Isaiah 43:22
Isaiah 43:22 (MSG)
"But you didn't pay a bit of attention to me, Jacob. You so quickly tired of me, Israel. You wouldn't even bring sheep for offerings in worship. You couldn't be bothered with sacrifices. It wasn't that I asked that much from you. I didn't expect expensive presents. But you didn't even do the minimum— so stingy with me, so closefisted. Yet you haven't been stingy with your sins. You've been plenty generous with them—and I'm fed up.Created 21 days ago

We're not keeping this quiet, not on your life. Just like the psalmist who wrote, "I believed it, so I said it," we say what we believe.

Every detail works to your advantage and to God's glory: more and more grace, more and more people, more and more praise!Created about 1 month ago

Deuteronomy 9:4-5 (MSG)
But when god pushes them out ahead of you, don't start thinking to yourselves, "It's because of all the good I've done that god has brought me in here to dispossess these nations." Actually it's because of all the evil these nations have done. No, it's nothing good that you've done, no record for decency that you've built up, that got you here; it's because of the vile wickedness of these nations that god, your God, is dispossessing them before you so that he can keep his promised word to your ancestors, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.Created 3 months ago

Deuteronomy 7:7
Deuteronomy 7:7 (MSG)
god wasn't attracted to you and didn't choose you because you were big and important—the fact is, there was almost nothing to you. He did it out of sheer love, keeping the promise he made to your ancestors. god stepped in and mightily bought you back out of that world of slavery, freed you from the iron grip of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Know this: god, your God, is God indeed, a God you can depend upon. He keeps his covenant of loyal love with those who love him and observe his commandments for a thousand generations. But he also pays back those who hate him, pays them the wages of death; he isn't slow to pay them off—those who hate him, he pays right on time.Created 3 months ago

When you take it all in and settle down, pleased and content, make sure you don't forget how you got there—god brought you out of slavery in Egypt.Created 3 months ago
