Thoughts on Today's Verse...

God is the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End (Revelation 1:8). This should be a great comfort for us. We don't have to worry about our God leaving us as prey for other gods. We don't have to worry about his truth becoming obsolete or outdated. We don't have to worry about him abandoning us. His love is faithful. He will be with us always. He is always I Am (Exodus 3:13-14), the Lord from first to last. Our end will not be a lasting end, because it will be life with him forever.

My Prayer...

Eternal Father, the great I Am, God of mercy and grace, thank you for your faithfulness. You were faithful to your promises to Israel. You were faithful in your promises to send a Messiah. You are faithful to lead and guide me by your Spirit. You will faithfully bring me into your presence at the return of the Lord Jesus. Thank you for being my stable Rock and Refuge in unstable, transient, and fickle times. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
