“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” Hebrews 13:8

“Who became for us wisdom from God — and righteousness and sanctification and redemption — that, as it is written, ‘He who glories, let him glory in the LORD.'” 1 Corinthians 1:30-31

“Seventy weeks are determined for your people and for your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make an end of sins, to make reconciliation for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness.” Daniel 9:24

“In the LORD I have righteousness and strength.” Isaiah 45:24

In ourselves, we find nothing but misery. In Christ, we have all that is good. He is our all. He works and gives what is necessary to salvation; therefore we cannot and need not bring any meritorious claims of our own. But since He is made unto us wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, redemption, and our all, we may and must rely only on His name and draw everything from Him by the continual prayer of faith. And when, by a living faith in Christ, He becomes our all — the law, sin, and Satan lose their power to condemn us.

My soul, see to it that you make Jesus your all this day. Go to Him for all you need. Flee to Him from all you fear. And carry to Him all your cares, sorrows, griefs, and woes. He is all you could wish. He has all you can want. And He will give all that your circumstances really require. Take Him as God presents Him, and use Him as your experience demands.

Devotion by Karl Heinrich von Bogatzky (1690—1774)

Do not be anxious about anything. (Phil 4:6)

In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, we must rightly remember who is in control. Our God is sovereign over all things, including COVID-19. As Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892) said, “The sovereignty of God is a soft pillow on which weary people lay their heads.”

Remember also God’s gracious promise, and that it is true and He is faithful to keep it: Hebrews 13:5 …”I will never leave you, nor forsake you.” The next verse remind us of the power that comes in trusting God and how we can live: Hebrews 13:6 So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man [or COVID-19] shall do to me.

God loves us, and in Christ we find confidence and calm in times of uncertainty and trouble. When we trust in God, fear is replaced with faith, stress is replaced with strength, anxiety is gone and hope abounds, problems become opportunities, and we are able to receive the blessings God has for us in the midst of difficult circumstances. Turn to Jesus. He will lead you to the still waters and give rest for your troubled soul.

This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast…Hebrews 6:19

Be Ready Always...

to give a reason for the Hope that you have (1 Peter 3:15). When you can’t share the gospel with your words, share it by leaving tracts that tell people about God's grace.

When leaving a tract, always be diligent to pray about the short gospel message. Pray that it be found by someone who is in need of Jesus’ saving grace, and pray that the person will have a tender heart and open ears to receive the gift Jesus desires to give them.

By the power of the Holy Spirit, even a small tract can help in turning a broken sinner from darkness to light.
