There Is No Other. Isaiah 46:9-11

God knows the beginning and the end of all things. This includes you, it includes our church, it even includes our country. It doesn't stop there though. God also has a plan and he will carry out that plan. This is good news for those who follow the Lord and are called children of God. This means we have nothing to fear. This means we should not worry about tomorrow. It also means we should purpose our life to be about what God is about. The last thing we want to do is find ourselves working against God. That's a losing battle. Take this verse with you today and let it be your source of strength when you're facing trials, or your source of conviction when you're trying to go your own way.

Isaiah 46:9-11
9Remember the former things of old; for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me,10declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things not yet done, saying, 'My counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my purpose,'11calling a bird of prey from the east, the man of my counsel from a far country. I have spoken, and I will bring it to pass; I have purposed, and I will do it.
