SPIRITUAL DIARY FOR 01/26/2005
My Worship Time Focus: The Theme
Bible Reading &
Meditation Reference: Rev 1:8
Message of the verse: 8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the
ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the
Almighty. (AV) 8 The Master declares, "I’m A to Z. I’m
THE GOD WHO IS, THE GOD WHO WAS, AND THE GOD ABOUT TO ARRIVE. I’m the
Sovereign-Strong." (MESSAGE)
I believe
that this verse is referring to God the Father, however later on there is a
similar verse which does refer to Jesus Christ. John is writing that God is everything that is
needed and that one day He will come and have direct fellowship with His
children. I believe that the only way
that His children can see Him is to be in a glorified state, or otherwise they
would die when they were in God’s presence.
Spiritual meaning for my life today: I believe that verse 8 could be the text for
a whole sermon because there is so much meaning in the statement of being the
“Alpha and Omega,” but one thing that I can get out of this verse is that God
is truly everything that I will ever need or will ever want. It is also true that this is at times
difficult to get into perspective on a daily basis.
The Word of God was a challenge to my heart, and it was also
refreshing to my soul.
My Steps of Faith For
Today: To continue to trust that the
Lord is in control of all of the things that are happening at this job that He
has called me to work at.
