Day 136 - (Today’s Bible readings: Leviticus 8:1-21; Psalm 119:57-64; Mark 14:43–72)
The earth is filled with your love, Lord;
teach me your decrees. (Psalm 119:64 NIV)
David states a fact: The world is filled with God’s love. Can you see it?
He then asks: “teach me your decrees.” Obviously, the Lord teaches us through His Word, the Bible. He also teaches us through the circumstances we face in life.
● The challenges you are facing today are meant to pull you closer to God.
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28)
● Are you looking for God’s good in your life?
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11)
● It is important to learn that God has a plan for your life, now and eternally!
Lord, thank You for Your great love for me. Please teach me to trust in You and Your plan for my life. In Jesus’ saving name. Amen.
