Today's Verse: John 5:25

Wednesday, May 25, 2016

I tell you the truth, a time is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live.
— John 5:25

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Aren't you glad that not even death can stop us from hearing Jesus' promised words to us: "RISE!"? We will hear his voice and live with him forever. That sure puts a lift in my future plans; what about you?

My Prayer...

Thank you, Almighty God, that Jesus' resurrection demonstrated your power to destroy death. I have confidence in your Son's promises to return, to raise me from the dead if I die before his return, and to take me home to be with you. In the Savior's name. Amen.
