An Unchanging God
You and I are governed. The weather determines what we wear. Gravity dictates our speed and health determines our strength. We may change these forces, alter them slightly, but we never remove them. God is an unchanging God, an uncaused God, and an ungoverned God. He doesn’t check the weather; He makes it. He doesn’t defy gravity; He created it. He isn’t affected by health; He has no body.
Jesus said, “God is spirit.” (John 4:24). Since He has no body, He has no limitations—equally active in Cambodia as He is in Connecticut.
“Where can I go to get away from your Spirit?” asked David. (Psalm 139:7) God–Unchanging. God–Uncaused. God–Ungoverned. Only a fraction of God’s qualities, but aren’t they enough to give you a glimpse of your Father?
Psalm 90:2 says, “Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God!”
