Devotion (Day 113 of Bible in one year):
As we navigate the challenges of life, we need wisdom, warning, and courage to stay on the right path. Proverbs 10:11-20 offers wisdom on the contrast between the righteous and the wicked, reminding us that our words and actions have consequences. The mouth of the righteous brings life, while the mouth of the wicked leads to violence and destruction.
In Luke 21:5-38, Jesus warns His disciples about the dangers of false teachers and the importance of being prepared for the challenges ahead. He encourages them to trust in God's sovereignty and to stay faithful, even in the face of persecution.
In Joshua 1 and 2, we see the transition of leadership from Moses to Joshua, and the courage and faith required to enter the Promised Land. Joshua is reminded to be strong and courageous, for God is with him, and Rahab's bravery and faith in God's promises lead to her salvation.
Today, as we face our own challenges and uncertainties, may we seek wisdom from God's Word, heed the warnings of Jesus, and find courage in the promises of God. May our words and actions bring life and hope to those around us, and may we trust in God's sovereignty and faithfulness.
Take a Moment:
- How can you apply the wisdom of Proverbs 10:11-20 to your relationships and conversations today?
- What warnings from Jesus in Luke 21:5-38 do you need to heed in your life?
- How can you demonstrate courage and faith like Joshua and Rahab in the face of challenges?
May God bless you with wisdom, warning, and courage in turbulent times.
