A few years back I read a book of daily devotions by a man named Watchman Nee. All of the entrys in the book were great spiritual entrees, and here is one.
"He said unto me, they are come to pass. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end." Revelation 21:6
"They are come to pass." At long last God's eternal purpose has been realized. How has this happened? Why does the Bible so confidently affirm it? Surely because He is the Alpha and the Omega, the A and the Z, the beginning and the end. God has begun a work, and He will perfect it. He can do no other than finish what He has set His hand to, for it is His very nature to do so. He is not only the beginning, He is also the end. Hallelujah! Our God is the Omega as well as the Alpha. This assures us that nothing that He has begun do do in us will be left unfinished. God cannot be withstood by man's incompetence or by Satan's enmity. Sin is too much for us, but is is not too much for Him. His Name, which is His own nature, is our guarantee that He will see His work in us through to its perfect completion.
