“There is no one like the God of Israel.
He rides across the heavens to help you,
across the skies in majestic splendor.
The eternal God is your refuge,
and His everlasting arms are under you.
He drives out the enemy before you;
He cries out, ‘Destroy them!” ~ Deuteronomy 33:26-27, NLT
“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” ~ Revelation 1:8, NKJV
“Lord, through all the generations
You have been our home!
Before the mountains were born,
before You gave birth to the earth and the world,
from beginning to end, You are God.” ~ Psalm 90:1-4, NLT
Life Has Been Hard, But You Have Been Faithful
Father, great is Your faithfulness. Your mercy reaches to the heavens and Your love endures forever. You are the eternal God — the same yesterday, today, and forever, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End.
I’m so thankful for Your watchcare. You never sleep, nor slumber. Your eyes roam the earth seeking those who love You who need to be strengthened. That would be me, Lord. I need to be encouraged by You.
Life has been so hard.
Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but You are faithful to deliver us out of them all. This I know, because I have experienced Your faithfulness to deliver. But the onslaught of fiery trials is relentless! Afflictions are coming from without and within. Your children seem to be in constant battles with the evil one who works to distract, divide, disappoint, and deceive us.

Evil has been unleashed in the world to a degree I’ve never seen before! Lord, it’s frightening and disheartening and I don’t like it. But I love You and I trust You, and I know You have a sovereign plan. For You are the eternal God, my refuge in this chaos.
I believe, Lord. Help me with my unbelief as I wait for Your eternal plans to unfold.
You always replace despair with hope.
You give joy for sorrow, and peace for overwhelm.
You, Lord, create beauty from the ashes of our difficult places.
I Belong to the Eternal God
How can I thank You? You deserve all glory, honor, and praise. There is no one like You, O Lord! You ride across the heavens to help me. Underneath are Your everlasting arms. No matter how far I fall into the depths of despair, Your arms are deeper still. You lift me up and carry me out of the deepest pit because You love me. Because You call me Your own.
I belong to the eternal God who will never leave me nor forsake me. Bless You, Lord. I love You.
In the Name of Jesus, I pray,
Amen ~ let it be so
