“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.

“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.

“The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but he who heeds counsel is wise” (Proverbs 12:15, NKJV).
People who make their own decisions according to what they feel at the time will stumble through life making a series of bad choices. Conversely, those who seek godly counsel from others before making a decision are considered wise in God’s eyes.
March 24
“He who earnestly seeks good finds favor, but trouble will come to him who seeks evil” (Proverbs 11:27, NKJV).
God favors wise individuals who deliberately apply the principles of His Word to their lives, but not everyone has godly wisdom in this area. People who reject His instructions in favor of the world’s prevailing sentiment at the moment create their own problems in life.

“Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever. Many will be purified, made spotless and refined, but the wicked will continue to be wicked. None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand” (Daniel 12:3, 10, NIV).
In the end times, the core of believers who continue to obey God’s Word will shine brightly in a spiritually dark world like a thousand-watt spotlight on a hill, and those who lead others to Christ will be blessed. God’s children will understand the wisdom contained in the Word, but the Scriptures won’t make sense to many others.

“Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness” (Lamentations 3:22, 23, NKJV).
When we minister to the lost souls God puts in our path, we must remember that when we bring them His Word, it’s the only thing saving them from perishing. God shows compassion and mercy for His lost sheep through us, when we reach out to others in trouble. The Good Shepherd faithfully watches over all of His sheep, and won’t let the enemy snatch even one of them out of His hand.
March 21
“[My] brethren, if anyone among you strays from the Truth and falls into error and another [person] brings him back [to God], let the [latter] one be sure that whoever turns a sinner from his evil course will save [that one’s] soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins [procure the pardon of the many sins committed by the convert]” (James 5:19, 20, AMPC).
Forgetting about God’s Word and His plans for our lives puts us in danger of the spiritual death lurking everywhere in the world. As believers, we have a responsibility to watch out for each other and rescue each other as needed.
March 20
“For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 8:38, 39).
Life has a sneaky way of making us feel isolated and separated from our creator, but the Scriptures tell us God will never abandon us or leave us to fend for ourselves. No matter what comes at us or who sets themselves up against us, we’ll never be on our own. There’s no other love stronger or more powerful than the Father’s love.

“And he said, ‘My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest’” (Exodus 33:14).
God cares for us so much that He promises to accompany us on our journey through life, wherever we may go and in whatever situations we encounter. When we depend on Him, instead of on our own efforts, to safely deliver us, our spirits can rest in the knowledge that we’re well taken care of.
March 18
“For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them” (Matthew 18:20, NIV).
God has many ways of making His presence known. Jesus tells us that when we call on Him, He’ll be there. The manifestations of His presence don’t have to be loud or noisy; sometimes all we need to do is listen to that inner voice speaking to us, which is the Holy Spirit.

“The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing” (Zephaniah 3:17, NKJV).
God isn’t just some distant deity “out there” somewhere in the universe. He’s right here with us, and when we listen to His Spirit speaking to us, we find security, joy, and peace. He has promised to be with us always; we can depend on that promise, because His Word is truth.
