“The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.” — Isaiah 40:8 (NIV). Almost everything in this world is temporary. It will not withstand the test of time. In this message, Pastor Nate encourages us to be wise and prudent, aware of this fact, and refrain from attaching ourselves to temporal things. Instead, we should stand firm on the word of God alone, as it endures forever. What matters the most in this world and the next are the truths, teachings, instruction, and promises of our omnipotent, omnipresent God that comforts us in times of distress while shielding up from the trials of this world. God’s word stands apart from everything else in this world as a light to the path we should follow in leading a life of righteousness that is pleasing in God’s sight.
