Lord's Prayer, Modernized

Our Father in Heaven, holy is Your name.
Your kingdom come, May Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven
Please give us today our spiritual and physical food.
Please forgive our sins, help us to forgive those who sin against us.
Help us not to yield to temptation, and save us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom, and the power and the glory, for ever.
Amen.

Creator of the Heavens

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God, and all things were created through Him and nothing was made without Him.

By faith we understand that the world was created by the Word of God, so that what is seen was made of things which cannot be seen.

Scoffers deliberately ignore this fact: that by the Word of God the heavens existed long ago. Since earliest times men have seen God's Creation and have known of His existence and great eternal power. So they will have no excuse for saying, "there is no God".

For in these last days God speaks to us by His Son....through Whom He created the world!

[The Hands that sustain the worlds in space, and holds them in their orderly arrangement, are the Hands that were nailed to the cross!]


Look into the heavens! Who created all these stars and planets? He creates them in number calling each one by its own name. By His great might and strong power not one strays or is lost.

Why do you say that the Lord God does not see your troubles and is not being fair? Don't you know? Haven't you heard?! The everlasting God, the Creator of the Universe, never grows faint or tired. No one can fathom His understanding.

[Remember how He cares for the stars? He loves you even more!]


The above quotes are from these Scriptures: John 1:1-4/ Colossians 1:16/ Hebrews 11:3/ Genesis 2:3/ Nehemiah 9:6/ Psalms 33:8-9; 95:6; 148:3-5/ Acts 17:30-31/ Hebrews 1:2/ Isaiah 40:26-28

Open the Windows of the Soul

God is inviting us to close the windows of the soul earthward and open them Heavenward, that He may flood our hearts with the glory, which is shining across the threshold of Heaven.

Nothing to Fear

Let us look to the monumental pillars, reminders of what the Lord has done to comfort us and to save us from the hand of the destroyer. Let us keep fresh in our memory all the tender mercies that God has shown us, the tears He has wiped away, the pains He has soothed, the anxieties removed, the fears dispelled, the wants supplied, the blessings bestowed, thus strengthening ourselves for all that is before us through the remainder of our pilgrimage. Steps to Christ 89 E G White

God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led if they could see the end from the beginning and discern the glory of the purpose, which they were fulfilling as co-workers with Him. Desire of Ages 224
E G White.

We have nothing to fear for the future, except as we shall forget the way the Lord has led us, and His teaching in our past history. Life Sketches 196 E G White
