Our God; Not Idols

"Some will say, ‘I belong to the Lord’;
others will call themselves by the name of Jacob;
still others will write on their hand, ‘The Lord’s,’

and will take the name Israel.

“This is what the Lord says—
Israel’s King and Redeemer, the Lord Almighty:
I am the first and I am the last;

apart from me there is no God."

(Isa 44:5-6 NIV)

Herein, we find the promise of God to call people who were not his people. He will save those who belong to Him. He promises to bless them and their descendants, pouring out His Spirit upon them. 

Through the lips of Isaiah, God once again reminds us that He is God. He is the creator of all things. He reminds us again how worthless false idols are. They are fashioned, created, with the minds and hands of mere mortals. How, then can the created create something greater than God who created the world and all that is in it?  It's a puzzle, that man could delude himself so, But, he often does.

Worship the Lord Almighty, our King and Redeemer and only Him!
