Devotion for Friday, May 4, 2018

“He wrought wonders before their fathers in the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan. He divided the sea and caused them to pass through, and He made the waters stand up like a heap.” (Psalm 78:12-13)

The Lord has done many miracles and people still do not believe. Every day He causes the sun to shine and people do not believe. He who made all things and keeps all things in His hands is worthy of all honor and praise. He who is able to accomplish all that He determines is the One to worship, for it is He alone that gives life and is able to fulfill all that He has promised.

Lord, I too look and see, and then ignore all that You have done. There are times I marvel and then go back to things as usual. Help me, O Lord, to see that in You alone do I have my life and my being. Grant that I would forever hold fast to You alone knowing that the promises You have given are more true than anything I see around me. Lead me to praise and honor You above all things.

Lord Jesus, You have come as the ultimate promise. In You there is grace and mercy and a hope that is forever. Guide me, O Lord, into the way You have established that I may now and always live in praise and thankfulness for all that You have accomplished. Guide me today in the way You would have me go and let me see how much Your presence is all around and within me. Amen.
