“And there is no God apart from me, a righteous God and a Savior; there is none but me. Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.” Isaiah 45:21b-22 (NIV)
We mention often here that God is the only God and that there are no other god. These days, it is common to try to be inclusive of beliefs that worship other things as god. There is also an effort by others to make it a competition between God and whatever they worship. It was so in the days of the prophet Isaiah as well. The people of Isaiah's time needed to hear a message like this because their neighbors worshiped other things as gods. We also need to hear this message to encourage us. We do have a God who is real. He is the creator God and all things were created by Him and He controls the universe. He is in control of the big things and the smallest details of our lives. He is the only one. Our God is not one we select out of many options for there is none to compare. By his own words He promises that there are none but Him. Today, take that promise and live by it. Trust in the only God and all who trust in Him will be saved.
