The Alpha and The Omega

Some people think there is a debate between the ideas of science and religion, and they say we must accept either Science or Religion.

However, there are many things in the universe that Science and scientists cannot explain. If someone puts his or her confidence in science alone, they are choosing to ignore what is unknown, or believe in an un-supportable hypothesis or theory. How different is that from a Religion?

Christians can believe there is no conflict between Science and Christianity. The things we consider to be scientific facts and principles were created by God. Any true discovery is not in conflict with our belief; it only shows us more about God’s creation.

John writes in Revelations 1:1-2, “This is a revelation from Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants the events that must soon take place. He sent an angel to present this revelation to his servant John, who faithfully reported everything he saw.”

And verse in verse 4 he says, “Grace and peace to you from the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come”

And verse 8, “I am the Alpha and the Omega—the beginning and the end, says the Lord God. “I am the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come—the Almighty One.”

Dear Lord, You are truly awesome. We marvel at the discoveries and mysteries of your creation. Help us take this wonderful science as evidence of your majesty and put our faith, hope and trust in You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

You’ll See It When You Believe It

I am sure you have heard the expression “I’ll believe it when I see it.” That is the opposite of how we need to live as Christians.

The bible tells us is that we have to believe before we can see. We must have faith described in Hebrews 11:1 as, “..confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” or as Hebrews 11:6 says, “..because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” and Psalms 27:13 says, “I would have been without hope if I had not believed that I would see the loving-kindness of the Lord in the land of the living.”

Just like a builder does not start construction until he “believes” he will complete his project and see the result, we need to believe in the promises God gives us, to answer our prayers, protect us, and guide us, and most of all forgive us, while we wait to see the result.

Dear Lord, help us put our confidence in you, and have the strength to believe before we can see. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise

Welcome to the Year of our Lord 2017.

I recently read a book which separated the chapters into three subjects, Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise.

I thought this would be a good way to start our new year, with a few things the Bible says on these subjects.

Healthy, Proverbs 3:8 says, “fear the Lord and turn away from evil. Then you will have healing for your body and strength for your bones.”

Wealthy, Psalm 128:1,2 says, “How joyful are those who fear the Lord— all who follow his ways! You will enjoy the fruit of your labor. How joyful and prosperous you will be!”

Wise, Psalm 111:10 says “The fear of The Lord is the beginning of wisdom”

Dear Lord, help us remember in this New Year to center our lives on You. You are the source of our health, wealth, and wisdom. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

Abundance

If you have read many self-improvement books, you have probably come across a concept that is instrumental in helping achieve earthly success, that being the belief in a world of abundance. The concept is that there is abundance for all who believe it is possible, and that believing in limits to abundance is a self-fulfilling limit on our success.

In a similar way Jesus says in John 10:10, “I have come that they may have life, and have it abundantly.” The Living Bible translation writes it like this, “My purpose is to give life in all its fullness.” Clearly Jesus is talking about more than just our life on earth. We know our entire faith is based on the eternal life we have in Jesus Christ. I think, however, He also intends to bring an abundant life of peace, joy and hope here on earth to those who believe and put their trust in Him.

Dear Lord, thank you for the promise of an abundant life. Help us to truly believe your promise and live our lives expecting and grateful for this abundance. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

It Takes Humility to Learn

Have you ever noticed that it is necessary to have some humility in order to learn something new? If we think we know already, we will not accept what someone else is trying to teach us.

We must accept that we don’t know, in order to learn.

Psalm 25 tells us the same, David says in Psalms 25:8-9 “The Lord is good and does what is right; he shows the proper path to those who go astray. He leads the humble in doing right, teaching them his way.”

Dear Lord, help us have the humility to learn your way. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
