“For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails; for their tails are like serpents and have heads, and with them they do harm” (Revelation 9:19).
The Lord will touch us in ways we may not imagine. If we knew all things, but did not have love, what would it avail us? Many in this age know many things, but they are filled with hatred and anger. What should we do with these things? We are to look to the One who made us and know that He will cause what He purposes to come about in due time. Out of the mouth comes curses and without a thought, the wicked slay.
Lord, there are many things that I do not understand. I try to figure things out, but I really cannot figure some things out. Lead me down the road less traveled where I spend more time thinking of You than I do about the wicked in this world. Lead me to know that in You alone is hope and an eternal future. Harm will come throughout this age and I know I am not exempt, but keep me in You no matter what happens.
Lord Jesus, Savior of all who believe, lead me in Your goodness to know that in You alone there is hope. There are things I do not yet understand. You have spoken, but it does not always register. In due time, it will. Rather than stopping when I am stumped, help me to live into the life You have set before me. Guide me along the path of being humble and willing to do all that You give me to do. Amen.
