God is a Promise-Keeper
From this man’s descendants God has brought to Israel the Savior Jesus, as he promised. Acts 13:23, NIV Paul was preaching about the gospel to the people in Pisidian Antioch. He started by sharing the story of the Israelites and how God gave Him His promise. And it was Jesus, the savior of the world. In Acts 13:23, Paul emphasized that sending Jesus Christ here on earth was a promise fulfilled by God. He gave His only begotten Son to save and set us free. That’s who He is. The Israelites were waiting for the Messiah to come, and it may have taken a long time, but God still fulfilled…

Acts 26:22-24, NIV
But God has helped me to this very day; so I stand here and testify to small and great alike. I am saying nothing beyond what the prophets and Moses said would happen— that the Messiah would suffer and, as the first to rise from the dead, would bring the message of light to his own people and to the Gentiles.” At this point Festus interrupted Paul’s defense. “You are out of your mind, Paul!” he shouted. “Your great learning is driving you insane.” Acts 26: 22-24, NIV Paul was an intelligent person. He knew what was written in the law, and He was even part of the people who…

Acts 3: 19-20, NIV
Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord, and that he may send the Messiah, who has been appointed for you – even Jesus. Acts 3:19-20, NIV Ask God to purify your heart. Go through the process and let Him guide you. Repent and change your ways. Stop following your own will. Turn to Him, and He will be there to guide and lead you. Surrender all your sins to Him and let the precious blood of Jesus wash away the impurities in your heart so that you may be refreshed in His presence. The…

Acts 2: 36, NIV
“Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.” Acts 2: 36, NIV Jesus is our Lord and Messiah. He is the savior of this world. He died to set us free from our sins. He came here on earth to help us see and realize who God is. Jesus showed us what it means to love God. He did everything that the Father asked Him to do so that we may experience eternity with Him. He was crucified, and on the third day, He rose again. And it was written that all who believe in the Son of…

Day 481 – John 3:30
He must become greater; I must become less.” John 3: 30 This is what John said about Jesus. He knew that His purpose here on earth was to prepare the way for the Messiah. He was aware that He was not greater than our Savior. In fact, He must become less so that Jesus will be glorified in His life. Just like John, we are also called to be God’s messenger to those who are lost and broken. We are here to also glorify Jesus in our lives. Let’s always remember what John said. Let’s choose to lift up Jesus despite the things that we’ve been through. Let His light…

Day 477 – John 1: 46
“Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?” Nathanael asked. “Come and see,” said Philip. John 1: 46, NIV Philip extended the good news to Nathanael and told Him that the One Moses wrote about was here, Jesus from Nazareth. And Nathanael wondered if this was true. He didn’t expect that good thing could still happen in Nazareth. Yes, it’s just a small town, and people in the days of Jesus didn’t really expect that God would choose this town as the place where the Messiah would grow. Like Nathanael, we also have this tendency where we tend to underestimate the small things in our lives, thinking that God will no…
