GOD ALMIGHTY, NO OTHER

-

Deuteronomy 4:34-35,38-39

Has any other god dared to take a nation for himself out of another nation by means of trials, miraculous signs, wonders, war, a strong hand, a powerful arm, and terrifying acts? Yet that is what the Lord your God did for you in Egypt, right before your eyes.

“He showed you these things so you would know that the lord is God and there is no other.

He drove out nations far greater than you, so he could bring you in and give you their land as your special possession, as it is today.

“So remember this and keep it firmly in mind: The Lord is God both in heaven and on earth, and there is no other.


What a testimony, Moses reminded the people of God's mighty power and authority. The wonderful things God had done for them that no one could compete with. Taking a people out of captivity with trials and mighty works. Displacing nations bigger than them so that they could inherit the land.


They children of Israel ought to perpetually remain faithful and glorify God to the whole world.


Moses continued:


Deuteronomy 4:40

If you obey all the decrees and commands I am giving you today, all will be well with you and your children. I am giving you these instructions so you will enjoy a long life in the land the lord your God is giving you for all time.”


They had all laid down for them, they were only required to be obedient, faithfulness to God was key for them to enjoy all the good promises.


Did they?


As believers we have received an even greater manifestation of God's power.


John 3:16

“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.


He gave a sacrifice to set all men free from the bondage of the enemy.


2 Corinthians 5:21

For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.


He who ought to judge us for our sins now became the sacrifice for our sin!


God made us citizens of heaven by the great sacrifice, displacing the enemies' authority over the life of man.


He not only set us free He lifted us up. We sit in heavenly places with Christ Jesus. Glory to God.


Philippians 3:20-21

But we are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives. And we are eagerly waiting for him to return as our Savior.

He will take our weak mortal bodies and change them into glorious bodies like his own, using the same power with which he will bring everything under his control.


Ephesians 2:6

For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus.


This great miracle and work is far greater than anything that we can ever desire in our lifetime here on earth.


So what is it you desire now that the Lord cannot do for you when He has already done the ultimate?


Romans 8:32

Since he did not spare even his own Son but gave him up for us all, won’t he also give us everything else?


So we must trust Him and Him alone for actually there is no other.


No one can do what God has done for us and no one can take His place.


Most times the immediate challenges make us forget the greater things the Lord has done for us. We should not.


That victory you see is just a glimpse of the real victory the Lord gave you in the hidden places.


If only we know what happens behind the scene. The battle God's warriors fight on our behalf, we will keep giving God praise.


Let us be faithful knowing that there is nothing confronting us that the Lord cannot take care of. He has already done the greatest things for us.


No other, but the Lord God Almighty revealed in Christ Jesus.


We win.


PRAYER

You are God alone, the Almighty. Thank You Lord for keeping me in faith. I trust You for all things and I remain faithful. I do not have to worry for Father You are more than able, I am safe in Your hands.  Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


He calls us blessed.


Love

@the watcher.

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
