Deuteronomy 28:2

To understand this verse you really need to read Chapter 27 then read the entirety of chapter of 28.

You should never have to chase after anything if God is your provider.

God said if you listen to Him and serve Him, your blessings will chase you down.

God went a little further to even say, blessed is your basket in the store (!).

Stop chasing things, relationships, jobs, and money that is not for you!

This is why you're exhausted, and upset with life.

What God has for you is for YOU! It will either come to YOU, or YOU will be led to it.

Romans 6:5–14

"The devil made you do it?"

Did the devil really take control of your body and make you do something evil? Scripture teaches that while Satan tempts us, he does not force us to sin. We are responsible for the choices we make.

Now consider the opposite. If we are no longer slaves to sin through Christ, why would we continue to let sin control our lives? Instead, we should yield ourselves to the Holy Spirit, who lives within every believer, and allow God to use us for His glory.

Paul reminds us in Romans 6 that sin no longer has dominion over those who belong to Christ. Today, choose to present yourself to God as an instrument of righteousness, knowing that His power is greater than the power of sin.

Off the Pulpit

I'm a big Rocky fan. I've watched every movie, from Rocky to the last Creed film.

One thing I noticed is that every time Rocky tried to retire, someone would call him back because he was the right person for the job.

Too often, as Christians, we think our work is finished when God may just be opening the door to our next assignment.

If God has called you to preach, then preach until He says you're finished. If He has called you to sing, then sing until you have no breath left. If He has called you to lead, then lead faithfully until it's time to pass the baton to the next generation.

Retirement is not ultimately our decision—it's God's. Until then, stay faithful to the calling He has given you.

Prayer for the People

2 Thessalonians 1:11–12

My prayer for you today is that you never grow weary in doing God's work, and that God Himself will comfort and strengthen you in your time of need.

May the Lord carry you through persecution, loneliness, and weakness by His strength and power, enabling you to live a life worthy of His calling.

May He fulfill every good purpose and every act of faith in your life, so that the name of Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and you in Him.

Be blessed from the top of your head to the soles of your feet, knowing that God has you covered and that His grace is sufficient for you.

In Jesus' name, Amen.

Matthew 5:3

Blessed are you who are humble enough to know that you need God in your life. Your reward is the Kingdom of God.

Mark 1:9–13

As I read about Jesus being baptized and then sent into the wilderness, I am reminded of when He washed the disciples' feet and sent them out into the world.

Perhaps this is why some people struggle after the joy of baptism. Baptism is not the end of the journey—it is the beginning. After baptism, we are sent into the wilderness of this world to represent God and shine His light.

Baptism is an outward declaration of giving your life to Christ, but it also symbolizes being cleansed and set apart for God's purposes.

Today, recommit yourself to Christ's mission. Go and make disciples, and continue to be the light God created you to be.

Hebrews 4

How do we live in God's rest?

Computers need rest, vehicles need rest, and our bodies need rest.

Yet with all the demands, worries, and distractions of this world, finding true rest can be difficult.

The good news is that God offers His rest every day and never turns us away.

He is always ready to spend time with us, strengthen us, and help carry our burdens.

Today, make time to rest with God, even if it begins with just 5–10 minutes set aside for Him.

In His presence, you may find the peace and rest your soul has been longing for.

Psalm 15

David asks a question: “Lord, who may dwell in Your tent? Who may live on Your holy mountain?”

Today, we can ask ourselves that same question: “Lord, who can live with You?”

God gives us grace each day to walk in righteousness by humbling ourselves before Him, loving our neighbors, and submitting to His will.

Psalm 15 reminds us that living with God is not just about what we say, but how we live, how we treat others, and how we honor Him daily.

Today, by your actions and the way you live, are you showing that you truly desire to dwell with God?

Deeper Bible Study

I want to share something I learned to help you with your Bible study.

1. Find the trouble in the text.

What sin, problem, difficulty, or brokenness is being addressed?

2). Trouble in the world

Bridge the gap of how that same thing is happening now.

3). God's Grace in the text

How does this point to God's saving work:

*Suffering to save
*Delivering through a representative
*forgiveness while dying
*Restoration
What action is God taking and how do you see Jesus in the same action?

4.God's Action in the World (so, what?)

How do we the church join God in this work?

How do the ways of God, become our response in prayer?

How does this become our challenge and experience with God?

Acts 7:55-60

In many ways, this story looks like Jesus standing before the Pharisees and the crowd that rejected Him.

One powerful part of this passage is that Stephen looks into heaven and sees Jesus standing at the right hand of God.

This is a symbol of Jesus welcoming Stephen for staying faithful, even in suffering.

While people were throwing stones at him, Stephen still prayed for God to forgive them, the same forgiveness Jesus showed on the cross.

Sometimes following Christ means standing alone, but we are not alone.

Will you stand for Christ and show forgiveness, even when others stand against you?
