Today’s Daily Bible Reading is from Revelation 1:8.

“I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty” (Revelation 1:8).

The alpha and the omega are the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet. It means the beginning and the end.

Jesus was from the beginning and He will be with us to the end. Jesus is the second person of the trinity. The trinity consists of God the Father, God the Son, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Jesus is our Lord. He is our Savior. He is our provider. He is our protector.

He knows everything about us. He knows our thoughts. He knows our hurts and our concerns. He knows our successes and our failures. He knows our strengths and our weaknesses. But, He loves us despite our short comings. He is willing to forgive us if we are willing to turn our lives over to Him and accept Him as our Savior.

He “was,” John 1:1 tells us, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” John 1:14, “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”

He “is,” Mark 14:62 says, “And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.”

He “is to come,” Acts 1:11 says, “Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.”

Revelation 21:6 tells us, “And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.” Are you thirsty? Are you seeking Him?

Things to think about:

• What does alpha mean?
• What does omega mean?
• What does Jesus mean when He says, “I am the alpha and omega?”

Prayer of the Day:

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for this Scripture where Jesus says, “I am the alpha and omega.” Help us to honor Him as such. Thank You for the grace You bestowed on us by providing a Savior for us through Your Son, Jesus Christ. Help us to share that grace and mercy with others. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
