Have You Chosen Him?

Job 23:13

But He stands alone, and who can oppose Him? He does whatever He pleases.

God stands alone, the only God, none equals Him. There is no other anywhere in all Creation that can stand beside Him; He has no rival.

He has the power and authority to do whatever He pleases, and He only pleases to do what is good--for our benefit and for His glory. Even when He punishes the wicked, it displays His power, authority and goodness to those who love Him.

His favor extends to every man (mankind), but not every man chooses Him. He has given us the authority to choose, and, even though He wants us all to choose him, He still allows those who reject His goodness to have what they have chosen--an eternity without Him.

Since God is light, they will have no light; He is love, they will experience no love; He is good, they will know no goodness; He is hope, they will have no hope.

Have you chosen Him?

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
