Paslm 119: 89-91
Forever, O Lord, Your word is settled in Heaven. Your faithfulness continues throughout all generations. You established the Earth, and it stands. They stand this day according to Your ordinances. For all things are Your servants.
What God has said cannot be unsaid. What He has done cannot be undone. What He has decided cannot be changed. God will faithfully carry out everything He has planned, no one can thwart Him.
God made the Earth and established the Natural Laws to govern it, with the rest of the Universe. And it all operates according to the rules and perameters God set for it all; it all obeys God.
And we, also, will do well to obey.
It's when we disobey that we encounter troubles. When we think we have a better idea, or we just don't want to give up our pride and selfishness.
If only we would learn that loving God and loving one another is the only right road to take to get along with this World and with each other.
God loves us more than we can imagine, and He made this Earth for us, putting into it all the abundance we will ever need. And all we need to do is just obey the rules He set for us, to both enjoy the wealth and enjoy our relationships with one another.
Our problem is that pesky defect in our "flesh" that pulls us away from the good God wants to give us. And the World around us throws all kinds of alternatives at us. And then there's our enemy, Satan, who only comes around to kill, steal, and destroy.
Three against us, and "only" God for us. But God is greater than all of these together, and when He puts His Spirit into our spirit, then we have the power to overcome those wayward tendencies. Only God in us will gain the victory over the World, the flesh and the devil.
That's why Jesus came. And He is coming again, to finish the job. He will win the final victory over all our enemies, and we will reign with Him forever in the New Heaven and New Earth. And the increase of His Kingdom will have no end.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
