GOD'S DOMINION

1 SAMUEL 2:6 (NLT)
The LORD gives both death and life;
      he brings some down to the grave but raises others up.

REVELATION 1:8 (NLT)
"I am the Alpha and the Omega—the beginning and the end," says the Lord God. "I am the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come—the Almighty One."

SUMMARY SENTENCE
God has the final word.

PRAYER
Eternal Lord, I am awed by your power and dominion over life and creation. I am just a small part of it, yet in your sight, I have purpose and significance -- thank you! Establish your rule and dominion first in my heart, that I may be pleasing to you and a blessing to others. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)

THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
