Everything can fail but our LORD!

Heb 1:10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:
Heb 1:11 They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;
Heb 1:12 And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.


Have you ever made anything? Stupid question, right? Of course you've made things. You've followed a recipe, you've planted a flower, you've taken a blank piece of paper and drawn on it, you've had an art project in school that you had to create, right? You've taken things and used them to create other things. There are very few people who have never held a crayon and drawn a picture. Even people who live in complete poverty and only have mud puddles to play with end up creating things. A scrap of cloth along with an imagination becomes so much. We know what creation is and we can only grasp minutely that the foundation of this earth we live on was created by our Lord. Scientists and skeptics, the faithless of all walks would have us believe we just are. End of story, we exist and that's that. Sure, let's toy with the idea of mankind transforming from ape creatures over millions and billions of years, and let us entertain the idea of alien creatures planting us here millions of years ago. Let us even imagine that life itself popped into existence in some watery ooze and as a microscopic creature crawled out of that ooze and became a human being over years of transformation. The belief that our world was created by our Lord takes faith. Faith that some call foolishness. Not only did the Lord lay the foundation of earth He laid the foundation of the HEAVENS.


We look at our world and the heavens and believe they are everlasting- barring any unforeseen asteroid, or nuclear war. Yet they aren't. This world is waxing old, wearing out… is it the greenhouse effect? We are calling it that and at the same time denying it. This world can perish, SHALL perish. Whatever the reason behind it all - as we search for reasons so it can be stopped- it will continue to wax old, it will continue to wear out. Sin has degraded not only the people but the world in devastating ways. Only the Lord's mercy has kept this world from being destroyed.


This world and the heavens will wax old, they shall perish, like an old shirt they will be folded up…tossed away…changed! And while this earth is changed, and while the heavens perish, the LORD will NEVER change. The Lord's years will NEVER fail.


Everything we know can disappear and fade away. Everything we believe is tangible all around us can perish, everything! We can't allow ourselves to believe that anything on earth or in the heavens is untouchable by our Lord. So many people like to explain away Biblical miracles by finding supposed scientific reasons for those miracles- anything so that their faith doesn't have to be engaged. Those people will come face to face with our Lord and Savior one day and in that day all their reasoning's will mean nothing.


Can we fix the world? No.
Can we fix the sin problem? No.


Can God fix the world? Yes.
Can God fix the sin problem? Yes.


God can fix the world, and God can fix the sin problem, in fact He has. We know that this world isn't our home, that there will be a new world. We know that God's Son sacrificed Himself so that we would not have to eternally die and sin would not eternally live. We know all this by FAITH! By FAITH in our LORD, in our SAVIOR, our CREATOR!


This world was created, it didn't just happen by chance. This world and the heavens are God's handiwork and there are many, many miraculous, stunning sights on this earth from the tiniest miracle to the largest- all created, not just in existence by happenstance.


Faith.


Heb 1:10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:
Heb 1:11 They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;
Heb 1:12 And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.


EVERYTHING can fail, but our LORD. Nothing is sure but our LORD. In all things, when lives are turned upside-down in a blink of an eye, our LORD is sure.


All praise, all glory, and all honor unto our LORD forever and ever without end!


Amen!
