The Beginning of Jesus

Before Abraham was, I am.
â€”John 8:58

Jesus did not begin in Bethlehem. The Bible says, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Jesus said that He existed before the foundation of the world. He was there when the moon and stars were flung out into space from the Father's flaming fingertips. He was there when God created this planet. He has always existed. He is "from everlasting to everlasting."

Prayer for the day
You, Lord Jesus, who have always existed, came down from heaven in love and saved me from the depths of my sin. In humble adoration I praise You, my Savior and Lord.

HOW PROPHETIC ARE YOUR NAMES?

The name you bear is very important because it serves as your identity and your future may be connected to it. The name a person bears is sometimes indicative of the experiences he or she will encounter in life. Take for instance Moses: this name means "drawn out of water"
