My Redeemer Liveth

Job 19:25 “For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:”
It is sad to say, but in the world we live in now, it is really easy to forget who God really is. Life takes over, and before we know it our Christian lifestyle doesn’t look so Christ like. With the internet, DVR and all of the new technology that comes out daily, we have to be on guard to not forget. I have said it before, but I still struggle with it; our focus needs to be on Jesus.
Proverbs 3: 5 tells us that we need to “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart;” and verse 6 goes on to say “In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.” These two verses give us two commandments. First we need to trust God with our whole being, every fiber that makes us human. Secondly we need to always acknowledge God in everything that we do. If we do both of those commandments, then God will direct our path.
The one thing that people tend to forget is that “all means all”. There is no mediocrity here; it is 100% or none at all. This is something that all Christians need to strive for. Take a second, sit back, and contemplate how much control God has on your life. I made a commitment to God last night. I have given everything to Him, and will follow His path. Are you willing to let go? I will pray for everyone to be able to give God the control of their lives. Psalm 78:35 says, “And they remembered that God was their rock, and the high God their redeemer.” Lets all remember who God is today, tomorrow and everyday.
