Ephesians 1:19
King James Version
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power
to us-ward who believe,
according to the working of his mighty power,
What does GOD do?
What is He capable of?
What are His purposes?
In consonance with the title of this blog, "The GOD things", we found three particular things:
A "light" thing:
Isaiah 49:6-7
King James Version
6 And he said,
It is a light thing
that thou shouldest be my servant
to raise up the tribes of Jacob,
and to restore the preserved of Israel:
I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles,
that thou mayest be my salvation
unto the end of the earth.
7 Thus saith the Lord,
the Redeemer of Israel,
and his Holy One,
to him whom man despiseth,
to him whom the nation abhorreth,
to a servant of rulers,
Kings shall see and arise,
princes also shall worship,
because of the Lord that is faithful,
and the Holy One of Israel,
and he shall choose thee.
A "fearful" thing:
Hebrews 10:30-31
King James Version
30 For we know him that hath said,
Vengeance belongeth unto me,
I will recompense,
saith the Lord.
And again,
The Lord shall judge his people.
31 It is a fearful thing
to fall into the hands of the living God.
A "righteous" thing:
2 Thessalonians 1:6-8
King James Version
6 Seeing it is a righteous thing with God
to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;
7 And to you who are troubled rest with us,
when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven
with his mighty angels,
8 In flaming fire
taking vengeance on them that know not God,
and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
We need to meditate upon these verses.
That we may know GOD's love, and wrath.
The "light" thing refers to His sending of JESUS for salvation.
The "fearful" thing refers to GOD's vengeance for judgment.
The "righteous" thing refers to "compensation" for believers.
We pray that you be born again.
A true believe, and seeker, of GOD's TRUTH.
Only a born again can rightfully understand GOD's WORD.
For we have the HOLY SPIRIT to teach us EVERY word in Scripture.
That we may remember, and understand, the LORD's commands.
It is a WONDERFUL thing to be BORN AGAIN!
All these things I couldn't have known, if not for SPIRIT.
All these things I couldn't have organized, if not for His guidance.
All these I would have missed, if not for GOD's GRACE.
Such is GOD's love, for believers.
And those who comb His Scripture daily.
With the objective we get GOD's WORD right.
In these end times, we have no help, but SPIRIT.
