The Peoples’ God

God is the peoples’ God.

He is not a God of dignitaries, kings and religious institutions that you must belong to or become before you can reach Him. He is a God of the common folk, the ordinaries, like you and me.

He loves to show Himself strong, and how can His strength be best shown except when compared to the weak? God is our, your, my strength-a very present help in time of trouble. And we seem to have a lot of trouble lurking around in our lives sometimes, don’t we?

He is the God of the ordinary people.

He is for the people.

We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

All of us.

All who believe.

Which means:

If you’re ordinary, you qualify—

You qualify for all God has stated in His word.

They shall be My people, and I will be their God. Hebrews 8:11
