1 Never Left Alone A Letter from God Revised In reality, God writes to us through His word, the Bible. I m using this letter form to help to teach you God s personal side.

2 Dear, (Put in your name.) 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 identical attributes; each person is: love, truth, can t change, righteousness (goodness), justice (fairness), all powerful, everywhere present, all knowing, eternal life (always was and always will be), and sovereignty (top ruler). I have every part of your life covered. 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! 2 Corinthians 13:14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all. 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. Page 1

3 I am God. Billions of years ago you were in My plans (Ephesians 1:3-14). 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! (1 John 4:16) 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! Psalm 86:15 But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. 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 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! You have to use your own volition and choose for Me or against Me. No one gets away with anything; I am always just, fair and right. There will be consequences for your choices: good choices - good consequences, bad choices bad consequences. 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 death on the cross. He paid the price for sin once and for all! I demand perfection. Since you don t have any righteousness or goodness of your own, I credited you with My righteousness or goodness when you believed in Jesus Christ! Now you can have fellowship with Me, your totally perfect God. Satan doesn t want you to know this; he is a liar. The Bible, My word, is a refreshing change from the lies of Satan and 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 Him as your Savior, God the Holy Spirit put you in union with Jesus Christ. 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 or your goodness in your new man! 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 in 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! God the Holy Spirit will give you the power! 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; I want you to learn about God the Son, God the Holy Spirit and Me. I ve given you everything you need to do this God the Holy Spirit and the Bible! 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. 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! *God s justice is always right and fair in His relationships with mankind. He treats us all with His righteousness or goodness. No one gets away with anything, and there will be consequences for your choices: good choices - good consequences, bad choices bad consequences. 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, good character and honesty 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. We have given you life so live it! We 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
