Scripture:
“For the Lamb on the throne will be their Shepherd. He will lead them to springs of life-giving water. And God will wipe every tear from their eyes.”” Revelation 7:17 NLT
Observation:
This verse speaks about those who died in the great tribulation, but it also applies to all of us because it describes what heaven will be like. When we arrive there, the Lamb of God will be our Shepherd. He will guide us, lead us, and feed us. He will take us to the springs of life-giving water and will wipe away every tear from our eyes. Being in the care of Jesus will be incredible!
Application:
When we go through trying times on this earth, we as believers can face them because we know that one day everything will turn around. We can be assured that one day we will be in the presence of the Most High and He will wipe away every tear and there will be no more suffering, pain, or death. God will be our shepherd and we will be His sheep. We can look forward with confidence, knowing things get better for us after death, not worse.
Prayer:
Lord God Almighty, You are great and glorious. You are incredible in every way! Help me to keep my focus on eternity and my eyes on You. Empower me to live a life that pleases You and brings Your glory. Show me Your ways and teach me Your paths. I want to live life on earth with You as my shepherd already. I want to drink from the springs of living water every day of my life.
Yours Forever,
Jeff
