Scripture: "But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more." Luke 12:48 (KJV) "For verily I say unto you, that many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them." Matthew 13:17 (KJV) Application: In this age, we Christians have been favored to receive incredible enlightenment about God and His plan of salvation. But with such favor comes responsibility. God will have a higher standard of accountability toward those to whom He has given much. All of us who are enlightened to God's Word should use what God has given us to live faithfully, and to help those in need, both spiritually and physically. Prayer: Please use Your Holy Spirit to guide us daily on ways to live faithfully and to help others. Glory to You, dear God. Amen. Scripture: You are to be holy to me because I, the Lord , am holy, and I have set you apart from the nations to be my own. Leviticus 20:26 NIV Application: God choose us from before we were born. We're sanctified and set apart from the world's values. But we are not segregated. We follow our service wherever it leads to God's glory. Prayer: Encourage us to follow our sacred mission, Lord. Amen. Scripture: 'I thank my God in all my remembrance of you, ' Philippians 1:3 Application: Just a brief text may be all that someone needs to be encouraged throughout the day. Prayer: Show me how to encourage someone today, dear Lord, even in the simplest of ways. Amen. |
