The Same God

Do you ever find yourself putting God into two different categories?  For instance, “Bible Times” God and “Modern Times” God? I think I sometimes unwittingly do.

I read God’s Word, both Old and New Testaments, and the numerous accounts of miracles, deliverances, provisions, and so forth and I think, “Wow, that’s so cool how God took care of everything!”  

Not that I don’t think God doesn’t still do so with us in this generation, it just sometimes seems different.  Times have changed, but God declares He never changes:

“For I am the Lord, I do not change.” Malachi 3:6

The same God who called Abraham is the same God who calls you and me. The. Same. God.

The same God who fed thousands with only five loaves of bread and two fish is the same God who provides for you and me. The. Same. God.

The same God who saved Daniel from the lions’ den is the same God who protects you and me. The. Same. God.

So what do you find yourself needing from God today? Provision? Protection? Hope? Healing? Whatever your needs, whatever your circumstances, call upon the One who is able to do all things no matter the times. Remembering and believing that, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” Hebrews 13:8
