Jesus tells us He is the First and Last, the Beginning and the End.
I wonder who has the first and last word in our lives? Is it the doctor's report, the bank statement, the boss, or maybe the government or even social media? If there's one thing we've seen over the last couple of years, it's that things can change and what people say one minute can be changed overnight!
God is reminding us here that Jesus is the Beginning and the End of everything and if Jesus is the Lord of our lives then He will have the first and last word in our lives too.
What His word says will be final authority in our lives because Jesus is the Word and the Word is Jesus. John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
So if the report we've received says something other than what God has said in His word then we don't need to worry because Jesus' word supersedes every other report or opinion. It has greater authority than every other voice, is more powerful and can change the things we see if we'll trust what He has said. That is good news and we don't need to despair if we've had a bad report.
Thank You Lord Jesus You have the first and last word in every situation. You say we shall live and not die, (Psalm 118:17) that you will satisfy us with long life (Psalm91) and provide all our needs according to your riches in glory and that You are caring for us. You say that no weapon formed against us shall prosper and that because God is for us no one can successfully be against us. Hallelujah.😊
