A Short Meditation to Trust God as Your Only Savior from Isaiah 45v21-22

This is Christian Meditation for A Bigger Life – a time for you to relax your body and refocus your mind to experience the reality of God’s presence. I’m Dave Cover. I want to help you with Christian meditation where you can break through all the distractions and experience God’s presence through biblically guided imagination. 

Isaiah 45:21-22 (NIV) 

“Who foretold this long ago, who declared it from the distant past? Was it not I, the LORD? And there is no God apart from me, a righteous God and a Savior; there is none but me. Turn to me and be saved,

all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.”

The idea of all the ends of the Earth is a promise the Bible has been making since its beginning. But it made this promise when God’s people were just 12 nomadic tribes in a small region in the back corners of the Earth. And yet these promises have come true! There are believers in Jesus and every nation to the end of the Earth. Followers of Jesus comprise the single most multiethnic, multicultural, multinational movement in human history! Pew’s most recent data describes Christians explicitly as “the most geographically dispersed” religious group, with roughly 2.3 billion people in the world identifying as Christian. It’s the only religion whose largest blocs of followers are now spread fairly evenly across Africa, Latin America, Europe, North America, and Asia, with no single continent or ethnicity dominating. No other religious movement has such a spread across all continents, languages, and racial groups at this scale.

And God foretold it thousands of years ago! The logic God is using here is if I was foretelling the future truthfully thousands of years ago, and it has come to pass, how much more are my other promises going to come true!
