Higher Plans

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are my ways your ways," declares the Lord. Isaiah 55:8

His thoughts, His ways and His plans are higher than ours. His desire is for us to walk in trust as obedient servants. Walking as an obedient servant is a success that far outweighs the positions of authority and power that the world would have us to seek. Any plan that I could come up with on my own can not compare to what He has planned for me, I don't know what is around each corner, all I know is that as He leads I follow one step at a time. He is doing a new thing and there are times when it seems He is calling me to do things that are completely out of my realm. In  reflecting on that, it is clear, that is exactly what He is doing. It calls me to a higher level of trust in Him. I know that it is impossible for God to fail, His plans will come to His full purpose and walking in fellowship with Him towards that purpose is a garanteed place of success, for with Him we can do all the things that he has called us and chosen us to do....

There is No Other

As I read through the Isaiah passages last week, the phrase, "There is no other"  rang out loud and clear throughout several chapters.

"I, even I, am the Lord, and apart from me there is no savior."  43:11

"I , even I, am he who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and remembers your sins no more." 43:25

"I am the first and the last; apart from me there is no God." 44:6b

"this is what the Lord says-your Redeemer who formed you in the womb; I am the Lord, who made all things, who alone strectched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself..."44:24

"...'surely God is with you, and there is no other; there is no other god.'" 45:14b

"I am the Lord, there is no other..." 45:18

"turn to me and be saved all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other..."45:22

"Remember the former things of long ago; I am God and there is no other; I am God and there is none like me." 46:9

"Then you will know that I am the Lord; those who hope in me will not be disappointed." 49:23

It is clear through these passages that GOD wants us to KNOW him. Through these passages He spells  out exactly who He is, then promises to those who KNOW and put their HOPE in Him that they will not be disappointed. He shows us such an incredible picture of what was and is to come in Christ. Make no mistake, a day will certainly come when all will KNOW and remember that it was He who foretold it.

O' My God and My King my heart is filled with peace and pure joy in KNOWING that you are God and there is no other...there is no disappointment in KNOWING you....

The Excellency of God's Word

Hello All!!! It was a very relaxing but invigorating break away from the fast paced world of electronics. Thank you for your patience.

I do hope you were able to fit in reading Psalm 119. I am completely in love with that Psalm. How about you? Did you notice that the Hebrew letters seperate the passages? did you know that it is the longest chapter in the Bible? For me the words are so perfectly in line with my own thoughts and feelings regarding God's word and the things I feel in my own heart.

How sweet are your words to my taste, sweet as honey to my mouth...

Accept, O Lord, the willing praise of my mouth and teach me your laws....

Direct my footsteps according to your word...

Make your face shine upon your servant and teach me your decrees...

I long for your salvation, O Lord, and your law is my Delight....

If you ever lack words to speak to God, go to Psalm 119...

Lord, I delight in your word...it lifts me up to heavenly places. May it elevate those who seek you into new heights of understanding.. In your Name Jesus I as, believe and receive...
