We Underestimate God
This is not a rebuke. This is a fact.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts. (Isaiah 55:9)
We can’t even think of all God is able to do!
Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power the works within us… (Ephesians 3:20)
Nothing is impossible for Him.
For nothing will be impossible with God. (Luke 1:37)
God’s Character
Since God is able to do anything, knowing His character is a key to peace.
God’s word tells us a lot:
The LORD, the LORD God, compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in lovingkindness and truth; who keeps lovingkindness for thousands, who forgives iniquity, transgression and sin, yet He will by no means leave the guilty unpunished, visiting the iniquity of fathers on the children and on the grandchildren to the third and fourth generations. (Exodus 34:6-7)
For Christians:
There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. (Romans 8:1)
God is for us. (Romans 8:31)
[Nothing] will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:39)
Joyfully Press On
Given God’s power, His character, and His great grace to those in Christ Jesus, let’s joyfully press on!
