Isaiah 43:11-12 (NIV)
11 I, even I, am the Lord,
and apart from me there is no savior.
12 I have revealed and saved and proclaimed—
I, and not some foreign god among you.
You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord, “that I am God.
and apart from me there is no savior.
12 I have revealed and saved and proclaimed—
I, and not some foreign god among you.
You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord, “that I am God.
1 Peter 2 reminds us that we are here as witnesses to
"declare the praises of him who has called us out of darkness into his
marvelous light." We have seen and experienced God's saving work. We are
recipients of his blessing. We are the people who anticipate his mighty
deliverance yet to come. How can we remain silent? How can we remain bitter,
pessimistic, or discouraged? The God who made the tomb empty and made the
corpse of Jesus our living and exalted Lord is our God. He is mighty to save.
He is our Savior!
Thought for today: Do I elevate God in my life?
