A Hard Truth For Some Of Us

“Let be and be still, and know (recognize and understand) that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth!” In this text the Lord is flexing a bit. He’s saying He will be exalted in the earth. Among the nations He will be exalted. Most people don’t realize the earth is the Lord’s and everything living on it belongs to Him. Satan runs things temporarily, but in the end, which is coming soon, every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. As we become still, and begin to slow down, we position ourselves to know He is God. The busyness of this world is designed to keep you so busy you can’t acknowledge God, you ain’t got time. And that’s why you need to change your life habits to conform to a more conducive lifestyle which includes the Lord in your day. Knowing the Lord gives us an advantage when it comes to fulfilling our own calling and purpose in life. Spending even 10 or 15 minutes of alone time with God, (reading the bible, singing praise songs, a prayer for the day’s safety) will work wonders. The more you increase your time spent with God, the more you will know He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. If after your last day on earth you haven’t confessed Jesus as Lord and Savior of your life, and you haven’t taken a knee physically or in your heart, He will force you to do it, before sending you to eternal punishment. Know He is God before you pass on to the other side. God is love, but He is also a God of justice, and justice must be satisfied.
