Father, I’m so glad we have the quiet of this morning together. Before the day gets rolling and many things and people and noises start overtaking me, I am Yours alone. Bless our time together.

Hebrews 13:20-21 (<<click here)

One of our many shortcomings, Lord, is not truly grasping that You, the almighty Creator of the universe, extend Your might and resources to each and every one of us. We mope around as beggar children as if we have no choice but to go it alone with empty hands and pockets.

We may live that way but reality refuses that lifestyle. Today’s passage is one of many that stands boldly before us proclaiming Your power – being raised from the dead – and how out of Your abundance You wait to equip us with all we need for doing your will.

Lord, we are not paupers; we are children of the King! We are not defenseless before the powers of this world, both seen and unseen, but we are led by a mighty Warrior whom nothing has and nothing ever will defeat. You have conquered sin and death!

May we live our lives in Your power! “All glory to You forever and ever! Amen!”
