Dear Blogger
For the past week we have looked at the Lord's Prayer from Matthew 6. Here is the last of this week's devotionals.
PRAISE | ASK | CONFESSION | THANKFULNESS | HOPE
"For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen." Matt 6:12 (In some manuscripts)
... What we hope for the future shapes our experience of the present. If your highest hope is for a beautiful home by the sea, your joy would be in anything that's bringing you closer to that hope. Your fears would be directly related to anything taking you further away from that believed in future.
... A follower of Jesus Christ has an eternal hope that can carry him or her through sickness, poverty, rejection and all other kinds of suffering: an eternal Kingdom of unsurpassable power and completely satisfying glory.
... Are you following Him there?
Prayer: My Father in heaven, I long for my heart to be where my home is - with you. Please help me to see that to put my hope in the fulfilment of your promises is to put my hope in you - the unchanging, never forsaking God who gave His Son to keep his promise of eternal life. Help me to trust in You and to build my life around your Kingdom. Amen.
