Thoughts on Today's Verse...
The clear sign of the Messiah's presence was a time of true blessedness for all who knew and followed him. His actions — his miracles and compassion shared with others — gloriously displayed the anticipated Messiah's coming. If this was true with his first coming to earth, imagine how much more gloriously blessed the Lord's people will be when he returns in his glory! The good news preached by Jesus is the anticipation of even more fantastic news when he returns to take his disciples home to the Father!
My Prayer...
Lord God Almighty, I praise you for the time of blessing that accompanied Jesus' first coming to earth. I anticipate even greater rejoicing at his return and the glorious blessings that await his disciples, my brothers and sisters in Christ, when our Savior returns in glory. In anticipation of that Day, I thank and praise you in the name of Jesus, my Savior, King, Friend, and Lord. Amen.
