1 Corinthians 1:30 (NIV)

My Daily Verse

Here is your Verse of the Day:

1 Corinthians 1:30 (NIV). It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God -- that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption....... Thoughts on This Verse... God's grace has brought us into a saving relationship with Jesus as our Lord and Savior. As believers, we recognize that Jesus' sacrifice on the Cross was much more than a terrible miscarriage of justice and the murder of a good and decent man. Jesus is God's wisdom, a wisdom to convince us of his love. Jesus is our righteousness; taking our sins upon himself he made us righteous. Jesus is our ongoing holiness. His blood cleanses us at the beginning and continues to do so today. Jesus is our holiness; his death means our righteousness. Jesus is our ransom payment, redeeming us from sin and death. Jesus is our everything!

Walk In The Light

"Walk In The Light": 35 So Jesus said to them, 'The light is among you for a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. 36 While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light.' (John 12 : 35-36 - ESV) JC #JC2012 Find out more: http://www.GOD-N-YOU.info

Psalm 23:6 (NIV)

My Daily Verse

Here is your Verse of the Day:

Psalm 23:6 (NIV). Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever....... Thoughts on This Verse... God is our Shepherd. Our destiny is tied to his goodness and mercy which he longs to shower upon us until he brings us home to dwell with him forever.

Psalm 34:4 (NIV)

 

Here is your Verse of the Day:

Psalm 34:4 (NIV). I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears....... Thoughts on This Verse... Have you sought the LORD lately? Many of us made a commitment to turn all of our lives over to him last week; how have you done at that commitment? God promises wisdom to those who ask and don't doubt. Have you asked for wisdom recently? Let's join our hearts together, and with the Spirit's help, let's seek our Father so that we can honor and glorify him, finding our blessing in his presence.

Ephesians 6:10 (NIV)

 

My Daily Verse

Here is your Verse of the Day:

Ephesians 6:10 (NIV). Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power....... Thoughts on This Verse... Some of our strength to fight evil comes from our experiences in the past, from the encouragement of others, and from our knowledge of the truth in the Scriptures. Ultimately, however, our strength comes from God's mighty power. Paul uses his letter to the Ephesians to remind Christians that this power is what raised Jesus from the dead (1:19-20). Through that power in us, God can do much more than we can ask or imagine (3:20-21). Most important of all, as we put on our spiritual armor and dedicate ourselves to spiritual discipline, God blesses us with his power and might. We can be strong in God's mighty power.

Isaiah 2:22 (NIV)

My Daily Verse

Here is your Verse of the Day:

Isaiah 2:22 (NIV). Stop trusting in man, who has but a breath in his nostrils. Of what account is he?...... Thoughts on This Verse... ''If only I had a friend.''''If only my father hadn't left.''''If only she was more supportive.''''If only...'' People can fail us, but we still pin so many of our hopes on them. We are all fallible and mortal. So while we are involved in the lives of other people, let's also remember to keep our hopes connected to the Son of God, who''defeated death and brought immortality and life to light'' and who will''never leave or forsake'' us.

Romans 8:18 (NIV)

My Daily Verse

Here is your Verse of the Day:

Romans 8:18 (NIV). I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us....... Thoughts on This Verse... Paul knew hardship: take a look in 2 Corinthians 11:22-33 at the list of just some of the difficult challenges he had to face. His''present sufferings'' make most of our difficulties seem tame by comparison. However, Paul could say confidently that the glory he would have with Christ (cf. Col. 3:1-4) would be so incredible, with blessings so fantastic, that his hardships are minor in comparison. That glory will also be ours! Now isn't that fantastic news.

Psalm 118:22-24

"This is the day that the Lord has made": 

22 The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. 

 23 This is the LORD’s doing; it is marvelous in our eyes. 

24 This is the day that the LORD has made; 

let us rejoice and be glad in it. 

 (Psalm 118 : 22 - 24 - ESV)

Psalm 22:5 (NIV)

My Daily Verse

Here is your Verse of the Day:

Psalm 22:5 (NIV). They cried to you and were saved; in you they trusted and were not disappointed....... Thoughts on This Verse... This Psalm of despair, referred to by Jesus from the Cross, is also a Psalm of hope and faith. The history of God's faithfulness with his people Israel is an ongoing reminder that we can trust him to deliver us. While in our human reckoning of time God's answer may be slow in coming, his track record in history reminds us that he will answer, deliver, and bless his people in his time. In our worst of nightmares, we can be reminded that God is faithful and is attentive to our cries of despair, lament, grief, agony, and fear.

Philippians 1:29 (NIV)

My Daily Verse

Here is your Verse of the Day:

Philippians 1:29 (NIV). For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for him .......... Thoughts on This Verse... Suffer! How is suffering a privilege? It's not unless it is for Jesus. Remember how the early apostles were joyful because they were counted worthy to suffer for the name? (cf. Acts 5:41.) You see, he suffered for us so we could be saved. When we face suffering for the cause of Christ and his Kingdom, we help inspire others to live faithfully in adversity and show to all the genuineness of our faith. So few have anything worthy of their living, dying, or suffering. We have reason for all three: our lives will be caught up in Jesus' victory! (cf. Rom 8:32-39; 1 Cor. 15.)
