The other day a good friend of mine told me he was reading a book and that in this certain book there were 4 truths that can be used and are true for everyday life. These truths can form the basis for the onslaught of lies that attack us and our minds day in and day out.
I just thought that i'd share these truths with you guys and back each one up with a bible verse and unpack them a little! I'll then add one more because it's just so applicable to me right now and I want to share it
1) God is Great.
Check out Psalm 27!
We don't have to be in control of what's going on and what will happen. God does have control of whatever was, whatever is and whatever will happen! as it says in the psalm: The Lord is the stronghold of my life, he's got control so we don't have to
2) God is Glorious
Check out Psalm 31!
God is glorious so we don't have to fear others! We as Christians are forever in his hands and belong to no one else. And God will not let us fall, so what can we fear? That psalm talks about all the hardships and attacks of the enemy yet the saving grace is that God will deliver us from all evil, so we should not fear it!
3) God is Good
Check out Psalm 84!
When we have such a good God who loves us so much, we really don't have to look elsewhere, he alone is worthy of our praise. We as christians will dwell in his house forever.. and that is a pretty awesome place to be!! He is an amazing God and he is good, he wants what's best for us. We need to fix our eyes on him and only him.
4) God is Gracious
Check out Psalm 103!
God is such a gracious God, he loves each and everyone of us and knows us from the inside out.We don't have to prove ourselves to anyone else or even to him, he loves us as we are. So much that he sent his son to die for us!
and now the personal one that i've added onto the end:
5) Jesus is Enough
Let me direct you to this site I found.. http://www.isjesusenough.com/
Essentially, Jesus is all you need, only he can rescue, only he can satisfy. Because he is so amazing and the risen lord.
Hope you guys enjoyed this one and remember these!
God is Good, God is Glorious, God is Good, God is Gracious and Jesus is Enough
God Bless everyone!
