Then God said,
“Let there be light, and there was light.
And God saw that the light was good.
Then he separated the light from the darkness.
God called the light “day” and the darkness “night.”

Blessings Of The Beginning
In the beginning
God created the heavens and the earth.
The earth was formless and empty,
and darkness covered the deep waters.
and the Spirit of God was hovering
over the surface of the waters.
Blessings of the Bright Morning Star
“I, Jesus, have sent my angel
to give you this message for the churches.
I am both the source of David
and the heir to his throne.
I am the bright morning star.”
Blessings of Completeness
“Look, I am coming soon,
bringing my reward with me
to repay all people according to their deeds.
I am the Alpha and the Omega,
the First and the Last,
the Beginning and the End.”
Blessings of His Name
…the throne of God
and of the Lamb will be there,
and his servants will worship him.
And they will see his face,
and his name will be written on their foreheads.

Blessings Of No More Night
…the city has no need of sun or moon,
for the glory of God illuminates the city,
and the Lamb is its light.
Its gates will never be closed at the end of day
because there is no night there.
Blessings Of Being Thirsty
And the one sitting on the throne said,
“Look, I am making everything new!”…
And he also said,
“It is finished!
I am the Alpha and the Omega—
the Beginning and the End.
To all who are thirsty I will give freely
from the springs of the water of life.

Blessings Of No More Sorrow
“Look, God’s home is now among his people!
He will live with them,
and they will be his people.
God himself will be with them.
He will wipe every tear from their eyes,
and there will be no more death
or sorrow or crying or pain.
All these things are gone forever.”
Revelation 21:3-4

Blessings of Giving Honor
Then I heard again what sounded like the shout
of a vast crowd or the roar of mighty ocean waves
or the crash of loud thunder:
“Praise the Lord!”
For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns.
Let us be glad and rejoice,
and let us give honor to him…
Blessings of Watching
“Look, I will come as unexpectedly as a thief!
Blessed are all who are watching for me…”
Revelation 16:15
