The Thought For Today

Encouraging You Through God's Word

     Today is a new day! As the sun is shining, I am reminded of God’s goodness. As a believer in Jesus, the only son of God, my mind is fixed on Psalm 18:30-31. It says, “God’s way is perfect. All the LORD’s promises prove true. He is a shield for all who look to him for protection. For who is God except the LORD? Who but our God is a solid rock?” When I think about my God, I can shout at the fact, “There is None”!

     “There is None” because He is a jealous God. Jesus said in Matthew 22:37-38, “You must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment.”

   “There is None” because there is nobody like Him! Romans 11:33-36 proclaims, “Oh, how great are God’s riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his ways! For who can know the LORD’s thoughts? Who knows enough to give him advice? And who has given him so much that he needs to pay it back? For everything comes from him and exists by his power and is intended for his glory. All glory to him forever! Amen.”

   “There is None” because He is worthy of your full commitment. Jesus reminds us in John 14:15, “If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.” When we are fully committed to Jesus, we will be able to live out James 1:22. It says, “But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.”

     Today, make the decision to give the only true and living God, the honor and recognition that is due to His name because simply “There is None”!

“There is None” Praise Report: Most Gracious, Heavenly, Father, thank you! We thank you Lord for being God. We honor you for all that you have done. You are bigger than any other god. We acknowledge that Jesus is the only son of God, and He was sent to redeem mankind. He paid a debt that we could not pay. Today, we make much of JESUS! There is none before you and will be none after you. We glorify your name that your mercies are new every morning. We give your name praise for your power. We will be nothing without you, Lord. We offer up praise with the fruit of our lips! You and only you are worthy of our full commitment. Thank you for redeeming us, calling us your own, and setting us apart for your glory. We love you, Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
