Forever Faithful

“For the word of the Lord is right,

and all His work is done in truth."

Psalm 33:4

Today's Bible Reading: Psalm 33:1-11.

Psalm 33, is an anonymous psalm that praises God and calls listeners to join in the praise (v 1-3). The psalm encourages us to celebrate God’s faithfulness with joyful praises (v 1-3) because “the word of the Lord is right and true” (v 4). Using the world God created as tangible proof of His power and dependability (v 5-7), the psalmist calls on the people of the world to worship Him: “Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him” (v 8).

When plans fail or people let us down, we can be tempted to be disappointed in God. However, we can rely on God’s trustworthiness because His plans “stand firm forever” (v 11) We can praise God, even when things go wrong because our loving Creator sustains everything and everyone. God is forever faithful.

Take a few moments and reflect on how you have experienced God’s character, creation, and love, and give Him praise for all His unfailing love. As the old gospel song says, “Count your many blessings, name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord has done!”

Prayer: Dear God, please remind me of Your past faithfulness as I walk by faith today. In Jesus name. Amen.

Poverty of Soul

“But he did not know . . . "  

Judges 16:20

Today's Bible Reading: Judges 16:18-22.

No one is more pathetic than the one who is in great need and is not aware of it. Remember Samson? Standing there in the valley of Sorek, surrounded by the lords of the Philistines, ”But he did not know that the Lord had departed from him” (Judges 16:20). It has been truly said, “No man is so ignorant as he who knows nothing and knows not that he knows nothing. No man is so sick as he who has a fatal disease and is not aware of it. No man is so poor as he who is destitute, and yet thinks he is rich.” The pitiable thing about the Pharisees was not so much their hypocrisy as it was their utter lack of knowledge of how poor they actually were in the sight of God. There is always something pathetic about a man who thinks he is rich when he is actually poor, who thinks he is good when he is actually vile, who thinks he is educated when he is actually illiterate. No matter who you are, know this; We all need Christ!

Prayer: Might I always remember the poverty of my soul before Your love invaded my life, Lord God, and I came to knew Your Son, as my Saviour. I praise You for that day. In Jesus wonderful name. Amen.

"Maranatha"- The Lord is Coning

Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,

neither have entered into the heart of man,

the things which God has prepared for them that love Him.

2 Corinthians 2:9

Bible Reading: Revelation 21:1-5.

At the close of the Bible we encounter these words, “And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away” (Revelation 21:1). A new world is coming! Each time we pray in the Lord’s Prayer, “Thy kingdom come,” we should remember that that prayer will be answered. Heaven is described as a new creation in which we shall move in new bodies, possessed of new names, singing new songs, living in a new city, by a new form of government, and challenged by new prospects of eternity with social justice for all. The paradise that man lost will be regained, but it will be much more. It will not be the old one repaired, patched up, and made over. When God says, “Behold, I make all things new” (Rev 21:5), the emphasis is on all things. One day we shall live in a brand-new world. Centuries ago the apostles greeted each other with the word, “Maranatha”—the Lord is coming.

Prayer: Use me, Saviour, to hasten Maranatha, as I tell others that they, too, can be made new through Your divine Son. In His name, I pray. Amen.
