Praise for Today – All I Need

I was reading Kevin DeYoung’s book for children The Biggest Story: How the Snake Crusher Brings Us Back to the Garden this week when I came to a part of the story that made me stop. And I’ve been thinking about it ever since. In the chapter about Abraham, DeYoung explains that God had made a promise to Abraham. DeYoung points out that all Abraham had was God’s promise. Abraham believed the promise, and that’s all he needed.

I stopped right there and thought about how I have this in common with Abraham. I have God’s promise, and this year in this Christmas season, that’s all I need.

Earlier in the week, I received a Christmas card from a long-time friend and was impressed by the verse. I could hear God speaking to my heart as I read it. And I’ve been carrying it around in my heart.  Luke 1:45 “Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill His promises to her.”

And even earlier than that, in November on the plane home from Orlando, I chose a random Psalm Psalm 66 and I could feel God’s love and mercy and reassurance, like He directed me right to that Psalm.

These are moments I have felt close to God. He impressed my heart with Psalm 66 and Luke 1:45, and now this reminder about Abraham.

I’m thinking about this today. God has been reassuring me with His promises. And like Abraham, I believe God’s promises. It’s all I need.

I created this blog to share insights from the Bible on prophetic end-time events. During the last few years, my eyes have been opened to biblical prophecy fulfilling before us. Just as Noah built an ark for troublesome times, God has revealed our ultimate safe place: the Ark of His Covenant. It is a place of absolute safety, final salvation, and intimate union with Jesus Christ. Let's get in the Ark and hang out there together until Jesus comes.
