"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty." — Revelation 1:8
From beginning to end, our God is there! What is there for us to fear? What can happen that can change this one undeniable reality? We belong to the God who is always there, who always cares for us, and who will always work to bring us salvation! No matter what happens to us tomorrow, or the next day, or the one after that, our destiny lies with the God who stretches from beginning to end and who secures for us life that never ends.
Are we worried about our weaknesses?
Human weakness is not a liability only because it makes room for the power of God ( 2 Cor 12:10 ).
Weakness facilitates dependence on God, cultivates the appropriation of grace, and ascribes all glory and credit to God ( 2 Cor 12:7-12 ).
For these reasons Paul boasts of his weakness and views it as a sign of true apostleship ( 2 Cor 11:30 ).
God’s Word … Meditate …
. Our safety nets – Luke 6:38
Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”
. For the wind passes over it – Psalm 103:16
the wind blows over it and it is gone,
and its place remembers it no more.
. Of Christ which passes – Ephesians 3:19
and to know this love that surpasses knowledge —that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
. Sacrifice , well pleasing – Philippians 4:18
I have received full payment and have more than enough. I am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent. They are a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.
