REVEALING

JEREMIAH 33:9 (NLT)
Then this city will bring me joy, glory, and honor before all the nations of the earth! The people of the world will see all the good I do for my people, and they will tremble with awe at the peace and prosperity I provide for them.

LUKE 2:29-32 (MSG)
God, you can now release your servant;
release me in peace as you promised.
With my own eyes I’ve seen your salvation;
it’s now out in the open for everyone to see:
A God-revealing light to the non-Jewish nations,
and of glory for your people Israel.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Let the whole world see and revel in the generosity of God.

PRAYER
Glorious God, thank you for lifting up the people of the world as you raised Christ from the dead. I don't give you enough credit for the ways that you continue to bless us through him and the gospel. I'm inclined to see myself as the primary character in your story for our time when in fact I'm a minor, yet loved character. Help me keep things in perspective so that I can join you in revealing your light to the world. Amen.
