GLIMPSES OF THE GREAT GOD: DAY ELEVEN 

"Listen to me, O house of Jacob, all you who remain of the house of Israel,

you whom I have upheld since you were conceived, and have carried since your birth.

Even to your old age and grey hairs I am He,

I am He who will sustain you.

I have made you and I will carry you;

I will sustain you and I will rescue you.

To whom will you compare me or count me equal?

To whom will you liken me that we may be compared?

....I am God and there is no other; I am God and there is none like me."

Isaiah 46:3-5, 9b

Isaiah focuses on the God who is timeless and unchanging in the midst of a changing world. God was there when you arrived on the scene and He will still be there when you leave. He was not only there but He was there for you. What a comfort to know that He upheld you from the moment of your conception and when you were born He put His strong arms around you and carried you, day after day. Through all the seasons of your life, growing up, maturing into adulthood, learning and taking on responsibilities, facing struggles and loss, He was there. Now He gives you the same assurance. The God who was there with you in the past is still with you now and will be with you until the end of your days. There is no other God like Him. There is no-one who comes remotely close to the God He is. As you have traversed the Scriptures day by day, you are encountering this amazing, unchanging, very big and yet merciful and loving God who is your God and your Father.
