SCRIPTURE READINGS: Colossians 2:6-7
Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted, and built up in Him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.
Meditation for the Day
The walk of faith begins at salvation and continues until we reach heaven. As followers in Christ, we will stumble, but our focus should shift as we grow and mature. As we encounter the obstacles and storms around us, we can rest assured that as we look to Jesus, He will give us the strength we need. Rather than battling doubts about His power and care for me personally, am I thankful that Jesus loves me and is always faithful to His Word?
Lesson for the day
Colossians 2:6-7 encourages us to walk in Christ, rooted and built up in Him, and established in the faith. The meditation emphasizes:
- the ongoing journey of faith,
- acknowledges that followers of Christ may encounter stumbling blocks but should maintain a focus on Jesus rather than the challenges around them,
trusting in Jesus’ love and faithfulness to His Word as the key to living a life settled in the goodness and sufficiency, as we encounter the obstacles and storms of life. - one lesson in today’s mediation is the understanding of the transformative power of consistently centering one’s life around Jesus. It speaks to the resilience and perspective shift that can occur when facing uncertainties, unanswered prayers, and personal shortcomings while knowing God is good and faithful.
Prayer For The Day
I pray that I may continue to place trust in God’s sovereignty and love. I pray I may continue to walk with HIM in the development of a mature faith.
