God, the Portion of His People (1)

It is the privilege of Christians to say, "For this God is our God for ever and ever! He will be our guide even to the end!" (Psalm 48:14)

The believer is also called an heir of God, which implies that he is entitled, through grace, to all that the Infinite Jehovah possesses, so far as shall be needful to make him completely and eternally happy.

Christians, rejoice that God is yours! All of His glorious attributes and perfections are yours!

His mercy is yours . . .

to save you,

to remove your guilt, and

to sympathize with you in times of distress.

His wisdom is yours . . .

to provide for you,

to counsel you, and

to direct all things for your good.

His omnipotence is yours . . .

to guard and protect you in the hour of danger,

to support you in every conflicting scene, and

to preserve you unto His heavenly kingdom.

His goodness is yours . . .

to supply all your needs,

to enrich you with the best of blessings, and

to grant you unfading happiness in the mansions of glory.

W.Ni.
