How powerful is the Lord God to you?
What is He to you? How you know and see God determines how much you will
believe and trust in Him. God is the “I AM THAT I AM” (Exodus 3:14).
This post tells you that God is the supreme God and you should fear Him.
He has made everything beautiful and
appropriate in its time. He has also planted eternity [a sense of divine
purpose] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under
the sun can satisfy, except God]–yet man cannot find out (comprehend,
grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the
end – Ecclesiastes 3:11 (AMP).
I know that whatever God does, it shall
be forever. Nothing can be added to it, and nothing taken from it. God
does it, that men should fear before Him. That which is has already
been, and what is to be has already been; And God requires an account of
what is past – Ecclesiastes 3:14-15 (NKJV).
Scientists have tried to unravel all
that God created, to explain creation and give reasons and processes for
everything God created. However, they can only go to the level for
which God allows them; the rest they cook up stories and expect people
to believe them. Interestingly, or should I say unfortunately, some
people believe their stories.
Ecclesiastes 3:10-11 make it clear that
the labour of men is the task that God gave men to occupy themselves
with, and they can never unravel God’s plan or work from the beginning
to the end. Nothing can be added or removed from what God has done; and
nothing is new on earth, everything came from what has been
(Ecclesiastes 3:14-15). This is so that men should fear before God.
But what do you see: many people have no fear of God,
instead they fear men and the devil that manifests himself in different
forms. People take the mercies and grace of God available through
Christ (Ephesians 2:7-8) for granted. They forget that though He is love
(1 John 4:8), He also is a consuming fire (Hebrews 12:29). Read more...
