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!!!
