God vs. Man

9/8/07 Bro Lee

It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man because God is all powerful. The things which are impossible with man are possible with God. The Lord has promised to show us great and mighty things when we call upon Him. He does great and unsearchable things and marvelous things without number .

Man often fails to keep his promises. He may even lie and deny the promises he has made. Man may also change his mind and refuse to fulfill his promises. But God is not One who fails to keep His word. The word which comes from the mouth of God will not return void to Him but will accomplish the purpose for which it was sent.

He has promised to be with us always even till the end of the world . He has said " I will never leave you nor forsake you ". He is our shade at our right hand. No man can be with us all the time. Man may also pass away from this world. But God will be with us at all times and in all situations . His presence will be with us in times of joy, sorrow, celebration, loneliness, disappointment, fulfillment, prosperity, poverty, health, sickness etc.

The Lord will not keep His anger against us forever. He has not punished us according to what we deserve. He is merciful towards us. Even when we are afflicted because of our transgressions and iniquities. He is merciful to deliver us when we cry out to Him. Man may not forgive us or show mercy to us when we fail. Man may not rescue us when we suffer because of our mistakes. David preferred to fall into the hands of God rather than into the hands of men because God's mercies are very great. Therefore we must put our trust in God.
