One True God

I base my current life and future life on the One True God. There is no other God besides Him. Scriptures from the Old Testament to the New Testament remind us of this vital truth. It is a truth that is empirical to the foundations of our faith. Deuteronomy 4:39 reminds us: "Acknowledge and take to heart this day that the LORD is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other."

Isaiah 45:5 declares: "I am the LORD, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God."

God is a jealous God. He is jealous for our souls and for our lives - He does not want to share our lives, our hearts, our passions with anything or anyone. Exodus 20:5 states, "I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God." Pretty straight-forward declaration, isn't it? 2 Corinthians 11:2 instructs, "I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy."

The Mark Harris song, One True God, reminds of us the sole deity Whom we are to worship and serve. These lyrics remind us of the magnitude of God's power, creation, love, and forgiveness. All other deities pale in comparison. Listen to this song and its vivid reminders to each of us - the children God loves so dearly.
