THE ONE TRUE GOD!

-

Psalms 96:4-5

Great is the Lord! He is most worthy of praise! 

He is to be feared above all gods.

The gods of other nations are mere idols, but the Lord made the heavens!


The confusion of religion is the reference to different discription of the diety they portray, one says this, another says that, but there can only be one God.


Before Christ was revealed, we had just two divides, the Jews who worshipped the Almighty God and the Gentiles, who worshipped idols.


Today, we have different religions and then within the religions, denominations all claiming to serve the Almighty God!


What is the problem? Does the Almighty have different standards or salvation for different people? The answer should be, NO!


So, who serves the one true God, the Almighty?


Of all books written only one has the record from different authors saying the same thing, pointing to the one true God. This is the scriptures, (the Torah with the records of Christ's life and letters of His apostles). The only one that does this. Let us look at the scriptures:


Deuteronomy 19:15b

The facts of the case must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.


2 Corinthians 13:1b

 “The facts of every case must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses”.


All religions are the testimony of one man, and many of them have been twisted because the very person who was claimed to be the bearer had no record of what he/she bore neither live witnesses to whatever it is they bore.


For, truly if you searched deeply you see that many are just a copy of the true scriptures and fabrication of scholars and cunning men.


The bible which we have today is yet the complete record from different sources of the one true God, the Almighty, - the scriptures.


Above all, the message of the Heavenly Father is not just what is said or hearsay, God is real thus, when you come to Him He reveals Himself to you. That is you hear His truth and He goes further to reveal Himself to You by coming to dwell in You by His Spirit.


This only began when He revealed Himself by His Word.


John 1:1-4,12

In the beginning the Word already existed. 

The Word was with God, and the Word was God.

He existed in the beginning with God.

God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him.

The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone.

But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God.


Isaiah 44:3

For I will pour out water to quench your thirst and to irrigate your parched fields. 

And I will pour out my Spirit on your descendants, and my blessing on your children.


Ezekiel 36:26-27

And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart.

And I will put my Spirit in you so that you will follow my decrees and be careful to obey my regulations.


The revelation of the Son of God revealed the one true God to the whole world. Not just that, but He also brought about the salvation of everyone who believed and walked in obedience.


Isaiah 9:6

For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. 

The government will rest on his shoulders. 

And he will be called: 

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, 

Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.


John 3:16-17

“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.

God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.


The one true God was revealed to the whole world and of course there is no other. The power, the miracles, the word, the death, resurrection and the release of the power of the Holy Spirit were not things done in secrets but evident for all to see.


So, why will anyone walk in darkness when light has been revealed. God is real and He reveals Himself to anyone who comes to Him.


It is not just about following laws and doctrines but about a relationship.


Revelation 3:20

“Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends.


We could never have known God except Christ revealed Him:


John 1:18

No one has ever seen God. But the unique One, who is himself God, is near to the Father’s heart. He has revealed God to us.


Matthew 11:27

“My Father has entrusted everything to me. No one truly knows the Son except the Father, and no one truly knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.


So, do you know the true God or just follow a religion?


Revelation 3:20

“Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends.


Glory to God who revealed Himself to us through His Son Jesus Christ and dwells in us by His Spirit.


He calls us blessed.


Love

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
