December 17

Today's Reading

Nahum. When he was given this prophecy, Nineveh was the capital of the vasty Assyrian empire. It seemed unconquerable. The nation of Judah was insignificant. Today, Nineveh is nothing but ruins and Judah/Israel stands as a world leader. God's ways will not be stopped!

Revelation. Much has been put into the order of the events in this chapter. It is possible that, as some interpret, that they signify God's various forms of judgment happening literally and in the sequence in which they are recorded here. It is possible that this is symbolic of the fact that God will ultimately judge our world and bring about its destruction. We will understand it better by and by!

Psalms. Do you think that maybe God wants us to remember that His faithful love endures forever? Hmmmmm.

Proverbs. What a great prayer and a great picture of balance in God's Word.

What speaks to you today?
