When God is Forgotten

"Remember now your Creator…”


Ecclesiastes 12:1


Today's Bible Reading: Ecclesiastes 12:1–14.


The book of Ecclesiastes closes with a solemn call to remember God before life slips away. It reminds us that life is brief, judgement is certain, and God must not be forgotten. From this text, three truths stand out clearly.


First: The REJECTION of God - “The fool has said in his heart, ‘There is no God.’” (Psalm 14:1). Man does not naturally remember God—he rejects Him. This is not always open denial, but quiet neglect. God is ignored, left out, and forgotten in daily life.

You may not deny God with your lips, but do you deny Him with your life?


Second: The RECORD before God - “For God will bring every work into judgement, including every secret thing…” (Ecclesiastes 12:14). Man may forget God—but God does not forget man. Every thought, word, and deed is known to Him. Nothing is hidden from His sight. You may have forgotten your sin—but God has not.


Third: The RECKONING with God - “It is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgement.” (Hebrews 9:27). A day is coming when all will give account. The God you forget will one day be faced. There will be no escape, no excuse, and no second opportunity. You can ignore God now—but you cannot avoid Him then.


Remember Him now. Turn to Him. Trust in Christ.


Prayer: Almighty Lord God, forgive me my sin and my forgetfulness of You. Turn my heart to Christ and help me to trust in Him alone. I ask in His name. Amen. Amen.

Noah Believed God

"By faith Noah, . . . prepared an ark.


Hebrews 11:7


Today's Bible Reading: John 1:12–13.


Noah stands as a striking example of true faith. In a world overflowing with sin, he believed God. By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household” (Hebrews 11:7).


His life was markedly different. While the world pursued ungodliness, Noah walked with God. This contrast is not incidental—it is essential. The Christian life is meant to stand apart. Faith is not merely a profession; it produces transformation. It shapes how we speak, how we think, and how we live. As Martyn Lloyd-Jones observed, “the believer is not sinless, but sincere—upright before God. Even when falling into sin, the Christian strives after righteousness. There is a new direction, a new desire, because there is new life.”


This is what John 1:12–13 declares: those who receive Christ are born of God. Faith unites the sinner to Christ, our perfect High Priest (Hebrews 7), who alone can save from the wrath to come.


Like Noah, we must not merely hear God’s warnings—we must heed them. To believe God is to flee to Christ, our true Ark of refuge. In Him alone is safety, and in Him, a life set apart for God.


Prayer: Father God, help me to believe Your Word, flee to Christ, and live a life set apart for You. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Sanctified By The Truth

"Sanctify them by Your truth.

Your word is truth."


John 17:17


Today's Bible Reading: John 17:9-19.


The Lord Jesus Christ, considered Scripture to be the Word of God. As Christians (Christ followers), we believe the same. Today’s verse shows us that Jesus also viewed Scripture as truth. Not a truth. Not one of many truths. But the truth. For that reason, we affirm that the Bible is infallible and inerrant. But what does that mean exactly? It means that it is incapable of being wrong. In 2 Timothy 3:16, the Bible says: All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. 

This verse confirms that Scripture is God-breathed or “inspired.” Because Scripture comes from God and God does not make mistakes, it follows that His Word is without error. God inspired the speech and text of the authors of Scripture which ensured that, despite their humanity, they were kept from making mistakes. In His sovereignty, God made sure the authors wrote what He intended for them to write. They wrote the very truth of God. 



Prayer: Dear Father thank You for revealing Your truth to me through Your Word. As I read the Bible, sanctify me with Your truth. In Your Son's name I pray. Amen
