Daily Devotional from John 3--Verses 16-17For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.The heavens declare the glory of God (Psalm 19:1), but it is through the Bible that God reveals His love for all...  Read More

Daily Devotional from Proverb 8—Verse 17I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently find me.The narrator of this proverb is “Wisdom”. It is spoken by Wisdom, to us. If we re-write this verse a little more clearly, we get: “Wisdom loves those who love Wisdom. Those who seek Wisdom diligently will find Wisdom.” Isn’t that an amazing thought? Wisdom loves those who love Wisdom. How? It...  Read More

Daily Devotional from John 2--Verses 24-25Jesus did not entrust himself to them… for he knew what was in man. People love you when times are good, but they seem to duck out when times get tough. People can be flighty and undependable. People change their minds and switch loyalties. They bounce from one thing to another. And this can be said of us all. And, as we can see in this passage today, Jesu...  Read More

Daily Devotional from John 1—Verse 48Nathanael said to him, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”Now, we don’t know what was going on with Nathanael when he was under the fig tree. Maybe he was crying out to God, maybe he was worshipping, and maybe he was angry—we will never know. But what stands out to us, and what stood...  Read More

Daily Devotional from Luke 24—Verses 46-49He also said to them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead the third day, and repentance for forgiveness of sins will be proclaimed in his name to all the nations, beginning at Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things. And look, I am sending you what my Father promised. As for you, stay in the city until you are empo...  Read More

Daily Devotional from Luke 23--Verses 18-19Then they all cried out together, “Take [Jesus] away! Release Barabbas to us!”  (He had been thrown into prison for a rebellion that had taken place in the city, and for murder.)This scene always gives me pause. I am struck by the Jews’ hatred toward Jesus. They ask for the release of a rebel and murderer—instead of the release of the *actual* messiah.I c...  Read More

Daily Devotional from Luke 22--Verses 13-15And they went and found it just as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover. And when the hour came, he reclined at table, and the apostles with him. And he said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.”Passover is a Jewish holiday celebrating the departure of the Jewish nation from slavery in Egypt. Specif...  Read More

Daily Devotional from Psalm 113—Verse 4The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens!We’ve probably all heard many of the heart-breaking stories coming out of the Russian-Ukraine war. We’ve seen prices of food, fuel, and imports climb higher and higher each day. We can only imagine how the war will continue to affect third-world nations who already don’t have enough.But don’t...  Read More

Daily Devotional from Luke 21--Verse 4The widow put in all she had to live on. I find it interesting that Jesus would even let her do this. She had nothing and he watched her give even the little she had away. He passively sat there and observed the scene. He didn’t offer any help to the poor woman as she walked away. Now from one perspective that seems a bit callous and insensitive. But from a he...  Read More

Daily Devotional from Luke 20—Verse 26And they were not able in the presence of the people to catch him in what he said, but marveling at his answer they became silent.The scribes were trying to trap Jesus. They hoped that His answer would be enough to give Him up to the governor to be punished. But even they marveled at His wisdom. Throughout Luke 10 we see those jealous and offended by Jesus try...  Read More

Daily Devotional from Luke 19—Verses 38-40“Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!” And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples. He answered, “I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out.”God often uses us to spread His glory and praise him among humankind. We worship God because He...  Read More
