Today’s Podcast
- Thanks for joining me today for “A Little Walk with God.” I’m your host Richard Agee.
- It’s not like rotating stock on the shelves. He’s just always there.
- Scripture
- Revelation 1:8
- Jesus: I am the Alpha and Omega, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.
- Devotional
- I was a preacher’s kid growing up.
- Opened the doors for every service
- Got there at least 30 minutes before everyone else was expected to arrive
- Made sure the lights were on, a/c or heating set to the right temperatures, everything ready for the service
- After the service, last to leave
- Cleaned up any papers/bulletins laying around, left on the pews, reset the thermostats to save energy, turned off the lights, locked the door
- First in, last out
- Became a habit not just for church but for a lot of things
- Work
- Meetings
- Social gatherings
- Almost anything that had a start and end time associated with it
- First in and last out became a habit
- Jesus told John He was the first and last, the alpha and omega
- A lot different than my puny experience
- He was around at creation
- He was there before there was a way to schedule anything because He was around before time started
- He has been around every moment from then until now without skipping a nanosecond
- We can’t understand it
- Limited timeframe of our existence can’t wrap our minds around it
- He will also be here when time disappears and all we know transforms into a new heaven and earth
- He will be the omega, the end, the one who is to come
- His is the one with an existence with no beginning and no end
- Because of His infinity in what we think of as time, Jesus can know our how to help us in every circumstance we face
- He is also the Almighty
- He proved it to Abraham
- birth of Isaac
- rescue of Isaac
- He proved it to Moses and the Israelites
- plagues
- exodus
- promised land
- Exile
- He proved it to us
- new covenant
- crucifixion
- resurrection
- pentecost
- I was a preacher’s kid growing up.
