God is
true, only a fool says there is no God!
I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has
risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see
everything else. C. S. Lewis Psalm 19th chapter reveals 3
ways we know there is a God, read the glorious song of King
David.
I. The heavens first declare that there is a God who came
from nowhere, took nothing and with nothing created all
things that exist.
- Psalms 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and
the firmament sheweth his handywork.
A. Psalms 14 and 53rd chapters the man who says there is no God is
corrupt, is a liar, and never does good.
B. Atheism turns out to be too simple. If the whole universe has no
meaning, we should never have found out that it has no
meaning. - C. S. Lewis
II. Second, we have the Bible, the Word of God. It declares
the God of Creation.
It is filled with thousands of promises not only showing the
wonders, character and love of God but His plan of salvation
for us.
- Psalms 19:7-8 The law of the LORD is perfect,
converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure,
making wise the simple.
Statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the
commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
The Bible leads us to conversion making us part of God’s
family.
It brings Jesus to us where we can call on Him and receive
Him and be born again.
A. A Bible in the hand is worth two in the bookcase.
1. The Bible is a window in this prison-world, through which
we may look into eternity. Timothy Dwight.
III. We know there is a God when the Word enters our hearts
and we begin to have victory and assurance of His great
salvation, promises and will for our lives.
- Psalms 19:13-14 Keep back thy servant also from
presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then
shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great
transgression. Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation
of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my
strength, and my redeemer.
The blessing of hearing, reading and living the Word of God!
HELPS KEEP US FROM SINNING.
THE WORD GIVE US WISDOM.
THE WORD IS OUR SPIRITUAL FOOD TO GROW AND BE STRENGTHEN.
"I would recommend you either believe God up to the hilt,
or else not to believe at all. Believe this book of God,
every letter of it, or else reject it. There is no logical
standing place between the two. Be satisfied with nothing
less than a faith that swims in the deeps of divine
revelation; a faith that paddles about the edge of the water
is poor faith at best. It is little better than a dry-land
faith, and is not good for much."
- C.H. Spurgeon
A quote from Hudson Taylor. He said: “There are three
stages to every great work of God: first it is impossible,
then it is difficult, then it is done”.
God bless you and yours!
