VERSE OF THE DAY

Monday

Isaiah 25:1 O Lord, you are my God; I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness you have done marvelous things, things planned long ago.

God's actions are not reactions to current situations, but part of His long-term plan to bring redemption. Yes, He has done marvelous things: He took the evil intent of a mob who cried "Crucify Him" and turned it into an opportunity to fulfill the prophesies and redeem us. He is perfect in faithfulness and has done marvelous things.

PRAYER …

Holy God, you surprise me with new wonders and new things daily. Yet deep in my heart I know they are not new to You. Thank You for not making life boring or predictable so I might thirst after You, You who are forever fresh, new, exciting, and marvelous. Through my Savior I pray. Amen.
