Psalm 16:11
You make known to me the path of life; in Your presence there is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
Have you ever thought, if I get this thing, I’ll be happy? But then when you actually get that thing, it doesn’t make you as happy as you thought. It’s because true joy doesn’t come from what you can accumulate, it comes from knowing the Creator of the Universe has your life in His very capable hands.

Revelation 1:8
I am the Alpha and the Omega, says the LORD God, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.
When you absolutely love a story from a book, you want to meet the author. And if you’ve read the Bible, then you just happen to know the Author of the story of all of history, the One who holds time and eternity in His hands. He’s the One who began the story and He’s the Only One who knows when it’s time for that story to end. And according to the Bible, it should be very soon.

Romans 5:8
But God demonstrated His own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
To understand what the Father’s love looks like, you need to remember that you used to be God’s enemy. You used to be on the wrong side of the war, wearing the enemy’s colors. And Jesus, God’s Son, saw you. And even though He knew everything you ever did, He still walked right up to you during the battle and took the death arrow that was bound for your heart. That’s what the Father’s love looks like. His deep, unconditional love for you.

Galatians 2:20
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself for me.
When you surrendered your life to Christ, that was the day you died. Your old self—your sins, your fears, your past—were, in a sense, nailed to the cross. And this act of surrender now signifies a new beginning where Christ’s life flows through you. It’s no longer just you trying to live this life, it’s Jesus living in you helping you each and every day.

Exodus 3:14
God said to Moses, I AM who I AM. Say this to the people of Israel: I AM has sent me to you.
When God had the opportunity to give Himself a name so that His people would know who He was, He didn’t answer with a typical one. Instead, He answered with His eternal nature. Because He knew if He gave them any name, it would quickly become an idol. So, the name He gave them was infused with who He really was, and is, and always will be… the Great I AM.

Isaiah 46:9
Remember the former things, those of long ago; I am God, and there is no other; I am God and there is none like Me.
There are about 8 billion people in the world, but even if you got to meet each and every one, no one would be like God. He is perfect. And if you forget how incredible He is, just look at His track record. It’s filled with His miraculous provision, unconditional love, and divine forgiveness because He is a God who always keeps His promises.
