He is the Rock, his
work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without
iniquity, just and right is he.
Deuteronomy 32:4
God is indeed the
rock; He is the only solid being in this world which we can stand firmly upon
and rest in in safety… Even though we have a solid platform that is God, it is
imperative for us to understand that we are still subject to growing pains and challenges;
the things we face in this world are resources utilized by God for our good
which is why today’s focus verse goes on to say that his work is perfect… God’s plan is without flaw and the things
which you face now will provide a base of glorification tomorrow; you may not
understand why a 3 day journey took 40 years (ask the Israelites at the time of
this writing); however; the end result was worth the path traveled at the
guidance of the Lord… The judgment which God has handed down for you will lead
to your prosperity and peace; He has not sentenced you to death, but has
devised a plan to get you back on track… All his ways are judgment because He wants to see you become the unique and blessed
individual that He designed you to be… There are thing which will not be
acceptable in Christ and these are the things which God has ruled out for you…
This is why that relationship will not work, this job won’t come through and
this door will not open; there are better things for you in store through Him
but you must come to know and believe that that God you serve is a God of truth… Understand today that this passage taken from
Deuteronomy challenges us to think of some of the ways in which you would
characterize the very essences of God even when you may feel that you are going
through a tough time or situation; He is a rock, again, something that is
solid, sound, and sturdy. His work is perfect, ideal, just right, or without
blemish. All his ways are judgments, everything about him shows that He rules
and presides over mankind. A God of truth and without iniquity, there is no
falsehoods within Him everything He speaks comes into existence and there is no
evil or wickedness allowed within Him (just ask Lucifer)! Just and right is He,
God is accurate and on-time and will deliver His saints through thick and thin!
What a God we serve. Our God is solid, ideal and without blemish, everything He
does out of love and is in our best interest (whether we understand it at the
time or not), there is no falsehoods or lies within Him, and He is always
on-time! Now that is the kind of God that I want to serve! Today we are simply
reminded that in this world of uncertainty, we can be certain of one thing… In the times of misfortune, we don’t mourn as
a people without hope… In trials in
tribulations we can hold our heads high and smile in the midst of adversity… We
are certain of the fact that God will never leave us nor forsake us, we are
comforted in knowing and reading what the psalmist David said which is “I once was you and now am old; yet I have
never seen the righteous forsaken nor his seed begging bread…” You can hold your head up because we have been
told that “those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength...” You have
an advocate that is closer than any brother, you have a friend that will always
be by your side and you have a rock that will keep your foundation from being
destroyed when you face storms… His name is above every other name, he shall be
called wonderful, counselor, the prince of peace and Lord of lords… He will
make a way out of no way; He will turn darkness into day and will be a crutch
in your times of need! God is your rock and salvation, only though Him can you
obtain the precious promises and gifts of eternity… He is love, He is mercy, He is grace and He is
AWESOME!!!
GO ALL IN FOR CHRIST!
