“For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit” (Romans 8:3, 4). Christ accomplished what human effort could never achieve—freedom from sin’s power. Walking in love enables us to live out God’s righteousness, not by our strength but through His grace.

“Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law” (Romans 13:8). Love is the ultimate debt we continually owe others, a responsibility that never ends. By loving others, we live out the very heart of God’s New-Testament law of love, fulfilling its purpose in our relationships.
- January 27
“A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another” (John 13:34, 35). Jesus set the standard for love by His own example, calling us to a sacrificial and selfless love. Our witness to the world hinges on this love, which is the defining mark of true discipleship.

“Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him. By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous” (1 John 5:1-3). True love for God is expressed through obedience, which flows naturally from a transformed heart. His commands are life-giving, not oppressive, because they align us with His love and purpose.

“But you were unwilling to go up. You rebelled against the command of the LORD your God; you grumbled in your tents and said, ‘It is because the LORD hates us that he has brought us out of the land of Egypt to hand us over to the Amorites to destroy us” (Deuteronomy 1:26, 27). Fear and distrust can distort our view of God’s intentions, leading to rebellion and complaint. It’s therefore prudent to guard against interpreting challenges as evidence of God’s absence rather than opportunities to trust His promises.
- January 24
“We love him, because he first loved us... And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also” (1 John 4;19, 21). Love for God is inseparable from love for others. God’s initiating love calls us to reflect His character through tangible acts of love toward those around us.
- January 23
“And hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us” (Romans 5:5). Our hope in God is secure because it’s rooted in God’s love, not in our circumstances. The Holy Spirit’s presence assures us that His love is an active and sustaining force in our lives.

“Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers” (1 Timothy 1:9) The law exists to restrain sin, not for those who live righteously. As believers who yield to the prompting of the holy Spirit, we live beyond the need for legal constraint.
- January 21
“And you, who were dead in trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your flesh (your sensuality, your sinful carnal nature), [God] brought to life together with [Christ], having freely forgiven us all our transgressions, Having canceled and blotted out and wiped away the handwriting of the note (bond) with its legal decrees and demands which was in force and stood against us (hostile to us). This [note with its regulations, decrees, and demands] He set aside and cleared completely out of our way by nailing it to [His] cross. [God] disarmed the principalities and powers that were ranged against us and made a bold display and public example of them, in triumphing over them in Him and in it [the cross]” (Colossians 2:13-15, AMPC). Christ went to the cross to secure our complete forgiveness and freedom. Every accusation and spiritual opposition has been publicly defeated, leaving us victorious in Him.

“And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after; But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end” (Hebrews 3:5, 6). Under the law, Moses displayed complete faithfulness and obedience to God, yet he was still a servant. By contrast, under grace, we have a place in God’s household because we’re no longer servants, but children.

“Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged” (Colossians 3:21).
As parents, grandparents, and caregivers, we should raise the next generation to be pleasing to God; this includes everything we do as well as what we say. Our children are watching us closely, and we should be mindful of what they see when they look at us.

“My son, if your heart is wise, my heart will be glad, even mine; y es, my heart will rejoice when your lips speak right things” (Proverbs 23:15, 16, AMPC).
When parents take the time and make the effort to raise godly children, those children will ultimately be a blessing to the parents. The knowledge of the right thing to speak at the right time comes from the Holy Spirit.

“Even to your old age I am He, and even to hair white with age will I carry you. I have made, and I will bear; yes, I will carry and will save you” (Isaiah 46:4, AMPC).
We can trust God in every situation, knowing that He’ll stick by us through everything life throws at us; He walks with us in happy times as well as when life gets ugly. Not only will He never leave us, but when we can’t go another step, He’ll carry us.

“Weary not yourself to be rich; cease from your own [human] wisdom. Will you set your eyes upon wealth, when [suddenly] it is gone? For riches certainly make themselves wings, like an eagle that flies toward the heavens” (Proverbs 23:4, 5, AMPC).
God certainly wants prosperity and abundance for us, but seeking Him first over money keeps our priorities straight. Money is temporary, but God is forever. Trusting in Him instead of in our own wisdom opens the door to the financial blessings we want.
August 22
“Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it” (Colossians 2:15, NKJV).
Jesus came to earth to establish the covenant of grace, and to demonstrate to the world the law of love in a way that the Law of Moses never could. Wherever He went, He defeated the powers of darkness using God’s Word; as His children, we have the same power and authority.
August 21
“That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world” (Philippians 2:15).
Accepting God’s Word by faith and applying it to our lives makes us His children, whom He has sanctified and made holy. We’re made into new creatures, completely without sin in His eyes; we stand out like beacons in the dark.

“So we tell others about Christ, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all the wisdom God has given us. We want to present them to God, perfect in their relationship to Christ” (Colossians 1:28, NLT).
On our own, we’re imperfect human beings who struggle daily to do the right thing. But when Christ is in us and we’re in Christ, we’re perfected in Him. When religion tells us that we’re sinners, we can point to this Scripture to refute that claim.

“Thus saith the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go” (Isaiah 48:17).
When we seek God’s guidance in all areas of our life, we profit on every level. Applying His lessons to our life opens the door to financial blessings, as well as profitable results in all our endeavors.

“Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace” (Acts 18:9).
When God gives us a message, it’s something only we can hear because it’s directed specifically at us. If we respond to what He tells us, we’ll boldly speak the truth.
