Psalm 86:8
There is none like you among the gods, O Lord, nor are there any works like yours.
When Elijah stood in defiance against the priests of Ahaz, they cried out to their god for a long time with no response. Because what they actually worshipped was wood and stone. Our God is the living God who parted the Red Sea, brought water from the rock, and sacrificed Himself on our behalf on the cross. Truly, there is no god like our God.

Malachi 3:6a
For I the Lord do not change.
When you buy a vehicle, you want it to be reliable. When you have a relationship with someone, you want them to be dependable. And, in this passage, God is telling you, I am both of those things because I don’t ever change. Who I was in the beginning, is who I am now, and it’s also who I will be in the future. So, no matter what changes around you today, and there will be changes, look to the One who has promised He will never change.

Psalm 90:2
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever You had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting, You are God.
Before animals roamed the earth, or plants populated the ground, or even before light was spoken into existence, there, in the empty void, was the triune God. And we were on the tip of His tongue, ready for Him to call us into existence…not because He had to, but because He wanted to. And when heaven and earth pass away, He will create a new heaven and a new earth for us to enjoy with Him once again.

Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
When you read a book, oftentimes it says updated because things have changed since it was written, but that’s not how it works with Jesus. Everything He has given us needs no updating or improving because as the Word of God, He never changes. And the incredible thing is, He never will.

John 1:1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
So many things have changed in our country like prices, pop culture, and politics. Isn’t it so good to know that God never does? His Word has been the same since the beginning and it will continue to remain the same until it’s time for the world to change for the very last time.

Romans 3:23
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
In order for you to go to heaven, you have to be perfect. But the problem is, no matter how hard you try, you fall short. But don’t despair because God knew everyone would fall…all except for One. And His name was Jesus. Not only did He live a perfect life, but He gave everything to do it. And now, when you accept His sacrifice, God sees you as righteous, redeemed, perfect.
