'REBORN!' — JOHN 1:12-13

But to all who believed [Jesus, the Word] and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. They are reborn — not with a physical birth resulting from human passion or plan, but a birth that comes from God. — John 1:12-13 NLT

Not everyone rejected Jesus. In fact, everyone who believed in him and accepted him was given an incredible gift: They were made children of God! The same is still true for us who believe and accept Jesus. This special gift is something that God alone can give. It is also something about which both Jesus and our author John will have more to say. Today, however, think about what it means to be God's child! Our Father paints the sunrise and displays his artistry again at sunset. He set the boundaries of the universe, which we cannot begin to see. He is the greatest Father anyone could ever have, and he chose us to be his children! Our adoption into the Father's family is something God did for us to include us as his children. We couldn't make ourselves part of God's family any more than children can accomplish their own birth or their adoption. We are God's children because of his love and grace and Jesus' sacrifice. In fact, Jesus came as the Father's Word of grace so we can be children of God, born from above!

Today's Prayer

Expand my heart, O God, so that I can truly show my love and appreciation to you for adopting me into your family. Open my mind, dear Father, so that I can understand your grace and mercy given me through Jesus. I praise you and thank you for making me your child! In the name of my brother and Savior, Jesus Christ, my Lord, I pray. Amen.

"The sweet psalmist of Israel." — 2 Samuel 23:1

Among all the saints whose lives are recorded in Holy Writ, David possesses an experience of the most striking, varied, and instructive character. In his history we meet with trials and temptations not to be discovered, as a whole, in other saints of ancient times, and hence he is all the more suggestive a type of our Lord. David knew the trials of all ranks and conditions of men. Kings have their troubles, and David wore a crown: the peasant has his cares, and David handled a shepherd's crook: the wanderer has many hardships, and David abode in the caves of Engedi: the captain has his difficulties, and David found the sons of Zeruiah too hard for him. The psalmist was also tried in his friends, his counsellor Ahithophel forsook him, "He that eateth bread with me, hath lifted up his heel against me." His worst foes were they of his own household: his children were his greatest affliction. The temptations of poverty and wealth, of honour and reproach, of health and weakness, all tried their power upon him. He had temptations from without to disturb his peace, and from within to mar his joy. David no sooner escaped from one trial than he fell into another; no sooner emerged from one season of despondency and alarm, than he was again brought into the lowest depths, and all God's waves and billows rolled over him. It is probably from this cause that David's psalms are so universally the delight of experienced Christians. Whatever our frame of mind, whether ecstasy or depression, David has exactly described our emotions. He was an able master of the human heart, because he had been tutored in the best of all schools-the school of heart-felt, personal experience. As we are instructed in the same school, as we grow matured in grace and in years, we increasingly appreciate David's psalms, and find them to be "green pastures." My soul, let David's experience cheer and counsel thee this day.

In all things, give thanks to God. 🙏

Even when you don’t understand the season, choose gratitude. Your circumstances may change, but God’s goodness remains constant. Learn to thank Him in every situation, knowing that He is still at work. 🔥✨

ALTAR CALL & PRAYER OF REPENTANCE

Church, judgment is real. Holiness is necessary. Repentance is urgent. But grace is still available and mercy is still flowing. Do not harden your heart. Run to Christ. Confess and receive forgiveness. Walk in newness of life. When we stand before the Righteous Judge, may we not be clothed in self-righteousness, but in “the righteousness from God that comes through faith in Jesus Christ” (Philippians 3:9).

If the Spirit has convicted you, do not resist. Come to Jesus now. Lay down every hidden sin and every excuse. His arms are open. His blood still cleanses.

*PRAYER*

Father, search us and know us. Forgive us for pride, hypocrisy, and disobedience. We place our confidence not in ourselves, but in the precious blood of Jesus. Wash us, make us new, and train us by Your Spirit to walk in holiness and love. Prepare us for the day we stand before You. In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.

JUDGES 16:28
It's never
too late for God to do mighty things through you.

🌼 *Topic*: Trust His Ways
*Scripture*: Isaiah 55:8 (RSV)
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, says the Lord."

God's wisdom is far above our understanding. Even when His plans seem unclear, we can trust that His ways are always perfect and for our good. Choose to rely on His wisdom rather than your own, knowing He sees the bigger picture.

*Declare*🤚🏼‼️
I trust God's perfect wisdom and willingly follow His ways above my own.

*Prayer*:
Father, help me to trust Your plans even when I do not understand them in Jesus' name, Amen.

When you GIVE Your life to God, Then God will give MORE Life to You!
