GOD IS ALL THIS AND MORE
-author unknown-
He is the First and Last,
the Beginning and the End!
He is the keeper of Creation
and the Creator of all!
He is the Architect of the Universe
and the Manager of all times.
~~~~
He always was,
He always is,
and He always will be . . .
~~~~
Unmoved,
Unchanged,
Undefeated, and never Undone!
~~~~
He was bruised and brought healing!
He was pierced and eased pain!
He was persecuted and brought freedom!
He was dead and brought life!
~~~~
He is risen and brings power!
He reigns and brings Peace!
~~~~
The world can't understand him,
The armies can't defeat Him,
The schools can't explain Him,
and the leaders can't ignore Him.
~~~~
Herod couldn't kill Him,
The Pharisees couldn't confuse Him, and
The people couldn't hold Him!
Nero couldn't crush Him,
Hitler couldn't silence Him,
~~~~
The New Age can't replace Him, and nonbelievers
can't explain Him away!
~~~~
He is Light, Love, Longevity, and Lord.
He is Goodness, Kindness, Gentleness, and God.
He is Holy, Righteous, Mighty, Powerful, and Pure
His ways are right, His Word is eternal,
His will is unchanging, and His mind is on me!
~~~~~
He is my Redeemer, He is my Savior,
He is my Guide, and He is my Peace!
He is my Joy, He is my Comfort, He is my Lord,
He rules my life!
~~~~
I serve Him because His bond is love, His burden
is light, and His goal for me is abundant life.
~~~~
I follow Him because He is the Wisdom of the wise,
The Power of the powerful, The Ancient of Days,
the Ruler of rulers, the Leader of leaders,
the Overseer of the overcomers,
and the Sovereign Lord of all that was,
and is and is to come.
And if that seems impressive to you, try this for size:
His goal is a relationship with me!
He will NEVER leave me, NEVER forsake me,
NEVER mislead me, NEVER forget me, NEVER overlook me,
and NEVER cancel my appointment in His appointment book!
When I fall, He lifts me up! When I fail, He forgives
When I am weak, He is strong! When I am lost, He is the way! When I am afraid, He is my courage!
~~~~
When I stumble, He steadies me!
When I am hurt, He heals me!
When I am broken, He mends me! When I am blind, He leads me!
When I am hungry, He feeds me! When I face trials, He is with me! When I face persecution, He shields me!
When I face loss, He provides for me!
When I face Death, He carries me Home!
He is everything for
everybody, everywhere, every time, and every way.
He is God! He is Faithful. I am His, and He is mine!
So, if you're wondering why I feel so secure,
understand this . . .
He said it and that settles it.
God is in control, I am on His side,
and that means all is well with my soul.
Everyday is a blessing
for
GOD IS!!!!!

Psa 96 (TLB)
Sing a new song to the Lord!
Sing it everywhere around the world!
{2} Sing out his praises! Bless his name.
Each day tell someone that he saves.
{3} Publish his glorious acts throughout the earth.
Tell everyone about the amazing things he does.
{4} For the Lord is great beyond description
and greatly to be praised.
Worship only him among the gods!
{5} For the gods of other nations are merely idols(Heb=nothing),
but our God made the heavens!
{6} Honor and majesty surround him;
strength and beauty are in his Temple.
{7} O nations of the world,
confess that God alone is glorious and strong.
{8} Give him the glory he deserves!
Bring your offering and come to worship him.
{9} Worship the Lord with the beauty of holy lives.
Let the earth tremble before him.
{10} Tell the nations that Jehovah reigns!
He rules the world. His power can never be overthrown.
He will judge all nations fairly.
{11} Let the heavens be glad, the earth rejoice;
let the vastness of the roaring seas demonstrate his glory.
{12} Praise him for the growing fields,
for they display his greatness.
Let the trees of the forest rustle with praise.
{13} For the Lord is coming to judge the earth;
he will judge the nations fairly and with truth!
Psa 93:1-2 (KJV)
The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty;
the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself:
the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.
{2} Thy throne is established of old:
thou art from everlasting.
Psa 104:1-5 (KJV)
Bless the LORD, O my soul.
O LORD my God, thou art very great;
thou art clothed with honour and majesty.
{2} Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment:
who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:
{3} Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters:
who maketh the clouds his chariot:
who walketh upon the wings of the wind:
{4} Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:
{5} Who laid the foundations of the earth,
that it should not be removed for ever.
Psa 63 (KJV)
A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.
O God, thou art my God;
early will I seek thee:
my soul thirsteth for thee,
my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
{2} To see thy power and thy glory,
so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
{3} Because thy lovingkindness is better than life,
my lips shall praise thee.
{4} Thus will I bless thee while I live:
I will lift up my hands in thy name.
{5} My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness;
and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:
{6} When I remember thee upon my bed,
and meditate on thee in the night watches.
{7} Because thou hast been my help,
therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
{8} My soul followeth hard after thee:
thy right hand upholdeth me.
{9} But those that seek my soul, to destroy it,
shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
{10} They shall fall by the sword:
they shall be a portion for foxes.
{11} But the king shall rejoice in God;
every one that sweareth by him shall glory:
but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
Heb 1:1-3 (KJV)
God, who at sundry times and in divers manners
spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
{2} Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son,
whom he hath appointed heir of all things,
by whom also he made the worlds;
{3} Who being the brightness of his glory,
and the express image of his person,
and upholding all things by the word of his power,
when he had by himself purged our sins,
sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
John 14:8-11 (KJV)
Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
{9} Jesus saith unto him,
Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip?
he that hath seen me hath seen the Father;
and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?
{10} Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me?
the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself:
but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
{11} Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me:
or else believe me for the very works' sake.
John 1:14 (KJV)
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us,
and we beheld his glory,
the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,
full of grace and truth.
