Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and His redeemer the LORD of Hosts; I AM the first, and I AM the last; and beside Me there is no GOD. And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for Me, since I appointed the ancient people? and the things that are coming, and shall come, let them shew unto them. Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a GOD beside Me? yea, there is no GOD; I know not any. They that make a graven image are all of them vanity; and their delectable things shall not profit; and they are their own witnesses; they see not, nor know; that they may be ashamed. (Isaiah 44:6-9)
GOD, who has existed from before the beginning is aware of all. Nothing catches Him by surprise. There are no other GODs. He is first, before all things; He is last, will exist when all else is gone. And only those that are truly in Christ by faith in His finished work on the Cross of Calvary will be with Him. His children are safe in His arms. Whether it is the nation of Israel that GOD chose, not because they were the biggest, but because GOD knows the end from the beginning and has had only one plan for Salvation, or His Church, the Body of Christ; GOD protects, cares and secures those that are His . He has watched over Israel throughout History, and is not done with the nation yet. When the time of the Gentiles is done, and the Church is taken out of the way, GOD will once again raise up Israel as the standard bearer for His Word.
But those that oppose GOD, those that are not yet born again, those that have never received Jesus Christ are already guilty before a righteous and holy GOD that must punish sIn. But, GOD is not willing that any should perish but calls everyone everywhere to repent and come to the knowledge of the Truth. The truth that Jesus is GOD, that He became a man, and went willingly to the Cross because He loves you and wants you to be saved. Surrender to Him on His terms and receive a brand new life that is anchored in Christ and a life of discipleship that will last forever.
If your life is truly hid in Christ and you are one of His, proclaim His Gospel to all you meet.
In Christ,
