Pastor Bruce's Friday Devotion:

Ephesians 1:3-14 – Inheritance

This text is Paul’s introduction for his letter to the believers in Ephesus. I find it challenging to unpack and to understand because this one long paragraph is so loaded with insights and affirmations about God the Father, about Jesus Christ, and about the Holy Spirit.

One of the truths that the apostle talks about that helps frame the whole passage for me is inheritance, specifically, it is the spiritual inheritance we have from God the Father through faith in Jesus: chosen before the foundation of the world; destined for adoption as His children, redeemed, forgiven, lavished with the riches of God’s grace; destined to have purpose and hope living for Christ; sealed by the Holy Spirit.

That is the inheritance in Christ that we share with the Ephesians. Praise be to you: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit for the spiritual riches you have lavished on me and on us! Amen.

Pastor Bruce's Wednesday Devotion:

Jeremiah 31:7-14 – Satisfied

The prophet speaks hopeful words from the Lord to the Jewish exiles from Judah, looking forward to the coming day when God will act to bring His covenant people back to Zion.

Jeremiah describes the joy and beauty of that time of return vividly. “They shall come and sing aloud on the height of Zion; they shall be radiant over the goodness of the Lord, their life shall become like a watered garden, the young women shall rejoice in the dance; the young men shall be merry…”

The prophet ends with these words that capture my attention: “…and my people shall be satisfied with my bounty, says the Lord.”

In these early days of a new year, Jeremiah’s words reminded me of all the goodness, joy, beauty, and bounty God has lavished on me and on us as a people. But how often am I satisfied in the Lord’s bounty?

Its like there is something ingrained in me from culture or family or whatever to think of being satisfied as almost lazy. My tendency is to keep striving. Teach me, O Lord, to be satisfied in your bounty. Amen.

All of Pastor Bruce's Devotions are posted Monday, Wednesday, and Friday on our Website at: www.BradenRiverPresbyterianChurch.com

Stay Safe and God Bless!

Pastor Bruce's "Devotion" Today:

Hebrews 10:5-10 – Offering

These verses are part of a larger section in Hebrews 10 that talks about Christ’s once for all sacrifice for our sin on the cross.

Our focus text contrasts religiously prescribed sacrifices and offerings that are done repeatedly and often devolve into a rote or ritualistic exercise that loses its meaning and significance.

These kinds of offerings and sacrifices are neither desired nor pleasing to the Lord.

In contrast, Jesus offering His own body on the cross to atone for the sin of humanity for all time is not only pleasing to the Father, it accomplishes God’s will and fulfills His plan.

So, any offering I give is a response to the perfect "offering" and sacrifice Jesus gave for me – His own body and blood. Lord, help me to give my "offerings" of time, talent, and finances in a spirit of profound gratitude and I pray that they would be pleasing in your sight. Amen.
