Isaiah 27 - Day 514 (link to today's reading)
Scripture: Isaiah 27:12-13 Commentary (melissabeaty.com): God's judgment..., is a way to keep us focused on that eternal promise. It keeps us humble enough to remember that this world and all that it offers will not endure forever. Like when gold is tried by fire, the heat brings to surface all the impurities of the metal, allowing them to be removed. Even so, we, when tried by God's fire, have the things of the world shown to us that we may remove them from our lives. Then, purified, we are acceptable before a holy God. That is perhaps the greatest blessing of all. Application: We are saved by grace and being purified by our circumstances. Lean on God and rely on His steadfastness to get you through whatever you're going through. And if you slip, stumble, and fall. Repent and pick yourself up and lean on God again. Prayer: Lord, help us overcome ourselves... Comments are closed.
