“which God will bring about in his own time—God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honour and might forever. Amen.”
1 Timothy 6:15-16 (NIV)
Paul knows that in order for Timothy to be able to carry out Paul’s charge - to fight the good fight of the faith and to take hold of the eternal life to which Timothy was called – that Timothy would need a proper view, a high view of God. Not only is this a need for Timothy, but a proper view of God is necessary for any person to serve God till the end. Whether the end is today when Jesus comes back or tomorrow when I get hit by a bus- the only way I will be ready to meet God is if I have this view of God that Paul gives Timothy.
So friend does your God have His own time?
is your God blessed?
is your God the only Ruler- King over all kings Lord over all lords?
is my God alone in His immortality?
does my God live in unapproachable light?
does all honour and might belong to my God?
That is a God we can serve- He is a God alone!
