Daily Bible Verse: 1 John 2:17 (NLT)
'This world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.'
- We live in a world that is characterised by constant change.
- Our earthly experience is temporary and fleeting.
- What is popular and essential today may well be irrelevant tomorrow.
- But when we do what pleases God, there is an eternal reward in store for us.
Prayer: Lord, help me to keep my eyes fixed on You. May I not be influenced and drawn away from You by things that are temporary and fading away. I choose to do what pleases You. Amen.
Daily Bible Verse: 1 John 2:17 (NLT)
'This world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.'
Daily Bible Verse: Hebrews 6:19a
'We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.'
NEVER IS A LONG TIME
Never is an exceedingly long time. Never is not only for your lifetime. Our time reference in life is our lifetimes. For some people it is about 70 or maybe 80 years. That is the length of the concept of 'never' for us humans. But 'never' to God is eternal, it has no end. Even beyond your physical lifetime, God will not forget you.
Isaiah 49:14-16Yet they say, 'My Lord deserted us; He has forgotten us.' 'Never! I will not forget you.'
If God will not forget us through all eternity, why will He forget us during this short earthly experience?
HE WILL NOT FORGET US BECAUSE HE LOVES US
It is because of the fact that the Lord loves us dearly that He will not forget us.
Deuteronomy 4:31'For the Lord your God is merciful - He will not abandon you nor destroy you nor forget the promises He has made to your ancestors.'
God intends to remember us and come through for us. He is a merciful loving God.
John 3:16'For God loved the world so much that He gave His only Son so that anyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.'
God loves us and that is why He made a way for us to connect to Him through Jesus Christ. I am here to tell you that God loves you and He has NOT forgotten you, AT ALL.
