Gospel Reflections #587: Who is your God?

Isaiah 9:6 “His name is chanted, "Amazing Leader, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."

What is your God like?

What image do you have of your God?

God is a God who does not overlook even one lost sheep or lamb and does not abandon even one.

The golden chain of God's power of mercy and compassion is stretched around every soul in danger.

Christ, by offering His life, has joined us to the eternal throne.

But Satan stands against Christ, resisting His work and claiming that mankind is Satan's own property because he has chosen himself as his ruler over Christ.

Through Adam's sin, we had become Satan's property, following the course of this world without knowing what was going on, but Jesus has broken the chains.

Now, it is up to us to choose who we will choose as our own ruler.

For this reason, God has shown Himself to us in many ways.

No matter how intelligent we are, no matter how good we are, we are still fools compared to God.

When we know who God is and at the same time recognize who we are, we will truly know that our dependence on God is a peace and blessing.
