// TUESDAY //
Read – Romans 1:18-21, 1 Timothy 2:3-4
SOAP – Romans 1:20
No Man Left Behind!
"Forever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God." Romans 1:20 NLT
The truth is God is everywhere, whether His creation/people choose to believe or not, He still is. Those who say they don't believe, have NO excuse! We can see God visibly & invisibly in His creation! He is omniscient, omnipotent & omnipresent! He just IS! He is the I AM all around us!
We need to stop trying to prove He is and let Him show others He is... we just need to speak and show forth His truth. He wants EVERYONE to come to the knowledge of Him & have a special relationship with Him. He loves each of us as if we were the only one. We need to PRAISE Him for His goodness and help share the TRUTH. The truth was made OBVIOUS to them... but they have been shadowed from the truth by the darkness of sin. We need to walk in the Truth!
1 Timothy 2:3-4 NLT "This is good and pleases God our Savior, who wants everyone to be saved and to understand the truth."
In Rom.1:25, it says "they exchanged the truth of God for a lie and worshipped and served created things rather than the Creator who is forever praised." -- God allowed his people to do what their human desires led them to do... and a lot of them chose to go the way of sin. BUT He has also allowed us to choose the Truth and those of us who repent and turn from our sin can be a part of His family and share in His inheritance of Life! Jesus doesn't just FORCE Himself on us, it is a choice. We have to align our Spirit man with our Flesh man & that's a tough thing to do on our own. First, we have to KNOW that there is One who can help us. The Way, the Truth and the Life! The old VBS saying comes back to me again and again... "If you want to know who you are, you must first know Jesus!" It's like "Captain Obvious" to us, but we need to declare the truth to others in our walk and in our talk.
Romans 1:25 reminds me of a drama/skit I did in Youth group "The Statue" (a modern take of the Golden Calf)... what are 'statues' in our lives that have to come down? God is taking this time of Quarantine to refresh and renew us and bring us back to our First Love.
Be blessed today and if you see snow... remember God washes us as white as the snow... if we choose to let Him! So thankful you have all chosen this time to get closer to Him!! Now off to read your revelations! I just love that part too!!
Romans 1 v21 in the Passion Translation says "fingerprints of God"... and it reminded me of course of a song... so I will share with you. Praying it touches your heart if you are not feeling like a 'masterpiece'! The video has the lyrics so you can read them and remind yourself that all creation applauds the YOU that God made as we all applaud Him who made us.
