Key Verse:

“And he who was seated on the throne said, ‘Behold, I am making all things new.’ Also he said, ‘Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.’”

— Revelation 21:5

Rooted Truth:

God’s restoration doesn’t just patch the broken—it makes all things new, forever.

Faith Story:

Fanny Crosby, blind from infancy, wrote over 8,000 hymns. When asked if she resented her blindness, she replied:

“When I get to heaven, the first face that shall ever gladden my sight will be that of my Savior.”

Her words echo the promise of Revelation 21:5—God will wipe away every tear, heal every wound, and restore what was lost beyond what we can imagine.

Our hope is not only in God restoring pieces of our lives now, but in the ultimate renewal when He makes all things new—hearts, bodies, relationships, and creation itself.

Scripture for Deeper Roots:

Isaiah 65:17 – “For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth…”

2 Corinthians 5:17 – “…if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”

Romans 8:21 – “…creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God.”

Daily Practice:

Spend time imagining eternity with Christ—not in vague terms, but specifically: healed bodies, restored relationships, a renewed earth. Let that vision fuel your hope and endurance today.

Daily Prayer:

Lord, thank You that You are making all things new. Give me hope for the restoration You are working now and the perfect renewal that awaits in eternity with You. Amen.

Deep Reflection:

• How does the promise of eternal restoration bring peace to your present struggles?

• What “new thing” has God already begun in your life?

• How can you live today with eyes fixed on the hope of all things being made new?
