A Declaration of Dependence

Today as we celebrate our independence as a nation, I want to celebrate my dependence on God.

Jesus told me that I can do nothing without Him.  (John 15:5)  But He also told me that we will do works greater than those He did, if we believe.  (John 14:12)

He has told me that there’s a secret place where I can find protection from all the things of life that paralyze others with fear—those who don’t believe Him. (Psalm 91)

He has told me that as I am dependent on Him, He will exalt me.  (James 4:10)

He has told me that as I diligently seek Him, He will reward me.  (Hebrews 12:6)

So I make a declaration of my dependence on the Creator, Yahweh, the Lord Jesus Christ, the King of Kings, and the Lord of Lords, the First and the Last.  I am finite, You are Forever, and I humbly believe that you are who you say you are.  (John 14:6)
