Song # 1413.1 from Our Gospel In Song Collection by Col Johnston. In the Book of Isaiah we read in chapter 45 that God is telling the people that He is the only God.
“I am the Lord, and there is no other” (Isaiah 45:18). “I have not spoken in secret, I have not said to Jacob’s descendants ‘Seek me in vain.’ I, the Lord speak the truth, I declare what is right” (Isaiah 45:19). “Gather together and come, you fugitives from the nations. Ignorant are those who carry about idols of wood, who pray to gods that cannot save” (Isaiah 45:20). “Declare what is to be, let them take counsel together, for there is no God apart from me, a righteous God and a Saviour, there is none but me” (Isaiah 45:21). “Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth, for I am God, and there is no other” (Isaiah 45:22). “Before me every knee will bow, by me every tongue will swear” (Isaiah 45:23). “They will say of me ‘In the Lord alone are righteousness and strength’ ” (Isaiah 45:24).
Thought for today: God’s Spirit in our heart ensures our eternal life.
Thought for tomorrow: the more we look to heaven, the less we need on earth. Where will you spend your eternity?
