2 Peter 1:19
“We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts.”
The Bible gives plenty of reasons for bold faith, and topping the list is prophecy. Peter calls it “a sure word,” meaning it’s fixed and certain and won’t fail or waiver. The reliability of God’s prophetic Word inspires tremendous confidence because it reminds us of the knowledge and power of the Sovereign LORD who proclaims it.
“For I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, “My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure.” (Isaiah 46:9-10).
Why does God want us to know that He is ahead of tomorrow’s headlines? It gives us strength and courage to live out our faith in adversity. In these last days, turmoil is on the horizon, and it will shake many to the core, but prophecy reminds us that He is not idly watching history unfold, waiting to see what comes next. He is directing it!
The same God who directs the whole of mankind’s future is also holding yours close to His heart. He knows your every leap forward and step backward. Nothing can thwart His promises from coming to pass. When uncertainty creeps in, and doubt tries to rob your faith, remember to whom you belong—the Lord Almighty, the Alpha and Omega, who knows and indeed is, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last. Powerful. Mighty. Able to do the impossible.
Now go forth in confident assurance and walk with Him.
Awaiting His Return,
