Past is done BUT the Future is Forever!
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning... Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the whole world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God... For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—His eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse...Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and His understanding no one can fathom... Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable His judgments, and His paths beyond tracing out! “Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?” “Who has ever given to God, that God should repay them?” For from Him and through Him and for Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever!... Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever... Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD, the LORD himself, is the Rock eternal...I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the LORD God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.”... Lift up your eyes to the heavens, look at the earth beneath; the heavens will vanish like smoke, the earth will wear out like a garment, and its inhabitants die like flies. But My salvation will last forever, My righteousness will never fail.”
John 1:1-2; Psalm 90:2; Romans 1:20; Isaiah 40:28; Romans 11:33-36; Hebrews 13:8; Isaiah 26:4 Revelation 1:8; Isaiah 51:6
and I mean it! Forever yours, Abba
I can just hear our God saying ...
Why do you look back and live your life ruled by ifs and buts? That is done. Yes! Learn the lessons. Apply the lessons to today and your tomorrow but rehashing the past wastes your time and causes you to miss opportunities and enjoy blessings. Instead, My child, be enamored by My future which never ends. The enemy wants to hold you in the past and remind you over and over and over again of mistakes I have long ago forgiven and as a reminder ... “You will tread our sins underfoot and hurl all our iniquities into the depths of the sea.” Micah 7:19 Yes, child, they are long gone. Forward is the direction for you. This forever future is here and now and forever - enjoy!
Your turn ... Repeat, repeat and repeat until the joy of this truth fully permeates your entire being,
“How great is God—beyond our understanding! The number of His years is past finding out.”
Job 36:26
Be still for a while now and pray to Me...
“In the beginning, you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of Your hands. They will perish, but You remain; they will all wear out like a garment. Like clothing, you will change them and they will be discarded. But you remain the same, and Your years will never end.”
Psalm 102:25-27
