Verse: “For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.”
Devotion: Paul makes Jesus’ role in creation clear here. Not only was He present at creation, but it was created through Him and for Him. That means everything exists because of Jesus, with the purpose of glorifying Him. No matter your stature, title, or position—we all exit to glorify Jesus. Sometimes we can think more highly of ourselves than we should. This verse is a humbling reminder that our life is not our own, we were created for a reason. We belong to Jesus.
Prayer: God, be glorified in our words and deeds today. Amen
