What God is Not

The Bible tells us that. What God is not, what He does not do and above all who exactly is He? Let us have an exalted comprehension of this reality of what He is not, and discover the way in which we may indeed say like Apostle Paul, "that I may know Him" personally and experientially.

God is not dead (Luke 24:5). Of course, He is living. Yes, He is alive. He was, He is and He ever will be.

God does not dwell in temples made with hands (Acts 17:11).

God is not an idol (Acts 17:29).

God is not just a God of some people (Romans 3:29).

God is not like anyone else in the universe (1 Corinthians 8:4).

God is not insufficient. (2 Corinthians 3:5). In fact, we don't need anything more when we have Him.

God is not far from us (Acts 17:27). Neither is He is irrelevant in our situation.

God is not variable, or ever-changing (James 1:17).

God is not unfaithful (2 Timothy 2:13), unreliable, self-contradictory or unlike Himself.

God is not a respecter of persons (Acts 10:34) or partial.

God is not a liar (Malachi 3:6).

God is not the author of confusion (1 Corinthians 14:33).

God is not tempted with sin or evil (James 1:13). On the contrary, He is absolutely holy and righteous.

God is not slack (dull or inactive) concerning his promise (2 Peter 3:9).

God is not morose and boring. He is adventurous. Of course, He has a sense of humor. He even laughs (Psalm 2)

God is not tired (Isaiah 40:28). He ever works. The truth is that He never gives up on anyone.

God is not mocked (Galatians 6:7). Rather, He doesn't fail.

God does not leave us in the midst of difficulties or any place for that matter (Hebrews 13:5)

God does not upbraid, taunt or mock (James 1:5) if someone genuinely comes to Him.

God has a name. He has an identity. Moreover, He has a nature and a character. He is beyond our imagination. He is real. In fact, He really shows up. He is found by those who seek Him. His name is Jesus Christ. Consider Him.

Call upon Him. Trust Him. Him only.

Amen.
