Lord, reflecting on Your Word and dissecting Your truths in our hearts, we can’t help but acknowledge there is none like You. You alone are God, no one else. You are all righteousness, holiness, and sovereignty. Because You are God, You get to set the moral principles and standards for living, not man (Psalm 119:137). Beginning at the Garden, Adam fell for the lie he could set his own values. Things quickly went downhill. You set the bar and Your precepts are fair for the believer as well as the non-believer. Following Your principles bring contentment, peace, and an abiding faith and hope in Your promises, which have proven trustworthy over the centuries. And to seal Your promises forever, You sent Your only Son Jesus to redeem us.
Headlines, entertainment, social media, academia, et al, prove how ignoring Your standards and following fallen man’s ever-changing values brings social disorder, divisions among people, corruption at all levels, and hatred for all things righteous and pure. Despite the chaos, there is hope. You stand ready, arms open to receive all who want to flee from this broken world to place their faith in You, Jesus.
We praise You, Lord, for Your principles and standards have been tried and tested over the centuries and we can trust our lives by Your standards. Amen.
THANKFUL
