So many substitute other things for a fake and temporary god that has no life and will be destroyed.

Our God is the true and Living God, who lives forever.

Jeremiah 10:10-11 (KJV) – but the Lord is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting king: at his wrath the earth shall tremble, and the nations shall not be able to abide his indignation. Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens.

They are more precious than the finest of any silver and gold.

He loves it when you speak the truth.

We seem to think we have power over God.

God sent the Holy Spirit to live in you and give you power.

But that doesn’t mean you have power over the Holy Spirit.

John 13:16 (KJV) – verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.

We have adult temper tantrums when we don’t have our way.

It’s not always for you to have your way, but a lesson for you to learn.
