Thoughts on Today's Verse...

We are receiving the triumphant and glorious victory of God in his Kingdom. We will join with the angels and the saints of old and live with the Father forever in victorious and never-ending joy. But this Kingdom doesn't just begin when Jesus returns. This Kingdom has started now in his Church, his people, those in whom God's will is cherished and obeyed. So our worship should be filled with awe that the holy God of Israel is also the lowly God in Jesus, who has redeemed us and made us a holy people unto himself. What else can we do but worship with heartfelt thanksgiving and wonder-struck awe? ... (Hebrews 13:1-16).

My Prayer...

Holy and Righteous Father, all things are yours. Thank you for sharing your blessings, promises, hope, and victory with us in Jesus. Please help us, help me, to live a more thankful and victorious life before my unbelieving friends and family as an example, so they may come to share in your glorious Kingdom and ultimate victory. In Jesus' mighty name, I pray. Amen.
