"Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing."
Isaiah 40:26 (NIV)
Who is this God we worship? What can this God do for us today, who has blessed us in the HEAVENLY REALMS with every spiritual blessing in Christ? He is not a God that is created by men. He is not only the God of the heavens, or only the God of the earth; He is both the God over all the earth and the God over all the HEAVENS. He sits above all creation and He has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing.
I hope that we don’t say the things that Israel said as they complained that God was unaware of what was happening in their lives, and that He didn’t care to help them. The God who has placed His affections on us, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in Christ, who holds us up to His enemies as the example of His wisdom and His glorious grace, is the ONLY True God who cares for each star in the universe. His power is limitless. He never tires. His knowledge is limitless and His grace and mercy abound to us.
Oh friend, the stars hear Him call their name and follow the course He laid for them! Can you hear His voice this day calling you to worship Him? Will you go forth into the path He has laid out for you today, confident in His power and His grace?
