GENESIS 9:13 (NLT)
I have placed my rainbow in the clouds. It is the sign of my covenant with you and with all the earth.
2 PETER 3:7 (MSG)
But God has commanded the present heavens and earth to remain...
SUMMARY SENTENCE
God is holding back inevitable judgment because of his faithfulness.
DAILY FODDER
Do you really believe that judgment is inevitable? If so, how does that change the way you approach life?
PRAYER
Faithful God, each time I see a rainbow I'm reminded that you are mercifully holding things together. I confess, though, that between rainbow sightings I can get caught up in the angst of the times. Keep reminding me of your faithfulness. I need to see some visible reminders. Yet, even when the rainbow isn't visible I know that it's there, as are you. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
and we’ll forgive those who wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you will protect us from all forms of evil. Amen.
