There are verses all through the bible that show us the presence of God and when we compare scripture with scripture, we get closer and closer to God and the bible becomes a living book that we can’t put down and can study for the rest of our lives.
Romans 1:20 – For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
Everyone can simply look around at creation and see that there is a creator and it is their choice to accept it or not. When we all stand in front of God, we will answer to him and the non believers will have no excuse for their denial.
1 Corinthians 8:6 – But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
God is a jealous God and there are many times in the bible where people turn from the one true God and go to worship idols. When this happen, it is shortly after that they fall as a people or are defeated in war. All things are of God and all things are by God.
1 John 4:8 – He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
The reason we all have the choice to believe is because God is love and to love in a choice. If we were all forced to love, it could never be true love. If you know love, you know God, If you deny and do not know love, you cannot know God. Why do people deny love?
Hebrews 11:6 – But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Faith if the foundation we rest upon today since we are living in the age of Grace. We believe he is and that he will reward us that seek him. There is a crown of Righteousness given to those that long and seek his return.
2 Timothy 4:8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
Romans 1:18-20 – For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
God reveals himself to the non believers because it is put in them when they are created. They are without excuse, for in each of their own way, God has shown himself to everyone.
John 1:1-2 – In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us. Luke 24:13-15 Jesus walked with two going to Emmaus and verses 25-27 Jesus begins to talk about the scriptures. This is the Word Speaking the Word.
Revelation 4:11 – Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
There was only one that walked the earth that is worthy and that is God that walked in the flesh himself and created all things.
Jeremiah 29:13 – And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
Love comes from the heart and if you seek God which is love, you will find him.
John 3:8 – The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
Romans 1:21 – Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
We should give God all the glory.
John 1:18 – No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
Colossians 1:15 – Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
Psalms 90:2 – Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
Genesis 1:27 – So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
John 3:16-17 – For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
God sends his only Son to be sacrificed for wretched people like you and me. The final sacrifice that took place on that cross at Calvary and when the veil was torn from top to bottom gives us access to the Father in heaven and we should be thanking God everyday for that.
John 20:29 – Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
Many that were there with Jesus had trouble believing and many did not believe, The blessings that we will receive because we believe without seeing are going to be amazing because everything from God is amazing. Just look around.
James 1:17 – Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
Everything is from above and there is no variance. God is the same today, tomorrow, and forever.
Psalms 19:1 – (To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.) The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
Want to see if there is a God? Just go outside and look up.
Job 38:4 – Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.
We should humble ourselves! The creation is perfect and amazing just to think about it with our tiny minds. We have no right to think we can even exalt our selves high enough to say there is no God.
Romans 1:25 – Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
The father of all liars deceives many and they follow him blindly as they fall deep into the darkness and land flat on their backs in the fire.
