A Reminder of God's Power and Rule

A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver

He alone is God. He dwells in unapproachable light. He is "able to save forever" those who draw near to Him through Christ. He is able to "make a way" in your wilderness. He is able to present you faultless and unblameable with exceeding joy before His throne. This is who God is. Do you know Him?

He alone is able to save and destroy. He alone is the Creator and Sustainer of all things. He speaks, and things happen. The hearts of kings are in His hand and He can turn them which ever way He pleases. He is able to make all things work together for your good. He is able to make dead things live. He is able to make the blind see. He is able to make light shine out of darkness. He determines something and no one can annul it. No purpose of His can be thwarted. He is a very present help in the time of trouble. He is our refuge and strength. This is who God is. Do you know Him?

He can cause you to walk in His statutes. He can give you the desires of your heart. He can make the mountains into plains, the crooked places straight, and a sea of water as dry ground. When your hungry, He can provide manna from heaven. When you are thirsty, He can provide water from a rock. When you are stuck in miry clay, He can lift you up and set your feet upon a rock. When you are weak and weary, He can cause you to mount up with wings as eagles. This is who God is. Do you know Him?

He is a shelter in the storm. He is a covert from the wind. He is a sun in the cold and a shield in the heat. He is mighty. He is righteous. He is compassionate and gracious. His lovingkindness abounds from generation to generation. He is faithful and He has made many precious and magnificent promises. He is a consuming fire. He is a loving Father. He is light. He is love. He is the judge. And He is the One with whom we have to do. This is who God is. Do you know Him?
