“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.

“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.

“May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope” (Romans 15:13, AMPC).
A true relationship with God evokes such peace and joy that we can’t possibly understand the depths of it with our intellectual minds. The hope we find in Him has no doubt or uncertainty attached but is rooted in the knowledge of the truth of the gospel.

“Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another” (Ephesians 4:25).
As believers in the body of Christ, we’re to be truthful with each other in every situation. The devil will try to use lies and deception to divide us and bring us down, but when we rely on the Holy Spirit, we’re victorious against the attacks of the enemy.
February 7
“You can’t whitewash your sins and get by with it; you find mercy by admitting and leaving them” (Proverbs 28:13, MSG).
When we do something we know is wrong, we may be able to fool the world, and even ourselves for a while, but not God. There’s no hiding anything from Him because He can see straight into our hearts and minds. The wisest thing to do is honestly admit our mistake and move on.
February 6
“These are the things you shall do: Speak each man the truth to his neighbor; Give judgment in your gates for truth, justice, and peace; Let none of you think evil in your heart against your neighbor; And do not love a false oath. For all these are things that I hate,’ Says the Lord” (Zechariah 8:16, 17, NKJV).
Christians are on display, and the world is watching us. Our behavior should reflect the behavior of the Prince of Peace, who demonstrated by example how to embrace peace, truth, and justice.
February 5
“In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble” (Proverbs 15:6).
This was written back in the days of King Solomon, and it’s still true today. The righteous who live according to God’s standards are blessed with treasures that far exceed just money. When we see people who make money their god, we see the curses their choice brings on their lives.
February 4
“Put God in charge of your work, then what you’ve planned will take place” (Proverbs 16:3, MSG).
Work doesn’t have to feel like work when we let God lead us to the career path He wants for us. We see people every day who insist on making their own decisions on where to work and what to do, yet they struggle constantly. Asking for God’s guidance makes us twice as productive as everyone else, with no effort.
February 3
“Hot tempers start fights; a calm, cool spirit keeps the peace” (Proverbs 15:18, MSG).
The more we walk in God’s Word and let it sink into our psyche, the more it changes us from the inside out. Applying what we learn from the Scriptures teaches us self-control and renews our spirit. The Word transforms us into the likeness of Jesus, also known as the Prince of Peace.
February 2
“Oh, thank God—he’s so good! His love never runs out. All of you set free by God, tell the world! Tell how he freed you from oppression” (Psalm 107:1, 2, MSG).
Many of us have placed ourselves in bondage by accepting the world’s defeatist way of thinking. Jesus is the only one who can truly set us free from this type of attitude, transform our minds, and teach us true wisdom. He does this out of love for us.

“An intelligent person is always eager to take in more truth; fools feed on fast-food fads and fancies” (Proverbs 15:14, MSG).
True wisdom and intelligence come from God, not the world. As believers, we must be careful not to be influenced by the talk from “experts” designed merely to tickle our ears. This kind of talk changes daily based on what the world wants to hear at the moment, but it’s not based on God’s eternal truths.
