April 4, 2019 - TRULY ONE OF A KIND

Day 94 - (Today’s Bible readings: 2 Samuel 20; Psalm 89; Hebrews 1:8-14)

“Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.” (Hebrews 1:1-3 ESV) 

Jesus is truly one of a kind! 

● He speaks to us through the Word of God. 
● He participated in the Creation of the world.
● He is the radiance of the glory of God because He IS God!
● He is the all-powerful Word (John 1:1ff).
● He made purification for our sins by dying on the cross. 
● He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the Father.

Beautiful Savior, Lord of the nations, 
Son of God and Son of Man!
Glory and honor, Praise adoration 
Now and forevermore be thine!
(Beautiful Savior, Lutheran Service Book, CPH, 2006, # 537 stanza 4)

Thank You, Lord Jesus, for being my Beautiful Savior. You are my everything.  Amen.
