SCRIPTURE: Luke (NIV) 21:31 Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that the kingdom of God is near. 32 “I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 33 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
OBSERVATION: In looking around the world, many of the things mentioned in the previous verses are happening now. We can be assured that God’s kingdom is soon to be established on the earth. While earthly and heavenly things come and go, there is one thing that remains — God’s Word.
APPLICATION: The more of God’s Word I have in my heart, the more peace and security I have. The more of God’s Word I have in my mind, the more I understand what is happening around me. The more I put into practice the principles of God’s word, the more stability I have in times of trouble. The more I share God’s Word with those around me, the greater is the effect I have in their lives.
JUST A THOUGHT from the Lord: If you have a Bible and live in an area where many people do not have a Bible, or cannot read, invite some to your home every day or once a week for 30 minutes when you can read from the Bible for them. Ask your pastor for a reading assignment.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, my life is based on Your Word. It is underneath me as a sure foundation. It is in me as the preserver of life. It is easily seen around me in all of Your creation. It is above me shining a light on the path I should take. Thank you for Your Word! Amen
