God is Indescribable

Ascribe to the Lord, O mighty ones, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness. (Psalm 29:1-2)

Promises of God

The Lord your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing. (Zephaniah 3:17)

 

Promise of Comfort

The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I call to the LORD, who is worthy of praise, and I am saved from my enemies. (Psalm 18:2-3)

The Lord is my rock, my fortress, my deliverer, my refuge, and my strength.  In all of this I receive comfort.  No one can give me greater comfort than the Lord.  The Lord’s arms are always open to me.  He is always ready to love me.  He is my Father.  The One who holds and knows all of my tears (Psalm 56:8).  The One who soothes my aching heart with the balm of His presence.  God is truly my comfort!  I run to Him and I am safe.

“As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you; and you will be comforted over Jerusalem.” (Isaiah 66:13)

Promise of Provision

The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. (Psalm 23:1)

God has promised His provision for our lives.  He promises this all throughout His Word.  We can count on God to provide for us.  He will provide everything we need.  I did say what we need, not what we want.  God knows what we need and He will provide it in His perfect timing.  Sometimes it’s right at the last minute, but this is just to give us a greater dependence on Him and His ability to come through.  Because of God and His willingness to be our Shepherd, we truly can live in a state of not wanting anything.  Our lives are full and complete because of God’s provision.

 “And my God will liberally supply (fill to the full) your every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19, AMP)

Promise of Guidance

For this God is our God for ever and ever; he will be our guide even to the end. (Psalm 48:14)

I love that God promises to be our guide “even to the end“.  This God is my God.  This is the God that I serve.  My God will guide me through the darkest hours of life.  He will guide me through the muck and  mire of this world.  He will set my feet upon the Rock that is higher than I.  His guidance will forever be mine as I walk the many trails this life offers me.

“Have I not commanded you?  Be strong and courageous.  Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”  (Joshua 1:9)
