Out of all the nations on this earth, the Lord your God chose you to be his own. You belong to the Lord, so don't behave like those who worship other gods.
1 THESSALONIANS 5:5 (CEV)
You belong to the light and live in the day. We don't live in the night or belong to the dark.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
God establishes his people with a unique identity and way of life.
DAILY FODDER
What stands in the way keeping you from living into who God called you to be? Are you certain that your response to the question goes to the core of the problem?
PRAYER
Jesus, you are the light of the world and you've called us to be your children of light. I confess that due to my carelessness and selfishness I dabble in darkness. During the moments when the dark fog encroaches remind me of my Christian identity and crank up the light that marks me as yours. I'm going to live in the light 24/7. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
We hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening there.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you would protect us from all forms of evil.
Amen!
