Thoughts on Today's Verse...
God's promises, God's Scriptures, and God's clearest message of all, his Son (Hebrews 1:1-2), are God's truth. But only the last of these is not only truth, but the embodiment of grace, deliverance, love, salvation, power, and redemption: Jesus Christ our Lord. He is Immanuel, God with us (Matthew 1:23). He is the living embodiment, the enfleshment of holy God in human form, the living Word (John 1:14-18). God sanctifies us, makes us clean and holy, as we obey the Father's truth revealed in Scripture. Those Scriptures reveal other ways God has worked to sanctify us. God does sanctify us through the work of the Holy Spirit (Romans 15:16 & 1 Corinthians 6:11). God does sanctify us completely through the saving work of Jesus, the Son (1 Corinthians 1:2 & 1 Peter 1:2). As Jesus' disciples, we are blessed to experience God's words and Word in rich, meaningful ways. So, let's join Jesus and pray for each other to be sanctified by God's truth!
Mein Gebet
Oh Gott, verleihe mir eine heilige Leidenschaft, um deine Wahrheit zu erkennen und sie in Wort und Tat leben zu können. Möge ich dein “Wort” (Jesus) widerspiegeln, das deine Wahrheit verkündigte und lebte. Im Namen Jesu, deinem ultimativen Wort, bete ich. Amen.
My Prayer...
O Father, please give us a holy passion to know your truth and live it in both word and deed. Please have our lives reflect your Word, who both proclaimed and lived your truth. In the name of Jesus, your ultimate Word, we pray. Amen.
