DAILY DEVOTION - 27 DECEMBER 2019

Good morning. Peace be with you all. Rejoice in the Lord always. "But you must not forget this one thing, dear friends: A day is like a thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand years is like a day. The Lord isn't really being slow about his promise, as some people think. No, he is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent." 2 Peter 3:8-9 NLT. Insight God may have seemed slow to these believers as they faced persecution every day and longed to be delivered. But God is not slow; He just is not on our timetable. Jesus is waiting so that more sinners will repent and turn to Him. Challenge We must not sit and wait for Christ to return, but we should live with the realization that time is short and that we have important work to do. Be ready to meet Christ any time, even today; yet build your life of service to grow yourself and others spiritually for His service and Glory. In Jesus mighty name. Amen.
