Remember the Reason

"Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from the ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure" (Isaiah 46:9,10). "And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know Him that is true, and we are in Him that is true, even in His Son, Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life" (1 John 5:20).

Remember the reason we know what is true:
Our God has provided our faith a foundation,
Declaring the things that He formerly knew,
The things not yet done with regard to salvation.

Remember the things that the prophets foretold,
To whom God revealed the end from the start.
Now come and examine their writings of old,
Which God, by His Spirit, could only impart.

Remember the coming of Christ to this earth,
Fulfilling those things that the prophets had said:
The place and the kindred of His humble birth,
His life, death, and rising again from the dead!

O Lord, we give thanks for the clear understanding,
That we may know Christ and receive Him as Lord!
We know You're the true God with proof so demanding,
There's no valid reason Your truth is ignored!
