  • How to Sin Is to Forget God
    Oct 3 2025
    Why is disobeying God's Word called forgetting Him? Deuteronomy 8:11–20 looks forward to the evening sermon on the coming Lord's Day. In these ten verses of Holy Scripture, the Holy Spirit teaches us that disobeying God's Word is personal, proud, praising (wrongly), and pernicious (leading to destruction). Pastor's devotional centers on the solemn warning in Deuteronomy 8:11–20 to never forget YHWH God, especially in times of prosperity, as prosperity breeds pride and spiritual amnesia. It emphasizes that forgetting God is not merely a failure of memory but a personal, proud rejection of His identity as Creator, Redeemer, and Provider, who sustains His people through trials and blessings. The passage exposes the danger of attributing one's success to personal strength rather than recognizing that all wealth and provision come from God's faithful covenant-keeping character. This spiritual forgetfulness leads to idolatry, as people begin to worship the fruits of their labor instead of the Giver, placing themselves under divine judgment and the same fate as the nations destroyed for their unfaithfulness. The devotional calls for continual dependence on God's grace through Christ, not only for forgiveness of disobedience but for the transformative power to remain faithful, thankful, and ever-remembering of God's sovereign goodness.

  • The Griefs of the Godly
    Oct 2 2025
    What is it like for the faithful during wicked times? Micah 7:1–7 looks forward to the hearing of God's Word read in the public worship on the coming Lord's Day. In these seven verses of Holy Scripture, the Holy Spirit teaches us that, during wicked times, the faithful despair of men but trust in the Lord. Pastor's devotional draws from Micah 7:1–7 to illuminate the profound suffering of the godly in a corrupt world, where faithfulness is met with loneliness, oppression, and familial strife, as even those in positions of authority and kinship betray trust. It emphasizes that the godly person, though isolated and surrounded by deceit, is not without hope, for the true response to such pain is not retreat but a steadfast turn to Yahweh in faith, patience, and confident hope. The passage reveals that divine salvation is not found in human loyalty but in the sovereign, faithful God who hears and delivers, even in the darkest seasons. The passage calls believers to embrace the cost of holiness, recognizing that suffering for righteousness is not a sign of failure but a mark of faithful witness, and that ultimate comfort lies in waiting upon the God who saves. This message is both a sobering reality check and a sustaining encouragement, rooted in the certainty of God's presence and promise.

  • Christ's Emphasis on the Bible
    Oct 2 2025
    How does the Bible conclude? Revelation 22:18–21 looks forward to the hearing of God's Word read in the public worship on the coming Lord's Day. In these four verses of Holy Scripture, the Holy Spirit teaches us that the Bible concludes with an emphasis upon Christ's gracious use of the Bible. The final words of the Bible, found in Revelation 22:18–21, underscore the divine authority, completeness, and finality of Scripture, warning against adding to or subtracting from its message while emphasizing that God's revelation is fully given in the written word. The passage reveals that the ultimate emphasis of God's self-revelation is not in mystical experiences or visions, but in the faithful hearing and obedience to the written Word, which is the means by which Christ draws near and applies His salvation. Jesus, who testifies to these things, declares His imminent return not as a distant future event, but as a present, ongoing work of grace through the proclamation and reception of Scripture. The response of the Church—'Even so, come, Lord Jesus'—is not a plea for personal deliverance alone, but a humble embrace of Christ's grace, which empowers believers to live in accordance with His Word. The closing benediction, 'The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all,' affirms that obedience is not earned, but sustained by divine generosity, strength in weakness, and the Spirit's work in the heart of the believer. Thus, the final message of Scripture is both a solemn warning and a gracious invitation to trust in Christ's finished work, received through the hearing of His Word.
