Isaiah 46

"Can you picture me without reducing me?"

God is as close as your next breath, as near as your best friend, but he's WAY bigger than that. It's hard to get our pea brains around his awesomeness, the mystery.

That's why we worship him.

What the alternative? "A dependable god (little g), always right where you put it."

God is on the move in the world, in the least of these.

God is up to something and we're here to help him, not to control the outcome of things.

"I'm putting salvation to work in Zion now, and glory in Israel."

God is doing what God does best: salvation. In our midst. Now. Here.

  1. (v9)"... For I am God-I only-and there is no other like me." Again the emphasis of false gods and that we only have one Father. He is the One that knows all things to come. He is the One who sent His Son on our behalf. As it was during Isaiah's time He offers salvation to
    all who worship Him. We have been given the greatest gift in God's Son Jesus. Through Him
    we can have a relationship with the one and only GOD.
