Devotion   Isaiah 40:28-31  Jesus Is The Only Answer

Isaiah 40:28-31 –  28 Do you not know?  Have you not heard?  The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth.  He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.  29 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.  30 Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; 31 but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.  They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

When I’m feeling great, I think on the person of God.  How good, how great, how wonderful He is.  Though I may think that I can feel no better than what I am feeling, considering who God is, and that He loves me and claims me as His own, lifts me even higher.  It is good to be in the presence of God.  How wonderful it is to be united with those who love and serve the Lord and give praise to Him. How wonderful it is to be alone with the Lord and to give praise to Him.  God Almighty, who is higher than all else, loves and cares for us.  What a wonder that He who needs no one, who is complete within Himself, has chosen to love and care for us.  Selah, think about it.  He who has no equal, the Almighty God, has His eyes upon us.  He cares for us.  He loves us.  Being our Creator He knows we are weak and our sustenance can only be Him.  Stopping and considering the greatness, and humility of God, and that He loves us, brings peace to our souls and joy to our hearts and minds.   I cannot help but rejoice that the Almighty God loves me.  That He should even consider me “blows me away.”  It is too much to fathom.

Considering the greatness of God and His love is the antidote for when we feel weak and tired.  Again we consider His greatness and that He loves us and we are lifted up.  Not by riling ourselves up, but by considering who our God is and yielding to the touch His Holy Spirit.  Family, God loves us and that is a supernatural miracle in itself.  Praise the Lord!

Our brother Andrae Crouch wrote this simple and truthful great song:

Chorus:
Jesus is the answer, for the world today,
Above Him there’s no other,
Jesus is the way. 2x

Verse One:
If you have some questions
In the corners of your mind,
Traces of discouragement,
and peace you cannot find,
Reflections of your past,
Seem to face you everyday,
But there’s one thing I want you to know,
that Jesus is the way.

Chorus:
Jesus is the answer, for the world today,
Above Him there’s no other,
Jesus is the way. 2x

Verse Two:
I know that you’ve got mountains,
That you think you cannot climb,
I know your skies looks so dark,
That you think the sun will never ever shine,
But in case you don’t know it,
I tell you God’s word is true,
Everything that he has promised,
I know that he will do it for you.

Chorus:
Jesus is the Answer, for the world today,
Above Him there’s no other,
Jesus is the way.3x

To those who don’t know Him, it sounds too simple that Jesus is always the answer for every situation.  Whether we are on the mountaintop, or feeling run over by the traffic of the world, Jesus is answer for us.  As we consider the great love of God that has been expressed to us through our Savior and Lord Jesus, we find that in every circumstance in our life, Jesus is both the answer and the safeguard.  Praise our God with all that we are!  Praise Him continuously!  How wonderful to consider the greatness of God and to know that God is good all the time and that He loves us for all time!  Praise God!

Psalm 150:6 – Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.  Praise the Lord! 

Micah 7:7 – But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me. 

Micah 6:8 – He has shown You, O man, what is good; And what does the Lord require of You but to do justly, to love mercy, And to walk humbly with Your God.
