"Our God is an awesome God,
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom power and love.
Our God is an awesome God!"
We have seen in this past week the glory of the Lord in so many ways. How mightily our Lord works in the lives of those who love and seek Him. We have all had times where we felt we would perish, but even in the direst of circumstances He is always there! It is, especially, in those times we turn to His Word and there we find the assurance of His protection and comfort. Read again Psalm 139! And let me remind you of other verses as follows -- (I know there are many of you who can and have written 'tested and proven' next to some of these verses):
"Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil; for Thou art with me;
Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me." Psalm : 23:4
(Though this Psalm is often read at a funeral service, it is truly a Psalm for the living!) 
"And the Lord is the one who goes ahead of you; He will be with you. He will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear, or be dismayed." Deuteronomy 31:8
"The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him,
And rescues them." Psalm 34:7
"He will cover you with His pinions,
And under His wings you may seek refuge;
His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark." Psalm 91:4
"As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
So the Lord surrounds His people
From this time forth and forever." Psalm 125:2
"Do not fear, for I am with you;
Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you, surely I will help you,
Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:10
(When the Word says, 'Do not fear' or 'do not be anxious' these are not suggestions, but commands!)
"...Do not fear for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by name you are Mine!" Isaiah 43:1
"...For He Himself has said, 'I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you,' so that we confidently say, 'The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid. What shall man do to me?'" Hebrews 13:5-6
What assurance!!! Therefore, we are confident of Romans 8:28-29,
"And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be come conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the first-born among many brethren."
All those circumstances and dealings of God are for that purpose, to conform us to the image of Christ Jesus. He is the One who is at work in us! And through it all our loving Lord is right there with us. Our Lord reigns.
So we sing:
"All heaven declares that glory of the risen Lord.
Who can compare with the beauty of the Lord?
Forever You will be the Lamb upon the throne,
I gladly bow my knee and worship You alone."
Thank You most gracious Father, Lord Jesus, and Holy Spirit. We love and adore You and give you honor and praise. Amen
