Even in your old age...

Isaiah 46.4. Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you. 5. "To whom will you compare me or count me equal? To whom will you liken me that we may be compared?

6. Some pour out gold from their bags and weigh out silver on the scales; they hire a goldsmith to make it into a god, and they bow down and worship it. 7. They lift it to their shoulders and carry it; they set it up in its place, and there it stands. From that spot it cannot move. Though one cries out to it, it does not answer; it cannot save him from his troubles.

8. "Remember this, fix it in mind, take it to heart, you rebels. 9. Remember the former things, those of long ago; I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me. 10. I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say: My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.

Remember this! Fix it in your mind! Take it to heart…you can take it to the bank – if you can remember anything at all, remember this:

• There is a God in heaven and he knows the end from the beginning
• He knows ‘from ancient times’ to ‘what is still to come’
• His purpose will stand and He will do what He pleases!

So what do you do with that?!

• First, know this: “Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you.”
• I will sustain you and I will rescue you.
• Whom (or what) will you compare to God or count as equal?

If it is financial security or career stability, forget it. You can’t get high enough to be secure and you can’t make enough money to feel safe!

• If it’s not God in whom you trust – you are twisting in the wind.
• You can trust His purposes in your life.
• Commit your way to Him and let Him bring it to pass.
