to know god is to know love

1 John 4:8 (MSG)
The person who refuses to love doesn't know the first thing about God, because God is love-so you can't know him if you don't love.

our living Father

Isaiah 63:16 (MSG)
You are our Father. Abraham and Israel are long dead. They wouldn't know us from Adam. But you're our living Father, our Redeemer, famous from eternity!

our Father

Isaiah 63:11 (MSG)
Then they remembered the old days, the days of Moses, God's servant: "Where is he who brought the shepherds of his flock up and out of the sea? And what happened to the One who set his Holy Spirit within them? Who linked his arm with Moses' right arm, divided the waters before them, Making him famous ever after, and led them through the muddy abyss as surefooted as horses on hard, level ground? Like a herd of cattle led to pasture, the Spirit of God gave them rest."

Isaiah 63:16 (MSG)
You are our Father. Abraham and Israel are long dead. They wouldn't know us from Adam. But you're our living Father, our Redeemer, famous from eternity!

the One

Isaiah 63:11 (MSG)
Then they remembered the old days, the days of Moses, God's servant: "Where is he who brought the shepherds of his flock up and out of the sea? And what happened to the One who set his Holy Spirit within them? Who linked his arm with Moses' right arm, divided the waters before them, Making him famous ever after, and led them through the muddy abyss as surefooted as horses on hard, level ground? Like a herd of cattle led to pasture, the Spirit of God gave them rest."

God's fast

Isaiah 58:3 (MSG)
But they also complain, 'Why do we fast and you don't look our way? Why do we humble ourselves and you don't even notice?' "Well, here's why: "The bottom line on your 'fast days' is profit. You drive your employees much too hard.

Israel's Maker

Isaiah 45:11 (MSG)
Thus God, The Holy of Israel, Israel's Maker, says: "Do you question who or what I'm making? Are you telling me what I can or cannot do? I made earth, and I created man and woman to live on it. I handcrafted the skies and direct all the constellations in their turnings. And now I've got Cyrus on the move. I've rolled out the red carpet before him. He will build my city. He will bring home my exiles. I didn't hire him to do this. I told him. I, God-of-the-Angel-Armies."

Redeemer

Isaiah 44:6 (MSG)
God, King of Israel, your Redeemer, God-of-the-Angel-Armies, says: "I'm first, I'm last, and everything in between. I'm the only God there is. Who compares with me? Speak up. See if you measure up. From the beginning, who else has always announced what's coming? So what is coming next? Anybody want to venture a try? Don't be afraid, and don't worry: Haven't I always kept you informed, told you what was going on? You're my eyewitnesses: Have you ever come across a God, a real God, other than me? There's no Rock like me that I know of."

Creator of Israel

Isaiah 43:15 (MSG)
I am God, your Holy One, Creator of Israel, your King."

Isaiah 43:26 (MSG)
"So, make your case against me. Let's have this out. Make your arguments. Prove you're in the right. Your original ancestor started the sinning, and everyone since has joined in. That's why I had to disqualify the Temple leaders, repudiate Jacob and discredit Israel."

The Holy of Israel

Isaiah 30:15 (MSG)
God, the Master, The Holy of Israel, has this solemn counsel: "Your salvation requires you to turn back to me and stop your silly efforts to save yourselves. Your strength will come from settling down in complete dependence on me— The very thing you've been unwilling to do. You've said, 'Nothing doing! We'll rush off on horseback!' You'll rush off, all right! Just not far enough! You've said, 'We'll ride off on fast horses!' Do you think your pursuers ride old nags? Think again: A thousand of you will scatter before one attacker. Before a mere five you'll all run off. There'll be nothing left of you— a flagpole on a hill with no flag, a signpost on a roadside with the sign torn off."

The Leveler

Isaiah 26:7 (MSG)
The path of right-living people is level. The Leveler evens the road for the right-living. We're in no hurry, God. We're content to linger in the path sign-posted with your decisions. Who you are and what you've done are all we'll ever want. Through the night my soul longs for you. Deep from within me my spirit reaches out to you. When your decisions are on public display, everyone learns how to live right. If the wicked are shown grace, they don't seem to get it. In the land of right living, they persist in wrong living, blind to the splendor of God.

God-Aware

Isaiah 23:18 (MSG)
But everything she gets, all the money she takes in, will be turned over to God. It will not be put in banks. Her profits will be put to the use of God-Aware, God-Serving-People, providing plenty of food and the best of clothing.

God Serving People

Isaiah 23:18 (MSG)
But everything she gets, all the money she takes in, will be turned over to God. It will not be put in banks. Her profits will be put to the use of God-Aware, God-Serving-People, providing plenty of food and the best of clothing.

Greatest

Isaiah 12:6 (MSG)
Raise the roof! Sing your hearts out, O Zion! The Greatest lives among you: The Holy of Israel."

Strong God

Isaiah 10:21 (MSG)
The ragtag remnant-what's left of Jacob-will come back to the Strong God.

The Holy

Isaiah 8:13 (MSG)
If you're going to worry, worry about The Holy. Fear God-of-the-Angel-Armies.

Master

Isaiah 1:24 (MSG)
This Decree, therefore, of the Master, God-of-the-Angel-Armies, the Strong One of Israel: "This is it! I'll get my oppressors off my back. I'll get back at my enemies. I'll give you the back of my hand, purge the junk from your life, clean you up. I'll set honest judges and wise counselors among you just like it was back in the beginning. Then you'll be renamed City-That-Treats-People-Right, the True-Blue City." God's right ways will put Zion right again. God's right actions will restore her penitents. But it's curtains for rebels and God-traitors, a dead end for those who walk out on God. "Your dalliances in those oak grove shrines will leave you looking mighty foolish, All that fooling around in god and goddess gardens that you thought was the latest thing. You'll end up like an oak tree with all its leaves falling off, Like an unwatered garden, withered and brown. 'The Big Man' will turn out to be dead bark and twigs, and his 'work,' the spark that starts the fire That exposes man and work both as nothing but cinders and smoke."

Advocate

Proverbs 23:11 (MSG)
For they have a powerful Advocate who will go to bat for them.

Kind One

May the Just One set me straight, may the Kind One correct me, Don't let sin anoint my head. I'm praying hard against their evil ways!

Just One

Psalm 141:5 (MSG)

Strong God of Jacob

Psalm 132:2 (MSG)
And remember how he promised God, made a vow to the Strong God of Jacob,

where does my help come from?

Psalm 121:1 (MSG)
I look up to the mountains; does my strength come from mountains? No, my strength comes from God, who made heaven, and earth, and mountains.

what do I give to God?

Psalm 116:12 (MSG)
What can I give back to god for the blessings he's poured out on me? I'll lift high the cup of salvation—a toast to God! I'll pray in the name of god; I'll complete what I promised god I'd do, and I'll do it together with his people. When they arrive at the gates of death, god welcomes those who love him. Oh, god, here I am, your servant, your faithful servant: set me free for your service! I'm ready to offer the thanksgiving sacrifice and pray in the name of god. I'll complete what I promised god I'd do, and I'll do it in company with his people, In the place of worship, in god's house, in Jerusalem, God's city. Hallelujah!
