Description
When we look for answers to life's complexities and perplexities, it seems the search sometimes brings up too much or not enough information. Being able to focus on one subject at a time and to see it from three or more angles is the theme of these daily devotions.
What is written is pure scripture from the Bible without a lot of opinion, inference, or argument. The three or more verses under each heading are intended to give the reader God's thoughts only. The chapter and verses are included so one can confirm accuracy (Acts 17:11), check context, or look at them from their own favorite version.
What was written in the Word is for our benefit. God's ways truly work, and what He expects of us is not grievous to bear. Applying biblical principles to our lives puts our proverbial houses [our lives] on a foundation of rock, where neither storm nor wind can move it. So it follows that in all our ways we should consult and acknowledge Him.
"Who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy" (1 Peter 2:10) is a little bit of Scripture rich in encouragement and assurance. This verse is speaking to those who have came to a godly sorrow for wrong doing and being obstinate toward God [sin], which caused them to turn away from it [repent]. They have put their trust in (Jesus) Christ's claims of being the sinless Son of God, that the precious sin cleansing blood of His death on the cross and resurrection [that God raised Jesus from the dead, being seated at His right hand] has bought them eternal salvation. They have confessed with their mouth [acknowledged to others] that they have accepted Jesus to be Lord of their lives (Romans 10:9-10), so as to receive the righteousness of God [right standing with God, that brings peace with Him], which is through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe (Romans 3:22). It is a sample of our being able to cast our cares upon God, so He can perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle us (1 Peter 5:10), as we cherish and embrace His Word.
All the hope, correction, love, grace, encouragement, help and assurance God wants to give can be anyone's by asking Jesus into their heart. This rich everlasting relationship even with its troubles and persecutions is truly the most important, best and abundantly blessed that any and all of us can enter into!
