The Living God Alone is the Strength to Save.


Hand

We, who are dressed by the Lord Himself, call to you.  The words are spoken in your hearing.  These words are the same words all men have heard from the fall of Adam.  And they will be testified to in the Great Assembly of God’s people.  Heaven will resound with the words you now hear His people speak. 

I do not write that without a purpose.  Consider this, you who rail against God and His people.  What you now hate, in regard to the Holy Words of the Gospel of God, you will hate for eternity.  For if you cannot stand before the Holy words spoken by the lips of man, how will you suppose to stand before the source of those words? 

Rant and rail against God’s people.  Go ahead and have your day.  For there is a day coming when only those who love Him will stand.  I urge you to consider this truth.  I urge you will all hope that you will hear and consider these things with an earnest heart.  I do not wish your death.  But I tell you a truth:  If you remain rebellious before the Most High God, you will surely not inherit His blessing.

Do not suppose that heaven is a place of peace for those who reject His means of peace.  Eternity of peace belongs to those who obey the Lord through Jesus.  Speak what you will.  Your words do not change what is true.  And if you deny the words of God, wether from the mouths of man or the mouth of God, you deny yourself entrance into His Peace. 

And do not let your heart be fooled by the imagination of man.  There is indeed a God who has set this place ablaze with His testimony.  And He has set limits on all men.  The limit imposed on His people is within His hand to deliver.  And His Holy Wisdom dictates what is given to each of His people.  Yet the limit of the wicked remains within the grasp of their fingers. 

By His Grace.

The Lord has said,and it remains spoken as a reliable truth, “Without Me you can do nothing”.  What good can a man do that will bring him honor from the Lord on the day of His appearing?  Man can do nothing good without the power of the Holy Spirit from the Father and by the sacrifice of Jesus.  There is a power of accomplishment behind all good things.  And this power resides in the hand of the Lord of Life alone.

You may think you do good things without Him.  But you only receive the lie of man to think that way.  And if, after reading this, you remain confident that you are able to accomplish any good thing without the Lord, you remain locked under the seal of selfishness, rebellion, and pride. 

What I have said here is true.  And it will not be taken out of the way; neither in this life or the life to come.  God alone is good.  And nothing good will ever be accomplished without Him.  So we humble ourselves before Him and ask for wisdom, knowledge of His ways, and the power promised in the Holy Spirit.  In this way we accomplish His Holy Will among the sea of rebellious people. 

If you would testify with your lips and the actions of your body for the sake of the Lord, you must recognize that such good things are not from you or your imagination.  They are only found at the feet of He who never lies, and who is the Life, Truth, and The Way.  We bear the fruit of God’s Perfect Will as we humble ourselves before Him. 

By His Grace.
