Matthew 21:45
Notice that no tinge of repentance is intimated here. They finally figured out what he was saying about them, but it meant nothing to their hard, calloused hearts. What a sad commentary on how strongly people may fortify themselves against the truth. They spent much of their time pretending to understand the very Word of God that would condemn them.
Bible Reading: Leviticus 5:1-7:38
Scripture Memory: James 1:19 “Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:”
Prayer: Heavenly Father, You have all of the wisdom that I need. I cannot get around You. You stay ever before me, around me, above me. It is not possible to think beyond You, you always know the answer that I need. You are amazing like that. You know the need that I have better than I do. You know how to meet those needs better. So, You call me to something beyond my needs and wants. You stretch me out. You push me to be more. You help me to grow beyond my selfishness. Oh Father, what could we be without You? There is so much we would miss without the power of Christ and Your Holy Spirit in our lives. Your grace is still making me into something good, something better than I could ever be on my own. You are calling me to recognize Your greatness, Your glory. I will ascribe all glory, honor, blessing, power, and majesty unto You! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
Prayer Requests: Pray for four men who need salvation. Pray for a man in a coma. Pray for a woman with cancer.
