Matthew 14:33
The disciples finally began to truly understand the nature of this man called Christ. We would think the lesson would not be hard to learn, but it was. It simply took them awhile to really grasp who he was. They did not really get it at first, even though they said that they believed he was the Christ. Isn’t that how we are today? We know that Almighty God can do anything. We know that he can lead in amazing ways and bring about tremendous transformations, and yet we fail to expect it.
Bible Reading: 2 Chronicles 35:1-Ezra 1:11
Scripture Memory: 1 John 3:18 “My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.”
Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for Your amazing work in our lives. We sometimes fail to serve You as we should, and yet You are constantly at work on our behalf. You don’t take a break or sleep, You just keep doing great things. Help us to remember that we will never outdo You. Our service for You is nothing compared to Your love for us. Thank You for Your holiness. Thank You for the righteousness of Your Son, the Lord Jesus. Without the forgiveness that we can have through him, we would go around feeling dirty all the time. May we trust You as we should, for You are trustworthy. Thank You! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
