Before you were born

“I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently find me.”

Psalms 71:6  Upon you I have leaned from before my birth; you are he who took me from my mother’s womb. My praise is continually of you.

Psalms 22:9  Yet you are he who took me from the womb; you made me trust you at my mother’s breasts.  On you was I cast from my birth, and from my mother’s womb you have been my God.

Isaiah 46:3  “Listen to me, O house of Jacob, all the remnant of the house of Israel, who have been borne by me from before your birth, carried from the womb;  even to your old age I am he, and to gray hairs I will carry you. I have made, and I will bear; I will carry and will save.

Psalms 139:15  My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth.  Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.

Isaiah 49:1   Listen to me, O coastlands, and give attention, you peoples from afar. The LORD called me from the womb, from the body of my mother he named my name.

Jeremiah 1:5    “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.”

Galatians 1:15    But when he who had set me apart before I was born, and who called me by his grace,

Don’t these verses just give you more and more understanding and confidence in God.  “Before I was formed”, “in Your book were written, every on of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them”, “even to your old age I am he, and to gray hairs I will carry you. I have made, and I will bear; I will carry and will save”.  It is hard for us to understand, but God is God and before Him is no other.  Scripture says He knows the beginning from the end.  These verses indicate not only does He know it but He is the author of it.  He is the author of the very beginning of our lives.  He gives us free will to choose to humbly serve, honor, follow and obey.  It is no surprise to God the paths we take in either obedience or disobedience.  He has purpose for each of our lives.  Seek Him, praise Him,  and allow Him to lead you through to eternity.
