"I Will Be Their GOD, And They Shall Be MY People!"

If JEHOVAH is your GOD!
(by James Smith)

"I will be their GOD--

and they shall be MY people!" 
Hebrews 8:10

So has JEHOVAH purposed, 

in reference to those whom HE has 
eternally loved and chosen. All of our 
present and future blessedness is wrapped 
up in this holy and gracious purpose.

If JEHOVAH is your GOD--
then all of HIS glorious attributes
 and perfections are engaged and 
employed for your eternal welfare!
  HIS mercy will supply all of your needs.
  HIS power will conquer all of your foes.
  HIS wisdom will direct all of your ways.
  HIS faithfulness will answer all of your prayers.
  HIS justice will maintain your cause.
  HIS infinite love and mercy will be 
displayed in all of HIS gracious 
dealings with you!

If JEHOVAH is your GOD--
then . . .
  HIS promises are your heritage;
  HIS precepts are your rule;
  HIS doctrines are your present paradise;
  HIS SON is your SAVIOR and KING;
  HIS SPIRIT is your Sanctifier and Tutor; and
  HE HIMSELF is your everlasting portion! 
Psalm 119:57

If JEHOVAH is your GOD--
then HE will freely confer all really 
good things on you at present--
and crown you at last with 
eternal glory! 

HE will . . .
  receive you graciously,
  guide you continually,
  chasten you occasionally,
  and bless you indeed!

If JEHOVAH is your GOD--
then all things are yours--
things present and to come; 
life, death, the world, Heaven--
all are yours!
If JEHOVAH is your GOD--
then HE will consider nothing 
too great to do for you--
and nothing too glorious 
to give to you! 

All the treasures of time, and 
all the resources of eternity--
will, if necessary, be employed 
for your spiritual and eternal benefit! 

You can lack nothing which 
is really for your good.

To have JEHOVAH for your GOD, 
is the highest blessedness and 
honor in the universe!

How blessed is the man--
who has JEHOVAH as his GOD!
