It Is Done!
Scripture:
5 And the One who sat on the throne announced to His creation, See I am making all things new. Write what you hear and see, for these words are faithful and true. 6 It is done! I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will see to it that the thirsty drink freely from the fountain of the water of life. 7 To the victors will go this inheritance: I will be their God, and they will be My children. 8 It will not be so for the cowards, the faithless, the sacrilegious, the murders, the sexually immoral, the sorcerers, the idolaters, and all those who deal in deception. They will inherit an eternity in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death. (Revelation 21:5-8 The Voice)
What an amazing sight this must have been for John after all of the ugliness he had been shown before! It is done for us as well. Truly God is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end! We can, and will, drink freely from the fountain of the water of life. What an inheritance we have been given to have the Creator God as our Father and to be His children.
Thank You, God, that You are the beginning and the end, and that beyond that You are my Father, and I am Your child. I love You. AMEN
O Lord, You are so good, so ready to forgive, so full of unfailing love for us when we ask for Your help. You are my God always. Psalm 86
