Heaven is a real place—and God’s throne room is, too.
Have you ever wondered what’s actually happening there?
In today’s devotional verses, the Apostle John shows us some of what’s going on there right now:
Do You Pray For Your Children?
For this child I prayed, and the Lord has granted me my petition that I made to him.
1 Samuel 1:27 ESV
When my daughter was born, she got very sick and had to spend a week in the NICU.
My eyes get misty and my chest gets tight even as I write these words, because we almost lost her.
In the hospital, they painted this verse on the wall just above her little bed in the NICU. And oh was it ever true!
We prayed so hard for our little baby, that God would sustain her life and help her heal.
God’s Mission For You Today
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
Ephesians 2:10 ESV
Do you know God has a mission for you today? He has one for me, too.
We are his workmanship—which means he saves us only through his power. This also means we are being changed to become more like Jesus through his power, as well (Rom 8:29).
So, what kind of people do you think God is molding?
