Hebrews 12:29 For our God is a consuming fire.

We have a multitude of examples in our Bibles showing us God has ultimate power over life and death.

We have many examples of how God dealt with people who refused to believe in Him or took other gods instead of Him.

This is why God is described as being a consuming fire – fire burns everything down to nothing…

Don’t give in to the world which is going to be reduced to absolutely nothing but rather hold firm to God who is in control!

Psalm 2:12 Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, And you perish in the way, When His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.

Written many years before Christ came to earth, this psalm gives us instruction to love Christ just as we love God because He is the Son of God.

Think about it; if God, who is omni-potent were to get just a little angry – how much damage could He do in our lives?

It is lucky for us He extends His grace far beyond the normal limits to show us His great love and we can therefor bask in that love by trusting in Him totally!

Ephesians 1:12 that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory.

Why would God try to get things through to you? Why would He try and get you to do His will in your life?

So that when you trust in Him and see what He is capable of, you will go out and tell others of His glory and His wonders!

God wants you to be a good example for Him. God wants you to be an example of what can happen to people who believe and trust in Him.

Not for your glory, but to give Him the glory He deserves!

Ephesians 1:9 having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself,

God is in control. He has purpose in everything He does. He continues to try and get us to see this and follow His will!

Have you ever wondered how God manages to get things through to you even when you least expect it?

God is willing and able to use everything and everyone around us to get His will through to us.

Are you listening to everything and comparing it with God’s Word to see if it does come from Him?
