In Perspective

God Is Immutable One of the most comforting truths about God is that He is immutable—He does not change. “For I the Lord do not change; therefore you, O children of Jacob, are not consumed” (Malachi 3:6). In a world where everything is constantly shifting—trends, opinions, emotions, and even relationships—God’s unchanging nature stands as a rock of stability and security.  What It Means That God Is Immutable To say God is immutable means His character, nature, will, and promises never change. He is not subject to time or influenced by circumstances. God does not grow, develop, or improve because He is already perfect. His love is constant, His justice unwavering, His mercy steadfast. “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). This doesn’t mean God is static or lifeless. Rather, His actions are always consistent with His nature.  He may act differently in different situations, but always in harmony with His perfect character.  For example, ...

Do you know what makes Him God? We believe He is God and worship Him as so. But do we know what makes Him God ? What sets the God of the Bible apart that we have chosen to place our faith and worship in Him? This is an important question because our faith is not blind—it is built upon truth, and truth must be understood. Why should we know what makes Him God? This world is all about man knowing himself and living one’s truth. But the created must realise that purpose and satisfaction won’t come just by knowing the self. That comes by knowing one’s Creator, knowing why we were created, and staying connected to the One who powers and sustains our existence. A machine cannot understand itself unless it first knows the intention of its Maker. In the same way, we can only discover the meaning of life by looking to the God who designed life itself. John 17:3 tells us that in knowing God is life, not just for now, but for eternity. "And' this is life eternal, that they might know Yo...

Omnipresence is God's divine quality, where He is present everywhere. He is in all places at all times.   Now, pantheists readily agree that God is everywhere, but their thoughts are a bit different to what we mean here. Pantheism believes that whatever God exists is IN all things. He/she/it is a combination and summation of all substance or forces that is present in the universe. This concept is not what we are understanding here today. When we say that God is omnipresent, we mean that His whole person, i n all His capacity, is totally present, available, and focused on each and every particular place. The Omnipresence of God Means You're Under His Watchful Eye Have you ever burned what you're cooking because you got distracted for a second? Have you lost your child at a shop because you took your eye off the little one because something else caught your eye? Did you miss an important detail because you zoned out of a conversation? God is so unlike us. The omnipresent Fa...

Omniscience is God's unique attribute where He knows all things. Nothing is unknown to our God. And t here is nothing for Him to still discover or learn. Our omniscient God is complete in knowledge and understanding. He was never a newbie or neophyte at anything. He does not need to study or gain experience. God is omniscient. This means He has unlimited understanding and knowledge. God will never run out of knowledge and cool ideas. His ever creative mind is always at work. Whatever He thinks of and do will always be founded on solid, stable, and trustworthy reasoning and planning. His omniscience enables Him to think perfect thoughts and plan perfect plans . God's omniscience allows Him to know the past, present, and future in all their entirety . Just as God knows everything in the past, He equally knows everything that is yet to be. We get to find out every outcome and event as they unfold in the present, but God already knows what's coming and what is to come. We a...

The Aseity of God is Foundational The Aseity of God  is a foundational truth which every Christian must understand about His Creator, Father, and Saviour. Coming from the Latin word which means " from Himself", a seity  is God's unique attribute that means He exists OF and FROM Himself. What the Aseity of God Means God doesn't depend on any outside cause or reason for His existence, purpose, realization, and continuance. He has within Himself His own cause, reason of existence, and ability to exist. God is self-originating. He is self derived. He has absolute self-sufficiency, independence, and autonomy . He does not draw from any other energy. He is not a product of another's creation. He is sufficient in and of Himself. He is i ndependent of anything outside of His being. Our God was NEVER created. And the Creator is self-powering. He doesn't need to be plugged in to something or someone else to continue to exist or fulfil His purposes. He has no need for a...

God is good He is. And after years of living with the COVID-19 pandemic, God's people should even be more convinced about this truth. Bitterness, resentment, and misjudging God are all the wrong ways that people can deal with hardships and pain.  Rather, realising He is good and not evil. Remembering that He is forever good and there is nothing evil in Him. Understanding that whatever we can't comprehend, God remains good. God is good. He is our very strength and refuge in times of trouble. (Nahum 1:7) We experience how true this Scripture verse is whenever we choose to run to Him and trust Him instead of running away and rebelling because of our unpleasant situations. How many times has Christ shown up in the middle of our difficulties?  Think about it. When you accomplish something you didn't think you ever could. When you survive through something that was impossible for you to overcome on your own? That's Philippians 4:13. That is Christ showing up and enabling you,...
