“The Anchor in a Changing World”
February 3, 2026
Daily Devotional:
“The Anchor in a Changing World”
Hebrews 13:8
"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."
To exist in a world of "planned obsolescence." Your smartphone will be slow in two years, fashion trends cycle out in months, and even our own tastes and feelings can shift like the wind. Change is the only constant we’re told toexpect.
In the middle of this whirlwind, Hebrews 13:8 drops an anchor. It tells us that while everything else is in flux, the character, power, and love of Jesus Christ are immutable. Yesterday; He is the one who walked on water, healed the broken, and conquered the grave. His track record isproven. Today; He is the same High Priest who intercedes for you right now, in this very minute, with the same compassion He had for the crowds in Galilee. And forever; No matter what the future holds, technologicalshifts, political upheavals, or personal losses, His promises have no expiration date.
Think of a mathematical constant or a physical law. Gravity doesn't take a day off because it's "feeling tired." In an even deeper way, Jesus cannot be anything other than who He is. He is the reliable constant, if He was faithful to your ancestors, He is faithful to you. If He was enough for the early church facing persecution, He is enough for your current stress. His "sameness" isn't a sign of boredom; it's a sign of reliability. You don't have to wonder which version of God you’re going to get today. He doesn't have "off days."
When life feels unpredictable, use the "Yesterday, Today, Forever" framework to re-center. Recall Yesterday by writing down one time in the past where God provided for you or gave you peace. That same God is with you now. Trust that today in acknowledging the specific chaos of today, then say aloud: "Jesus, You are the same today as You were when You calmed the storm." Secure the forever when you worry about next year or the next decade, remind yourself that He is already there.
