Jesus: The Same Yesterday, Today and Forever
yesterday, today, and forever.
Just as Jesus was present in New Testament times to lead His disciples, so He is ready to guide you today. Jesus is the Beginning and the End, so He’ll not lead you for a little while and then forsake you. He dealt with fearful disciples when they faced a storm, so He can give you peace. He helped Joshua face the obstacles of Jericho, so He can pull down barriers in your life. He saw the world reject the preaching of Noah, so He can send an ark of safety when judgment floods come. Yesterday is gone, and you can do nothing about it. Tomorrow is not here, and most people fear the future. But you can do something about today. Will you live for Jesus today?
Lord, I put the past under Your blood, so forgive all my debts. I commit my future to You. Give me courage to face what is coming. Today I will do Your will.
The best thing you can do today is to find the heart of Jesus, who is the Same Yesterday, Today and Forever, and trust Him. It’s good for you to know what Jesus has done in the past; that’s a basis to guide today’s activity. But don’t love Jesus just for what He did for you in the past; love Him for who He is today. Jesus is the eternal God who is near you to help you.
Lord, I know You can do the same things today that You did in the past. Help me today. Prepare me for tomorrow. Amen.
