MADE BY THE HAND OF GOD

For all those things My hand has made, and all those things exist,” says the Lord. “But on this one will I look: on him who is poor and of a contrite spirit, and who trembles at My word.
Isaiah 66.2
In the previous message, we learned how great God is, and man cannot measure Him. We also understood that everything that exists will be discovered and what will remain for Him to show us in Heaven exists within Him. This is the Lord we have as our Father, for having made us in His image and likeness (Genesis 1:26,27). He is the “Maker” of everything, from beginning to end (Jeremiah 10:16).
The Almighty's capacity is infinite! He made the galaxies and placed boundaries between them. Perfection is God's way of working in all His work. That's why we must believe that our salvation, bought with the price of Jesus' blood, is capable of cleansing us from sin, restoring us to give the Lord the same joy felt when seeing a life transformed. God is too good!
Through the prophet Isaiah, the Lord repeated: For all those things My hand has made, and all those things exist,” This emphasis reinforces the completeness of His plan. As we are reconnected to God through Christ's sacrifice, we believe that the Bible is right when it says: There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. (Romans 8.1).
Among billions of people in the world, who will the Lord look at or demonstrate His power to? Why should anyone deserve His merciful and saving gaze, if many are going beyond what is allowed, contrary to His Word? We are chosen because we listen to the Truth, which has been placed above anything or event in the Name of the Lord (Psalm 138.2). Considering God's Word as our greatest treasure is wise and pleases Him!
The Most High acts differently from men. Some people even idolize those who become experts at what they do. God, however, looks at the poor, who live without knowing the good of this earth (Isaiah 1.19), and at those who have a broken spirit (Matthew 5.3), who count on God's mercy to help them. It doesn't matter how you lived before you heard the Gospel; if you believe it, you will be invited and accepted by the Father.
Some saved people don't pay enough attention to God and allow themselves to be taken in by the lie of the enemy, who convinces them that they are not important to the Lord. Such people do not tremble at the biblical records that show their position before the heavenly Father (Romans 8:15-17). Now, if nothing else takes us away from the most holy presence, why don't we enter the sanctuary in order to receive forgiveness and, as a consequence, the wonderful divine blessings (Hebrews 10:19-23). Believe in Him and live!
We need to tremble with respect and joy before the One who made everything for us, living as if we had never been separated from Him. We are in the image and likeness of the Creator, bought and sanctified in the blood of Jesus to minister, day and night, as His holy priests (Revelation 5.9,10).
In Christ, with love,

Today's Prayer
Lord, our Creator! It is good to hear Your Word that undoes Satan's lies among Your people. We are saved by grace and cleansed by the blood of Jesus shed in our place. We no longer have anything to do with the devil!
Why do we not dare to enter the Holy of Holies if we no longer have the seed and stain of sin in us? Father, as beloved children, just like Moses, we dare to speak to You face to face. We must exercise our right as children.
We are the poor and broken-hearted whom You sought out on the precipices of the world. You did so because You love us, and so, based on Your Word, we have decided to live under Your mantle of love and power. We thank You for the salvation accomplished by Christ on the rugged cross!
