God’s Truth for Trying Times - 10/4/20

We need God’s truth in trying times. Read the Scripture passage, think about what it is saying, then pray; by yourself or with your household. Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly (Col. 3:16).

READ: ‬Romans‬ ‭11:33-36‬

“Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways! "For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been his counselor?" "Or who has given a gift to him that he might be repaid?" For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen.”
‭‭(Romans‬ ‭11:33-36‬)

CONSIDER: How dependent on God are we? Just read these verses and the answer is: absolutely dependent. There is not one part of our life that is not dependent on God. In him we live, and move, and have our being. What great confidence to know, and what assurance, and increased dependence, when we acknowledge these truths.

THINK: What does this declare about God? What are God’s people being called to do? What assurance is given? How does the Word of God transform our hearts and lives and relationships?
