Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying,‘See, the home of God is among mortals.He will dwell with them;they will be his peoples,and God himself will be with them; he will wipe every tear from their eyes.Death will be no more; mourning and crying and pain will be no more,for the first things have passed away.' And the one who was seated on the throne said, ‘See, I am making all things new.’ Also he said, ‘Write this, for these words are trustworthy and true.’ Then he said to me, ‘It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. (Revelation 21:1-62)
Happy New Year, dear friend!
One of the recommended texts for today is an awesome one, and I use it to simply pray that God grant you a superb and blessed New Year!
God is making all things new. Everything that comes in 2018 is, we pray, a new thing; but we ask that God turn the challenges into opportunities, and the tests into victories.God's home is among us, especially those who love Him. My our thoughts, deeds, and actions reflect those of a bride preparing for her marriage so that when Christ returns for us, we will be ready.
I pray whatever tear came your way in the old year turn into a smile of gratitude for the blessing and lesson it may have become. May our mourning from days past turn into songs of praise for the Lord. May our aches and pains disappear with every prayer we lift up in the Name of Jesus our Lord, Savior and Healer.
And all these things will come to pass if we place Jesus as our Alpha and Omega; may we start and end each new day with Him.
Happy New Year again!
PRAYER: Lord, hear the above as our prayer. I pray all that was shared above be true for this dear reader and their family. In Christ Jesus' precious and powerful name I pray, amen.
Have a great year; blessed by the Lord! And my our actions reflect our deeper and newer relationship with Christ Jesus!
