The Lord Reigneth

Some time just cruse through the Word of God and you will be quite surprised at what you might find. It will seem that some Scripture will pop forth and stop your graze, it is then you want to stop and take a look at what the Lord might want to say to you!  Yes, this Scripture stopped me in my tracts when I heard the Lord say: “Am I a God at Hand, or a God far off!” Sometimes the enemy of our soul tempts us to wonder if the heavens are brass, because it seems our Prayers does not get through to Him. God’s ear is never deaf, He always hears, He is working His plan for us! His Word tells us in Rom. 5 that we have access by Faith into His Grace, here we should stand! We should rejoice in the Hope of the Glory of God, and not only so, but we should Glory in tribulation! Glory has several meanings: Most important it means, Praise, Worship, and Thanksgiving which we offer to a deity, there is only one deity for the Christian, it is our God Jehovah! He is beautiful, Magnificent and Most powerful! O let the saints exult His Holy Name!  There are troublous times, but He is a Faithful God!  Acts 14 encourages us to “Confirm our soul as a Disciple and be exhorted to continue in the Faith, and that through much tribulation we will enter into the Kingdom of God!” Is our God at hand in our tribulation? Tribulation, meaning times of trouble or suffering? There is a Unique Verse of Scripture in Deut. 4:30-31 “When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the Lord thy God, and shalt be obedient unto His voice; For the Lord thy God is a Merciful God; He will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the Covenant of thy fathers which He sware unto them.”  This speaks of the Old Testament Covenant, O but now saints we are a recipient of Goods most powerful Covenant, that which is written in the Precious Blood of Jesus, our Saviour, our Redeemer, and our soon Coming King! Can anything separate us from the Love of our God? He truly is at hand, He is not a God who is far off! He has made us more than conquerors because of His Great Love and the Sacrifice of His Son Jesus! Let the saints be assured that our God is at hand, as He has said: Ezk. 20:33 “As I live, saith the Lord God, surely with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out, will I rule over you:” Loving you, Pastor
