUTABLE   The ONE that has not deteriorated in my life is Jesus Christ, the son of the Father, and the Holy Spirit – THE LIVNG GOD.  “Wherein GOD, willingly showed unto the heirs of promise the IMMUTABILITY (permanent character of His word) that by two IMMUTABLE (unchanging) things it was impossible for God to lie, so we have strong consolation to have refuge by holding upon the hope set for us (which is in Jesus Christ) Heb.6:17-20  “JESUS CHRIST THE SAME YESTERDAY, AND TODAY, AND FOREVER.” Heb13:8  Hold on to the Lord in times like these when everything seems out of date and disposable.  “Know the love of Christ, which passes knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fulness of GOD. Eph.3:19  May you be filled this year.
