But the Lord is the only true God.
He is the living God and the everlasting King!
The whole earth trembles at His anger.
The nations cannot stand up to His wrath.” ~ Jeremiah 10:10, NLT
“As the deer longs for streams of water,
so I long for You, O God.
I thirst for God, the living God.
When can I go and stand before Him?” ~ Psalm 42:1-2. NLT
“Lord, You have been our dwelling place in all generations.
Before the mountains were brought forth,
Or ever You had formed the earth and the world,
Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God.” ~ Psalm 90:1-2, NKJV
“For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said:
‘I will dwell in them
And walk among them.
I will be their God,
And they shall be My people.’” ~ 2 Corinthians 6:16, NKJV
I belong to Elohim Chayim, the Living God
Father, You are Elohim Chayim, the Living God, the everlasting One. Before the earth was formed, You were. You are Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End — all-powerful, all-knowing, ever-present.
I find great comfort in this knowledge and I find humble adoration in knowing that You love me, You know my name … You call me daughter. How great is Your love!

You have been our dwelling place through all generations and now we are Yours. Through the Blood of Jesus, You have made us Your temple. You walk with us, and You talk with us — we are Your people, and You are our God.
I need to think on these things more. As darkness permeates the earth and the depravity of mankind becomes more prevalent, it’s easy to become anxious about what’s coming around the corner. But then I remember that You are the Living God — my living God and Savior — and I find peace.
He is not a God that is far off, He is the Living God who is with us
Thank You for Your peace. I find it in You, the one true Living God.
I’m so thankful You are a God that is near. When we grope for You in the darkness, we will find You because You are a God who is not far off. You search our hearts and know our anxious thoughts. You know our going-ins and our coming-outs. Behold, O Lord, You know it all together.

Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in the deepest of valleys, behold, You are there also, for You promise never to leave nor forsake me. You draw near to me in my difficult places and give me strength.
Hallelujah!
The living God makes me brave to face uncertain days
O Lord, I am secure in You, sealed in Your Holy Spirit. Hide me beneath the shadow of Your wings until these calamities pass me by. Your presence — the presence of the one true Living God — makes me brave to face uncertain days. Bless You, Lord. I praise Your holy Name.
In Jesus’s Name, I pray,
Amen ~ let it be so
