Bible verses of the day 1 Corinthians 3:16 Dont you know that you yourselves are Gods temple and that Gods Spirit dwells in your midst?
Daily Devotional: No calling is too small by In Touch Ministries.
Yesterday, we read about Esther and how the Lord used her in a mighty way to deliver His people. If you caught yourself thinking, Well, I won’t be called to such a grand task, remember you don’t have to be a king or queen to have great influence.
Consider the story in today’s reading. A thousand years before the time of Esther, Pharaoh ordered all male Hebrew children in Egypt to be murdered at birth, but two midwives refused to comply with his decree. Even when they were questioned by Pharaoh—the powerful man considered by many to be divine—they continued saving lives because they feared the true God. And Scripture tells us that because of their bravery, the Lord “was good to the midwives, and the people multiplied, and became very mighty” (v. 20). Neither Shiphrah nor Puah was a queen, yet the Lord still used them to save an entire nation.
Embracing our respective callings may at times be scary but is always worth it. Each time we do, we’ll learn just how faithful our heavenly Father is. And that will build our trust in Him
for the next opportunity He gives us to step out in obedience.
15:1 Lord, who may dwell in your sacred tent? Who may live on your holy mountain?
15:2 The one whose walk is blameless, who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from their heart;
15:3 whose tongue utters no slander, who does no wrong to a neighbor, and casts no slur on others;
15:4 who despises a vile person but honors those who fear the Lord; who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and does not change their mind;
15:5 who lends money to the poor without interest; who does not accept a bribe against the innocent. Whoever does these things will never be shaken.
Summary; The psalm poses the question of “who may dwell with God?; or what it is like to have Our Heavenly Father’s spirit live with in us at this time, and who will walk right with Our Heavenly Father by spending time with him and having a very strong faith.
Closing Prayer; Heavenly Father we pray and thank you for the history of this lesson, as a reminder of what we are facing today. We are grateful there is peace and grace for all your children. We also pray you gain many more children. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
Prayer of Salvation: Which is how you ask to become a child of Our Heavenly Father. Lord Jesus, I confess my sins and ask for your forgiveness. Please come into my heart as my Lord and Savior. Take complete control of my life and help me to walk in Your footsteps daily by the power of the Holy Spirit. Thank you Lord for saving me and I know you will answer my prayers. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
