Attiyq Youm – The Ancient of Days
What do you think about when you hear this name for God – “Ancient of Days”? Isaiah 46:9-10 says, “Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure.” Only God can tell in ancient times the things that are not yet done. Thomas Watson, who was the chairman of IBM, said in 1943, that there’s a world market for maybe five computers. In 1977 Ken Olsen, the founder of Digital Equipment, said, “There’s no reason anyone would want a computer in their home.” It’s comments like these that help us see how foolish we are to think we can know the future. Only God is the Ancient of Days.
Our hevenly Falther, Attiyq Youm-The Ancient of Days, we come to Thee and lay our burdens down and give Thee thanks for Bearing them for us. Amen.
