God’s Truth for Trying Times - 10/7/21

 

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 3:9-10

No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God. By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother. [1 John 3:9-10 ESV] 

  

CONSIDER: God says very clearly that it is very clear who belongs to him. Those who have been regenerated, brought to life by God spiritually, are aware of their sin and they confess their sins and while they do not live a sinless life, they live life wanting not to sin. The one who presently does not care is probably not saved.

 

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?
