Believe God, for He is faithful. Luke 24

Print

This is our final day in the Gospel of Luke.  I have learned and relearned many truths that God is now leading me through.  How about you?  How has God spoken to you through His Word this month?

Scripture:
Luke 24.5b-6   "Why do you look for the living among the dead?  He is not here; He has risen!

Observation:
Other than the obvious, there is life after death for followers of Christ.  Death has been conquered; His resurrection gives us hope for the future.

Application:
I need to walk in God's promises and believe all He has told me in His Word, the Bible.  And to know this, I need to be: reading and applying His Word to my heart and life, spending time in prayer with him daily, and worshiping Him always.

Prayer:
"Show me your ways, O Lord,
teach me your paths;
guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my Savior,
and my hope is in you all day long.
Remember, O Lord, your great mercy and love,
for they are from of old.
Remember not the sins of my youth
and my rebellious ways;
according to your love remember me,
for you are good, O Lord."

Psalm 25.4-7

Blessings,

  3. One of the things I love is when we ask the Lord to search our hearts, and the verse you used is one of my favorite because it make me think on how He knows me so well better then I know myself. To me that's amazing

  5. I was just reading your verse...and thought...why do we go among people and expect to find perfection? We are dead in our sins, but alive in him! Thank you!!
