Hebrews 13:8 (NKJV) 8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
God is the same, yesterday, today and forever. He doesn’t change. He is constant and steady.
Malachi 3:6 (NKJV) 6 “For I am the Lord, I do not change…
As we begin the year 2016, the world will put their hopes in a new year. Somehow, over the centuries, we have been convinced that January 1 represents great new opportunities to excel, to prosper, to start fresh in so many areas.
But God says His mercies are new every morning!
Lamentations 3:22-23 (NKJV) 22 Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not. 23 They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.
So we don’t need to wait for or rely on a new year for new opportunities and new reasons to rejoice!
God isn’t affected or contained by a date on a calendar. For Him, a day is like 1000 years and 1000 years is like a day.
So, let’s not put our hopes in a number, 2016, that comes from a manmade calendar, but in the One who created the day and the night, and all that we see!
And let’s give Him thanks as we rise each morning. And ask Him what opportunities He will put in front of us each and every day, to bring glory and honor to His name.
