"Our God"

Our God...well that about sums it. He is OUR GOD!

Why is it so hard for us to believe sometimes that when God, yes....God...is for us,NO ONEcan be against us?

There has to be a catch though, and the catch is...God actually has to be FORus. This line will not work for the wishy washy, the lukewarm, the unfaithful and the wavering.

When we lay claim to this verse, we must truly believe that when God ARISES, His enemies WILL BEscattered.

Our proof? well, why do you need proof? I will give it to you anyway. Our proof is in the lives of the faithful.

Hebrews 11 lists an entire army of faith. These men and women, boy they knew faith, but their faith lay in the confidence that God was FORthem.

In the face of adversity, trouble, pain, suffering...well it is quite easy to complain and mutter against God. It seems so simple to just say "Forget this, there is no hope", doesn't it?

It is easier...who ever likes to wait? We do not like to wait for God's time.

After all, God... if only you knew...God you do not understand what I am going through...God...you cannot possibly bear my pain...I am hurt, my heart is being ripped out of my chest...God...You do not get it...I am in misery...Maroon 5 gets it...

but you God? No you don't understand or feel my pain...

Boy...sounds terrible doesn't it...Yet we do this all the time.

When life becomes tough, we assume God's hand is too short to save us, but Isaiah 30:18...well it tells us what to do...Isaiah writes that those who wait upon God will be blessed.

There is no question about it, he doesn't say that they MAY be blessed, or that youMIGHTbe blessed, he states it loud and clear,YOU WILL BE BLESSED.Amen Isaiah, amen.

Its not...."when life hands you lemons"... rather...LIFE WILL HAND YOU LEMONS...So start building that stand...get the sugar and salt ready!

If we go on to verse 27 of the same chapter, the puzzle slowly starts to come together. We seeTHE LORD, and guess what? He "comes from far away".

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,

your Savior, your Redeemer is on His way. The show is about to start, just please be patient. It is not about our time and our situation, it is ALLabout HIS GLORY.

There is a perfect timing for the revelation of HIS GLORY. He has to, He wants to, He will be....EXALTED.

That's what it has been about all along. Really...

I know you are hurting, I know some of you may be going through some tough situations right now, but be strengthened in knowing that God is FOR us.
He is on His way, to make His name GLORIOUS.
