Christian Devotional – February 9, 2015
Read Psalm chapter 40 VERSE: Psalm 40:10–I do not hide your righteousness in my heart; I speak of your faithfulness and saving help. I do not conceal your love and your faithfulness from the great assembly. TRUTH: Do we share what God does in our lives with others? This verse reminds us that we should not be hiding the acts of God in our lives, we should be sharing them. The Lord works and moves in our lives and that gives each and every one of us the opportunity to testify and bear witness for what He has done. God is faithful and we are to share our experiences with…

Read Psalm chapter 26 VERSE: Psalm 26:8–Lord, I love the house where you live, the place where your glory dwells. TRUTH: David was referring to the tabernacle where God had bestowed His glory. David loved to go into the house of the Lord to worship. Today, we certainly need to love and enjoy the churches where we gather to worship, but if we’ve repented and turned to God, then His Son Jesus Christ lives in our hearts. Paul says in 1 Corinthians 3:16 that we are God’s temple and the Spirit of God dwells in us. Do we love and respect ourselves as a dwelling place for the glory of…

Read Psalm chapter 9 VERSE: Psalm 9:13-14–Lord, see how my enemies persecute me! Have mercy and lift me up from the gates of death, that I may declare your praises in the gates of daughter Zion, and there rejoice in your salvation. TRUTH: David, like many of us, prayed asking God to save him from troubles and persecution. However, David gave the Lord a specific reason to save him. He asked to be saved so that he could declare the praises of God. Do we ask for God to rescue us from situation? Why? God desire His glory and He does things for His own glory. If He chooses to…

Read Judges chapter 7 VERSE: Judges 7:2–The Lord said to Gideon, “You have too many men. I cannot deliver Midian into their hands, or Israel would boast against me, ‘My own strength has saved me.'” TRUTH: When God gives us a plan, often we get busy trying to figure out a way to see that plan accomplished. However, we must remember that god has not only the goal in mind, but also the means to accomplish that goal. You can be sure that God’s method is designed to bring Him the most glory. As we seek God’s will and God’s plan, we must be mindful of God’s glory. He will…

Read Revelation chapter 21 VERSE: Revelation 21:23–The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light and the Lamb is its lamp. TRUTH: In previous temples and tabernacles, when the glory of God filled them, the people had to leave and couldn’t look at them. However, here in the new temple, people are able to not only look, but enter and share with God and bask in His glory. We will be together with God for all of eternity if we have accepted Him as our Lord and Savior. What a beautiful and glorious day! RESPONSE: Father, Your…

Read Revelation chapter 15 VERSE: Revelation 15:4–“Who will not fear you, Lord, and bring glory to your name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed.” TRUTH: As those saints who have patiently endured the difficulties that God allowed them to go through, they sing a song of praise to God. Al God’s righteous acts have been revealed, so that if there was any doubt about the reason we are to praise God, that will be gone. God is holy and worthy of all the praise. RESPONSE: Father, You alone are worthy and holy. I pray You will…

VERSE: Exodus 24:39–When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the covenant law in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiant because he had spoken with the Lord. TRUTH: When we have spent time with God, there is always evidence of that. For Moses, his face shined with the radiance of God. Does our life shine with the glory of God because we’ve spent so much time with God and are seeking to follow Him in all that we do? Can others tell that we have spent time with the Savior just by looking at our lives? RESPONSE: Father, You are radiant…

VERSE: Jeremiah 14:21–For the sake of your name do not despise us; do not dishonor your glorious throne. Remember your covenant with us and do not break it. TRUTH: Jeremiah is pleading with the Lord for mercy even though the people have been wicked. Why? The Lord has a covenant with the people and He must remember and honor that covenant along with maintaining the glory of His name. Do we focus on the honor and glory due the name of the Lord? Even as God is faithful to His commitment to us, are we faithful to our commitment to Him? Do we appeal to Him for the sake of…

VERSE: Ezekiel 43:2–and saw the glory of the God of Israel coming from the east. His voice was like the roar of rushing waters, and the land was radiant with his glory. TRUTH: Oh, to behold the glory of God as Ezekiel did coming in a rush and filling the land with His glory! The Lord is indeed radiant and His glory is seen throughout the earth. He is mighty and powerful and truly spectacular. Do we stand in awe of the amazing power and glory of God? RESPONSE: Father, I know that I get caught up in the mundane routine of life and do not focus on the fact…

VERSE: Ezekiel 10:4–Then the glory of the Lord rose from above the cherubim and moved to the threshold of the temple. The cloud filled the temple and the court was full of the radiance of the glory of the Lord. TRUTH: God’s glory fills up every single part of the place where it is. This includes our lives, too. If we are asking for the glory of the Lord to fill our life, then we will see it in every single part of our life. Are we allowing the glory of God to fill us and be seen in everything that we do? RESPONSE: Father, Your glory is amazing! Your…
