If God Be For Us
Isaiah 44:24-25
24 Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all
things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
25 That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh
their knowledge foolish;
KJV
There is nothing that God does that He does not do well. And everything that God does He does for you and me. It
is a part of the full meaning "that if God be for us who can be against us ". This is just another one of the many
things that God does to see His will come to pass. And it is a prime example of how He always leaves the enemy
speechless, in turmoil, and of course always helpless against who God is for.
It is a time of judgment as well as restoration for Jerusalem. At this particular point He is ready to restore Jerusalem.
There will be times in our lives when God corrects and disciplines us and then restores us. And at that time as well
as with the restoration of Jerusalem there will be people unhappy about it and trying to say about it what should not
be said. And as always there will be those who will try to stop the restoration. They forget themselves or rather they
forget who they are dealing with. God!
Let's begin with verse 24 and the bragging rights of God. And remember bragging rights belong only to the one
who speaks the truth. .
Number one, I am your redeemer. When you were down and almost out I redeemed you I redeemed you because,
what difference does the “because” make? Those things will only cloud your mind at this point and make you think I
redeemed you for some purpose of which I did not. If you must have a because. then I redeemed you because your
mine! Nuff said, I formed you from the womb I have never taken my watchful eye off you. My friend if this is true with
Israel, Gods covenant people. How much more for you and I his blood bought children. Not only have I kept my eye
on you I created everything around you that you can and cannot see and I did it for you. I created, no big bang,
except for the big bang of the little minds exploding that have dared to believe in the big bang. I stretched out the
heavens as a bed sheet and made the earth as it is because that’s just the way I wanted to do it. I am God. I had no
help nor needed any help to do what I have done. And I did it for those who would call me Father and say my
Father did all this for me.
Jeremiah 3:19
19 And I thought how [gloriously and honorably] I would set you among My children and give you a pleasant land, a
goodly heritage, the most beautiful and best [inheritance] among all nations! And I thought you would call Me My
Father and would not turn away from following Me.

Not only did I do all this for those who say I did not, and that I will not restore, let me tell you what else I am going to
do. I am going to break in on the little party of those who have made them selves something by the lies that they
are telling and I am going to mess their little party up. I am going to rain on their parade. They have prided
themselves on telling the future and prophesying what is and is not.
They like being the fortune teller of the day. But when I get through making them look like the liars they are and I
cause everything to be the opposite of what they said it would be they are going to be somewhat mad and some of
them will go mad. But they should not have messed with me and my redeemed. I won't tolerate it .After all I am God
your God who spread out heaven and earth just for you.
