Your Living God Will Spare You From Going Down To The Pit
You, Lord, brought me up from the realm of the dead; you spared me from going down to the pit. Psalm 30:3, NIV Do you know what it feels like to be in the grave? There’s no life, peace, hope, future – there’s nothing there. Everything seems so meaningless. It’s so empty and dark. In the grave, I don’t feel safe. It’s like I’m constantly going through the motions of hopelessness. It feels like everything is about to end. I just can’t imagine how David felt when he was in the realm of the dead and when he was going down to the pit. Perhaps he also felt scared. Perhaps…

Roman 6:23, NIV
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23, NIV We will end up in grave because of the sins that we committed. Sometimes, this is not about physical death, but the moment we sin in the eyes of God, our souls are also dying. Sin is like a great wall that hinders us from connecting to God. It separates us from His presence. But the good news is, God gave us an expensive gift that saved us from eternal condemnation. And it is through our Lord, Jesus Christ. Through His sacrifice on the cross, we are…

Romans 6:11,NIV
In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Romans 6: 11, NIV If you believe that Jesus died and rose in the grave to save you, then you ought to live a new life with Him. You are already dead to sin, just as Jesus died on the cross. Stop living in the darkness. Instead, choose to follow the ways of God. Jesus will lead you to experience the fullness of this life. Stay in His presence and listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit so that you will always be guided. Let the grace that Jesus poured out on the…

John 11: 35, NIV
Jesus wept. John 11:35, NIV Jesus is also a human. He has emotions, and He also feels sad. When his dear friend Lazarus died, Jesus wept and poured out His sadness through His tears. You see, Jesus can absolutely relate to you. If by chance you lose someone you love, then may this shortest verse in the bible remind you that Jesus understands what’s in your heart. He felt the same thing when He lost His friend Lazarus. But the amazing part is, even though He knew that he would still rise from the dead, Jesus still allowed Himself to feel sad. This is a reminder for us that it’s…

Day 345 – James 2:17
In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. James 2:1,NIV Faith is dead if you will not accompany it with actions. So if you wanted to grow in the Lord, then apply what you learned in the Bible and follow the ways of Jesus. Do not just keep everything in your head. What you discovered about God is useless if you will only keep them inside. Instead, try to put them into action, and you will feel more of God’s blessings. He will teach you so many things as long as you are humble enough to follow His instructions. Do it even…
