New and Old!

For, “All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers and the flower falls off, But the word of the Lord endures forever.” 1 PETER 1:24‭-‬25a AMP

By God's original design, life was made to be beautiful. Everything God made was confirmed as being good. Whether it was vegetation, animals or even elements of the firmament, all were formed good. We know sin came to distort the original, but it takes nothing away from what God intended from the beginning.

Now, no matter what my eyes see, I must learn that nothing lasts unless it is sustained by God himself. If all of life finds its source in God, how then do you imagine that anything will survive outside of that God himself? All the beauty and finesse we see today is a reflection of God's nature and power and all will remain at his command and authority. When he gives the Word, everything aligns with what he has said. If he says 'Remain', everything remains. If he says -Remove', I don't know any power that can keep that thing in place. No matter how beautiful, important or fundamental anything is, remember - God is the ultimate.

Nothing will last forever, except his Word.  Whatever he has spoken is backed up by the greatest force in the world - his name, character and power. Whatever he has said will definitely come to pass. I must get a Word from God for my daily life. There are too many uncertainties and inconsistencies, and only God's sure Word will help me through life and keep my feet secure. Do you have that Word? His time of favour is here.
