Bible Blog Post - 8/30/2020

Job 34:1-36:33

2 Corinthians 4:1-12

Psalm 44:1-8

Proverbs 22:10-12


God loves us so incredibly much that He has shown us His glory in the face of His son.  This love acts like a light in our lives driving out the darkness within and around us.  This does not mean that we won't encounter challenges throughout life, but it does mean that we will be better equipped to overcome them.  While our physical body will perish, whether we sin or not, life everlasting in the most glorious kingdom of all mankind is awaiting those who follow God's commands and spread the love and light of Jesus Christ.


As believers, we understand that sin is Satan's weapon and trap for us, but it's important to recognize that he only has as much power over our actions as we are willing to grant him.  In spiritual infancy, it is difficult to see how frequently Satan lures us in different directions, making choices that put the world before God; but as we become more spiritually mature, as we read God's Word daily and gain His wisdom, we are better able to identify when we are being led away from Him, and how to realign ourselves with what is true and what is right.  


Dear Lord, thank you for continuing to drive out the darkness in our hearts, and giving us the privilege of having the living Christ within us.  Please continue to speak to us and illuminate the path in which we are to follow.  Amen.
