HOW DO WE KNOW GOD

 

 

In psalm 27:1

The psalmist uses three terms

To REFER to God

 

“The Lord is my LIGHT

And SALVATION

Whom should I fear

The Lord is

MY LIFE’S REFUGE

Of whom

Shall I be afraid”

 

We ALL have problems

In this life

Problems of physical-emotional

And spiritual degrees

 

Yet we KNOW

That the Lord

IS OUR LIGHT

 

“God is LIGHT

IN HIM

There is NO darkness at all

 

IF we

Claim to have fellowship with him

Yet WALK in darkness

We lie

And do not live

BY THE TRUTH”                                                   1 John 1:5-6

 

GOD IS OUR LIGHT

In the pitch black darkness

OF OUR LIVES

One cannot save himself

ONLY GOD CAN SAVE

 

God is our salvation

HE is our deliverer

Again

ONE cannot save himself

ONLY GOD SAVES

 

“IT IS I

Speaking in righteousness

MIGHTY to SAVE”                                                Isaiah 63:1

 

HOW DO WE KNOW GOD

 

He is OUR REFUGE

He is OUR safety net

He catches us

WHEN we fall

 

He is WHO

He is WHERE

We can look

FOR PROTECTION

 

“God is OUR REFUGE

An EVER-PRESENT HELP in trouble”                            Psalm 46:1

 

“I will say of the Lord

‘HE is my REFUGE and my fortress

MY GOD-in WHOM I TRUST”                                          Psalm 91:2

 

HOW do we KNOW GOD

 

He is MY LIGHT

He is MY SALVATION

He is MY REFUGE

 

IN TIMES of trouble

 

He is

The UNPARALLELLED power

He is THE ROCK-the lighthouse

 

Who keeps me

WHO KEEPS ME SAFE
