Tuesday's Tidbit

Isaiah 45:21

 Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the Lord? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me.

Good morning, family & friends!

Continuing along the vein I've chosen for November blogging - thankfulness, today's subject is God. I am thankful for God, for one God - Creator of all, my Deliverer, Provider, Savior, my King, and the list goes on and on. 

Many scriptures are going through my mind right now that I've read and been taught since I was young:

Genesis 1:1

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

John 1:1

 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

John 1:14

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

Isaiah 9:6

 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Luke 1:35

And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

1 Timothy 3:16

 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

I love God and so glad I know Him! How sad it would be to follow the belief of some that He does not exist! This song will convey more of how my heart feels about being thankful that there is a God:

Lift up Holy Hands

Written by Darren Thomas, recorded by Bishop Norman L. Wagner & The Mount Calvary Concert Choir

I'm going to lift up holy hands in the presence of the Lord

Lift up holy hands in the presence of the Lord

I'm going to lift up holy hands in the presence of the Lord

Lift up holy hands in the presence of the Lord

In the presence of the Lord, ooh (I've found the fullness of the Lord)

In the presence of the Lord, ooh (I've found the fullness of the Lord)

Holy, holy, holy, holy

Holy, wonderful, marvelous, glorious,

omnipotent, righteous, and mighty

Lord, we praise You, we lift You up

We magnify, we glorify, we exalt You,

We extol You, we adore You, Hallelujah

Come lift Him up, come lift Him up, come lift Him up

Come lift Him up, let's lift Him up

Oh, let us rejoice today because we serve one God! He was manifest in the flesh to dwell among men; to be the sacrifice for our sins at Calvary; and when He ascended back to heaven, He sent His spirit, the Holy Ghost, to dwell in us. Praise God for this beautiful revelation!

Have a terrific Tuesday! Hopefully, we'll meet again tomorrow for another spoonful of thankful tonic!
