God’s Truth for Trying Times - 10/9/21

 

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: 1 John 3:13-14

Do not be surprised, brothers, that the world hates you. We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. Whoever does not love abides in death. [1 John 3:13-14 ESV] 

  

CONSIDER: The Bible makes it very clear that those who truly know Jesus love him and love their family in Christ. If you are a believer in Jesus you should not be surprised that the world hates you. And you should be thankful that God has given you a love for himself and others. Praise God from whom all blessings flow!

 

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?
