Encouragement
Below are several scriptures which begin with the words "there is". The expression "there is", is a statement of fact whether for good or bad. "There is" are statements of God's reality and God's creation and we must submit to all facts as being God created and God interpreted. Only by living in terms of this reality can we avoid living in a world of illusion which is often dangerous and out of harmony with God's will.
"There is none Holy as the LORD." 1 Samuel 2:2
(What if we thought there was someone holier than the LORD we might be tempted to worship that someone and so dishonor the most holy one even the LORD of creation)
There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the Most High. Psalm 46:4
(What if there were no river by which God's people could drink and find gladness? Many are tempted to seek gladness in other
places)
There is he that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing; there is he that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches. Proverbs 13:7
(What has the rich man without God more than the poor man with God? Nothing! How few find eternal life who seek unrighteous
mammon. Truly, the love of money is the root of all evil. 1 Tim 1:6)
There is a way which seemeth right to a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. Proverbs 14:12
(Avoiding the way that seems right and choosing the way that is right is the key to avoiding death John 14:6)
There is a season and a time to every purpose under the heavens. Ecclesiastes 3:1
There is no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the spirit; neither hath he power in the day of death. Ecclessiastes 8:8
There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked. Isaiah 57:21
(Many people imagine themselves calm and secure and free of controversy with God but of the wicked God says they have no peace because their sins make them at war with God.)
There is none good but one, that is, God. Matthew 10:18
(How many are deceived who trust in themselves that they are good by nature or that mankind is basically good. This is the theology of liberals and God says they are liars for there is none good but God.)
For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hidden that shall not be made known. Luke 12:2
For there is no other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12
(Many are the false religions that teach salvation is by any other person than Jesus Christ. No man whether Mohammed, Confucius, or the Dalai Lama can save for there is no other
name that Jesus the Christ for He shall save His people from their sins Matthew 1:21)
There is none righteous, no not one. Romans 3:10
(Those trusting in their works or law keeping for their righteousness have not the righteousness of God *Phil 3:9*
but a self-righteousness which can not deliver from death.Proverbs 11:4 Thus none can stand before God on their own merits. They must have the righteousness of Jesus Christ imputed to them Gal 2:16; Rom. 4:22)
There is none that seeketh after God. Romans 3:12
(While we are commanded to seek God *Matthew 6:33* we are certain of this impossiblity apart from the miracle of God's salvation or drawing by the Father John 6:44)
There is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit. Romans 8:1
(The wonderful grace of God delivers from condemnation all those who are in Christ Jesus which means there is condemnation or the wrath of God abiding on those outside of the Son.)
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female; for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. Galatians 3:28
(The great division God made under the Old Covenant between Jew and Greek is done away in Christ. Then God gave greater privileges to the Jew but all who sincerely believe on Christ, of what nation, or sex, or condition, soever they be, are accepted of him, and become the children of God through faith in him.)
There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling. Ephesians 4:4
