SCRIPTURAL TEXT:
And he brought him forth abroad, and said, look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, so shall thy seed be
Gen 15:5
God does not live in time; as a result, He sees the end from the very beginning and knows the outcome of our lives. He thoughts towards us are good, to give us an expected end. Our attitude hence towards whatever state we find ourselves in, should be that of joy knowing our future is already settled.
In our scriptural text, God had told Abraham, “…so shall thy seed be”; pointing his thoughts to the direction of the future. He God spoke to Abraham about his countless children, Abraham was did not yet have even a son, as he could not. However, the Word of God gave Abraham sight. Thus he was not perturbed because he could see the future.
The word of God says the path of the righteous is as a shining light that shines brighter and brighter unto perfection. That refers to you today! What a consolation to know that no matter how your today is, your tomorrow will be better because the Word says so. Halleluyah!
