In God's Word: Forever at Rest

June 13, 2019 - This modern world is filled with those who defy God’s Word and his will.

Those who say, God is not real, that reality is what we see before us, the world we live in.

That the Bible is nothing but a collection of fairy tales and mean nothing to the modern, enlightened man or woman.

To those, our Father in heaven says, “Turn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth! For I am God and there is no other.” (Isaiah 45:22)

God says that he is God and there is no other god in the universe. That all other so-called gods are simply man-made illusions, devil-formed deceptions to keep the world away from God and his blessing of salvation from sin.

And he issues this warning for the future, the time, when he comes in glory and sits in judgement of the unsaved of this world.

By myself I have sworn; from my mouth has gone out in righteousness a word that shall not return: “To me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear allegiance.” (Isaiah 45:23) 

Herein lies the problem; at this time when all will bow and swear to him, it is too late, the time for salvation will have passed and only judgement and death of the spirit will remain.

Only in the Lord, it shall be said of me, are righteousness and strength; to him shall come and be ashamed all who were incensed against him.” (Isaiah 45:24)

Although the time for repentance and deliverance has passed, all who come before him in judgement will then know the mistake they have made in defying his will.

All shall then understand his eternal power and might and all will be ashamed. And all will then know that all they had to do was to accept him as Lord to be saved and accepted into his kingdom in heaven.

All shall know this as they are led into the lake of fire that is hell and the second death, the death of the spirit.

And so I ask you today, whom shall you worship, to whom shall you bow down in submission?

For all must choose, life or death, one or the other, so whom shall it be for you; God and eternal life in heaven, or, Satan and eternal life in a burning hellfire, forever removed from the Lord and his grace and mercy.

I pray for you that you will sing this song as you are led into heaven, “I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my troubles.” (Psalm 34:4)

This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles.” (Psalm 34:6)

Yes, may you sing this song of joy and peace as you rest in the arms of our precious Lord, at home in his house forever.

For all who call upon him in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ will be saved.

The Lord redeems the life of his servants; none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned.” (Psalm 34:22) 

What a comfort to know that by accepting Jesus Christ as Lord that one is forever saved from the penalties of sin, never to be condemned for his past life of earthly passions and sin, but washed clean of all sin by the precious blood of Jesus Christ, our Lord.

Come today and be saved and rest forever in the house of our Lord.
