"The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever. (Isaiah 40:8)
Everything Dies, but God's Word will Forever Reign
Seasons change, and people change. Man has been doomed to die since the beginning both physically and spiritually. (Genesis 3). We are likened to grass and flowers that wither and fade, but God is not like mortal man. God is a Spirit. He is the Creator of all things. He is constant, and eternal. As mankind fads from generation to generation, God's Word will remain. He is the answer to life and that will never change. God is the same yesterday today and forever. (Hebrews 13:8) He will never fail to do what He says. God tells us in His Word that, ".... My word be which goes out of My mouth; It will not return to Me void (useless, without result), Without accomplishing what I desire, and without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it. (Isaiah 55:11) " That is, God's Word works the same as the rain that He sends to water the Earth which causes the grass and flowers to grow; It accomplishes what it was sent to do. We can trust God's promises.
Man has an Appointed Time
One day we will die; ... it is appointed and destined for all men to die once and after this [comes certain] judgment (Hebrews 9:27) Although death is inevitable, it is not the end it is a transition to judgement. Be prepared for Jesus' return. Repent! Stop doing all of whatever you want to do outside of God's will. Accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior. When we do things God's way we don't lose we win. Jesus is God's Way (John 14:6). “For God so [greatly] loved and dearly prized the world, that He [even] gave His [One and] only begotten Son, so that whoever believes and trusts in Him [as Savior] shall not perish, but have eternal life. (John 3:16) Don't sleep. Stay focused. "The Lord does not delay [as though He were unable to act] and is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is [extraordinarily] patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance. (2 Peter3:9) Keep actively watching and praying that you may not come into temptation; the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.” (Matthew 26:41). "You will continually hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end [of the age]. (Matthew 24:6)
Learn Life's Lessons; Take Note
“Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its young shoots become tender and it puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near; so you, too, when you see all these things [taking place], know for certain that He is near, right at the door. I assure you and most solemnly say to you, this generation [the people living when these signs and events begin] will not pass away until all these things take place. Heaven and earth [as now known] will pass away, but My words will not pass away. “But of that [exact] day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son [in His humanity], but the Father alone. For the coming of the Son of Man (the Messiah) will be just like the days of Noah. For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the [very] day when Noah entered the ark, and they did not know or understand until the flood came and swept them all away; so will the coming of the Son of Man be [unexpected judgment]. (Mattew 24:32-39)
Praise God from Whom all blessings flow. Put it all in His hands. Have a blessed stress-free worry-free day on purpose and never stop believing Jesus paid it all.
