Whom do you say God is?

My friends, according to the bible and my life experiences, I am here to say that, God exists, created us, loves us, is concerned for our being, desires to provide for us, and sent the Son to redeem us.The question of who God is, brings us closer to understanding more of who God really is in His character and His love for us as revealed in the Bible. The Bible teaches us that in all existence, from all eternity, there has been and always will be only one God.  God was never created, is completely loving, completely just, completely holy, completely merciful, and that He desires the best for us.  God is holy and He can have nothing to do with sin as the Bible says, His eyes are too pure to look upon evil (Habakkuk 1:13). This does not mean that God cannot see what someone does that is wrong.  It is a way of describing how holy God is. God cannot sin. He is perfect!
In Christianity, God is a Trinity.  This means that God is three persons, not three gods.  Technically, the doctrine of the Trinity states that in the one God is the person of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.  Each is not the same person as the other; yet there are not three gods but one.  This is similar in analogy to the nature of time.  Time is past, present, and future.  The past is not the same as the present, which is not the same as the future.  But, there are not three times.  There is only one thing called time. Because of the Trinity, God can become flesh in the form of the Son, and still exist in such a way so that He can run the universe.  Therefore, the Son can communicate to us on our level. The following are few scriptures that hints at trinity Matthew 28:19-Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit; 2Corinthians 13:14-May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. The Bible says there is only one God:  "I am the Lord, and there is no other; Besides Me there is no God,"(Isaiah 45:5) Yet, the Bible teaches that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are each called God.
Below are some few scriptures that that I gathered which shows that each of the persons in the Trinity share the same attributes that only God shares.  But remember, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit each have wills, and speak, etc.  Therefore, we say there are three persons.
THE FATHER: 
Philippians 1:2-  May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace.
Isaiah 64:8-  But now, O LORD, You are our Father, We are the clay, and You our potter; And all of us are the work of Your hand.
THE SON:
John 16:30 -  Now we can see that you know all things and that you do not even need to have anyone ask you questions. This makes us believe that you came from God."
John 1:1 -  In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God.
THE HOLY SPIRIT:
Acts 5:3-4 - Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied to men but to God.” 
Job 33:3 -  For the Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

Always be in spirit and remain blessed!

Your destiny is determined by Almighty God!

One thing I’ve learned in my life is that God likes to outdo Himself. His dream for your life is so much bigger than your own. His ways are higher, and He has an appointed time of favor for your life. He is going to take you places that you never thought possible. He is going to open up doors that you never have imagined. He’s going to bring talent out of you that you didn’t even know you had. This is the time to get excited about your future! It’s time to get your hopes up because you have been chosen by the Creator of the universe. Your destiny is not determined by the economy, how you were raised, or your education. Your destiny is determined by Almighty God.
Today, I want to encourage you to set your thoughts on things above. It’s time for you to move up higher to a new level. The good news is that God has already laid out victory before you. I declare that in the days ahead you’re going to stumble into it. Get ready because God is going to raise you up into the life of blessing He has prepared for you!
