“Our God Remains The Same”
Hebrews 13:6-8

A truly wise person tries to see life from God’s point of view and chooses to live according to His wisdom. Losing sight physically is a serious handicap to be burdened with, but what is detrimental as well is losing sight spiritually, becoming blind to God’s point of view. In life’s journey we all are vulnerable to our own failures and the unfortunate circumstances that hit us head on. Whatever we encounter, God’s point of view remains constant.

A question and a statement

“What can man do to me?” Hebrews 13:6

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” Hebrews 13:8

God Remains the Same in His Plan
Jeremiah 29:1-14 “Until then” situations
•	Get God’s perspective on your situation v.4
•	Get productive where you are  vs. 5-7
•	Do not listen to faithless people  vs. 8-9
•	Listen to God’s voice  vs. 10-14
God is more concerned with our obedience than our comfort. God knows our situation.

Providence “to see before”

“My child, don’t lose sight of good planning and insight. Hang on to them, for they fill you with life and bring you honor and respect.” Proverbs 3:21-22 (NLT)

God Remains the Same in His Purpose
God’s plan depends on seeing and experiencing God’s purpose

“A bruised reed he will not break, a smoldering wick he will not snuff out, He will bring forth justice in His time.” Isaiah 42:3

“Many are the plans in a man’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.” Proverbs 19:21

“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost.” Luke 19:10

John 13:1-17 Jesus was more interested in towels rather than titles.

“I have given you an example to follow. Do as I have done to you.” John 13:15

“You know these things---now do them! That is the path of blessing.” John 13:17

God Remains the Same in His Presence
We have to depend on God’s presence as we continue with God’s purpose and plan.

Exodus 33:12-23 “I can’t go forward without your presence.”

“You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.” Psalm 16:11

“Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto your name: the upright will dwell in your presence.” Psalm 140:13

God’s Presence Provides
•	Comfort in times of despair
•	Satisfaction when everything seems to be going against you
•	Strength to move forward

This “foolish” plan of God is far wiser than the wisest of human plans, and God’s weakness is far stronger than the greatest of human strength…so that no one can ever boast in the presence of God…the person who wishes to boast should only boast in what God has done. 1 Corinthians 1:25-31 (NLT)
