THROUGH THE BIBLE IN THREE YEARS
The Sunday School teacher was giving a lesson on personal character.
The main theme was that we should always be the same, wherever we are.
She said, "You should never do anything in private that you wouldn't do in public."
One little boy asked, "Does that mean we don't hafta take baths anymore?"

Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith the LORD, and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.

Compared to the omnipotent, omniscient Creator-Savior-God, we are but "worms."
But when we surrender to Jesus as our Lord, then He promises "help"!!
Notice that He is "the LORD, and thy redeember..!"
The God of the Old Testament is the Jesus of the New Testament.
Isa 43:11 says, "I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour."
Jesus is God in flesh come to pay the penalty of our sins.
He was crucified, laid in a tomb, arose from the dead, ascended into glory, and is soon to return!
He obtained victory over death vicariously for you and me!
Christians, you have the promise of His providential care.
You have the promise of His continual "help."
The presence of Him who overcame death resides in your person!
Let us resolve to live enjoined to His eternal Spirit, and displaying to all His holy love!
Love ya,
Bruce
