God’s Truth for Trying Times - 9/26/21

 

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 2:12-14 

I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven for his name's sake. I am writing to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, children, because you know the Father. I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one. [1 John 2:12-14 ESV]

  

CONSIDER: It is solely because of the blood of Christ that we overcome the evil one. We know God because God took the initiative to give us new life, to save us, to rescue us from the power of Satan. All praise to the Lord Jesus Christ for his saving power and sustaining grace.

 

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?
