The Heavens Declare The Glory of God

"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands" (Psalm 19:1) If we would look up on a clear night we might see that our perceived status, as well as our varied problems, are all quite small.

I am the LORD, And There Is None Else

I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me.

(Psalm 62:1-2) You who live in the shelter of the Most High, who abide in the shadow of the Almighty, will say to the Lord, "My refuge and my fortress; my God in whom I trust." (Psalm 91:1-2) Those who love me, I will deliver; I will protect those who know my name. Whe

The glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard

Then shall your light break forth like the dawn, and your healing shall spring up speedily; your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard.~Isaiah 58:8
