Who Is The Mighty One

“The Mighty One, God, the Lord…”That is the way Psalm 50 begins. There is no mistake about who the Psalmist speaks. He knew exactly who his God was. To most of the people in the world today, God is not the Mighty One. He definitely is not the Lord in their lives. He is not One to be feared. I suppose for the majority of the population he is not One that has anything to do with the way they live.

The psalmist goes on to say of God, “He speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to where it sets. Our God will not be silent; a fire devours before him and around him the tempest rages. He summons the heavens above, and the earth, that he may judge his people.” 50:3-4

If this is so God is not One that we should ignore or be flippant. He is like a devouring fire and a terrible storm that rages. He has the power to summon everyone of us so that he might judge us. And guess what, one day he will do exactly that.

Who is God to you? I can tell you Nancy Pelosi is not God. Donald Trump is not God. These arrogant, young female Congresswomen are nowhere near being the Mighty One, God, the Lord. Not a single person in our nation’s capital is God.  Our hope does not rest on these who are so self centered, anger driven, and are seeking all the glory for themselves. They are just humans like everyone else in the world. They are making the most ungodly decisions which go against everything that God’s people hold sacred. Go ahead and worship these people. Sell your souls to them, and allow them to legislate their evil ways which come straight from the pit of hell. Continue to be fooled and swayed by their promises, and you will face the same judgement as they.

Today people, these people, do not even know the Word of the Lord. They laugh and scoff at those of us who speak His word, yet they have no idea what is between the covers of the inspired holy word of God. When the Mighty One, God, the Lord speaks they do not fear him, because the one god they know, their lord, is the only one they listen to. They listen only to themselves.

Now before you assume which political faction God sits on his throne and applauds, let me tell you what I think. He applauds neither. God applauds only those people who know him as the Mighty One, God, the Lord. He applauds only those who worship his Son, Jesus Christ.
