GOD

God has a way.

It is not our way.

Change.

Follow God’s way-it is the only way. 

NEVER

NEVER – ISA. 51:6 “MY SALVATION WILL LAST FOREVER”

God speaking: “My salvation will never fail!
It will last forever!”

Are you discouraged?
The world, the flesh and the devil got you down?
Failure has you blue!
Or maybe the government and the people that run it!
Your life is hard and chaos is winning the day!

Stop!  Listen to what Jesus has to say:
Look up at the sky, at the sun, the moon, and the stars!
They operate seemingly without end.
Look at the earth around you, the mountains, rivers and oceans.
They appear to be unchanging.

They are not eternal.
Jesus is coming back.
All that will disappear.
We are here today and gone tomorrow.
All this stuff is temporary.

Jesus says that our salvation will last forever.
That His righteousness will never fail.
We can trust that Jesus will do the right thing,
When no one else does. 
Jesus is faithful and HIS salvation will never end.
