God's Word Is Simple Because God Is Simple

Are you simple? One of the wonderful things about the Lord is that He is simple, yet He is the Almighty God. Life may be cruel to you but not God. This post aims at encouraging you to learn from God and to be likewise.

But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ – 2 Corinthians 11:3 (NKJV).

Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls – Matthew 11:29 (NKJV).

The world makes things look difficult and hard but that was not how God made it. The word of the Lord shows the true picture of His original plan. And when Jesus Christ came on earth, His life also manifested it - a life of peace that is plain, simple and heart to heart. There was nothing artificial, assuming, complicated, complex or hard to understand about His life. He was there for all and so is His word.

Truly, God is the Almighty, the creator of the whole universe, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Consuming fire, the Lord of host, Mighty warrior, the I AM, King of kings, Lord of lord, etc., but He is also the good Shepherd, the Lamb of God, our Father, the Comforter, our Helper, our Redeemer, the great Physician, the only wise God.

I see a God who has it all (power and riches and wisdom, and strength and honor and glory and blessing), yet will sit in the field with His sheep all around Him, enjoying His loving touch; a God with whom all things are possible and yet lowly in heart. That is power: having it all but not being managed or ruled by them. Read more...
