Empowered | June 26th

"The Spirit helps us in our weakness."

Romans 8:26

Beloved, let us be convinced of the promise given to us by our Lord. Jesus told His disciples that the Holy Spirit would come to empower and comfort God's people.

The promise stands true. We should look to the Holy Spirit daily for His assistance. Trusting that in all of our weaknesses, He will make us strong. The Spirit of God is with you today, beloved. You are not alone, and you are dependent upon yourself alone.

The Holy Spirit lives within you, keeping you and strengthening you. The mercy of God is made new, and His grace is sufficient. Therefore, be strong in the Lord and the power of His might.

In Christ Alone,

God is Leading | June 25th

"You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways."

Psalm 139:3

Beloved, what shall we do about the fallibility of our decisions? Every believer should have a firm conviction that the expected end of their life is to live for God and to enjoy fellowship with Him. This conviction should help us in our daily choices, but at the same time, we entrust ourselves to the providence of God.

The only one who knows tomorrow and all the details of our life is the Lord. We do not know all things. We make the best decisions we can prayerfully and with the wisdom from scripture. Let us trust that God is keeping us, directing us, and will help us day to day.

Be not anxious for tomorrow, but trust the Lord. Be at peace in the salvation He alone supplied and that the Lord will continue to watch over your life.

In Christ Alone.

No Longer in the Dark | June 24th

"I have come into the world as light so that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness."

John 12:46

Jesus is the only one who can lead us out of the darkness of sin. We were lost in sin, held captive by the darkness of the ages, and bound in iniquity. Powerless to save ourselves and without hope in this world.

Christ came to us. He came to set the captives free and to liberate us from the power of darkness. We do not fear the enemy of our soul or death any longer.

We are redeemed, and we belong to the kingdom of God. Let us live in full assurance today and walk in the light. The Holy Spirit empowers us and enables us to walk before God without fear.

In Christ Alone.
