1 Never Left Alone A Letter from God (God s Essence Righteousness) Revised

2 Dear, (Put in your name.) This is God writing to you. Billions of years ago you were in My plans. I know it is difficult to think that far back, but I want you to know I was thinking of you long, long ago. No one cares for you more than I do! In fact, it is impossible for anyone to care for you as much as I do! I am love! Even when you don t love me, I still love you. There is nothing you can do that stops My loving care for you. I want you to get to know Me as much as you can. I want a personal relationship with you. I want you to know you are safe and secure with Me, and you are never alone! Hebrews 13:5-6 Make sure that your character [lifestyle] is free from the love of money, being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, I WILL NEVER DESERT YOU, NOR WILL I EVER FORSAKE YOU, so that we confidently say, THE LORD IS MY HELPER, I WILL NOT BE AFRAID, WHAT WILL MAN DO TO ME? Page 1

3 I am God and there is no other like Me. I am one God in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. All three persons have the same perfect personality or identical attributes. Each person is: love, truth, can t change, righteousness or goodness, justice, all powerful, everywhere present, all knowing, eternal life or always was and always will be, and sovereignty or top ruler. I have every part of your life covered. You just have to choose my way of thinking and believe what I tell you. Keep seeking Me or learning about Me through the power of the Holy Spirit and the Bible. You will have a peace that no person or thing can give you. You ll be relying on Me, God, the solution to your problems. I am the only one who has the ability to always, lovingly care for you. I will never leave you alone! John 14:26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My [Jesus Christ s] name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you. Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him. Page 2

4 I am sovereign. This means I am the Top Ruler and have authority over all. I rule with perfection. You will not understand why I do some of the things I do. However, since I use my attributes* in making My decisions, you can believe I will do what is best for you. I want the best for you! I will not force you to believe in Me or live in My plan. However, no one gets away with anything, and there will be consequences for your choices: good choices - good consequences, bad choices bad consequences. You have to use your own volition and choose for Me or against Me. However, I am patient. I m always available with open arms. You are never alone. *Sovereignty, justice, righteousness, love, veracity, omniscience, omnipresence, omnipotence, immutability, and eternal life. Deuteronomy 4:39 Know therefore today, and take it to your heart, that the Lord, He is God in heaven above and on the earth below; there is no other. Page 3

5 You are free to live in My plan for your life. God the Son made this possible by His spiritual death on the cross. He paid the price for sin once and for all! The only sin people are judged for is the sin of unbelief in the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior. Since you don t have any righteousness of your own and because I demand perfection, when you believed in Jesus Christ, I credited you with My righteousness! Now you can have fellowship with Me, your totally perfect God. Satan doesn t want you to know this. Satan is a liar. Bible doctrine is a refreshing change from the lies in the cosmic system. You are free to live in My plan for your life because of your faith in Jesus Christ! Romans 4:4-5 Now to the one who works, his wage is not credited as a favor, but as what is due. But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness. Page 4

6 2 Corinthians 5:21 He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. As I said, Jesus Christ paid the price for sin on the cross. When you believed in Jesus Christ as your Savior, you were put in union with Him. I, God, call that your new man. The new man was born at your salvation. It s something you can t see but you can believe it (2 Corinthians 5:17). Since you are in union with Jesus Christ, He becomes your righteousness! Jesus Christ has done for you what you could never do for yourself. You are to live in your new man in Jesus Christ s righteousness or goodness. You are acceptable to Me because of your faith and your union with Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 1:30-31 But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption, so that, just as it is written, LET HIM WHO BOASTS, BOAST IN THE LORD. Page 5

7 Remember to always fall back on My nature. Know that I am perfect righteousness or goodness. I have the right solutions for your problems. Don t let people drag you down! I m at peace with all believers because of Jesus Christ s work on the cross! When you fall down spiritually (sin), acknowledge it, stop it, and turn back to Me. In other words, get up! You ll fall again, but just get back up! What I want is for you to have faith in Me and My plan for your life and to learn about Me. I ve given you everything you need to do this. I don t just sit around and watch you stumble through My predesigned plan for your life. I m completely faithful and available to you. I will never leave you alone. So, you go, (put in your name)! Study My word and get My thinking in your soul. Then you will have what is necessary for My righteousness to work through you. Psalm 119:137 Righteous art Thou, O Lord, and upright are Thy judgments. Page 6

8 Sometimes My decisions may seem unfair to you. You can trust that whatever I allow in your life is based on My righteousness or goodness. And My justice always does what My righteousness demands! My righteousness wants to help you, and I do this with My grace and mercy. I can see all the possibilities that could take place in your life. I know what is best for you. You will eventually see that I was right and just or fair in handling all situations. Again, look at My nature; I can t be unfair! I m in complete control of the universe; nothing is hidden from Me. I have all power and knowledge, and I act with perfect justice. Besides that, I am love! I want a personal, faithful, and loving relationship with you! I ve made it possible so that can happen! 1 Samuel 2:2 There is no one Holy like the Lord, indeed, there is no one besides You, nor is there any rock like our God. 2 Samuel 22:31 As for God, His way is blameless; the word of the Lord is tested; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him. Page 7

9 You will show My righteousness in you by your love, faithfulness, character and integrity toward others. This includes yourself! You will show My righteousness by helping others when they are going through hard times. You won t judge them. If you judge and don t help a person who is caught or trapped in a burden, you are showing your own self-righteousness. If you put yourself down, feel guilty or worthless, you are judging yourself according to the lies of your own self-righteousness. Not fun! You are using human thinking and not My thinking! In both situations, you are in a trap, a human trap. Jesus Christ s work on the cross has set you free to live in My plan. I have given you life so live it! I will never leave you alone! Your faithful, righteous, just, and loving, God 2 Chronicles 19:7 Now then let the fear [respect] of the Lord be upon you; be very careful what you do, for the Lord our God will have no part in unrighteousness, or partiality, or the taking of a bribe. Deuteronomy 31:6 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you. Page 8
